Okereke MOTM.

If he improves his shootings, then he is joining a bigger club come summer

Okereke is deadlier than Abrahram

Ebuehi no dey gree for this match oo. see run and cross oo

andrewbaba44:
You know the matter, me na korrect coach nah

But ekong should be pairing nkoulou because he is better than Craig Cathcart

Let's hope that would be the case in our subsequent matches

andrewbaba44:
3rd seria A goal

So happy for him after a wasteful first half

He is a good forward, but he needs to work on his shootings and decision making. I love his speed, pressing, work rate, guile and power.

Ebuehi dun blind Pellegrini

andrewbaba44:
Omo you sure say this nkolou never collect ekong shirt, because if we are to be sincere he is better than ekong

I hope ekong will start along side him on their next game in place of Cathcart

If na you be coach, you go start Ekong ahead of Nkoulou?

Okereke sodomises Mourinho

andrewbaba44:

Lol you this ekuke shnay! You know wetin be soro m chia?

Venezia has been the better team and they are proving it. I wish they were clinical enough, they would have blown this Roma side away long time ago

Venezia is winning this match

elyte89:
I am sure Charles no go listen ,he go still serve us DT rumors..I am only waiting for his allegiance rumor concerning Curtis Jones linked with Nigerian roots

Baba fit say him wan play 4 us like dt

Emeka's updates na soro m chia, in other words, na real cruise

For the future, I wish Nigeria could bring along a certain Osaze Aghatise. That kid is an elite talent and a great finisher for his age

elyte89:
I don't even knw d meaning of both sides self..cos wetin dem teach us for biology,na one part of d brain we dey use think, not 2sides

No one should be begged, we can only reach out to the players, then, if the said player is interested, he knows the needful, which is applying for a change of allegiance and notifying the NFF to do theirs too. Thats is all. Until a player applies for a change of allegiance which is the genesis of the whole process after a contact from NFF, he should never be reported here abeg

andrewbaba44:
Okereke na fine player ooo

Dude is giving roma defenders a hard time

Strong and pacy but shooting like a headless fowl. If I were the coach, I would yank him off for going for a personal glory from an impossible angle instead of playing in his strike partner for what would have been an easy goal.

Now they are paying for those poor decisions and misses as they now trail Roma

elyte89:
Definitely... It has to do with d players coming out clean to represent us wout holding back

Meanwhile I believe eida one of oliseh or eze might follow suit

You are alone on that last paragraph ooo

charlesemeka85:
Galatasaray and fenebahche interested in nwakaeme

I wish him the best, but he should concentrate on his club career.

Henceforth, Lukman's case should be a bench mark or reference point to how long it actually takes to clear a player from England to play for Nigeria. Let's say he made the official application for change of allegiance last week, if he becomes available for our AFCON squad in January, then, all what we have been reading about clearing players from England being a difficult lengthy task has been hoax.

charlesemeka85:
just heard chelsea odoi turned down an england call up, insisting on playing for ghana

good one from pikin wey get sense

The bolded is way off the mark. Odoi is still committed to the English course, but he feels he has grown bigger than the youth stage(U21) where he gets called up instead of the main team. By the way, this is about the 3rd time he is turning down a call up from the U21 team.

Like I always say here, believe anything said by that wannabe Britico at your own peril. So e never even reach one week wey Lukman officially accepted to play for Nigeria, but that Komekn guy has been here feeding the gullible ones in here with lies since last year!!

England Under 20 World Cup Hero Set To Switch Allegiance To Nigeria, After Turning Down Three Official Approaches From Them

Tom Fenton


England youth standout Ademola Lookman is hoping to switch his international allegiance to Nigeria, as prospects of an England call-up diminishes.

The Leicester City youngster, who previously played for the likes of Charlton, Everton and RB Leipzig, was born in the UK, but he is eligible to play for Nigeria on account of his parents.

Lookman represented England at U19, U20 and U21 level, with the undisputed highlight of his time in the junior ranks being 2017's U-20 World Cup triumph.

The 24-year-old starred in the tournament alongside the likes of Dominic Calvert-Lewin and Fikayo Tomori, netting three goals en-route to the final.

Things have been more turbulent at club level since then, although the 20/21 campaign was something of a breakthrough for Lookman, as he made 34 Premier League appearances for Fulham in their ultimately fateful attempt to avoid relegation.

However, that campaign was enough to convince Leicester City to take a chance on the pacey winger, who has already scored twice for his new club this season.

