Being in a top league does not automatically make you a top player. You can be anonymous and almost a spectator.

I would rather have the most outstanding consistent players in the Championship than a players in a moi moi team in La Liga who has done nothing and will do nothing.

Eze, Tega and Ovie are outstanding players in thier league.

You could add Iorfa and Adarabioyo to that list in the context of defence. And on the wing we have Osayi coming in to stake a claim.

Finally, Scottish Premiership league may have a low rating. however the club Rangers has a much much higher rating than Huesca in European club ratings.

If you have the time look at the players and value of Sunderland and Hulls players and compare to Huesca and you will see gap that will suprise. And these are essential league one clubs now.

ChrisKels:
He didn't forget, he deliberately left that out thinking that we wouldn't notice. Dude single handedly sent Swansea back to the Championship.

jihday:
second

He had an unmemorable time at Swansea. It's so bad that even Komekn seem to have forgotten.

ChrisKels:
Bros, ignore.

ChrisKels:
I know Ayaka na.

U can't tag nwakali's inclusion to ur dream team futuristic when he is yet to do anything in the game since leaving the shores of Africa since the past 3 nd half years.

If you re being sincere in your post you would have atleast included a player who hv been showing promise since the past 1 or 2 seasons consistently.

The likes of aribo, chukwueze, ejaria, Eze etc hv been performing in the past 1-2 seasons and it's ideal for any right thinking super eagles fan to predict that the aforementioned players are likely to make the 2021 afcon team or the 2022 world.

The Nwakali u re hyping and clamouring for his possible inclusion in the team is yet to stake a claim in the first team of Huesca which is the reason i still maintain that your post is full of sentiment and favoritism.

If you re being sincere with your 'futuristic' dream team Nwakali won't even make bench of Rohr's team when more serious and talented players are emerging day in dayd out.

The ideal thing is for you to wait and pray Nwakali performs well in laliga next season before making your prediction

Rohr is a good team manager but he is not that good tactically. When you find a perfect tools for something,and this tool has a shortcoming, you don't throw the tool away...you find a way to neutralize its shortcoming. This is a perfect illustration of Rohr. I admit I do get frustrated with his conservative football at times . NFF was supposed to hire somebody with vast knowledge in attacking football to balance the equation but who did we get?. ... YOBO. Dude is even a DEFENDER.

Bro, corruption has come to stay in Nigeria. don't think it will get better at all.
every institution seems to perpetually corrupt, i was in the High Court today to do an affidavit

the level of corruption i see amongst those court officials baffles me, even the commissioner for oath is more corrupt than anyone could think

Nigerians are just something else when they see money, the average Nigeria can easily be bribed
having an indigenous coach for SE will make it easy for mediocre players that earn some hard currencies to fetch call ups
all they have to do is to dangle a few dollar notes at the face of this indigenous coaches
boom!! they get call ups and even get to play

2lola:
He is still in Nigeria.
That was what I read 2 days ago

Danielnino00:
Onyekuru case may be beyond playing in Turkey..
For some reasons I can't understand, Rohr doesn't rate him...

Check the stats of all our current wingers that started playing football 5-6 years ago, Onyekuru has the best goal record among them! He can function on any side of the wing and also as a lone striker or false 9..

E surely get why Rohr doesn't start him.

Personally,I like Onyekuru...I think he has what he take to be like Mane..
A goalscoring winger with good work rate..

sheyishemba:
Which kain players ya talking as if we're having Brazil kind of players don't be decieved 90% of these players are average players while the remaining 10% are just prospect even with messi,Martinez rojo,icardi,aguero, Argentina no win their continent title and to talk of Nigeria who is just full of average players and young prospect . I must confess ya cracking me up big time you better no make afrobear hear that one

sheyishemba:
Agreed with some of your points but have some reservations
In your preposition you said there is nothing rohr has achieved that some of local coaches haven't achieve you have a point though but there are some reservations about it ...most of local coach we have employed in the past lacks transparency and accountability most of this local coaches ruin the career of many of our youngster just because they are agents to these players and want to be rewarded handsomely not considering how bad the moves can affect the players ...
Another issue is godfatherism if you will agree with me most of the local coaches have godfather that were instrumental in their appointment these godfather influence the player selection of the team and it is not good for our football sometimes football is not always about winning trophy (though it the major aim for every team to win a trophy ) in guardiola first two season he didn't even a spoon not to talk of a cup but he put some protocol in place that even if guardiola leaves man city today any manger that takes his place will still continue in that good form .but when keshi left how many keshi players is still in the SE till date, 60 percent of his players career died alongside with him. Am not in support of any local coaches for now but I can bid for the likes of emanalo in the future .

