Joebie:
Going by where has played most. That’s not conclusive.

Now u are contradicting ur earlier stance. Do u want him or not? U kinda rigmarole bro. U just dey dribble me about

Joebie:
Rohr wen don speak Deutsche no fit convince them, na Pinnick? Only Uduokhai is a possibility, but the boy is undecided for now.

I dont care how they do it, they just have to do it like they did Ademola's. Akpoguma especially has been somewhat a personanongrata for Germany, and sadly for hoffeinhem too. Dude is playing second fiddle to newly acquired Ghanaman Kasim Nuhu though the Nuhu guy is crocked now, Akpoguma is still finding it tough to get reasonable minutes under his belt. Getting him wont be that hard anymore but the qstn is, "is he good enough?"

Joebie:
These days wingers can play at either side.

That doesnt mean they dont have primary wings. Onyekuru and SiMoses will give u more, playing from the left than the right. Kalu will give u better crosses using his right foot than his left. Danjuma's primary position is the left wing.

Joebie:
Of course, we should prioritize our approaches based on our present need. Some of these players need time and the picture will become clearer for them.

I already said it last week, I wont be surprised if we miss out on the boy. I was pro Danjuma thinking he was a right winger till forgiveness woke me up to the reality. Dude is a left winger, same position we have an avalanche of personels. Unless he leaves Brugge for a bigger club like Monaco, Valencia, Lyon, Marseille, Napoli, fiorentina etc, otherwise Rohr aint looking his way because, for now he aint as good as what we have already. Infact he hasn't done what Bonaventure did for Brugge in his first season, month, week and day in the jupiler league. If Bonaventure was a FB, I doubt we would be singing Danjuma's praises as we doing now.

Joebie:
He is open to the idea but clearly implies he prefers Netherlands by far. To seriously think about it means, he won’t just jump on it after a call up to Nigeria. Whereas, with Netherlands, he will be three in a heartbeat. Very honest chap.

They gave him the break, the platform to get to where he is today, so u shouldn't expect anything less, otherwise, he is an ingrate. Only a stupid boy points to his father's house with the left finger for it is absolutely stupid to bite the finger that fed/feeds u. We should stop being greedy

forgiveness:
None is not correct. Lukuman Haruna played consistently with big clubs like Monaco, Dynamo Kyiv, and Anzi Makhachkala. Don't forget he was in South Africa 2010 world cup. He was ignored in his early years.

Dele Ajiboye is still around. Won the local league with Plateau United. In a sane society, he should be in the national team ahead of Ezemwa.

Rabiu Ibrahim could have made it but due to heart failure he went down though he went to the biggest or one of the biggest clubs in all the leagues he went to. PSV, Sporting Lisbon, Celtic, Gent etc He is currently in Slovakia league and his team is leading his team.

Do u know what durability and relevance mean? The clubs they signed for never knew they were over aged. They were victims of the players' fraudulent act, just as the Eagles were once or twice their victims too. But since no one can cheat nature, age caught up with them, hence dey cudnt stand the test of time neither were they relevant in the so called big teams they played for . Haruna was a bench warmer for a moribund Monaco side that ended up getting relegated. He was so poor at Kiev that when he was sent out on loan, he was rejected and sent back to Kiev. He was released finally at a supposed age of 22 abi 23. Rabiu was never at any time a rational deal by the various clubs he scammed

charlesemeka85:
New Club Brugge star Arnaut Danjuma has now left the door open to play for the Super Eagles after he first said he only wanted to play for Holland.

The 21-year-old forward has now said he would “seriously consider” an Eagles call-up.

“I am proud of my origin. Africans are happier, open, they look less at the negative and get the best out of the situation. I also have that in me,” he said in an interview published by Voetbal International.

“Who knows, maybe I’ll play for Nigeria, I would seriously think about it if they called me up, but it would be a pity because I’d rather play for the Dutch national team. ”

Danjuma also revealed in the interview that Premier League champions Manchester City were interested in signing before he opted to join Club Brugge.

