If the above list is true,i,d say that is possibly the best selection from the initial 32 man squad invited..Those are the best 23..hope the players justify their selection...
Fingers crossed they will do well.

I wish them what they wish themselves.
How I wish they will operate in 5 or 6D.

Gud list though bt am so sad dike dint mak d list,afta his goal against catalunya.wel wish my eagles gudluck

bigwallace: Gud list though bt am so sad dike dint mak d list,afta his goal against catalunya.wel wish my eagles gudluck

you just beat me to that...why always Dike

The list is balance, and i want them to start thorough training on formation, tactise, etc. I wish them all the Best

Wait, so this is the list? Wel, advice the players
1. [especialy d igbo guys] to try control their apetite nd infact, ban akpu sale around d training camps.
2. The 1 northern player should be re-assurd dat there is no b*k* h&Rä# there.
3. To enyeama, no more fights, no west bank dispute so no fear.
4. Mikel nd Victor should be confident, no nigerian "hazzard" or non-ethical "matter" can replace them.
Gud luck 2 u ma darlings. :X :X

Despite all I wish osaze made the list. Love it or hate it he is like one of our best

Nice one K!! Bet osaze nko

Why is Bright Dike's name not on dis list (if it truly is Keshi's final list)?

I just finished watching d "Super" Eagle play out an unimpressive scoreless draw against the Cape Verde, & d only tin I can say going by their performance on the night is dat I am afraid for dis team.

Fair selection,but the team lacks character in terms of attack.the team needs to upgrade their game or else we aren't going any where with this style play.
