St.Pauli have been promoted to the Bundesliga, they have a certain Dapo Afolayan who is 26yo in their squad. This season he has 9 goals 3 assists in the bundesliga 2. Watch out for him next season

With a midfield of Raph, Ndidi and Iwobi. Bright and Aina in FB. That central defence eh, I'll leave it for people to decide because I can't even name a reliable one among them. All of our CBs just dey the same average level.

Onyeka has to be in the midfield


Our CBs not reliable?
We saw how amazing they were at AFCON
For me I will pair Ekong and Ajayi
And play Bassey at LB

Yea... another good suggestion especially considering the caliber of defenders we have.

BTW, Bassey at WB won't work but will perfectly slot in at left side of the back three.

Portuguese side, Chaves have filed a disciplinary case against Kelechi Nwakali, who was on his phone on the substitute bench during Chaves home defeat to Famalicao.

The defeat condemned the northern Portuguese side to relegation.

No lie you dey happy low-key not because of his predicament but because of his staunch follower who push him down our throats.

Anyways this begs the question on why his former club in spain had similar issues with him.Jibola was able to give a cover story saying his strong desires to play for Nigeria in AFCON and his passport issues were the reason for the maltreatment he received. Here is another case with photo evidence , I wonder how his apogee will defend this one

Got released or left Chelsea finished high school through plethora of non league clubs while doing a Engineering degree at Loughborough university.

Even had a stint with West ham buying him then loaned he spent three seasons in league one with Bolton. Didn't get far beyond that.

He was more of a forward player good but not outstanding. Finds himself in the Bundesliga 2 and now he is in Bundesliga.

France and do what .

Do you realise how poor the bottoms section of the Portuguese league is❓

Chavez have found a legal loophole to throw him in the bin. He was getting substituted quite a lot his one goal πŸ₯… all season not enough to keep the from getting relegated.

But many here post nonsense over hype exaggeration that he is the best in his club and league. Delusional blindness.

majority of his call ups happened when he was in his last season in the premier league. They stopped when he followed hull to relegation.

Did we stop πŸ›‘ calling KC and Ndidi because they were in the championship πŸ†.

That's not TRUE at all.

The bolded is true, unfortunately for him
I hope I'm wrong but this might be the beginning of his journey to oblivion

Good talent but poor attitude which seems to be a recurring theme in all the clubs he's played for
Sad for him but he brought this on himself

June invite list scoop
https://web.facebook.com/ahmad.emmanuel.77/posts/pfbid02eEmQHxGLMYM7mLwgDneBTSTSQsi174TPYGySUVpwdF7xorBDF2oEoa62WAZtLjSKl

As per speculations, Fulham defender Tosin Adarabioyo, Werder Bremen's Justin Njinmah, Caleb Okoli of Frozinone and Luton Town playmaker, Gabriel Osho are four newly invited players to the Super Eagles in their next two 2026 FIFA World Cup qualifiers.
Meanwhile, Udinese of Italy goalkeeper, Maduka Okoye is making a return to the Super Eagles fold after over a year while Francis Uzoho has been omitted in the 25-man team released by the Nigeria Football Federation (NFF) for the June World Cup qualifiers against South Africa and Benin Republic.
As expected, Napoli striker, Victor Osimhen headlines the list that also includes Bayer Leverkusen marksman, Victor Boniface, Samuel Chukwueze, Nathan Tella and Terem Moffi.
Chuba Akpon, Alex Iwobi, Wilfred Ndidi, Frank Onyeka, Joe Aribo and Onyedika of Club Brugge and Alhassan Yusuf of Antwerp.
The defenders picked are Calvin Bassey, Alex Akpoguma, Bright Osayi-Samuel and Ola Aina.
Smarting from his heroics at the last Africa Cup of Nations, Stanley Nwabali leads the goalkeeper trio of Okoye and Arsenal loanee, Arthur Okonkwo.
Let's have your take on this list please.
Best choice of leaving out Bros Uzoho?

Uzoho, Omeruo on the permanent way out.
Onyeamachi, and Iheanacho missing out is understandable.
No Semi Ajayi and Ademola Lookman?
I fear we are capping too many players with dual nationality while forsaking our full-bred Nigerians. Kind of unfair and like Colonial mentality.

I counted 23 here. 2 more NFL to complete List?

Goal Keepers
Stanley Nwabali
Maduka Okoye
Arthur Okonkwo

Defenders
Tosin Adarabioyo
Caleb Okoli
Gabriel Osho
Calvin Bassey
Alex Akpoguma
Bright Osayi-Samuel
Ola Aina

Midfielders

Frank Onyeka
