BlackPikiN: Anybody who says Obodo and Agali flopped must be sick. Agali of Hansa Rostoc and Obodo of Perugia Kai!!. Op you better take their names off the list.

Obodo got injured while playing for naija and was sidelined for a very long time.

What about that Opabunmi, Azeez, Nworgu and ideye.

Akpoborie was no flop in the eagles. Na only Ogbeche but He's back banging goals for Dutch club.

bigass: There was this guy that people thought could replace Okocha. He wears 10 plaits his hair. he became so fat. i have forgotten his name

tsolz84: The list aint complete without the inclusion of Pius Ikedia;Mikelis Obilis,Victoristus Mosesalisis and other species of snails

tuffgongjo: abbey george debuted in d LG cup.

gazilion: These are examples of some nice and great players who never went far...I won't call them a flop...

O Lord help me never to shine and stop but to keep shining till I die...Amen

Let me think again...

pls.

Hernyolar:


And alongside Christian Obodo who also did very well, Abbey George was the MVP at that LG Cup!

He wore jersey #9 and was so excellent - drawing comparisons with an equally good Reuben Agboola half caste at Senegal '92 - only that he faded much later.

Such men weren't FLOPS. They only failed to sustain tempo.

Even Ijeh Peterside wasn't a flop. Wasn't it that Nigeria VS Egypt 1-1 Friendly that he played? You don't judge a man by such matches - lone games - where he played alongside a largely experimental/homebased Super Eagles. It is just like judging Zabaleta because he played for Argentina in their 4-1 loss in Abuja, assuming that was Zab's debut, for example.

FLOPs might be Stephen Ayodele Makinwa - Agreed. But even Ogbeche or Jonathan Akpoborie weren't flops for crying out loud.

Finally, the man nolongthing here is such a brain. He reminds me of naptu. Those guys are cerebral!

Tpappie: Wrong! Elvan Ekoku played another friendly for Nigeria

Tightguy: Who remembers that guy that scored a goal against ChelseaFC in the FA Cup & was later drafted to the SuperEagles ? That dude was a super flop both for country and later for his clubside.

rashygenius: U guys re wrong








THE GREATEST FLOP EAGLES EVER HAD WAS







Ayodele MAKINWA.he played 4 most serie A cLUBS Including iNTER,LAZIO,PARMA..yet he culd only found d net 2wice or so

Lily4star: Please what about that guy who was tagged to be the next Messi of Nigeria STANLEY OKORO, since the Under 17 tourney held in Nigeria years ago, abeg where em dey?

Dinocarex:
Loooolzz... U mean 'Little Messi'?? That guy was 20 years old, 4 years before the competition in 2009.. I think he finally played in a friendly for us and he was a total flop!!!

larrymoore: Another flop is joseph Yobo, while on The pitch, anytime the super Eagle fails to score. On the opponent's side, he will just score an own goal to demonstrate how it should be done.

Syenite: 1) Efan Ekoku: Widely tipped prio to 1994 AFCON to be better than Yekini.Only game he played was against Zaire in Qfinal where he missed a very glaring chance. He was subsequently returned to d bench and fastened with a seat belt. That was d only game he played for Nigeria even though he made the party to 1994 world cup.

2) Jonathan Akpoborie:The 1985 U17 winner, managed to break into the Super Eagles in late 1990s. He den had to contend with our then inform striker, Victor Ikpeba.Akpoborie saw few games and never really lived up to his rating. Things got worse for him with the coming of Julius Aghahowa and Ikpeba's former U17 team mate, Benedict Akuegbu. Akpoborie lost his place in d Super Eagles.

3) Victor Agali: Nigeria's 2000 Olympics hit man when he paired with Aghahowa, Yakubu Aiyegbeni and Pius Ikedia. Yekini left a very big shoe to b filled and Nigerians believed the huge striker was d man. He did feature in 2002 AFCON bt was sent home due to disciplinery action after first game in 2004 AFCON after we lost our opening game to Morocco. Agali and Babayaro kissed good bye to the Super Eagles after dat incidence.

4) Batholomew Ogbeche: One of d greatest errors in Nigeria's world cup selection history. The then 18yrs old Ogbeche had just entered lime light after a one season performance at PSG. A bicycle kick that saw d ball hit d cross-bar in a pre-world cup friendly against Scotland was all Coach Onigbinde saw that made him include Ogbeche in d party to 2002 WC and d rest is history.

5) Christian Ndubuisi Obodo: Fondly called bundle of skills was Ogbeche's team mate at 2001AYC. He was seen as a likely replacement for JJ Okocha. He hardly lived up to the expectations from Nigerians and was dropped from Super Eagles.

6) Joseph Akpala: Emerged highest goal scorer in d Belgian league for 2 straight seasons. He finally got a SE call up after so much pressure on d coaching crew. He did not leave up to his ranking and so was dropped only to b recalled for the 2013 confederations cup in Brazil. You and I saw his performance at dat tourney.

bigass: There was this guy that people thought could replace Okocha. He wears 10 plaits his hair. he became so fat. i have forgotten his name

MadCow1: Did Kanu Nwankwo not have a Brother in the Eagles at some point that couldn't even pass as a ball boy talk less of Football player.
