BAYERN Munich youngster, David Alaba, says he should have been playing representative football for Nigeria but was denied by stringent eligibility rule by football officials in the country.

Alaba, whose father is Nigerian and of Filipino mother, plays for Austrian national team but only after he has been turned down by Nigeria.
The defender said he actually planned to join Nigeria's cadet team which won the 2007 FIFA World Youth Championship at South Korea but words reached him of his ineligibilty.

''I wanted to play for Nigeria but I must confess that there was no formal approach for me. A scout actually discussed that with me. I was excited because of my dad, he was a fan of Sunday Oliseh when Oliseh played for FC Koln. As a kid, I loved to watch Victor Agali in the jersey of Hansa Rostock,'' he told an Austrian news medium.

However, Alaba was shocked when told by the scout that Nigeria had plans mainly for its home-grown talents.
'' I got the information that Nigeria will only consider those who were in the country perhaps because of travelling logistics and that is the end of that."

Mr Southgate,

They say Common sense isnt common.
I was going to write a long epistle
on how ur comment was both rude
and slightly disappointing,
given the fact that i have never insulted
or ridiculed u on this thread...

but then i thought abt how pointless it would be given how you are the most sound minded and unbiased and unsentimental moniker in your own eyes....

well, lady x made a comment abt ex chelsea players flopping...u responded by calling non chelsea players..i drew ur attention to the comment, and you decided to go low...very low....

Well abt nepa...the assumption that i live in Nigeria...or dat i live in an area wer power is a challenge is just comical.

Bros, I have not seen your nomination. Please u still have 2hrs to do so

Truidstar:
I nominate @supernerd.

TheGoodJoe:
I do not know if they can work together because of clash of ideas. Amunike is a pure Barcelona man and his style relies strictly on that high possession system.

I think Finidi has his own ideas and should be drafted to handle the next U20 team.

I feel Amunike's system is very ideal for developing players but I do not know if Finidi's ideology will fit in.

Emma with his Barca style still worked under Manu successfully. My fear is Finidi does not have that kind of experience to work alone with the U20 team.

Manu worked under Tella, Amuneke worked under Manu. Ugbade has also been around as an assistant, but i don't know his level of input into the team. Handing Finidi, who has not even coached any local team, the U20 job is a big risk. I just feel he should work as an assistant and get a hang of the Nigerian Youths system first before being appointed as a head coach.

TheGoodJoe:
I agree with you on Amunike. I hope he is offered the job for the next set. Giving ample time to conduct a thorough screening process, even more comprehensive than what we have had.

It falls on Pinnick and his crew to right this grave error they made this time. We need to take the U17 very seriously and not tamper with its winning methods.

Emma is good enough for the job. Finidi should work with him to get his first baptism of our youths system.

ChrisKels:
U and who had the faith? Me and my ilks who see and accept things for what they truly are, never believed in the team Bkus we saw the handwriting early enough on the wall and chose to stand our ground by not getting deluded in the name of patriotism.


The selection was far from being fair and they were lucky to get this far. The team was crap

Oga abeg stay one place.

I doubt if there was anyone here who didn't criticize the team but even at that some of us chosed to stay positive. I Know you have been waiting for a day like this that you come here and start shouting "I said it, I said it". Does this make you feel better now since after the Super Eagles broke your heart?

Even despite the early exit of the team i chose to stay positive concerning the progress of some of those players.

Nothing we never see for this game.

TheSuperNerd:
I had same fears too but the patriotic me just wanted to support the team and stay with them as far as they can go. I too had my doubts. I knew they would not go close to the title.

Same here bro.

It is well. We just have to keep supporting our teams.

We had faith in the team even though we were not seeing the kind of Sparks we saw from the previous teams.

Well, it is not over yet. We can only hope and wish some of the boys can go ahead and do greater things.

I couldn't watch the full game due to some other engagements.

talk2tosep:
Me I will never fly any Nigerian airline..

Then you are not ready for air travels.

Erediauwa:
Good to know that there's no Nigerian player in the list.....


That was how they overhyped one grandfather called Stanley Okoro and even tagged him the "Nigerian Messi" at the tournament held in Nigeria 2009....

But the old man is somewhere in Ngwa road opening bail of Okrika.


How about that T.B Joshua boy called Emmanuel, the lanky Macculey Chrisantus and Oseni?

No where to be found I guess.

You know, that was the only U17 WC Nigeria ever took part in. Continue living in that past.

Can you guys just let this issue rest for once.

This is the official thread of the Super Eagles of NIGERIA not some ethnic debate group.

If you want to have your ethnic or tribal arguments, please feel free to create your own thread and have fun there.

We are tired abeg!

Captainstephen, solonnachi, Certitude, KevinDein, semiife, Zuchyblinks, opes, Friday03. Have you guys sent in your nominations. If not please do.

The Netherlands team I saw against Japan, Senegal and The USA are a highly attacking team. They usually dominate play and take the game to their opponents.

Again Manu needs to really work on that defense and attack. At this stage, we can't be too loose at the back and too wasteful up-front.

Una no dey tire for this una tribal talks?

If countries from Groups B, C, D, F emerge as best losers which I forsee, then our Eaglet will meet Netherlands in the 2nd round.

It is Nigeria Vs 3ACD.
From the way it is now it likely going to be Nigeria Vs Chile. Except if New Zealand miraculously qualifies.
