Maybe you watched your TV up side down.

N23M for the two plots

Ok

BascoVanVeli:
That could be a way of looking at it but i doubt that since they already have a feeder team. The coaching staff might want to work closer with him, this doesn't mean he is getting a regular shirt.

Don't you think the coaching team can also work close with him even if he is with the feeder team?

As reported by Dannycrusoe there is a new competition for feeder teams. Don't you think taking part in that competition, where he would likely see more game action, be more beneficial to him than taking part in just drills and no action for a boy who is not even 15yrs old yet?

For his age I feel he needs to learn and grow with his mates.

safarigirl:
I doubt anyone has had a better year as far as African football goes. He should win the BBC APOTY

Hmm... APOTY. Let be watching. You know CAF and politics. The francophone countries always dominate.

Name how many APOTY for the last at least 15yrs that are not from the francophone nations.

zicky:
I would want to believe he's talking of ogbonna kanu and junior Amuneke

Did those ones ever play for the Super Eagles?

I 100% agreed with his point. But he erroneously placed some players in the Same basket with some others.

BascoVanVeli:
I don't know about his age but i guess they feel he is ready to make the jump.

See, they are just being economical. They prefer to promote those small boys than to buy players from outside.

Sometimes when I read comment here,I laugh,any player making waves in abroad,we all will b yearning for his call up to d national team.d fact is,D man called Rohr knws what's doing.This is the 1st time I can beat my chest dt we have a first team,we all shld learn frm d past,we av invited so many untested players in d past like Bathlomew ogbeche(famous scissors kick)Ayodele makinwa,Kanu,amuneke,Utaka(brodas),dis gusy mentioned above contributed little or none to d development of d team,
Onyekuru,onauchi and odas,will av d time and proof their worth if need be,we can't just keep inviting evrybody and ulter d chemistry of the team.we need to be patient with Rohr based on his judgement inviting players to d national team,and if we check d trend,we tend to av a more stable under a foreign coach dan our so called local coaches wc really help d foreign coach to succeed dan d later.

You have made so much sense in your comment. But including Kanu, Amuneke and Utaka on that your list must be a slip of fingers.

Please replace them with players like Femi Opabunmi, Justice Christopher and Efe Sodje.

Danycrusoe:
I don't think dey do. but then I just recalled that the NLO1 has started n all the 20 teams in the NPFL have their feeders teams there so I think that's where they should v let him play for now

cc: Bascovanveli

BascoVanVeli:
Nazifi Yahaya has made his debut for Kano Pillars this term and MFM also have a 16 yr old on their bench inching closer. Players like Sokari and pyagbara got their debut at 16 or so.

We are talking about a kid who is barely 14.

Danycrusoe:
I don't think dey do. but then I just recalled that the NLO1 has started n all the 20 teams in the NPFL have their feeders teams there so I think that's where they should v let him play for now

That's just it.

He still needs some nurturing with his age mates.

That boy I am seeing should be between 13 and 14. I don't think he is even up to 15.

Npfl u15 promise tournament has started yielding results as ABS promotes their u15 captain Olasegun olakunle to the main team


ABS promote NPFL U15 stars, Olakunle, Okoromi to senior team

Published on Friday, 12 May 2017 14:31 Hits: 198

Abubakar Bukola Saraki (ABS) FC have announced the elevation to the main squad of two players from the youth team that recently won the Nigeria Professional Football League (NPFL) Under-15 Promises tournament. One other player from their youth squad and four other new players were also brought in to complete their mid-season transfer window activities.

The club's media disclosed that team's director of football, Alloy Chukwuemeka announced the development in Ilorin where he explained that the players have been signed based on merit to complement the effort of others at the club.

The duo of forward, Okoromi David and midfielder, Olusegun Olakunle were moved to the ABS main squad following their performance at the recently concluded junior league organised by the League Management Company (LMC).The third youth player, Ogbodo Chidi was however not in the squad that participated in the NPFL U-15 tournament.

