Edit: And Omosuzi too.

Re: A look at Nigerias Depth Chart (Every Position)
excellent thread bros.
We have been brainwashed by the Premier League that it's the best in the world. Nonsense. It's the best brand
Roy Keane: ITV 02/25/14
He says that we are currently "brainwashed" into believing that the Premier League is the best competition in the world, and that we are now a long way off dominating the Champions League again.
Gary Neville: Mirror: 12/23/14
I think Spain’s by far the best league.

When people try to use you to gain relevance, just ignore them. It pains them even more
Re: A look at Nigerias Depth Chart (Every Position)
Sammy Ameobi is a baller. I have seen him play once for Newcastle and i was surprised by how skillful he was. This coming season if given the chance i believe he will shineSunset wrote:ogasir wrote:Where is Bright Dike and Shola Ameobi?
