Keshi Invites Uche But Drops Moses by KAYMANjayi(m): 2:52pm On Nov 01, 2014
Villarreal striker,Ikechukwu Uche has earned a recall to the Nigeria squad ahead of this month’s 2015 Africa Cup of Nations (Afcon) qualifying matches with Congo and South Africa.

Uche last played for the Super Eagles at the 2013 Africa Cup of Nations in South Africa.

He was however invited for the games against Congo and South Africa by coach Stephen Keshi who has also been recalled by the Nigeria Football Federation (NFF) after he was sacked in October.

Surprisingly, Chelsea winger Victor Moses was left out despite churning out consistently electrifying displays in England.

The 23-year-old currently on loan at Stoke City was invited for October’s double header against Sudan but missed both games due to injury.

The list:

Goalkeepers: Vincent Enyeama (Lille OSC, France); Austin Ejide (Hapoel Be’er Sheva, Israel); Chigozie Agbim (Gombe United, Nigeria)

Defenders: Elderson Echiejile (Monaco FC, France); Juwon Oshaniwa (Ashdod FC, Israel); Efe Ambrose (Celtic FC, Scotland); Solomon Kwambe (Sunshine Stars, Nigeria); Godfrey Oboabona (Rizespor FC, Turkey); Kenneth Omeruo (Middlesbrough FC, England); Azubuike Egwuekwe (Warri Wolves, Nigeria)

Midfielders: John Mikel Obi (Chelsea FC, England); Ogenyi Onazi (SS Lazio, Italy); Hope Akpan (Reading FC, England); Raheem Lawal (Eskisehirspor FC, Turkey); Omatsone Aluko (Hull City, England); Tony Edjomari (Nasarawa United, Nigeria)

Forwards: Ahmed Musa (CSKA Moscow, Russia); Emmanuel Emenike (Fenerbahce FC, Turkey); Gbolahan Salami (Warri Wolves, Nigeria); Osaguona Ighodaro (Enugu Rangers, Nigeria); Ikechukwu Uche (Villareal FC, Spain); Aaron Samuel (Guangzhou R&F, China); Sunday Emmanuel (SV Scholz Grodig, Austria); Babatunde Michael (Volyn Lutsk, Ukraine): Emem Eduok (Dolphins FC, Nigeria)

I just can't figure out why he dropped Moses. What do you think?
