The only obvious thing is that Tammy Abraham is a foreigner, in the real essence of it, and when the time comes, he will be reminded of his true place in England. You can bandy about a piece of paper all you want, but it won't give you a place in the end.

SmartyPants:


So you know more about being British that the one who actually spent all 21 years of this life as a citizen there? After having gone to school as a Englishman, played in academies as an Englishman, played in England youth teams as an Englishman, currently playing in the Chelsea first team as an Englishman, you believe that Tammy Abraham would be oblivious to a racism that you as a Nigerian are able to see from your thousands of miles away?

All the evidence, my friend, is entirely to the contrary.

Black foreigners in numbers are accepted and assimilated easily in British society. Take a look at their parliament! Take a look at their medical system! Take a look at the premier league sports teams!

What matters to the British is your legal status, and your competence to perform your duty. There is absolutely no evidence of this foreigner complex you speak of.

Factgist:
Sure.. Nigeria didnt invest in him, so how come they want to reap where they did not sow?

SmartyPants:



What's your evidence for that sir?

setobaba:
you have chosen wisely my bro. I will deny this country called Nigeria for a piece coconut.


Foolish qouters pls beware

hisexcellency34:
The same England people that called you ugly Monkey when you missed Penalty against Liverpool

odomanis:


What can be more valuable than the sperm and egg invested by his Nigerian parents that produced him ?

Crofton:





Don't mind our people, when the guy was struggling to find form and stability, we didn't even call him to play in a friendly or any youth match.
Now that he has scored 7 goals in 8 games, we are running after him like flies .



Rubbish, I never expected him to choose Nigeria.

TempleHouse:

[b]You can check the UKBA website (United Kingdom Border Agency ) for all this information pls.
[/b]I'm also a living example,to be modest, but the real truth is that English people are very sentimental about football and are passionate for white indigene adorning 3 lions shirts.
You're not a real indigene if you're not Whites, and thus the reason they worship David Beckham and Wayne Rooney as their superstar to the detriment of other Black Players like Rio Ferdinand and Patrick Cole etc.
Imagine if Kanu Nwakwo talented 11 year old son wish to play for England in the future as a black indigene born and raised in Britain.
He will be jeered and had Banana thrown at him and I'm sure Kanu Nwakwo will never approved any of his children to play for other country apart from Nigeria. .
You're a true indigene if you're White only.
That is the reality in practice.

tonyimadu:
there is an equally long list of players nigeria used and dumped. Please make some research.
Wilson Oruma
James Obiora
Sunday MBA
And it goes on and on

safarigirl:

And you know this from spending many years in Britain, that is why Tammy and Sterling are still racially attacked?

Tokziby:


When I say use and dump. I meant they will earn few caps and once they drop in form that's the end of their international career cos they've got a lot of players waiting in the wings.

TempleHouse:

Far from the truth, my brother !
Some white pundits have said on live SKY TV programme that Tammy Abraham will be on the back of the queue if he choose to play for England because he will queue behind Harry Kane.
And that Tammy profile is better served in Nigeria but he has a choice to make as a "naturalised citizen"
Remember how he was booed and racially abused for missing penalty at Chelsea few weeks ago.
The same white supporters don't recognised a black player was born in Britain as long as you have a black skin.
Nwobi will flourish in Nigeria team while Tammy will be used and dump once he lost his form in English shirt.

Simplecity:
Who in his right senses will pick Nigeria over England

Tokziby:
Another Gabriel Agbolahor in the making. Gbolahor was way better than Tammy yet he was used and dumped, Dele Ali is already done representing England, Late Ugo Ehiogu got the same treatment. John Fashanu still regret till date for dumping Nigeria. Ameobi changed his decision when it was too late. And host of others. The English team has never retained any player for longer period except when they are extremely good like the likes of Beckham, Lampard, Scholes, Shearer, Rooney, Lineker, neville, etc. Tammy and Fikayo will be used and dumped as usual.

Goodluck, enjoy ur short term career at the International level.

SmartyPants:


@ bolded that's not what I asked! I simply asked you for evidence that what you call a foreigner will never be accepted as an indigene even after attaining citizenship. Please, where is the evidence? Can you cite any examples of people this has happened to before? Very i

You are simply speculating! If Kanu Nwankwo's son wants to play they will thro bananas at him....based on what? When have English fans ever thrown bananas at their own players??

Did they throw Bananas at Dele Alli? Did they not idolize him?

What do you mean by they idolized Wayne Rooney and David Beckham to the detriment of Rio Ferdinand and Patrick Cole? Who is Patrick Cole in the first place? If you don't know Ashley Cole, then you seem not to be well informed!

And is it not normal to idolize attackers over defenders? Were Ashley Cole and Rio Ferdinand not given the same hype that John Terry and Gary Neville were? Maybe Rio Ferdinand was even given the greatest hype of all, as at the time Man Utd paid 30 million pound for him, that was the world record fee for a defender!

majamajic:
we no go early

we for go when Chelsea dey loan him up and down

Keane go use bench wound am , English don't joke with their real natives

Factgist:

TempleHouse:

It's quite obvious you don't understand and trying to prove your argument which defy logic and reality.
That you don't know that Dele Alli has been thrown Banana twice is a clear fact you're clueless about this narration.
I'm sure many people will fault your argument as you' seems ignorant to know what indigene mean to the white people by mixing all together with the record fee and irrelevant issue.
Unfortunately , you're not equipped to understand the argument and there is no need to argue with someone who is happy to remain in their state of ignorance.

TSRC:

What about the thousands of Nigerian doctors trained in Nigeria that are now working in England?

Who would pay the tax payers back for the resources we wasted on their education that England and America is benefiting from?

byrron:


Like the way they benched Ashley Cole to the point where he became one of the most capped English player despite being a black man abi?

You guy's should stop being more catholic than the pope.

You contributed nothing to his development and all of a sudden you now know what's best for him when you have no clue of the story behind his glory?
