You must’ve missed the last 15 pages of the thread. The dude does not even have Nigerian passport and must drop his Austrian passport in order to get a Nigerian one per Austrian rules. There may be exceptions however, but he isn’t eligible to represent us as of yet.
It wasn't a question sir. There's no question mark there. I put question marks at the end of my questions.

It was a statement.

Nice line up.

Onuachu has been given another life line. Hope he gels and make Nigerians to love him again.

Can't wait to see what the likes of Zaidu, Onyeka are bringing to the table likewise Dessers.

It took Aribo less than 45 minutes to win the hearts of Nigerians, Idowu did same only to find out he was a fraud.

Wishing all of them the very best and hopefully they make us all smile at the end of the day.

You are still not making sense and I know the reason of all this epistle

Where did I said we should call up iorfa ? I said if he does well in the championship why can’t he be called like others that have done well there ? You just want to attack me or you no just get sense ,read well next time

I said if iorfa can do well in the championship why can’t he be called but here you are saying I am dragging us backward ,I doubt you even know me on this thread for you to think I will rant over a player ,I am one of the few who is always okay with rohr list

Get sense before you try to attack Andrew next time
If I ever quote you for nairaland again, make I know wetin go cause am. Sometimes you behave as though you're a kid. Everyone keeps telling you. Can't you make your submissions without insulting? If no one has ever told you, you have insecurity issues, but then I'm sure a lot of people have told you.

It's a different thing to insult my submission, it's a different thing to insult my persona.

I won't tow the cursing lane with you, I'm more civil than that.

Have a nice day

You are just tryin to diss komekn for no reason because he likes iorfa

When Balogun Dey Wigan Dem call am so if iorfa is playing well in the championship why can’t they call him ? Even adaribioyo many of you even want him called in the championship but iorfa na no

Balogun wey dem no call when e Dey chop bench for Brighton na em you Dey call main stay ,be deceiving your self ,Rohr even had to prefer semi and ekong

Can you compare Turkish division 2 to England or Spain ? How many players did they call from there compared to the championship,abi no be same championship dem Dey call etebo from but because person name na iorfa he doesn’t stand a chance

I guess ajayi was a main stay in the team while being called from the championship

Talk ball and remove sentiment oga

You are not making any single sense
Stop intentionally twisting the conversation to suit you.

Ajayi debuted for us in the championship when we were low on options. Our team was filled with carpenters.

Now, not so much. We all cried here when Ekong was going to championship because we don't want second division player in the squad.

In the team, we're not as short on options as we are when Ajayi debuted. There are respected war generals, you don't push them out away immediately you see a better player. You also don't expect Omeruo to be getting call ups from second division while we have Jordan and Felix, not discounting Kevin.

Again, Ekong, Balogun, Omeruo have not played in second division all their lives. They have played in first divisions, in fact, we didn't have any player in second division last season. All our defenders played top flight.

We are not as short on options as we were when Ajayi debuted, why should we call Dom?
Wasn't it here last season we all were excited and praying for West Brom to get promoted to EPL? Because we want our players to be playing in the first division.
Wasn't it here we all believed Omeruo would leave Leganes and go to a first even struggling division club?
Wasn't it here we were complaining about Ekong going to play in the championship?


All of a sudden, you want us to call up a player who has never seen the light of the day inside any top division. If he's so good, and considering his English passport, he should get himself a move.

Y'all should drop dragging us backwards. We can not be praying for our players to get promoted to first division, and then because it suits you guys, you're asking us to call up one guy comfortable playing in the second division. angry angry angry angry angry

Well You're right but not completely.

...But come on man, Onuachu isn't as slow as you've just painted him to be. We all saw what he did against Egypt. And the goal he scored (with his foot)

Let's not forget that the guy is in red hot form. And he keeps proving that even in training. As in ~On binu lowo~ And a player in such a blistering condition should never be underestimated.

Desser is a much respected striker both in this forum... He's faster and "better" but that lanky dude has been outshining him constantly for a while now both at clubside and now in the national team. The guy more than deserves to start ahead of the others bro
. Think that out.
I went to check Onuachu out on YouTube. His team has an official channel there. And I can tell you that 4 of his non penalty goals this season were headed.

