Haha

But seriously, why can’t we have a third powerful ticket. I’m mulling over a Sanusi/Duke ticket. It’s only a fantasy though.

safarigirl:
Buhari cannot outrig the likes of Saraki, Wike and Co..... Those are the machines that helped him defeat PDP in 2015

The race will be tight sha.... May the best rigger win

All things being equal (rigging inclusive)

safarigirl:
these people are inconsequential. Even when OBJ contested for President in his second term, he did not have the support of SW

The only thing that has remained constant in the SW is that they never really give a majority to the PDP. Aside 2011, it's usually a tight race in the SW..... But I expect the MB to give the deciding votes come 2019.

Well said. Shehu can easily slot in to partner Ndidi. Ogu is not a bad option either. There is no cause for alarm.

mazimee:
Ogu is still there, Etebo will start . Shehu is a Midfielder, and plays same for his club.

If Rohr get sense, he should start Aina.

Who go win no be the matter I dey talk about. U suppose know

forgiveness:
When eyes go clear and people go dey hail...Sia Baba!

Okay na. Feb no far

forgiveness:
Dey dere.

Both. Mixed feelings

krattoss:
should we be happy or sad

Abeg commot dia. We already know wetin go happen.

forgiveness:
OBJ is dead on arrival in the SW.

Obj nko?

forgiveness:
Nobody takes Afenifere seriously these days.

They are inconsequential.

We are both HOPING for the same.

Icon79:
I definitely hope not! I mean, after the stinker he had in Russia, I will really pick issues with Rohr if Idowu starts ahead of Aina (or Collins) this time. Hopefully, playing in Serie A has helped Aina to improve because he didn't really show us anything before the World Cup.


O pari

U mean SE players? Where Ivory Coast NT come dey na?

SlayerForever:
Nigeria NT football is on an upward slope.

Guy me I no dey for all those camp news things again. Those reports are always misleading compared to what happens on matchday. I don’t want to remember what happened pre-Russia. Finest jersey, shaku shaku for instagram etc hahaha

Let us be entertained on the pitch on d-day

Earthquake1:
Tomorrow is Super Eagles outing,the talk should be about camp news,formation and pictures

Not some stupid Iwobi 2007 sh1t

I would be very surprised if Idowu is not our starting LB in the AFCON

Icon79:
Let's hope that this dude is as good as advertised because I don't wanna see Bryan Idowu playing for this team any more. Idowu was our weakest link in Russia


O pari

I for fear o. For the first time komekn agree and comma still dey? lol

komekn:
My mistake it should really be

Agreed without question.

Kpele o my brother. If Naija na another country there would have been demonstrations in various parts because of this crisis. We are not brothers and sisters at all o.

junnyjake:
Hi, Fam!

I recently lost a neighbor to this recent Jos crisis.

It's been really hard accepting the fact that I'm never gon see Richie again even though we were together hours before he was killed.

IMO komekn argues for his boys just as others argue for theirs. If we have to use one standard consistently, I will fault many especially considering that “two passport” Nigerian players are fully Nigerians as “one passport” Nigerian players.

COOL10:
. Bro,you're known here for facts twisting and unnecessary exaggerations. No need trying to explain to you. Look at your past comments again but this time,without bias. I'm sure you'll see your true reflection there. 99.9 percent of this thread's users already know this.

OKOCHA!!!

edi287:
So why do you think Oliseh invited him?? Remember he was initially invited for the U23 but Wenger refused. Oliseh capped him and set him back to train with Siasia.

Agreed without turning my steering wheel or putting on my handbrake.

komekn:
Agreed without change of gear or hesitation

NFF practice double standard without shame.

Lol Wait make afenifere decide before u shout

forgiveness:
Me don commot mind for SE matter for now. I don port go politics section be dat.

Said Buhari!

Let maja train with SE as consistently as possible. That’s my take on him. Let him make the stand by list consistently and be asked to come and train.

komekn:
I agree that they have not been given opportunity to impress or even make a claim.

However the fire were deh burn for Maja leg now go burn everybody. Can he sustain it into the EPL I don't know only time will tell.

Can he do it on the SE without the opportunity we will NEVER KNOW.

Okay it’s the 2nd time I’ve seen this. So it has to be true. We know where bad PR talk as regards ‘Abrahams’ land us. Make we dey siddon look.

tbaba1234:
It was from an interview on the club website that he confirmed his desire to play for Nigeria at senior level.

It is not good PR for him to be talking about representing another country when he just got his first England call up. I am sure his reps appealed to the club to pull it down.

