Re: 20 African Players to Watch out for in 2014

This isn't list of 20 best African players, but those players whose career will be of most interest.

Re: I suspect we will be playing the US on March 5

Mexican press reporting they play Nigeria, not Colombia on March 5th.

Re: Why are they all incompatible with our plans?

The thing bi say: Most of those are decent subs, many others are out of the team.

O yes... That African Cup of Nations was a true waste...

I agree the bench needs an overhaul, but lets not exaggerate.

Re: I have over 50 players on my list – Keshi

1. He will test 23 of them at the CHAN. 2. He can call up only foreign based stars for March 5th and drop some of the surefire starters for that date. As I see it: GK: No need for tests. The 3 keepers are known: Enyeama, Ejide and Agbim. Fullbacks: Unless Keshi recalls Taiwo and gives Balogun or Onu...

Re: Why an african country will not top FIFA rankings

From my understanding of the FIFA ranking the points a team earns relies heavily on the quality of the opposition, the confederation the opposing team belongs to and the fact that the game in question is a competitive game. 95% of the competitive games we play are CAF or regional games. Most teams ...

Re: CAMEROON: On search for new players in Euro for WC…

Cameroon have heavy talent in defence, so don't know what Umtiti will all. All in all good spots by the Cameroon FA: Umtiti, Bahebeck and Ngando all won gold with the French U20 team in this years Youth World Cup. Still think they should try out Alexis Yougouda Kada, because the one thing they are t...

Re: NEGREDO

This cat is the real deal. Pace, power, good in the air and quick feet. I say he is the second or third best striker in the EPL right now. What do you guys think? His finishing is mediocre, his first touch is often poor, positioning is suspect and he wastes a lot of opportunities. Even yesterday he...

It was a deflected shot. Enyeama would have saved it if not for that. I still say Enyeama wins this confrontation.

Re: History will be made. Every African team will advance

For Cameroon to qualify for the next round, they MUST win their matches against Mexico and Croatia. The one thing Cameroon has is a world class player; namely Samuel Eto'o. If on the day(s) he decides to play solely for the team and lift the team to a higher level, then we may stand a chance of qua...

Re: Is this a fair reflection of the top 10 goalies in the w

Let's not be frightened to say the truth. Best GKs currently are:

1) Vincent Enyeama
2) Manuel Neuer
3) Thibaut Courtois
4) Ganluigi Buffon
5) Tim Krul

Enyeama is the undisputed no 1.
