I have read that journal and a couple of others.

Scientifically speaking, a system or procedure that has a reliability rating of 90% is very reliable and so very acceptable.

Until proven otherwise MRI results for cubing of age cheating is very reliable and FIFA and the entire football community will continue to accept the ages of players that have gone through this scanning process.

Ebiede hum....the best i watched of him was an Olympic qualifier against Uganda..and Clemens Westerhof was Ugandan s coach and we needed four goals to qualify.....Pius Ikedia saved us that day..They had to give Westerhof red card for us to score the fourth goal oooo...Ebiede was classic in this game..he even scored twice..i think so..after that...the end of Ebiede

Oga mi, I think you guys totally 100% misunderstand my post. I wasn't tryna put anyone down or call anybody a mediocre. gosh, I don't even know the folks who have been nominated sef. I might check them out over the weekend but I haven't had time to check yet. Anyway, I was just making a generalized statement ... a general assumption, if you will, that we might end up with square pegs in round holes if we throw the nomination open, as an all comers affair.

If you come down to it, I am NOT asking to be nominated. And if nominated, I might not even have the time to be effective in the committee due to the pressure on my time right now. However, I was just pointing out the need to have the right people in that committee. Not to sound conceited or anything but some of us have played this game to a very decent level. Some of us have the right connections and contacts in high and low places, both at home and abroad (a la Tbaba1234 and Joebie). Some of us have followed this game and even coached this game long enough to understand the game (a la Icon4s etc.).

That's what's driving my recommendation. My intention was never to put anybody down or for a shameless self promotion. Having said that, I formally withdraw my name from the nomination, but let's give the other 5 candidates a very good consideration.

Those are just thoughts but I would implore y'all to give those thoughts a very good consideration if we want to achieve our aim of forming this committee. There's a saying in my village that na "ora adighi atu ero". Even in the Bible, when they were about to replace Judas Iscariot, they established some standards/qualifications for the ideal candidates. They didn't threw the whole thing open for all comers.

Just thoughts ....

Chief you dey fall my hand o.

Truly is a faceless forum but chief you need to be brutal in addressing some idiotic posts cos a lot want to see your response.

What a hell of a post,nonsense and highly irritating.

No mediocre here for God sake abi no be super eagles brought us together

TheGoodJoe:
Thinking back about how talented the Galacticos of Real Madrid were, I had to post this video. They were unbelievably talented. Check out the first goal, free kick from Roberto Carlos. You cannot even see the ball.

Keep in mind the Barcelona team was also highly talented but the gulf in class was huge.

Thank you everyone that has responded.

With 20likes and 0 shares it means we have a unanimous decision here, so no time to waste.

Next we go ahead and make nominations of Players Selection Committee members.

Please I crave the involvement of everyone in the house, including those on ghost mode.

Remember the three rules for nomination of Players Selection Committee members
1. You are to nominate one person
2. Do not nominate yourself
3. Do not nominate twice.

Ladies and Gentlemen the floor is open.

moonraker:
Oh yeah!

Someone on this thread said something about there being success stories on other

threads like the American, UK etc and none here. Although, I didn't get explicit permission to post this info,

I would like to introduce to you all, The first success story of this thread. I call this the first because

this individual would be the first person on here to come all the way from Nigeria, with a job waiting for him.

All papers checked!

@jihday is that individual. I spoke to him via social media and He is alive and healthy. Time permitting, i might pay him a visit.

and maybe post it on here....

I’ve not closed door on Nigeria, says Akpoguma
By Christian Okpara, Hoffenheim, Germany


Kevin Akpoguma is rated by world football governing body, FIFA as one of the future stars of the game.
The Hoffenheim defender, who captained Germany at the 2015 U-20 World Cup has played for the Die Mannschaft at all the youth levels, but he is yet to play for the main team of the 2014 world champions.

And so, he is still eligible to play for the Super Eagles.


Akpoguma has a Nigerian father and a German mother, which makes him eligible to play for either of the two countries.

But the talented defender prefers to wait for a chance with the German team and will decide to switch allegiance to Nigeria if he failed to get the chance with Joachim Loew’s team.

He told The Guardian after Hoffenheim’s 4-0 defeat of Stuttgart that he has thought hard of playing for Nigeria, adding, “but the thing is that I was born in Germany and I have played for all the youth teams of Germany and I am still a young player.

“So, I want to leave it open because Germany can still call me. But if I have no other option to play for Germany, then I can consider playing for Nigeria because my dad is from Nigeria.”

Akpoguma disclosed that members of his family have not put pressure on him to choose any of the two countries, adding, “My father has told me to listen to my heart… he doesn’t want to put pressure on me to make any decision. It is very important I make the right decision.

“There are some examples like Prince Boateng of Ghana, who only played for Ghana in the World Cup and retired after that. I believe that if you want to play for a country I think you should play for that country with love and passion. It makes no sense leaving after a few games. That is why if I play for Nigeria I should be in a position to play my whole career for them. No half measures.

“Gernot Rohr visited us here in Hoffenheim and talked a lot about the young team he is building. I saw it at the World Cup; there are very good players like Iwobi, Ndidi and Leon Balogun. He explained all the things because I had a good conversation with him. But as I said, I want to leave every door open. When the time comes, I will let the world know my decision.”

If we want foreign coaches, why do we always go for carpenter foreign coaches who have not achieved anything major before they coach the eagles. We keep killing the Eagles brand with these legbere foreign coaches.

What do you mean where is my proof?

Can you name one Nigerian midfielder better than Bakayoko except Ndidi?

ChrisKels:
Tiemue Bakayoko to do a Wilfred Zaha on France as he is set to reverse his international allegiance to add to Ivory Coast's already packed midfield.

Supernerd where art thou

Imagine Bakayoko DM, Kessie CM and Seri AM, Cornet top 9 flanked by Zaha and "Pepe" the Neymar of Lille, Chai Nerdy bwoy wont like this breathing down on Onazi, Agu, Agbo, Etebo, Ogu hahahaha. Behind those gladiators are Aurier RB, Gbamin and Baily CBs and Ghislain LB

Lol Afcon go sweet biko

Wait...so if Everton and Bordeaux are dragging for a prospect - you honestly think the prospect will mull things over?? AT 2018?? Look at the players Everton got and tell me the last time Bordeaux got that caliber of players
This is turning into a farce oo. Why use Barca and Man City?? It's more like Man City and Sevilla...that's what Everton is to Bordeaux...

mr komekn happy Independence day first of what Dominic iorfa snr went through with the nff is nothing that credible people like Segun odegbami and kojo Williams have not gone through but they kept on believing and contributing to the same corrupt nff because good or bad the system will be changed from within and not just mere English and complaining or gnashing of teeth.

As for iorfa jnr he just has to improve and make a career for himself. You always insist on players been chosen because they are good enough now not what he did last year or two years back. If iorfa comes good teams will chase him not just Nigeria. Even if he chooses not to play for nigeria at the very least he can have a great club career. Now I have no issue with you or forgiveness calling for equity justice and honesty in player selection for the national team but where I always clash with you guys is when you defend average or below average players then go round to criticize and rubbish someone else for doing the same.

My hope and prayer for national team is to be in the nearest future filled with players of outstanding quality playing in the best clubs so that all this back and forth would be unnecessary
