Re: Our Osimhen vs Monza and he scores
Wait till the armchair critics come and tell us that's only because Drogba is smaller than Victor.

Re: 26 WCQ - Have we fumbled?
Colo mentality is real. Some one need to ask him how many players from the Diaspora play for Senegal and his Cisse an indigenous coach? Still shaking my head. No wonder Nigeria football or Nigeria in general is in a bad state. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P47m5pmGLdQ&t=646s Thanks ohenhen. A...

Re: 26 WCQ - Have we fumbled?
The logic behind hiring a coach after wasting the two friendlies has to be the dumbest move ever. NFF wants a foreign coach based on inside report and do not plan to make Finidi the longterm coach for the qualifiers. But yet, they have Finidi managing the two friendlies. Just let that shitzs sink i...

Re: Alex Iwobi to retire from the SE?
Did he actually say he was retiring or are people reading into his social media activities more than they should . Dude may just be taking a social media break In any case its not uncommon for players to indicate their retirement after a tournament disappointment only to come back to the fold . I r...

I agree. They gained experience and I salute them for what they accomplished in this tournament.

Re: Nigeria vs CIV (2pm CT, 9pm Nigerian time )
The success of this Afcon has made this a massive massive game. Is it usually this big or its because we haven't been in the finals for years. It's a number of factors including the world being more connected thanks to social media apps, more African team members having dual roots that helps genera...

Re: William Troost-Ekong -- Captain, my captain!
Thanks theDunamis. Excellent write up. However, I have to own my $#% :) I am one of those "wishy washy" fans who thinks he's past it. My opinion was based on watching him play for the SE live at Dallas. He was wish washy. I also followed his club career and watch his games. He doesn't see...

Re: So good players exist in NPFL?
Both of you are confusing quality with talent . Talent is not enough We have ALWAYS had the talent... There are no decent clubs in the NPFL. Some of them like Remo are making efforts, but its not nearly enough and the overall environment outside their control remains very poor. I believe the highli...

Re: Anyone who abuses Our Osimhen again on this forum
Yet, some folks will sit in their comfy chairs behind their 100-inch TV screens (while drinking zobo) and be cursing these players. Others will hide behind their computers and be venting expletives. You will find everything about life on this forum. That is the thing that pisses me off the most. Th...

Re: William Troost-Ekong -- Captain, my captain!
Well said one of the MVPs on the team. On field contribution plus all the intangibles. This is why some fans should exercise caution when saying players are past it simply because of a temporary dip in form Exactly this. And this was one of the reasons behind my penultimate paragraph.

Brilliant tribute, theDunamis. :thumb: Maybe I’m still on a high at the moment, but of all our SE captains I’ve witnessed, there are three that stand out: Christian Chukwu, Stephen Keshi and Okey Okechukwu.

Captain, my captain! Ekong's leadership in this team has been nothing short of stellar. His leadership qualities plus his situational awareness are exceptional and laudable. And his situational awareness is not just about things directly related to the match at hand alone but also in relation to hum...

King EKong take a bow You're a true leader 💪 A real Super Eagle. His penalty kicks were just perfect. The first one today was that of someone who had done his homework on Williams who always jumps. Second was unstoppable, a perfect kick. Then there's the one he took for the team, that yellow card. ...

Their hold up play in anticipation of a PK shootout was their undoing. Congratulations to the SE! AFCON Final, here we come! Well said, man. I am so sick and tired o...
