Please tell me you do watch the belgian league

Why cant you boldly say you do watch club brugge regularly ?

Suddenly after yesterday game a player is selfish, why havent many of you being saying siuch since

Some said so when he scored 2 against madrid and some are saying so after yesterday game, but why didnt you guys complain during those Belgian league matched he has been playing ? Lol , Una no dey watch am thats why

Dennis was selfish yesterday stop defending the obvious

Percy Tau was through on goal and he decided to shoot at the keeper instead passing to him

Okereke was also dropped

can somebody explain to me what Onaichu is doing on that list
would have evwn prefer we call up kayode or nwakaeme or even use that spot for a defender

with that midfield set up think it won't be difficult for players like Eze and Ejaria to break into the super eagles

with that midfield set up think it won't be difficult for players like Eze and Ejaria to break into the super eagles

Because Onuachu has been scoring goals?

I'm not even sure this is the main list

Subzero047:

Percy Tau was through on goal and he decided to shoot at the keeper instead passing to him

So being selfish yesterday means he has been selfish all season?

How can you guys judge a player just because of yesterday game ?

Not surprised this is coming from a ZERO man

Bolowolowo:
Shehu??

This guy must have Rohr's nudes

I tell you.... hope we get done with the switch of some of the European born defenders before end of the year at least some might help displace shehu

ohh ma badth

I didn't mean the azubuike aka iniesta, modric, lampard Gerrard etal

God forbid

I mean nwakaeme I need to edit that post

azubuike and his lazy under 23 colleagues are folks I don't wanna see near the super eagles for now...

Bolowolowo:
I was just on Soccer Laduma and these folks are still wailing

These South Africans don't seem to understand that Tau is past the stage where they can call him a wonderkid or an emerging talent... Dude supposed to have hit his peak by now.. but he can't even boss club Brugge...

Subzero047:

onuachu should stick to club footnall...
the guy is tall for nothing save for that fluke goal against Egypt nothing else from him on GwG

bro we don't know how to hype players here...
sometimes I imagine had it been oshimen was a south African they would have been clamour for him to edge messi and ronaldo for baloon d'or or Tanzania the way they hype Samantha that one is even trying self at least he is now in premiership

And please stop yabbing my zuby

isan:
Onuachu for fucking sake again i rather have simmy

both don't worth it
just that rohr don't rate Yinka or Kayode/nwakaeme this guys are better

andrewbaba44:


Oga leave bonaventure alone

If na your favorite European player you no go talk this one

Apart from de Bruyne Messi mane di Maria and few others how many of the best European players aren’t selfish ?

Or is it mbappe that doesn’t pass to cavani or Neymar ?

Abeg leave Dennis alone

Mane is selfish too..
In fact, it was Mane that started the selfishness competition between himself and Salah... Salah just took it further...

that Imama under 23 squad is the most lazy team I have ever seen in my entire life...including the goal keeper they all look pregnant.

damn.....that team looked older than even the super eagles...

LaMujer:




you get time sef.

the primary job of a striker is to score goals, not play for the team. Everybody has their job on the pitch. A 9 scores goals, not assist. The midfeilders are the one's whose job is to assist. that Bobby relinquishes that part of his job doesn't make him a role model for strikers.

Heck, you won't see any striker aspiring to be like Firminho, because he doesn't do his job. How can wingers be persistently outscoring you and you're claiming to be a striker....

Firmino does his job very well. His job is to play the false 9 role..
At Hoffeinheim, he played as an attacking midfielder, winger and striker, so you can say he is versatile... Even when he first joined Liverpool, he played from the flanks too... But for now, he is a false9 and is doing his job perfectly well.

BascoVanVeli:
Wow so Osimhen has already gone to see Ighalo. Got a jersey too


https://mobile.twitter.com/Buchi_Laba/status/1230827996040265728

yeah....the relationship between them seems to be very strong moreover they're both of the same tribe and grew up in ghetto areas in Lagos state.

that's a good one...good to have someone like ighalo to look up to and take adviss from

andrewbaba44:


Lols okay bro

Mane has just dropped the attitude this season..

2 seasons ago, it was terrible... I think he got jealous of Salah taking his spot on the RW and his status as the team's most important player...

But he has been better this season... Dennis is still young . He will learn .. it's normal for him to want some glory for himself....

AllforJesus7:



Premise of the argument >> "The Nigerian squad is scary"


My argument >>
1. The Nigerian squad is average at best. All the players the dude listed above play at mid level to back water teams. We have no single player in a top team. We have no single world class player. We have no goal keeper.

2. In the history, all AFCON and world cup semi-finalists all had an outstanding player that carried the team through.

Two brief examples;

In 2012, Zambia (the least prestigious team to win a recent AFCON) won because of the genius of goal keeper Mweene who saved countless penalties and stopped shots.

Nigeria in 2019 could not progress beyond the semi finals because they had no goal keeper and no outstanding /world class player. Mahrez carried Algeria through

3. Analysing the Nigerian team:

The defenders play for mid to low level teams. They choked against Madagascar. Ekong scored an own goal against Algeria and recently against Lesotho?

Ndidi is good at tackles but is limited when it comes to play making. The attacking mid fielders listed are either under - performing or playing for back water clubs e.g Iwobi, Aribo, Eze

The attack is quite good. However against top teams with top defenders they get found out.


Conclusion:

1. I do not undermine our team. We have very good prospects for the near future.

2. But at the moment, contrary to what the poster would have us think (by listing the squad and tagging them scary), we are still but a very average team.

3. To become world beaters and continent shakers our players need to go up one more gear and play for top teams. We need an average of 2 to 3 world class players. Even one world class player will do.

4. Ndidi is not a world class players (If you want to argue be ready to come at me with stats. Trust me I have sufficient stats to prove)
At best Ndidi is above average.

5. The team needs an average projected period of 3 or 5 more years to become 'scary'.

6. Apologies if I deflated anyone's ego or excitement at the team. I simply stated the fact.

your No. 4 conclusion reeks of dung sir. You don't rate among the best 5 DMs in Europe (by better mouthpieces) for one grunt on Nairaland to come making bold statements.

That said, What superstar was in the Costa Rican team that reach the QF in 2014 WC? Ogbeni this isn't pes

Now you are talking jare concerning Dennis

And that’s true ,Mane was there before salah came from no where to take the glory

Mane has already catch up with salah ,and as for me his is better than salah

Maybe with time the squad jells together to know how to find him with crosses

He will be important against teams that play ultra defensive

Oshimen is even better in the air than him...
that guy can't maximize his height at all...
I have watched him play for the eagles with no ball control, poor positioning and not aggressive

abeg onuachu should go boil stone... thank God we have hungry strikers springing up even Sadiq Umar is there hoping he gets a seria A club signing this summer because he has been impressive for the Czechoslovakia champs

That's a lie, because Onuachu has not performed in the SE shirt does not mean he is not dominating in the air

A huge percentage of his goals has been headed goals
