MadCow1: Robben is 30 and he's playing at his peak right now, Ronaldo is 29, also at his peak. Can u show me a Nigerian player at 30 who is playing at his peak? Mikel obi is 27 officially and already past his best. If u show me a Nigerian at 30 playing in the same level as robben then u win. |

abatically:This man we know all these. We have accepted dat prio to 2009 we cheated at age grade competitions.Fifa'a introduction of d MRI scan has done us good this far. We now have players with genuine or close to genuine age. It is now left to our football authorities to manage these boys. |

Emmysteve: Why must the 2018 wc be built on these players you highlighted above? I used to think the same we you do but not anymore. i think it you guys should stop calling on these 2013 under boys to be integrated into super eagles too soon. Our problem in this country is that we easily gets carried away by little success. A lot of people don't know that the present Eheanacho Kelechi is not the same with the one we saw at the u17 world cup. I couldn't believe my eyes when i saw Eheanacho during the qualifier against Namibia at Ahmadu Bello stadium Kaduna For ur info Prio to U17WC, Iheanacho was a sub. Have u heard of Bulbwa and Muasam? They kept Iheanacho on d bench for most of d U17 qualifiers.Both players failed d MRI test and Iheanacho profited from it. Both Bulbwa and Muazam are back in d team. They are full of so much quality dat dey kept Iheanacho on d bench nt as if Iheanacho has lost form. The senior players in that team are back. |

It is jst dat the senior players in the team that failed d MRI test are back. Ever heard of Bulbwa and Muazam? |

lloydtruth: and this. Arjen Robben 30 years old I know a lot of 28 year old Americans that look older than robben so what are u talking? Physical appearance means nothing. Wayne Rooney developed bald hair since when he was a kid. It became so embarrassing he had to undergo a surgery a few years ago. How many Nigerian players at 30 can run like robben. Robben at 30 is still very fit and plays at the highest level, Mikel at 27 is already past his best. Taiye Taiwo and ogbuke at 29 are past their best. Nsofor at 28 is already a dead wood. |
