Re: Osimhen out of WCQ

1. Does our team need rebuilding? In what positions do we need to improve? Yes, we need to keep improving. We have aging players. We need help at fullback, Central Defense, Midfield, and attack (we have been nothing without Osimhen). We need to rebuild the team because despite playing in the finals...

Re: Osimhen out of WCQ

...he's protecting his big money move this summer. Abeg make una no bother the kid, find another player. That was my initial suspicion. I could be right or wrong, but it doesn't seem right. My hope is that we have another striker who will make Osimhen realize he is not indispensable. I remember las...

Re: Osimhen out of WCQ

I was beginning to look forward to the Finidi George era, but I think it's going to be bad. I predict Chukwueze and other injured players will be replaced by more homebased. Bye bye 2026 WC. Why is your default pathway always the path of negativity? Is that how you base your life? Is that how you s...

Re: Osimhen gives Chelsea ‘APPROVAL’

I can't wait for Osimhen's saga to be over. It's so confusing.

Honestly, I don't want to hear about Osimhen's transfer. :D :...

Re: Europa League Final : Lookman vs Boniface & Tella ( 3-0) Lookman x3

Quietly goes about his business. All very well taken dispatches. The first, easily overlooked for its lack of grated cassava, boiled, stirred and served, however, the finish, spectacular. The opening up of his body and precision, textbook stuff. A far more arduous a task than most might assume. Thi...

Somehow I dont feel it balanced, but I hope I am wrong.
We need a very strong, hard working Midfield that can pass. Honestly that is the solution. If we address our midfield, 90 percent of our problem is solved

Re: Lookman and Boniface: Focusing on SE output.....

Both Victor Boniface and Ademola Lookman have both taken Europe by storm wearing their club shirts. That clearly puts them in the running for AFOY. In my opinion, and given criteria used by CAF they are both going to be top contenders. My personal opinion is that CAF should not be using performance...

Sometimes losing a Final helps you win the next final. I am sure he learnt something on a personal level about what to do to take it over the line. Secondly, I don't think he should rush to go the EPL. Frankly the EPL is overrated. You learn more in the Italian league than the EPL. It's more technic...

So Adarabioyo didn't even make a 33 man list ? Will he still be waiting to sing "God save the King" at 27 ?
