Re: Danjuma: I 'need to think' about international switch

He was red hot for Brugges a few years back and opted for Netherlands. To be fair, having a Nigerian last name does not make you Nigerian at all - if he feels he connects more with Netherlands then he should continue to work hard till he gets a chance to represent them. 1 goal in every 2 games (as h...

Re: What Now For Nacho?

Nacho's problem I think is that he is too playful/ jovial - kind of like the class clown. I think this affects his performance via his focus - in elite sports sometimes you can't afford yourself moments to switch off and clown even when you're not on the pitch playing or having training sessions. It...

Re: WHO IS THE MOST USELESS GOALKEEPER IN THE EPL?

Definitely not as bad as Alexis Sanchez who has rewarded Man U for paying him over £15million salary in the last year with 2 goals, 3 yellow cards, 4 different injuries and 4 assists. To date he is probably the biggest performing player in EPL history who has failed to replicate his form after trans...

Re: Players who made wrong career decisions

Alexis's problem is that he is playing in a team that does not play sleek passing/sexy football like he had a Barcelona and Arsenal. Man City would probably had been a better move for him but they couldn't get him. Man U bought him but it was clear he had to upstage the then world most expensive pla...

Re: Sierra Leone disqualified from African Nations Cup

If FIFA is making nonsense rules must CAF copy? To decide to strip a country...

Desailly left African aged 4 and later claimed he felt more french than Ghanian. Drogba left for France also aged 5 but always identified as African.
