My own is they better not make this guy change his mind. Scotland will soon pounce on him. Time is money.

Scotland coach is not like England coach. The last time I heard him speak about players eligible to play for Scotland, he made it clear that he will never go after any who has double mind to play for either for Scotland or other countries.

Besides, Eze heart and soul is to play for Nigeria though anything can change man pikin heart hence I concur he must be called now. It is frustrating to see Rohr ignore him and call Semi Ajayi and Etebor in the same league.

edi287:
The guy sha. What is taking him so long to try Eze out? I like how he packed forwards sha.

I don't think he really knows what he is doing. If he does, how can he live out Eze who is out performing Etebor in the same championship league?

Sentiments is all I see in his selection many times.

Lollllll
a tribalistic being calling me a tribal bigot.

you really have a problem...
if i was a tribal bigot I would have been cavassin for Ighalo and Vic Moses because I am from same place with them....even same tribe with one of them....I am not even an ibo, I have never live there even more closer to Yorubas than I am with the south easterners. but same cannot be said of you...everyone know here know you as a tribal bigot.
or should we do a vote on that?

you see people should be put in positions because they can deliver and not because of tribal affiliation.

you really need to change your ways...

What is my problem after what some of us said here about Iheanacho poor performance last season was confirmed by many neutral pundits?

Are dey also tribalist?

You may have soft spot for a particular tribe though you are not from there but on the other hand hate a particular tribe. That alone qualified you as a tribalist. Check your soul and don't lie to yourself.

'Everyone' you're talking about are 99% from one tribe. As you can see, it doesn't add up.

If people should be put in positions because they can deliver, what is the problem if players that can deliver are mentioned regardless of where the player and person who mention them comes from?

Even Komekn and Joebie were called tribalist because they rightfully mentioned Tammy and Onomah. But if the same fellows mention their tribes men, they are holy, righteous and perfect like God. Hahahaha!

Is that not getting out of hands? Is that not one form of intimidation?

Well, you may have succumbed but I refuse to. I will mention players good enough to play for the NIGERIAN NATIONAL Team even if those players are from one particular tribe. EOD

Now, answer why were you crying APC rigged Osun state election?

Don't tell me you hate APC for no reason.

darkelf:
I wonder why rohr still includes ezenwa and akpeyi in his team. What could be wrong?

This is past being conservative? Do they have godfathers in NFF?

These guys don't merit it. And it gonna make Uzoho complacent since there's no real competition.

Even Ighalo. Another bad showing against Libya should convince even his die-hard supporters that he has nothing to offer.

Gbam!

edi287:
Still no Eze...Rohr no go get sense now. Didn't even bother replacing injured Joel Obi.
From the list, I'd like us to line up with Uzoho - Idowu, Leon Balogun, Troost Ekong, Aina - Ndidi, Etebo, Iwobi - Musa (he's in great form), Success and Moses Simon.
However, we all know Rohr...Ighalo and Onazi will definitely start even if you threatened him at gun point.
Onyekuru - Ighalo - Kalu
Musa - Success - Moses Simon
Kalu - Success - Moses Simon
So many combinations to choose from for our front 3. Rohr better not Bleep things up. Even if you want to question the quality of our current players - one thing you can't deny is we have the right balance.
It's up to Rohr to stop with his destroyer fetish and be bold!

Rohr no dey think at all at all. No replacement for Joel. I can't understand.

safarigirl:
you no k ow say na Kelechi dey block him nephew road for Super Eagles?

If Kelechi is not in the team, maybe Rohr will remember Kauode is still alive somewhere. For now, Kelechi is the reason why forgiveness and him people no fit watch Super Eagles game with joy and excitement.

Who are him people? Come out loud and clear safa.

daveP:
Perhaps he rates Ighalo high with his worst turn of goals for the se in 3yrs.

I'll wait so happily for the next rating by Marca that would catch him since he now loves their ratings. Yardstick!!

Hmmm! I can see you are just emotional attached. Nothing more nothing less.

daveP:
No. it's very stale!! I'm very much around and saw lots of actions and reaction, but refused to further aggravate it, esp when such are tackled well. You don't expect fans that want the best of any GwG player to watch as you try to stigmatize them and turn a blind to the other. You were not making a point, it was obvious you were up to rubbing it in. Now that's hate.

You know that if I choose to arise and start to use you antagonistic yardstick for players you love, it would be useless cos I don't benefit from such shenanigans.


You hate Nacho and I can really feel it from afar. What's your crux with him? Its so so obvious you didn't even bother for those other star, world class players that made the worst XI. But rather decided to hinge on Nacho alone. Don't bring that talk of I'm concerned only with SE players.

It's stale man...very stale!! You hate this guy. And you do belong to the cliche that believes form is constant. Bravo!!