TheGoodJoe:
They can taste honey and sell, Mahrez, Kate, Maguire and still want honey.

Simple, Rodgers over achieved with a mediocre squad. They also suffered key injuries like Ndidi for a brief while and probably their best player, Ricardo Pereira. It is not easy to want to by a range rover with N10,000.

IDENNAA:
I stand firmly with what Odegbami is saying. You cant tell me out of all qualified Nigerians coaches and the rest of qualified persons from other African countries we cant find a coach from the continent who understands our football mentality. Its high time we stop giving these Europeans chances to ridicule us. Slavery is over yet we are still hiring these white men thinking they have some magic wand.

NFA should also give scholarships to interested retired super eagles player as a reward for their service. We need to invest in our football because even if a black man is the smartest coach the whites will never employ him , simply because they feel you are inferior to them.

TheGoodJoe:
Is it Rodgers fault?

Just look at.

Rodgers did well with an average team and you are praising Mourinho for struggling with a quality team.

Mbok, forget abowrit.

TheSuperNerd:
Stats on Ndidi's Class in the DM role

✔Top Tackler in the EPL three seasons in a row: 2017/2018, 2018/2019, and now 2019/2020

✔ Top interceptions two seasons in a row (2017/2018 and 2018/2019) and for the first time, Second in interceptions this season despite missing a good number of games.

Ndidi is the undisputed Best DM in the EPL. A World Class performer.

jihday:
Na this kain mentality dey vex me, why can't he start somewhere and get noticed? Why lobbying for a job with the SE or dream team not even the U-17, all these opportunist sef their matter dey tire me

I taught I was the only one that’s a big fan of van da vaart

jihday:
See statistics like goalkeeper own, this guy really need to up his game

AIG07:
This comment of yours reminds me of a certain 'Blueto'(I don't know if I get the spelling of his moniker right).

It's been a while I came across his post here! Hope he is doing well.

Philosopher1979:
He dribbled thomas partey (one of the best midfielders in Europe) that day partey was fustrated. I hope he gets his form back

Isahalbash:
If @bold was the case, I wouldn't have argued about it cos it is 100% true: even within the same muslims, some sect still refer to other sects as "kufr"( unbelievers) simply because they didnt conform to their own version of Islam. But the case here is entirely different. This same herdsmen have been killing muslims too in Zamfara and Katsina.

If the killings in Southern kaduna is/was because they are/were christians; what about the ones in the muslim dominated areas? Was it also because they were christians?

ChrisKels:
The answer to this question is broad in the second paragraph of the post you quoted bro

ChrisKels:
Swears!!

No bro, you can't leave bkus of the simp. That would amount to getting his denseness glorified. He ain't worth getting you riled up, we already know his mission here and how insecure he feels.

IDENNAA:
And all the crappier English talents that never brought any quality to the SE.

Honestly, the only thing these English boys has over Nigerian bred talent is opportunities and a working system. Nothing more!

Isahalbash:
Simple question: are those people killed in zamfara and katsina killed because they are christians?

Why always using the "christian" tag ?

TheOtherCitizen:
Nigerians really genuflect for foreign born players. Ejuke, Moses Simon better players but most folks tweaking their lineup to fit in Saka.

Easily triggered fanbase.

TheOtherCitizen:
Dessers is pretty good. But it was a penalty.

Also, Genk are a very good side. Their opponents finished second last season and had the best defence.

So Dessers is getting good service.
Though Onuachu missed a one-on-one.

Account got banned.

ChrisKels:
Until he proves that in the Belgian league

TheSuperNerd:
Dessers scored again by the way. Genk up 1-0.
