    Meanwhile, Osimhen just finished roasting Bayern Munich. The boy just needs his teammates to play for him…a la late Yekini…e fi kini yii siwaju…Just put the ball in my front…dasall

      Yes… Two well-taken goals by Osimhen. The boy is a natural… I saw his recent workouts with Spaletti’s trainers… they are trying to improve his left leg to be as good and balanced as his right… that guy will eclipse Samuel Eto’o in profile and will definitely be right up there with the bests in the game…

    Oboy super eagles 2 good oo. lose & draw friendlies but win & draw in competitions, but D’ Tigers win friendlies & could not win a single match in a competition. we are watching some people that always rant nonsense about rohr closely.

  • CALVIN BASSEY FOR SUPER EAGLES LEFT FULL BACK POSITION. COACH ROHR SHOULD PLEASE GO FOR THIS YOUNG MAN. HE WILL BE A GOOD ADDITION TO THE TEAM.

      He’s already on the gaffers radar. He will be included in our next international list. He could’ve been part of our U20 team to Poland in 2019 but was overlooked for a certain Ikouwem Idoh who has already fled to oblivion in only 2 years. While Bassey is improving by the day. He will give Sanusi a real fight for that spot. #FLY LIKE AN EAGLE INTO THE FUTURE#
