An Ex-Super Eagles Player Segun Odegbami, has told managers of the Nigerian senior team not to take Mikel Obi to AFCON 2019. Segun Odegbami who noted that Mikel Obi has been absent from the Nigerian National team since Nigeria's last group stage game against Argentina at the 2018 World Cup in Russia, added that he should not be taken to AFCON 2019 because he is not the player he was. 


He told ThisDay; "Recall Mikel? History is against such decision. Mikel is not the player he once was. We have seen his best and it cannot be recreated or better. What did it fetch?" Odegbami added that new players cannot emerge if the old players do not retire, sighting himself as an example, after he took over from Baba Otu Mohammed after he (Otu) had just been named Africa's best right-winger but was disappointing in a few games.

No creativity in the current midfield, we can't hold the ball playing against a team like Egypt, even in home match!
I'd take the gamble on Mikel.

Who dem go take na

Very unprofessional of an ex eagles star. Instead of saying don't call Mikel. Why not give us options you think can fit into that role. Typical Nigerian... Don't use this but to profer solution na wahala.

I smell jealousy from an afonje

Mikel has been sh!t for a long time

how old is mikell

dde3

He has not watch Nigeria game

He is right Mikel is now Old and weak

Who dey Hell is Mikel Ooooh D hand ball player

i just dey laugh at this yeye man....Who among the current overrated Nigerian midfielders is match to mikel (except NDIDI)? who? shut da fok up. Without Mikel in the starting XI Nigerian team will look useless in a very competitive game. This is not friendly match, its a competition.

Abegi Mikel is going --who in the Midfield is currently better than Mikel

the only midfielder i see in that squad is.ndidi karo is still upcoming..buh that midfield seriously Lacks creativity..
wish we had someone like bernado Silva or David silva

so who would pay match bonuses and travel fees when FG dissapoints?

Very true oooo, since mikel joined Middlesbrough have u seen their stats , it's been very bad ... Let's scout for fresher and younger players

Mikel is the cord that holds Nigeria's Midfield.

His composure,experience, positional discipline, crisp passes,creativity and hold up play will come handy in the Afcon.

For now,we need him badly in the Team.

The likes of Nwakali have a long way to go.

I stand with Rohr.

He can suggest better players if he has any in mind.

OGA that will be dangerous for our team ooo that midfield is still lacking,u are just saying this because we are yet to meet strong rival. Competition is different from friendly match,we need Mikel now than before pls dont dare we need him at least to start the match.

na by force,why not stake high for ur self and win big for ur self?ole

Sharaaaap!!