Danjuma, Bonaventure Dennis Listed For Champions League

“Manchester City were interested,” according to the winger who plays alongside Nigerian forward Bonaventure Dennis at the Belgian champions.

“There was also interest from other clubs from England, France and Germany, but I deliberately opted for Club (Brugge), it was just right.

“I have simply followed my feelings.”

He is set to make his UEFA Champions League debut at home against Borussia Dortmund tomorrow night.

Dude has always wanted to repp Nigeria and here he is obviously begging for a call up, but trust the clueless one nah. He is gonna mess up our chances with this boy. For those of u who avnt seen him in action bfor, plz do well to see Brugge versus Dortmund tmrw.

edi287:
09 set was even worse. I remember Westerhof saying they should be drafted in to SE before they fizzle out because most were at least 21.

That's a lie bro 09 has given us some meaningful players for the national team

Omeruo, Onazi, Kayode are all 09 while not even one person made it from 07

Icon4s:
What did they look like when they had: Drogba, Kalou, Jervinho, Yaya-Toure, Tiote, Kolo-Toure, Zokora, Ebuoe and co?

We all know what made that golden generation come short. The Ivory coast is more organised now bro

I can only imagine what Ivory Coast's attacking front will look like with their two wing wizards Zaha on the left and Pepe on the right in the Afcon. They dont really have that definite striker but their wings are their identity and promises lots of goals, could even be the deadliest in the Afcon. I wish Rohr could tap into our wing abilities too

Afcon 2019 go sweet oo, I hope Morocco hosts sha

Icon4s:
Totally uncalled for bro.

I just dey watch them. The earlier they resolve this issue, the better for both parties, otherwise...well the disappointments would be better imagined

Icon4s:
Meaning dude remained 17 for 10 years.

Hahahahahahahahaha u dun see am nah. Little wonder he was as slow as snail on the pitch, the few times we felled for his tricks and invited him to the Super Eagles

Bro dis one wey Enyimba dey share ban like akara give their best players, how they won take beat Rayon Sport nah? Me im not understanding oo

Icon4s:
If say them take those boys near MRI machine that year, na from far the thing for begin shout ''over age, over age, over age!!''

Lol wicked man. Did u know Haruna made that team at the fifth time of calling?

tbaba1234:
Igbekeme will be in a la liga club in no time if he keeps up his performances. There is certainly space in the eagles for him.

Somebody who called Igbekeme a winger forgetting he covered up for an obvious reason, and u are taking him seriously? Igbekeme who is rated the best CM currently in the whole segunda

Unlimited22:
Just saw a rerun of our 2007 U17 victory.
RIP Yemi Tella.

Nigeria's worst U17 set up ever in the history of Nigerian football. Grandfathers playing against kids 20 years younger

Danielnino00:
If Tomori want to progress further, he should cut his ties with Chelsea.. Same thing should b done by Aina, and Tammy..
Chelsea isn't a club that encourage the development of youth players.. no matter how much potential you show,they will still ship you out on loan..

Nice one bro but that doesn't guarantee success, remember Solanke is still crap and Tammy was worse in Swansea. If u are good, u are good. See Davies, Gray, Gomez, Arnord etc

Truidstar:
Good replacements. But has Phillip billing Anyanwu indicated interest in us or rather does he know we exist as a country?

He doesn't know Nigeria exists yet he Twitted a good will message to the super eagles when they left for Russia? Surprisedly, he snubbed Denmark in the tweet.

charlesemeka85:
yea the boy have really improved and similar to liverpool's gomez. learnt he is interested to dump england for 9ja.


players that i would love to be replaced in the super eagles are:
john ogu- hapoel beer sheva
ogenyi onazi-trabzonspor
brian idowu-locomotive moscow
kenneth omeruo-leganes
odion ighalo-changchun yatai
joel obi-chievo verona

players to replace them:
phillip billing anyanwu- huddlesfield
james igbekeme- real zaragoza
timori fikayo- derby county
kevin akpoguma- hoffenheim(he is not rated by the germans so i believe with time we will get him)
success- watford
ejaria- glasgow ranger

Emmyboy, take Omeruo out of that list. I like Akpoguma too but I don't think he is better than Omeruo now. Both of them are needed

tbaba1234:
Yea, Fikayo has really improved. The problem is that we now have many defense options.

