forgiveness: They can respect Milla. He deserves every respect he gets but we can not deny Eto'o's accomplishments as one of the prides of African football. |

Very sad news Victor Moses and Isaac Success have been ruled out with injury. Obaje and Chisom from Wikki and Rangers have been called as replacements. 1 Like |

TheGoodJoe: Fact is we have to give our greats credit for the work they did in Africa. At the time the doors were not truely open for our greats in Europe. Also our leagues were tougher at that time and any stat should be seen as legit. |

BascoVanVeli:This should serve as a lesson for future engagements. Rohr should always give a suplimentary list while naming his team. I hope Chisom is up for this. He was totally frightened and devastated by the nasty injury to Ifeanyi Egwim last night. When players witness such kind of leg breaks it affects their confidence level. Arsenal players surrendered the league as they couldn't handle the psychological trauma of the Ramsey/Eduardo's nasty leg breaks. I hope Chisom is in the right from of mind, if he's not, he will do well to excuse himself. 1 Like |

goldfish80: You've said it all... But the numbers of our players out cos of injuries is worrisome. Moses and Success...(hope these european clubs are not playing on our intelligence) with the two wingers out. We only hope musa(hmmm... He hasn't play for a while now) can up his game. I think we should Start with a 4-3-3 formation with Musa, Nacho and Ideye leading the attack. |
Re: "The Super Eagles Thread: The Road To AFCON 2023, 2025 And 2026 World Cup by goldfish80(m): 1:27pm On Oct 03, 2016 |
AIG07:Musa will definitely start, Ideye is experienced enough to lead the line. I expect Iwobi...... Ideye...... Musa .......... Iheanacho ...... Mikel ................... Onazi Elderson.... Troost.... Omeruo.... Shehu ....... Carl This game have a draw written all over it |

The competition is indeed high. I would still love Ejaria to play for us but if the kid's made his choice, then there's nothing we can do. There will always be quality talents who will stick with us no matter what. Nigeria can't run dry of top quality soccer talents. TheGoodJoe: 1 Like 1 Share |

Funny comment. I thought you were one who stood for facts from all perspectives.... ![]() But nope.... You go blind to certain facts and open your eyes to the ones that support your points. So what facts do you speak of coz I know you too well... You talk from both sides of your mouth. If Yekini had Kanu's allround achievements, That is the angle you would be arguing from. Haba!!!

TheGoodJoe: Iwobi was not really a highly rated prospect and that contributed to us getting him. The Okocha factor got him to the under 23s and super eagles. Before England knew it, the guy was a first team player at Arsenal. Even then, they still tried to get him at the last minute. |

BascoVanVeli: Sir no contradictions to the fact that our game needs to be cleaned up, but please the goalkeeper didn't touch Egwim. The leg had broken before the keeper's leg came and still didn't touch his fractured leg. I had same feeling while watching from the stands but after seeing the clip I felt sorry for the poor keeper. 1 Like |

I'm not as loquacious as you are.... Looollll You love to drag talks and arguments with headless statements. Too much talk is not needed. Facts and records are all over the place. Access them yourself and stop being lazy spilling sentimental comments all over the thread... Yekini is not Top 3 Nigerian legends of all time based on all parameters concerned. #fact. ![]() So deal with it... forgiveness: 2 Likes |

TheSuperNerd: Hmmm. Yekini can be ranked top 3 depending on the matrix, you are looking it. He is still our most prolific scorer. |

tbaba1234: That is based on looking at Yekini's records in Africa and counting out Kanu's influential works in Europe. When you look at accomplishments, Yekini is not in the top three. |

If I go by the matrix of "most prolific" then even Yakubu Aiyegbeni will make Top 3... ![]() Even Thompson Usiyen was prolific. So he would make top 5 then abi?? What do you say to that? ![]() tbaba1234: |

Noooo.... Even Thompson Usiyen was super prolific in the short period he featured for The Then, Green Eagles. So what about that? He has good records in the colors of Nigeria and in the league. Matrix using "most prolific" is just one of the many parameters to be considered on an all-round scale. Na wa ooo... Records are there and some people just wanna argue like argument is a profession.

Am I saying he isn't a legend. I call him "YE-KING" gosh!!! He's one of my soccer idols. He's super legendary. I am only saying Yekini is NOT in the Top 3 of Nigerian football's Greatest and finest of all time based on all parameters put together. That's my simple point. tbaba1234: 2 Likes |

I think Victor Moses's excuses are becoming unbearable. I don't wanna believe what my mind is telling me, sort of feigning these minor knocks only to play again for his club the next week. Am beginning to doubt his commitment. Maybe am being too quick to judge and conclude... Just can't keep it no more!!!!! |
