My man you are spot on on the pics.

Ejide na fat guy right from Gabros in NPFL.

Ejide I knew then(2001)was taller than me(6ft 1)and very huge just like late Winfred Agbonibare

safarigirl:
they might as well not be organizing the competition. Honestly, the publicity is woeful

There is a delusional support for players based on l don't know what but it's not rational ot objective.

Nwakali has been dropping like lead in water from Eredivisie, to lower Dutch league then to add insult to injury to Porto B and struggled to get into the team played 16 games.

The Eredivisie is ranked below the Turkish league and the Portuguese B is below Arsenal youth team in quality. It's not prophecy he will never play for Arsenal.

Too many people making projections on past youthful glories in football. How many years ago. This guy has had three seasons of opportunity and has comprehensively FAILED. That's the bitter truth.

If Aribo had had his opportunities he will be playing in the EPL. Meanwhile that's not too far off for Aribo he fits the profile he had the tenacity, Physicality, Determination, and Ruggedness mixed with goal scoring and technicality for the EPL. He will be a quality addition to the SE.

Meanwhile instead of Nwakali to settle down and focus on reigniting his career, l guess the long contract he signed with Arsenal has made him loose hus way. He will be on at least £5-8k a week maybe more.

Total bogusness if you had heard of Ngolo Kante at 20 when he was in league 50 you would have called him a failure no matter what he drove.

forgiveness:
Who are the 'who' and 'everyone' if not you and the few from the same region and the pretender?

Stop hidden behind who are everyone because you don shiiit all over the place.

Do you want me to expose you the INITIATOR OF BIGOTRY?

TheSuperNerd:
They should wait for Next season... Ndidi for 2019/2020 belongs to the EPL. He needs to add that "extra thing" I am looking for to his game...So make ATM hold on...

forgiveness:
You are the initiator of name checking and tribalism here. This can be confirmed with numerous verifiable facts.

See your post as at 2016 where you accused one of tribalism just because one clamoured for players who were MORE THAN qualified to be called as at that time.

Performance has never been your SIU measurement for players selection but the PLACE where a player comes from. And you are VERY MUCH SATISFIED AS long as they come from YOUR REGION. Hypocrite!

The same YOU will accuse the Mr President for TRIBALISM because he is appointing INCOMPETENT folks but will say someone is not happy when he accuses AGU for TRIBALISM because he keeps calling INCOMPETENT FOLKS into the National team.

Can you see you lack objectively and basic reasoning?

You are the epitome of bigotry and hypocrisy.

forgiveness:
Professor Bigotry. We know you are the founding father of tribal reasoning on this thread or should I say in this group.

Do you want me to expose you again?

andrew444:
With all due respect there is nothing wrong in defending nwakaeme and there is nothing tribal there

This is football okay ,I didn't expect this from someone like you ,you are being called elder here but sorry sir you didn't just act like one

I am the least person you will see ranting over a player but you didn't use the right words here ,If you have quarrel against someone why not quote the person directly than throw a jibe indirectly ,did you even see anyone fighting that nwakaeme wasn't called up ?

Thank you

Humility017:
I have noticed it...even if an Angel was to come draft the super eagles...list
forgiveness will always complain...because he always feel his tribal men are short changed.
I don't know why an adult in the 21st century will have such insecurities....

forgiveness:
What is tribal reasoning?

See this tribalist talking about tribal reasoning.

Where you not the one that brought tribalism and tribal reasoning to this thread, beginning from the last Olympic thread?

Do you want me to expose you once again?

You know you can never deceive me because I already know who you are.

If you are given the chance to be in the position of a coach, I know what to expect from a bigot like you.

forgiveness:
So, if he wins Turkish highest goal scorer and best player, he should not be invited?

jihday:
Do you know coaches only need few min to know a player they want? Do you also know that Icon4s has stated several times that he's a trained coach even if he doesn't practice so I'm inclined to believe he's talking as a professional and not as an emotional fan

BascoVanVeli:
Not all the time. That is why they are called flashes of brilliance because they are not common.