The bolded isnt entirely true, I say this because, some of the so called options aint up to scratch, plus we need staunch competitions in order to have some kinda substitutions by eliminations at the long run. This would make our defense stronger. I aint sold on Ajayi just yet, and as much as I love Omeruo and Awaziem, they should be seeing minutes of actions in their respective club sides because their bench role aint good for their form and growth neither is it for the national team.

Tomori deserves a look in, also the duo of Akpoguma and Uduokhai should still be tapped behind closed doors as the NFF did Ademola. I am all for an improved team. Deji Behruether and Ikouwem Utin deserve to be scrutinized too, because Idowu is an insult to the national team.

I have been following Fikayo Tomori this season, that boy has really improved. Nothing different between him and Joe Gomez. This is a player that should, in my opinion, get a look in, instead of an unattached Iorfa


Talking about Joe Gomez, wow that boy and Alex Arnord have really made me fall in love with them this season. Those two are classes despite their young age. Dejan Lovren will have to sit or leave when he is back from injury because, to me, Gomez aint no bench material.

Nobody talks about Luke Amos, Keanan Bennets, Lucas Nmecha, Thiago Ilori anymore. What happened? The boys dun dey hibernate?

dreamwords:
so nsukka dialect which i find difficult to understand is igbo, but ukwuani dialect which is almost the same as onitsha dialect is not igbo to you abi,, bros go and sit down your argument is invalid,, you need to argue base on fact and reality on ground ..btw which primary school did you attend self,i need to flog your head master ,

His brother already told him he doesn't know the history of his own tribe Urhobo, and u still taking him seriously? A man who doesn't know his history is trynna be a champion in another man's history that only tells u his motives or that he argues out of ignorance. U ought to kno ur story first bfor u tell another man's


If a typical Ezza or Nsuka even Abakaliki iman starts speaking their okpudala, bro, forget it, u are gone because u wudnt know wen dey are making plans to behead u right before ur very eyes with ur own igbo language but their deepest dialect. But nothing wey any man from Anioma abi Asaba go speak wey I no go understand atleast 80%. Go to their official thread on nairaland here, u go even think say na owerri and Onitsha mixed together that u are reading until u are told that its ika.

Joebie:
But isn’t that the truth about life. When you think you have arrived, in a little while u find out u still have a long way to go.

My dear, I'm bereft of words. To me, the only player that let his U17 success and the ensuing hypes get into his head, hence feeling he has arrived, sorry to say this though, is my brother, KC Nwakali because kid has been boastful lately while others kept working in silence. I saw his post the other day about him not going to miss Eagles match again after that ATM and our failure in Russia, I was just SMH. To him, he is ripe for the super eagles already even though he hasn't done any reasonable thing in Europe. I thought it was a one off, till he started granting interviews about the Eagles and his chances with the team, then I was convinced Dude is on course to destroy his career.

Chukwueze and Kingsley iMichael have been making inroads in their respective clubs while Osimhen's undoing has been his injury worries. About Nwakali, bro no excuses

safarigirl:
shey na this guy collect Moses shirt?

Unapologetically, he did


Good to also see Ojo getting minutes of action as a left footed RW. He came on in the 78th minute today as Reims had a drab game against their opponent.

Ademola lookman should leave Everton. They are destroying that boy's career

maidaboi:
Imoh ezekiel starts

I guess he had a poor game that he was subbed off in the 58th minute.

MOTM performance from the super eagles' rave of the moment, Samuel Kalu

Kalu scores
