Enugu II, the club vs country row will always be there but is significantly enhanced when the players have little respect for the coach. Besides, look at how Shakes Mashaba has been treated by Man U? They have no respect for him and he constantly rang them to get in touch with Fortune but was rebuff...

Mystic, as soon as the 2006 World Cup draws were announced, I sent a message to Ogunjobi, asking him to try and speak to the other FAs concerned and see if the majority of the games could be played in Fifa windows. No one has heard from him. Just wait and see the confusion that will ensue when the g...

Geminikoat, I can tell you now that nothing is definite. Nothing is down in black and white. There are only suggestions that games might take place. As far as I am aware, Ogunjobi has not said yes to any of the offers put to him so far. I have passed on a few enquiries I got and we are all still wai...

CCC has no blame whatsoever in this. It is 100% Ogunjobi's fault. What kind of sec gen of an FA does not draw up an annual calendar of friendlies before the year starts? By now, he should have pencilled in all friendlies to be played in 2004. Do you know that Australia have written to the NFA asking...

Ayo, surely this can't be same Okoronkwo we all marvelled about not too long ago that you've shred to pieces. Surely it can't be. IAG, we have to tell ourselves certain bitter truths. The following players performed well in the ANC and/or World Cup but have been found seriously wanting for their cl...

Rogermilla, I would like to watch a tape of that game to make my own observations. I am a big fan of Tchato but I am not yet comvinced about Mbami or Djemba-Djemba in central defence. Here are my concerns with the Cameroonian team and my reasons why I believe Senegal wil win Tunisia 2004: (1) Idris ...

Jody Craddock had a bad game against Arsenal but on the whole has been solid all season. Let us compare and contrast him with Okoronkwo: (1) Craddock is good in the air whereas Okoronkwo is woeful. (2) Cradddock can stand toe to toe with attackers and shephard them wide, whereas Okoronkwo is more li...

(1) Geminikoat, Yobo is Nigeria's best central defender. He MUST play at the heart of the defence. (2) Look at how Okoronkwo got used by Henrik Larson in the World Cup, how he was unable to jump against Argentina and how he gets benched at Wolves (3) Taribo West has no pace whatsoever. Look at how D...

Cameroon can be beaten by the current Eagles squad but alas the current technical crew has negated the effects of any superior talent.

In the past, you would have one player who has a problem coming to the ANC but when you have half of your team - and your best players for that - shunning the squad, you know you have serious problems. In Mali 2002 and Ghana/Nigeria 2000, South Africa had virtually a complete squad. If the current c...

A burnt out JJ could spell disaster for Nigeria, primarilly because CCC will not be able to replace him if he is not firing on all cylinders. Remember what happened against Senegal in Mali when Amodu did not have the balls to pull him offf at half time?

Ijapa, Enyeama is a brilliant chap and one of the nicest guys you will ever meet. Unlike some of his so-called fans on this forum, he is the first to acknowledge his mistakes and shortcomings. He works hard on them and I believe that with a bit of European coaching, he will mature into a very good k...

Yemster, do you think Yakubu is as good as any of the following:

Obafemi Martins
Julius Aghahowa
John Utaka
Bartholomew Ogbeche
Chukwudi Nworgu
Peter Ijeh

Pa J, I think you havbe been drinking too much Chrismas ogogoro. Oya, go and chill out. You need to "dry."

Ayo, Please mention the names of the players that told you that or do you want us to take this info as one of your trademarks? Pens, I believe Chukwu has a good idea of what the players think of him. To his credit, he tries to work around it and does not try to boss himself about or claim he knows ...

(1) Mandoza, believe it or not, the major problem with your boys is they have no confidence in the coach. (2) When players have no confidence in a coach or are aware of the fact that they know better than him, they shun national call ups. Look at the situation with Ike Shorunmu, Sunday Oliseh and un...

...or why did he go off in thr 51st minute? Liverpool 3-1 Bolton Liverpool notched a confidence-boosting victory as they brushed an off-par Bolton aside at Anfield. Three headed goals saw the Merseysiders to victory with Sami Hyypia opening the scoring after 30 minutes. An Ivan Campo effort went jus...

Portsmouth 2-0 Spurs Portsmouth won for the first time since early November after two Patrik Berger free-kicks ensured Harry Redknapp's side climbed out of the bottom three. Berger first hit a long-range free-kick into the net soon after the restart. The Czech Republic international then repeated th...

Even if the likes of Enyeama, Okoye, Rotimi and Ejide as twice as talented as the likes of Shorunmu, Egbo and Akanji, no coach worth his salt would play them, simply because it is just not done.


Pa J, you have been drinking too much Christmas gari and it has been affecting your eyesight!

Eze, I challenge you to show me where I have launched any personal attack against Chukwu or made any derogatory remarks about him. He has not done anything wrong as far as I am concerned and if there is any way I can help him, I would be happy to do so. Why do you have a problem with the truth. Just...

Ikwerreman, Vincent Enyeama is a personal friend and I will stand up to anyone who condemns him, however, this is not about personalities. Let us look at the facts. In a major tournament like the ANC, this is what you are looking for from your goalkeeper: (1) The ability to command his penalty box (...

I honestly find it pretty worrying that people are able to call our SE players in camp and get info from them... Even if the NFA does not ban the use of cell phones in camp, these guys should have the good sense to refrain from talking to journalists about camp news. While I like getting the update...
