TheSuperNerd:
But when we called up Kelechi Nwakali and Victor Osimhen after their U-17 exploits just as a way of fast-tracking them, you heard the nonsense cries didn't you? Why must the foreign borns be given this special treatment you suggest without anyone willing to cry out while we cry out when trying to encourage our special underage talents who shone at the age grades? Osimhen's call was bashed and condemned left, right and center when Rohr called him up just to begin integration of the lad because he saw he was special. Now we are reaping the benefits.

If Osimhen was foreign born, would his call have been bashed? And if as a foreign born, playing so well for Lille now, what would be the story today? That we should have capped him then, but now we have to contend with England or France for his allegiance. Thanks goodness that is not the case.




Look Sir Royalty. Nigeria have been approaching some of these lads and many of them are non-committal.
These lads should stop making it seem like it is the countries making the decisions for them. It is also their decisions and their lives. Let those that want to play for England or Nigeria or whatever country declare it from the onset and stick to it and not wait till their careers probably hit the heights of Pele where they now start singing the tune of England calling them up first.


Are you saying that Nigeria is not deserving of a player doing well in Manchester Utd or Manchester City or Arsenal or Chelsea? So na only QPR players we want abi? Only West Brom or Rotherham players are good enough for the Super Eagles and would choose the Super Eagles.

If that is the case, then we don't want such snake-like personalities near our GWG. Players who would only choose Nigeria if they are only at a not-so-high level career wise.
My question to them is this... Would they maintain same choice if they are getting the business done at a high level and making the headlines?


I think we should sort out where their allegiance lie from the onset first of all and stop giving ourselves more opportunities to get slapped in the face as seen in the case of Tomori and Abraham.
See Tosin Adarabioyo now... Famzing the GWG jersey and trying to get Nigeria's attention with his funny antics. Would he be doing so if he was still balling at Man City??

We need the really committed ones. Most of them are just considering us only because their careers aren't so great and they feel the Super Eagles is the place to be when you are at Ipswich town while England is the place to be when at Chelsea.

Is Nigeria not worthy of a Chelsea player? That is what we should address abeg and not inviting every dick and harry.

Earthquake1:
Dude it was a secondary invite due to an injury, and he's not going to get any minutes

Chill

raumdeuter:
I spoke to a friend yesterday who is into Nigerian sport and he started criticizing Abraham and Tomori


Look at Liverpool, football output of Salah and Mane are close I don't know their salary but I think Salah will be earning significantly more.

Salah has the Arab market on lockdown. Liverpool can go to Saudi, UAE etc and Salahs name will fill the stadium buy merchandize, That alone will make Salah earn more. Same with Spurs Son with the Asian market

Does Senegal offer the same benefit to Mane? How much Mane merchandize will Senegalese buy?

I won't be shocked if all dem Jordan Henderson, Oxlade and the British guys are earning same with Mane sef.

I now asked him if his brother or his son has the same choice what will he advice they pick, after 3 seconds he said he will tell them to pick England

I come ask am so why are you upset Abraham and Tomori did the same thing you would want your son to do? Are they not someone's son or Brother

After I take care of my purse first and retire, I will become Ambassador to Nigeria offering help. The way Dessailly is doing in Ghana after settling his own career

charlesemeka85:
That's just the truth. Tammy and fik haven't done enough to deserve a chance in the English team and I foresee them don't having a long career in the team as well.

The plan is just to cap and hold onto them that's all. All the same I wish them the best.

tbaba1234:
Otigba rejected an invite to play for Hungary waiting for Nigeria. It is not as if we had quality defenders at that time. Egwuekwe and co... He was playing regularly in Holland. At least, he could have been tested in a friendly.

edi287:
Did anyone post about this earlier?? This is so sad!! Dude was just 32...#ripissacpromise.

komekn:
I CRY FOR MY COUNTRY.

We have made people HOPELESS then deprived of the basics of life they have become DEPRAVED look at changing nationally and religion.

Is Nigeria that bad , l am confused.

charlesemeka85:
I see nothing wrong in approaching these kids and it's inevitable that we will never have them all. Reaching out to them doesn't hinder the progression of our league and player from the home front.

Other countries are tapping to the practice whereas fortifying their various teams so I see no reason why we can't do same.

I'm against begging any player to play for us but fully in support of reaching out to them and get those who are willing to dorn the national colors and as well fortify the team.


Lets forget about pride and sentiment. France planned having only white and indigenious French kids in from their youth set up which was backed by ex man utd defender blac but to their surprise the most talented kids in majority of French academies are sons and daughters of immigrants most especially from Africa.

If racist Europeans can hide their hate of the black race by fighting to have the best professionals out of our race in various sectors in their country in a bid to improve and do better I see no reason we should be filled with pride when reaching out to those we know can improve us.


No matter how we mourn and cry Tammy and fik are gone but that won't stop the future integration of euro born kids who re willing to feature for us.


Also no need to be scared cus kids groomed in 9ja are still the majority in the team and the emergence of euro born kids won't hinder the inclusion of locally groomed kids.

