For me, he is the real deal and was always the real d...

Frankly, I laud HGaladima for the position that he is taking. I am surprised that some of you think this is about Ogunjobi. No, it isn't. Afterall, Ogunjobi and Galadima were at loggerheads. This is about what is right and what is wrong. Apparently, some of you would have been easily swayed to forge...

I hope that if CCC is sacked, that Nigeria would be assured of getting a better coach. However, if he is replaced with someone who does not produce better results then one would have to wonder why. Replacing the coach should clearly be justified with some conviction that the next guy would be better...

I saw both players and actually saw Ilerika from his very first year in the national team until his career was over. IMO, Ilerika was good but he cannot be better than JJ. Yes, there are several players during his era who were better than some of our starters today but not in this case. JJ is a bett...

Interesting discussion. However, is 3SC not continuing what they have done in recent times by signing big names who are ageing with some hope that they may still have some game in them.

Ilerika-With all due respect it is impractical to compare one era to another. It is also somewhat self-serving to trumpet your horn against Okocha. You were a great player and so is Okocha.
