Re: Why is there no ABA organization?

Better Argentina and Messi wins than that racist demonic country France with its black slaves/ mascots. Last time i checked Argentina did not colonize damn near half of Africa and then force the same poor countries to pay tax at the same time. Of course, but Argentina mysteriously disappeared all i...

Re: Onana: Cameroon goalkeeper retires from international football

His replacement looked OK and promising. Certainly better at crosses than Onana. Funny how the Eto’o thread updates stopped when Cameroon were officially knocked out of the WC after two games. Some people believed the 419-style scam he was pulling on the Camerounese people that they were going to w...

My heart is with Morocco but my head wants France to win, just to reduce the chances of Messi and Argentina winning it all. I don't think Morocco will be able to challenge Messi and Argentina in a possible grand finale. So, .... allez les Bleus (can't believe I actually said that) :oops: :oops: :oo...

Re: 9ja will Win Nada Without a Good Goalie!

I think the fact that Uzoho was rushed into being the No 1 goalie in 2018 when we had no good options might have actually hurt his development. He was a solid goalie that had much to learn but pressures of being the No 1 and unreasonable expectations of Nigerians have not worn well on him. I think ...

See how good goalies are saving their teams at the WC. Remember who was in goal the last time Nigeria won anything meaningful? Bingo! We didn't qualify for the World Cup because of poor goalies. Just swap 2014 Enyeama into Eguavoen's team, and they would have qualified for the Word Cup. One player ...

Yes we are doing very well indeed. Japan has 7 wins at the World Cup, MORE THAN ANY AFRICAN COUNTRY. Their first World Cup was in 1998. Cameroon and Nigeria have been stinking up the WC since 1982 and 1994 respectively. Useless bunch of deluded cvnts! You try to correct a useless person, before you...
