Finally, Bobo you get problem

And you don't have problem.

andrewbaba44:


Its a rout, when i saw the score line i was expecting nothing less than a brace from tammy

Tammy will have a good england career, his Chelsea performance should tell you that

I agree wholeheartedly with your last paragraph.

He would be a legend for club and country by the time he retires. Many people here may not agree out of sentiments but na the truth be that.

Taliban:


You should receive your check soon. Watch out!!!!

Check?

How do you mean please?

Wanna share with me what is meant by that?

Thanks in anticipation

Benin beat Morocco in the AFCON and Senegal needed a penalty shootout to get past them.

Besides, Zambia did not have their strongest team in Algeria.

Very correct and apart from the scandalous 10 : 1 loss to NIGERIA in 1959 when they were formerly known as Dahomey in their biggest defeat to us,

it has mostly been a 2 or less Goal Victories for NIGERIA over BENIN REPUBLIC.

U23 AFCON: SOUTH AFRICA game is a 'must-win' for Nigeria - AZUBUIKE

Taiye Taiwo

14/11/2019


AFRICA U23 CUP OF NATIONS
The Istanbul Basaksehir midfielder has stated the Olympic Eagles' mission when they take on Amaglug-glug at Al-Salam Stadium

Nigeria U23 captain Okechukwu Azubuike has tagged Friday's encounter against South Africa as "a must-win game".

Imama Amapakabo’s side needs to beat Amaglug-glug to boost their hopes of qualifying for the semi-final of the Africa U23 Cup of Nations.

The Olympic Eagles are placed second in Group B, with a point behind the South Africans, after picking up their first win against Zambia on Tuesday.

"It is a must-win for us, we know the importance of the game and we've been working hard in training," Azubuike said in their press conference in Egypt .

"Hopefully, tomorrow we are going to come out in our best and then make sure we win the game."

Azubuike joined the Olympic Eagles late on Monday after Istanbul Basaksehir held him back for their games in the Turkish Super Lig.

After missing the team's 1-0 loss to Ivory Coast , the 22-year-old played a crucial role in helping Nigeria secure a 3-1 comeback win over the Chipolopolo.

Azubuike doesn't think his presence in Egypt spurred the country to their first win but attributed the result to the team's effort.

"I wouldn't say my presence did a lot because we have good players even without me, we can do something," he added.

"I have been in this position before so I had to speak to the boys and we came out to play our best because the country expects that from us.

"Going forward, I think with or without me, everybody is important and we can win every game if we want to win and we work very hard."

As in ehn

If we meet again, they will still knack us.

Painful truth. We aren't playing to our full potential. Imagine beating Benin just 2:1 at home.

Giant of Africa my foot.

My God, I'm angry tonight.

Benin is not bad

They beat Morocco in the Afcon

As the group B of the 2019 U 23 AFCON finals presently stands,

NIGERIA vs SOUTH AFRICA is a must WIN for NIGERIA indeed just like AZUBUIKE posited.

Because COTED'IVOIRE is presently 2nd ahead of NIGERIA because of their Head-to-head record of 1 : 0 victory in the first match despite NIGERIA having a 1 Goal difference over them.

So, Should both Matches in the group tonight ends up in a Draw or a loss for both sides, Then NIGERIA is out of Tokyo 2020 Olympics.


Let alone NIGERIA loses and COTED'IVOIRE Win or Draw.

However, A Draw for NIGERIA and a loss for COTED'IVOIRE would see NIGERIA scaling through to the Semi finals as group runner-up

Yes bro

Se because a team has been bad meant that there was no outstanding player?

Wasnt gana gueye and jordan vertout among the poor relegated aston villa team?

But where did they end up after that?

Jonas hector was German no. 1 leftback even after Koln was relegated to 2.Bundesliga. A certain Jack Butlant keep on receiving invite from England with stoke being relegated.

Joebie:
I don't think he would do well in England.

What makes you think?

Oh! Ow K!

Oh! Ow k!

You meant

1.That I would soon get my Cheque for joining the thread right?

Watching Montenegro against England taught me to respect Gernot Rohr's tactical decisions against big teams.

