You are right on point.

Good decision from Ideye if true. I wish him a career rebirth.

Super Eagles Striker Brown Ideye Joins La-Liga Side On Loan From Tiajin Teda

Brown Ideye has left Chinese side Tiajin Teda for Spanish La-Liga outfit Alaves on a season long loan deal, bringing a temporary halt to his adventure in the Far East.

Ideye passed a routine medical yesterday with the La-Liga side to beat the deadline for European transfers but some documents are yet to arrive from the Chinese side, hence the reason why his move has not been made official.

The 28 year old moved to Tiajin Teda in February, but what was supposed to be a dream financial move turned out into a nightmare after a row with the coach lead to his demotion to the reserves.

His spot as a foreign player in the squad was given to Ghanaian forward Frank Acheampong who joined on loan from Belgium side Anderlecht, leaving the Nigerian with no choice than to leave.

In the past he has represented Sochaux, Dynamo Kiev, West Brom and Olympiakos from where he moved to China, and he will be hoping his move to Alaves helps him remain in the plans of the national team coach of Nigeria Gernot Rohr.

Waooooh! This is cool.

Any striker wey no score goals well, must not dream of going to the world cup.


Now, we have two strikers in LA Liga (Kayode and Ideye), coupled with 3 in EPL (Kelechi, Abraham & Dominic), 2 in Bundusliga(Noah & Osimhen), 2 in Serie A (Sadiq & Simon) 3 in Belgium pro league (Onyekuru, Awoniyi & Olayinka), 3 in Chinko league (Ighalo, Ujah & Martins) in other leagues.

Any one wey score 15 goals and about must be considered.

It is not the journalist. It is a member of the coaching crew or a player how is a friend to one of the journalists. More like phone gist.

Make dem limit the gists among themselves but away from public consumption. Abeg!

We never hear anything from Cameroon till date.

Joebie:
Aluko also plays as an AM. Abi who u want make he bench for attack? Lol

Abi what's his one and only role smarty?

Aluko can play multiple roles. Ask Google, na.

Besides, list the AM we get first, make I see whether em go fit bench any.

No secret there. The training was an open door section. I saw some clips of the work out.

But the article said close door training, na.

‎Aaron Samuel Disappoints In Eagles Close Door Session, Ighalo Shines, Ogu Impressive

Details of the Super Eagles close door session which took place yesterday at the venue of their game against Cameroon has been leaked to Owngoalnigeria.com .

The session started with the usual warm up drills before the coach started technical and tactical drills with the players who are expected to start in tomorrow’s World Cup 2018 Qualifiers clash.

Owngoalnigeria.com won’t be revealing the various aspect of the drills rather we will focus on the performance of the players when the coach divided them into two groups for a small game.

Chanchung Yatai’s forward Odion Ighalo impressed with his finishing and overall play. The former Watford man looked very fit during the course of the training drill and also sharp in the box.

John Ogu was another player who put in a good shift during the session, as he covered lots of grounds, won possession at ease and also came out top in aerial duels not forgetting his fine ball distribution as well.

The battle for starting shirts made the session very competitive, but one player who did his chances a whole lot of no good was CSKA Moscow forward Aaron Samuel.

Samuel was lethargic, heavy and slow in attack for his team, he also gave away possession easily under pressure and overall looked a shadow of the player who once madeSudan looked ordinary in one of the first set of games he played for Nigeria.

http://owngoalnigeria.com/2017/08/31/aaron-samuel-disappoints-in-eagles-close-door-session-ighalo-shines-ogu-impressive/


Ogu keeps “impressing” during drills and yet he doesn't get to start, so what is the essence of drills then? is it not to determine those that are best fit to prosecute the game?

What is the rational behind the call of Samuel instead of Kayode if he is not good enough?

The coach blind before?

Leaked – Rohr Drops Leicester City Star Iheanacho, Etebo From Super Eagles Starting XI

Kelechi Iheanacho is the major casualty in the starting line up of the Super Eagles for today’s World Cup 2018 Qualifiers tie against Cameroon in Uyo, Owngoalnigeria.com can exclusively reveal.

Leaks gathered by Owngoalnigeria.com from their final training session can confirm coach Gernot Rohr has settled for a front three of Moses Simon, Odion Ighalo and Victor Moses.

The trio were the attackers the manager spent time with in yesterday’s close door session with emphasis on exploiting the apparent lack of pace in the defence of Cameroon.

Oghenekaro Etebo was also not in the squad that did tactical drills with the coach as vice captain Ogenyi Onazi alongside captain John Obi Mikel are expected to be in the midfield with Wilfred Ndidi.

Here is how they lined up in yesterday’s close door session, which was their final tune up for today’s clash ‎against Cameroon.

