And for the three seasons no decent club came for him. Even a Turkish club.

The point is, he will never be considered by any National team. That's the point.

For example, if Iceland or Denmark has a player who scored 10 goals in the Eredivise and a player who scored 27 goals in the Danish league, they will pick the one in the Eredivise again and again.

That's how poorly National team coaches rates the Danish league.

Osimhen had a better season overall. Awoniyi ended the season in a strong note sha.

Lol..let me tell you... should any of the africa teams going for this year afcon have a player of Paul caliber
in the danish league... he will make their final list and he will likely strike for them in the tournament proper.

please go through the 23 nations afcon list if players in leagues lower than the danish leagues where not called up

please do that fast..i am waiting.

even ghana will hurriedly call up PAUL if he was their national same with cameroon and others

forgiveness:


They will if they don't have one in a better league.

Humility017:


that's european national teams but often time it does not work that way...
the iceland team that did so much miracle in the last euro nations cup were basically unknow and fishermen, doctors etc
likewise the wales team that played so well..had Robson-kanu who was clubless at that time.

likewise the Greece team that did wonders in portugal 2004 were not know players, also the portuguese who had the winning goal in the last euro was an unknow player.

so the fact a player is playing in a more advanced league don't actually transcend to a better national team performance

forgiveness:


They will if they don't have one in a better league.

forgiveness:

They don't have other better options.

Humility017:


and does Nigeria...have a proven national team player in a better league to call up instead of Paul.

forgiveness:


Yes, Nigeria has players in better leagues. Don't give assignment.

Humility017:


same way we won't have better options...
that goal Paul scored against....Egypt...is the boy saving grace...

andrew444:


those are the only 2 players in your team who are not average ,they are more than average ,I can even call both of them world class

The rest of your players are average and some of them are even below average

EOD

No be this Thread again?! The same Thread Epistles were dropped on daily Basis on how Iheanacho is an Alien?! An Hybrid of Messi and Ronaldo?! A Fox in the Box?! Better than Mbappe (now a World Cup Winner)?!

Make una continue dey award World Class to Toms and Jerrys. LMAO!

No country in this world will rate or pick a player in Danish or Egyptian league ahead of a player in the Belgium league.

Robert Skov who was the highest goalscorer in the Danish league with 27 goals was not considered good enough to make the Danish world cup team.

They rather picked strikers with around 3 to 6 goals from other leagues. That shows how lowly the Danish considered their league.


Can you explain?

forgiveness:


Chikena! Rohr has his preferred players.

Who is twisting between us? You are.

There is nothing you have corrected so far.

how is Skov the top scorer in 2017/2018? the top scorer scored 22 and he's not the one he's not even in the top 8

forgiveness:


They don't have other better options.

forgiveness:



You are right but he is the top striker for 2017/18 season. Why has he not played for Denmark?

Besides, why was their top striker in the Danish league dropped?

andrew444:


If I talk say you dey disgrace your self people go talk say Andrew dey rude ,you can't just come here and lie in our face to win an arguement I keep on telling you that .

How is Robert skov the highest go scorer in the danish league ?

3 danish players scored more goals than Robert skov and they didn't make it and yet you want Robert skov to make the squad ?

Denmark have better player from others league so you don't expect them to pick players from Denmark okay ,the only forward picked from their league is victor fisher ,the so called victor fisher I mentioned was lucky because Nicolas bentdner was injured

Now as good as the Belgium league why didn't they pick strikers from their league and drop players from better league ? It should be only 3 players from their league that made their squad which is tielemans,dendoncker and a goal keeper

Even the top scorer of the Belgium league before the World Cup was a Tunisian player and he didn't make the Tunisia squad .

forgiveness:



He is the highest goal scorer for this season yet never played in the European league? Why?

Why were none of those strikers considered good enough for the national team despite scoring more goals than a from Poland league who made the list? Why? That's the point.

The Danes doesn't rate

Victor Fisher was chosen because he played in the Bundesliga that season. See someone accusing others of using Google as if he doesn't use Google.

Use your brain. You can't compare Belgium with Denmark. Belgium picked players from big clubs in top 3 leagues but Denmark picked player with lesser goals from Polish league.

Is that how poorly they rate their league, the Danish league?

There is the possibility that players from the Belgium league will make National teams but that can't be said of the Danish league.

I mean, players in Belgium league will make the national team ahead of the Danish league any time any day. That's why Belgium league is among the top 10 leagues that contributed players to the world cup. Fact

Can that be said of the Danish league?

The Tunisian didn't the squad because they had someone like Musa in the team.

comodo:

This one u don lie be that. 2017/2018 season, this dude was a complete wack. Played 20 games in all completions scoring only 1 solitary goal. Bros fear God small. This season he has been immense. But its not a world cup year. Pls stop twisting facts just cos your one directional Awoniyi was not included.

Humility017:


you are taking this awoniyi issue too far...he is not better than those called up.
Rohr list is very fair enough and i thank God he is a german and not a nigerian
so we can't accuse him of being tribal

iSlayer2:


LOL!

Humility017:
how you see am nah?

wayodude:


Please remind me what team and league Christian Bassogog was playing for when he fired Cameroon to the AFCON title in 2017.

Did they have options in better leagues?

Please I need you to do this research yourself and tell us. Please

godspeed:


Bros, u can be sure there is no way a 25- man list will satisfy everybody and contain all the qualified players.

This has always been the case everywhere and every time and certainly did not start with Rohr nor is it peculiar to him only.

Every coach takes the liberty to take controversial decision from time to time leaving the fans whinning, I guess this also adds to the intrigue of the game.

Look at the 94 team we love so much ,Westhoff's list did not fully satisfy everybody. I mean I know of people back then who complained about the omission of Mike obiku and ugbade.

It's not only a Nigerian thing I know. Wasn't Dybala omitted from Argentina's team to the world cup?

Romario at France 98?
Cantona at France 98?
Jo for Kaka in 20014?

And then, even if awoniyi was included in the team, do u seriously expect that he will play?

Apart from u, I don't know any Nigerian fan that will seriously miss awoniyi at the AFCON, so what's the fuss?
