At this crucial moment? This will create unnecessary distraction which may lead to illfeelings and disunity among these players.
Re: John Obi-Mikel Is Captain Of The Super Eagles by huntax(m): 2:40pm On Mar 24, 2016
I really hope Iheanachor has been included in the national team. The team should be built around this gun as he has the talent and drive the team deserves. Normally a creative midfielder, has developed into a lethal striker for Man City. I'd play him in a 4-1-4-1 formation just behind Ighalo. But I doubt he will get a start, with Nigerian coaches always addressing seniority over class.

This is very good. Hope Oliseh is watching and learning wherever he may be that this is how to change the team captain.

I pray we win tomorrow.

Mikel doesn't want responsibilities on the field and you give him the captains arm band? Oh boy!!
Re: John Obi-Mikel Is Captain Of The Super Eagles by Seun360(m): 2:41pm On Mar 24, 2016
Why strip Musa off the captain band when u are a mere temporary gaffer, issorai, let's see how u will survive Salah, El Enely and Hector Cuper.
Re: John Obi-Mikel Is Captain Of The Super Eagles by Goke7: 2:42pm On Mar 24, 2016
Just hope that the three points will be in the bag cos if I know Nigerians very well, they will eat Mikel raw if Nigeria looses.

Congrats Mikel.

A "mere" what?

Temporary maybe but not a "mere".....

He's still the boss and even Musa knows "injustice" was done when Mikel was denied captaincy when Oliseh stripped Enyeama.

Siasia na coach?

Yes, and with a better record and more experience than Oliseh. Besides, he likes his teams playing 'entertaining football'
Re: John Obi-Mikel Is Captain Of The Super Eagles by 9ijaprince(m): 2:50pm On Mar 24, 2016
I keep wondering what's going through Sunday oliseh's mind when he made musa super eagles captain. In all honesty,musa is not ripe to wear the captain's band of Nigerian senior national team. There are qualities that a player should have to be made a leader of a team, such as number of caps,exposure, charisma, composure,communication skills, etc. With all due respect to musa, he is one of our best players but he is not the right guy to mann the captain's band, I hope this issues are resolved amicably.

Mikel now our captain? Our football is dead

Worry not Sir.

Siasia also rates Iheanacho very very highly. He will play a part in the games tomorrow and on the 29th in alexandria either as a starter or from the bench.

Nacho is the leader and face of Nigeria's Generation next (the next golden generation of Nigerian football-- first golden generation was centrally between 1990-2000)

This genertation next also includes Alex Iwobi, Sadiq Umar (AS Roma), Isaac Success(Granada, will move to watford next season) , Moses Simon (KAA Gent), Musa Yahaya (Tottenham on loan at Portimonense), Kelechi Nwakali (Arsenal), Chidiebere Nwakali (Man City on loan at IK Start, Norway), Nura Abdullahi (AS Roma), Samuel Chukwueze (Arsenal), Musa Mohammed (Istanbul BB), Wilfred Ndidi (KRC Genk), Chidozie Awaziem (FC Porto), Chidera Ezeh (FC Porto), Victor Osimhen (Wolfsburg.. Starts contract in 2017), Dele Alampasu (SC Feirense, portugal), and a host of other Top and fast-rising young Nigerian super talents in football.


The future is bright.... #smiles

He only did well with age group teams which we all know Nigerians use over age players.

He failed to qualify Nigeria to AFCON 2012, he couldn't do his permutations against Guinea, A win would have seen us through to the tournament as a best lose but if wanted a guarantee victory which the Guineans pounced on his stupidity and got the crucial equalizer. Anyway, the match no be tomorrow?

I trust Cuper and his boyz.

Nice one from SiaSia the peoples coach,he handled it very well,calling both players privately and allowing musa to go to the media,informing them he is not the captain again,Unlike what the pundit master(Oliseh)did causing chaos in the national team and running away thinking we wont defeat Egypy,making Enyeama to go into force retirement.
Pls tell Obi mikel not to pass backward again

Is it Musa's place to announce the new captain? We don't have a coach and PR people anymore? Seems like the national team is run like a local street or area team. No wonder why they play like that.
