Re: U17 ROUND OF 16: NIGERIA 1 VS NETHERLANDS 3

Time to grab the tiger by the tail... The composition of this u17 squad is significantly different from the very successful squads of the past. Compare this squad to the 2013 and 2015 squads and you’ll find a significant increase in players of Northern origin. One is tempted to wonder if the North ...

Re: U17 ROUND OF 16: NIGERIA 1 VS NETHERLANDS 2

This team to me is the worst coached Nigeria under 17 team in modern memory. As much as folks will like to disagree, today this team was exposed as a team that is not really a team, lacks cohesive approach to playing as a team, tactically inept, technically underserved and underperforming, and above...

Re: U17 ROUND OF 16: NIGERIA 0 VS NETHERLANDS 0

I am not taking issues with the "QUID QUO PRO" allegation, but what I know is that this team is a team other than any other Nigerian u 17 team. There are other calculations that informed the team selection as a result, Nigeria got the worst team selected in this tournament. I believe that ...

Re: MANU GARBA : NIGERIA HAS TO WIN THIS 2019 U17 WC

Stupid coach, stupid comment. Lacks tactical, technical and game management acumen. Not the fault of the kids, just an underserved coaching.

Re: NIGERIA U17 3 VS ECUADOR U17 2

The team selection is the major problem. This team is unbalanced, and to me is the worst coached Nigeria under 17 team in modern memory. As much as folks will like to disagree, soon, this team will be exposed as a team that is not really a team, that lacks cohesive approach to playing as a team, tac...

Re: EAGLETS FINAL LIST FOR U17 WC

Interesting list.
Notable is really a concerted effort to tribalize this team. What you have in this list is 6 Yoruba, 5 Hausa's, 2 Ibo's 4 Niger Delta's etc. So, are we really sure this is the best Nigeria has to offer at this level, or is it based on tribal balance?

Re: PINNICK SAYS ROHR IS STAYING : WILL GO FOR REFRESHER COU

Best decision ever for continuity and SE progress. Rohr has in many ways stabilized SE, brought back organization, respect, and a level of professionalism that I haven't seen in Nigeria SE in a while. To me, he has done well. You don't expect after missing out on two ACN tournaments to wake up on th...

Re: Ighalo post match comments

Most comments here deserves merit, but does not take away the fact that clear penalties were ignored on two instances. Yes, Ighalo should have put away chances, yes Nigeria should have played better, yes the coach should have done better with his subs and line up, but, the fact still remains that (1...

All of the pictures I've seen shows a man that is at peace, content, happy, and above all, with a woman that he truly loves. I also see a woman that is genuinely happy to be with him. Maybe, the root of his deep in form is found on challenges and stress in the home front. As far as I can extrapolate...

Re: Nice photo of the boys in the dressing room.

What is it with NFF officials eagerness to always appear in players pictures. This guy on the right side should not have been in that picture, but instead, Iheanacho should have been in the front row. Crazy it is. There has always been instances even in U17 cup presentation where this NFF guys will ...

Re: Game Thread: Egypt 1-0 Nigeria FT No NGR ANC!

Great result for a messed up system and administration. Problem with Nigeria is that if we had won, it would have been business as usual, coach Olisa takes the blame as one with the problem, and hence a messiah in SSS comes on and saves the day. Good we lost, the coaches are doing their best with a...
