U think say na everybody wey dey here dey watch Ball? The championship lacks quality but very physical and intense. The league itself is like a war zone where there is little room for pretty football which is the reason they usually frustrates epl teams in cup games. I never believed that a player like ejaria who looks fragile could cut it in the championship but his dominance so far in midfield battles this season have proved me wrong. komekn: |

charlesemeka85: Nna, Ezenwa has been inactive for possibly close to four months and yet he still gets invited. So don't make it seem like only Nigerian coaches invite inactive players, I mean Rohr does that every other international break and we all look sideways. |

That kid is super strong and robust. I have had the opportunity to see few of his games this season and I must confess he impressed me so much. Even with the robust nature of the championship he still have that confidence of showing off incredible skills every weekend. I pointed it our few weeks ago after watching him and Eze that he seem more complete and versatile than the qpr play maker. Ovie reminds me of a young Paul pogba emerging from man united's academy many years ago but he is more pacy and hard working than the French midfield maestro. Ovie is too good to remain in the championship beyond this season. Even if he can't get an epl team to sign him he should move to the French or German league. Kid is super talented komekn: |

Kbs468: His Dad is mixed race with a Nigerian Father and a white mother. His Dad is half Nigerian in thay regard but Ross has a white mother. His Dad unfortunately is an alcoholic and has little or no understanding of Nigeria. Ross himself is typical scouser and knows nothing about Nigeria and has no affinity with anything Nigerian. So that idea that he looks up to Victor Moses is just not true. Even the Nigerian and African players in Everton don't really jell with him from an African perspective. 2 Likes |

2019 U23 AFCON : Four Takeaways From Nigeria U23s Disappointing Draw Vs South Africa Published: November 15, 2019 Nigeria will not be at the football event of the 2020 Olympics after the Imama Amapakabo coached side were held to a scoreless draw by South Africa on Friday at the Al Salam Stadium, Cairo. Izuchukwu Okosi presents four things noted in the disappointing match. 1. The Eagles Started Well With High Pressing The Nigerian side started the match the better team and seemed to be the likelier team to score but their performance level dropped when mental alertness was required. The initial high press deployed gave way to a poor finish. 2. The South Africans Wasted Time The South Africans went down at the slightest contact with a Nigerian player most times to waste a few seconds. That tactic worked a trick for them and it took the steam off the Eagles. 3. The Second African Side Parked The Bus Knowing that a draw was enough for them to qualify for the semifinals, the South Africans were comfortable sitting back and hoping to catch the Nigerians on the counter. They were ultra defensive and only poured forward when the plan was to take the Nigerians by surprise. The South Africans have players with pace and that was yo their advantage. 4. The Eagles Discipline Was A Factor The Nigerian players' frustration grew as the South African side played so deep and resorted to falling on the deck with the slightest of touches. That earned Valentine Ozornwafor a yellow card for dissent and Kelechi Nwakali another yellow card in the second half. Izuchukwu Okosi |

The U-23s missed out on the Olympics today. Well... I am surprised many are that stunned. To be fair, it was already "Mission Impossible" after that first game loss. I clearly stated that our chances of making it Tokyo just got crazily slimmer. Fine, our win over Zambia did raise some hopes... But sadly the Mission Impossible was never to be made possible.

Lewis is good and Norwich re convinced they will lose him when they drop back to the championship which is the main reason they re going for okoroji. Norwich coach is German and due to the clubs minimal finance he have been able to bring in few players from the German 2nd tier on low cost. Bayer leverkusen are also interested in okoroji edi287: |

Excluding me because I never expected anything from the team. Also the competition served as an eye opener to folks who over hype certain players. Atleast Rohr and his team will be appreciated a bit by the nay sayers who re currently in sifia pain Humility017: |
