You are still a good player, don't let today get you down. You have a bright future ahead of you.

-George Abbey, you are a captain in the making and I hope you find a better club.

-Joseph Yobo, thank you for holding it down. Even though you had a few lapses here and there, you still did your thing.

-Vincent, you have proven your worth and I wish you the best of luck for the future.

-Osaze, you are the man.

Kanu, God bless you. I doubted you but you proved me wrong.

olofinjana is the "tall punisher" even though he's still too raw, but he still gat potential. 2 more years, he will be ready for the big stage.

He chose the semi-final to play his worst game.Good potential,though.Needed more help in the defensive midfield.

Seyi was really exposed today. He fumbled when we had the ball and hacked when they had it. He really wasn't ready for this stage. I wouldn't right him off just yet, but I wish Justice Christopher hadn't been hurt. He looked more promising.
Well, Seyi is still young and has room to grow. Hope he gets a better team soon.

Seyi is about "25" years old now. Time is not on his side right now!

Ha ha ha ha ha ha!!!

Man, what if he is like fine wine? getting better as he gets older....?

He is not far from "it", he just needs a good coach and more experience.

Seyi is not the finished article. Hopefully, he will get a good club and he will prosper. He is not the midfield general yet, rather he is more into fumbling his way around. But you cannot question his commitment though.

Roger Milla always had it.

Do you know that he was African player of the year in 1976?

Yujam: Now I can see why you say Obodo and Olofinjana ought to play together;

Seyi cannot lay a pass to save his life - well at least in this game; Obodo would've complimented him.

Dr. Wazobia · Post by **Dr. Wazobia** » Wed Feb 11, 2004 9:37 pm

Seyi just needs confidence. He is still very raw but I am certain that a good coach will unveil that hidden jewel.

Ghost · Post by **Ghost** » Wed Feb 11, 2004 9:50 pm

Clearly there is something likeable about Olofinjana. Everybody seems to like him. But not his game. Not based on this tournament. He looks athletic and fit but there is still too much missing.

Seyi messed up big time today. He was at fault for our loss. But well done SE. I am still proud of you. Beating Cameroon was the finale for me

This has got to be decent experience for the young lads, they represented.

realtrouble · Post by **realtrouble** » Wed Feb 11, 2004 10:53 pm

we did not have a team, instead we had 11 very good players that played their heart out.

I don't think Seyi should be blamed for the lost we forget that we had only 35% possession.

But I agree he is not the finish article and should be a squad player
