Even with our poor pre-tournament friendly games, most ESPN pundits are still picking us as the group D runners up. Read this: http://www.espn.com/soccer/fifa-world-cup/4/blog/post/3522997/world-cup-predictions-espn-fcs-experts-picks-for-champion-golden-ball-and-more O pari 1 Like |

Am I the only one who thinks Morocco will win Portugal? I don't trust Senegal, their group may be easy, but we have seen stronger contenders crash out of weaker groups. So, I personally think they will not make it out their group Egypt is heavily reliant on Salah, their biggest issue will be scoring without Salah Tunisia, those ones blow hot and cold. They won't make it out last last sha Nigeria, similar to Tunisia, dem no get direction. I am undecided where they stand, Might crash out or top the group 6 Likes |

edi287: From a relegated Stoke that's lookin at thier budget, even with the parachute money. Etebo is untested unproven and short it is more of a risk for Stoke. Has Etebo married a Portuguese wife or possibly got EU citizenship via Portugal ? Wondered how he got round the work permit rules. |

mazimee: Omeruo or Awaziem will be better. Ogu's slow off the blocks and that can be a problem when defending set pieces as you can easily lose your marker. It is not just about height. That is what happened against Czech republic. 3 Likes |

TheSuperNerd: Not to burst the bubble of excellence with regards to his talent. He is 19 if he was so exceptional and outstanding as you put it Villareal would have him in the first team. But what it says he is a work in progress hopefully we will see him in La Liga sooner than later. |

Morocco is my next favorite African team coming into this world cup after The Super Eagles obviously.... But aside that fact, I must say that Morocco got what it takes to cause some upset. My only problem is if they would be up to the task mentally as a team. If they can refuse to cower and be intimidated by Portugal and Spain, they might just pull off a major upset. They are pretty much a balanced side. Senegal... The whole football world see Senegal as the likeliest team from Africa that can make things happen and that is also because of their star names who play in Top sides in Europe like Sadio Mane (Liverpool), Kalidou Koulibaly (Napoli) and Keita Balde Diao (Monaco). Others like Gueye (Everton), Kouyate (West Ham), Salif Sane (Hannover), Diouf (Stoke), Ismaila Sarr (Rennes I think) also act to provide a quality supporting cast for their star men. But I am not too sure how they can handle Poland (lewandowski, Milik, Krychowiak, And co) and also Colombia led by James Rodriguez. Senegal will beat Japan but it may be kinda close. Nigeria.... Just wait till June 16. But remember, this is the Super Eagles that rises strongly with her back to the wall. LET THE MEMORIES OF HOW WE NAVIGATED AFRICA'S GROUP OF DEATH IN WC QUALIFYING (and Africa's toughest WCQ group in history) FLOW THROUGH THY MIND... Egypt.... Well.... Russia, Saudi Arabia and Uruguay. If Salah can shine, then maybe his anointing can flow to the rest of the pharoahs and make them soar, else they end up like their mummies... Wrapped, buried and booted out.. Lol Tunisia.... Already they will miss their main man in Youssef Msakni... His injury leaves Tunisia short in attack.. But in Wahbi Kazri they have a leader... But I am afraid their determined industry will amount to nothing against England's might and Belgium's absolute stardust. safarigirl: |

You obviously have again not been following this matter. Please try to read up first before commenting on matters as regards Non-English born/based Nigerian youngsters aiit... You have no idea when the kid even got into Villarreal youth system... Gosh! And he just recently turned 19 (on May 22). He joined them officially after his 18th birthday last year and have worked his way into reckoning in just one season (the 2017/2018 season) with Villarreal U-19, C and B sides... He has climbed up the levels and even gotten ahead of a Jack Ipalibo who was already at Villarreal before Chukwueze. Chukwueze just came off his first sesosn at Villarreal youth and is already in the news for big things mister. Don't you follow??!! If you do, you won't be making such an ignorant remark to subtly or "codedly" pour water on the lad's beautiful rise and talents. And why emboldening the part that said "half of europe is watching the lad"... You think that is a lie? Hahahahaha... You really need to loosen up a bit Sir... There is a whole lotta quality outside English shores trust me... Even better in several quarters. Lol komekn: 4 Likes |

Martz101:I think the coach playing Ogu in defence is for tactical flexibility. It gives him the ability to switch from 352 to 433 and or 451 in play. Rohr has some aces in his sleeve. Let's just wait and see. 1 Like |

BascoVanVeli: Is that what you think Do you know the earthquakes that will reverberate through a EPL club if they loose to a lower league club. Sorry Sir I can assure you big clubs take these games VERY SERIOUS. When Manchester United lost to MK Dons that was literally the end of Van Goal. To buttress my point see link below. https://www.independent.co.uk/sport/football/premier-league/louis-van-gaal-sacked-the-worst-defeats-of-the-manchester-united-managers-old-trafford-career-a7043411.html |

andrew444: If that's your idea of sarcasm then it fails comprehensively. First of all we are talking about Villareal B team which is essentially thier U21 team. You propose that Villareal B will beat league one teams. A feat that even the first team will have to put in a good performance to achieve. Forget about technical football they would struggle badly with the physicality and intensity as well as speed. |

forgiveness: Biggest thing in football is OPPORTUNITY not necessarily ability. Then you have the politics of football which is simply CORRUPTION. People have very short memories in football not surprising it's a short term career. Onazi should have striked when the Iron was Hot. He didn't now he is in Turkey. When Omeruo came back to Chelsea he was left to train with the U18. Do you really think Chelsea even remember his name. Kayode is in BEST place for upward progression Shaktar is a great airport for outstanding football careers to TAKE OFF. Azeez needs a better Agent in my opinion. 1 Like |
