U must think this is a friendly match or something. Let's move our feelings out the way, which one is Zogg or Maureen? Next! Akudo is injured and we already have Okeke in camp. I feel Christy will have to pair with Ohale but u look at the bench and there's skeletons. I have no problem if the coach wants to move on from her but saying she isn't a worthy option is wild to me.

If she is as washed up as u want us to believe no foreign club would have knocked on her door. Then for her to leave all what was offered by the Naija Ratels boss she must have been given a significant increase in pay. So make it make sense. Ur only out would be if she was just there to pass on experience off the field but then she is playing week in week out.

Concerning bringing in the likes of Okeke, Maureen Umeh, Zogg and co, is for the future purpose not because of this game in Particular…!

Let me just make it clear here, in Israel the lowest she would be earning there is arguably $1500 monthly but she won’t be earning that because of her Pedigree having been in the game for long, she should be earning at least btw ($2500 — $3000 ) or a little more or below that range monthly ….

In Women’s Football National Team Players tends to earn higher than those that don’t play for their Country National Team, then when you play for a top Country and you’re well known, your Pay automatically is on the high side..!

Paris 2024 :

We are a team with mostly foreign based players and our professionalism is the edge….

Some of the players that trained today :
1.Osinachi Ohale - Mexico
2.Jennifer Echegini- Italy
3.Toni Payne - Spain
4.Abiodun Deborah - USA.
5.Ucheibe Christy - Portugal
6.Chidinma Okeke - Japan
7.Uchenna Kanu - USA.
8.Linda Jiwaku- Bayelsa Queens,🇳🇬
9.Jumoke Alani - Nasarawa Amazons,🇳🇬
10.Shukurat Oladipo- FC Robo,🇳🇬
11.Chiamaka Nnadozie - France
12.Tochi Oluehi - Saudi Arabia.
13.Rasheedat Ajibade- Spain
14. Monday Gift- Spain

BascoVanVeli:
The question was about leagues but of course u would move the goal post.

Al ittihad is average. They can't beat anyone in the top 4.

If u know that this debate is being held because of injuries what is the commotion about?

Because of injury, So why bring in GrandMa instead of Young Legs that are Capable and very much quicker instead of Mama that the SA forwards will easily outrun..!

Anyway we have grown past 40+ in the SuperFalcons, there’s no experience she wants to offer that the likes of Tochi, Ohale, Ayinde and Co can’t offer the younger ones!

Forward Ever! Cause I will rather have Zogg or Maureen or Okeke or Akudo instead of Mama Onome

BascoVanVeli:
Is Saudi Arabia a better league than Israel yes or no Just stick to the she is too old angle cos she went to the world cup without a club and there is no way u can prove she got worse now that 2 clubs have taken chances on her.

IMO she is needed right now as a back up. No Tosin, Plumptre or Akudo. I trust her more than Shukurat who I think is a good young player but is just not ready.

Neither are both leagues better than each other? By the way her Club in Israel can’t be compared with Ashleigh own in Saudi…

By the way I’m happy we have successfully moved past that Grandma in Defense..! Time for the Younger Bloods to come.

If not for injuries who will be here talking about wanting Onome in the team again?? We Move!!

BascoVanVeli:
What is Saudi Arabia's rank Definitely not better than Israel. Let's stop abeg. U don't want her on the team and that's okay.

Are going to pick Onome Ebi over Ashleigh Plumptre right now

Onome Ebi have no Business in the SuperFalcons team again, if you want to her you can give her a Call Up!

So Randy wha no da invite her again since after World Cup nor know Wetin he da do na!

AndSunGorilla:
Onome Ebi is an exception too, she's almost close to ménopause and still has the lungs to play at 40+.

Yes she has the Lung to play but let her continue playing at her Club side not the National Team… She no longer have the Capacity to Compete at the National Team Level as her game have dropped… Or are you trying to Pick a Player Playing in Israel which isn’t among the top 30 in Europe ahead of those based in (top5 -10) leagues in the World??

lovewins:
No na. No one is saying she's bad, You however can't judge a player by what she did 5 years ago. Also, this isn't about judging her, it's about taking the most commonsense approach to the game. Of course of she does well in training i believe she'll get the nod.

Also, she didn't get the call up by displacing trusted hands. Injuries made room for her and I hope she gives a good impression of herself.

Let’s see how it goes, the good is she’s versatile and can play position in the Defense line..!

With Kanu getting back to Form it’s pretty Obvious that Rinsola Babajide will have to come from the bench..

Ashleigh Plumptre OUT ➡️
Jumoke Alani IN⬅️

Quick Recovery Plumptre.❤️

Defense Line🆙

Alozie— Ohale—Ucheibe—N.Payne

Since you guys don’t Trust Okeke anymore, by the way she can’t be that Bad at all after playing at the World Cup, Europe and now in Asia (Japan)😞

AndSunGorilla:
No be e and you dey invite player.so.we no fit and btw Mercy is officially retired and is a coach. Mama Onome neva retire.

