Re: Report emerges on NFF involvement in Super Eagles Player selection

I see the same idiotic arguments being thrown about. Why do we defend this nonsense. Instead of following the successful models of Senegal, Algeria, Morocco, we are going back to the stone age. Stone age methods will bring you stone age results. Bet on it. How many of those successful models you re...

Re: Finidi & Shorunmu sacked as SE assistants

Is the NFF is letting go off coaches to cut cost? The NFF seems even more cash strapped than normal these days. Lack of funds blended with corruption and lack of accountability leaves Nigerian football in dire times Impact of not qualifying for world cup. Loss of income from missing the world cup.

Re: Our Osimhen vs Torino and he hangs

Really wish Osimhen had a "placed curler" in his locker. He would be unstoppable. Who's stopping him now? Nothing. But he could be in Haaland and Mbappe levels if he had more shot variety. Composure. Dribbling. Left foot. Thought he was in Tammy Abraham's level or has anything changed?

Proper spending by CP before taking the job. He should have declined the job if his conditions were not met. This is a lesson to all of us in our careers.

Re: Report emerges on NFF involvement in Super Eagles Player selection

I don’t necessarily have a problem with a quota system to help improve the local league as Brazil does a similar thing, but you have to give those 3-4 spots to the best in the local league rather than some yum yum fc no name. Crazy stuff…but hey this is Naija… According to the report it was the Coa...

Re: Report emerges on NFF involvement in Super Eagles Player selecti

Wow! This new NFF is a scandal. :shock: The list makes more sense now, looks like Peseiro picked only players he’s comfortable playing and no new players. The 4 players picked by Nff are those that will not play. Musa, 2 goalies and Bamiye. I think Pesseiro played it safe by sticking with what he k...

Re: SE list for Guinea Bissau is out guys

Toyin Ibitoye has come out on Twitter to say Bamayi was scouted and picked by Peseiro himself while he was training with CHAN team. I find this even more ludicrous. This player has been a part of home based eagles, u20 and apparently u23 as well. All the time as a player with a non existent club. T...

Nigeria is a cursed nation. We have cursed ourselves. Nobody to blame. Tbh, I’m still surprised by the rubbish list released today. This is the 1st or 2nd squad released since Pinnick left and it certainly feels like a new CBN is in charge. I wouldn’t blame Pesiero too much because they owe him mon...

Re: SE list for Guinea Bissau is out guys

Disappointing squad. Another squad that could do with at least 2 more midfielders. This would have been my changes: Adeleye for Aniagboso: Impressed by his height, not necessarily his abilities. Most of the saves I've seen him make are routine. Ebuehi for Bameyi Adarabioyo (if eligible) for Omeruo ...

It's his company that is worth 7 Billa. His own net worth is not known. His other company iWEB which was valued at $145M 10 years ago actually completed a purchase of Tingo. Perhaps iWEB is Meta and Tingo is Facebook (I am not sure). but if we go by the average equity of founders in tech companies ...

Re: Our Osimhen vs Roma and he hangs again with goal of the Season

Roma has balled big time in this game, if they had a Vic and Kava, they would have been up like 4 goals today. Jose has really done a lot for this club.. I would love to see Jose back at Chelsea I was surprised that Roma did not park this bus. This is their best game so far. Yes they lost but there...
