If osimhen is in team of the week and his fellow contenders for player of the month I.e slimani and the other guy didn't make player of the week, does that mean osimhen is likely to win the player of the month?

The defender Pallios made team of the week

The guy must have been a Van diyk to be contender for player of the month

It's TOTW sir, not TOTM. That they didn't perform last weekend doesn't mean they hadn't been performing the weeks before. It doesn't matter

Little kids? A 22 and 21 year old are who you calling little kids? People that can impregnate women, na who you dey call kids? You think everybody on this thread is as old as you are?

Tell the little kids to stop playing old men games. You can't come swinging like an old man, and expect to be treated like a child. If they would stop smearing the name of our great country for the English press to jack off on, I would ignore them.


Shebi, when you break up with somebody and move to another, the appropriate thing is to stop using your ex to catch trips, but those embryos have supposedly moved on to England, but feel the need to name drop Nigeria everytime a microphone is in front of them, like thirsty fan girls that spent a night with a famous celeb.

If I poured bile and bad blood on them, you would be too mortified to even quote me, even less drop your eye-service post here.

I don't owe any English Internationals my good faith, capisce? In fact, the more they lose, the lower England will rank on FIFA, until we pass them. So yeah, I wish them back-to-back losses with their chosen team tongue

Player of the Month should be based on public votes, right? So, it might not follow

IAAF rule allows athletes to switch allegiance at will...
Its not just Nigerian athletes dumping the country every year...literally hundreds have followed that path. even Nigeria has poached a few athletes from the US ..
However, we are losing our best athletes because they structure to develop them doesn't exists....

Ese Brume that won our first medal at the world championship since 2013 was given a hero welcome by her school in Turkey.. the Nigerian government hasn't said anything about rewarding her.. she is a Commonwealth champion,and 4 times African champion and is just 23 years old!! Another country may come for her...


Modified: even Kenya that take athletic seriously have lost a lot of their athletes to other countries especially Bahrain and Qatar
Cyprus

Our boys will be fresher on Sunday against a Brazilian side that just played a physical Senegal. This is a friendly not a tournament. That will be to our advantage.

In the 2015 U17 world youth championship, Osimhen and Chuks destroyed a Junior Selecao defense led by Eder Militao, 3-0 it ended in favour of the Eaglets. Fast forward to 2019, the youngsters are once again on a collision course, now for their various senior national teams

So, Kenneth Omeruo went to make a gaffe by sharing facebook messages with his wife from 11 years ago?

These people should try to remember the age they told the world, before they give us timelines. You can't be playing yourself like that in 2019. Man is supposed to be 26 this year, so, at what age was he dating this lady?
I saw the message on his Instagram page and I was so shocked and embarrassed. He nor get sense at all. Despite the exposure, he nor still get sense. He literally shot his knee cap with such post.

The fact that he wasn't smart enough to do the calculations himself is disappointing.

Look at Elder Militao and compare with Osimhen and Chuks and tell me Militao didn't cheat with his age. Man looks way older than both pairs.

There's a guy postong clips about all the reasons players should be glad to wear the Nigerian jersey, and it's somewhat hilarious and gratifying at the same time.

It's supposed to be a jab at all the foreign borns that chose the other side, showing all the fun they're missing out on.

It's enjoyable.
Is the clips on Twitter??

Are the foreign born players more talented than the so called OVER AGED home grown players? Av we ever had a foreign born striker half as good as Kanu Nwankwo or Yakubu who were said to be over aged? Abi we dun ever get any foreign born defender half as good as Taribo?

It's no news that South American countries and African countries are in the same WhatsApp group when it comes to age cheating.

The difference is that most of them usually have good careers and are valuable market wise , so European scouts don't usually give a f**k about it

No wonder they want to send him back to Galatasaray

Onyekuru Flew From Monaco To Istanbul For Haircut
Super Eagles winger, Henry Onyekuru, took a two hours, 11 minutes flight from Monaco to Istanbul for a haircut, it has been revealed.

The former Everton player, who completed a £12.5m deal to AS Monaco this season, arrived Istanbul recently for the haircut with popular Nigerian celebrity barber, Mukaila Ajanaku.

Ajanaku, a renowned hair-stylist in Europe has A-list footballers like Florentin Pogba, Manchester United’s Paul Pogba’s brother, former Arsenal star, Emmanuel Adebayor, Gael Clichy, ex-Real and AC Milan star, Robinho and Kenneth Omeruo on his clientele list.

“Onyekuru flew in from Monaco just to get a haircut from me. I’m not surprise at all because I have been his stylist since his days at Galatasaray on a loan deal last season.

He continued, “Onyekuru believes in my haircut, I am good at what I do and make sure I tend to my clients’ demands.

“If I wasn’t doing a good job I don’t think the likes of Adebayor, Pogba’s brother (Florentin), Dutch winger Eljero Elia, former City defender, Gael Clichy, just to mention a few, will come to my salon,” he told Sports Extra.

Onyekuru is yet to hit the ground running for Leonardo Jardim’s side this season. The AFCON bronze medalist has no goals but already has one assist in four appearances for the principality club.