Invite Onome to come and do what?? We’re Clamoring for Younger, Quicker and Energetic Defenders you are taking us Backwards with a 40+ GrandMa!


At this Stage Defenders that we need now should be U25…. Maybe 27 can still come in If she’s very good with exceptional qualities we can’t look away from..!

For a Center Back to Win Player of The Tournament, there’s more to this top talent!

Honored and humbled to be named Player of the Tournament at SWIT Cup U19! 🏆⚽ Thanks to my amazing club, teammates, coaches, and staff for their unwavering support. Grateful to the organizers for providing a fantastic platform for young talents. To my friends, supporters, and family - your love and encouragement mean the world to me.

Here's to more incredible moments!

AkinDS:
She played under Randy in the US Summer series.
She started as CB and ended playing as RB against Jamaica and Portugal (or maybe the other way round).
She was rather unimpressive during the series.

She only played FB against Jamaica and was later moved to CB when injuries and Substitutions set in…

Against USA Randy played 3CB’s
Okeke, Onome and Glory Ogbonna

Against Portugal she played CB too
Alozie- Okeke- Onome- Ogbonna

If not for Series of Injuries that disturbed her Okeke isn’t a Bad defender, I just hope she regains the level she was 2018/19.

LaLiga female U19 best player of the tournament is nobody but our own Olamide Oyinlola who captain her team to semi final although they were out in semifinal but the former Nigeria U17 player won it big..

daveP:
Randy should just improvise and play 3 defense. We are missing 4key defenders now. That's the closest to chemistry we can get out of this. I thought Alozie is injured?

If you go with 3defense…

Okeke and Ucheibe must come in at CB alongside Ohale

daveP:
Randy should just improvise and play 3 defense. We are missing 4key defenders now. That's the closest to chemistry we can get out of this. I thought Alozie is injured?

She’s fit now, played almost the 90minutes in their last game against Bay FC

mostob:
I don't think Okeke will just come in to the team straight. That will.be risky.

Are you sounding as if she hasn’t played under Randy before?? With Plumptre out there’s every possibility that she can come in except Ucheibe is been moved there.!

dkay51:
Its Official
🧾CAMP UPDATE:

Defender Jumoke Alani named as replacement for Ashleigh Plumptre, who pulled out due to injury 🤕 vs South Africa 🇿🇦

So right now we have

1. Osinachi Ohale
2. Chidinma Okeke
3. Shukurat Oladipo
4. Michelle Alozie
5. Nicole Payne
6. Jumoke Alani…

This defense line won’t be Bad though.
Alozie — Ohale — Okeke — N. Payne

Or we no longer trust Okeke anymore to play at this Level?? Or Ucheibe should be brought to the CB and allow btw Okeke and Nicole play Left Back.

Super Falcons Winger Rasheedat Ajibade and goalkeeper Tochukwu Oluehi have arrived in camp, leading the charge for Nigeria’s women’s national football team. Head Coach Randy Waldrum, Assistant Coach Kyle, and the entire backroom staff are also on the ground, ready to guide the team towards Olympic qualification.

According to Colin Udoh


Forward Ifeoma Onumonu was subbed off with an ankle injury late in Utah Royals 1-2 loss at Washington Spirit. But she told me after the game she will still fly out to NGSuperFalcons camp for Paris2024 qualifiers vs BanyanaBanyana

solonnachi:
News I'm hearing from Soccernet is that Randy might not be available for Nigeria double leg games with South Africa. Seems his college team will also be engaged on the 6th and 16th of April.

Ashleigh Plumpre is injured and replaced by Jumoke Alani of Edo queens.

May God help us ooo

Stop Spreading False Information…

Randy Waldrum is already in Camp for the game against South Africa, the American has arrived in Nigeria for the Paris 2024 Olympics qualifying doubleheader.

Waldrum, who is also in charge of the University of Pittsburgh is among the early birds to the team’s camp on Sunday night.

lovewins:
Omo. They first us open camp in our own country.

Really do up the girls get into camp latest tomorrow .

They will definitely arrive between Tomorrow 1st and the evening of Tuesday 2nd of April..
I believe 70% of our players are already on their way to Camp… Ifeoma Onumonu is the only one i expect to arrive late as she’s currently on the Bench for Utah Royals in their game against Washington Spirit that’s currently going on…

PDPGuy:
Ironically, she’s the only Nigeria women’s or men’s midfielder who does that consistently

And that’s one of her major attributes and she’s using it very well…! Her accuracy is also top notch. She should add taking set pieces to her game then she’s over good to go!

Happy Easter my people !

In another News Super Falcons opens camp today for the must win Olympic Qualifiers against South Africa.
Friday 5th and 9th the days of reckoning.
