Let’s add Nwakali to the nominees. That will alert Charles

Since Thesupernerd is on his usual sabbatical leave, and Charlesemeka85, depsite repeated mentions has, for reasons best known to him decided to snub the committee (depsite giving assurance of his availability twice), we will be moving on.
The final list of nominees will be compiled shortly..

Icon4s:


I thought #10 is for players that have represented Nigeria at any national team level. I don't think Gift Urban has featured for any of our national teams and Benjamin Frederick please remind me which of our Youth Teams he played for

On #10 Same for Joebie

My bad. I will modify it accordingly

What was the point of celebrating all over the thread for qualifying for the Champions league last season ahead of Liverpool (upon say the 7-0 pain you reach bone), only to finish bottom of the group?
This weekend, its another 7-0, Inshallah

I retrace what I said about Amuneke earlier. It's good that he came out quickly to clear the air.

My nomination:

1. Victor Osimhen, Victor Boniface, Alex Iwobi

2. Chiamaka Nnadozie, Asisat Oshoala, Toni Payne

3. Sadiq Ismail, Sikiru Alimi, Amas Obasogie

4. Bruno Onyemachi, Victor Boniface, Nathan Tella

5. Osayi Kingdom, Amas Obasogie, Kayode Bankole

6. Calvin Bassey, Semi Ajayi, Zaidu Sanusi

7. Alex Iwobi, Wilfred Ndidi, Daniel Daga

8. Victor Osimhen, Victor Boniface, Taiwo Awoniyi

9. Taiwo Awoniyi, Wilfred Ndidi, Calvin Bassey

10. Daniel Daga, Victor Eletu, Benjamin Frederick

11. Frank Onyela goal vs Mozambique, Keleci Iheanacho goal vs Saudi Arabia, Ademola Lookman goal vs Sao Tome

12. Kelechi Iheanacho assist for Awoniyi vs Sao Tome, Sanusi assist for Iheanacho vs Sierra Leone, Aribo assist for Osimhen vs Sierra Leone

13. Super Falcons, Flying Eagles, Enyimba

14. Randy Waldrum, Finidi George, Ladan Bosso

15. Akor Adams, Gift Orban, Tosin Adarabioyo

Darkelf, come out here and collect....

The comments on CAF social media pages are 🔥🔥
The Algerians are really angry..

Amuneke really fall my hand there..does he have a personal beef with Osimhen? Even if so, he shouldn't have said he'd pick Salah over Osimhen,considering the role he played in getting Osimhen to the limelight

Joebie:
For clarity sake, #15 is open to ALL players of Nigerian origin, born at home or abroad, but NOT open to players that is impossible for them to honor a call immediately (require a switch from another country)

We can vote on this.

I think it's better to make it available to any player of Nigerian origin. Whether or not they require a switch doesn't change the fact that they are still eligible to represent Nigeria

Kog45:
Rohr and Agu put us into this messy situation but I thought Peseiro would have done the needful.

He does not have any option than to throw it open and see if he can salvages the situation.It is very easy to know a good keeper but our technical staff are making it so difficult.

Uzoho
Okoye
Adeleye
Nwabili
2 home keepers.

Rohr tried to some extent regarding the goalkeeping department.. At least he didn't stick to one goalie for long.. After Ikeme was forced to retire, he turned to Akpeyi... Akpeyi started to misbehave and Ezenwa became first choice.. then Uzoho and later Maduka..
Peseiro has stuck with Uzoho since he came in, with the exception of some minutes given to Maduka and Adeleye

caprikon:


I just hope this is a joke but this is Naija..

6 goalies, 4 midfielders, ...like we could bring in a goalkeeper to change the course of a game.

If only JP was a Nigerian..

Its for the preliminary squad not final squad..but i won't be surprised to see a thin midfield list for the final team list

Saw a report that Peseiro is planning to mame 6 goalkeepers in his AFCON preliminary squad.. the man has lost it...
Friendlies that he ought to have used to test pther goalkeepers,he wasted them on Uzoho in the name of boosting his confidence..

Icon4s:


Well done Danielnino00, these criteria are highly noted.

For #15 does the player have to be a 'foreign born', or any Nigerian player, irrespective of whether local or foreign born?

Any Nigerian player, irrespective of where they are born. As long as they are eligible to represent the Super Eagles.

The super eagles will partake in a pre AFCON tournament in UAE in January before leaving for thr Ivory Coast. We will play Burkina Faso and DR Congo..

Good morning gentlemen.

Based on the responses given, it's clear that everyone want us to adopt the former criteria for nomination.
So here we go....

All committee members are to nominate 3 names for each category, and the names with the most nomination would be selected for the final round of voting by all Nairalanders. In the event that there is a tie in the names nominated, all members of the committee will have to vote on it.
The criteria for nomination include:
1. All nomination should fall under the year 2023 in review.
2. Number 4 (most impactful new inclusion) refers to a player who made his super eagles debut this year and left a good impression
3. Number 15 (prospect of the year) refers to a player of Nigerian origin, regardless of his age who is eligible to represent Nigeria, but hasn't, and is highly talented.
4. For those of us who might be forgetful, its recommended that we tune in to Bascovanveli YouTube channel (Naija bias football channel) for highlights of super eagles games this year to help in deciding the nomination for nunber 11 and 12.
5. Nomination closes on Friday 15th December 2023.
