CFCman:

The loss of Alli, Barkley, Ibe and Anya is the fault of the NFF. They (NFF) were slacking on the job till it became too late.
But I'll commend them on their timely discovery of Iwobi, who may not be ready for the SE, but could play a part at the Olympics.
With Oliseh out of the way, Enyeama may return to the Eagles.

Alli and Barkley were never going to play for Nigeria, especially Barkley that was been hyped as the best Everton product since Rooney. That level of talent would always wait for the England call up first......

Ibime:
Leave that thing.
Efe Sodje played World Cup games against Argentina and England and only conceded once.
Nigeria worst player of all time is:
Mobi Oparaku
Furo Iyenemi
Bennedict Akwuegbu

Take your pick.

That we didnt concede more than one was due to the wasteful nature of the Argentines. Sodje did everything in his power to ensure we lost by more

Mobi Oparaku wasnt that bad especially as part of Atlanta 96

While I think Akwuegbu was still better than Chukwu Ndukwe

Bonfere threw Furo into the fire to go play against those apuruka Camerounian in the Nations cup final.

Sodje is still the worst. Iloanusi got a few caps in one of those games he heard a whistle from the crowd and he stopped the ball with his hand thinking it was the ref. Thereby conceding a Penalty

Chidi Ordiah was average na. No dey spoil the guy name

Towards 2002 world cup was when we saw some uber useless players like Opabunmi, Justice Christopher, Pius Ikedia, Eric Ejiofor, Efe Sodje, Shagalo Ogbeche, Rabiu Afolabi

Iloanusi was another terrible one that was said to have bribed his way into the team. If you factor in Furo's high profile mistakes , 2000 Olympics comes to mind I still give him the title.
Chukwu ndukwe cost us 2000 nations cup with his horrendous 1st half performance. Imagine scoring a goal in the 1st half and the coach still subs you at half time

The father name sef na Dominic Iorfa he played for Nigeria. I remember him for being a speedy player who runs faster than the ball most times

Na Jonathan Akpoborie dey run leave ball.

Dominic Iorfa was more back to goal striker but equally average.

They were the 4th and 5th strikers in early 90s, and they were the ones who lost their place to Efan Ekoku in 1994.

@ Raumdeuter,

Mobi Oparaku was so poor at France 98, they had to send Headmaster Adepoju to play rightback after the 1st game till tournament finish.

Conte- I want Vidal in all my teams

Jonathan Akpoborie came more after US 94. I remember a game before Atlanta, I think he just came to the Stadium to watch Ngeria vs Togo as a spectator and the coach drafted him to dress up and join the team

The strikers queuing to US 94 were Owubokiri, Yekini, Efan Ekoku I think. afrodoc can assist

Bro. Tim. Happy wedding anniversary....may Jah fortify ur marriage till eternal life ....cute daughter u have....

I remember some of these names though...

Furo Iyemeni would be familiar to anyone who played PES 1/2/3 or their winning eleven counterparts for the particular way the commentator mentioned it

Jonathan Akpoborie, Mobi Okparaku, etc. Akpoborie especially seemed to always be mentioned on Larry Izamojes ray power show every morning...along with 'Zzzzamalek of Eegypt'

Abeg what was the name of that PSG striker that broke into the SE around the early noughties....he was short, very fast, but very useless in front of goal?

^^
Ogbeche?

You were 15 years old in 2002 and you don't know Ogbeche? You see what I said about ogbomosho weed delaying your development?

Ogbeche was Labour Prefect at FGC Okigwe in 1995. So imagine my surprise when he showed up at PSG in 2002 claiming to be 18 years old.

Ibime if we look am well the British trained defenders have been some of the worst in Eagles. Some of them cant even control the ball.

Think of Abbey George, Danny Shittu, and the worst Nigerian footballer of all time Efe Sodje. God punish Onigbinde for allowing that useless maga wear Nigerian Jersey

The Nigerian trained can be very rash in tackle and lack ability to build play from back because of our local football training in Nigeria where its only wicked and mean people who play defence and their aim is to break legs.

The criteria for being a defender in Nigeria from youth: You are big, You are dark, you are wicked, you have no skill to play other position, But you are so wicked they must always select you else you would beat everyone up. You can boot the ball very far away

I remember in secondary school one guy like that in defence he even had tribal marks and would tell you say he know say he cant make a career out of football because of tribal marks but he would ensure you dont have a football career as well. In every game he would break at least 2 legs you would see people crying and limping home. (Ahh Ibrahim... E no go better for you ooo). I just learnt to avoid him and stay in offside position where he would forget me. After I score from that offside position na to run away from the field because he would still come and beat you for scoring

Mehn Dayo, you really grow up for hood.

Nothing is truer than the emboldened.

The game mechanics were too easy to exploit back then. Most people played with finger permanently on the turbo button. You could literally waltz past players due to the limitations of the 8 direction turning axis.

Once they ran past you, it was difficult to change direction or double back. I remember beating some Konamis 6 or 7 to nil

Abi o

It became more realistic in PS2 when you still had to use the through pass to complete it ...meaning that one could abort the 1-2 if the player had strayed offside.

Ps2 sef get im own ojoro - zlatan ibrahimovic, Adriano, Rooney and all those "body-balanced" players for PES ... smh

Ibra na im worse pass - you fit see like 3 defenders dey escort am and dem no go still see ball collect for him leg!