I'm not against you pointing out any new thing, but now I can see you just show this hate with gusto. Its hate!! Don't know what the kid did that makes you so bent on this cheap stale approach.

Was Iheanacho poor last season as I made it known then? Yes or no?

No need for too much sermon.

ChrisKels:
Odunayaw(odunayo) sounds western Nigerian to me.

Stop trying to know other peoples tribe here.

oloriooko:
Why is Enyimba goalie not included in this list?
What is the technical unit of NFF doing to get this dude called up to the SE?

A ma moooo!

chrisooblog:
decent list pity no Mikel.

It's confirmed ezenwa or akpeyi have rohr's nude pics cos I see no reason why either of those two are being called up at the expense of Theo afelokhai

Tyrone, vicmo and ebere to join Omo you have a pretty formidable squad on your hands

If I ask questions, dem will say you are clamouring for Theo because you are Yoruba.

Here, common sense is nolonger common.

Odunayaw:
I have had my fair share of mixing with other people & culture. I see everybody based on their character, skill etc FIRST before their ancestry.

How do you know am Yoruba

Wow! The truth has been manifested and the judgement has been given yet dem no wan gree

safarigirl:

Some people be like. Why is Ighalo on the list?

Simmy and Nwakali out. Rohr don dey get sense small small.

Joel Obi no dey!? Even though he's injured, why can't he replace him with Agbo. A dmf.

The Midfield is not strong enough.

I didn't see Shehu too.

ChrisKels:
This list just ruined GiwaDalung and Southgate's day. The bickering and heartache those two are having now, are better imagined. They are in excruciating pains hence are gonna be venomous but I just hope no one commits suicide ooo. How on earth did Rohr leave out our best players in Ajagun, Ilori, Solanke, Iorfa, Kayode, Alampasu, Aiyenugba, Olayinka et al?

Oh! You are showing your colour, na?

Well, I am not surprised because when one fella drew his list of SE first eleven and filled it with all his tribes men, nobody raised a dust but if any other from other tribe did the same, this place go done explode.

The irony was the guy carry striker put for left back, right back put for winger....etc just to make sure he had all his tribes men in the team. Bhahahaha!

I am sure you and your cohorts felt good about it. Didn't you? hehehehehe!

comodo:
No Kayode, Ajagun, even Solanke. this is d work of Aloy Agu. This is tribalism, Rohr is a tribal bigot. He collects egunje.
No be my voice oh

Hahahaha! na whose voice?

Icon4s:
Aina, Iwobi, Ekong and Shehu, are back from injury and they are back straight into the team.

That was the point I was making and someone was saying Noah Bazee will play 3-4 games before the Libya game and so must be invited.

We should learn to make more feasible predictions please.

Face me. Are you scared? Hahahaha!

At least, out of two predictions, one clicked.

Humility017:
your hatred for nancho will not kill you....I just pray you survive it.

tell your tribal and slow poke players to tighten up and improve on themselves otherwise no call up for them.

Yes! Marca hatred for Nacho will kill Marca.... I just pray Marca and co survive it. Bhahahaha!

Humility017:
so pained...take heart bro...I guess you've read through the list to see that your favorite age grade players never made the list.

poor boi...one day you will get the privilege to draft the list yourself...may be in your fantsasy manager...then you can litter it with your tribal men...

Hypocrite! is that the answer to the questions?

Why were you pained when APC rigged the election in Osun state? Tribal bigot!

comodo:
No Solanke, Ajagun, Kayode.
Forgiveness right now

Hahahahahahaha!

Humility017:
to be honest with you...whenever he talks of Nigeria FA being corrupt and bla bla.
I pinch myself.... many a time people only critise systems they have no control over.

he is corrupt as well..... I don't have aortal of trust for his judgement.

Why were you crying APC rigged Osun state election if you don't have control over it?

Why didn't you shut your mouth?

Once you are favoured, no corruption but once it's against you, you cry blue murder. Hypocrites everywhere.

Humility017:
how many epl goals has solanke...?
and how many has nancho...?

solanke is only recognized as an age grade striker and nothing else.
not yet a full fledge international to merit nancho place in global football.
when solanke start to play real football...you can bring up this issue.

coming against players all because you wanna promote some average players from your tribe makes nonsense.....

Oga! Go and tell those who gave the verdicts they are promoting average players from their tribe.

I rest my case.

Joebie:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8_hhw3Aj54A

Wow! It has been completed. Ghana na Baba.

Humility017:
what is shehu and omeruo doing in this team?
and why is mikel not in the team?

So, Omeruo should not be called but Awaziem should be called, na?

I understand Shehu doesn't deserve to be called but Omeruo is justifiable.

