Boneda: Oliseh has a point, keshi's tactics only work for african teams. His criteria for selecting players just surprises me. He has stopped calling up Uche kalu, ejike uzoenyi, papa idris, reuben gabriel ever since they got clubs in europe. Thats why he called up a free agent like michael babatunde to see if he can market him

lexyman: Oliseh , u have done well for making ur point clear ! But this is not the best time for u to criticize Keshi"s work , I could remember vividly how we "ve been clamouring for new legs in the super eagles and the process is still on , and I know he will achieve that formidable team he has been working on. i used to like ur analyses on super super sports but this time u did"nt get it right...Leave Keshi alone let him do his work , he will surely get it right !

edoyad: Sunday(kpomo lips) Oliseh, please be quiet already. Keshi has contributed more to Nigerian football than you could ever do even if you lived to be two hundred years old. I didn't like your personality much as a player and many Nigerians feel that way too.

nijanigga: Keshi may have a point. Look at how home based players score goals like killing bats on mango trees. "Four clubs involved in two play-off matches that ended 79-0 and 67-0 respectively - a total of 146 goals."I thank God because Nigeria won't qualify for Brazil 2014.Since they have turned football scores to basketball scores.

NO LONG TIN: This Oliseh sef!!! d guy don dey tire me.

The many issues he raise here - his argument, are not strong, I for like break am 1 by 1 but because I wan sleep, I go just summarize.

Who out of the AGCON team that did us proud didnt participate in CONFED apart from Emenike, Moses and Yobo (for obvious reasons)?

The foreign based players he is campaigning for neva did anything for us apart from fighting and showing us how big their egos are.

Although we lost in the CONFED, I've neva been so proud to be a Nigerian(football-wise) till AFCON and CONFED. We played well in CONFED and lost, unlike when we go to tournaments play baldly and still lose (even with our white coach(es)) - and there was hardly any home-based player back then. Does Oliseh want us to go back to that period?

He also claimed he(keshi) should be able to manage players, I agree with him on that but managing players is also knowing when not to bring in a player that will disrupt team spirit. He should find out why Joey Barton at his peak didnt represent England regularly.

He Also talked about Brazil not using new faces as the reason they won, I could also show him teams that didnt win using the same old faces and countries with foreign based players 'the best out of their countries' - according to him, dat flopped e.g. Coit d vior(abi wetin b d spelling.. d 1 with drogba dem)

Nawa ooo , I just deh pour out my heart, I no know say I don type reach dis 1..... gudnyt all

delors: Havent you guys noticed that the analyses of these so-called professional analysts are always reactionary? They run their analyses after the matches have been played and then blame the coach for what he did/didnt meanwheile nobody said anything about the problem or loophole before the matches. if those guys had won or at least reached final, they would have said Keshi was d best in the world, he had vision to have used those home based boys, etc blah blah blah...
Oliseh for one cannot manage the national team because he has a very high ego cum pride so tay if any player talks any how or do anyhow to him, such a player is grounded for life. He would have resulted to social media to exchange words with Osaze when the Osaze-Keshi issue rose, were it an osaze-Keshi thang. Oliseh is arrogant and sometimes he talks without a care, unprofessionally. (i still remember the things he said about Yekini before he died)
Back to the Confederation palaver, Moses had an injury so was Emenike...apart from those two 9and of course Yobo), who else could we have invited? Musa plays abroad, Ideye, Mikel, Efe, Enyeama, Omerua, etc what exactly is the point?
And by saying 'WAGNG WARS AGAINST FOREIGN PLAYERS', oliseh is trying to create a problem and dissent to make it look like Keshi is actually anti-foreign based players which will so unfair to say the least. Osaze was the only player who missed out as a foreign based player for the right reasons, Oliseh made sense because his commnets came after the tournament. Anybody could have said the same and even better because we all watched the matches and saw the lapses. Apart from that, he isnt much of an analyst abeg.

aikuda:

I guess that is what analysis is about- to analyse an existent issue or a phenomenon, usually with a view to profer solutions or improvement. It is similar to what you are doing now!

seankay: I still don't understand why folks keep saying keswinningw thae nations cup with home based players..I only recognised two home based throughout the tournament -MBA nd Oboabona,the rest were foreign.Our 6 starting 11 were foreign but I still commenI tho'.

edi287:
+100000000000000000000000000000000000000. Oboabona and Mba were the only home based players that made an impact at afcon. The others are average at best. Oliseh also made a good point about the quality of play in our league. I admire Keshi for the respect he commands, but tactically, he's nothing special.

mrjingles: Oliseh got it totally WRONG! he succumbed to emotions on the day of the match and is too proud to admit his error. I was sooo mad at him on the day in question because he was talking RUBBISH on this matter and he is STILL talking rubbish. Lets analyse the absentees:
Moses-injured, ike uche-off form, kalu uche-injured, joel obi-injured, onazi-injured, emenike-injured, oduamadi-injured during confed, anichebe- opted out, martins- off form, osaze- problem child(with keshi AND his club) So which foreign based player who was in good form should have been called?

look at our strike force- musa-second top scorer for club in Russia, Ideye-second top scorer in the ukraine LEAGUE, akpala- foreign, ujah-foreign, ogu-foreign, ogude-foreing, in fact only 2 homebased were regular in confed- oboabona and mbah, how does that constitute a "fight against foreign based"?
It appears Oliseh for all his eloquence and good analysis doesn't actually know the players in the team. This is a group of average, hard working players save for 1 or 2 who are being turned slowly into a good TEAM and its a big work in progress, the experience for the boys was priceless. Notice how the home based eagles easily demolished CIV 4-1? That is what renewed confidence and self belief created by keshi's approach is leading to. Eagles actually were forced to use a second string side at the confeds.
