Bolowolowo:


Iwobi is not foreign born.

Regardless, your point still stands. Foreign players will always be an integral part of our footballing system. If a foreigner is of Nigerian descent and merits being on our team, there's no harm in pursuing them.

Have you questioned majority of our 'Integral' players are born and bred outside Nigeria

Does England use any juju aside from a working youth structure, We won't be a great footballing nation by feeding on the crumbs of English football

jihday:
Who the fak is Gabigol? I'm talking about better players you are mentioning Latino Mfon Udoh, Firmino isn't an out and out striker @ USA what makes a footballing country? You guys don't even spend a quarter of what they invest in football so much for footballing country

Gabigol has 18 goals in 18 matches this season and is more valued than Osimhen

I don't need to explain to you what a footballing nation means

jihday:
It's not by population Brazil have more and they can't boast of a decent CF don't mention Jesus cos he's been warming bench in City plus he flopped at the last world cup, USA have more population and we can easily beat them on our best day

Firminho and Gabigol na bricklayers?

@The bolded USA is not even a footballing nation, go and challenge them for basketball

Tomori has refused us, we are waiting for the next foreign born player to fill the gap in our defence

A country of 200 million people

jihday:
You can't say we don't want foreign born, once a player is eligible to play for us it's very OK for us to approach such player, Every country does it even countries with superb organisation. There's no embarrassment if we approach a player and he turn us down, Spain approached Laporte he said no they did to Griezman too he said no Costa turned Brazil down for Spain, Jorginho flirted with his native Brazil for a call-up but them no look his side till Italy capped him after rejecting them earlier nobody was embarrassed. we Nigerians like to dey proud for nothing we aren't even top 3 best African team in history, if we see foreign born who will add value to our team we approach if he turn us down we'll move on

Those countries have a working youth structure, that compensates if the approached player does not play for them, what do we have?

We sorely RELY on these foreign players to breach GAPING holes in our team, that's we desperately chase them and are embarrassingly refused

We refuse to work on our production line because we believe an ENGLAND born, ENGLAND bred, ENGLAND trained player would deny his country of residence and play for us

They should keep a cone in that post instead of the keeper

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.

Tammy Abraham is the second highest goalscorer in EPL and Tomori has posted eye catching performances in a club like Chelsea

Forget that thing

Noah Okafor scores for Basel

tbaba1234:


What will constitute proof for you?

1. Eze is not among those being worked on at the moment.

A player whose switch is being worked on can not appear for another country till it is complete as per FIFA rules. Eze was in the last England under 21 squad.

2. Eze does not even need a switch as he has no competitive games.

He has already been listed for the U21s

It might not be as straightforward as you think

tbaba1234:


I know..

That is ridiculous, you are trying to say that the NFF currently working on a player switch of four FB players is ignoring the most obvious, least costliest, least time consuming, highest-rated option in Eze

I refuse to believe that, you need to have a proof

tbaba1234:


Eze is just been ignored. That is the number 1 factor.

How do you know?

komekn:


Eberechi Eze comes to mind.

You don't know factors preventing Ebere Eze from getting his call up

Don't think NFF are blind, besides all these guesswork about him being cap tied or not maybe different on actual administrative grounds

terzurum5:
I will not miss Tammy Abraham.
I never wanted Rohr to invite him in the first place after insulting the whole nation, "red carpet' things.

We have Osimhen and shall continue to discover more potent and prolific forwards.

The only person I wish we never missed is Fikayo Tomorrow.

I've never heard of him

isan:
U mean azubuike modric kroos okechuxkwu

It's a pity we can't get to see his glorious passes

Humility017:


you wasting your time replying that dude...
he barely think broad.....

You don't think at all

tbaba1234:



Idowu??

You are confusing me

Olowu sorry

tbaba1234:


How is your response related to my statement?

I will address the Idowu issue later

tbaba1234:


Olowu from that Arsenal academy has declared for Nigeria. You win some, you lose some.

With all due respect this your 'More Nigerian, less Nigerian' argument is sh1t, Tammy Abraham is definitely less Nigerian than a Sadiq Umar

One has all his allegiances to Nigeria, the other can pick and choose when to be Nigerian or not, Tammy Abraham blatantly abused that privilege to force the hand of the English FA for a call up, and that may not be the end of his antics

The worst is you cannot even accuse him of not having patriotism because he can choose which country he can identify with

Tell me again, how is Tammy Abraham as much Nigerian as Sadiq Umar?

The only time these guys want us is when we don't want them

tbaba1234:
Thank God, England has invited them. We can move on now.

This will continue to repeat itself until we start to look at our academies

Somebody is already showcasing Arsenal bench

IF YOU MUST KNOW

William has scored as much Champions league goals as Ronaldinho

Imagine the world without women

TheGoodJoe:



Ironically, I am still not sold on Mbappe. He has done well but I am not sold.

My eyes are on Haaland. If he continues with the form close to what he has shown, he will be my ideal class for a pure high grade talent.

Mbappe has won the golden boy award, the world cup, the Ligue 1,the highest goal scorer in ligue 1,The best player in Ligue 1, The world XI and is currently the most valuable player in the world

Chai TheGoodJoe!

TheGoodJoe:


And was on the score sheet later because he was fit.

He was like 60% fit before the match, the coach said it

TheGoodJoe:


19-year-old Haaland is just starting. He has scored 17 goals in 10 club games, including four hat-tricks, and will look to add to that tally for Salzburg against Liverpool on Wednesday

---

And he scored yesterday against Liverpool.

Being on the bench does not mean the player is not good.

Haaland was on the bench because he was not fit

Humility017:


begging
please don't make toil this dirty path with you...

you know yourself and how good you've been involving in the trade

Do you know any begging tactics you can suggest to the NFF to get Buyako Saka

You are invited to do your worst

Humility017:


who want put kid....

I am so happy because Pinnick Rohr are better reasonable they know how to maximize talents littered all over and call up those willing to play for us.....


your parochial thinking is inimical to progress

Have you prepared your begging hat for Buyako Saka

It seems it didn't work with Tammy and Tomori

Humility017:


if.the likes of you was the super eagles coach...
folks like Aina,Iwobi and others won't have get call ups at all....

because of your parochial thinking....
you simply don't know how to maximize so much opportunities

Go to sleep, Tammy Abraham and Tomori will play for you tomorrow

I will be here to laugh at all you beggars when Southgate releases his list and includes Tammy and Tomori in it

Beggars

And I will also laugh when Bukayo Saka gets his England call up, More Nigerian, less Nigerian indeed

MetalJigsaw:
Not true... Its even hard to see any player of Dual nationality that includes African lead England's attack. The English are too biased to let that happen.

Vardy is retired

TheSuperNerd:
Nigeria U-23 know their opponents....

The race to Tokyo 2020 Olympics.

Starts: November 8

Thank God Rohr has already been appointed

If not na LLLL we go get

MetalJigsaw:
Rashford and Vardy

Vardy is retired, Tammy has a good chance
