Full name, Elohor Godswil Ekpolo.
And what influence did VicMo’s parent have I. His decision to play for Nigeria? Seems u one of those who think Vicmo's parents are dead. |

I am so happy for this info At the bolded is where I hail Edo patents. Guy trust me whenever a European born Nigerian pops up and the player is Edo by origin, I don't lose sleep, but same can't be said when he is igbo or Yoruba. Just negodu Ogbonna, Onuoha, Ibe, Anyanwu, Ikechi Anya, Obinze Cole et al |

Joebie: Why u dey bring tribe into the matter na? What has that got to do with Akpoguma? U call it a tribal while I call it my personal observation d e to track records. Check out from Osaze, Vicmo down to the very least. Did u know Ekpolor openly declared for Nigeria even as the captain of the great La masia, Osede was a strong part of Real Madrid and Spain youth system when he stated how green his blood was, look at Ebuehi, look at Ehizibue. Before u start una usually infantile name calling, I am a staunch igbo through and through, buh I give to Edo parents in diaspora. |

tbaba1234: He was waiting for Holland then.
He is 24 now. Reality has set in. I think he is a better player than Dumfries. And he didn't pledge his allegiance recently. He actually did after seeing the success of Ebuehi who happens to be a fellow Edo boy, and also share same agent with. Like i once said, Edo boys easily get swayed to pick Nigeria ahead of their counties of birth unlike Igbo and Yoruba guys. How old is akpoguma yet he ain't giving up on his unfeasible German dreams. Don't be surprised to see uduokhai make his eagles debut b4 December |

Joebie: Getting game time is the most important thing for him now. That, plus exposure he would sure get, playing for Almeria. He made the right choice choosing the Segunda ahead of that Turkish second division team, Bursaspor |
Sports › Re: "The Super Eagles Thread: The Road To AFCON 2027, 2028 And 2030 World Cup by ChrisKels: 10:48am On Aug 22, 2019 |
komekn: When l compared both of them to Dominic Iorfa who was then playing for England and Wolves as a first team first choice player.
I was called bias and accused of being his agent over hyping him, he denied Nigeria.
These two German boys have done exactly what Tammy has done. But we still keep begging them.
In my opinion even Odubanjo who is now coming back to form after injury is better than them. Indeed IMO technically he is better than Iorfa. However, for the physicality of the English game, Aerial dominance and pace Iorfa has the advantage , in addition Iorfa is also CB.
But for the position of RB with Nigeria in consideration our technical style of play my view is that Odubanjo may have may have the advantage. But open to debate but he would be the best option seemingly. U have this strong proclivity to make incoherent travesties and still want to sale it as facts. What has Odubajo and Iorfa got to contend with Uduokhai and Jordan? Do they play in the same positions? Amidst all these qualities u used to describe Iorfa, dude in still in the abyss of the championship while the ones u so berate play in the top leagues. I guess the premier league scouts are too blind to notice what a classy player he is. Beats my imagination how one would create farcies and still dwell in them. Man we know better |

Joebie: This Best XI takes into consideration their culminative performance else Maja will clearly be ahead of Okereke. Ojo and Eduok have been more influential in the wings consistently. I’m taking note of Dennis and Michael.

Humility017: if we are able to get this guy and eberechi eze into our midfield set up....
then our midfield woes will be over....
we can now concentrate on the defense and goal keeping department...
heard Rohr wanna call up Felix agu... I am so happy, pray he gets his passport before then.... and hopefully with additional one or two CB inclusion we're good to go.
hopefully we get Tomori or Udokhai then that's solved...we can start prepare for the world cup in Qatar....
prior then maduka, alampasu,uzoho...one amongst them will come good and lay hold on the number 1 shirt Forget that Mbaise boy(Ebere Eze) of mine for now, he is too inconsistent for a look in. |