The selection method is an open so it left for both sides to work hard to get a chance

ChrisKels:
Put Tammy in this Lille team, and he won't register a single shot on target, but place Osimhen in this Chelsea team where chances are created with aplomb, then u harvest goals like tomatoes

komekn:
Yes he is, but you can use dogged determination against a much stronger opponent who underestimates you.

The hungry man wins Osimhen is starving in this game. He scores two more goals and he is in the EPL by January.

komekn:
The battle is not between Tega and Victor.

But Victor against quality defenders possibly for the first time in his career against EPL defenders.Of which one of them has the very real possibility of playing for Nigeria. I am talking about Tomori Fikayo.

These are fast defenders who are use to playing against fast strikers but also very physical and skillful strikers.

Osimhen will have to use more than raw pace against Zuma and Tomori. He will need to find some skill and trickery. He will need to get some service and his finishing will have to be on point.

I can't see them beating Chelsea although football can be unpredictable.

On the other hand Lille defenders willl find in Tega Abrahams everything they don't want to face Pace, trickery and skill, Aerial dominance and finishing with a good degree of physicallity.

Who wins IMO Chelsea.

I understand nah
e too sweet you, thats y you forget to put AL

tbaba1234:
After how many games are we allowed to pass judgement on this Pepe lad??

Icon4s:
Today is my Birthday.
Wish me well guys

tbaba1234:
This is not true. Ndidi has had some really good games. The one that comes to mind is the friendly against Argentina. Monster in that game.

I can never play Etebo as an only DM if Ndidi is available. Ndidi protects the defense better. Simple. The stats back that.

The thing with DM is that it is easy to ignore what they do because it is not fancy.

TheSuperNerd:
Collins' Paderborn down by 2 again.... Now 1-3

Modified....

Paderborn scores again... 2-3


And it is Collins goal!!!!

JAMILU COLLINS SCORES HIS FIRST BUNDESLIGA GOAL AGAINST THE BIGGEST TEAM IN GERMANY. WHAT A WAY TO NET YOUR FIRST!

An absolute cracker of a goal from distance.

komekn:
When matters are taken out of context it becomes a CON and the basis to misrepresent.

My comments were in response to Joebie comments and the pertinent issue is " outstanding performance "

I quote myself

"Being in a top flight league doesn't not necessarily make you a top flight player"

What is the substance of my proposition ❓ l am saying essentially that he is not outstanding in the Bundesliga.

Your entire narrative garnished with academic diction makes no sense. What exactly is your point you qualify my position with your own opening remark. Your whole write up is convoluted noise making with little or no substance.

Statistics are indicative but not absolutely conclusive in the context of football. What's the point of having the most tackles but your team loses 10-0 it it is of no consequence in determining quality.

I have watched all his matches for the SE. My opinion is he was at best adequate nothing more and on many questions he was out of his depth and a liability.

You go up and down about how well he is doing in his team Paderborn in the Bundesliga and in that assertion you imply he is good quality.

Well that's misleading because his so called outstanding performances in your opinion. Have given his team Paderborn the ignoble position of being at the bottom of the BUNDESLIGA.

They are currently the worst performaning team in the Bundesliga. They have not been able to win a single game in the league so far.

So l put the question to you, who is being emotive and sentimental in thier bias and preference for this player❓ ❓ ❓

Hanibal:
Nobody here ever said he's top class, what you've been saying and kept saying is that he plays in the Bundesliga doesn't make him Bundesliga quality, and this isn't the first time you've made that statement, now that you're aware that he's been Paderborn's best player (stat wise) even as a left back... I hope you'll drop such uninformed statement at least until you can back it up with stats.
Now that you've changed the narrative to imply that you've been judging him with his Afcon performances, maybe I should remind you that he played only 3games at the Afcon, the first against South Africa, he was just coming out of injury he had the lowest rating among the back four, but on the day everyone in the back four had a good game (including Collins a game rating of 6.39 isn't bad at all) but we can admit he was the weakest link in defence that day.
Second game against Algeria in the back four only Awaziem had a better rating than him, he was far better than Troost, and on the same rating with Omeruo,.
Third game against Tunisia only Omeruo was better rated than him in the back four, he was ahead of Awaziem, and Troost.

Now statistics has proven your assertions that he isn't Bundesliga quality wrong, he is doing very fine in the Bundesliga.
Statistics has proven your assertions that he was the weakest link of our defence in the Afcon wrong, he played 3 matches and was second best in two!
So if what you've been saying about him for some weeks now isn't "slander".. Kindly borrow me the appropriate word.
Emotive prejudiced bias!

komekn:
Sorry no get that time do it yourself.

komekn:
There should be nothing like makeshift this is the national team not club football. There are no excuses, once you are called to play position you play it to the required standard.

In the AFCON he played as a RB you cant then say that because it's not his normal position we should accept mediocrity.

Unfortunately l didn't watch the match so l don't feel obliged to join the Hallelujah train.

I watched matches the same matches with many people here and thier view of particular players was Over-inflated.

I watched the Leicester match with Luton and the way they talk about KC you would think he was Neymar.

charlesemeka85:
awaziem did well as a right back at the last afcon.

komekn:
Collins is a very weak link as a Left back the same goes for Awaziem is simply not a RB lacks pace and becomes a liability.
