Today, Yakubu of Blackburn Rovers scored two goals Arsenal FC. He has shown that he has improved his touch as well as his finishing. I feel like he should be called back (depending on how he plays) to represent Nigeria in the World Cup. He is showing that he is very fit and reasy to score goals.

What do you guys think?

I think he has infected Torres with the K-leg shot syndrome He should recover some age not fitness

Yakubu is a very accomplished but much maligned striker. He should be back in the team.

Hate Him or LIke Him, Yakubu is the best Nigeria Striker currently

Resurrect a dinosaur and inject it with fresh blood, it will still belong to the museum.

He only shows his best in clubs and worse in the national team. But anyway he deserves another chance but only after he might have performed well in 20 straight matches.

Yakubu is useless in my book.
Let us wait till middle of the season

I don't know why am finding it difficult to forgive yarkubu after what he did to us at the world cup.let him go to hell

His single performance cannot qualify him to come back to super eagle,moreover wat should happen 2 those dat played qualifying matches?

pls 4give and 4get and no vex for him again, ,.abeg.

yakubu he got skils but no confidence and i think for his age aswell this younger ones will disgrace him the only thing he should keep playing for English league for now and collect his weekly thousands he should no that Nigeria will not trust him to lead us in any world cup again,

yeah. im happy he slaughtered arsenal

I have forgiven him loooooong, but as for returning to super eagles, let him just retire from international football

ok,i'll try.

He should keep his form to himself,

We have other capable hands,

He has never been short of confidence.

Missing a sitter doesn't mean one is off-form. He has proved himself in all teh clubs he has played in - from Maccabi Haifa to Portsmouth to Middlesborough to Everton and now in Blackburn. Even in his brief, half-season loan spell in Leicester he had close to 10 goals.

Another fact people ignore is this guy is in Top 5 highest scoring Super Eagles of all time.

Now, should he return to SE? I don't think so. I think we have a good replacement in Emenike as our Central Striker, backed-up by Peter Utaka, this Dynamo Kiev guy(can't recall his name) and fringely Martins, while the IK Uches, Ahmed Musas, Obinna Nsofors, (why are all our forwards wingers?) of this world can support from the flanks.

Just finished watching ESPN press pass, when Gabriel macotti referred to Yakubu as " he his built as a house"

Just because he scored Two Goals against weak and confuse Arsenal now means he is regaining form, by the way, was he ever inform? Abegi, to tell u that my Granny can even score in that match, even Arsenal showed how weak and confused they are by Scoring Own Goals

Thank God for yaku

2goals against a side dat ended up loosing despite scoring 5/7(goals) of d match, make Yak still dey dat side abeg!!2goals against a side dat ended up loosing despite scoring 5/7(goals) of d match, make Yak still dey dat side abeg!!

I don't care what he becomes, I must never see him wear those green-white-green colours again

simply because Yak scored against Arsenal does not make fit

I congratulate him. However, this Arsenal team lack confidence. you can read more on

Missing a sitter does not mean you lost form.
Yakubu scored 11 goals in 20 appearances while on loan at Leicester last season.

yakubu does not care about the national team. he will not put in 100% for his country.

yakubu is a lucky striker, dosent create any goal opportunities fro himself, never beats a man and scores, he does manage to be in the right place at the right time, and manages to score, but honestly, we don't need him, his style dose no fit in to the super eagles team, wish him the best, but honestly i had more confidence in emenike than that guy

yakubu as always been an ok striker 4 his clubs just neva in a nigerian jersey.

Yet he is Nigeria's National team's 4th or 5th all--time highest goal scorer . Smh

being in the right place at the right time is what makes a striker. it is called 'goal sense' or 'positioning'. If it is that easy, all strikers will be scoring many goals.

In any case, luck can hardly run for you thruout your entire career. This guy has been consistent in all the 5 clubs he has played at top level.

Let's give it to him, he may not be a world class striker like Eto'o, Drogba et al, but he has proved to be a king in his own class of average 15-20 goals-a-season strikers. He deserves some respect joor

Feed the YAK and he will Score
