okay passing is not inclusive when referring your term "ball playing"

Dude you have understanding problem o grin

It is VERY CLEAR Ndidi has passing issues(your stats for one match does not make any difference)

Now our argument is, who is a better ball player between the two a) Ndidi b)Gueye

Passing is definitely included but you can't judge with one match stats

I can pull up one match stat to show that Iwobi is the best shooter in the EPL or CR7 is poor in the air, it doesn't work that way

Super Eagles right-back Ola Aina is now available for selection ahead of Torino's clash with Udinese after returning from a short-term injury.

The 23-year-old pulled out of the Nigeria squad that played a 1-1 draw with Brazil due to a domestic injury.

The Chelsea Academy product trained on his own for two days and wasn't given the green light by the club's medical team to join the rest of the squad until Tuesday's workout.

Since joining the Serie A side on a permanent deal in the summer, Aina has featured in seven league matches and he will hope to be in Mazzarri's starting line-up against Udinese who could feature Nigeria's assistant captain William Troost-Ekong in the game week eight fixture at Dacia Arena (Udine).

Meanwhile, Troost-Ekong, who was impressive against the star-studded Brazilians, has played five Serie A games for Udinese so far this season.

He will hope to retain his spot at the heart of Udinese's defence on Sunday.

I know of the one-drop rule that holds true only in America. Once you have a black parent, you are automatically black, no matter how pale you are.

This rule does not apply outside of America, and no one in Britain would actually call a Ross Barkley black. Anthony Joshua's grandmother is white, does that mean he's white?

I don't think that is actually a real rule ooo but that's just how things are. The whites will never claim you so you are technically stuck with being black.

Still if you don't want to be considered black no one will stop you. I consider Tiger Woods to be a black man but he has claimed he is not and everybody left it at that. This is why black people didn't fully stand with him when he had his troubles.

The problem with most Nigerians if they don't value what they have.

The 2 teams I envy in Africa are Algeria and Morocco.

These North African countries are currently blessed with well schooled and trained players doing great things in top leagues in Europe.

Aside mane, koulibaily and gana I see nothing more in the senegelese team.

That's true but that is always the case with mixed kids. Though I feel the black side will mock more out of jest but it can be tough. Imagine considering yourself as black and being given the name"white boy" in the same community. That may sound harsh but even darker people get name called also "black", "oil spill", etc.

My Best Senegal/Nigeria Combined XI


GK- Mendy (Senegal) - Only because he is in Ligue 1. But if not him, my next choice would still be a Senegalese in Gomis also in Ligue 1. Uzoho is third for now.

CB- Kalidou Koulibaly
CB- William Troost Ekong

RB- Ola Aina
LB- Youssouf Sabaly

DM- Wilfred Ndidi (Even when Gueye was at Everton in England, he never ever topped Ndidi. Gueye at Ndidi's age wasn't making the headlines Ndidi is already making).

CM- Joe Aribo (simply because Senegal has no better true CM than Aribo. Kouyate, Gueye and Ndiaye are basically DMs with workrates. Gueye can also play CM but not like Aribo can Biko!)

AM- Alex Iwobi (name one Senegalese AM who can challenge Iwobi.. I dey wait)


LW- Sadio Mane (ofcos he will bench Kalu, Musa and Onyekuru... No questions asked).
RW- Samuel Chukwueze (beats out Ismaila Sarr and Keita Balde easily).

CF- Victor Osimhen (Victor trumps all their strikers oh yes!)


That is Nigeria 7-4 Senegal


No sentiments at all. If you have a problem with Salif Sane's absence. Then we have a debate on. Kalidou and Ekong both have strong numbers in the serie A and will form a better pair than a Kalidou-Sane.

Kalidou as the ball playing CB and Ekong as the Destroyer CB.

Black people call full blacks that speak properly 'white' just because they speak properly, how much more the mixed ones, the same black people have the most derogatory names for Africans. They mock openly

The white mockery is not so open, theirs is more of a condescending brand

Ignorant black people do that like the hood ones. And , you are right the whites make this subtle condescending comments like "your child is the most intelligent black kid I know". The white are very insulting but it's easy to burst them.
Meanwhile, black people hate each other like no other. The whites, however, do not hate black as much a the hispanics hate blacks....hispanics hate black people more then they (the black) realize.

Black Americans just have everything to say but it is nothing personal really.

Africans also say ignorant things about slavery and the struggles Afro Americans go through. I think the difference is that they don't exclude you from their society no matter what they say. White people live in peace in the ghetto but immediately a black family moves to the suburbs wahala dey.

Nigeria
Eagles Squad For Benin, Lesotho Clash – Esiti, Otabor Out, Musa, Etebo In, QPR Eze In Line For First Eagles Call
October 15, 201905536



The list of players for the senior national team of Nigeria next round of games which is the 2020 Africa Cup of Nations on the 14th and 19th of November against Benin Republic and Lesotho respectively is near completion according to reports exclusively gathered by Owngoalnigeria.com editorial team.


Nigeria will first play Benin Republic on the 14th before taking on Lesotho five days later and already coach Gernot Rohr has started fine tuning his team after the two friendly games against Ukraine and Brazil played within a space of a month.

Rohr has decided to drop some players to make way for players who were missing from the game due to injury and those who didn’t impress during the games played or in training ahead of the games.

PAOK of Greece midfield powerhouse Anderson Esiti is favourite to miss out with Rohr settling for Ramon Azeez who impressed as a second half substitute against Brazil while Esiti failed to do same when he was introduced against Ukraine.


Viv Solomon-Otabor might have had his last invitation to the team for now with Samuel Kalu set to return for the AFCON 2020 Qualifiers as he is expected to be fit. Otabor didn’t do enough in training to be considered as a substitute in the game against Brazil.

Team captain Ahmed Musa will return to the squad if he is fit alongside Oghenekaro Etebo who missed the last game to be with his wife who was expected to give birth according to reports from players close to the Stoke City midfielder.

Sources close to Rohr also revealed that QPR midfielder Ebere Eze has been discussed extensively by the technical crew of the Super Eagles and he could get his chance in the upcoming games. His decision is however subject to international clearance which is not expected to be tedious as he only played for England in a friendly game.



Anxiously waiting...

Erdal Torunogullari, who is Besiktas presidential candidate's close ally, has promised to sign Leicester City's Kelechi Iheanacho if Ahmet Nur Cebi is elected.

According to Fotospor, Iheanacho has been sounded out about joining the Istanbul club following talks between Torunogullari and the striker's representative.

It is claimed that the Nigeria international could be joining Besiktas on an initial 18-month loan deal if negotiations are successful.

His first team opportunities have been limited under managers Craig Shakespeare, Claude Puel and Brendan Rodgers, with only 16 starts in the Premier League from a possible 84 since his transfer from Manchester City in August 2017.

Iheanacho is struggling to gain playing time due to the presence of Jamie Vardy and Ayoze Perez, and a move away from the King Power Stadium when the transfer window reopens would be the sensible thing to do.

The 23-year-old's only appearance for the Foxes this season came against Luton Town in the third round of the League Cup.
