    Come and see o! Arsenal Fans have unanimously voted Nigeria eligible Saka as man of the match. Today, the players love Saka, the fans love Saka, the racist media love Saka and the coaches love Saka. The moment his game nosedives and is highlighted, all of a sudden the fans and journalists are racists, Nigerian fans who have never failed as footballers don’t know anything about football, Nigerian fans who criticise Saka will want their own tribal players like Viv Solomon Otabor in the national team, and the coaches don’t like Saka anymore, fans have hidden motives bla bla bla…. Haha ha ha ha ha. Ignorance and stupidity seems to be daily staple of some fools. Well done Saka. If you choose to play for Nigeria, you will not regret it. If you choose England, we will not hold it against you because it is your life, it is your choice. Please note, if you choose Nigeria, that does not mean we will always praise your performances even when you play rubbish. We will offer unbiased opinions on how well you play. Blind loyalty and worthless excuses have no place on this platform. The choice to play for Nigeria is not passport to partiality in assessment and feedback.
