Re: We have refused to learn from the Asians in all spheres of activity
Yet again, knee jerk reactions
Yes African teams lost some games but when we project and start using tropes like naive (words inherrited from the colonial masters used by us to make us seem like we are making intelligent statement about ourselves), it shows we are operating from emotions and not calm, reasoned approach
If you don't put in the time, how can you get the results
Sometimes we also meet luck which can help and hurt us but the emotional handbagging is but entertaining and sad at the same time
Enjoy life, enjoy the game, if you really expect a change them be the change you want otherwise, just enjoy the games like every other fan on earth and not claim to be anything other than an armchair analyst

Re: We have refused to learn from the Asians in all spheres of activity
As usual you miss the point. This is not just about one game or even football exclusively. Read the damned thread title
Wha choo looking at?!
Re: We have refused to learn from the Asians in all spheres of activity
Scipio Africanus (she/him) is a yeye guy but this is what he said:
Definitely, Nigeria can learn from this attitude to national affairs. Football is just one sport asians have become good at. Our true potential is we ought to be ahead of them in football. As we see, we're falling behind in many other areas including track and field. We haven't harnessed our potential in sports despite the fact that we have all the natural talent as much as anyone else.Humility, sustained hard work, efforts towards the collective good, perseverance, accountability and honesty in conducting national affairs.

The Japanese will learn. They have a track record of sustained success in other spheres of human behaviour. Those are transferable skills.King Futcha wrote: ↑Mon Dec 05, 2022 6:50 pm stating the obvious Japan were quite naïve today. poor clearances into danger, passing up clear shooting opportunities to pass, not to mention the pks.
they too have a lot to learn.
I am not sure about us. We rely on the stars aligning and divine intervention rather the unsexy but necessary grift of doing the simple and disciplined things on a consistent basis. Attention to detail etc. you look at the Asian teams, they will match us for fitness time and again. In 1995, you were guaranteed we would steam roll them.
Bet you the Japanese or South Koreans are more likely to secure a semi-final berth than we are. What am I talking about, the South Koreans have already done that. They did it 20 years ago and we are still waxing lyrical about the 90s and a Nigerian team for all its skill set that skill set was not disciplined enough and ultimately underachieved
God bless and keep Nigeria and make his face shine on her undeserving as she may be.

Mr self denigrator, what exactly do you want us to learn from Asia? We already know how to get knocked out in the round of 16. What else is thereScipio Africanus wrote: ↑Mon Dec 05, 2022 4:55 pm Humility, sustained hard work, efforts towards the collective good, perseverance, accountability and honesty in conducting national affairs.
Look at how their teams are performing at the WC. Meanwhile we are still stuck in 1998, arguing about LC vs FC and all that nonsense. We are still unable to organize a piss up in a brewery. Abeg leave matta
I am backing Japan to make it to the quarters and beyond.
Cheers.

Mitsubishi, Suzuki, Honda, Toyota, Kawasaki, Nissan, Isuzu, Datsun, Hitachi, Kia, Hyundai, Samsung, Daewoo, LG, Sony, Panasonic, Akai and many more. Young Asians leaving college have their choice of world class companies AT HOME, to work for. These companies are also a steady source of funds for football and much more. These Japanese and South Koreans have already established very organized leagues pumping out a steady stream of technically accomplished footballers. They can choose to return home and get paid very well, IN THEIR OWN COUNTRY!
Meanwhile these old African cvnts scattered all over the world, thousands of miles away from their countries of origin want to pretend that everything is OK, that we have nothing to learn. Mgbo, MGBO MGBO !!!! Tufia! What kind of inferiority complex is this that one refuses to accept correction?!

Re: We have refused to learn from the Asians in all spheres of activity
Yes we are doing very well indeed. Japan has 7 wins at the World Cup, MORE THAN ANY AFRICAN COUNTRY. Their first World Cup was in 1998. Cameroon and Nigeria have been stinking up the WC since 1982 and 1994 respectively. Useless bunch of deluded cvnts!

Re: We have refused to learn from the Asians in all spheres of activity
@Scipio, Stuck in ‘98, for what? Re-runs of Rommedahl. Nothing to learn, the game has moved on. It’s a science and if you don’t have the Bunsen burners you’re all noble gas and no Earth metals.
Re: We have refused to learn from the Asians in all spheres of activity
You can look at that from another angle. Despite all the things were supposed to learn from them, they've been to the WC finals 8 times but have never gone past the 2nd round. Three African Nations have reached the QF.Scipio Africanus wrote: ↑Tue Dec 06, 2022 2:58 am Yes we are doing very well indeed. Japan has 7 wins at the World Cup, MORE THAN ANY AFRICAN COUNTRY.

You know South Korea has been to the World Cup semi finals, right? Which African country has done that? We have also been playing football much longer than Japan and Korea. Much longer.

Re: We have refused to learn from the Asians in all spheres of activity
Education. Healthcare. Transport. Work and Pensions. Shambolic in all the above, institutions requisite for the mildest standard of living. To expect anything other than absolute failure elsewhere borders on madness. Football is just another off licence in Sin City.

Big for nothing is the Nigerian way. Do you think the Japanese FA will allow the CEO of Mitsubishi or Toyota to visit the dressing room at half-time and address the players?

Re: We have refused to learn from the Asians in all spheres of activity
Scipio et al
I understand your frustration
I also feel we cannot shame or denigrate ourselves to success
We just have to get on with it
We need to have structures/ leadership in place and hold their feet to the fire
We all collectively must have that vision for success
Until that collective thinking is set we will struggle
I push back a lot on when folks here say Africans cannot play football or we are naive , while some may say it’s the hard truth , my response is, so why has that done to encourage our folks ?
I guess it’s the difference between saying “You are wrong, I am right“ and “this is how we can make things better, together “

Re: We have refused to learn from the Asians in all spheres of activity
Why would African teams want to learn from Asians in regards to football? Is their something uniquely Asian towards their football? And is their something distinctively African, so that all teams could learn something from Asian teams?
Btw Japan advanced in 2002 with a FC, was eliminated in 2006 with a FC, advanced in 2010 with a Local coach, was eliminated in 2014 with a FC and advanced in 2018 and 2022 with local coaches respectively.

Re: We have refused to learn from the Asians in all spheres of activity
I wonder if the same arguments regarding African football development on this thread have been repeated on past World Cup threads but nothing has changed since then
