But why was musiala, sane, koman all keep on the bench until dy were down 4-1. What motivated Bayern to hire kompany as a coach.

Any player can just walk in to play in Bayern team and perform the same magic the first team will do same as Pep's team. Its all about the SYSTEM.. Na my oga tslk am


As for the other one - coaching this days is about who knows who..

José Peseiro moved Super Eagles from 36th in the world to 28th and 3rd in Africa. ⬆️
Finidi George moved Super Eagles from 28th in the world to 39th and 6th in Africa. ⬇️
Austine Eguavoen moved Super Eagles from 39th in the world to 36th and 4th in Africa. ⬆️

Sharp 😏

*The image says 40th but that's inaccurate, it's 39th.

Well, your ratings doesn’t matter and anyone that wants to sur weah needs to match or sur this award. Do you think it’s easy for any African man to win a Balon d’or in an era of Prime Ronaldo fenomeno, Zidane, Maldini, stoickov, Romerio, baggio, batistuta, del piero, laudrup, OMG the early 90’s had so many Football legends and a forking African man won the Balon d’or. In African football, weah is greater than Etoo, drogba, okocha, Milla, Salah, Mane, Mahrez and is a youngster that you want to compare him to weah.
R9 and Zidan are not yet in their prime when Weah won his balon d'or,that being said,
Anyone who follows football and want to be fair will it that Eto'o is the greatest African footballer for now.

His achievements in football sures that of George Weah,
balon d'or is the only honor Weah has over Eto which he came close to winning.

Eto has 3 champions league trophies to George Weah's none.

Eto'o has 2 AFCONs to George Weah's none

Eto'o has almost double of George Weah's career goals.
Weah never played in a world cup game before.

So winning balon d'or is not the only thing that makes one player greater than another,u have to consider other things as well.

From observing him from afar and reading analysis of Nigerian sports stakeholders about him he looks highly qualified.

I personally read his policy paper when he was running for NFF President which I found quite detailed and impressive compared to his opponent. He's very qualified but will the system allow him perform?

Psv R9 was very lethal my boy and as long as no African player can hold this title, WEAH remains the GOAT. If it’s easy, Etoo for run am

So once a player wins a balon d'or, he automatically becomes greater and better than those unable to have won it,is that what u are saying?

By the way,I'm not your boy.

95? Ronaldo was just starting his career in Europe, Eto had 2 of the greatest players ever to contend with, he had Ronaldinho in the form of his life. Eto was consistent and that could be seen by his African footballer of the year awards 2003,04,05 then 5 years later in 2010 while Weah had just one great season then fizzled out, he couldn’t even win back to back African footballer of the year award

Mehnnn. West African teams are good.
All teams in group B were level on same 3pts and goal difference of zero. Nigeria just topped the group because we scored 2goals same with Cote D'Ivoire while Burkina Faso scored 1 goal.

CAF should change this freaking method of qualifications please.

Our U17 golden eaglets and Ghana lost their place in U17 AFCON because of this wicked qualifying process
