ow11: If only Keshi invited the following,

Odemwingie (Hardly played any football between January and June, 56 caps; 9 goals, played in AFCON 2004,2006,2008,2010 which we all won and failed to qualify in 2012)

Nsofor (Been mostly injured and out of form for two seasons where he played 43 games and scored a mind boggling 3 goals)

Anichebe (asked to be left out of the squad although he had 6 league goals in 26 games, Kind of wish he made himself available)

Dike (Injured)

K. Uche (Injured)

I. Uche (anonymous in South Africa and his miscue lead to the Burkina Faso attack that resulted in their late equaliser. Same Maigari would have questioned the rationale to pick him had he joined the squad and remained anonymous. I would rather try out a new player (Ujah & Gambo) in a friendly tournament than one that struggled to gel in January)

Martins (Maybe Keshi made a genuine error here, no one is perfect. Should have replaced Emeka Eze who never played)

Yobo (Same guy everybody hated in January)

Haruna (Same guy that turned his back to defend against Greece during the world cup. I don't blame Keshi if he doesn't rate him)

Joel Obi (injured)

Igiebor (injured)

Then Nigeria would have trashed Uruguay, beaten Spain, hammered Italy and Pummelled Brazil because the players listed above failed to appear in Brazil. If only *bites finger*

Maigari should fire Keshi and appoint a Serbian or Romanian we have never heard of, pay him millions of dollars they do not have and give him a list of players that includes all those listed above. I tell you faa, Nigeria will score an average of three goals per game, concede none on their way to lifting the world cup in 2014.

UP MAIGARI!! UP NFF!!! GOD BLESS NAIJERIYA!!!!

Very good. You should have highlighted how Martins almost cost us the match against Kenya in Calabar and how he left La Liga to play in the US, a sign that he's only thinking of the money now and his career is ending.
Anichebe 1 goal in 11 appearances for Nigeria would have scored a hattrick against Spain. He also has 18 goals in 130 appearances for Everton.

“The coach doesn’t have the sole responsibility on squad selection. We all have to contribute. This team belongs to 165 million people”

But the coach has the sole shame if the team loses.
Using his logic if the team belongs to 165M Nigerians, let the 165M people come and give their contribution on what needs to be done.
Did we expect to win the tourney ? At our best today can we beat Spain? or Uruguay?

@NFF, why employ a coach when you guys can make selection? why tamper with players bonuses when you didn't tell the world what your pay entails? so sad that the point man in the glass house could tell the world why the local lads shouldn't be at the confeds. CHAN, qualifiers is on but NFF are less concerned because they don't believe in what they govern.

If CAF had allowed players based outside of the continent to partake in the CHAN then we shall be hearing loud noise of why a particular player isn't in the team. do they know the local players at all?

Godfrey Oboabona has done 25 caps already, he has played against some big players yet he is rock solid, maybe Drogba will attest to this. www.footyalert..com

Its true-we have better players than the players selected for the competition.This is the argument against Nigerian coaches handling the National team,they will simply field their boys and use sentiments because of their relationships or interest with certain player(s)-a white or foreign coach will not do this,because he does not have personal relationhips with the players.Keshi is using our National team to feed his interest.we need a better tactician/coach for Super eagles,Keshi is mediocre,not the best for the Eagles,we all know that.

naijaboyof4life:

For the milionth time that I will say this, Moses was injured, emenike was injured, onazi was injured, how do you expect us to win when key players are missing. remove 3 key players from spain and see what till happened or yeah we saw what happened in the confed final.... they lost. Some key players were missing. Look at barcelona game v bayern messi was injured and that affected barcelona's game. It is just the strikers that need change butonce again moses and emenike were injured? Sometimes I wonder foolishness is not running at the top, like leader like follower, clueless.

So it takes 8 home based players to replace 3 injured foreign pros..hmmmm never knew, thanks for this outta the world clarity.

Let no NFF interfere in Keshi's choice of players

I never knew @NFF are now a group of top class coach.
