darkelf: Same here. As enthusiastic as I am about national team football, I'm finding it very difficult to raise my hope. I keep seeing a repeat of 2002 - 1 point in 3 matches! But I'm also hoping for some miracle. 1 Like 1 Share |

asha80: Fair enough. That's the only difference. Other than that, this team and 2002 team have many things in common - too many below average players. I'm hoping for a different outcome from 2002 despite the stark similarities. |

Raheem Sterling On Why The Clash With Super Eagles Won’t Be Friendly Manchester City star, Raheem Sterling, has commented on the upcoming friendly between England and Nigeria at Wembley on June 2, 2018. Sterling stated that the match won’t be friendly when the Three Lions face Gernot Rohr’s men this Saturday. According to him, both sides are formidable opponents and highly physical. ”I probably got more ticket requests than I have had in any game at Wembley, that’s for sure,” Sterling told Extratimesoccerlive ”I think we got a great physical team but I know for the fact that the Nigerian team will be as physical as us and technical as us but it’s going to be a game of the day. ”It is a friendly but I don’t think it would be a friendly game because both teams are really going to get prepared and be ready.” England coach, Gareth Southgate and Super Eagles manager, Gernot Rohr are using the friendly game to prepare their teams for next month’s World Cup in Russia. 1 Like |

![]() NIGERIA HANDS CARL IKEME HONORARY WORLD CUP SPOT THE NIGERIAN FOOTBALL FEDERATION HAS HANDED GOALKEEPER CARL IKEME AN HONORARY SPOT AT THE 2018 FIFA WORLD CUP IN RUSSIA. The Nigerian Football Federation has handed goalkeeper Carl Ikeme an honorary spot at the 2018 FIFA World Cup in Russia. The Super Eagles and Wolverhampton Wanderers keeper is on the sidelines as he fights cancer and has not played this season due to treatment. Ikeme helped Gernot Rohr’s men qualify for Russia and is now their 24th man ahead of the highly anticipated global showpiece. The Super Eagles, who face England in a Wembley friendly on Saturday, have carried on a tradition of selecting a player for a 24th squad place. "Until the last moment, there is a possibility of bringing in these players,” said Rohr. “Carl Ikeme will be our 24th player to the World Cup.” Meanwhile, the 31-year-old net minder has been kept in prayers by Wolves’ supporters as they managed to clinch promotion to the English Premier League after winning the English Championship title. The West Africans will face Croatia on June 16 in their opening Group D match. Their second one is against Iceland on June 22 and they will wrap up against Argentina four days later. 1 Like |

The funny thing is Egbon.... You don't know how to handle the truth.... And it is really not your style to state the truth as it is. If you don't twist things a bit... You are not done with your presentation. Okay... I just walked in now and I am saying this... I must prove that what I say is true right? About you twisting the truth? Okay... We will have case study one. Meanwhile... As for the stats you and Realpoacher reeled out... Hahahahahahahahaha... I was just laughing when I saw both yours and his. You both are leaving out some very deep details which Soccer way or Wikipedia won't show us all. Thank goodness for Whoscored and Transfermrkt ![]() And uhmmm... So I've just read the reply you gave my post and I must sincerely say that you didn't make a lot of sense as regards the impact factor. You were just huffing and puffing Egbon. I will respond to it as time goes when I am fully back but not by quoting that long post of yours which saw you squeezing out things to say so as to sound valid.. But Right now... This is just a little check-in. And I mentioned Onuachu to show you that your argument with Kayode is invalid. Onuachu did better than Kayode this past season yet is in Denmark, a league less than Ukraine. But as for Kayode... He didn't even do better than Ighalo, Simy, and Nacho. And worse he is in a league lower than they all. So what is the fuss with Kayode tori olorun? Your noise on this kayode issue is deafening and with facts shall it be silenced. First I shall show your first lie... Debunk it if you can.... ![]() Check my next post. forgiveness: |

Mujtahida: Have you forgotten the allegations levied against me when I claimed Nwakali was on the 35 man list? I have to make it clear that Rohr's acknowledgement has vindicated me. That's all. Why are dey trying hard to hid that fact and go ahead to accuse me of the same allegation that I have grounds to base it? It shows they are also part of the corruption and they enjoy it as long it favors them. Two faced double standard fellows I call them. |

OMANBALA1: FIFA should allow Nigeria to go with 30 players. Nigeria should be allowed to field 12 men against Croatia and Argentina but that wont stop the massacre that will happen. Can Mikel and any of those wack midfielders match Modric and Rakitic in the midfield? Can your full backs stop Perisic? Can your central defenders stop Manzukic? Nigeria dont know what awaits them in Russia. You people have been mouthing off against England. On 2nd of june, you arrogant ignoramuses will be shut up. Rashford, Sterling and Kane will eat you for dinner. |

Jarus:And it could also be one of our strongest squads ever. (based on merit, talent, ambition, and determination) And the 'toughness' of the group could even eventually turn out to be only on paper if Rohr leads his pack to Russia with the right tactics and his thinking cap firmly placed in his bag of ideas. If teams like Peru, Iceland can hand Croatia defeat. If Mexico, though not a small team could pummel Iceland 3-0, Then I'm confident. It should be easy for anyone to observe that Whenever we have Mikel, Moses, Ndidi, Ighalo, and probably our CB duos, Troost and Balogun, other highly telnted alternates on the bench, we rarely struggle. In fact, we generate goals. If we could squeeze defeat down the throats if Poland in their own homeland, and the highly rated Albiceleste (Argentina), then I'm confident. 4 Likes 1 Share |

Youre guilty of what you're preaching. You are trying to belittle Echiejile to hype Aina. Funny enough, no one has been able to say how many goals came through the LB all the while Echiejile mounted that position during qualifiers. Even agaunst9 Congo, he didn't do bad either. As for the tackle, hows that a big deal when we all saw onazi doing same in the middle? My point? The coaching crew should be allowed to do their job, whoever they pick, its their responsibility.

tbaba1234:Youre being sensational. Osas was never as bad as youre projecting him, not in a million years. I wacthed all the Chan games and tactically, that team relied heavily o. The influence of Osas on the right. The team got so fat thanks ti his assists against Sudan and Libya and multiple attacks were launched from his part of the pitch. Can you list Aina's best qualities as a full back? Please, dont tell me he's good going forward, I saw his struggle to do basic things like trapping and simple ball control against Algeria and Congo. In Blida, attacks came to a halt whenever his part of the pitch was used to build momentum. I can't remember how many times he was full of apologies to his teammates for his failure to control the ball properly. The less said about Congo, the better. Ola might make the team on sentiments but on merit, he should be dropped. |
