Can we ever learn from history in Nigeria? I like JJ, but he is beginning to piss me off with his comments. Nigerians need to know if he wants to play for us or not? We need a leader who will lead from the front. JJ was part of the squad that almost lost the ticket for the WC2002, and it started fro...

Enyeama to Bolton?
According to today's News of the World, Nigerian goalkeeper, Vincent Enyeama is on his way to Bolton Wanderers alongside veteran striker, Les Ferdinand.
I guess that there is some truth to the fact that his one week period at Bolton was a prelude to his signing for the trotters.

ayo and theyemster, don't even bother to continue with conversation with these pro-CCC's. They will deny the evidence in front of their eyes and compare chalk and cheese. The fact that a team loses does not mean that they did not have a strategic gameplan. Algeria had one yesterday but lost, Nigeria...

Spot on ayo, I agree with your analysis of the match. JJ, Udeze, Obafemi did not appear to be fully fit. This was no suprise as they were coming off injuries or long lay-offs. Yak suprised me with his level of fitness despite not playing since the end of the season. I hope this is CCC's last match a...

What happened to the Obodo-Olofinjana DM axis that we have been going on about on the forum? How is this combo going to develop if we do not play them together as often as possible? I do not know what Lawal is doing in the team ahead of Obodo. I watched the Ireland, Jamaica and Rwanda matches and Ga...

Yes, the kit the women used in Sydney 2000 was a different design from that of the men. After the Olympics, the women started using the men's design. The women reverted to their design when they played aginst Arsenal women in Lagos and the friendly against South Africa which they won in SA. Then the...

Olofinjana should sign with monaco and forget about Wolves. Monaco offer him a bigger platform to better deals and he should think of the future. He would be playing in the Champions league and should not let any agent mess him about because they are looking for a bigger cut of transfer fees. I beli...

This chap is not serious about playing for the SE. He has been dealing with the NFA for many years and by now should know them very well. A lot of players have not met the deadline, but they have not been sent back. If he is interested in playing for the SE, he should get his arse to Abuja ASAP. How...

Talk IT, i agree with you totally on the issue of our 4 fast strikers. I believe with good coaching, the combination of Yak, Jag, Ogbeche, Martins and Uttaka, using whatever formation will tear defences apart. They have a combination of power and pace which scares defenders. Just like Wayne Rooney, ...

Should wives and girlfriends be allowed for SE......
..at major tournaments, just as it is done in the rest of the world. Casting my mind back to the Tunisia fiasco which led to the sack of Yak, Agali and Babayaro, I believe these incidents would have been avoided if partners are allowed to join the team at tournaments. It is asking too much for young...

Nice comments Oloye, by players past it, I meant the likes of Desailly, Lizarazu and out of form players like Trezeguet, Silvestre and Darcourt. yes, I am referring to the same Bernard mendy who was at Bolton. At the age of 21, he has improved in leaps and bounds since he returned to PSG. By the way...

France made the mistake of hanging on to players who were past their best just like the SE at times. Phillipe Mexes, who is one of the most sought after defenders in Europe was left behind at home for a Mikael Silvester, who put virtually every foot wrong. Patrice Evra of Monaco would have done a be...

Quality as usual from Mystic, I would add Uche Kalu and Osaze to the list. Kudos, to you for putting Rabiu Afolabi on the list. His exclusion has been a great oversight as we still need good defenders. On the issue of Okocha, I think that there is the need for the NFA and the player to decide which ...

After a lot of brainstorming, I believe the solution to the clash of date is that either the match is played late on Friday or very early on Saturday i.e. btw 6-7am, thereby allowing the players to attend NK25's wedding or NK25 has his wedding very early on the same day so that the players can atten...

Wayne has stolen Obagoal's thunder!!
Watching Wayne Rooney at the European Championship, made me wonder what is going on in Obafemi Martins mind. He was foolishly advised to stay away from CAN2004, a competition in which he would have been acclaimed as a superstar. He is as good as Rooney if not better and he would have taken defences ...