Joebie: SE HOPEFULS BEST XI (ROUND 2)
REASONS:
CF David Okereke keeps his CF spot in this week's Best XI due to his unmatched 4 goals tally for a CF so far this season, although failing to make an impact in the last round of matches in both the Belgian top flight and in Europe. However, with a little bit of consistency from Josh Maja, who came from the bench to score for Bordeaux on Saturday, Okereke's position in the team will come under threat next week especially considering he plays in a lower rated league compared to the French Ligue 1, and has failed to make an impact after 3 Champions League qualification matches.
ADVANCED MIDFIELD Sheyi Ojo takes the RW/RM spot after bagging a goal and two assists against Midtjylland in Europa League qualification. Sheyi has been on fire in both the Scottish Premiership and in Europe this season with a handful of goals and assists often operating from the left. Similarly, Samuel Eduok has been in fine form in Croatia. Featuring as a CF over the weekend, he got another assist to his name adding to his prevous tally of 3 goals and 2 assists after 4 matches in the 1.HNL. He makes this week's team at the expense of Ebere Eze.
Eze did not come to party in QPR's latest matches. After starting the season with an impressive goal in the first round, and bagging an MOTM award in the second round, Eze's impact have not been felt lately, as his club has suffered two consecutive losses within the last 7 days.
Abduljalil Ajagun is the undisputed best Nigerian player playing as an AM so far this season. He followed his scintillating performance penultimate weekend with another beautiful assist last Saturday. If his imposing performances in the Jupiler league so far are anything to go by, Ajagun deserves a call up to the Super Eagles.
CM Ovie Ejaria is arguably the best CM in the Championship after featuring in just 2 from a total of 4 rounds of matches. After an impressive start for Reading in his first game this season in the 3rd round, he was named to the Whoscored Championship Team of the week. He followed it up with another Whoscord MOTM recognition scoring away in West Bromwich just this evening. Ejaria knocks off Joe Aribo, who is no longer eligible to make the team of SE Hopefuls as the latter has been called up by Gernot Rohr for the Ukraine friendly billed for September.
DM Due to lack of good competition in the DM position, Anderson Esiti maintains his place in the team. He gave a good account of himself playing against Ajax twice in UEFA Champions league qualification. Coming closely, is QPR's Luke Amos who has enjoyed lots of game time for QPR this term. Azubuike Okechukwu made his Istanbul BB debut in the Super Lig last Saturday, but was subbed off after just 46 minutes in their away loss to Yeni Malatyaspor.
FULL-BACKS Felix Agu has been a standout performer in Bundesliga II. So far, he has been utilized by Osnabrueck as a RFB and RWB, and has not disappointed in either role. He helped his club demolish Darmstadt on Monday outclassing Mandela Egbo who coincidentally played RB for the visitors. Felix beat Mandela in all stats except in the number of successful tackles. Felix finished with a WhoScored rating of 7.71 as opposed to Egbo's 5.92. Both players clocked 90mins for their respective sides.
Left Back, Chima Okoroji maintains his position as best Left back after clocking another 90 minutes for Jahn Ragensburg in their 1-0 away loss to Greater Furerth. He finished with a WhoScored Rating of 7.10. Okoroji has played every single minute this season in the German second-tier.
CENTER-BACKS Fikayo Tomori is named to the team after coming from Chelsea's bench in their super cup loss to Liverpool. Royal Antwerp's Junior Pius loses his place from last week's team, as he has not returned from injury. Tosin Adarabioyo has not made Blackburn's match day squad in the last two rounds as he was not passed fit for both encounters. Minnesota United Center-back, Ike Opara makes the team. He has been named to the official MLS Team of the Week 4 times within the past two months. Opara was named alongside Nedum Onuoha in a 3-man defense, in the latest Team of the Week (Week 24) released Monday. Opara is still eligible to represent Nigeria as he has only been capped once by the USMNT in a friendly last year.
GK Blank
What's your take? Good job guy, but why didn't u give Dennis Bonaventure a mention, he was immense in their last match where Okereke blew hot and cold. Another gud mention should be Kingsley Michael who also did well for Bologna in a cup game. Plz what's up with Deji Behruether's career? |

I stated that I take days to respond to mails of such a nature, you now expect me to do something out of character.
Once again, you don't know me, so, you cannot determine how I am to respond and I must not respond in a manner you, or anybody else approves of. When Icon79 started posting to me, how many times did I respond? Do you know how we later communicated?

safarigirl: Yes, even that, I couldn't say....aside the fact when I saw it, I wasn't even in a position to post anything.
You must think I know how to respond to everything because I post a lot here. I'm a very awkward person when someone shows me unexpected love like that, cuz I start overthinking stuff and wondering why? How?
You don't know me personally, so, that you assume everybody is supposed to respond a certain way to certain acts, shows you don't understand that people are different.
I'm very awkward, I'm sorry I did not respond the way you and some others expected me to respond, but it gives you no right to start bullying Earthquake and calling him cheap. You are attacking him because he is not behaving the way you and many like you would expect, which is once again, an erroneous thought.
Sometimes, I receive emails of such nature and it takes me days to respond because I don't know how to respond.
Na me dem draw for, na me e dey follow talk, you don't even know if I have decided to contact him via email, but you have automatically assumed I ignored him because I'm not showing fake internet love for all of you to watch and enjoy.
You could have even contacted him personally to give your words of advice, but what is the fun in that, when you can publicly put him down for likes and quotes? The post that ensued after the dedication wouldn't av been, if the bolded had taken place. U trying too hard to justify his action. Please who be all of u wey dey watch and enjoy?
