Game still ongoing, but Ekong have the second highest rating in the game

TheGoodJoe:
The fake news was that Alaba was never asked to bring bribe. Komekn knows it but is just deliberately bringing it up to spread whatever he intends to spread.

However, Alaba wanted to play for us at the u17 level but did not get the nod due to logistics reasons. At the u17 level back then was strictly a grassroot development program and we were not spending extra money to fly in foreign young teens to participate in camping and training.

Really don't know why you had to put this part, let me also remind you that the U-17 back then was filled with age cheat

komekn:
You may remember a certain Alaba that plays for Bayern Munich. He wanted to play for Nigeria but was asked for Bribe before invitation and he then walked back to Germany.

I don't know if it's true, but what is incontrovertible to me is there is something. AMISS.

It's not true, Alaba himself refuted it

andrew444:
Agreed

But some people are praying he should be dropped as if he is that bad

Naija fans still remain anywhere belle face

I'm surprised you are surprised, let this one be invited and have one or two bad games you'll see as they'll call him championship flop and berate the coach for dropping iwobi a proven epl player for him

Hmmmmm, as cool as you like it

BascoVanVeli:
Isaac is injured his coach confirmed it

OK, thanks. Not like he'll be in the match day squad tho

Barryseal:
I know exactly what you mean. They don't want to report on the thread that Iwobi was replaced by Sigurdson on the 87th min and the substitute scored on the 90th min.
These bunch here thrive in telling half truths.

And you thrive on pulling down our players

As usual, Success balogun and Nacho fall to make match day squad

Close watchers of Nigeria football are now wondering how top NFF officials hope they can wriggle out of the corruption charges against them simply by imposing the son of the country’s security chief on the final squad to the U17 World Cup in Brazil.

Abba Bichi, a student in China, was a shock inclusion on the final Golden Eaglets squad to the U17 World Cup, which starts on October 26 in Brazil.

He will be 16 in December and the FIFA official squad announcement has it that he will wear jersey No 19 and he is a talent of Talentbase FC in Nigeria.

Bichi Junior has yet to see action in the warm-up games the Eaglets have so far played in readiness to the World Cup.

SCORENIGERIA First Raised The Alarm On Bichi Junior

Sources close to the Eaglets camp were unanimous that the boy is not good enough to be on the squad, but he was listed on the orders of NFF top shots.

This writer has watched the boy play at the FIFA Goal Project in Abuja and he is undeserving of a place on the final squad.

There is a long list of better players including those who did not even make it to Brazil.
Coach Manu Garba reportedly kicked against the selection of the younger Bichi, but he was told in very unclear terms he also has an option to head back to Nigeria.

It was alleged that this “political player” plan was initiated and executed by NFF vice president Shehu Dikko in a most desperate move to get a favourable report from the country’s top security agency.

SCORENigeria further gathered that Daniel Dalung, the nephew of immediate past sports minister Solomon Dalung was also on this jamboree to Brazil that the cash-strapped NFF cannot afford.

He did not make the final cut.

All these have shown that top officials impose players on national teams for their selfish ends contrary to their claims.

SCORENigeria first reported that the son of the DSS chief was smuggled on the trip to Brazil.

The plan by desperate NFF officials led by president Amaju Pinnick, who will appear in court in Abuja on November 5 over various corruption charges, is to curry the favour of the country’s top shots so that they are left off the hook.

Pinnick and four other top officials – Seyi Akinwunmi, Shehu Dikko, Mohammed Sanusi and Ahmed Yusuf ‘Fresh’ – are also being investigated for alleged corruption by both the ICPC and EFCC.

Meanwhile Alex Iwobi starts in his favorite AM position

Danielnino00:
I clearly stated that the super eagles was the only part of the national team Pinnick has done a good job on..

U are just going around in circle with all this funding talks...
Why has he not sacked all those mediocre coaches he appointed into the national team?
Why hasn't he shown concern about the state of the league?

U are being sentential to assume that the northern cabals are fighting Pinnick.. Pinnick isn't the only top NFF official that the EFCC and ICPC are after.. ..

I agree, aside the super eagles Amaju's tenure have not been so great especially with the appointment of rubbish coaches see all our age grade teams, the female teams. It was under him that our falcons won nations cup went on strike cos of unpaid wages, for over one year they didn't kick a ball in anger before they eventually got Dennerby as coach.

Prectega:
Iwobi better up his game today, else rohr shouldn't call him again .. He has been flop for a while

the whole Everton team have been rubbish tho so why make it look like Iwobi is the source of their bad form

andrew444:
Slimani is not an epl flop, he was never starting ahead of vardy

If i could remember he was their top scorer in the champions league

Only first grade strikers can bench vardy at leicester, but no first grade striker will play for club like leicester

Example of first grade striker, Aguero, Suarez, cavani

Baba quickly give example before somebody come dey call some funny names

Odunayaw:
And the North Africans with tasty leagues are corruption free?