The Montenegro team attempted to match England strength for strength, trying to keep possession and attack when they can, and the result is there for all to see. They played bravely, entertained thier fans, and lost woefully.

Rohr would NEVER lose to ANY team by that margin. Call his style boring and conservative, but he has never lost to any team by more than two goals. Not to England, Argentina or Brazil.

Rohr may not be dishing out eye-catching fantastic football at the moment, but he certainly gets his results.

Please let's respect Gernot Rohr.

LIFELINE For NIGERIA As SOUTHGATE Snubs TOMORI AGAIN In England Win

Published: November 15, 2019

The NFF have been handed a lifeline over their pursuit of young Chelsea defender, Fikayo Tomori after England manager Gareth Southgate failed to utilise him in their European Championship qualifier versus Montenegro on Thursday evening.

Tomori, 21 was on the radar of the Nigerian higher-ups prior to his call-ups to play for England, and could have become cap-tied for life to the Three Lions if he played even for a minute in the big win at Wembley.

The dual-eligible defender was an unused substitute in each of England's last two qualification games before yesterday's meeting with Montenegro, and he watched on yet again for the entirety of the game, with Joe Gomez, James Maddison and Tammy Abraham coming off the bench as Southgate rang the changes.

Thus, he is clearly behind all of Michael Keane, Tyrone Mings, John Stones and Harry Maguire in the pecking order of defenders for England.

His international limbo could however, change by Sunday 17th when the Three Lions play Kosovo in a dead rubber, having scaled through the series as group winners, and Southgate could give most of his first team players some rest then.

Anglo-Nigerian striker Abraham who became cap-tied to England on October 11th opened his senior international goal account in the 7-0 victory over The Brave Falcons.

The man dey try. He is upgrading himself. Even NFF knows that. He gives us good decent results. Love him or hate him, he is making progress with Nigeria. If we sack him today, he won't go jobless.

Thank you help me tell him ,dem go dey judge call with sentiment

He should also call Jonas hector a bad player for his team to be relegated with him playing left back for them

Imagine Tomori playing for NIGERIA and also featuring in the OLYMPICS should NIGERIA qualify alongside other Stars presently in the super Eagles eligible Age-wise,

That would amount to reminiscing the 1996 Atlanta OLYMPICS Gold winning feat.


Addendum : A combination of

AINA EKONG AJAYI with a better LB than JEMILU or IDOWU (JEMILU for now since no one else)

would be superb for a mid-field Anchorage on

NDIDI ETEBO ARIBO MUSA

pinpointing a twin strike force of

OSIMHEN CHUKWUEZE

with SIMON and KALU coming on for

CHUKWUEZE & MUSA

Would be deadly against LESOTHO come Sunday.

Note : The 4 4 2 formation above is premised on the fact that

In either of our 4 3 3 or 4 2 3 1 formations being deployed previously, the Wingers have failed to Link up with OSIMHEN- The point Man effectively as they aren't good crossers of the Ball for great pull out domination.

Though I would have preferred BALOGUN to EKONG but lack of game time in his Club has been his bane

What do you all think about this? Have your say please.

iSlayer:




Unfortunately, human beings usually shun good advice. Until they're stung.

I hope we don't loose Rohr because I'm already now getting used to watching super eagles without having high blood pressure, because I know the won't disappoint, unlike before where ordinary Afcon qualification sef, na war

Which kind of nonsense useless talk be this na
The Tomori guy says he's not playing for 9ja and you are talking of lifeline? Lifeline ko deaththread ni mtchwwww
Tomori should go to blazes with his English ambition we are long long passed that crap.

Enyeama turns up for SE training

why is he still rocking losc lille jersey?

But we can't blame him for he is a journalist and has to air his opinion.

I personally dislike Players using NIGERIA to play Ludo whenever they are being approach too

It often irritate me that they never learn lessons from DELE ALI, GABRIEL AGBOLAHOR, JOHN FASHANU, CARLTON COLE, UGO EHIOGU, ROSE BARKLEY (though still playing) etc Who never played enough before being dumped