Ikechukwu Ezenwa (GK)

Shehu Abdullahi

Elderson Echiejile


William Troost-Ekong

Leon Balogun

Wilfred Ndidi

John Obi Mikel

Ogenyi Onazi

Moses Simon

Joebie:
With the likely return of J.Obi, we don't NEED Aluko. Make una stop to use that word -- need

Do they play the same role?

komekn:
J

Ha ha Lol

But I've been accused of being an British born lost Nigerian that only likes and supports everything English. A kind of coconut and Uncle Tom.

So you can't be both. If I'm called a tribalist them thats a step up.

By the way I also speak Ibo and a working knowledge of another Nigerian language.

Hahahahahah! Na real promotion. I will be here to congratulate you on that day of honor.

Hello lady and gentlemen.

Oga forgiveness and his buhahahaha tho.


I don't understand all this settling things of Ruben, agbim, etc.

I don't know what make you guys to think they bought their place with money. Sometimes mere preferences of coaches plays a role.


And this Akuko,, Akuko,, aluko
He's good no doubt but at the moment, he's not exceptional. The mindset of "because he no settle" is uncalled for. The guy is not too good



By the way,,,, we re winning Cameroun Home and Away

Ha! Wetin I kwa?

Make una no dey reveal our card ooo.

chrisooblog:
read my post again are you saying he was undeserving of a call up when he was invited because according to you his prime was between 12-14 was it not 2014 we played that friendly against mexico?

The question is, why was he ignored for 3 years before he was called and when he was called once, why did the coach benched him until the 71 minutes?

In 2014, we know Imoh mind don dey go Qatar.

chrisooblog:
master of shifting goal posts so you are saying we invited a player who was not in form and so didn't deserve his call up hmm very interesting

Read my comment carefully and take note of the @bolded, then tell me how the goalpost take change.

forgiveness:
Very painful he was never given a chance in his prime.

I remember how some people here shut my mouth because of this lad.

ProfOrlando:
Baba said he has headache, maybe he just read the news that Chelsea has almost landed zappacosta

Baba said he has headache, maybe he just read the news that Chelsea has almost landed zappacosta :-D

Hahahahahah! Na fear cash am.

komekn:
I admire your optimism.

Tega is on loan at Villa, not really good enough to force his way into the first team at the moment. In addition he is player I have watched since he was 15/16 both in training and in live matches to the current stage he is in. Currently, he is not better than Etebo,he is a work in progress but he is moving up. As they are both Uhrobo sons i cannot be accused of tribalism LOL.

However, the other Tega is looking extra sharp and a true premiership striker with Swansea.

Well, from what I have seen and my past experience, I will not wait until he proves himself good enough for the Super Eagles before I advise we cap him because I know he's good enough.

You better fear fear people here because if you continue to mention names similar to Uhrobo, bros, you don turn tribalist be that sharp sharp.

TheGoodJoe:
I am not interested in anyone who does not want to play for us. That is like Long-Drinking for Messi. If they do not want to play for us, wish them good luck and move on. Stop acting like a guy dumped by a check and still begging for her love. That is disgusting. I Yama.

We need regular high profile Youth friendlies from U15-U23 to keep unearthing talents who are devoted to the Nigerian flag.

Your values, norms, philosophy etc should not necessarily connote mine as unnecessary and myopic, being that, we are from different backgrounds.

I insist we go for dem until the last minute.

chrisooblog:
hmmm forgiveness falsely exaggerating as usual. never given a chance egbon please who played in this friendly before the world cup? ghost worker abi? https://www.11v11.com/matches/mexico-v-nigeria-05-march-2014-308975/

I said 'in his prime.'

Abu, 2014 be em prime?

Even d antic wey Keshi dey do na to call players e no put 4 bench until game nearly wan finish before em go play am.

With all em form from 2012 - 2014 (wey don dey die), how many times Keshi call am before dis match? Just once.

How many minutes em gi-am play? Less than 20 minutes. Chai! And you think say I dey lie?

Joebie:
Lol goal post don shift. Despite nobody from his side of the country in the NFF and as coach Olanare got called up from china..what about Michael babatunde? Hahahaha . EHaha

Hahahahahah! You wan make I open another....?

We know it was centuries after Keshi became the coach Aaron Samuel got a look.

However, he was also brought into the fold in an arrangee manner.

Make we leave stori for another day.

When last did Austin Ejide played a competitive match? 2015 but some people still dey mention em name 4 here.

Dele Aiyenugba is far better dan Ikechuckwu Ezenwa, why? Because 2 seasons ago, he helped his team to win the Isreali 2 division league but our goalkeeper coaches think say na fluke.

Danielnino00:
You can't place all the blame on our football administrators na.. some of these players just don't feel any connection to Nigeria hence their decision to snub us. Its a matter or choice.

Na dem fault because they are not organized and no better representative to approach these lads, I suppose.