With Gareth Southgate currently spoilt for choice when it comes to high-qualify wingers and forwards, even if Lookman does continue to impress under Brendan Rodgers, a call-up to England's senior squad is still highly unlikely.

Just yesterday we saw the likes of Jadon Sancho, Emile Smith-Rowe and Mason Greenwood all missing out on his latest 23-man World Cup qualifier squad, which once again highlights the depth England have in attack.

Previously, the wide-man turned down three official approaches from the Nigeria Football Federation (NFF) to represent the African nation instead.

Speaking in 2020, Lookman stated: "I've not changed my mind [on wanting to represent England] but I'm open, and it's good to have different opportunities."

One year on, the player appears to have had a change of heart. BBC Sport reports that Lookman has officially began the process to switch allegiances to Nigeria, where opportunities to play regular international football will be more readily available.

It could turn out to be a lengthy process, as Lookman's appearances for England's junior sides complicate matters somewhat - meaning he will have to wait a bit longer to make his debut for the Super Eagles.

NFF chief scout Tunde Adelakun told the BBC: "We are aware of Lookman's desire to play for us and I have spoken to him as well. However, there is a process to it."

"After this process, then comes the consideration and decision of the head coach [Rohr] on whether or when he deems it fit to get him involved."

chrisooblog:
but according to our resident Southgate Lookman told him personally he had already made a request to switch

How you guys believe those cheap lies told by that boy really amaze me. Na because he claims hold a British passport? Dude claims to know and dine with every damne player, scout, coach in England and you guys believe such person isnt trying so hard to impress in here? Nothing that guy said or boasted of has ever come out true, and whenever his lies get detected he embarks on a self imposed exile only to make a return when he notices that the storm has settled.

richard eromigbe

Na so bro. That boy was at a time SE's Gattuso. How he fizzled out very fast is so baffling

What really happened to this guy? I loved him back then.

AndSunGorilla:
I agree.with you on this one, make I no lie. The man whose Old Trafford dream ended in infamy.

You agree, you no gree omo e o concern me. I say things they way they are.

Rohr and Pinnick are a big disgrace

Utonwanne:
There must be 'underground sh*ts' between Rohr and Amaju.

It is obvious

AndSunGorilla:
Maazi go Ivoryland abeg. Is Cornet a defender? He has been used as a twin striker/midfielder in Burnley. Meanwhile when the Crystal Palace guy Guehi go join CIV?

Do not worry about us, instead worry about your clueless criminal coach who leaves out his best players for some below average players all the time.

Awoniyi is Nigeria's most inform striker in Europe but the efulefu called Rohr chose an ABF from the middle east instead

Happy birthday to you - SoloNnachi nwanne m nwoke

Imagine this guy at LB, Singo at RB, Boly and Baily as center backs against an ABF striker like Ighalo choi!

Cornet........Boly.......Baily.........Singo

Tolulopefinest:
E don land

This man is a filthy clueless b.s.t

Until a good player says he wasn't able to play for Nigeria because he was asked to pay, then all these you guys are saying are rubbish. These players dropping these unsubstantiated accusations have something in common, they none of them is up to scratch; from Sariki to whoever. They all wanna play even though they know that the people already there are better, so they try to force their ways through instead of doing their thing on the pitch to get noticed by the coach. Shit would look better and more real if someone said he was dropped for a lower player because the lower player paid why he didn't. Who Sariki and Nwakaeme wan replace? I don't like Rohr, but in this case I'm gonna spare him some slacks unlike in Keshi's case where Keshi disrupted an already gelled striking pair of Emenike and Ideye to take Uchebo to the world cup unmeritedly. That was a pure scam because in all indications, Ideye was better suited.

Napoleon55:
We will always settle that on d field of play

Right now bro, Senegal will easily sodomise us if we out on a bout with them. Them better pass us well.

andrewbaba44:
I no need see the moniker before I know say na you

Senegal get players sha

Guy these people have array of qaulity professional youngsters coming through. Do you know the number of stars the last U20 worldcup gave them? Whereas Pinnick and Aigbogun wasted our chances for their pockets. Have you heard of Tottenham's young midfield sensation Pope Mata Sarr of Mertz and Marseille's Bamba Dieng? I don't even wanna talk about Lopy of Reims and Niane the deadly young striker from Mertz abi make I begin reason about Badji of Brest? Chai

I can even go further to Pape Ndiaga Yade and even Yamine Gueye.

All these boys are below 22years

Senegal has a better present and future than Nigeria, all thanks to Amaju Pinnick for neglecting our youth system.
