When I see a player like Pastore linked to the likes of West Ham (by Sky, nonetheless), I wonder if there's too much money being floating around in the EPL.
Props on the discount code. Saved me a few bucks.
Yo is that new Nigerian kit Best one we've had in years! Instant cop!!i can't believe the lengths i had to go to for a fukkin soccer jersey.
shout out to the plug.
no Italy at the World Cup, so i'll be the whitest guy supporting Naija.
Idk, but for some reason I feel France is gonna be a huge let down this World Cup.
If Nigeria can get to the QF then I'd be happy.
Looking forward to the friendly against England tomorrow. Very good test of our mettle.
I'm hoping we face France in the round of 16 again this year if we make it out the group.
Last time I believe we would have beat them if Onazi didn't get injured in the second half.
England has never lost to an African team so it will be nice if we can change that tomorrow.
If this team doesn’t win the whole thing I’ll ban myself from The Coli for the year. I have the utmost confidence that this squad can and will beat everybody.Tite is truly a student of the game. He is determined not to repeat the same mistakes that Dunga and Scolari have done in 2010 and 2014 which was having no real options on the bench. He has a line up ready for teams that play very defensive. Which is Fernandinho or Coutinho in Renato Augusto's place (Willian coming in if Coutinho moves to the middle).
Or two forwards - Firmino + Jesus or Neymar moving up alongside Jesus (or Firminho).
Also he has a team set up for teams that play open with fast attackers(Mexico,Belgium, France etc).
The biggest question is of course Neymar. Word is he is not going to play this Sunday in the Croatia game. Tite should consider him coming off the bench even for the friendlies and the group stages if he isn’t 100% ready. No need to rush him in the group stages. Slowly bring him back to the team.
France looks scary good tho. If Brazil somehow survives Belgium in the Quarters they could face France in the Semis which history has shown always has Brazil’s number in the World Cup(‘86,’98,’06). I do not see them beat France tho.
France ain't winning shyt, the personnel is there, probably the best squad in the tournament. Deschamps however is like a really poor man's Mourinho with talent, they'll flop as usual. Might as take that self imposed ban nowIf this team doesn’t win the whole thing I’ll ban myself from The Coli for a year. I have the utmost confidence that this squad can and will beat everybody.
