Re: Rashidi Yekini Playing as A Midfielder Against Sporting CP in 1993
Yekini was not a complete forward. Thats not accurate. He was great in many aspects but certainly not complete. He could neither head and did not have much success as a lone striker especially in a low block. The most complete striker that Nigeria has ever produced is Thomson Usiyan, bar none. Osim...

Rashidi Yekini Playing as A Midfielder Against Sporting CP in 1993 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Kwo5T7kn_rY I've never seen Yekini in #8 jersey ever. The man was dropping deep, collecting the ball and running with it. He was ditching out passes, running on the wings and everything. Have you ever...

Re: Tolu is Business-Like in his Approach to Striking
I'll take Onuachu ahead of this Tolu. I'm not sold on him at all. Is there a different Onuachu or the one we have been seeing all these years? Bros, let’s be serious. Onuachu, Awoniyi, Sadiq are not worthy of any more call ups. They have exhausted all their chances. Tolu is raw but there is somethi...

He's not interested talking nonsense and dancing on social media, he's just focused on banging in goals from all angles.

Re: South African Pundit Gives Opinion on Eagles' Weakness.....
We can use Ademola in that role. Obi and Okocha are generational talents, they come once every 20 years. There's no Okocha in our local league.

Re: Best Super Eagles Right Back Ever?
While I respect his play, I find it hard to accept that he is the best ever in that position. He's the Ben Iroha of RB. That's why he's voted best defender in the EPL. Ben Iroha was not better than Celestine Babayaro. Ben was a better defender. We agree to disagree Babayaro cannot start in 1994 squ...

Do not forget that Emenalo was also in that 1994 squad (and was playing for a third division team at the time). His post football career as as an administrator has redeemed him and made people forget that he was not good enough to play international football ⚽️. Eguavon was the worst player in the ...