You can't compare the level of corruption in Egypt to Nigeria o

The Unprofessional Football League : Kunle Soname Spoke The Startling Truth…..

the defenders of NPFL are coming to drag you, they'll tell you how you hate the league. We'll need to cleanse the country of corruption before we start talking about reforming the league, corruption is one of the major problems with the league and as we all know virtually all Nigerians one way or the other enjoy corruption.

tbaba1234:
He is the son of the DSS DG. He attended training though..

If he attended training that he's the son of the DG doesn't matter, he could have been good enough

mostob:
saw this somewhere. ... unbelievable


Abba Bichi never attended training nor went to camp but he will be at the Under 17 World Cup for Nigeria
His father is Yusuf Magaji Bichi, DSS boss.

@ tbaba12345 can you please confirm this beer parlour gist

That means this joker have not appointed commissioners? Since May that you've been sworn in you still telling us what you will or won't do. Clueless human

kellycute:
Naija men wey nor fit influence his son make he play for us na mumu. How I go born pikin and he go tell me say he nor go play for super eagles? E nor fit happens. He go choose playing for Naija or I go disown am sharp sharp. It is very important to raise your kids with the mentality of "you are first a Nigerian and that is all that matter".

Easier said than done bro

andrew444:
I gave you a list for the past 2 seasons , i think ndidi is more than 2 seasons for now

None of them plays for a bigger club there like AS roma

And mind you onyekuru didnt move from belgium to france, dont be mistaken, you are claiming belgium? gala should be claiming the glory for onyekuru because he last played there on loan, if onyekuru had flopped in gala i am not sure if he will get a move to monaco

Don't mind them, the only reason it seems players don't move is because Turkey is tax friendly so players don't really like to move to another country where tax will finish their money, it's not like they don't get offers but they look at the financial side of the deal first

andrew444:
Yusuf yazici from trabzonspor to lille

Cengiz Ünder from Basaksehir to as roma, arsenal and liverpool where interested in this guy then,its all over the net

cenk tosun from beiktas to everton, it should be about 2 seasons now, you should know how much everton paid for him and he is not even that young

Okay Yokuslu from trabzonspor to celta vigo
zeki celik from turkish division 2 to lille
sinan gumus from gala to genoa
Elif Elmas from fenerbahce to napoli

They are still more to mention but let me end here as this list is just within 2 seasons, you are saying players dont move from the turkish league to others league then you have no idea of what you are saying

If nacho impress in besiktas he will move to a bigger league but likely a smaller club than besiktas

Thank you o, some people just give info without reliable facts

Eartquake1:
If Nacho joins Besiktas it's very likely he will end up in Besiktas

Big clubs hardly scout in Turkey, but if he goes on loan to a French team and impresses big clubs will immediately take notice

Tosun? Under? That Leicester dude nko? Go to Germany import from Turkish league plenty die

quickberry2:
He is very good.... according to his clips on youtube, the guy is better than Chukwueze

Lol

andrew444:
All the teams you just mentioned are very good teams

Chile are no longer the force they used to be

peterd53:
See resemblance sha

Noticed too

safarigirl:
First, he'a 20, not 19. You people should join us in 2019, he will be 21 before the end of this year, and I'm sure some of you will still be calling him 19 next year.

Secondly, keep this same energy for South American footballers that also marry young, okay?

And I don't know where they kept it for Wilshire, Rooney and Sterling

breezy147:
Senegal have twice recently proven to be a better TEAM than us.

I can't remember them beating us twice, I know 1-1 and 1-0

breezy147:
The players carried him through.

I kinda agree that Cisse isn't so great, but don't take the success of their tournament from him

breezy147:
He didn't watch the game. Perhaps he saw only the highlights.

I did watch the game, couldn't just recollect any threatening moment especially in the second half

breezy147:
Senegal is a better team than us on paper and they have better players.

The odds favor them to beat us if we meet.

Our front line (Kalu, Osimhen, Chukwu ) are rookies and are gradually finding their feet. Chuks' inexperience was glaring multiple times in his decision making during the last 2 games.

We can eventually grow into world beaters with these great prospect but my point is for now call a spade a spade and accept that we are 3rd in Africa (behind Algeria and Senegal) and not quite world beaters yet.

We are not ready for WC2022.

na the only thing wey you don talk that I agree with be this

breezy147:
Algeria beat Senegal twice this year. And they just beat Colombia. That proves something.

Ukraine beating Portugal (With C Ronaldo) just once proves nothing until they replicate this feat consistently. Until then, Ukraine is not a yardstick and that we beat them does not mean we have arrived.


Senegal did not defend deep like we did. They have Mane and others.

Who do we have?


Until we arrive, let's accept that for now all we can do is defend deep against any top team like we did against Brazil and escaped with a draw.

They didn't defend deep you say? I'm not sure you saw the game, their goal even came via PK
