soetanoreoluwa: I also feel for Ighalo because he is a good nice guy but they all have to sacrifice for the team to shine. If it means sitting on the bench, he better does that. Finito. 2 Likes |

TheGoodJoe: If we consider the calibre of goalkeepers we had Uzoho is very average. Sorry to say. You are confident they save penalty, freekick, shots etcetera. But Uzoho is not good in all. I still don't think he is the best goalkeeper we have judging from the spot kicks and other factors. Hope he improves but before then I want to see the Brazilian and German breed Nigerian goalkeepers, even Alampasu before I conceed he is better. However, Rangers Bees of those days is not efulefu and even our league was not talent drained as we are having it now. 98% of Nigerian players played in the local league but very tangible fraction played abroad. So, it was normal to scout players from the local league. If not why you no put Lokosa for ya list ahead of Onyekuru and co? 1 Like |

I so much like the idea of NFF bringing ex internationals to speak to SE.. It crown it all AmajuPinnick also invited Senate president to speak to them... AmajuPinnick keep saying s. President should prophesy into their life cos he did it against CMR and he can do it again... Lol NFF deserve some accolades Remember we all made the suggestions of bringing ex internationals to talk to the players during the tournament... Here comes happening... Sometimes I wish our govt can be yielding to our feedback.... Nigeria would have been a better place #soarSuperEagles 2 Likes |

fabyom: Whenever Iceland play, their 330,000 population is often brought into discussion when they are compared with their opponents. For this, around 44million Argentines joined 186million Nigerians in supporting the Super Eagles. Messi and his team-mates may have watched the first five minutes through their fingers as Gylfi Sigurdsson twice tested 19-year-old Nigeria goalkeeper Francis Uzoho. Shortly before the break, Sigurdsson swung in a cross and all Alfred Finnbogason had to do was head it home but his timing was all wrong. At half-time, Iceland had managed seven shots with two on target. Nigeria had none. Source:http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/football/article-5874885/Nigeria-2-0-Iceland-Ahmed-Musa-helps-Argentina-out.html I never said on target, I said 7 to 8 shots.. Go check again bro |

Joebie: Mikel did very well. He played his role as the Captain excellently too. I particularly liked his delay tactic. Lol On my own, I wouldn't want us to score and defend either because doing so would give the Argies an edge. Instead, I'd rather we score, hold them off and tell all of them "WE DIE HERE!" |

TheGoodJoe: Oga! We didn't know what transpired behind the scene. Save me this downgrade of Ighalo. Did you hear what he told the coach? Oya! Tell me. For me, the coach must have told him to prepare when we still needed to seal the game and after Ahmed scored the second goal, he might have asked the coach... Do I still go in? Anything, can happen. This is not the first time we saw players doing that in such situation. Abeg. |

AIG07:I agree with what you said 100% i don't have a problem with ighalo as a player I think his abilities are good and unique to him but based on the style we play at the moment he may not be a perfect fit. Like you said countless times when we are on the counter and he had a chance too quickly pass the ball and break musa free he dwelt too long on the ball and we lost our attacking advantage because the icelandic defenders had gotten back. I think for ighalo to thrive he needs good supply from creative midfielders into the box to flourish but fast counter attacking football is not his forte. Plus I can't remember odion from his time with Watford scoring goals of a fast break |

do4luv14: Could be that they later moved to Ojo road. I stayed at Sari-Iganmu, my street was off Amuneke's. When i gained admission into tertiary institution I learnt they left the neighbourhood. I didn't actually probe much about where they had moved to. Talking about the Cat and Dog stance between the two schools, it wasnt there during our time. Although there were usually little pockets of battle for supremacy here and there. I learnt there was a serious War between the two school after we left and that even led to the fencing of the schools and separating their gates. Gaskiya were bragging about their Samson Siasia we were bragging about our Emmanuel Amuneke. You know Bina Ajuwa right? Bina and Kachi were my boys. I personally adviced our games master to elivate Bina to play with us in the senior team. He was in SS1 then. Bina became our best left winger while I played the Right wing. Then we likened him to Emma Amuneke. The same Bina later went to play for the Super Eagles. Kachi also made his debute under Christian Chukwu. |

Certitude:How? In 6 minutes of play, he created 2 chances. Statistically, how many did Kelechi create for all the much celebrated running and movement? You guessed it zero! (Although corner kicks and free kicks will be picked up by the computer as chance created of which I'm not talking about this, but chance created from open play). Stop aiding this mass hysterical effect. If Ighalo scored to put Nigeria through against Argentina, everybody will celebrate. So chill 2 Likes |

soetanoreoluwa: bro , dont add emotion to it , IF WE MUST WIN ROHR MUST PUT SENTIMENT ASIDE .when we clamour for victor Moses , to play as wing back or stay on the bench , people say , we want to put our Neymar on the bench ... football as gone past adding emotion ,every contribution of all the players matters . even if he stayed on the bench . i still want to see Moses plays for the wing back and Ighalo on the bench ... what we need against Agrentina is a quick pass style . that wrecked them in the friendly. |
