Etebo had an outstanding world cup undoubtedly.

However, he has not been outstanding in the Championship but far from it. That means he will not be generating too much interest.

That's the harsh reality of football.

andrewbaba44:
Ings is better than Tammy from day one

If I am the English coach ings will be my first Choice ahead of Kane

TheSuperNerd:
True. But he delivered solid performances from LB this past season for Arsenal and bagging the most assists (or if not most, definitely a good number of assists) for an "English-eligible" LB from that position so England not even giving him a shout for that position says something. And they didn't even consider Chillwell. That's worse. Anyway, it's their problem, not ours.

My only concern was to confirm Saka's absence from the list.

Yea, their problem.

Your worst fear, this time was unconfirmed.

andrewbaba44:
He should easily make that squad if we are sincere

Wetin Ben chilwell play wey saka no play

andrewbaba44:
Happy for foden and Ings

Tammy is still there

TheSuperNerd:
Lol... Maybe or maybe not. But look at that list again and you will find that there no recognised Leftbacks in the team. Not even Chilwell. Lol... All the same, good for us for now.

TheSuperNerd:
Yup.... Bukayo Saka NOT called up by Southgate.

BascoVanVeli:
No but I have a soft spot for them cuz of Osimhen. I've been following them since he left and they have made a great start this season.

mostob:
You are absolutely correct bro. Man u won't be bad but looking at the way they treated Ighalo is making me have a double mind about them sha.

Osimhen updates

Courtesy: IL Martino (@mattinodinapoli)

Osimhen met his new Napoli teammates yesterday and the captain, Lorenzo Insigne was the first to greet him at the San Paolo.

Today they arrived at Castel Di Sangro for their preseason camping/training.

The Napoli Journey begins for our Number 9 with his first training today.

BascoVanVeli:
I am backing Charleroi (Osimhen's former club) to win the league this season.

BascoVanVeli:
Odey should stop playing these nonsense friendlies and ask for a move.

nelszx:
Neuer was just too difficult to beat
How he spreads to cover his net needs to be understudied
I guess we should start training our keepers with handball it helps them alot

Danielnino00:
Funny enough, Sadiq only played 1 game in the Scottish league.. 4 in total for Rangers...
He played 12 times in the Eredivise,scored 5 and assisted 3..

The thing about Komekn is that once he doesn't like a player,he'd do anything to discredit that player....


That really makes me really doubt if he has any kind of love for the super eagles or he is just here to market his goods...

komekn:
Do not pervert my proposition to suit your nefarious narrative. There is a VERY BIG DIFFERENCE, but that will be lost on you.

Umar after 7 years in Europe, started off with Roma, then multiple loans in Seria A, B, then the Eredivisie as well as Scottish premier league. On all occasions he has been unable to claim a regular shirt very average but in the Scottish Premier league abysmal.

He then drops to the backwaters of European football after how many years in European football, with a league rated 20 in Europe, and is doing very well in that low level league.

However, is it a case of this is his level ❓ or genuine improvement. Until he moves to a better league he is still poor quality.

So when a player who has played in far higher leagues for several years without making any real progressive improvement drops 15 leagues below and then performs we should then say he is now a Lion.

He is simply a big fish in a very small pond, until he moves to the ocean we really can not tell if he he is a good swimmer.

You are the double standard bigoted hypocrite blinded by negative prejudice.

Finally, he is not the best in that low level league he not even in the top 5. So even the tag Lion in a low league is open to debate.

elyte89:
As washed up as he's... D options we av in his role he's playing @ his club are not "far" better dan him ,and he's just 28 if I am not mistaken.. So if he's willing ,y not

Is it awaziem..dt might b plying his trade in segunda is better Dan him
Or a rejuvenated ebuehi who's just getting back to his feet,is he better Dan moses
Or is it shehu in 2nd tier in Turkish league
Abi untested ehizibue,we don't knw aw he will turn out for us

E ti e so player kan to da ju v.moses lo,ka ti e gbo
E kan pari wo "old legs"

Gbe enu e soun jare!!

