Schemerkhiz: This is an old video and with this you should have an idea of what she can bring to that Central Midfield with experience from England 🏴, Portugal 🇵🇹, Spain 🇪🇸, Greece 🇬🇷 and currently Italy 🇮🇹.. , but if you want to see what Elisha can offer then you have to Watch Napoli games regularly as she’s a starter and play 90minutes as well.
She has previously played for Tottenham Hotspur from their Youth team to the main team, Charlton Athletic, Valadares Gaia, Valencia, Sporting Huelva and OFI.
I'll add the following to your list: a. Suliat Abideen (24) - Fenerbache, Turkiye b. Elisha Sulola (25) - Napoli, Italy c. Joy Igbokwe (20??) - Nasarawa babes, Nigeria
Schemerkhiz: We have some number of DM’s but not solid yet and with Ayinde over 30 already and after 2️⃣ ACL and some nagging injuries it’s time to sort for another capable young lads but they ain’t there yet..
She's 23 now and will no longer be available for the U23s. Also, she has only 1 cap (a friendly) which means she is still fully available for Nigeria. IF a serious coach is hired for the SF, she can begin her switch to Nigeria.
Schemerkhiz: Don’t know what’s the problem with Nicole Payne and Invitations to the SuperFalcons right now… As for Ayo Oke am not counting her in as she’s following the US path currently a regular with their U23 and a cap with the Senior team already.
Were we really have a problem is the Left Position..
Sorry, but even at her previous club, she was played as a CB and was very good at it. With the plethora of young, up and coming DMs available, it would make sense to have her be one of our center-backs, especially in a key and strategic area where we are clearly thin on credible options.
And Imuran is NOT a defender. Currently at Aston Villa (and at London Lionesses and Stade de Reims, before that), she was played and continues to play as a left sided midfielder/winger - and she has been very good at it! Its just silly playing her as a left back. Nicole Payne and Ayo Oke (Denver Summit) can hold the fort as LB.
As for your girl Maureen, I really don't see her as SF material, as she has repeatedly failed to prove herself good enough.
Schemerkhiz: Ucheibe remains a DM will only come in occasionally when the need arises..
Remember Ayinde is aging and we can only rely on Abiodun as there isn’t any one yet we can pick on.
Do you have a proper Left Back apart from Plumptre who can play there?? Imuran is more of a back up in that position.
As for Maureen I can assure you she will certainly get the opportunity and hopefully not a late one.
AndSunGorilla: Akinzo, how ubdey watch this thing? The afr site is blocked for me. Meanwhile, if you saw the Ghana Brazil highlight, I thought Brazil's GK got away with murder in their game. She made a foul outside the 18 and only got a yellow card. I could be wrong though. Anyways, I don't like to wail about refereeing.
The foul on our #14 should have been reviewed for a potential red card on the N. Korean girl. That was studs on shin. The dumb coach should have requested for a review
Not only shocking, but extremely sad. This was a player you held in high esteem. Truth is I Never really thought she was good enough for the Falcons, and her having to play her football in Liberia (of all places) proves the point. My concern for her now is that she may face a significant ban for willingly disrupting a CAF CL match, which may end her football career at any level, including coaching. Sad!
Schemerkhiz: A goalkeeper that was once tagged the future of the Nigeria SuperFalcons goalkeeping position..
Nigerian football needs a hard reset. Drain the swamp! Thats the only fix.
Schemerkhiz: When you talk they will come at you that you hate a particular player or it’s because your favorite player wasn’t called up, whereas they don’t even know the story behind the silly call ups…
In due time the SuperFalcons will start struggling like the SuperEagles to qualify for tournaments.
Brilliantly stated!!! Absolutely nothing more to add. Nigerian football is moribund - and we have been overtaken by other smaller nations and have been left behind.
This is what happens when imbeciles are allowed to take control - it’s us the fans that are left to deal with the ruins. The bastardization of Nigerian football is complete.
Nigeria U17, Golden Eaglets failed to qualify for AFCON U17 as they crashed out of WAFU B Qualifiers & in this light, they won't qualify for U17 World Cup.
Super Eagles no World Cup ❌️ Super Falcons no World Cup ❌️ U20 no AFCON & World Cup ❌️ U17 no AFCON & World Cup ❌️ Super Eagles' AFCONQ shaking. ⚠️
When they complain about local coaches, local talents, NFF and the corruption of Nigerian Journalist, many of you people without intergrity will come online and start dragging nonsense.
We are a very corrupt, myopic and proud people who dont like the truth.
Look at what Randy Waldrum left behind after the 2023/24 World Cup and Olympics, because of corruption, they brought in Madugu to ruin everything… All because they won the 2024 WAFCON from what Randy built down, thinking Madugu have something upstairs 🙄😂😂
Anyway the pain of the 2027 World Cup miss will surely come hunting next year Now they have started with Austin Eguavoen and Danjuma deceiving themselves, what happens to simply appointing a standard coach and letting him or her build the team again instead of this interim nonsense… I’m tired 😢
We have so many mediocre, corrupt and very greedy people in football space, from coaches to administrators, to the said journalist who only think of collecting peanuts to promote mediocrity and stupidity.