Olakunle won the Most Valuable Player at the tournament and has been assigned jerseys number 37 while Okoromi will wear jersey number 38. ABS thus become the first club to integrate their youth player into the main squad after the tournament which only held for the first time.

Chukwuemeka said new players brought into the club from other clubs include Deemua Best, a midfielder who joined from Rivers United, Akinbo Oluwasegun from Ikorodu United, Orji Ejike from FC Abuja and Mudasir Nurudeen, a goalkeeper from Kaduna United.

All the players have been assigned jersey numbers with Best assigned number 20; Akinbo will wear number 23; Ejike is to wear 3 while goalkeeper Nurudeen will adorn jersey number 21.

Chukwuemeka explained that Nurudeen, a former Kaduna United goalkeeper was spotted during a Nigeria National League (NNL) match in Ilorin during the mid-season transfer window.

Does the club not have an U17 team?

Why promote the lad straight to the senior team?

Don't they know what career progression means?

Man City Insider – How Guardiola Destroyed The Confidence Of Iheanacho

https://owngoalnigeria.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/05/IMG_2892.jpg

Highly informed Manchester City insider Simon Bajkowski says Manchester City Nigerian forward Kelechi Iheanacho should leave the club permanently this summer.


Iheanacho has not featured regularly for City this season as manager Pep Guardiola prefers other strikers ahead of the Nigerian, who signed a new contract till the summer of 2021 nine months ago.


Bajkowski believes the manager played a role in stifling the 20 year old, who has been severally shut out of the matchday squads this season, and looks set to end the season with fewer starts and goals than last year, when many felt former manager Manuel Pellegrini ‎was holding him back.


“In January, his absence from squads was explained by saying City hadn’t created many chances “for this kind of player”, he wrote in his column.


“In short, Guardiola doesn’t value what the 20-year-old can offer, Yaya Toure has forced his way back into the team, Aleks Kolarov and Jesus Navas have surprised in new positions and Fernandinho has popped up in most areas of the pitch.


“That has not happened with Iheanacho despite absences for Aguero and Jesus, which suggests a permanent move would be better for him than a loan.

Better for the player to take his talent elsewhere to a team that does suit his playing style. A clinical finisher, Iheanacho should not have a problem finding a top team”.

Exactly!

Happy Birthday to our one and only eye on NPFL and NNL. Happy Birthday Dannycrusoe.

Guardiola jokes: Iheanacho will get more game time with new manager

Manchester City manager Pep Guardiola has joked Kelechi Iheanacho will need a new coach if he wanted more game time at the club, according to media reports.

The Manchester Evening News reported Guardiola made this joke earlier this season.

The report further stated the City boss does not rate the Nigeria striker and it would be best if he quit The Ittihad permanently and not go out on loan next season.

“Even without factoring in new additions that the transfer market can provide, it is hard to see how a year at another club could do any more to convince Guardiola than what he has shown in training for the last year,” reported the Manchester Evening News.

“Better for the player to take his talent elsewhere to a team that does suit his playing style.

“A clinical finisher, Iheanacho should not have a problem finding that – German high-flyers Hoffenheim are one of the clubs said to be interested that could offer him Champions League football next season.

“For City’s part, they should make a handsome profit on a player who appeared on their 2014 tour and bolster their funds for what is expected to be another busy and expensive transfer window.

“It will be a shame if Iheanacho does leave, but it is surely best for all parties.”

Yes, best for all parties including Nigeria.

What do Secondary school children need protection from



Why won't there be maniacs and sycophants among them children whose brain are yet to develop and balls are yet to drop


I think whoever they initiated has paid to become a cultists in other words they are being hustled


Back when cultists were a pride and job you need a certain achievements to belong not the type where okada riders, primary school students illiterates and all sorts of nuisances are allowed to join

I don't think they are secondary school students. They used the school compound for the initiation exercise.

Goaaal Alexis.

