With the call up of Jamil and Semi, how many of Obuh's boys have been able to make it to the senior national team(the super eagles)?
Firstly, did Jamilu Collins ever play under John Obuh? I dont think so.
But Semi Ajayi featured at the 2013 Toulon Cup under him.

Now the question should be how many of John Obuh's boys have not played for the Super Eagles? smiley
Cos even in the current setting we have up to 8: Onazi, Omeruo, Musa, Shehu, Kayode, Ndidi, Simon, Agbo, and now when you add Semi Ajayi it becomes 9. Emmanuel Daniel got invited to camp but was not capped.

Those that have played in the past: Kingsley Madu, Uche Nwofor, Ramon Azeez, Michael Uchebo, Emem Uduok, Usman Mohammed, Aminu Umar, Stanley Okoro. And to mention some that have also made names but yet to get called up: Abdul Ajagun grin , Gbenga Arokoyo and Michael Olaitan.


He has contributed immensely to the discovery of talents in Nigeria.

Decent performance, loves the overlap. He has made a few interceptions as well. His team is down to 10 men.

He would be a good addition to the team.
Great then.

But Egbon, have you watched his highlights on youtube?

I am not sure winning on penalties is counted as a win. Sweden is ranked what?
Wining on penalty gives you a win. You get points for it. Sweden were ranked 24th While Colombia were on 16th.

don't mind darkelf. Nacho's own is suspect, but Ighalo deserves all the call ups.

If you put Ighalo and Iheanacho in any viewing centre in Nigeria today, they will beat up Ighalo before they will even notice Iheanacho.


Ighalo is the number one wasteman in that team. One of the biggest flops especially considering how old he is. Is it not shameful that he is being constantly compared to somebody that was in U17 when he started his professional career?

At every level Ighalo has played for the National team he has been USELESS. He has been a proven wasteman for ages, it is not today he started being a waste of space, Iheanacho at EVERY LEVEL of national football has trumped him

That is the ONLY FACT in all this talk
Chai, Ighalo can faint if he reads this comment. grin

You are an expert on FIFA rankings let me ask you England defeated Panama and Tunisia and lost to Belgium, Croatia and Belgium again, how exactly did their FIFA ranking increase the way it did?


OK relate that to 2010 when we actually beat Bosnia that was in No10 as at then, we beat them but it didn't even reflect what do you have to say? It's baffling that we are buying what they are selling to us
Are Tunisia and Panama the only countries they beat? Did they not beat Colombia and Sweden?

And to the bolded, you mean 2014. Matches won earn you points. We only won 1 match in 2014 but this English team won 4 matches! Is that not enough to push them far?

AIG07:
The Question we need to ask ourselves is this: When exactly is that FUTURE?.

We don de talk about this future since God knows when. But this future seems to be moving farther away.

Personally, with Rohr's recent callups, I don't see any future with the man at the helms. Cos if he continues like this, only God knows what will happen.

We had a very poor World Cup with the bulk of the blame on his table and yet the man has not shown any sign that he has learnt one or two things.

I was expecting us to continue building and restructuring the team based on the pre-world cup foundation to have a very strong team.

Prior to the world cup we discovered a new formation (the 3-5-2) which best suits our side and I expect us to continue building the team around it. But for the sake of having other options, like the 3-4-3, 4-2-3-1, 4-4-2,it is good to have players who can execute such formations. But filling the team with out and out strikers (Ighalo, Simy) has put such projects into jeopardy...

Ighalo over the years have shown repeatedly that he is not capable of leading our attack as a lone striker. Simy who has shown few glimpses in the little time he was given will be limited with the call of Ighalo. Ighalo's position should have been used to assess a new player(an attacking midfielder) that can help us solve our creative problems.

To cut things short, Rohr does not look like a coach to take us forward.
In as much as I saw 1 or 2 players I felt Rohr ought to have dropped going forward, I still feel it is a fair list.

Positives are that the 4 New players injected are young players. It means Rohr is developing a team that has a sustainable structure. Echiejile is being replaced by a younger player in Jamilu Collins, Moses is replaced by another younger player in Samuel Kalu. Kelechi Nwakali joins the Midfield in place of soon to retire Mikel and Semi Ajayi we all know is an up and coming talent.

I dont know what others think, but I am perfectly satisfied with the 4 Newbies included.

Talking about the future. Yes you are right, there has always been a future that keeps shifting. Which is why I ask TheSuperNerd about '' The New Dawn'' he said is not here yet that we are getting closer to. He is yet to give me a response till date. smiley

Team building takes time. The French Team that won the WC didnt just get there over-night. Same with the Belgian, Croatian and English teams of today.

Lets give Rohr a chance and see how he will build this team. These AFCON qualifiers will surely determine a lot of things.

But we'll try and reduce it as mush as possible. smiley

Actually all along I thought the coach actually did say it, as in credibly but I browsed now and there is no credible source whatsoever to back that up which makes a lot more sense because no coach would say that really.
Whether the coach actually said it or not is a different thing. But I saw that publication here on nairaland where he was quoted as saying it.

In a two man attack in a 3-5-2 I cannot wait to see Nacho-Kayode combo... The energy will be wicked! Or even a Musa-Kayode upfront... Or another three-pronged option of Nacho-Kayode-Onyekuru... Evil awaits!
I would rather want to see an Iheanacho-Onyekuru combo

Ighalo I know has been poor since the the preparation for the world cup commenced...
he has never impressed me one bit.

I remember his foolish play against Iceland...ball he would have passed to musa he selfishly missed it.
so when he missed that against Argentina I wasn't surprised....he just confirmed how clueless he is in front of goal.
