All protocols observed. Greetings all. (Suya, e leekwanu gi?) Don't know where to start, coming back here after so long. The site is so different -- and much better -- now, though it took me a quite while to figure out how to "enter" the forum. It is a great site, and I look forward to be ...

Re: Are We World Cup Material?

Even as a Real Madrid supporter, I can vouch that Vincent Enyeama is much better than Iker Casillas ; :scared: certainly, I would prefer Enyeama if I had both of them at my disposal and my life depended on a positive result. :curse: Don't be a silly boy. :roll: I don't know what the hell you're tal...

Re: Are We World Cup Material?

Dude pls stop misyarning. Despite the tactically-deficient framework they had to work under, the boys managed to conjure up brilliant plays including (but not limited to) those which led to the two goals. p4p players like Nsofor, Ike Uche, Mikel , Kanu were superior to Tunisia.

Fendy: I didn't realize the players made the same observation, but I'm not surprised they did. It was too glaring to see. TFCO: My main point is that we have players with as much, if not more, potential than the Okochas, Finidis, Taribos, Adepojus, Kanus, etc., but that they no longer get the break ...

Are We World Cup Material?

I was going to post this in the main match thread, but it got lengthy and touches upon a matter that has bothered me for sometime. We lost the match in the first leg in Tunisia, which I would argue speaks not only to the decline of Nigerian football but also the deepening decay of our society. I wat...

Re: TUNISIA 0 VS NIGERIA 0 GAME THREAD

I would have taken a draw before the game, but having watched it, I feel we threw it away. It's ok to go for a draw, but if your opponent fizzle out along the way--like Tunisia did in the last 30 minutes--you finish them off. This is a league system, and it is not a good result when you factor in th...

Our guys have stopped attacking when we need to do just that. They should finish off this game. It is rare to have Tunisia in a position we have now.

Man you have no clue what you are talking about. Ronaldo came out and said flat out he will only move if Madrid pay him the salary they offered and pay Man U. In other words he has ony interest in money, not "ambition". No loyalty and no honour. This is a slap in the face to Ferge, who ha...

Whoever told you such a transfer would happen during the January transfer season with both Madrid and United playing in the Champions League is either patently ill-informed or is making something up.

Maceo4: Here are some stats for you. Diarra is not even remotelythe worst passer on your team. He has a higher passing average than even Raul and Robinho. Apart from that, he is probably the best in the world in his primary duty, i.e., breaking up the opposing team's attack. It is facile for him to...

Re: WENGER WANTS AFRICAN CUP HELD EVERY 4 YEARS IN JUNE!

He has always been like that--no respect for African football, despite relying on African players at Arsenal. Many people see the logic in adapting the ANC calendar to wider processes of world football, but to suggest that ANC takes place every four years in June can only come from Wenger and his il...

I see that you are back with your hypocrisy. Where were you last season when Real Madrid colluded with FIFA to prevent Diarra from playing for Mali?

Well, Eto'o has made it abundantly clear that he is going to the ANC. In fact, every Barcelona player who have had anything to say on this issue in the past few days--Xavi, Puyol, Valdes, and Iniesta--have directly contradicted their president. It is this Toure guy that worries me. He has not said a...

FIFA will have the last word on this.

And I don't think they will lean toward the dismembering of the ANC. There is however not harm if the Saudis are doling out their money for a non-FIFA event.