Danielnino00:
Nigeria's squad

Goalkeepers: Francis Uzoho (Elche FC, Spain); Ikechukwu Ezenwa (Enyimba FC); Daniel Akpeyi (Chippa United, South Africa)

Is this the list? If it is, not bad at all.

edi287:
Why are you trolling man?? E don do ooo!!

Ok sir. Respect.

jihday:
but wait, tot the discuss was about Solanke how come the only name you've been mentioning is Nacho? you no get any point to back up your claim that Solanke is the best striker we never had? please you are a Nigerian I tot we are suppose to support our boys why are you shamelessly happy about Nacho's poor debut season at Leicester?

Here we go again. Lol

Don't think, find out first before you start baseless accusations.

It was about somebody claiming Sturridge is a rubbish player. Then, I asked, which SE striker will bench Sturridge? That's all.

But you all started calling Solanke.. Solanke Solanke as if he's hunting you in your dreams.

Why I am happy about Iheanacho poor what...?

I am just calling out some peeps here in remembrance of the assault and name calling when I simply told them that Iheanacho was poo last season. Here we are with the confirmation of my postulations. The verdict has been given. Abi na sin to talk true?

This is my little way of saying they were wrong and at the same time bigots. That's all.

Three Stats That Prove Huddersfield No-Nonsense Nigerian Midfielder Outshone Tottenham's World Cup Stars

Three Stats That Prove Huddersfield No-Nonsense Nigerian Midfielder Outshone Tottenham's World Cup Stars
Statistics provided by Whoscored have highlighted the fact that Huddersfield Town's Nigerian midfielder Philip Billing was one of the most influential players on the pitch despite his team losing 2-0 to Tottenham Hotspur in the Premier League on Saturday afternoon.

With the visitors lining up in a 3-4-3 formation, the Denmark U21 international came up against Spurs' World Cup stars Mousa Dembélé, Eric Dier, Danny Rose and Kieran Trippier in midfield, and outshone the quartet in three cumulative stats.

Billing completed the most tackles (seven) in the game staged at John Smith's Stadium, ahead of Rose (5), Trippier (3), Dier (2) and Dembélé (1).

The Huddersfield Town number eight was also the top interceptor with four interceptions made; Rose and Dier made two interceptions each, Dembele one and Trippier none.

If his two clearances are added to his total tackles and interceptions, he scored 13 in these three key stats, more than Trippier (9), Dier (, Rose (7) and Dembele (4).

Billing was promoted to Huddersfield Town first team in 2014 and helped the club gain promotion to the Premier League in 2017.

THOUSANDS OF AMBODE SUPPORTERS DEFY PARTY LEADERS, STAGE POLITICAL RALLY ON IKORODU ROAD
Source : http://www.eyesoflagos.com/2018/09/thousands-of-ambode-supporters-defy.html?m=1


Eyes Of Lagos reports gathered that , The entire stretch of Ikorodu road from Anthony to Maryland and other adjoining community roads were on lockdown earlier today, Sunday, September 30, 2018, as political supporters and loyalists of Governor Akinwunmi Ambode under the aegis of Ambode Mandate Support Group (AMSG) staged a political rally in the axis.

The supporters who came out in their hundreds, converged on the premises of the State Universal Basic Education Board (SUBEB) in Maryland, Lagos Mainland, and marched through Ikorodu Road to Gani Fawehinmi Freedom Park in Ojota, where they were joined by others who came from other communities on the Lagos Mainland.

At the gathering, the leaders of the group took turns to speak to the participants in the rally urging them to ensure Ambode emerge victorious in the primary in their respective wards.

Speaking at the rally, Director General of the Ambode Mandate Support Group (AMSG), Hon Hakeem Sulaimon, particularly declared no confidence in the State Executive of APC led by Tunde Balogun for openly exhibiting bias towards the Governor, saying the chairman committed faux pas when he participated at briefing where another governorship aspirant was purportedly endorsed by party leaders.

While tracing the root of the problem which the Governor had with some party leaders, Sulaimon said it was unfortunate that the same character who informed the Governor not to relate with party leaders immediately after the election was now the one playing on the intelligence of members not to support the Governor for re-election.



In addition, the rally was joined by popular Fuji musician, Abass Akande Obesere who sang praises of the Governor and took time to dish out folk music to the delight of the onlookers.

Speaking at the rally, a member of the Ambode Mandate Support Group (AMSG), Yusuf Azeez told InsideMainland that; “we are solidly behind our man Ambode. He is the going nowhere and would rule Lagos for another four years.

“The party leaders who are after going against his candidacy or want him to step down cannot influence all of us. We have taken a decision and we are ready to stand by it.”

Motorists, residents react

Motorist plying the Ojota end of Ikorodu road affected by the traffic gridlock caused by the rally condemned the exercise by the loyalists saying it was ill-conceived without the input of traffic managers who would have ensured free flow of traffic in the area.





