if he decides to turn to us i think we should bring him on board. though his addition to the team will be of minimal importance or significance but good competition for a shirt in the team will be a welcomed development

Turn ko, Thunder ni

I ardently hope he is proud enough to keep waiting for the Danes. He can rep us with Instagram flags

I just like wetin this coach talk, for billing to get 10 cap for Denmark, It will take a miracle
.
l.....

enmark coach insists Premier League stars
keeping Billing out of squad not Nigeria
comments


Bournemouth midfielder Philip Billing has
been omitted from the latest Denmark squad
announced on Monday ahead of the
upcoming 2022 World Cup qualifiers against
Moldova and Austria.

The Danish-Nigerian star has been in brilliant
form in the new season, scoring five goals in
nine appearances for the Cherries, who top
the Championship standings.
Few months ago, Billing stated that he was
considering switching his international
allegiance from Denmark to Nigeria after he
was not named in Denmark's squad to the
2020 European Championship.

Denmark manager Kasper Hjulmand has
emphasized that Billing's omission from his
latest squad has nothing to do with his
previous comments about playing for the
Super Eagles, adding that the midfielder was
considered for the last matches only for him
to pull out of the roster due to illness.
"You can forget all about that this summer.
It's out of this world, " Hjulmand said to BT .
"And I also took him to the last matches,
where he unfortunately got sick before. So
there is nothing in it."

Hjulmand has claimed that Billing, who is
comfortable playing as a defensive and
offensive midfielder, was not picked due to
tactical reasons.


He pointed out that Billing is behind Brentford
duo Nørgaard and Jensen, Tottenham
Hotspur's Højbjerg and Sevilla's Delaney in
his pecking order of central midfielders, while
Chelsea's Christensen and Valencia's Wass
are utility players who can fill in in central
midfield.
"It is not an opt-out of Philip Billing. But we
have 'Nør' (Christian Nørgaard), Mathias
(Jensen), Pierre (Højbjerg) And Thomas
(Delaney) - and these are the ones I have
chosen here. And it has given us the
opportunity to get an more offensive player.
"We can put Daniel Wass in centrally and we
can throw Andreas Christensen up in midfield,
so I think we are well covered.
"So it's not an opt-out of Philip Billing, and it
has nothing to do with this summer. That
story is out of the world"

Billing's only cap for his country of birth was
in a friendly against Faroe Islands in October
2020

How we are able to accurately predict situations like this and these players and their managers can't, is still a surprise to me.
Who is deceiving or deceived billing, Eze, Olise, tomori, Abraham, tosin, etc that they will have a fair chance with some of these European countries?

Ex-Juventus star Vincenzo Iaquinta says Victor Osimhen’s physical and innate qualities make the Super Eagles ace an extraordinary striker in a similar mould to when he (Iaquinta) was at the peak of his game.

Osimhen endured a few criticisms in his first year in Naples after managing ten goals following his club-record switch from Ligue 1 side Lille.


But some of the youngster’s most prominent critics have become his praise singers after starting the new Serie A campaign stunningly.

Osimhen has started the season in brilliant form, becoming Napoli’s leading marksman with six goals in his last four games. Remarkably, four of those goals have arrived in his last three league games, while he also added another two in the Europa League.

Osimhen’s excellent goalscoring run makes him the most prolific striker in the European top 5 leagues alongside Benzema and even better than Borussia Dortmund’s Erling Haaland.


And the 2007/08 Coppa Italia top scorer is convinced that the union of Spalletti and Osimhen can power Napoli to the Scudetto title.

“For clarity, Osimhen does not argue: speed, technique, and power are the innate qualities of this extraordinary striker,” Iaquinta told Il Mattino, as per TuttoNapoli.

“Spalletti, however, when he has this type of bomber, goes to the party because he manages to enhance the attack to the depth with his way of setting the manoeuvre.

“Osimhen has characteristics very similar to those I had: high and fast, he attacks the depth: there are few forwards like that. Today, with these qualities, there is only Haaland who has some crazy times.

“With Spalletti, Napoli got off to a great start, with an extraordinary place that can become enthralling: it is useless to hide, also thanks to Osimhen, they (Napoli) can aim to win the Scudetto.”

Osimhen has emerged as one of Serie A’s brightest stars. Statistically, only Inter Milan’s Nicolo Barella has outperformed the Super Eagles forward in the top-flight this campaign.

Unknown report from owngoal is saying that a new addition will be included in super eagles squad tomorrow. Many are suggesting that it’s either Ejaria or lookman. Personally, I hope it’s ejaria because we have so many similar players to lookman. If ejaria is included, then the search for super eagles 10 is over. Ejaria isn’t a jj okocha, but he is as good as any creative 10 in Africa now

Does Ejaria not play in Championship ? Why would any sensible coach skip a player who plays for Laliga , week in week out for a Championship player ? This is preposterous , I swear !

So , Nwakali doesn't deserve an invite after performing in the Laliga ? That's just unfair.

Firstly , people concluded his career was dead and he proved them wrong and returned with decent showings. Then , they said he is too sluggish but the numbers show otherwise. Then Kingsley was invited out of nowhere with no club action and suddenly everyone who called me names for sticking my neck out for Nwakali is quiet. Now , Ejaria and Oliseh are being clamored for and what about Kelechi....

I don't know how any football pundit would think these English boys will make it in Super Eagles.....nobi today.

As if all the clamor for the Ejaria and Oliseh has ever changed Rohr's lineup.

Nwakali sooner or later would get his invite. Consistency not hype.

Reminds me of Joel Obi (chinchin sours in my mouth undecided)
