You see what I'm saying.. your method will sideline and discriminate against players..

Selection should be from north south east west and foreign but those from north south east west should be given a higher percentage than foreign.

Cape Verde is a small archipelago island nation in the Atlantic Ocean off the northwest coast of Africa.
The country is mired in absolute poverty, with 30% of its citizens below the poverty line.
The World Bank estimates that 14% of the population is living in extreme poverty.
With a crisis of this magnitude, the government of Cape Verde is dependent on the receipt of international aid to maintain relative stability (Josh Forget). World Bank.
For a country with a population of less than 600, 000 (562, 583) this is disgraceful. Statistics, not pictures, my guy!

If my child grows in Nigeria then that child is not a foreigner.

Imo and PH are the same region and same ethnicity so no one is a foreigner to the other.

So if all the players from the South can not trap ball, they should get selected.

If the best players of Nigeria, 21 of them are from one street in Oshodi or One street in Algeria or London, they are the best players. That is it.

So it is not about making an ethnic group or tribe proud. It is about coming up with the best winning team of players.

Note, best winning team of players. If you want to favour a tribe or please a State, you miss the chance of creating the best winning crop of players.

No, it is not prime, it was Buhari. As if you don't know he was one of the top Nigerians in Europe while at CSKA Moscow. From that time, his relevance made him one of the longest serving Super Eagles player before the arrival of Buhari. So how do you expect a coach to do away with him like that. Did you not see him at the World Cup?

I don't want to derail this thread. This space is for football.

I'll round this one up by telling you that the standard of living in Cape Verde is much better in Nigeria. I have been to multiple cities in both countries and I have also read all the stuff you can read on the net just like the one you have quoted. I didn't say it was a rich country, it is however a fully functional one. You asked if I had been to the countries I listed that's why I attached pics as proof.

Nigeria is the poverty capital of the world and nothing works there as it should, from sports to education to politics to the police etc etc If you don't believe me just google poverty capital of the world and see what comes up. I'll give you a hint, it won't be Cape Verde.

I have been to over 50 countries and yet to see one as chaotic as Nigeria...okay maybe Benin Republic comes close.

It's still my county though. Just stating facts.

Aliyu Abdullahi gave Nassarawa united the lead almost immediately after the half hour, but Bayelsa united also equalized through Emo James.

Surprisingly the highest goal score of the Nigeria professional football league Silas Nwankwo with 19 league and 3 Aiteo cup goals also missed his penalty kick.
Bayelsa united made history yesterday as the second club to win the Aiteo cup from the second division of Nigeria football called the Nigeria National league (NNL), after defunct Dolphins football club defeated El-kanemi warriors 2-0 to win it in 2001.
Bayelsa united would now proceed to the African continental stage to play in the CAF Confederation cup.
After an impressive season Nassarawa united would again fail to grace the continental stages after finishing in fourth position on the NPFL table.
Bayelsa united received the grand prize of 25 million naira, for winning the Aiteo cup while Nassara united would take hone a consolation prize of 10 million naira.



The victory of Bayelsa united over Nassarawa united was not the only victory for the south south state, as there female counterpart Bayelsa queens defeated FC Robo 4-2 to claim the female version of the Aiteo cup and receive a grand prize of 10 million naira.
All things seems to be working for good for Bayelsa state in the sports sector as the only silver medal in the just concluded Olympics was from a Bayelsa state contingent, Blessing Oduduru.
The investment been done by the Bayelsa state sports loving governor, Senator Douye Diri, seems to be yeiding major benefits, the governor was also a commisoner of sports in the state.

Decided to do a potential lineup of players we have available at the moment. Honestly Rohr has no excuse not to be doing better even the second ''weaker'' 11 can still beat some of Africa's best teams if deployed adequately.

Without mincing words I want you to understand from this juncture that I am a very strong Pan Africanist , who believe that we must put Africa first in everything we do. If my heroes are persons like Thomas Sankara , Malcolm X and Marcus Garvey and Louis Farakhan then you should save yourselves the headache of engaging me. I am so deeply African its unbelievable!

Now , to address this thing you wrote: I still don't understand your Osimhen and co examples.... What exactly are you trying to prove. Osimhen is a gifted Nigerian player who was contracted by Napoli. I am confused; what is the lesson ?

I still maintain my position on the foreign born. They add nothing to SE , rather they are using us to sell themselves to European clubs while our own are languishing in the Europe third world countries. Balogun , Ekong , Ebuehi and Aina has benefited from playing for SE, yet they havent won even a plastic cup. Aribo is over hyped by ROHR and has not added anything to the team...Nwakali is miles ahead of him. Iwobi is still learning how to play a 10 since he started playing for us. He can be easily replaced....he isn't better that Onyekuru.

These foreign born use us as last resort...and that's shameful. They will never touch a Nigerian woman with a long pole, they do not invest in Nigeria and will never return home. So, whats the point ? I am sorry , but I will not apologize for thinking highly of my mothers land.

You want to rush and cap players in europe academies while we have talents littered across Nigeria who are a million times better than these crappy English boys.


But , you write a lot of senseless shiiit ooo....did you say we refused to get the best FB and settled for mediocre. You must not have been following recent happening....Abraham rejected Nigeria and mocked us openly , Saka rejected Nigeria , Eze rejected us , Torunarigha rejected us...No high flying foreign born will ever agree to play for Nigeria. They mostly marry oyibo or mixed....these ppunks feel our women are inferior !
