Ola Aina is currently the best left back in England! No more no less! What a performance yesterday!

Na so

forgiveness:


So, these are the technocrat, abi?

Frank Nweke wey study Zoology na technocrat? Abeg, what did he do as minister of Youth?

Soludo technocrat before his appointment as Minister!!!? Who dash am? Person wey be lecturer.

El rufai!!!! Chaiiiiiiiiiiiii!!!?

Almost all those you mentioned were politicians before they were appointed.

Na only when e reach tribalism we go see you for this thread

jihday:
I disagree even club sides that should have a bit more guarantee and stability mostly give 2 or 3 years, only recently extended Nagelsman’s deal to 2026. You need to be sure of what you are doing before handing a coach a long term deal, if the coach turns out to be a dunce how do you wiggle out of paying unnecessary compensation fee after you sack the coach

That's the point, there is not 100% belief in the coach you are hiring and you are already implying it in the contract, it could work both ways by motivating said coach to try harder or demotivating a coach from implementing long term plans, eitherways top players and coaches are given full belief and 4-5 years minimum contracts ala (Pep, Klopp) only washed out or second rate players/coaches or certain circumstances will a top coach be given a short contract

jihday:
so you prefer a 5 years contract? I think 2 is fair

4 or 5 years show you have enough confidence in whom you are hiring

chrisooblog:
According to Charles Anazodo new SE manager has been given a 2 year deal and will be announced before weekend.

https://x.com/chaplinez70/status/1783124831388471607

2 year contract means they don't trust the person they are giving the job and the person himself does not see a long term future in the job

Setup for failure

You know what's coming for you

mrwilliams9:
If Boniface improves his finishing, he’ll have a much higher ceiling than Osimhen. I also like that Boniface is also a fan of the game and banters fans and players alike.

The professional game can be a bit stale with players having these pre-coached media interviews.

What separates Osimhen from Boniface is not any footballing ability but the mentality and hunger

Longneck:
Osimhen move to PSG
Score and win trophies for fun
Win Apoty back to back
Spend like 4 to 5 seasons


Then move to the EPL
And enjoy the beautiful game without any pressure
Spend like 3 to 4 seasons there


Then move to Saudi Arabia
Enjoy your life and make more money
Then retire


Perfect career

2 seasons in Psg and move to Epl in his prime would be the perfect career

TheSuperNerd:
The whole of Bayer Leverkusen excited to have their Naija wonderboy back from the sidelines.

Boniface is back for the Final march towards the Title.

Boniface about to be crowned Bundesliga Champion and A Major Euro league winner BEFORE HARRY KANE😭😭😭😭😭

Harry Kane is still the best striker in the last 10 years, I don't know why people use trophies to mock him

oloriooko:
wacthing manC highlights see what Pep has turned Rodri into wish Ndidi had met a coach of Pep's calibre to help mold him into a robust DM

There is something Rodri has Ndidi does not, Pep refines attributes he doesn't create them

Na this Ndidi una wan play 10

Marjoribanks:
I watched the highlight of Philip Otele and was amazed at how technical the boy is.
No wonder he is wanted by Brighton to be loaned to USG.

We played two friendlies and such player was not invited?
Well even out of the 26 players invited only 14 played. Pathetic coaching!

What a name

Odunayaw:
He is talking of the Napoli v Atlanta game

Ok benching Lookman at this stage by anybody is foolish

TheLoneCitizen:
The audacity to not start Ademola Lookman

Like I can't understand it, this was my reaction when I saw the lineup

forgiveness:


Findi used his own mouth to say.....wetin dis one one play by stating categorically and I quote "if we had our injured strikers available, we would have changed the one on the pitch immediately. Losing two strikers forced us to play wide and as an aggressive team"

As you can see, nobi me talk am. He expressed on the field and in words.

Why you come carry am for head like gala?

Are you trying to exonerate him? No bi tribalist you bi bi dat?

