First of all, that’s 5 bucks not $4.

Secondly, that argument is Black man’s mentality. I mean, even if I have the money, why would I wanna waste 5 bucks when I can watch the game for free?

FYI - I spend more than $200 per month on my cable and Internet.

Seriously, what is about Nigeria that everything about tend to go south. And I mean, everything!

I have these streaming apps on my phone that usually streams practically every live football game in HD, including several African qualifiers, but I am yet to see them carry any games involving Nigeria!

Today for instance, they are scheduled to carry the following African qualifiers:
Malawi vs Cameron - currently streaming
Cape Verde Island vs CAR
CIV vs Mozambique
Plus all the Euro qualifiers. But the only game that seems to be missing is Nigeria vs Liberia. And this has always been the pattern. You’d find practically every other games except the Naija games�

At his prime, Ahmed Musa was a great player but not any more. He’s way past his prime and doesn’t deserve invite on current form.

And you can say the same thing for Shehu. They are just in the team for the “federal character “.


O pari

zoboizee:
One thing we usually forget is that Musa is a good player and so is Shehu. Our current wingers will never get to Musa's past level cum goal scoring abilities till the day they retire from football. Be it Chukwueze, Ejuke, kalu, Onyekuru and/or Simon. Look at how they move, pass, dribble & shoot, then you will know that Musa had perform far better in his national team career.

My dear, some of those invites are not of Rohr’s making, to be quite honest with you. When it comes to player invitation, his hands are tied. Remember when they (the NFF) vowed that they won’t let him have the final say on player invitations any more? Or just check out how Pinnick, literally, imposed Odion Ighalo on him.

O pari

Rohr still wouldn't have invited them. Has he finished inviting Simon and Shehu?

Wrong. No fantasy here. My argument is that we should select our BEST players to represent us regardless of where they are born. And on current form, you can’t tell me that the likes of Eberechi Eze, David Alaba, Tomori, Tammy, Olise, Okafor, etc. are not amongst the best players of Naija origin available. The problem is that the NFF doesn’t know how to play the game.

Philosopher1979:
We have Alhassan Yusuf in Royal Antwerp in Belgium and our akinkunmi amoo in Sweden but we are fantasizing about what we don't have. I am not against foreign borns but why not appreciate what we have. The worst thing is that a lot of people here may not support akinkunmi amoo and alhassan Yusuf to be in the nation's cup team but yet fantasize about some foreign born not playing for us.
A bird in hand is worth more than two in the bush. Let us appreciate and use what we have first

Correct me if I am wrong, don’t they have Nigerian fathers? They may be born in Switzerland but we have as much claim to them as Switzerland if one of their parents is Nigerian.

Please check your facts before acting melodramatic on here.

Neither Okafor nor Akanji are Nigerian born. They are both Swiss born and bred and represented their birth nations - like most players.

There is nothing the NFF can do about it. They are not from Nigeria. We have no responsibility towards them nor do they have any towards us

No way! The Okafor I am watching right now is head and shoulders ahead of Kalu. His football IQ is top notch and he’s a speed star. Come see the way he’s cutting thru Italian defense like a hot knife through butter.

That guy can definitely break into the current SE team for sure.

Again, no less than 2 Nigerian born players (Okafor and Akanji) in this Switzerland team. And that Okafor guy seems to be a good player, he just started the move that gave Switzerland a goal against Italy. And he’s been literally a thorn on Italian defense so far.

Jamuli Collins is in because we don’t have lots of options in the LB position. As for Musa and Shehu, they are there to “balance” the team. They are the quota candidates, if you know what I mean �

Omo, as a player, you stake your claim to the national team by playing well in your football team. If you’re putting in a solid performance week in week out in your team then there’s no way you won’t get an invite. But if you don’t perform at your football club then how can we expect you to perform wonders at the national team?


O pari

TheLoneCitizen:
For those that use Osimhen and Ighalo to judge a striker who doesn't score on his debut should note that:
Osimhen needed 7 different games to score his first super eagle goal.
Ighalo needed 3.
The players who allegedly aren't doing well have had:
Awoniyi - 1 game
Onuachu - Goal in 2nd game
Moffi - 3 games
Dessers - 1 game

How have these ones shown they aren't doing enough?
