He didn't struggle in EPL either, he just wasn't noticed playing alongside Lemina and RLC. If na midfield, atm I think Africans or players with African origin has been better in the past few years (8 years). We're only struggling at the flanks, with Mane being exceptional.

Playing for Napoli with quality players is different from playing at Fulham with ekuke players

Anguissa is surrounded by Fabian Ruiz and other top class players at Napoli cant be compared to the ekukes at Fulham

Ola Aina knew he stood no chance. Ola Aina was surplus to requirements. Ola Aina was never good enough. Ola Aina would have ended up like Nedum Onuorah hence he ran to us. Dude never wanted us, but he was smart and saw the clearer picture. Wan Bissaka hasn't gotten a look in, na Ola Aina wan get. Ola Aina wouldn't have made England top 6 right backs if he had chosen England over Nigeria, so my boy had no other option than to pitch his tent here. This is reality, no yeye emotions. And yes, Algeria has better infrastructures and govt. than Nigeria. Hey! Algeria is listed as a terrorist infested country, because they don't breed terrorists the way Nigeria does

Ola Aina has at 2018 was bright,besides Olise is down the pecking order in England. And your argument recks of fallacy because I don’t understand what Terrorism has to do with this arguement.
Nigeria is bigger football nation and has a bigger economy than Algeria. Southern Nigeria where the super eagles play is also secure. When it comes to football these things come first.

This same okeleji that reported olise's story is reporting this.
I don't know whether his reports r true or false,
But from the choice of his words n tones,he is not a reputable journalist.
Not until i see olise play for algeria or come out to say he choose algeria over us before i will believe this guy's report

Osimhen is causing serious problem for everyone. Those who gave him too many spaces (such as Udinese, Sampdoria and Fiorentina) regretted it bitterly. But it also went badly for those who tried to build a bunker, for example Juve and Cagliari. For Napoli, on the other hand, it is a godsend, because Spalletti can find the right solution to hurt each time ", reported the newspaper about the Nigerian player for Luciano Spalletti's team.

Now I know what your problem is. It is actually stack ignorance, for you to have made that bolded statement. Bros before you make this statement elsewhere, please, outside this country we all are Nigerians, no one gives a fvck what geopolitical region one is from. To an outsider, whatever happens in Sokoto affects a man from far away Rivers State. To an outsider, Nigeria just like its brothers like Afghanistan, Pakistan etc, are terrorists breeding nations. In the last decade, the name "Nigeria" is synonymous to boko haram, Fulani terrorism, banditry, jihad etc, just as Afghanistan is synonymous to Taliban, they don't know those demarcations. You only know the demarcations because you live here in Nigeria. Nigeria isn't an entity to be proud of, so don't blame the kids for their choices, because nobody wanna associate with failure.

Those who want to play for Nigeria will play for Nigeria. It will be impossible to stop them.

IF any player eligible for Nigeria is called up once and they say they need time to decide, that's fine. We leave it there. When they have finished thinking about it THEY should inform the NFF and they will be invited to join camp and fight for a shirt.

IF they decide not to join that's also fine, we move on swiftly.

Some will join us and some will not. What we must however do is give them the chance by inviting them ONCE.

The reason i say we need to invite them and make it public is to avoid lies coming out further down the road.

e.g Gabby Agbonlahor. Anyone who knows him knows he is 100% Brummie and I am sure the thought of playing for Nigeria over England would have made him laugh deep down. There was no chance of that happening in 1 million years! Now he has retired with a grand total of 3 England Caps to his name he always says he picked England because NFF didnt reach out to him. Lies!

e.g Fikayo Tomori. Eligible for Canada, England and Nigeria. He has already come out to say he wasn't contacted by the NFF. This is not true. He is still one England 1 cap since his debut in 2019 against Kosovo. We are watching....

We are the Super Eagles of Nigeria!! The country may be crap but the Super Eagles is without doubt the biggest brand in International Football on the African Continent. If you doubt me ask furcknig Nike!!

*drops the mic*


What makes you the biggest brand? You think this is mid 90s to early 2000s?

You are really funny with the way you argue grin. Most popular cities in Nigeria are Lagos,Abuja,Port hacourt and Kano.
Every Nigeria in diaspora knows the gap in development between northern and southern Nigeria. and Nigeria cannot be placed in the same category with Afghanistan.Nigeria’s PR in the outside world is not synonymous to terrorism.
So many foreign borns in sports associate with Nigeria Anthony Joshua,Kamaru usman,adesanya,even Tammy Abraham came to Nigeria some months ago. You are trying too hard to make sense but it’s not working grin

Notwithstanding our past stars from previous decades, our jerseys from the 2018 WC and onward pretty much cemented our status as the biggest brand on the continent. Casuals who rarely followed soccer praised the kits. I was in Canada for a while and random people on the street donned the kits. The move to Nike has immensely helped our visibility and made us one of the most recognizable brands in the world. It's too bad our social media department isn't leveraging this.

No shades to Awoniyi, but he is nowhere near Osimhen's level.

He is not as fast. He is better at finishing, but he doesn't bully defenders. His press is not as good as Osimhen's. He is also very static.

You think if one is not fast, static and can’t finish one will be playing in Bundesliga, right?

If we rate the goals both scored this season, which of them scored the best goal?

Do top 5 and let me see. Thanks

How many pro seasons has Aina played in the top flight, and who were occupying that position for England during Aina's first two top flight seasons?

Did you know that from 2016 through 2018, while Aina was shuttling between Chelsea youth team and the English championship, Wan Bissaka was already a regular in the EPL with crystal palace? Aina never stood a chance because even before the likes of Arnold, there were players like Clyne, Young et al all playing for England and below Walker in the pecking order, they were all better than Aina