Okay, you're defending a co worker.

For your mind the reason Finidi George didn't play Umar was because he was hausa, not because he has not impressed in any of the multiple chances given to him in the NT?

Finidi hype died in one day

Samueltemi337:
XI

Lol

ChrisKels:


What he needs now is a stable ground to develop his talent not being thrown from one ground to another in the name of loan. That was what nearly destroyed Awoniyi’s talent. When Awoniyi was parading himself as a Liverpool player moving from one loan to another, I wrote to him directly under Oma Akatigba tweet that he needed to leave Liverpool to be counted and Awoniyi himself gave that a thumbs up, next window he severed ties with Liverpool and the rest is history. Omeruo ruined his talent ing Chelsea, same as the Nwakali brothers. You don’t go to England as an untested player. Once you are bought with intention to loan you out, forget it.

typicalgamer:


Ndidi has no qualities of a CM don’t send our midfield 10 years back into the past

There’s sparks ⚡️ here and there from him doesn’t make him a CM

ed

TheLoneCitizen:
Mikel Obi 2.0

Not even, Mikel has two offers on the table, this chap had an offer and a trial and he chose the trial

Onuku

Meliforme:
I hope to see the combination of Awaziem and Omeruo in tomorrow's game, not just for the defensive duties they provide, but for the crisp ing and seamless transitions to midfield.

Will like to see them too for their lack of pace against Mali's forward line

Philosopher1979:


If he does well on loan he can make it.
He just has to cut it in the French league.

I understand he will get more playing time to develop in the Nordish leagues

I would have preferred him to have stability as a developing player, how many players succeed with Chelsea's loan scheme, very few

Toylove:

If Hafiz Umar Ibrahim's trial at Chelsea is successful, he will potentially sign a long-term contract and loan out to Ligue 1 side Strasbourg.

~ @Jololade

Lol these guys don't learn

Meliforme:
We have very good indigenous coaches.

Finidi's ideas and the implementations of it, are superior to that of Rohr and Peseiro. What Rohr and Peseiro has over Finidi is just CV.

Oga it's just one match against a weak Ghana, let's see how he will fare against Mali

TheSuperNerd:
We share the same feeling on that game. Mali really proved they are a cursed football nation at senior level. Haba.

Mali is that kid that has all the tools yet somehow fails his exams, to think that I've rooted for them for two Afcons in a row

BascoVanVeli:
Benjamin Taminu vs Ghana
Lad had a good game IMO

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dtL5As_y5Dw

Nice, he exceeded my expectations though I'm not expecting him to start when Osho and Ajayi return

charlesemeka85:
How true is this?🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣




DR Congo rejects Aaron Wan-Bissaka request to represent their national team.

We have learned that the wingback made a private to tell DR Congo FA that He is more than ready to represent DRC. But he was told that they are not interested anymore in his service as he initially rejected the call up from the federation in hope of playing for England.

"We simple don't want him. He is like that woman you ask for affair and rejects you in hope of getting a rich Guy. When that doesn't happen she comes back with tail between the legs" said anonymous

Lol Dr Congo would use red carpet to welcome Wan Bissaka if he decides to play for them, do they have a player in the top 6 in the Epl talkless of rejecting a Man United player

charlesemeka85:
Why is no one talking about Onyeka’s long ball to nacho that resulted to the 2nd goal?

If say na Nwakali play that by now we never talk finish here 🤣🤣🤣😏

It was not accurate, I expected the ball to be much closer to Nacho than it was

Joebie:
Not good either so far lol

He has been decent in possession

The Tanimu guy is not bad

Ceenachi:
He is not bragging
He is saying the truth
The insecurity in the east is largely because of his incarceration

Thy should leave this man let him go

So Fulanis are no longer responsible for the insecurity in the East?

elyte89:
At thier primes🤓

De Bruynes best goal season cannot be 10 goals,impossible