Ta ni n' pariwo old legs?

Those people clamoring for him are doing so because of what he can do as a winger, and I'm saying he isn't special as a winger no more.

That said, Moses won't come back to play as a full back.

Let talents prove their mettle in the NT then we can call it case closed.


Osaze equally proved himself and none of these current talents till further notice, come close.



The fact is LET them be tested!!!!


Only Nacho, Iwobi so far has been tested enough.

Till then Talents remains Talent!!

Many history abound to prove that.


They both may be finished to us, but a Coach might just disagree with our talk by including them. They are definitely not extra luggage, as far as SE is concerned.

TheGoodJoe:
I tire. Boy that grew from Academy again.

forgiveness:
It is only a qualified fool that thinks his opinion should be others.

ChrisKels:
This is my boy, I call him Nigeria's own version of Andrew Onana.

He is bound to be the best glovesman in the Israeli league next season. He is that good.

Kog45:
Oga Charles,a fit Balogun is better than all these players you mentioned.

Oh if na age matter I for gree my man but I can tell you that Omeruo and likely Awaziem are older than Balogun.

Pls which one be federal character again or are you saying Rohr is collecting bribe.

All Ahmed Musa need is to go back to European league again,forget all these Oyekwuru,Kalu hypes,may be Chuckwueze would be able to do it I don't know...

If I remember vividly Ahmed Musa have four World Cup goals.

Danielnino00:
He seem to have forgotten that Ighalo played in laliga and serieA around the age most of these players are and couldn't cut it.... Even in the super eagles,he was largely anonymous..

Thanks to Rohr that showed faith in him and gave him another chance after the world cup..

komekn:
Available options**
1) Osimhen - good quality yet to be proven at Higher quality Seria A.
2) Iheanacho - EPL flop
3) Simon - Good
4) Chukwueze - 3 goals in 37 games, a lot of development work required.
5) Kalu - Ok but not outstanding
6) Onyekuru - Good but unproven at Higher level
7) Musa - EPL flop
Onauchu - unable to justify selection from games played in the SE
9) Dessers. - untested at a higher level
10) Umar - very low quality league ( village champion)
11) Nwaekeme - untested at a higher level
12) Ejuke - untested at a higher level
13) Iwobi - midfielder
14) Kayode - Good potential but untested in SE opportunity not given.


None of these players has attained the level of Ighalo and none of them is better than him. The only player able to contend is Osimhen.

We talk about players in form, what will be Osimhen form in the much more quality and competitive Seria A.

He will not be the focal point of the team and with a ball played into space and or over the top of defenders for him to run onto as the main strategy will simply not work in Seria A. This league is well know for defending and closing spaces.

This is a test that Ighalo has already passed with flying colours, PROVEN, TESTED and CONFIRMED.

If we bring Vic Moses into the equation none of them has played at his level and or exceeded his ability.

Subzero047:
From : Victor Moses singlehandedly won us the Afcon

To : He was a major part we won the Afcon

To : I think Victor Moses was the reason we won the Afcon

Unserious:
Wait! Victor Moses paid you for this? Because I'm seeing nothing in all this your argument. Victor Moses has done his part, realize it was time to move on and he did. He has nothing more to offer us chikena! Abi na him fall and dive wan move our football forward?

forgiveness:
Go and watch all the matches. Why do you think he won the Samsung player of the tournament?

Can you denial the fact he scored 12 goals and assisted 7 times in 32 matches for the super eagles?

TheSuperNerd:
Get ready Elun.ico.

For your re-match with Komekn is about to start.

Unless ofcos he doesn't show up for this fixture. Meaning he allowed this goal enter.

IDENNAA:
I look Tomori finish laugh jjst dey catch me... Tomori is not better than what we have....bye boy!

forgiveness:
I will prefer a player that singlehandedly won Afcon, Europa and Epl over a prospect.
