Oga dont be deceived Sadiq Umar is the most skilled Nigeria forward with close resemblance to Kanu that can score and assist.... You have not watched or follow him

Taiwo is equally good too

Why is he not playing for a club in the top tier of the football league system?

Kriss216:

You're right.

He chose finished Ighalo and rusty Musa over these young bloods.

Man brought okoye and some others; the man wasn’t that bad.

Emperormartin:

Musa will still make the team even under Eguaveon. In fact lemme burst your bubble; musa will go to the World Cup if Nigeria qualifies.

See eh there’s sth you guys don’t understand about Musa; he’s not there on merit; he’s representing the northern region whose numbers in the National team are becoming slimmer on each new day…

You're right...

Same was the case with Garuba lawal until he retired, and the crazy thing was that lawal was making the fist 11 starting line up, despite the fact that there was nothing special about him.

The North will always want a representative in the super eagles.

This I have seen.

justosee:

His valuation is way high and moreover Almeria have declined to sell

humility33:

Higher than what top clubs can afford? A club that competes in the second tier can afford to keep a player from his dream move?

That taiwo awoniyi i no trust am he is too handsome 4 afcon football why not go for sadiq or deseiers of feyanood . If nigeria see quater final 4 afcon make i kw wetin cause am. I see cameroun' home advantage' or algeria 'most inform team' winning afcon . Eguavean should make sure he cashout bigtime because this might be his last chance to collect bribe.

If you say Taiwo is too handsome, what would you say about Joe Aribo??

Kriss216:

You're right.

He chose finished Ighalo and rusty Musa over these young bloods.

Lol, you actually think it was Rohr that called back Ighalo? You don't know that Pinnick influences call-ups?

robosky02, Nigeria will not go for players plying their trade abroad if the league is well structured and organized. Most northern African teams make use of local league materials and are doing well. Not so here. Imagine the league in limbo for over five months and you expect stars from local front.
League organisers should be more active and ensure the league starts in time to make it more competitive and produce worthy champions that can stand on their own at continental and global showpiece.
Commencing league in December doesn't make sense!

That Musa no longer merits a national call-up doesn't mean he didn't get into the Super Eagles on merit though. Even Alex Iwobi doesn't merit a call-up yet he's there.

Our defence is suspect. Very few of them in that department are good. Our midfield is weak. A playing pattern need to be established within a short time. Above all, the team needs to have a winning mentality.
Keshi did it and I hope Eguavoen has something to deliver.

Kriss216:

You're right.

He chose finished Ighalo and rusty Musa over these young bloods.

Ighalo was not re-invited by Rohr but by Pinnick and the sports minister

paulolee:

so u believe dt rhor makes dt decision on player callups n selection?? why do u think dt NFF had issues with keshi for fielding local based players in south African even though he was grinding results?
dey owed him, thinking he would fail so dey can sack him but he proved Dm wrong n won the AFCON with dt same "local league" material sunday mba scoring d winning goal??
not jus Nigeria, the football association in other countries are solely responsible for calling up players, why do u think dt pinnick do visit this players in dier club side? to jus snap pics or Wetin??
our wahala b say NFF dey involve bribe inside, the new coach knows all these n cnt stop it..

Keshi himself collected bribes bro. His major undoing was the invitation of Okechukwu Gabriel to the national team who was then playing for an academy club in Abuja. He even gave him number 10 shirt.

you are right, quota system in Nigeria football .

According to Eguavoen, Union Berlin’s Taiwo Awoniyi and Watford’s Emmanuel Dennis are in line to replace Osimhen if the former Lille star does not make a full recovery before the upcoming Africa Cup of Nations, AFCON, in Cameroon next year."


Why would coach Eguavoen even consider Osimhen--who has history of injury?
Wrong start and may not end well for coach Eguavoen.

Awoniyi should be given the slot. He’s one of the hottest strikers in Europe right now.

Lol. U are too truthful.

asin eh, our current hot players

TOPCRUISE:
Any super eagles coach that thinks the way Nigerians think will never win any tournament.

Any coach that cannot think outside the box and does not use his initiative but instead submit to sentiments and admit to players Nigerians want for any match will not go far.

You have said nothing..

Does Awoniyi and Dennis..

Not merit to replace Osihmen?

Or is calling Ighalo back..

Thinking outside the box?

And how was Keshi thinking?

When he won AFCON?

So you are wiser than Eguavon on soccer matters now? Your auditorship no do you?

Garba Lawal? He wasn't an outstanding player but damn. Please, how old are you?

Coach be changing system now@ 5 minutes to 12... na waah o

This was my fear from the beginning, I hope the system is not completely distorted

What do u expect him to do since osimhen may not be available, they may not have envisaged that injury will take osimhen out since he is the best forward for Nigeria presently.

optimusprime2:

This was my fear from the beginning, I hope the system is not completely distorted

Was there a system in place under Rohr?

Supposing Rohr was still coach, can you guess his first 11 at AFCON 2022?

We know he would take the error-prone Ekong along, and the lazy Balogun. We know he would take Musa along, and Ighalo.

It is not like Rohr would win AFCON for us. So, why are you people worried that we are changing coaches at the last minute?

Since we are never going to win the AFCON, Eguaveon can enjoy some liberty. Who knows, we may even win the AFCON.

But certainly, we would never win the AFCON with Rohr as coach.

Na only fine fine boys I wan dey see for AFCON, so that if we lose match, I go console myself with all the hailing wey women dey hail my guys.

Awoniyi for front, Semi Ajayi for defense, then Okoye go come finish them for post.

Beautiful men na who I wan dey see now.

I'm really happy Nigeria is beginning to have so many world class talents to choose from.

Garba Lawal was there on merit.

Go back and watch Atlanta 96 and Nig vs Spain in 98. Lawal is always helping in the defense

We perfectly understand this

For your info, Emmanuel Dennis from Adamawa, is a northerner. Zaidu Sanusi is sure of a place and he is a northerner. Moses Simon is a northerner.
