Somalia is competing in the FIFA Arab Cup

[x z]

I keep seeing this guy on my fyp, and he’s verified so he must be some sort of a big deal.


This looks kinda impressive (?)


He follows the Somali stereotype type of never passing why’s he zigzagging past 3-4 niggas, pass nacalaa.

He is a sellout and mid tier anyway. Our best player is Said Haji, who finished as the second overall pick in the MLS draft of 2019. Solid player and a proud Somali who wants to represent us internationally View attachment 182875

MLS? Americans can’t play football for shit so being second overall pick in an American League isn’t that impressive to me. Had you said Premier League then that would definitely be something.

He isn’t from California bro but the team he currently plays for San Jose Earthquakes is based in California. He is from New Hampshire which is near Maine( the state with the largest Somali bantu diaspora itw).

Somalis in California also don’t live in San Jose but in San Diego which is Socal unlike San Jose which is Norcal

What do you mean Somalis in California don’t live in San Jose I got family in San Jose.

Only a few, many are 1st or 2nd gen immigrants, especially for the rich Gulf teams.

When Somaliland eventually gets ictiraaf we should be like Eritrea and Chad in that although we have Arabic as an official language we don't join the Arab League or any pan Arab competitions or organisations @greyhound stone

We should join the Arab league as our business partners are all Arabs. They favour countries in the Arab league.

Still an achievement mate loool niggas been in the UK for a century yet produced no pro footballers while we have two Americans in the MLS

Regardless u still need explosiveness, strength and speed hence why some of the best players in the world are west African. Somalis might have the endurance to last 90 mins but we are usually very weak on the ball and aren’t as explosive as our African compatriots.

I would put attitude and mentality up there as well. Somalis have the biggest ego. They're extremely selfish and think they're Pep Guardiola. One minute, they play Tika Taka and the next minute they imitate like Ronaldinho who refuse to pass then they blame their own teammates and refs without any shame and ending up in a complete meltdown in the middle of the game. Meanwhile, white and Bantus play basic like a team and consolidate their team if they lose or make a mistake.

Not only they're very slow when countered but also have a short attention span and a tunnel vision. The difference between playing with a white team and Somali team in futsal competitions is night and day.

Fulanis/Hausa came to do Umrah/Hajj, I don't think they were enslaved because they still have their surnames.

Unfortunately, Oromos were enslaved and also other Madows who don't know their roots & had to adopt Arab clan surnames like Al-Dossari, Al-Qahtani etc.

lol a lot of hausas were slaves to arabs. Kano and bornu used to be a big slave port

If we couldn't even get passed Zimbabwe in the first qualification round what makes you think we'll qualify for the tournament. Let's just admit we are pants and is never going anywhere till the government make funds for the team and take football mire seriosuly.
