Oh Please. Echiejile had a history of poor games until he lost his place in the Super Eagles. Do not try to make him the best thing since Celestine Babayaro. Props to him for the much improvement and we hope it continues.

Do not overblow it. Keep in mind, Rohr worked with Lizarazu. If he says we need reinforcement, we need reinforcement.

If the Boss says it the fish, you eat the fish.

You want to know the cold hearted truth

Change his agent, it's obvious he is not able to cut it for him or his agent is pursuing what will benefit him and not the player.

Etebo is way too good to be playing for his current club.

Kindly point out the poor games Elderson have had for the Super Eagles.
For every one poor game you point, I will point 2 equally bad ones from Mikel.

Elderson have been a great servant for the national team, irrespective of what anyone thinks. He has been ever present in all the famous victories we have enjoyed the past 8-10 yrs.
He's not the most flashy player in the team zthat could probably be the reason you want to throw him under the bus.

And Rohr have never said he's not satisfied with Elderson's contributions.

Asking me to point out poor games of Echiejile shows you are far from the food chain. He lost his place to Oshaniwa under Keshi.

Argue what you know.

Liar! He was injured that was the reason Oshaniwa showed up at the World Cup.

TheGoodJoe:


Mikel poor games. Haba. Fear God. You can say Mikel did not perform highly but poor. Mba nu nu.

TheGoodJoe:


Guy you are funny. It was the AFCON qualifiers that Echiejile lost his place. After repeated horrendous show. As I said, Argue what you know.

goldfish80:

Take up the challenge if you can. Name one poor game from Elderson, I will name 2 equally poor ones from Mikel.

This is no way dissing Mikel, I just want to prove to you that Elderson have been one of our most steady performers,morr than how much you realise.

goldfish80:

How could he have lost his place at the Afcon qualifiers when he was the first choice till the Afcon finals when he got injured.

By the way, Mikel lost his spot to Onobi, does that make Onobi better than Mikel?

TheGoodJoe:


I am not taking up any wack challenge. This is not a competition. If you do not know Echiejile had poor games that caused us key points, there is no point arguing with you. As I said, props to Echiejie for the much improvement and I hope it continues. I prays so.

goldfish80:

Elderson has about 52 caps and counting. If he's such a poor player like you're making him out to be, he wouldn't have 1/4 if those caps.

TheGoodJoe:


Echiejile was dropped by Keshi, not injured. You already exposed yourself when you were talking before World Cup. Echiejile was fit and on the bench. Terrible in games. Oshaniwa came in and the result switched.

This is basic stuff.

This should clear you up if he was injured or not http://africanfootball.com/news/431511/Ahmed-Musa-injured-scan-for-Elderson-Keshi

BascoVanVeli:


He was the only player that performed in the friendlies prior to the world cup. He got injured.

You have not been able to prove your claims on
1) Elderson being so bad he lost his place to Oshaniwa
2)Elderson having bad games which have cost us points
What have you been able to prove? Nothing.

TheGoodJoe:


The Eagles coach did not specify the mature of Musa’s injury but it is believed he picked it from the game against Greece.

“The doctors have an appointment for an MRI scan for Elderson to know the extent of the problem. We have to wait,” he said.

“(Ahmed) Musa is nursing a little a bit of injury, while Juwon (Oshaniwa) has been out for three, four days with malaria, but he has resumed training.

“Hopefully everybody will be fine before we leave for Brazil.”

I doubt you read the article you posted. There is leave for Brazil in it. Is that AFCON qualifiers?

Elderson didn't recover from his injuries after the world cup. The Afcon qualifiers started same year the world cup ended.

goldfish80:

You initially said he lost his place to Oshaniwa at the World Cup. Scroll up and read your own post.

TheGoodJoe:


Your still digging yourself. You do not know. Echiejile played the qualifiers and was a big part why Keshi lost his job. By the time Keshi replaced him, it was too late. Admit you do not know and move on.

Posting articles without reading it.

I repeat big props to Echiejile for the much improvement and I hope it continues.

goldfish80:


Elderson was the reason keshi lost his job? What a pathetic claim.
I haven't read anything more ridiculous. Wow

TheGoodJoe:


World Cup ke. Please, everyone knows Echiejile injured and Oshaniwa replaced him well. This is basic stuff.
