I’m just praying and hoping for two 3-0 wins against Libya during this our double header. We do that and we’d likely have punched our ticket to the next AFCON with two games to spare i.e. two games to experiment with the squad and formations.

I’d also like it if we could try a different formation outside of the 442 or 343. I’d like us to try either a 433 or 352.

If we plan on using Iwobi or Dele as an attacking MF, then we need two solid B2B midfielders near him to relieve him of defensive duties.

Why would he swap Nottingham for Roma, this is not the 1990s

Roma is a bigger club than NF at the moment. Leave am.

Roma has aspirations of playing in Europe year in year out. Whether UCL or EL.

NF has been in a perennial relegation battle since they came up from the championship.

Osimhen should take responsibility of his body at this stage, it's not every challenge that he should fly into, he's a grown man now which kain injuries be this one

This is honestly why I think many big clubs didn’t pay his expensive release clause. My guy just dey injure anyhow.

But I’m hearing Napoli are willing to drop his price to €75M - €81M come next year. I think that makes him a lot more palatable.

Europa conference league winners 3 seasons ago?
And even went on the play in the finals of the Europa League the next season

Lol and how many Roma players can you name compared to Nottingham players, playing outside England is a disadvantage to players because England gives you the exposure and money that the Italian league cannot give you, Aina impressed against Chelsea and Liverpool this season would still play against Man city, Arsenal, Tottenham etc you want to compare it to random conference league matches?

Nottingham have solidified their premier league status, with the way they are playing they are set for a 15 place finish and above, win against Liverpool draw against Chelsea with Aina starring in both of them, Ipswich, Southampton, Wolves, Everton, Leicester will be in the relegation battles

What are you even saying
I am sure you would have wanted Ademola Lookman to stay in Leicester City too
But we all know how the move to Atalanta really helped his career
If Lookman had stayed in Leicester City we won't be discussing About APOTY or ballon d'or nomination
Like I said Aina should run to Roma
One or two good seasons with Roma will see the Inters, Milans and Juventus coming for him

Leicester got relegated, Nottingham did not apples and Oranges, and yes I would prefer Lookman to perform in a mid table team like Brentford than Atalanta

This season, you said? That is how many games?
Bro, national team football is different from club football. We know what Iheanacho can offer this team. You cannot just throw him off the bus because he has had an average start to a new season.


The basis for national team selection is outstanding consistent top level 🎚️ performance in your club and league.

No European and or American country will select a player who is not IN-FORM irrespective of recent past performance in the national team.

😌However that's what we do in Nigeria consistently essentially enthroning mediocrity in player selection choosing experience over quality.

KC has played football ⚽ in Europe and in 11 seasons he only once in his entire career scored 12 league goals in 20/2021 for Leicester city. What is SHOCKING 😲 he has never scored more than 5 goals in a season in 10 seasond of league football.

That's the person some call here exceptional marksman 🎯 top striker.😳😳😳

In reality KC had been consistently poor.

Yes, a Ghanaian. Infact, as at three days ago, he (Kwesi Appiah) was still a member of Ghana Football Association Executive Council.

Here we go again.. the issue of Kalvin Philips getting called up by England despite barely playing anything at City came up sometimes ago, and you defended it with some nonsense about past forms and lack of options... so you just contradicted yourself...
