Re: How many world class players do we have?

How many of our players are world class players at their relative positions? Good enough to be a starter for a top 5 team in a top 5 league in the Epl, Spain, Germany, Italy or France. I think we have 6. Osihmen, Okoye, Bassey, , Boniface, Chukwueze and Sanusi. I know a lot of people don’t rate San...

Re: OMERUO on Tianimu..........

What was his performance during the game? Did he do well? He did well as a debutant but no starter on the team has anything to fear. He is not starting for Nigeria based on what he did at this game. PLayers like him wouldnt bench any CD now but in another 2 years after proper brooding, and constant...

Re: Can Anyone Guess Where CIV did their pre-tournament Camp?

I don't send Peseiro. Ive always felt he didnt deserve to be the SE coach. I watched the SEE all through the group stage and knockout but i refused to watch the final because I got mentally fatigue with watching the SE playing Jangbulaye, defensive, high work rate football.

2023 EAGUS 1. The coach: The jury is out on this coach. He lacks AFCON experience, his team has not been inspiring but he is trying hard to play an attacking brand of football. I was never a Fan of Peseiro but im praying he makes me eat the humble pie. 2. TEAM PLAY: Physicality: They have some phys...

The Coach : Keshi was a co...
