Osimhen is a lottery ticket that happened to be at the right place at the right time. There’s a bunch of Osimhen level talent for several positions in Nigeria…but NFF/Nigeria gotta stay tapped into the fukery

Bro, tell me about it. A country of 170M+ will deff have a bunch of ballers there.

I was just in Naija like 2 weeks ago and we simply are our own worst enemies when it comes to progress and advancement. Football is symptomatic of that

Sounds like most african countries. Corrupt governments and politicians swindling money.

Once I saw Ahmed Musa, and Umar Sadiq in the squad I lost all hope for Nigeria to win it.
Great individuals in a shytty country/system that fails to develop talent at the grassroots level.