This is why I am so mad at anyone that comes for Eric chelle, because you all see the serious work the man and his team puts in trying to improve our national team. a national team that was on its knees, depleted and lacking confidence and conviction to win matches, playing absolute thrash before he came, with the local coaches at the helm and we were on jeopardy.
Eric Chelle has created a proper team identity, created healthy competition for positions and improved the team a lot but yet some of you miserable journalist will be attacking him for your stupid corrupt NFF & NSC bosses. Sabotaging national interest for your personal interest.... such madness.
Today look at us, a nation with so much footballing history and potential is now mopping the floor for lesser opponents.
Our local league is absolutely laughable, poorly funded teams that cant compete for anything in Africa for decades.
Women football, the special one we always praised with pride is now in serious decline, underage football is absolutely zero, even the men's national team is struggling due to poor administrative management that cant fightfor the teams welfare in CAF when we go to lay important matches...
You'll see african teams taking the super eagles to farms to play matches and gain advantages while we have an administrative body that can't demand the right thing. NFF failed with south africa taking us to bloemfontein, failed with Guinea bissau taking us to that farm, and failed with the petition against Dr Congo.
But pride will not let you see the probelm, it is rather Eric Chelle you all speak about, because he is collecting a salary you all are angry about.
We are failing as a nation, in all ramifications, we are struggling for basics because we have failed to build anything for so many years, no new stadiums, no new sporting facilities, no proper funding, no merit for selection of coaches and players, tribalism, nepotism, all very stupid things have derailed this nation and the worst now is the football we love so much going down the drain.
It is just too bad...
I dont want to hear anything about local coaches again, I dont even want to hear anything about local talents again. We dont have any of the both of them. U17 and U20 left in the hands for these coaches have been shit for so long, not even producing any player capable of competing in the senior national team, hence why we lack replacements in the national team.
If not for Eric chelle and his relentless scouting, I wonder what will become of super eagles by now.
Until we get serious and reduce corruption in our system drastically... then we are not ready and will continue to rely on foreign players and ideas to move forward.
What a miserbale footballing nation we have become, underdogs that dont qualify for anything anymore.
Corruption can really destroy a nation and this is another proof of it.
If una like, continue doing this until we completely become a forgotten history and people in world football.
The club has a legitimate concern regarding the welfare of the player, especially when she is under contract with them and they are paying her remunerations - billion dollar club or no. Her primary obligation (quid pro quo) is to fulfill her contract with them and help them meet their main objectives - sell stadium seats and win trophies.
For your information, most of serious and forward-looking national teams do pay medical bills or offer welfare packages to their players when injured while on national assignments. That's the professional thing to do. Unlike the buffons and illiterates we have running our football, who know absolutely nothing about football management and player welfare. This has nothing to do with being dramatic. It is a very legitimate concern.
And it is disappointing to suggest not being concerned about the player when that was indeed the main focus!
BascoVanVeli: How many national teams pay medical bills? Don't be dramatic. Instead of worrying about the player, u are telling me about a billion dollar club.
Meanwhile… Nigeria is still ‘celebrating’ it win against a Comoros side that is ranked in the lower quartile of world football.
While Morocco is planning ahead, Nigeria and it’s illiterate football leaders are still farting around, waiting till the last minute and will miss the opportunity to do something meaningful this next FIFA window next month.
Schemerkhiz: The France women's team will continue its preparation for the 2027 World Cup with two new friendly matches:
🇻🇪 November 27: France – Venezuela (42nd FIFA) in Nancy.
🇲🇦 December 5: France – Morocco (64th FIFA) in Sochaux.
A third match is also scheduled for December 1 against an opponent yet to be announced.
Three final matches before the start of the 2027 Nations League in February.
Sad, but not surprised that it seems to be a fractured ankle, as that lady landed hard on Rash’s foot. What’s even more sad is the fact that she just came back from injury and seemed to be hitting stride with PSG. That might end up being up a season ending injury for her.
Wishing her a complete and speedy recovery ❤️🩹
Schemerkhiz: Not good news for Nigeria SuperFalcons captain Rasheedat Ajibade Sources say her MRI came back showing a fracture around her ankle. Could be out for a while. Wishing her very quick recovery
But who suffers the most because of her playing for Nigeria?
Who will be saddled with her medical bills? Who suffers 'lose of use' the most, considering the different club obligations - Champions league, French Cup and French Championnat commitments? Who will continue to pay her remunerations, in spite of the fact that she will be on a recovery bed and not out there on the field playing for the club due to injury?
Certainly, not a National team named Nigeria. That's why PSG will be pissed and deservedly so.
