Re: Our Osimhen vs Udinese and he scores (2-0)
Injuries prevented him from attaining his full potential. If he did he would have been one of the best defensive midfielders in the history of Nigerian football. Likewise Justice Christopher. Anytime I see Udinese on TV, I remember Chris Obodo. He would have surpassed Oliseh but for unjuries. Na lie...

Re: Goalie situation 90+ days from Afc
Even with John Noble. I have never advocated for him to be the Super Eagles goalkeeper. The only statement I have made here in his defense is that he has the right to aspire to play in the National team like any other player in Nigeria. In case you have forgotten, many here used to hound the guy as ...

Re: Goalie situation 90+ days from Afc
You do not understand the politics that go on in the National team. You should talk some of our top prospects and find out what they go through. @1naija, This is the sad truth nobody wants to talk about. Akpeyi for instance was demonised because of one backwater league Cyprus based goalkeeper, who i...

Re: Great Nigerian Defenders?
Many of you suffer from short memory. You do not appreciate talent and performance. Yobo is the second best defender Nigeria has produced, period. The first being Taribo west. Yobo proved himself at the world stage week in week out for over a decade. No Nigerian defender apart from Taribo West did t...

Re: Goalie situation 90+ days from Afc
John Noble and Apkeyi are victims of tribalism in our football. I was going to say Ochoa but he is listed as 6-3. He doesn't look that tall. Height will not help Adeleye given his propensity to chops goal in almost every game. He makes it a point to conceded at least one goal per game. As we speak h...

Height doesn't matter. Campos and the current Mexico goalies are that tall. It Adeleyes record for club and country that matters. He conceded 2 goals in his first start for Nigeria.
