nobody is saying you have to win everything but if you're a world class player and you can't win any of UCL, WC or your continental trophy i would seriously doubt your credentials.

i think what elyte89 is saying is for you to be tagged world class you most have won something substantial. i'm also of that school of thought.

Comparison of law, to football?

Please, let us stick to topic, before we jump and start comparign footballers to medical doctors too.

So, if I go by your analysis, Coman is a greater player than Gerrard.
No na...I didn't say dt...both players are great

I am talking in relation to our nigerian players been easily tagged as world class wout anything to show for it.I am of d opinion dt if a player wants to b tagged as world class must av a very rich CV(d only player dt fits dis criteria for me as a Nigerian player for d past 10years is Mikel,CONSISTENCY AND ALSO TROPHIES(BOTH COUNTRY AND CLUB)..dts just my opinion, not dt I am.comparing players with each oda wink

Oga calm down. The trophies he won at Juve and PsG , he won them as a squad player, not as an integral part of the team. He was no different from Rhian Brewster in Liverpool who also gets medal for all the tournament Liverpool has won since last year meanwhile we all know he is a carry along squad member.

The ones he had in Bayern this season is the ones he really worked for and participated in the success as an active member of the team.
Well.dts d merit of playing for a big team

Whether he won it as a squad player or not...it has been written down in history dt he won all those laurels,beside dt for him to av been given a medal shows dt he played more Dan 10games in a season (not too bad for a squad player) cool

You guys are missing football has changed and the tactical setup will make it difficult for individual performance to stand out. Messi is easily one of the best players with on the ball ability of all time but easily gets shrugged off the ball in a well arranged tactical setup. Same with Neymar, who I feel is one of the most blessed on the ball.

The Okocha's and Co would find it difficult to carryout massive individual performances because of the current speed and tactical set up of the game.
Yesterday's match support ur postulation... It was a game plan well carried out by Bayern,d match reminded me of our game against Germany in 2016 semi final Olympics..dey disrupted neymars play and PSG pressing fluid cool

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

Bros Ighalo and vic Moses have paid their dues and should move on. And who told you osimhen is not technically sound? Kid is still work in progress and won't turn world class overnight but so far he is well positioned talent wise to spearhead the attack of this current super eagles.

Behind osimhen we still have dessers, Iheanacho, Maja, Onuachu, Nwankwo and even Moffi. Any of these guys can be called upon to be worthy back up to osimhen who is the undisputed first choice currently in the team.

I am a big fan of iggy but it will be ill advised for him to return to the team
U guys re not giving us tangible reason y ighalo's. And also moses coming back to d national team is ill advised cos I don't get

Even d best national teams we look up to..dey re still parading deir "old legs", d likes of dani alves,thiago,Buffon,muller and co..dis guys are still very much active for dier national teams

I am sure if dis guys were Nigerians, we would av been calling for d retirement against dis mediocres we parade as players..our players wey go Neva win laurels or play @ a big stage when it matters..shio smiley

slight adjustment

2) Iheanacho - Proven SE player. Above average in EPL
7) Musa - Proven SE player performed at highest international level
10) Umar - showed promise in Seria A and Dutch Eredivise. Doing well in Serbia. Did well at Rio. untested and unproven in international soccer
11) Nwaemeke - tested in SE yet to prove quality
13) Iwobi - Struggling in EPL but proven in SE
14) Kayode - Laliga flop. tested in SE yet to prove quality

Based on SE performances yes Ighalo was outstanding but based strictly on club football at the highest level (not championship) sorry he leaves a lot to be desired. between Seria A, La Liga and EPL Odion has only scored more than 10 goals once. please that is not something to advertise as outstanding
Boss...aw can u say nacho is above average in epl grin grin grin

"Youngest team since 2018 without anything to show for it" - How many competition have we played since 2018??

Were the said players not at the world cup in 2018??

Was Ighalo not at the AFCON in 2019??

Cos I don't know what you are driving at by that statement

Also there's enough competition in attack if Kalu struggles, there's moses simon, Ejuke Nwakaeme,Osimhen, Dennis,Dessers and Chukwueze who had better stats than the said players and some even won individual laurels for their performance last season. We don't need to beg retired players
FYI...Vic moses is d only Nigerian player with d highest assist dis season (and he started half season with inter)January

And for ur first paragraph we av played 2competitions Sir

I can c dt majority don't want to c d so called old legs again in our team.however my position on dt is dis
1) I av not seen a team been rewarded with trophy or laurels for parading d youngest team in a tournament. D idea of capping d age of those who represent us in a tournament irrespective of d talent doesn't seem ideal to me.
D advantage is dere no doubt (we would av a team dt can last us up to a decade) but @ d moment we re yet to c result.we av been parading d youngest team since 2018 with nothing to show for it.I c no reason y nwakaeme can't be giving anoda chance again in team despite pulling nice stats for his club,he was shut out obviously because of his age. I saw d stat of rohrs untouchable player Samuel kalu.his stat is so poor dis season.more like a Gk stat,yet he keeps getting d invite and making d starting line up all because he's young cool

2) for d oldies in d aws ,let's go back to d memory lane and look @ d teams dt lifts d previous world cup.the least average age is beyond 26years.this shows dt experience counts if well blended with d young talent.I will support forgiveness on dis. Beside dt,musa has shown us dis in d past world cup,when chips were down ,he lifted d team with his goal..Iceland and also against argues(2014;though we lost smiley)

3 if d players (v.Moses and ighalo re WILLING to come back) if I am rohr..I won't hesitate to bring dem in.dis bring healthy competition in d team
U can't imaging a Vic mo and ighalo on d bench wyle our strikers(osimhen/nacho and chukwueze) re on d pitch playing.they would naturally give deir all on d pitch cos dey knw dt once dey mess up..d next match ,dey won't smell d starting line up in d next match..dis is d kind of competition dt has been missing in eagles for a very long time..d last time I can remember such competition existed in super eagles was in 2005/2006,dt team was star studded but were very unlucky coupled with indiscipline and bad management. That team could av done wonders if dey had qualified for d 2006 world cup edition. So.in a nutshell.. I believe if a player is still playing actively at d top level and he's still willing to play for us..d door is wide open irrespective of ur AGE.MY OPINION cool

Alright. Rohr has been aware of Adeleye for a while and he is just becoming aware of Matthew Yakubu. Yep... Yakubu has been mentioned to Rohr recently. So we watch.

But it is the top 3 that excite me most. Uzoho, Okoye and Osigwe. If Osigwe gets it going, and Okoye (who just finished keeping a clean sheet for Sparta in a friendly) also gets it going, then Akpeyi's time in the Eagles will be at an end sooner than later. Uzoho is still no.1 without doubt.