Joebie:
No! we don't cry. We simply move on. Do you personally have a big ego? Rejection is a part of life.
Some of these players never had their Nigerian parent in their lives while growing up. Some of them will never feel Nigerian unless you give them a course to. Showing interest in them is a first step. They may take interest and start to look at Nigeria's football history, that's if their parents never played an active role in this regard while they were growing up. Welcoming them to the SE family is another. We have to treat situations differently. We can't always apply a general rule. So do you just dock just because you are scared of rejection, and miss a chance to land a player that would have represented Nigeria?

Sir, following your rule, we will not have the likes of Ola Aina in our fold now. I can still mention some others that were courted before they agreed.

Please we only need players who will be committed and patriotic.
Any player who doesn't chose Nigeria just let him be.

Beg them to play and we'll continue to beg them to play.

And please keep the discussion civil if you want me to continue in this discussion.

Yes some of us here are still crying over Alaba. They are still yet to move on.

Ac Milan - Deportivo 2004

At what stage and what was the score?

Joebie:
Thank you.

We need to improve football in the grassroots and our domestic league. But we also need to make provision for special talents groomed abroad.
Winning them over is a win for us. If i'm getting Icon4s clearly, he is saying these special players in question need to first show the interest. Oga i no agree for that one oh. One thing I will never subscribe to is that there is only one way you should catch a fish in the midst of many ways. The idea of patriotism here is not realistic since many of these lads have never even visited Nigeria. Let's be realistic, we will need to do some convincing in some cases.

What if you approach them and they are still not interested? That is what I am talking about.

Look at Gabby Agbonlahon, Nedum Onuoha, Sydney Sam, Patrick Owomoyela, Ugochukwu Ehiogu, . If they chose their country of birth what do we do? Continue to cry?

This is the first UCL season that I have seen that even with a 4-0 first leg win you may still crash out.

ATL 2:0 RMA (2:3) in less than 15mins!

Joebie:
good but we can't afford to lose our very best to other nations. the fact is Rohr will not be our coach 8 years from now. It's not all about Rohr.
The NFF have been playing a part in this as well. We cannot wait for white man to plan our future for us.

Your last sentence: but you wait for the white man to groom those players and then you want to harvest the best of them to your country.

Joebie:
your argument is appalling. Developing our youth system is totally another matter.
Every Nigerian born at home or abroad is a Nigerian. And we would need all Nigerians to improve be it in sports or otherwise. Hence we must always go for our best. Should we have a Nigerian player who goes abroad and becomes the best in another country, are you saying that country will never offer him their passport or ask him to represent them? Your argument is very misplaced especially in the current world we live in. People who have anything against foreign born Nigerians are delusional. I don't see how this stops you from developing your own. unbelievable.

Rohr will invite any Nigerian that will add value whether Foreign born or Nigerian born.

Humility017:
Sir...you forget to mention that...the years gap between when you last saw him play and now...tells much difference for a player's development.
you shouldn't judge him by his performance some years...ago
I really think the lad has developed a lot...
judging by how he is highly rated by the club management even the most difficult to pleased coach(mouriho) regard him and hope he makes his debut someday.
I will advise...for the lad to be watch closely..
he should be one for the future

That is it. Watch closely. And if he is willing to pledge allegiance to Nigeria we give him the opportunity if the need arises.

Humility017:
Olosunde is not an English born...he is an American citizen

Who doesn't know Olusunde's featured for USA, his Country of birth, at the 2015 U17?

I was referring in general terms to the English born Nigerian players.

Joebie:
He should be called to SE.. haha..

it's a very innocent question oh.. don't even take it there.

I hear you.

Thank God we saw him play at the 2015 U17 if not by now we for no hear word about that one again.

Joebie:
We need to think about now and the future. We cannot afford to lose special players to England. This does not in anyway distract us from qualification.

You want to secure all the special English grown Nigerian players?

See, every year talented young Anglo-Nigerian players will be springing up. So also are Nigerian youth internationals. We can only invite those that fit into the team's program now and going forward.

Besides, you want to snatch all the special English born players why can't you develop your own? You want to start harvesting yams from another man's farm when you also have the yam seedlings and fertile land to cultivate and harvest yours.
