Sadiq is almost 23.

Has played professional football for 6 years plus and 75 games since 2014 that's not good enough. Why so few games if he is so good.

He has played in a number of leagues Eredivisie, Seria A and B, Scottish premier league and now Serbian league.

Prior to playing in the Serbian league has not been outstanding. He just been at best average if not below. Before he went to Rangers the highest number of games he played in a season was 12 games that's very poor to be honest. He has never played more than 17 games in a season in his entire career. And that has been at higher sub10 rated leagues in Europe.

That will change now in Serbia now for him. If he had not been to other leagues before going to Serbia. I would be very optimistic. So he has to get to better league to prove his quality.

Scottish league is a higher rated league not in dispute.

Football is always about the HERE and NOW.

Quite recently Rangers beat Porto among other higher rated clubs. Who has Partizan beat in the UEFA of higher rating ❓

Let's look at value which club has the higher quality of players. We can look at in financial value of players, that's a good start. Just Morelos and Aribo in value and pedigree will exceed the total value of thier players. There are others attracting transfer speculation.

The most expensive player they have is Markovic has a poor reputation on and off the pitch. From his time at Liverpool.

Future look at the players of Rangers a club that Flanagan( former high flying Liverpool & England RB) is struggling to get game time.

I find no comparison between them in the HERE and NOW. If you use Transfer Market the club players in entirety are valued at £40 Million and l don't even trust thier valuation they are not very market responsive.

UEFA Partizan are in Group L the easiest group but have been generally poor. The only team that's quality there is Manchester United.

Rangers are in a far harder group but are second in the group. With Feyenoord ,Porto and Young boys. But are joint group leaders Celtic have 10 points and are top of thier group. An indication of how the Scottish league two top teams are progressing.

Will you agree it's much easier to go from Rangers to bigger clubs than Partizan.huh ❓

That's my take Rangers is ahead
Ever heard of the word injury?

This is the kind of mindset that I am talking about. U played Brazil and Ukraine for Lesotho but u want to tell me that we don't need friendlies to prepare for a neighbouring country.

I am not a f**l u people are just fighting to maintain the image of your Pinnick. There is no other excuse for this shameless looking of the other way for a man that has failed time and again. Without the super eagles he is a complete loser and any man or woman that says different has a flawed character
I don't care about Pinnick, I think he has been poor as FA chairman, but the truth is if Nigeria had fail to beat Lesotho even Rhor won't give the excuse of lack of friendly. Did Togo even play any friendly? Truth is Imama is a poor coach it's not even up for debate

I don't want to make this a big deal but how would Rohr have felt if he wasn't given a single friendly match before playing such important matches? Our main team played Ukraine and Brazil but who did the Chan team play to prepare? 4 years ago we played Yaya Toure's ivory Coast as preparation and he couldn't believe they were home based. Then last Tim we at least went on tour in Spain. This ishh is not rocket science. Failure to prepare is preparing to fail
To play Togo? OK

Rohr says CHAN failure not good for local players, picks holes in NPFL

Super Eagles coach Gernot Rohr has lamented the failure of the CHAN Eagles to qualify for next year’s tournament in Cameroon, while picking holes on the organization of the NPFL.

The home-based Eagles were eliminated from Cameroon 2020 by Togo.

“This (CHAN exit) is not good sign for the local players, if they could not go to CHAN,” he said.

“We therefore need better infrastructure, better level of football and for the players to play regularly, not for the league to be off for several months, players cannot be fit without regular competition.”

Rohr restated his position that players from the domestic league must improve and be better than their Europe-based counterparts for him to consider them on his team.

“They have to be better than the players who play in Europe,” he maintained.

“I take only the best players.

“Do you know of a coach who does not play his best players?”

Agreed Opabunmi and Adepoju had no business in the team. The question the poster asked you was what were Ejide, Enyeama (at that time), justice christopher, John utaka (as at that time), efe sodje, Eric ejiofor doing in that team as well?
Opabunmi's presence can be explained, he was our best player at the U-17 world cup held less than one year to that time and we were short of players as lots of our players were suspended by the sport minister

UZOHO is just 15/16 years old in 2014 and thus would be too naive and vastly inexperienced and matured enough to have put up any bold and inspiring display in Goal by any standard
You don't understand, I meant instead of a great GK like Enyeama if we had an ordinary GK like Uzoho or Akpeyi I'm not sure we would have survived our group

Very few European clubs will give our coaches jobs despite how good they are.

By the way, I am glad they have pointed out that Rohr should watch the local league. He has been too poor in that respect and people keep quiet about it. Wish him the best but Rohr needs to show improvement with respect to harnessing talents from the local scene.
Let the local league management do that, the ones Keshi brought none ended up in a good club, none is still playing top level football. The league and the players should do well for themselves first.

This sound familiar

"What do you mean by if true? Are you the one who drafted the tactics?"

You always talk like you assisted Keshi in drafting his tactics and game-plan while questioning the integrity of another person's opinion

We are all fans but somethings are just too palpable

Such as Mediocrity, football carpentry, nepotism and favoritism

Ike Uche, I gathered, was always advocating the adoption of the tactics of his club and would easily make remarks about “how things are done in my club and how they should be done here.”

Sylvanus Okpala, then with the Eagles, reportedly once asked Uche that if all players in a national team insist on adopting their club tactics what will the confusion be like? Okpala advised him to stick to the game plans of the team and that he needed to respect the national team too.

I also gathered that Ike always did things his own way. But there were times his goals covered up tremendously for his tactical indiscipline or idiosyncrasies as the case may be. At the last Nations Cup in South Africa, Ike Uche didn’t have a good tournament.


His matter, I gathered, was compounded by the fact that he bluntly refused to obey instructions especially the one that had to do with marking. As a second striker, Uche was always asked to fall deep to mark. But he was always failing to do so after repeated warnings and opponents were exploiting the space he was creating by his action. It was so bad that even his fellow players complained, I gathered.

You can read some issues pointed by Coach Sylvanus Okpala.
Okkkkkk, I remember this episode tho but Osaze own is totally new to me. Although I know Osaze is a loud mouthed morrafuka

After apologising, he still did not play to instructions. You said Keshi still played him. Maybe, he took instructions during the tournament after Keshi pointed it out.

Where is the contradiction.
Which match pls, because it was preworld cup that he joined, and link to where Keshi said he's still not playing to team instructions
