You ever heard of coin tossing?

phase1:
African teams need to go back to the drawing board and give their hungry home based players a chance at international competitions.

Most of their Europe-based players are not usually hungry and the responsibility to perform is too huge for them. The motivation is no longer there. They've made too much money which their ultimate aim in life. There lifelong needs have been met.

Africans performed better at the world stage when they went with majorly home-based hungry players.

Stop taking contented europe based players to the world cup. Take players that are hungry and angry. They are in your local leagues. Hunger is a great motivator. Use it to your advantage.

Most players with fat bank accounts in Europe are no longer playing for glory just for fun and end up breaking hearts of there countrymen back home.

rentAcock:


wow this is sad. very sad. Morocco, Nigeria and Senegal deserve to be in the round of 16.

mainkendo:
Senegal are through to round of 16.

baum1:


Right

Chief, we must work with evidence-based conclusions. Based on this, provide evidence on how African players were the poorest paid.

Otherwise, how can I agree with you when there is no empirical evidence?

gentlegenius:

Pls explain this fair play thing... I don't get it.

imperiouxx:


Yea. I think the once used that for a Nigerian team but I can't remember the age bracket.

imperiouxx:


That's the worst anyone could have ever imagined

mavinc4u:


It is only Senegal that deserves to be there.

Maket:

No, Poland is winning Japan. Head to head rule will make them qualify

scantee:

Bro it hurts, why not give extra time..?

quickly:
Why was Mané penalty cancelled

Vivipop:
Proudly one

phase1:


I don't need much to prove to you. I have given you historical inferences to prove that European clubs hardly paid Africans poorly but better than what they earn at home.

Yekini was an example. People who were not born yesterday are aware of this. You can make your findings.

okitiomas:
you just said my mind how can you be carrying players that are being benched in the so called big teams all because they play in europe i belive if we take our home grown talents to the world cup we gonna do well players who are hungry for success will deliver

KoiceReloaded:
Yay!! Senegal is out! I'm so happy! Good job, Colombia, good job.

oooduancalmdown:
To be sincere, that Mane of a guy play nonsense. Always diving and looking for penalty. He seemed to have forgotten that there is VAR. He should have scored when those opportunities came

oooduancalmdown:

You are right but hope you know most of these foreign based players once played for local leagues? Yes you can train the local ones to represent you in the world cup, but what if they get the fame and foreign clubs want to buy them, do your country have enough funds to keep them in the local clubs? Will these players refuse a weekly wage of fifty to hundred thousand pounds( 35 million naira) weekly and 120million monthly pay from an European club to the 250 thousand naira a month you pay them in the local league? I don't think they will. The problem is deeper than you think

kenddys:

Egypt that has the best league in Africa and they took mostly home based players how many matches did they win ehn

phase1:


The truth is not all African players are demotivated when earn huge pays in Europe.
But the World cup is not a tournament only professionals but for even hungry amateurs too.

Did you know that one of the south korean players who defeated Germany is a policeman by profession.

My submission is simple. Hunger for glory must be Number pre-requisite for taking any player to the world not the leagues where they play in Europe. No matter how good a player is, if he is not motivated he won't deliver. Most Europe based players are not hungry.

I read an interview Romelu lukaku granted where he said that he became a deadly striker because his mother could only afford them bread bought on credit. Whenever he goes on the field to play in Belgium as a youth he remembers the rats running around in their house, the lack of food at home, the discrimination against him as a black man he becomes angry, fights and scores hat tricks.

That's a proper case of hunger as a motivator. Iheanacho was the deadliest youth striker in the world as a young hungry boy just a few years ago, he has made money today and the source of motivation is no longer there. He can't even properly lift his fattened laps to kick the ball.

Let look for hungry boys who want to shine. There source of motivation is still there, we should use their hunger to our advantage.

resurgent2019:


Please stop looking for untenable excuses to justify mediocrity. The senegalese players did not take their chances and they lost.

Leave the White man alone, they are not responsible for the black man's failure!


Which kind non sense be this?

baum1:


Lol. I like your one example.

They have always underperformed at world cup.

And I hear their league is the best in Africa, their players hardly go abroad to play.

Those clamoring for home based people only, what do you have to say about Egypt?

They make me laugh

lilfreezy:
France seems to be the only African team that made it through

baum1:


Do you agree that such hungry boys can be found anywhere and that they are not only 'home-based' as some are claiming?

tgmservice:
u illiterate b4 you start screaming check FIFA rules b4 the tornament began.

It stated disciplinary record will be use to seperate teams if there was a tie in points and goals.

Japan has 4 yellow cards

and Senegal has 6