Dem get connection wella. Ask Komekn. He will tell you.

Lucque:
Abraham said he wanted to be part of England's golden generation.https://www.nigerianews360.com/tammy-abraham-tells-rohr-i-want-to-be-part-of-england-golden-generation/ so I dunno y we still look in his direction,he definitely won't look back at us unless england dumps him...

Na shakara.

Even if he verbal pledged to play for England, we still need to go the England way by persuading him to play for us in the last minute as it was done by England as regard Alex Iwobi.

Humility017:
you're right....
keshi came to believe that he can turn any rockie into a super star.....@ the confederations cup he filled the list with players he wanna market to European clubs....

the[b] likes of imoh ezekiel were sidelined [/b]

Very painful he was never given a chance in his prime.

I remember how some people here shut my mouth because of this lad.

Joebie:
Daniel Amokachi could have been quoted out of context. Let's not forget he was an assistant to the late Stephen Keshi, who I personally suspected of underhand deals. Did Aluko pay to get his first call up? Has Aluko remained in the limelight all this while? we can only have 23 men or so in SE at every point in time. It's hard to set ONE standard as regards who should be in the team. Coaches have different standards. I remember Oliseh's policy of no out field players who do not play in the first tier. Let's not try to make it seem like it's solely an NFF issue. The coaches we've had over the years have fought to act without interferences from the NFF. Corruption is part of our system. But the problem we have here is that we do not have many players playing in big clubs in Europe -- indisputable stars -- so there are many grey areas when our coaches make decisions. Anyone can in fact feel hard done by.. need I mention free agent Nosa Igiebor?

What we have here is a country where everyone feels marginalized and can give you examples to buttress their claim.

Stephen Keshi was pressured and forced to invite Aluko to the national team team after his sublime performance for Rangers week in week out, and when he eventually brought em, he didn't deem it fit to dress him for the match day game, instead, he played Uzoenyi and kept Oduamadi on the bench.

In short, he never wanted Aluko in the team when you see Keshi's antics at play.

Which of these two was ever in limelight, not to talk of remain in limelight?

Den I was just monitoring his kurukere moves with one corner of my eyes.

komekn:
He was in Hearts in Scottish premiership played a few games was so bad the benched him for a year. Then released him with a year left on his contract this year. I am dumbfounded as he is supposedly only 24 at least officially.

I know because I followed his progress with Heart but unfortunately the fans don't like him.

I think he went to a wrong club because he was doing his previous club before he came to Hearts.

Maybe age has caught up with him?

komekn:
Tega is improving day by day his movements and reading of the game is on an upward spiral. Even his link up play is very intelligent for one so young.

I will be honest I really didn't think he could get this good so quick. I have been watching him since he was 15/16 then consider his age, a teenager. If he scores 20 goals at the end of the season his value will hit the range of over £50million.

Sometimes, I just wonder what could be the ultimate goal of our footballing administrators.

Is it winning the world cup or just chop I chop that they become so blind so tey all the better players dey allude us?

For our very eyes David Alaba, Dennis Aogo, Ross Barkley, Adebayo, Dele Alli, Angelo Ogbonna and recently Manual Akanji waka commot for our very eyes. Why?

If we put some of these boys on our current list, no bi to dey dream World cup trophy?

Now, very soon we go lose Dominic Solanke, Josh Onomah, Abraham, Jordan Torunarigha, Uduokhai Felix, Ademola-lookman Sheyi Ojo etcetera because dem no pay rite to any chop I chop fellow.

These boys are very very good but our Oga at the top thinks otherwise.

I am not saying we we should trow-way all our boys but haba these boys are good.

Anyway, make we face Cameroon first before I begin yan as usual.

komekn:
Ask Daniel Amokachi and his NFF arrangee men why Sone Aluko has been excluded from the SE.

Hahahahahah! Na really arrangee men!

Humility017:
I will advice the nff do another UK camping....
just like the get together recently where Aina, Chuba and co....get to train wit the SE....early next year...
during one of the international break...by so doing we will likely get some of them...get to train and play wit the SE....

and then get possibly some of them ..in our hook...

I think dat is the best thing to do next in order to lure the good ones to play for us and I believe that our qualication to the world cup will almost play a major part in tempting them to play for us.



Recently, Onomah is doing wonders in his club and if he continues, o boi the boy become another Dele Alli.

He's too good to be ignored.

Honestly, Onomah can bench Etebor or Alex Iwobi in the AMF role. You can take that to the bank.

We need to approach Ademola-lookman now before it's too late.

I hope Abraham soft pedal in his goal pursuit else England will cast their covetous preying eyes on him.


Once, we get any of these players that won the U20 World Cup then I am definitely sure Dominic Solanke will realise he is the only one dreaming of England golden era.
