what has aluko done this season?
it should be clear to you...that aluko will likely not make the world cup party....

Icon4s:


Forget about time past.

We are talking of the present.

Are we presenting a team of time past or present in Russia?

You even said you have watched Sokari in time past. I may presume you are referring to the 2015 U20 WC and 2015 AAG.

Looking at the current crop of midfielders in the team, what can Sokari bring to the table that will be better than what the current crop can bring?
You cannot just conclude that Solari is better than Mikel Agu and Joel Obi when he, Sokari himself, is not tested at that level. The gulf in class between Joel Obi and Kingsley Sokari is just too much. If there is any other midfielder out there that deserves a call or recall ahead of Russia it is Joel Obi.

Kingsley Sokari is not a Super Eagles material. You can quote me any where.

Humility017:

I agree wit you...that Joel Obi is top class ahead when he is injury free and fit to play he has my nod....
but I will prefer sokari to ogu and agu anyday anytime...

sokari has better ball control and passing skills than the two above....we need a midfielder that can not only shoot from the midfield but can also create chances for the forward lines

Icon4s:


You see the problem from your last paragraph is what I have been arguing against. Where and when did you watch Sokari to come to this conclusion?

You said you have not really watched him play in the Tunisian league. Was it from his U20 performance? Because if na that one then players like Musa Yahaya and Taiwo Awoniyi too should be called na.

Icon4s:


Kingsley Sokari....One of the most disliked players on this thread. Hahahaha.

What was his sin?

He benched Kelechi Iheanacho at the 2015 U20.

Humility017:

sir...you talking as if...getting this clips and match hightlights is a difficult tasks...

I make do wit YouTube all the time...not just watch him..but his team in a while...

the boy should be invited and let's see what he has to offer.....

safarigirl:
lol....the failed U20 World Cup? He must not have been very efficient then

Anyway, I barely remember that tournament, even less him cuz I didn't watch it. I just don't like that he looks like Oritsefemi

Meanwhile, how did he miss out on the CAF 30-man APOTY list for Africa-based players if he is as great as that Tunisian fan says?

ChrisKels:


Bia this woman, looks don't play football. Handsome or ugly, as long as you are good with ur legs and brains, then u r good to go. Everybody must not look like Ekong and Awaziem. Kante comes to mind, Pogba too... Ugly dudes, doing magic with the their legs.

Seriously that point "CAF APOTY" is a salient one. I'm pondering over it already. If he doesn't move to France this January, then the media is just being hyperbolic

daveP:
And you believe Sokari would make it? Aluko has done enough to warrant invitation. He's cunny with the ball and fears no opponent. Rohr has 19 already. so i guess some of these names will have to struggle to be in the "fantastic four"!

safarigirl:
and neither will Sokari, I regret to inform you now


See as you even quickly drop Ogu on top Joel Obi that has not even be rumoured to be a prospect. See, that March game is key for anyone that has plans to go to Russia, so if you no see your name for that list in March, na to go soak chaplet for water because your chances of making the WC will be 15% tops.

I don talk am before, dropping integrated players for people that are yet to be tested under Rohr is an extreme move. Even leas for those that we are not sure Rohr is even considering

safarigirl:
if we can find better-looking people that are good with their legs and brains, why settle for Oritsefemi?

Which France e wan move to? Make we dey look now, January is only but a week away

TheGoodJoe:


I doubt you are sure if Kingsley Sokari is Super Eagles material. That is a call for the coaching crew. I hope they have studied his tapes. If they feel he can offer something to the team, then invite him and try him out. However, ruling him out does not seem fair to me.

ChrisKels:


Hahaha isi okpukpu merry Xmas biko. Now that there ain't no glut of sexy/cerebral better ballers, let's not cast away the one we have because he ain't no Chris Author.

Him fit move oo, Nice we read, is hot on his hills.

safarigirl:
oho! We have heard better about many others that have come to camp and are still not sure of where they belong till today.

"He's a hybrid of Messi and CR7" "He reminds me of a younger Iniesta" "He's quick on his feet and his free-kicks are similar to Beckham's"..... Nothing wey we never hear for this thread, only for the player to show and people will be shouting " Where Rohr see this otu?" "My grandma sabi ball pass this guy nah" "This one suppose dey sell gala for Oshodi, who put am for pitch?"

My brother, no be today this kain tori start

safarigirl:
the thing is becoming somehow.

Rohr needs just four players in maybe three positions. How will he drop Ogu even if he wants to add Joel? The midfield is the thinnest part of the squad, and somebody is still saying they should drop one of two DMF's, how? We have just Ogu and Ndidi playing DMF, Onazi is not a DMF and neither is Mikel, so why will you drop Ogu for Sokari that we have not even seen in proper action? Because a Tunisian fan appreciated him?

Please, let us be conservative in our expectations as far as players invitations, we shouldn't act like the poor man who wins a lottery and decides to splurge on irrelevant things rather than build what he already has

Humility017:


Babe...relax. one should never stop trying...you never can tell who among them...will prove good...

let's try Joel and sokari both...and let's see how good they're......
we need at least one more good midfieler who can create good goal scoring opportunities.

Humility017:

maybe you forget...that shehu too is a DM.

AIG07:
CHAN is next month!

Need answers/clarification on eligible players for the competition. Is it meant for players only playing within a qualified nation or any player anywhere within the African continent?

ChrisKels:


Bia nwoke m onwekwa ihe mmadu ga-eme ya emeta gi? I bu usu? Ikwugi n'elu, ikwugi n'ala. Hundreds of pages back, we're u not the one saying Agu never impressed u? Now u don't want him dropped so that another person will be tried in his stead? Nawa oo

safarigirl:
lol....let Shehu stick to his RB duties. I doubt he would make a better DM than Ogu just like he made a poor RWB.

Icon4s:


I doubt you know that Sokari and Agu do not play in same position. So why drop Agu for Sokari?
