"Who freaking cares??"

Oga, if you have 2 children a boy and a girl that are both in S.S.3 and are due to take S.S.C.E exams, you will say let one of them do it while the other one should repeat the class right ??

Remember that FIFA gives out funding for this programs to ooo. Plus nobody is saying anything about feminism here, all I am saying is that in this age, it will be more profitable to manage these set of female soccer stars, brand them and sell them to Nigerians and Africa at large. NFF is a corporation, corporations are created to manage multiple issues at the same time, they are paying a foreign coach to coach these girls and I am sure he is getting paid in $US, so if you believe the best NFF can do is what they are presently doing concerning female soccer, I pray nobody hires you to manage a serious business/organization, while also praying for the female members of your family.

TheSuperNerd:
And it was for an own goal he scored in one of the games that played a huge part. And I grew up hearing every goal scored against your own team as "Escobar" when we dey play monkey posts or big posts

Sad history shaa

barackodam:
Serbia go into this encounter as underdogs with NairaBet who price them at (2.70).
Nigeria are (2.60) to claim victory and a draw is a 3.15 play according to the same firm.


From goal......

So Nigeria are favourites

Dedebanky85:
Why do I think Moses kills our cohesive team work. If Vic Moses was in the field against Argentina in the second half we would never have seen those fluent moves. I know he can change a game but sometimes he gotta be more of a team player. Quick releases, one-twos, and faster passes. If he starts doing these things in addition to his dribblings he'd be phenomenal in Russia.

tbaba1234:
Kelechi Iheanacho ruled out of the Serbia game with a fractured right hand....

TheSuperNerd:
Yes, yes... I didnt want to say this but I know there will be just one or maybe two who liked for "appreciation sakes" but truthfully speaking, that is not the case for all remaining likes.

I repeat... No player in the GWG has gotten that much likes for an injury news on GWG duty. All five likes most certainly cannot be just in appreciation of Tbaba's good works on the news now is it?

Lol.... I've been so long on this thread to read between the lines. Had Chief Icon4s not mentioned it, believe me, we would not even be talking about it right now... But when two eyes like Him and me notice this.... And he is the one to point it out and not me... Then this is not air talk. But I will let it lie... My message is already gotten across.

There is nothing to like on "five counts" or more on a player's injury while on GWG duty. And all five certainly cannot be "in appreciation" coz I know all will wanna hide under that umbrella whereas it is only one or two that belong there.

Martz101:


I am sorry to disagree with all of you, his review is spot on, Nacho was a flop, we still need to see more of Ebuehi to ascertain his better than shehu, though I know he will pass.

for Leon He was a little harsh on him but Leon has not been that good, we close our eyes to it, troost was doing all the interception and Leon was out of position, a moniker even said Leon played in the LB and another said we played a 352 formation. I know his fan favourite but he was obviously not at par with Ekong

realpoacher:
Today is another big day in our world Cup story, as for me, our world cup has started and I will bask in the Euphoria of our victories. I will savour every minute of our winnings as tomorrow is not guaranteed!!!

I refused to accept that we lose now and win tomorrow. I refuse to accept that we have lose today so that we can win tomorrow, when in actual sense no one amongst us here have the power to control tomorrow.

Winning instead we must because we stand awhole lot to gain if we win than when we lose.

Winning today will boost our insulting current FIFA rankings from 52 to 41

Winning today will boost the confidence our boys further and sell their image faster in the international market and their market ratings will keep soaring high, and we need that because we need them to play at the biggest clubs.

So to me,.......


WINNING IS EVERYTHING!!!!!!

Go boys and do us Proud!!

Football is not static and neither are football players. Some improve on upwards spiral and some are on a continous downward spiral.

Don't use old glories or past failings to ascertain a player. The reality is that OBAGOAL is currently the most consistent striker we have over the past 10 years.

Everywhere he has been whatever the league he has been outstanding.

Currently with better statistics than both KC and Ighalo. That's the reality. Unless you are prejudiced which many are then you can not deny his quality.

If we can invite Ajayi then why not Obagoal.

The relevant question is what's his current level of performance❓ Not what happened a decade ago.

There are so many players that have had resurgences in thier careers much later on. He is not as old as many top players yet we dismissed him for players who may never ever reach the level he has.

Firstly, he is certainly not too old after all is he older than Robben Arjen, Jermain Defoe, Danny Alves, Evra, Iniesta, Mascherano and yes even Christiano Ronaldo are all in the same range or older.

So what's the biggie Or just plain bad belle.