Why the club delete am o

Anichebe could not do what Olanare did in the Chinese 2nd tier .

Also take note Ighalo’s barren run started in the EPL and extended to China. Why did he not start firing all cylinders immediately he moved to China?

Modified
Olanare played in the Super League season 2014/2015. The quality has improved since then though

tbaba1234:
Olanare had a good goal record in China (15 goals in about 34 games) but he could not replicate the same in Europe. Anichebe did not play many games and he was never prolific to start with.

Ighalo has one good season in the top flight. He went to China on the back on an almighty barren run.

The competition is not stiff in this SE. that’s my main criticism of Rohr. Make these players feel like there is always that player about to snatch their shirt.

edi287:
I repeat, if(when) Ebere Eze moves to a epl club - he is gone. Southgate will cap him before we can blink. This same Southgate capped Solanke who had little to no game time...what makes you think he'll wait for Nigeria to call Eze?
This was a very well calculated move from England. Rohr fanboys will look for all the excuses in the world to justify this buffoonery.
I don't think that guy learnt anything from the world cup. He's already back to playing Ndidi - Onazi as a pivot. I tire for that guy.

The truth is we have not even given the likes of Nwakaeme and Kayode enough opportunities. These players are truly ahead of any new name.

elyte89:
Well from ur own assertion, we can only hope and pray dey deliver by scoring goals,but God forbid if dis goal drought still continues btw dis two players till next year

Are we still going to call dem up base on deir previous performance or hoping dey would still come out better most especially IGHALO? ,3YEARS 3GOALS? ,relying on dem for goals in AFCON?


Dt was y I proffer d solution of giving some players d chance and let c,not until we try dem out,we won't knw if dey re better or not(eida backwater or anything)

Abeg make una leave Keshi.

charlesemeka85:
even rohr self no dey even give these godfathers too much room to add in so many of their players if not players from bangladash,syria,vietnam etc would have been invited since lol

Na true.. like say KC never play for Naija and na “two passport”, he would not only have been better than Mbappe but BY FAR

Icon4s:
See me clapping.

Asking for players to be thrown away without replacement. Lol.

Just yesterday charlsemeka was saying also that we should do away with likes of Ogu, Onazi, Mikel and Joel. Ok, name replacements asides Eze he was mentioning Billings and Ejaria. Players that don't even have Nigerian passports yet.

I particularly like those 3 words u used NEW, UNTESTED and UNPROVEN. Those are the kind of players that are always the best players for them. Nigerian fans will not cease to amaze. They will not learn. That is why every World Cup we keep producing the youngest team with an inexperience tag, calling them a team for the future. Only to throw them out again looking for another group of "young, Hungary fresh bloods".

I am whole-heartedly with Rohr on his players selection. The only player I wished he had included was Ebere Eze. Team building is a gradual process. Massively throwing away old players and flooding the team with new players will only cause more harm to the team.

Safari like a quote you made recently " there is no best player anywhere ". This same Iheanacho they are attacking if he was not playing for the Super Eagles yet and is posting this same kind of performance at Leicester City we for no hear word here. They would have hyped him to high heavens and even threaten to kill Rohr if he doesn't Cap him.

Rohr has even said he does it together with his assistants — one of which is serving a one-year ban

komekn:
Agreed

And some of us actually think that Rohr is making his team selection entirely on his own. That's being Delusional.

Hahahahahaha

forgiveness:
You better don't give yourself Bp. Eze own don teach me lesson that your health is more important than anything.

Me don dey withdraw small small for football matter before I go kill myself.

And that’s why we look up to him to deliver. But he hasn’t done that much this year.

kellycute:
dont be a clown Bro lol, check the scorer log under rohr and tell me who’s leading? Nacho!!! And let that sink in.

That’s how Olanare was painting China with goals abi? Or Anichebe who could not even shoot a handgun in the Chinese 2nd tier.
I promise you many of our strikers won’t score as much as Ighalo has in China, though they could come better in the GWG. Was his exploits in England a fluke? Some players don’t just translate their club form to the national team. Ighalo seems to be one of them

tbaba1234:
Spot on..

This is why i can not put too much stock in the number of goals Ighalo scores in China.

FB no dey reign again. Na “Two passport” be the new term.

Danielnino00:
Iwobi isn't foreign born. .is he?/

No be Lagos dem born am?

Lol I usually respect others’ opinion and try to be civil as much as I can.

SlayerForever:
I sincerely hope so. There shouldn't be an automatic shirt for someone in poor form., Meanwhile,the cult status for the young man they're adopting here (to the point of cyberbullying others into submission) is making it seem so. That is wrong.