Eyes Of Lagos gathered that, According to a commercial bus driver who gave his name as Agbana, the rally should have held in Ikoyi or an area where the leaders of the party would be directly affected. “Why did they come down here? Did they remember to hold a rally when there was fire at Olusosun for several days or when we complained of the bad portion on Ikorodu road?

“They should have visited Ikoyi, VGC, Lekki and other posh areas where the party leaders can also feel the effect of the rally.”

A resident of Ogudu, Simbiat Akinade while commenting said that “the group should have invited LASTMA guys to help in the rally. That would have gone a long way in ensure free flow of traffic than allowing innocent citizens spend productive time in traffic.”

This is the beauty of democracy. Let the best win the election.

elyte89:
Well,in as much as I don't want to wade into d iheanacho issue bin nominated as one of d worst player of season,I hereby urge d "pro IHEANACHO" camp to maintain patience wyle sir forgiveness,komekn and silent followers(sir fabyom ) of ighalo camp" make jest over d issues while it last,hopefully iheanacho comes out good dis season,am sure if he continues with his form at Leicester, d news will go stale ,its deir time,let dem use it very well cos if it were to b ighalo, same fate would av been meted out to dem

Hahahaha!

kellycute:
e pain am hahahahahha. Nacho don go World Cup and your boy Kayode never go. If you like shout from now till tomorrow.. nacho is still far better than your average solanke and kayode. Nacho Na regular and he dey balls this season. Jealousy will kee you there. Hooooohoooo ole ole thief thief!!! Make una hold am make he nor run ole ole ole. Hahah.anytime you see nacho dey shine your life go jus standstill.. Infact Na nacho shine go kee you there.

Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha!

See as em dey console himself.

charlesemeka85:
una get time dey respond to this tribalistic bigot for this forum. one who will champion for the inclusion of any player with a yoruba name to the supers eagles not considering if the player in question is better than those already in the team. wasn't he the same person who made us believe that olayinka is miles better than the trio of onyekuru,kalu and simon moses and how he is the best thing that will happen to the super eagles if given a chance, today where is olayinka?

iheanacho been rated as one of the worst strikers last season was because he couldn't replicate his form and the quality that he is known of immediately in the colors of leicester which is normal when a player joins a new team with different footballing tactics and formation. can solanke make leicester's bench? can solanke dislodge the likes of bony and dzeko and battle kun aguero for a starters shirt in a team of city's calibre in his first season as a professional footballer? na pple with this mofo's poor IQ dey even make me wan leave this forum cus sometimes it seems he reasons from his anus

Mumu talk. Where did I say Peter Olayinka is miles better than Onyekuru and Simon?

When did I say Peter Olayinka will be the best thing for SE if invited?

When i know Moses and Ahmed have filled up that spot!?

Oya! Show me where I said all those falsehood you put up there to blackmail and feel cool.

Let me help you...

charlesemeka85:
is olayinka better than isaac success,onyekuru,moses simon, samuel kalu? etebo's case is different to that of aluko because he is a part of the team already and rohr knows what he offers the team,also etebo is 22 while alukois approaching 30. ademola only trained with an assembled nigerian side which comprised of uk born nigerians years back and that doesn't put him on the mix.rohr personally approached him in german with a promise of picking him for the world cup but he declined. among those you mentioned its only ojo who have voiced his interest in playing fornigeria but was diplomatic about it. rohr have seen issac succes in close quarters but his fitness is was the major factor why he was left out after playing against senegal

This was exactly what I said. Where did you see me mention Peter is better than Onyekuru and Simon?

forgiveness:
Of course, Peter Olayinka is better than Samuel Kalu and as par with Onyekuru.

Isaac Success and Moses Simon are better.


Where did you get your information from that Rohr promised to take Ademola Lookman to the world Cup?

Onomah too is ready to play for Nigeria. Ask Komekn who sees these players personally.

Besides, I showed you facts to buttress my points.

Last season, Peter was far better than Samuel Kalu in the Belgium pro league. Fact

Last season, Peter was par with Onyekuru based on the stats on ground. Fact

Even Peter won his team player of the month twice and in addition, Peter, Agbo and Taiwo were named in Belgium league dream team of the season. Peter scored more goals and assists than Samuel Kalu last season, yet you want me to believe Samuel Kalu is better.

How can you be so bias and sentimental blinded towards facts like this?

See the snapshot. Below

BREAKING NEWS...... It's in the DNA of cankerrworm - kinda losers like Marca, L'Equipe's, British website etc to attack and show hatred towards our super Uno Iheanachonaldo by naming him or associating him with anything WORST or anything Iheanachonaldo, Nwakali etc......We will not take this......in ishi coconut Orubebe's voice.
