    Homebased footballers/talents derider,doubters,critics, enemies,what is your explanation for this performance? Anyway I knew many of you are jesters and that it’s a matter of time before your shallow views and opinions are rendered baseless, cosmetic, lacking substance whatsoever.
    NB:note Morocco clubs are perennial top performers in the vaf club competitions,so don’t tell me their league isn’t strong.

      Let them win the cup nah , play as runners up or at least third place. That is when we shall know they have arrived. No be to play one match and una go begin wag una tongue. I hope they’d be able to make it out of the group stages. The fact still remains, our domestic teams are not yet there. A lot of work still needs to be done and you that has just written this funny childish piece know that. It’s to early to start praising them as if they won the cup. There is still a long way to go. All we could do is to encourage them as they progress.

    • @Imnas, it is quite clear by your write up that the constant underperformance of the Home based temas has been so poor that a mere win has you boosting and talking down on straight talking people who want nothing but the best for NPFL teams. So a mere win has you wagging your mouth like this???. My man they have not accomplished anything yet. let them qualify out of the group and get to semi’s then this your write up will make sense. because as of now it is very laughable at best. Lol!!1 one win and you are talking like they have conquered Africa na wa o

      Relax it’s just too early

  • Watched the game and remo stars lost a lot of chances, the need to be clinical in front of goal in the 18 yard box. They wasted a lot of chances as they either ballon the ball over the bar or sideways. If they has taken half of those chances they could have won the game. Lets hope they correct this error by return leg. They really took the game to their host ans kudos to the boys for coming out with a draw considering they were not allowed to train on the pitch by the Moroccans.

      The fact remains that the Nigeria Professional Football League is teeming with Super talented players. People just like foreign based players too much. We must learn to appreciate what we have in Nigeria. These Remo Stars players will perform well even in the Uefa Champions League.

      • @Ebubedike yet they could not make CHAN Tournamet. Mr Ebube we would like all sectors of Nigerian ball to know thier place and move up the rank legitmately. NPFL Players should FOCUS ON CHAN AND CAF THEY ARE NO WHERE NEAR OUR EUROPEAN OR ACADEMY EXPORTS WHEN THE DOMINATE CHAN AND CAF CLUB COMPS THEN WE WILL KNOW THEY ARE READY TO MAKE THE NEXT STEP. ALL THESE DEBATES IS BASELESS AS OUR FOOTBALL IS SUFFERING BECAUSE OF SOME NINCOMPOOPS LIKE YOU WHO KEEP ADVOCATING FOR PLACES IN SE SQUAD FOR THESE CHAN PLAYERS. ABEG. They is no other way to say this. If they had focused on CHAN and not pushed to punch above thier weight for almost 8 months at least we could have camped them 2 or three months prior to the CHAN knock outs with Ghana and we may have made CHAN AFCON now they have failed and you want them to come and dumb our european stars out of SE. guy tell me which kind indian hemp are you lot and most Ex footballers smoking abeg?

        • imagine the lack of reasoning some of you are showing on this forum it is really disheartening. Chan is also important as you all saw recently did that game not hurt when ghana Chan team dumbed us out?. if so why will you not let players know thier place and find the much needed route to seperate the men from the boys when vying for a super eagles call up or is playing in NPFL now a requirement for SE? please man some of you should really grow up and stop this rubbish

      Even this new generation of players balloons the ball? then it’s a generational thing.

  • Imnas 2 years ago

    Your so-called ‘world class’ eagles playing in the so-called know-it-all European leagues were also dumped out by Ghana, weren’t they?in recent times also,npfl players are increasingly being signed by european clubs,and no I’m not even talking about the ladies going from nfwl to command regular shirt in european clubs.But inferiority will never make us see any good in ourselves but it has no ‘whiteman’ involvement and endorsement by extensiin
