Re: Women's World Cup 2023
What a master class from Japan, took Spain to the cleaners. 4 zip, the Japanese are very prolific in front of goal Japanese tactics were superb in this game, let Spain tiki taka away and as soon as the ball breaks, make sure your speedsters are on the front foot, This is a very good Spanish team th...

Re: Men at Work, Russell Crowe, Chris Hemsworth, Paul Hogan, Antony Albanese, your girls took a hell of a beating!
Russell Crowe is from New Zealand It's not that simple. He also has ties to Australia, and Australia do claim him. He is one of many things that Australia and New Zealand fight over. Lamingtons and Pavlova are others. You are right, I was being a bit churlish in truth. He is more Aussie than Kiwi.

Re: How come Croatia with a tiny population
How do you ensure balance? A complete team? It isn't easy. We're about to go through a major transition here as Modric retires. I don't know we can take up the slack. Mate, We would never agree on where Modric seats in the pantheon of Croatian footballers, still my third best ever Croatian attackin...

Re: Eze called up to England
What a fool! He made the worst choice for us and also for him! I disagree, he made the best choice for him and us. HE gets to hover around the periphery of the England squad, minutes here and there. Every single cap he gets fills him with pride as that is what he always wanted growing up. WE get an...

Re: Jordan Torunarigha agrees to play for Nigeria
I saw young Iorfa live 2 months ago playing for Wednesday, admittedly the whole team were poor that day but I think Dominic did us a favour insulting us. His son is a tall guy that eats up a lot in the air but very poor positionally and not comfortable being run at.

Re: It’s Nigeria vs Argentina again
I am glad I didn't watch that match live and only saw the highlights. The boys did well though to be as solid as they were at the back, I don't recall any one to one chances from them.
Good game, good result

Re: How many Nigerians are playing for Luton Town?
There are at least 6 in the first team squad. Most of them are London boys though as Luton is easily commutable from the smoke.

Re: So what is Eze's deal?
He can't play on the same team as Iwobi. This makes absolutely no sense, Eze can play the Iwobi role when Iwobi is not fit or injured, are you going to keep relying on Iwobi forever? what then is the point of having depth in all positions. Eze doesn't want to play for the Super Eagles but seeing as...

Re: Napoli and Osimhen celebration for scudetto.
Makes zero sense. If Lazio can’t mathematically catch up then the league title is over. Lazio can still catch up, there's 21 points to play for and Napoli is 17 points ahead so the league isn't over yet. Maybe they still think we are playing 2 points for a win. Shows how rumours can easily take hold.

Re: England snubs its Nigerian options
I am not sure Eze and Iwobi can play together anyway. Why can't they play together? Eze can play on the left or central midfield position he has also started many games on the left side of the attack in a 433 formation. Cito is right in that one can be an option but will Eze want to come off the be...

Re: Enyeama named best African Goalie of all time
My own personal opinion is that Ansah is the best African keeper ever.
In fact I will give Badou Zaki a slight nudge ahead of the trio of Enyeama, Nkono and Antoine Bell.

Re: Muda Lawal
He was the one player at the stadium every day climbing the staircase nonstop for a long time, sometimes even after their training sections at Liberty stadium and later at Adamasingba Stadium.

Re: IBADAN PITCH URINATION EARNS A MERE $1000 FINE
I know the 80's are a long time away but I have never been in a Stadium where I haven't seen a player urinate in a corner before the start of the match, full stadium o, empty stadium o. Not every match granted but all levels from LDFA through to National League division 1. The times they are changing.
