Last two months on Sadiq's proposed move to Lille, you said until an offer is made, everything is a speculation but today it is no longer the same? grin

So tell me, since you now claiming that offers can be made without the public knowing, how then were you sure there was no offer for Umar that was kept from the public?

Oya take mic

You are talking in the nonsense and the rubbish!

When it comes to our home grown players, any offer for them is mere rumours, but for your borough boys, you have every details of the deal!

Didn't you try to dismiss the Osimhen to Napoli news as mere rumours at the beginning? You said he would be heading to Newcastle

Lol the boy is running around naked grin

My man oya tell me any Nigeria born player who is not age cheat.

My point is that the guy is not up-to 35 years.

Kanu Nwankwo is 44 years old right.This is a player I watched in Nigeria league in 1991/1992 and am older than him which I will never agree.

Let Francis Uzoho keep his beard then tell me his age.

On age matter for Nigeria born he get as ebi o.

If I remember well, was it not Siasia that was in secondary school when he got a call up i think for the U20s?

I don't know why people get so heated and hypocritical about this issue.

Age cheating is a way of life in Nigeria.

Does PMB know his age.

There are guys who have inadvertently married women older than themselves. But before they got to know piking don enter.

Our civil servants routinely change age.

The entire football academy system in Nigeria is underpinned by age cheating. We all know bthis but get all indignant about it.

European football is partly to blame with its obsession with age and intrinsically linking it with value.

If you are good enough then that should be it not age in the general.

How do you know? You don't know a thing about what goes on in local Academies in Nigeria. You are just ranting.

A good example is Chidiebere Nwakali that a lot of people who knew him from his hood could attest his young age.

You always try to claim like if your postulations are the holy grail.

What of Amokachi? He was a kid when he was spotted by Westerhoff? What of Mikel who was still in secondary school when he was spotted by Kashimawo Laloko? There are age cheats in Nigeria but it is overblown.

It is absolutely not overblown.

Ask this question is Nigeria a country with high standards of integrity, honesty, truth honour and established righteous ethics, norms and values. Please tell me

We do not have Automatic Birth Data Capture at at source and or government based official corroboration.

So you rely on the integrity of people to establish truth, in Nigeria.

How easy is it to get a sworn declaration of age in Nigeria, maybe 15/20 K naira not more than £40. But it can be the difference in a huge lucrative football career that could net you millions of £ that will change the entire direction of your family immediate and extended for years to come.

Any you are saying it's overblown.

You know the truth but prefer to hide and pretend, it like saying police taking bribe in Nigeria is overblown.

That's how you changed the goal posts of MRI when it was pointed out that Ndidi failed a MRI scan in 2013. Questioning the validity of the scan.

All to support a highy dubious and untruthful narrative.

He has not got to Saka level yet and Saka is non committal so far about playing for the SE.

Saka just wants to dash people's hope. I knew he won't play for Nigeria. The British Daily Mail claims "he would love to play for England but that he is enjoying the connections from Nigeria". He has played a Tammy on us

I dropped Saka's words from a Skysports interview when asked about his international future on this thread today. Check it out.

First of all you must distinguish between an opinion and a Lie. Maybe there are gaps in your education so you don't know the difference.

1. That's my opinion of Nacho, very limited dribbling ability mand put q defender in front of him he will mostly back pass or pass sideways and run in to space for a 1-2. That's my opinion it's not a Lie.

2. Victor has not started at Napoli yet so I have never given an opinion on his positional play.

But I suspect you mean Lille.

Victor is super fast, when you have a fast striker you adapt your play to suit him. Particularly when it's been very effective. Lille play a system that complements his attributes. That's plain Fact. Just like Messi in Barcelona, just like Benteke when he was at Villa, Just like Mapped in PSG, etc.

So if the sky is blue and you have perceived it be grey, you are colour blind. You need help go and see an optician.

3. There are a number of agents, recruitment heads, players, managers and yes bad belle will eat you up now all on my phone contract list. Indeed too many to count across Europe and ein Nigeria. So l should show you, Chei your reasoning is beyond me.


Desperate Dan you want to turn red to Blue in your quest for what l do not know.

You are a poor comedian.
I meant "lille". So you now agree that whatever post you made here are your "opinions" and doesn't necessarily mean a statement of fact. Then you need to stop forcing your nonsense opinion down our throat as "statement of fact". You haven't been able to prove that nacho pass the ball backward each time a defender shows up in front of him, which render your opinions a "lie".

As for the education talk, you think speaking or writing big jargon make you sound intelligent? You are delusional. Post your academic qualification, your GPA, let me post mine (with proof) from the greatest university of Benin. Let everyone see who gat the better GPA.. You are a "mumu" lol for telling me shit about educational gap. Ffucking idiot. I'll be coming over to UK soon, let meet up and see who is better. You aint no shit komekn. You cant even post a single picture of yourself and yet you want us to believe you have all the contact round Europe.

A failed system does not turn every Nigerians into criminals. The Nigerian law system is kn shambles but there are multitudes of law abiding citizens. Having a poor birth capture system does not automatically turn everyone to age cheats. As i said, you d not know. Stop claiming like you do.

I have gone to an Academy long before the MRI scan arrived and seen kids playing U17 tourneys. You will know they are using their real age.

Mikel went from Pepsi Academy to Plateau United and was clearly a snall boy plahing witb men.

Chidiebere and Kelechi Nwakali were real small boys in Academiies in Nigeria.

You don't have an idea what you are arguing.

Yes. Napoli are in for Jeremie Boga. A bid of 25M€ + a player (Amin Younes) was rejected at first. Sassuolo value Boga at 40M€ and they like the idea of Younes in a part exchange + cash. Maybe an offer of 30m€ + Younes will make it happen. Napoli is keen on reaching a compromise with them shaa... And if they succeed in landing Boga, mehn... That would be extra lit. Time will tell. They play Sassuolo today and Boga will miss out due to minor injury I think.

TheSupernerd Sir. While we keep our fingers crossed for a positive response from the young man as you quoted from Skysports, let's also not forget that the English FA has a way of pressurizing these guys to play for them. Saka would not be the first and definitely not the last. Let's just prepare our hearts for whatever the outcome may be. At least we have Zaidu Sanusi, Sam Chuks etc to fill up whatever space he would have filled for us. When VicMo left, we thought we were doomed.

But you see, I am on top of this one. I am close to sources that tell me what is happening in the background. So worry not. Saka himself in the interview didn't commit to England. The Skysports interviewer(s) thought it would be a straight answer but the boy stunned them. Let time tell. I need not say more.
