bisikeys: This squad lacks dept. I see a lot of people the coach is trying to sell. Who is Muhammad Gambo and what has he done to be in the team? Who is Solomon Kwambe?? In midfield, i only see two players of class, Ogenyi Onazi and Mikel Obi.. Before you start mentioning Mba, in all of Nigeria's games that he has played , what is his overall performance. He's always anonymous for most of the game. His role is so undefined. You dont see him tackle, you dont see him pass, he just shows that occasional flash of brilliance. Check out our games in the Nations cup, Before and after the goals, what was his impact? What role was he playing? Defensive midfield, or attacking midfield? I believe this is not the best team Nigeria can offer at this stage. this is just the team of a coach trying to prove a point(that am in charge).
I was sceptical abput Mba too and i asked ur questions too until i watched SE against Mexico. Sunday Mba is a midfield machine. The guy is good.

Even when the squad 4 the AFCON came out, they said bla bla bla about Emenike not better than Wingie, now, something else. Let the team go now and discover another Emenike, the topic changes.. Nigerians! Una nr qet faith?

MY BROTHER HELP ME TELL THEM!!

Small time person go talk say we still need Yusuf Ayila and Danny Shittu. Nigeria has a population of 170 million+...do you have any idea the sheer amount of talent we have? After Brazil, we are the largest footballing country on earth! We have so much talent that we even have to give away some players that qualify to play for us. You know Adebayor was dropped by U-17 Flying Eagles handlers before he vexed and claimed Togo from his mother's side. If one drops out, there will be another. If Mikel, Enyeama, Onazi and Ambrose get injured today, there are thousands of equally talented Nigerian footballers begging god for the opportunity to prove themselves.

Show some faith in your fatherland, people!

Am kinda apprehensive in terms of our success with this team, i see majority of inexperienced weaklings in the squard, no beasty attacker of any sort among the lot, just keeping my fingers crossed.

No. He was injured before the world cup, and hence, wasn't selected.

Afam4eva: We currently don't have a striker as good as Emenike in our squad but the good thing is that our midfielders are up and doing and we can get the job done with average strikers.
How do u knw that? They dont write it on foreheads. Anyway, this SE attack will surprise you in the confedratns cup.

abiodunbest: the super eagle team may have enough quality to stand toe to toe against their opposition as you truely said but not onto their boss (Uruguay and Spain).
English could be a problem to Naija's sometimes (no offence). Wetin be Uruguay and Spain if them no be opposition too?

Re: Super Eagles FIFA Confederations Cup Squad! by Johnsinia(m): 12:17am On Jun 08, 2013
I neva fear spain, nt even 4 a bit, bc we pass dem, and we have a better record than them head - head in all level of futbal competition including female futbal n youth championshps. The only country i fear is Brasil bc they have better record than us, and nt spain or Argentina.
one tin i ve discova in SE is that, they play very well against d so-call best: in 1994, it was Burgaria, upon all the noice, they chop 3-0 in SE's hand. In 1996, it was loaded Brasil and Arg, they also fall wakata like bag of cement. In 1998, it was one of the most favourite team, spain. Infact, b4 d match oyinbo journalist don analyse am say dey(spain) go beat us like no man biz. But on dat faithful day, even young skillful Raul and co, no fit explain waitin our eagles use them do, they fall like empty sac 2-1 to our eagle. Offcourse, u knw wat happend in Afcon against ivory. What abt disguised barca (catalona, or within they call demsfs) in their own home, the highest they can do is to draw wit our 100% home base Eagle.
If they like, let dem make messi play 4 dem, history knws hw to favor Eagles against mouthed teams.

Re: Super Eagles FIFA Confederations Cup Squad! by Nobody: 12:23am On Jun 08, 2013
CFCfan: Javi Martinez, Spain's defensive midfielder, may thwart most of the SE counter-attacks. He is very fast and mobile. He is in d team because Xabi Alonso was ruled out thru injury. Alonso/Martinez are the reasons why Spain is barely threatened by counter attacks, as these 2 midfielders sit pretty deep.

Martinez na Black man? See, for pitch he no go smell Onazi. Forget all these high European ratings. In tournament football, it's mano e mano. Remember Czech Republic in 2006 that pundits were tipping for semi finals? Remember how Asamoah Gyan and some Ghanaian school children dismantled them with all the Nedved, Porbosky, Cech, Plasil, Jarosik? Who had heard of Razak Pimpong? In tournament football, all that form book stuff goes kaput.

olojuede01: In the middfield, i would pick Lukman Haruna. He was in fine form this last season defends and passes well, he also packs a mean shot in his right foot, someone in the mold of Lampard, I would also pick Martins ahead of the Gambo dude. He brings something else to the team. Most of the strikers in the team are similar. There is not really a fighter in the mold of Martins, Emenike and Odemwinge.
It's late already, we shall discuss this tomorrow morning. Good night

This is a very misleading analysis. Do you judge a Player's class by his names?? Very absurd. Did you ever know Onazi as a classy midfielder until he was called and fielded, then you watched him before qualifying him as Classy. But here, you never watched these guys play in the team, yet you are quick to make your sheer amaturish analysis about them. This team will surpise you and the boys you dispised, you will soon respect. Concerning your stance on Nba, its obvious you dont understand his pattern. Nba is potentially a striker, he got to be a midfielder in AFCON when Keshi ran out of attacking midfielders and you know what, his playing in the mid-field worked, especially against IVC as he was an unmarked attacker. That got us the goals against IVC and Burkinafaso in the final. I think, it still works as Mba has consequently become an attacking midfielder. Watch him play, you'd observe that. As for your comment on Keshi, that isnt the fact. You are just being sentimental. His dicisions worked in the past and it still works very well now and I believe it will more in the future.
