Abeg which Nigerian site is offering this type of market, this can be a money making opportunity. A big win win(Nigeria champ. and I smile to the bank too) situation.

EagleScribes:
Some times, I can't help but shake my head for this country. With the overwhelming success of this current U20 team, I am not sure if there are plans and programmes to ensure continuity of age-grade standards such as this.

I don't think our present U17 team can live up to the standards set by this U20 team when the golden eaglets are graduated.

I am not sure if we will have a coaching team as honest and professional as the Manu Garba-led team.

As we salivate to savour the success of this U20 team, let us spare some thoughts for the bleak U17 team and next generation of U20s. Let us pray the joy we have now is sustained

As we enjoy the present, let's not forget the future

achimotan:


It would be nice though.But am yet to see the extra factor in this Ghanaian squad. Am a Ghanaian by the way

safarigirl:
how many goals has he scored? Abi no be human beings dey score against those ones? Are they God?

Even the technicality of Iheanacho's goals beats whatever Success does.

He played against Messi, Ramos, Pique.....that makes him better than who? Was Messi not scoring awesome goals against the greats when he started? Did any of the guys Isaac played against ever come out to say "The boy is good"?

Please don't give me that line of who he played against. Tell me how many awesome goals he scored whether against Messi or some deadbeats afterall Granada only played Barca twice the entire season and Isaac was in Team B at a point

mikron:
that's true bro, coincidentally the two competitions are being played the same month. We re kickstarting our campaign on June 1st while the female version starts June 6th . both competition will run concurrently. Naija till I rot

lakesidepapa:


Ok good of them, hope local TV stations like ait, silverbird and co will air the tournament, especially FE matches

Daninya11:


No bro. .
You and I are suffering from NL sports thread syndrome..
Lolxxxxx..

kiddiezil:
not only u o.....though am new on this thread but before I registered I always come around....my first comment though

LeeCodeman:


When I first saw the goal, my mouth was left ajar. It is a goal of pure class. Messi scores that goal and the internet will be on fire. The close control, precise run, quick jump, positional awareness and cool placement even while being chased by a myriad of defenders screams TECHNICAL BRILLIANCE. It's football intelligence at its peak.

mikron:
the Ghanaian team is very good too. Aside naija I will be rooting for the black satellites. West Africa all the way. I don't know about Senegal and Mali

safarigirl:
true. We may not see such brilliance in a couple of years, so we really should savour this team

TheSuperNerd:



Of course the Ghanaians are another team to watch out for at NZ. The likes of Cagliari's Godfred Donsah, Man city's Yaw Yeboah and Granada's Clifford Aboagye will light up the tournament also.
The senegalese got a few good talents too in Sidy Sarr and Ibrahim wadji. The Malians though in a tough group are no pushovers also.
GO GO GO AFRICA! ! !

1. CHIDERA EZEH
2. WILFRED NDIDI
3. TAIWO AWONIYI
4. SUCESS ISAAC.

And if u re coach you'd rate a player who has featured in one of the best league in the world below sum1 who has only featured. For an academy?miss I'm sorry to say this again this thing of urx is now more than just making a point, iheanacho might be better and has brighter future ahead buh truth be told for now above him

youtube doesn't play on my fone,any other link I could watch it from?

safarigirl:
funny, Man City rarely acknowledges this guy. On articles of their players in New Zealand, they only mention Rony Lopes of Portugal, Kelechi and Nwakali(I'm starting to think they only remember him cuz he's Kelechi's compatriot))

They just don't remember him. He's like an after-thought

Remember, Man City have an academy in Ghana where they keep rising African talcents. That was the place Man City wanted to send Nacho but he was too impressive in training and he was sent to Barcelona.

So Yeboah was a City player I think since the time of Mancini when the African project started but he was not in England in the Campus. They visit and train with their foreign peers and go back.

Yeboah's exceptional performance in Ghana made Man City bring him officially to the Etihad Campus. With time, the fans will know him.

TheSuperNerd:



Well, u're rite. He's a fine talent but Nacho, Nwakali and Lopes are way ahead... I think dat shows the talents indepth at man city youth teams. Besides, I think the lad deserves some publicity as Ayc mvp... Dont u think? *winks*

safarigirl:
it's not just the fans I speak of. Even their official twitter handle. I just uploaded an example of what I meant on the post you quoted. If you would just go back and see it.....

safarigirl:
....until someone explains to me how he won MVP at AYC, no, I do not think he deserves publicity

TheGoodJoe:


The flying Eagles were almost flawless in the competition especially with players like Awoniyi, Musa, Nwobodo putting impressive displays. For a player like Yeboah receiving the best player ahead of these special flying eagles shows he is fantastic.

It is just a testament of the Youth Structure of Man City.