Consider the depth of experience and technical know how that OBAGOAL brings to the table. He could be the missing quality link.

Ahmed Musa

Icon4s:


You got 5likes for this comment. I wonder what is to be liked about the comment.

Kog45:
Chief icon4s you forget how some rejoiced over Elderson.

Oh what of Ezenwa injury against Sudan

What of happiness that trailed Onazi injury.

Hope you remember how Akpeyi was receiving curses

So Iheanacho injury situation posted by tbaba1234 and the five likes shouldn't be an issue,part of craziness here

Anyhow bros,craziness full for here and we are all part it and make we dey enjoy it.

chiscodedon:

It's bizarre you keep mentioning Aluko, go check his files, he was part of success story of hull city coming to EPL, but what happened..? They dropped him, he went to Fulham, what happened again? He was dropped... Now plays for Bolton or even reading.... If he was that good you claim, many clubs should have been coming for him..
Good players even expecting to SE after world Cup are the likes of young and skillful Kalu and Esiti of Gent... Not Aluko.. He has tried

Martz101:


Are you Martins agent?

gbosaa:



The likes on tbaba1234’s message about Iheanacho’s injury might be to appreciate his letting them know rather than a celebration or liking of Iheanacho’s fracture. I don’t think it should all be read negatively.

Joebie:
Asking of evidence? Read the modified again slowly.

nelszx:


Another false 9 formation would like to see how effective it'd be
Good to see Ebuehi start today, very underrated lad, Ogu to replace Onazi at any point in the game, Ahmed Musa as a SS/CAM well only time will tell though he played such similar role against Argentina after Iheanacho had been subbed off.
All in all I just wish the team best of performance

Icon4s:
For those interested in Jerseymatics :

Today is Nigeria(Home) Vs Serbia (Away).

What will both teams wear tonight?


We all know our home and away jerseys.

The Serbian Home Jersey is all Red while the away Jersey is all white.

My prediction: Being the home team in the fixture, Nigeria wears its much talked about and marketed Light green and white Jerseys. Serbia being the away team has all white as its away jersey but because Nigeria has plenty of white in its home jerseys, Serbia wears the all Red.

TheSuperNerd oya soup go done tonight.

Modified..... Sir icon4s likely the likes is for the news and not to mock Nacho.

Kog45:
Uzoho........Good to see him in action again and better for his confidence

Ebuehi...........He is starting for the first time and let's see may be he would be a better option than Shehu

Balogun.........Good to see him again with Troost-Ekong.

Ekong........Another solid performance expected with Balogun

Idowu............Seems Echijele is losing out though Idowu had average game against Poland,Elderson couldn't have done better.

Onazi...........Good to be back in the starting line up and let's see what he has to offer.

Ndidi........Another solid performance is loading.

Joel Obi.......Gradually integrating himself into the team,hope to see him doing Mikel for us today

Victor Moses.......had a good match against Poland but need to play more with the team

Alex Iwobi.......not convincing performance against Poland but hope to see improve Alex today,need to be consistent.

Ahmed Musa......He must have showed class in training for him to start ahead of Ighalo.Truly Ighalo and Nacho were below par against Poland.

Remarks......The team is evolving with starting team emerging,just few changes from Poland match with Onazi,Ebuehi and Musa coming in for injured Nacho,Shehu and Ighalo respectively.

It seems Ezenwa has lost out in competing for number one shirt cos Rohr has more trust in young Uzoho.

Also am seeing Echijele not making it cos having him on the bench doesn't add any value to the team.Let's see how Elderson react in subsequent friendlies.

With Musa coming in as a leading attacker meaning Rohr wasn't satisfied with Ighalo and Nacho though injury ruled him out,meaning hope for the likes of Oyekwuru,Ideye,Kayode,Samuel Kalu,Olayinka etc.

The team is getting clearer and any player dropped from this 28 man list should forget WC.

Just commenting for "appreciation sakes"

forgiveness:


What is Yari.ba? Do you mean Yoruba?

Is Komekn Yari.ba? Smh

I know this moniker. You know what I mean.

Dedebanky85:
This goes to show that Rohr is a very conservative coach. He doesn't just change his teams for the mere fact of changing it. That's why i fear for Aina breaking in. Now he's trusting Idowu, it's gonna be tough for Aina. I even thought an Awaziem or Omeruo would have started in place of Balogun. Well things could still change in 7hrs before the official starting list is out but I doubt it as he tends to start with his last training team.
I just feel for Aina and the other CBs.