In fact, the 2 goals he scored in their 3 - 1 win over Mechelen were headed goals.

I think yes, people who tag him cross and nod player got it right

Your line up has one glaring problem. Kalu and Chukwueze are inverted wingers. Inverted wingers do not do well at whipping crosses since they would have to do that with their weaker foot. Onuachu can only thrive in a formation that guarantees slower build up and plenty quality high crosses into the box. Those wingers can't give him that.

Kalu and Chukwueze are made for fast counterattacking football with plenty of short passes and freedom to make individual darting runs. We saw that against Ukraine. Starting them alongside a slow clumsy Onuachu will be a clear and comedic mismatch. Like wearing a suit and tie over traditional wrapper.
Just one question, por favor. Do you watch him at Genk?

Live session with Kevin is done.

He seemed enthusiastic about everything. It's actually genuine enthusiasm. I can tell you for free he didn't fake it
Says he grew up watching Jay Jay, and he watched Obafemi. Jay played for Frankfurt and Martins played for Wolfsburg. He said he proceeded to following them up at Bolton and Newcastle respectively.

He said he did eat Pounded Yam and pepper soup while he were young, but it wasn't often as Dad was hardly around.

He doesn't know any Nigerian musician(i'm not surprised because Germany isn't our place grin), but lately he's noticed Burna because he does UK shows. He mentioned another musician who he thought was a Nigerian but actually isn't.

He relished back when he were a 16yo and visited Nigeria and that he still has family here in Nigeria.

And he's an Urhobo from Delta state(i always thought he were Igbo).

Says he understands the language(didn't say which), but he can't speak it.

And to the person who said his English isn't sound. That's not true. His English is very good, for a German.

It's for CT users.

Apparently people have been mailing them about the drop in questions in the CT. And she herself noticed that the number of questions rated had dropped. So she set out to monitor it herself.

She said she monitored for a week and by the turn of each day, there usually are hundreds of unanswered questions and that justifies why they dropped the numbers. Also went to drop advise and asked us for our opinion on some things like that, more like a "what do you think we can do to improve" kind of question

For those who couldn't watch


By the way, only Dele did his initiation song in a local language, even though he no use pass 45 seconds or something. He called it a freestyle. Dele was shy, and wouldn't want to climb the stage, until Ekong initiated a "Pasu!" chant, then he reluctantly climbed up

Ejuke song a Nigerian song. I don't know the song, but it was certainly a Nigerian one.

One of them song Aye, by Davido. I think those were the only 3 who sang Nigerian song.

Dessers was the first of them who wasn't booed(play play booeing o). He didn't even take his phone, and he sung a song which was a classic. Most of the guys sung it along him.


Ekong(or was it Omeruo?), his pidgin was shockingly good. I wouldn't be surprised if it were Omeruo, but the voice came from where they were sitted. Ekong, Balogun and Omeruo.....it sure as hell isn't Balogun grin

All in all, I enjoyed the video. Musa was mischievous, so fun a man.

Ekong(i'm sure this time) was shouting "Yi hakuri" at one of the new guys, who I'm guessing is Hausa, cos Musa was trolling him too. Musa was actually heavily laughing at him and I think he was bantering him in Hausa.

E dey surprise me sey he was a FB. Man has gotten Nigerianised so much. No wonder he's a captain. If you watch the video, you'd see why I say, Ekong is going nowhere anytime soon.

Omeruo was the cameraman, and while Musa was just catching his own fun, Ekong was more like the organizer, kept asking, "time still dey for more?"

Now I see why when he was accused of being a bad influence by one of the NFFs, his teammates stood for him.

All young relatively inexperienced goalies.

Do we thrust them into the deep end or use the likes of Akpeyi till they mature?

Uzoho is just returning and may need time.
I think we trust them.

Francis should be back just in time for the qualifiers. And with Maduka already coming in against Brazil, he knows the country has got his back. That's enough confidence for him.

I have no problems with Akpeyi in particular, but like they say, "na one time pesin dey die". It's not until they're 25 before we start testing them. We can also be the source of exposure for them.
