Re: Possible line up?
A Ghanaian reporter just came on a Twitter space and gave our starting line up and some of our tactical training based on what he witnessed in our supposedly closed final training session. He said 4-2-4 offensively and 4-4-2 defensively Bonke and Aribo CM Kelechi and Victor up top flanked by Samu a...

Re: 'Am I going to take a train from here to Holland?' - Eguavoen explains why Dessers
One thing I liked about Rohr was his carefully chosen words. Hardly ever was a word out of place, and he always looked to tamp down controversy. Eguavoen, on the other hand, :blink: :blink: . There were probably a million ways he could have said that better. Also, he has a distrust of the media tha...

Re: For Nigeria to beat Ghana...
After disastrous AFCON campaigns, the worst in Nigeria's and Ghana's recent histories, attention is shifted to the last week of March for a world cup qualifier like no other. Both teams will be looking to edge the other to claim one of the African spots for the Qatar world cup starting this Novembe...

Re: FOR THE RECORD: SE is DEEP into DUDU........
I ask is Pinnick and the NFF now selecting the SE? I do not like this type of news coming out on the SE. Now, we could play against Ghana with Dennis, Lookman and whoever else debuting in such crucial circumstances because of NFF imposition or so. We have seen this before throughout SE history and ...

Re: For Nigeria to beat Ghana...
If it was a one off match, I would rate the chances of both teams at 50/50 but over two matches, Nigeria would be too strong for Ghana. Ghana just don't have the quality that they used to have, and have been playing poorly for a long time. They're only in the equation because of a dubious penalty a...

Re: For Nigeria to beat Ghana...
Talents are not going to decide this qualifier as both team have these. Coaching tactics and players' on-field discipline will. This is going to be like a chess match, with psychology and team cohesion playing a large part. It will not be easy for either team, with AFCON showings at the back of the...

Re: Ejegbete on Lookman
These guys literally have no clue what they are talking about. They are good football analysts but like a lot of people, very shortsighted. This is why there is a difference between an administrator and an analyst. Even if the other players are better than Lookman, which is a bold faced lie, it is ...

Re: SADIQ Exploding after AFCON.... Beware!
I suggest people go an watch the game Almeria Vs Malaga. Sadiq scored the only goal of the game a tap in header but wasted countless chances before he scored and after he scored. The Spanish second division is nothing to write home about. If he was scoring in the first division I would be impressed...

I had wanted to write about this as soon as I came back from LA where I had gone to watch the Super Eagles team B humiliated by the Mexicans. I had believed that there was no good reason to allow the home-based team to face Mexico if not for selfish and unpatriotic reasons. After the game, I went ba...

If you have not been paying attention, the counter media warfare has commenced.
