Omilana tends to exude more confidence

Deltamani:
And she’s U20 First Choice Goalkeeper for that matter, Should have done better… I wonder the kind of experience she gained at the last U20 WAFU CUP

Samai Phiri (Zambian) also on the Pitt team.
Very good #9

Not at all concerned about the experience part. The fact that she came straight from college and into consideration as a starter for PSG is massive.
She will gain experience playing and training daily with some of the football greats as you listed.

Just watching this game, it’s amazing how much she has grown. Impressive.

Deltamani:
Arguably the quickest Fullback we have right now, but she still lack experience and will definitely get better at PSG playing with the likes of Seasoned Lieke Martens, Katoto, Baltimore, Jakie Groenen, Almieda, Sakina Karchaoui and against Lyon, Paris Fc, Montpellier Fc and also in the UEFA Women’s Champions League.

Both have had several opportunities to make the cut and have not been able to. There are many up and coming players in the US, UK and possibly Nigeria, who would add more value.
Time to move on.

Deltamani:
Okay, I specifically picked the both of them because of their Versatility as they can play any position in the Defense just like Veteran Faith Ikidi Michael..

Zogg & Okeke

Deltamani:
Be Specific, which two are you talking about?

Sorry, but neither of these two are good enough.
There are others that need to be focused on.

Deltamani:
Center Back
Osinachi Ohale
Ashleigh Plumptre
Blessing Demehin
*** Onyi Zogg or Chidinma Okeke at CB/FB


Right Back
Michelle Alozie
Nicole Payne

Left Back
Rofiat Imuran

She used to be a sub at Houston Dash but now is a starter at right back.

The WWC helped her become one of the top 10 rightbacks in the world, thanks to Randy's vision of recognizing her value and playing her in that position.

Massive kudos to her and the likes of Ashleigh and Toni for embracing and excelling at new roles the coach asked them to play... unlike our infamous 'Ms. Thang', who still believes she is better than someone else (not naming names...), but is incapable of being versatile.

Deltamani:
If Alozie can play Right back for Nigeria at the Highest level (World Cup) then she can as well Play the same position for her Clubside.. Versatility.!

Here is a cost savings proposal to the useless NFF...

Sanusi Mohammed (Sec. Gen.) makes $10k/mo (paid in US dollars)
Randy Waldrum makes $10k/mo.

Get rid of Sanusi, who does absolutely nothing at all, but be a cog in the wheel of progress and retain Randy, who is actually adding value to the team.

That's $10k / month in savings for the NFF, which could be used to help pay off the monies owed to the multitude of coaches being owed bonuses over the years.

...but of course, Gusau is too much of an im.becile. to do that, especially since Sanusi is a fellow northerner.
Morons running the show in the NFF.

lovewins:
Please bring up where I or any other person for that matter said that. I even remember clearly stating here he earns $10k

AkinDS:
Looks like she’s a left footed player.
Would want to see her play for Valencia before making a call about her possibly being considered for SF.

Deltamani:
Valencia CF Femenino Signed Nigeria Born Elisha Sulola until June 30, 2024, plus another optional season.

Elisha is a versatile midfielder who can play on the wing and inside. She is a Central Midfielder with a lot of offensive projection and on a defensive level her physique makes her cover a lot of space; she knows how to win defensive duels and dominates the passing game…

June 07, 2001 (22 years)
NATIONALITY : England 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿/ Nigeria 🇳🇬



Previously, she played for Tottenham, Charlton Athletic Football Club, Valadares Gaia W(Portugal)

Elisha Sulola: "I am very excited and happy to be here. Valencia CF is a historic club and the city is beautiful. I am looking forward to working hard and helping the team."

Her name is Taiwo TEWOGBOLA Afolabi (not Tegbogbola)

Tessyy1701:
Taiwo Tegbogbola Afolabi is the new Delta Queens captain...

Taiwo the skippo💪

On the contrary, the facts are very relevant.
1. Fact. She started both games because 2 of the choice center-backs were injured. (Wo)Manpower shortage in the CB position during the Turkey friendlies. Coach had no choice but to field her. Otherwise, she would have been on the bench, like she was in the 3 friendlies (pre-Turkey) and the FIFA WWC (post-Turkey).
2. Fact. Unclear about your reference to the coach and her being forced on him. Not sure where that came from.
3. Fact. Agree the only thing that would change within the next 4 years is her still being on the team as a player. Ain't gon happen. You can take that the bank! All that talk about 7 WWCs is her stroking her own ego.

She really needs to go get her coaching certs - she has learnt alot over her 30+ yrs of playing football. She needs to make herself useful and start a post playing career as a coach, if she has any hope of attending the next WWC.

BascoVanVeli:
Did she start the 2 matches yes or no? All that other stuff is irrelevant. If u don't want to use a player u won't use her. This is a player that the coach always praises but u want me to believe she was forced on him?

I definitely cleared up my point in a previous response I made to u. Like I said then, a lot can change in 4 years.

Yes, since her U17 days and I am still not impressed.
Nnadozie was a backup to her.
I’m sorry, but I don’t see the value she can add. Would rather invest in some of the younger keepers like Omilana or the Anderline girl.

Deltamani:
AkinDS if I may ask did you watch Okeke from the U17 down to the U20 and any of her recent matches??

