yea the boy have really improved and similar to liverpool's gomez. learnt he is interested to dump england for 9ja.


players that i would love to be replaced in the super eagles are:
john ogu- hapoel beer sheva
ogenyi onazi-trabzonspor
brian idowu-locomotive moscow
kenneth omeruo-leganes
odion ighalo-changchun yatai
joel obi-chievo verona

players to replace them:
phillip billing anyanwu- huddlesfield
james igbekeme- real zaragoza
timori fikayo- derby county
kevin akpoguma- hoffenheim(he is not rated by the germans so i believe with time we will get him)
success- watford
ejaria- glasgow ranger

Emmyboy, take Omeruo out of that list. I like Akpoguma too but I don't think he is better than Omeruo now. Both of them are needed

you cannot find the best. Let me loud this to all of you now


Stop looking for a non-existent best. Uzoho cannot be the best, he can only be better. The next person you will get after Uzoho, will not be the best, he will only be better. Looking for the best is like looking for the most beautiful


There is no 'the best' waiting to be found. Stop disturbing us about a 'best'..... There were better players than Yekini, Martins, Ayegbeni, even Enyeama, that we never got to see in the GwG..... But you will call them some of the best. There is no 'the best', give it a rest

Who were the the players better than Yekini, Martins, Ayegbeni and Enyeama during their time?

Give me fact and not falsehood.

I admire you alot even though I don't know you in person.
you're a very intelligent lady...
all you wrote up carries weight

forgiveness:


He is now fit.

Okay now I see

Truidstar:


Good replacements. But has Phillip billing Anyanwu indicated interest in us or rather does he know we exist as a country?

He doesn't know Nigeria exists yet he Twitted a good will message to the super eagles when they left for Russia? Surprisedly, he snubbed Denmark in the tweet.

Danielnino00:



If Tomori want to progress further, he should cut his ties with Chelsea.. Same thing should b done by Aina, and Tammy..
Chelsea isn't a club that encourage the development of youth players.. no matter how much potential you show,they will still ship you out on loan..

Nice one bro but that doesn't guarantee success, remember Solanke is still crap and Tammy was worse in Swansea. If u are good, u are good. See Davies, Gray, Gomez, Arnord etc

Rohr don start again.

. that man matter tire me the man is really biased towards German based players

Just saw a rerun of our 2007 U17 victory.
RIP Yemi Tella.

Nigeria's worst U17 set up ever in the history of Nigerian football. Grandfathers playing against kids 20 years younger

Lol. Very true.

tbaba1234:


Igbekeme will be in a la liga club in no time if he keeps up his performances. There is certainly space in the eagles for him.

Somebody who called Igbekeme a winger forgetting he covered up for an obvious reason, and u are taking him seriously? Igbekeme who is rated the best CM currently in the whole segunda

Loooool....Thank God for MRI.......i am thinking that PERHAPS they brought that MRI to checkmate Africans always winning .....but it has turned out to be MORE POSITIVE for us...since its implementation...we have produced more players that are PROGRESSING steadly....Akinsola just disappeared like that...such a fine player...Lookman...Goooooosh injury everywhere every time...very painful to recall the De Gea was Spain`s goalkeeper at that time..

Bro dis one wey Enyimba dey share ban like akara give their best players, how they won take beat Rayon Sport nah? Me im not understanding oo

Hahahahahahahahaha u dun see am nah. Little wonder he was as slow as snail on the pitch, the few times we felled for his tricks and invited him to the Super Eagles

.

The only time Rohr gave us something was during the World Cup Qualifiers. He gave us a new style of play. Gave us a team and an Identity! But what got into his head and his team no one can say.

One thing that is obvious is that the man is short of ideas to propel the team forward.
The earlier we agree to this the better.

Concerning tactical and technical acumen, he is lacking! The first time SOME MEMBERS spotted it and raised it here that the man has some tactical deficiency. They were all silenced and crucified for stating the obvious. They were called so many names and tagged prophets of doom. But it seems people are just catching up in reality to what they saw then.

As for me, I have no single hope for the SEs under as long as Rohr is still the head coach and technical advisor. We will only be moving without real progress! That is why I have stopped posting or guessing preferred call ups and line ups.

Anthony Ujah is Rohr's savior.

Icon4s:


Totally uncalled for bro.

I just dey watch them. The earlier they resolve this issue, the better for both parties, otherwise...well the disappointments would be better imagined

This got me Laughing.

I can only imagine what Ivory Coast's attacking front will look like with their two wing wizards Zaha on the left and Pepe on the right in the Afcon. They dont really have that definite striker but their wings are their identity and promises lots of goals, could even be the deadliest in the Afcon. I wish Rohr could tap into our wing abilities too

Afcon 2019 go sweet oo, I hope Morocco hosts sha

What did they look like when they had: Drogba, Kalou, Jervinho, Yaya-Toure, Tiote, Kolo-Toure, Zokora, Ebuoe and co?

09 set was even worse. I remember Westerhof saying they should be drafted in to SE before they fizzle out because most were at least 21.

forgiveness:


I disagree Onazi and Omeruo should be replaced neither do I agree James and Fikayo should be given a look.

I have watched Fikayo play live several times up close and personal. Yes he has improved.

It's difficult for me to say No to any player because the standard level of achievement that should exist before a player is invited is now VERY QUESTIONABLE.

In reality we do not have one. We are inviting B team youth players to the SE.

From what I have seen he is improving but he is not better than Aina who is considerably ahead of him.

to those who love good rap,bars n rhymes pls try n get eminem's kamikaze album.

That's a lie bro 09 has given us some meaningful players for the national team

Omeruo, Onazi, Kayode are all 09 while not even one person made it from 07

damn right boss!

True but still insist the age cheating allround was crazy in that set.
Onazi is already looking like he's reaching retirement at 26.
