The SE result against Mali is sure to bring about lots of discussion. Nigeria also lost 2-0 in a friendly before Afcon so friendlies may not necessarily be the best way to judge the team. One thing to note - if i got it right from memory, the starting lineup against Mali today has only 3 of the play...

Yes, Peseiro can win it.. but I do have one problem with him; he is too darned conservative. Some very discerning people have said that if you want to accomplish really great things, you have to be adventurous and take risks. He simply needs to open up our attack in the final against Ivory Coast. I...

There is nothing wrong with Peseiro. For me, Nigeria should keep him. He just has to get rid of players not able to give 110.

Didn't Peseiro sign with some Eygptian team or are those just rumours at this point?

Please, please and please this guy needs to go, just not good enough! JJ scammed us with the worst "playmaker" that has ever donned the jersey for Nigeria. And please don't give me that "he was played out of position" nonsense here, the hallmark of outstanding players is their a...

After the loss. This Nigeria squad is world cup level, and when they qualify, I expect the team to do very well. They played really well during the tournament. There are a lot of things that can be built on. The defense and attack are superb and the midfield is almost complete. I believe with a few...

We keep hearing about 32 year old Keshi. I have a few questions about that period as I was not following things then as I am now. 1. Was Keshi keeping out super talented defenders that could have helped SE on the pitch ? 2. Was Keshi as bad then as Musa is now ? 3. Was Keshi so bad he wasn't even m...

<SNIP> It is interesting you say that because the players themselves seem to get along very well. Is there something I am missing? I have never related it to the current team. They seem to get on very well and the foreign raised players are amazing. My point is more general from a recruitment point...

It's not easy to cover 8 miles per game and Zaidu does that very well. Have y'all noticed that when the S Eagles are attacking, he is always up there with the attackers? It takes an immense amount of stamina to do that. And obviously when you have more players in attack, it makes it harder for the ...

I wonder about some of these stories. Half the time, the journalist decides on the angle before writing the content and then looks for bits and pieces to satisfy the angle they are trying to promote. If Iheanacho was so much out of favour, he would not have come on as a sub with almost 30mins left t...

South Africa were the better team today - the Super Eagles seemed to have less energy than in the last few games .... but in the end, the Super Eagles deserved the win. It was a cagey game and could have gone either way. South Africa just seemed more industrious and seemed to carve out more chances...

How do you take out Moses Simon in a must win game when he is not injured nor tired. Hope we win but this is a major brain error. Second set of subs completely senseless I'm not sure any of the subs were bad. Three of the subs took penalties and they all scored. Moses was having an average game and...

Ok. Why not just hire a babalawo to spread werepe on the grass before the game? That’s better than hypnosis because they definitely won’t be able to pay attention as they scratch their whole body.

Emir: I only want to know - are you shaking or not?

Do you know why this is? It is because half of the team are foreign-born and when they say they are 28, we know for certain that they are 28 and not 36. Inadvertently, the massive influx of diasporans like Aina, Ekong, Ajayi, Iwobi, Lookman, Aribo, etc, has managed to not only bring the average age...

Without Osimhen, SE chances drop significantly. He brings something non-tangible to the team - not measured by goals or statisics!

We are in the same world cup group as RSA and have always had the psychological edge on them so this is a game we absolutely have to win in order to retain that edge. Going by what I saw RSA do against Cape Verde today, we should win this game. 2-0 Nigeria The days of SE having the psychological ed...

https://www.instagram.com/p/Cz_mvy-M8IZ/?igshid=MzRlODBiNWFlZA== I will stay out of the argument of whether Musa should be invited to the SE at this stage of his career. I leave that for those of you who are obviously quite passionate about the issue one way or the other :) At the 94 world cup, a 3...

... How can you conclude that Iheanacho and Chukwueze do not give their best when playing for Nigeria? Must they run around like headless chickens before they are adjudged to have given their best? This is so unfair to both players I really wish this thread would not turn into player X vs player Y ...

Nigerians are "tribalists" at the core. Another thread about SE and Foreign-born players? That this is being discussed, even if benign, is divisive and in bad taste. ANC - some may choose to look at it from a divisive perspective of foreign born vs Nigeria born. That is absolutely not the...

It was apparent that the half-hearted previous attempts to get clubs to start youth teams was not working. With a true league, ...

Thanks Gotti. Great to see the pipeline of talent for the SF continuing. I missed the match? Any standout players?

It's called globalization. We never see natin. In 3 generations, u go begin see blond haired English boys with "Ajayi" as their last name playing for the SE. If Nigeria develops, then the NPFL will be a destination league for even European players. That is only using one tiny part of the ...

@Tbite, this is idealistic more than anything else. Once upon a time, long before the advent of global powerhouses and multinational involvement, football was the sport of the brutish underclass. A poor man's game. Today, it is far removed from its origin. ....... To address the intricacies of your...