I think they state of that pitch was way worse than the Keshi stadium. Their pitch was worn out and clumps of grass kept coming off. Asaba pitch is still fresh and it is just the make of the thing that brings issues.

forgiveness:
It's not because he doesn't have it as a winger, he doesn't deserve a call but because there are better wingers than him, he can't make the team.

charlesemeka85:
The guy was too robotic against Algeria. Very stiff with no flair or dangerous runs. We should concentrate on yourger players abeg.nwakaeme and uduak na old men.

charlesemeka85:
So pple re clamouring for the invitation of Anthony nwakaeme when we have alot of untested younger talents? Nawaooo oo

andrew444:
Not that i even want eduok to be invited, he has gone to croatia to make it worst

After just one game you can judge a player? Just because he is not your favorite player you want to judge him with one game abi? if so ighalo will not be in the national team

Sorry sir i wont take you serious because of that

Thank you

BascoVanVeli:
In his defence that pitch was poor on the day. None of our forwards got adjusted that night

forgiveness:
Nwakaeme is not a striker. I don't know why the national team invited him and played in that position.

andrew444:
If you want Akpom and you dont want Nwakaeme or eduok then you are bias, just only one bad game and dude was written of, can you imagine

Yes so many forwards performed better than him last season and they shouldnt be ignored

Danycrusoe:
The very first set of the Golden Eaglets. Very young they are, you can't call dese overage even without mri

do4luv14:
what about JOE ZACCALE
shouldnt he be draft to the team?

Nigeria U17 Coach Manu Garba Clears The Air On Invitation Of West Ham Goalkeeper Jinadu


Coach of the U17 team of Nigeria Manu Garba has responded to reports about the invitation of young West Ham goalkeeper Daniel Jinadu to the camp of the Nigerian team ahead of their campaign at the World Youth Championship.

Jinadu according to several reports has been called to the Nigeria U17 team after pledging his allegiance to Nigeria who are searching for options in goal for the team ahead of the World Youth Championship.

Speaking to Owngoalnigeria.com from his base in Gombe, the coach ‎admitted that the team need more options in goal same as in every position even though he is satisfied with the goalkeepers at his disposal now.

” We have some talented goalkeepers in the team meaning anybody coming into the team has to be better than the options we have at the moment. It’s the same for every position “, Garba told Owngoalnigeria.com.

Speaking specifically on Jinadu, the coach explained that no formal invitation was sent to the goalkeeper from his coaching crew but said the shot stopper is free to come to camp and try out with the other lads for a spot.


” We didn’t invite him (Jinadu) formally ‎but our doors are always open. Normally people approach either my technical crew or the Nigeria Football Federation ( NFF) and recommend players. Through that means we have gotten some boys.

” To be fair, we’ve already played two tournaments with these set of players and they are going to form the bulk of the team but new players are welcome particularly if they are better than the ones we have”.

When you are in big club with multiple stars you find out there is less pressure on you.

That's both case with Iwobi in Arsenal very little pressure and not too much expectation.

But right now all eyes are in him in Everton with huge expectations from Manager and fans. It's like out of the small simmering frying pan and into the FIRE.

He has to develop mental resilience he is not with the comfort of family and familiar faces in London.

It's a big CHALLENGE but whatever happens he is laughing all the way to the Bank for the next 4/5 years.

jihday:
Do you know that Iwobi's 40mill is the highest transfer fee arsenal have received for a player? He broke the previous record of 38mill Barça played for Overmars.
He also holds the highest profit margin since Anelka who was bought for 500k and sold for about 22.5mill a season later. Iwobi bought for 0 pounds and sold for 40mill

Humility017:
I have always have deep hatred for arsenal,man city and berca at a time arsenal own was x2 of the others...

I start loving them...small and taking interest in their matches when iwobi came to limelight...and man city when Nacho was there...
with the way it is now... I hate both clubs and wish they finish 7th and 8th respectively in the EPL especially arsenal... except we get one of those saka and co to play for the super eagles...but for now...

I pray they loose well....
