Bolowolowo:
This dude's callup would've been more reasonable than that of the Bricklayer in Bulgaria.

Olorun, you no lie at all

Ar3mis:
It's not like France came to Africa to carry players to their national team.. Those guys were born and breed in France and are a product of the French football system..France simply reaped the reward for their investment on those players...
We on the other hand are waiting to reap the reward of the investment of other countries just because we feel entitled to it...

It's the same, the real French are barely getting a chance with the NT, and some of these guys have publicly shown that they still love their country of origin and only used the France NT for career purpose example is Benzema and Nasri

Earthquake1:
This is an indictment on the NFF

We are looking for fast temporal options while our own is rotting away

If you are a French man you won't celebrate their last world cup saying na foreigners win am for you

komekn:
We waited way too long , there was a time he was willing and ready but we delayed and we are doing the same thing with Eze once again.

That time should be when he was struggling with hull city, so we should have called a struggling player?

Maybe for U-23 sha

charlesemeka85:
Dis one dey romance us

Who be this one

realpoacher:
I dont even understand our purpose on this thread. Or our usefulness.


Otabor this, Ebere Eze that.


Our voices, our noise here is completely and totally irrelevant in grand scheme of things.

We have been discussing here every day about moving nigeria's football forward yet nff will wake up and do complete opposite.

Isnt it obvious here that our rant equals to nothing?

Please take your Otabor rankings to nff handle and spear me intellectual reads here.

Haba

Even me i am hurt concerning his callup but obviously my feelings are inconsequential in this matter. So i keep shut

Abeg make everybody face front

If all of us will take this position then even you won't like to visit this thread because it will be too dry

OMANBALA1:
Nne, I understand your take about my reaction but though Azubike had struggled its not enough reason to mock him...i will go at anybody that disrespects his hustle. Daalu,nwada

But you can disrespect Iwobi and Co hustle here. That's good

BascoVanVeli:
Hmmm on the bolded

I am not going by last season or any season. What I see today is a Manchester city that is on the ropes. They have no defense. Lapporte and Kompany leaving really hurt them. People get so carried away with their beautiful football that they forget they still have to defend.

Tot Pep develop players, didn't they say if you play under him you'll become so good. So why is Otamendi not playing like peak Vidic?

TheSuperNerd:
Aribo returns to the bench. He is getting better and that is good news.

Ojo starts for Rangers.


With Samuel Kalu ruled out of the Brazil game, I think we may see Simon Moses start or could it be Bonaventure? Time will tell. Just glad Aribo is back.

Moses will start, but I'll prefer Etebo to play from the wings with Ndidi and Aribo in the middle but then we know that's not going to happen

.

Saka starts for arsenal

Curtisaxel7:
Account name "Siasia fans ventures", Hmm....I hope someone isn't trying to cash out with Siasia's misfortune.


But then, why should FIFA punish Siasia first before giving him the opportunity to defend himself?. I thought the accused remains innocent until proven guilty in court? How come Siasia was accused, tried and convicted in absentia and without his knowledge?.

Abeg Mujtahida and our other lawyer people, Is this fair?

They wrote to him twice but he didn't turn up.

komekn:
Were you are born can influence you to a great degree, but the BIGGEST INFLUENCE possible is your parents if they they play their role correctly.

I was born in the UK and l went to Nigeria for the first time when l was 11. Before l became too Oyibo according to my Father and off to boarding school in Warri I was despatched.

I am not Ibo, but l speak Ibo l understand and speak my language as well. I have a workable understanding of Yoruba very basic though.

My cultural identity is entirely Nigerian but l can be multi faceted. When I'm with oyibo you would think i am a lost son. Often l hear Nigerian talking about me thinkibg l dont understand what they are saying sometimes derogatory. That's very amusing when l then speak Ibo or Yoruba to them.

When l reach Warri you may think that na complete area I be.

So am l still an Abroadian ❓

There are Nigerians who were born and bred in Nigeria predominantly the women. Some from small towns and villages.

On arrival they become more oyibo than the Oyibos denying all things Nigerian within a few weeks in the UK. Are they not Nigerian born and bred ❓

Something to think about its not so simplistic.

Ahnahn, Bros it's not that deep na. See as you type long epistle

According to report, Sia1 needs to pay 100k dollars before he can file an appeal with FIFA and we all know how he struggled to free his mum from kidnapper's captivity

Famocious:
Samuel Kalu ruled out from Nigeria vs Brazil friendly due to injury

Source : Oluwasina Okeleji twitter post

Time to call Eze?

gustav25:
Just look at this acclaimed citadel of drunks asking such a question

Lol

tbaba1234:
Nigeria loses to cape verde on penalties.

Imama is not the man to take Nigeria under 23 or the CHAN team forward.

The most painful part is our FIFA ranking that will take a big hit

timay:
Most if the players too are also match rusty. The league has been off for how many months now

don't think they are, they've been playing various preseason games

ChrisKels:
He will eventually come around to be flanked by Zaha and Pepe.



In a different gist, there is something I av noticed about our kenke bredas. Those guys don't bother themselves over foreign borns. Did u know dey never fought for Depay, Odoi, Eddie Nketia, Ethan Ampadu etc. Their FA never made any swoop on those guys

They tried getting Ampadu

Earthquake1:
Your logic is deficient, Tottenham just conceeded 3 in front of me

Does that mean Brighton are better, the best may not have been invited

OK

Earthquake1:
Definitely, finding a genuinely young RB in NPFL is not impossible

I see, no wonder Togo ripped them twice in a week

tbaba1234:
Lol.. please, the national team is not to help people's careers. It is for the best Nigerian players.

Abi o

elyte89:
Wc one is.my guy not on bench


Please let us knw d player name in full ,nerdy has predicted him to come out blazing dis season with his pre season performance

Please who's the guy you people are talking about? Just drop his name with your full chest

andrew444:
Iwobi starts and Ndidi as usual

My guy not on bench

Collins vs awoniyi but awoniyi on bench

Ramon Azeez also starts

Lol, which of your guys? Because them be two wey no dey ever smell bench

Earthquake1:
This would have been the perfect opportunity to invite a young RB playing in the NPFL and perhaps change his career trajectory

LMAO, please don't even go there

tbaba1234:
Maybe we can get the team to start playing on good pitches again, instead of this Asaba.

Who go dey finance the team in Abuja?

andrew444:
I tire ooo, he has only kick the ball for benfica u23 and yet they are inviting him

If he's not fully fit he would have turned down the invite or his club would have stopped him

andrew444:
Just few training session with Lille before he started his first league game ,he didn’t even arrive quick due to afcon

He wasn't supposed to be their starting striker but Remy's injury paved way for him

andrew444:
At the bolded i saw everything wrong, this is one of the reasons i call nigerians ass lickers, i am still angry a shola ameobi made the world cup easily and a certain brown ideye was not there

They see nothing wrong in that just because he was born abi brought up in abroad, majority of nigerians are tribalist but they respect all foreigners

Nonsense

I'm sure something must have passed under the table for that Ameobi case

Mujtahida:
See this https://www.nairaland.com/5453086/nigerian-amputee-team-goes-angola

Hahaha hahaha.

SMH, so if these ones defect somebody will now start talking about patriotism