Go into the NWFL list of goalkeepers right now and will pick Okeke among the top3 best Nigeria have in the League..

Christy Ohaeriaku, Obia Christiana, Anderline Mgechi are the few goalkeepers in the league we can pick out right now..

Omilana came back from U17 World Cup and couldn’t get back her spot back at Club level till season ended. She couldn’t make the last U20 WAFU Squad too, I jus hope she gets it right as most persons here see her as one for the future..

Both Ohale and Plumptre were nursing injuries at the time (vs Haiti and N. Zealand). It therefore made sense for her to play. Consequently, during the WWC proper, she was a bench warmer.

Not particularly bothered by her comments because she wouldn’t make the team. It is absolutely ridiculous to even suggest she would, considering that he plethora of players Nigeria has and will have by the next WC.

BascoVanVeli:
There is a big difference between playing till 39 and playing in 6 world cups. That record is an undeniable fact.

About Onome's selection, stop the CAP. The same Waldrum that called out the NFF for trying to select his players. How did they then force Onome on him? Someone that started the last 2 friendlies before the world cup and scored a goal, which kind of talk is this na?

Seriously? You’re kidding, right?

BascoVanVeli:
I don't see why not. This is history we are talking about. Her taking up one spot won't make or break us.

Of the 14 players you listed, only Nicole Payne, Chinyere Kalu, Oyenezide, Rinsola, Evelyn and Mbadi are worth spending any time on.
The others are either too old or simple not good enough, as they have underwhelmed.
That U20 keeper during the recent WAFU cup, Jumoke Alani, Ajakaiye and Bello should be the focus of our Next gen SF.

I really don’t know what you continually see in that Okeke keeper. For me, she has proven to be very poor, lacking in the basic fundamentals of goalkeeping.

Debbie Abiodun is from Ibadan, Oyo State.
Born and raised.
So…

Curtisaxel10:
It's Ucheibe lol😂😂😂

Or Abiodun

2-0
This is looking like a very long afternoon for China.

lovewins:
Only those not watching the game can reach this conclusion. You mean a goal that came from a school boy error that Nigeria isn't likely to make, and a weak short that Chiamaka Wil save?

What significant thing has England done since then?

So could have the vicious shin stump by Evelyn Viens on Ohale which had multiple compound fracture written all over it and was a no call (it seems all the people in the VAR room were on a bathroom break when the incident happened).
The Canadian got up and completed the match as if nothing happened. Clearly, there was no ill-intent from Abiodun, unlike the Canadians stump which was intentional.

PDPGuy:
Got it. TBF, her tackle on the Canadian player is one that could have ruled out that player for a year or more

And where did you get this information from?
Because, to the best of my knowledge, FIFA has yet to announce the list of eligible players for the match

Princezibk:
Abiodun not still playing tomorrow while Alozie Demehin and Oshoala risk further suspension due to former yellow card warnings … I pray our coach gets his tactics and selections right while Goodluck follow the girls 🤲

See how SA just collapsed. From 2-0 to 2-2.
Hope they don't go and lose this game.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zMxc3zOfoRE

The rules state it’s a one game suspension unless the disciplinary committee decides to tack on extra punishment.
Right now, she should be eligible for the Ireland game

isan:
Probably after group stage

Kai!
See as Deltamani put me on blast
Na wah na 😂😂

Deltamani:
CONGRATULATIONS 👏🎇👍

WOMAN OF THE MATCH.

OHALE OSINACHI

SHE GAVE INN HER ALL. WE ARE PROUD OF YOU LEGEND🇳🇬♥️🦅

Later someone here will say she always balloon the ball forward

Melchie Dumonay is an explosive player. Very good player. Just moved to Lyon this summer.
ex-Teammate of Demehin and Imuran at Stade Reims

M7even:
No one here is talking about Haiti's 🇭🇹 performance against England. Yeah, they lost to England by a retaken penalty but my God, their attack was really what we needed badly against Canada. Football is a teamwork, and not an assiat oshoala work. But the team needs her to click and be explosive as the number 6 of Haiti was. I'm sure Haiti will not go far in this word cup, but certainly, I recon they got a good team and that anything is possible going foward

Sorry about that
My bad, bro.

ThePresenceWtf:
I take it that you didn't look at who I was replying to, so I'll just overlook this and chuck it up as a simple mistake.

Like the saying goes...
Opinions are like buttholes - everyone has one! (regardless of whether or not they are intelligent).

And yes, I did watch all Nigeria's WAFCON matches, multiple times for that matter, thank you very much!

yinkeys:
Okobi would be in our top 3 best players at WAFCON
Did you watch The WAFCON
Has not really to do with age

Re: Nigeria Female National Teams' Thread by AkinDS: 5:35am On Jul 21
FIFA and their implicit RACISM.
The girl that stumped on Ohale should have been redcarded. That stump was so late, it came in yesterday.
But because she was white, not even a yellow card.

I knew there was a racist intent when there was NO African on the VAR team. And I was proven right.
CAF must insist on having an African on the VAR team whenever an African team plays.
This is not even fully anymore.

Racist bastards!


Your intellectual dishonesty is very nauseating!! and one more thing, try not being obtuse!
