Re: What are your top 5 best looking, iconic international kits?
Gotta be honest: Cameroon stands out as the most iconic kit of Africa. With Nigeria a close 2nd. You know who's playing when you see these kits. I'd like to say South Africa, but not enough success. In Europe, it's Italy, Germany, Holland, Spain, and Croatia that are iconic. In South America, Brazi...

Re: How come Croatia with a tiny population
Just to share, Croatia did a great job reaching the European Nations League final. Losing to Spain on PKs. I am proud of the team, cannot complain...as we played to maximum potential. The margins are thin in any game, let alone between 2 finalists. This one came down to Croatia not having 1 top cla...

Wisone, BTW: I saw Nigeria and Guinea-Bissau trade 1-0 results in the past 2 games.

Re: How come Croatia with a tiny population
Seems that Croatia has some talented lads in its next generation. Croatia 🇭🇷 U21s beat England U21 2-1 - away in England. Croatia was winning 2-0 until England scored a penalty with 3 minutes remaining. Croatia’s victory is all the more impressive when one sees the quality of players in the England...

Re: How come Croatia with a tiny population
Mate, remember when I said that when Osimhen, Moffi, and Bassey are eventually sold, their combined transfer fee will be in the £100-150 million range? I was wrong. Osimhen keeps on inflating his eventual transfer fee (he scored another 2 goals in the Champions League tonight). Osimhen alone will c...

Re: How come Croatia with a tiny population
Mate, the irony is that Croatia 🇭🇷 is the opposite: it has a good young GK and one of the best defenders in the world, yet is “light” in the center forward position. I wonder: in a fantasy world where Osimhen and Lookman were Croats, would their extra cutting edge in attack have helped Croatia win ...

Re: How come Croatia with a tiny population
The problem is that Osimhen is ace for Napoli but has a habit of getting injured for Nigeria’s crucial matches. eg. he missed the last AFCON due to injury and missed the crucial 2 legged final World Cup final play-off game against Ghana 🇬🇭 after getting Covid. He is yet to play for Nigeria 🇳🇬 at an...

Re: How come Croatia with a tiny population
Lookman had been a bit nomadic and bounced around a few clubs before leaving RB Leipzig to join Atalanta - where he seems to have settled. Meanwhile, Osimhen seems determined to increase his transfer value to monstrous values and make Napoli an absolute fortune when they eventually have to sell him...

Mate - I am not sure if you are still monitoring young Nigerian players, but FYI the two top scorers in Italy 🇮🇹 are both Nigerians (Osimhen and Lookman). https://twitter.com/JacobsBen/status/1619451193528578048?s=20&t=QObdYUiyB6u7Wa7anDWN7A Lookman is new to me, but I've been following Osimhen...

Re: How come Croatia with a tiny population
@Mate, Bobby Prosineki was near genius, sadly he was destined to hopscotch across the thin line which separates genius from madness. That alone, contributed to his genius. Irony. Boban was quality. Pure quality. Cerebral. Prosinecki was a bi unhinged. He took a lot of liberties with his diet and he...

The difference here is the US women national team are more successful (significantly ) than their male counterparts The bigger issue is consumerism and I see some changes in the women’s game as they are attracting gate fees so it’s a matter of time The so called success factor is distorted to justi...

Re: How come Croatia with a tiny population

He is 100% correct. But he is part of the machine that created this modern social media driven culture of nonsense. The doublespeak is amazing on this issue. The ideologists emphasize performance rather than generated revenue...as if there is an equivalence between women and men in their respective ...

You guys are both my men...but I have to say Ohsee is deluded when he lessons the fact that Pele had IMMENSE players around him...whereas Maradona and Messi didn't. :) I still tip Pele because he was the most complete and had peak athleticism.