BascoVanVeli: So PSG don't know injuries are part football? Or will they be the first team to have a player injured? Osimhen got injured with us and we didn't hear a word from gala.
Another young lady I would like to see in the mix is Ashanti Akpan of Newcastle, formerly of Chelsea ladies. Her profile is really growing and she is such a cultured and intelligent DM
Schemerkhiz: There are better midfield options that need to be tried out not all this ones they want to sell to Low budget leagues abroad..
The attacking midfielders that have shown potentials are both seniors in College, except the coaches want to go the way Randy did with Onyi Echegini or wait for them to go Pro Next Season..
She started because she was being 'marketed'. For me, her overall performance in the game was sub-par, and she is NOT ready for the SF, at this point in time. Suliat was much more confident on the ball and showed better poise. It will be a miscarriage of justice and a clear evidence of malfeasance IF she (Suliat) does not start and Igbokwe does in the second game tomorrow.
Schemerkhiz: The U20 World Cup would have showed us a lot about Joy and what she can offer…
But right now she’s not ready for the SuperFalcons… na Danjuma power he take dey there.
Suliat performance was okay for now with the few minutes she got and hopefully she will get more game time and prove that she’s ready… At least we have got a Central Midfielder in her and should thrive well with a DM like Abiodun, Ucheibe or Ayinde beside her.
Which Justine? The one that was in the bathroom during halftime? Msheeww! That dude didn't do jack from a tactical and strategic standpoint - the key ladies who helped in that space were Rash Ajibade, Plumptre, Oshoala and Echegini. If anything, credit should go to them! Continue to deceive yourself!
AndSunGorilla: Somebody that Justine defeated, coming from 2 goals down sef.
This might be an effort to torpedo the coming of the new coach. If we lose on aggregate to Comoros, then there will be no justifiable reason to hire a new coach, as we will be out of the Olympics. These people are real gangster and are out to completely destroy Nigerian football.
SolaFide: It is very clear from the call-ups. It is clear AE as technical adviser has overstayed his welcome. Danjuma has always been like this, perhaps they have forgotten that female football is evolving pretty fast in Africa. What if Comoros end up getting a win or 2 draws.
For Pete's sake, this is not the way to integrate young players into the senior national team.
A total of 14 players trained on Monday evening as Nigeria’s Super Falcons commenced preparations for Friday’s 2028 Olympics Women’s Football Tournament qualifying match against the senior women national team of Comoros 🇰🇲. Both teams will clash again in the return at the same Remo Stars Stadium on Tuesday evening.
Interim Head Coach Augustine Eguavoen has released Oluwakemi Adegbuyi and Favour Nkwocha (who featured for the Falconets at the FIFA U20 Women’s World Cup in Poland) back to the U17 women’s team, Flamingos. The Flamingos are scheduled to fly out of Nigeria on Wednesday for the FIFA U17 Women’s World Cup finals taking place in Morocco.
Defender Ashleigh Plumptre has been excused due to injury (sprain and ligament), and SL Benfica duo of Oluwatosin Demehin and Flourish Sabastine will not be coming due to resident permit pursuits.
Asisat Oshoala pleaded to be excused, Eguavoen has call up Belarus-based former U20 team forward Blessing Okpe.
Michelle Alozie Christy Ucheibe Jennifer Echegini Rasheedat Ajibade Gift Monday.
The key question is WHEN We've been hearing about Maureen for the past 5 years, yet nothing. She hasn't improved herself, even when she had the opportunity to play in the French Ligue 1, but strangely opted to turn it down. I feel like we've been promised a 7 course meal all these years, but all we have been served is soup!
Schemerkhiz: Just be ready to cry blood when MU gets her call up! Do remember me this👍
So, two of the U20 players who were dropped because they allegedly gave the Polish embassy authorities false information during their interview and were rightfully denied visas for the U20 tourney have been 'rewarded' with call ups to the Super Falcons - Joy Igbokwe and Faridat Abdulwahab.
On this Falcons list for the Comorros double header, at least 3 Nasarawa Babes players are on the invite list (Joy Igbokwe, Faridat Abdulwahab and Fatimoh Solaty). This is exactly the level of cronyism that happened the last time Christopher Danjuma was in charge of the Super Falcons. Undeserving players making the list and of course, the outcome in ALL those instances was DNQ.
The level of incompetence is mind-blowing - I wouldn't be shocked if Comorros dispatches our Falcons due to the two incompetent clowns (Eguavoen and Danjuma) running their crocked schemes.
ekehopp2: New look Falcons loading. Glory Ogbonna get tight contact for NFF 😁🤣😂😅
Osohala and Uchenna Kanu are 2 most senior players here by first cap right?
Was actually going to say I liked the love shown to her by the Nigerian coaches and players after the game. Its imperative to show that she is loved and respected by her own people, considering the fact that she could be one for the future...
AndSunGorilla: The English press might see this now and start victimising the girl say she happy to lose to Nigeria.
