You can never know how a player will turn out. This is why England stay on top of their development. How many players’ careers has Nigeria made? On the other hand, What progress have we made in our football after so many years? I keep repeating, it’s this mentality that keeps us behind. I call it foolish pride.

How do u even throw such a line as regards Eze, no single player is bigger than Nigeria. It baffles me.

BascoVanVeli:
I am not throwing any punches I am speaking facts. When somebody doesn't want to go with simple reasoning what do u want me to say?

England will know to keep hands off if he simply tells them he is waiting for Nigeria.

@ the bolded, no single player is bigger than our national team and yes he needs us more than we need him. There is only one Dele Alli but there are hundreds of Nigerian boys who never even smelled 3 lions. If he is being honest he should know that Nigeria is were his best opportunity lies

We need to find solutions to our unique problems. That’s what UEFA did. It’s an African problem. We are not thinking. Even if we think, we do not do.

Earthquake1:
The UEFA Nations league have given European teams opportunity to call up as many players of one or double descent as they like and play them in competitive matches

Africa needs to respond with a similar league else European nations will be far ahead in competitive nature and pool of talents

Europe is planning to keep the world cup for many decades with this Nations league

Lol you can’t even defend your stance u dey throw weak punch.

Bascovanveli let me reiterate. You hand him a late invite for the Libya friendly. We don’t even need to play him. He just need to make the match day squad.

Two things would have been achieved:

1. England would realize they have to take their hands off, because he is ours.
2. He would know he is very much part of the Nigerian project.

You dey yan say u wan call am to convince am why it’s better for him to wait. You don’t convince a player to wait, that should come out of their own volition. That’s like saying we don’t consider you good enough now. You need us more than we need u.





BascoVanVeli:
You must be bored because now you are not even making sense.

You are repeating yourself. I’ve already responded to this.

forgiveness:
Wenger body language then showed he was never counted among the numbers in Arsenal.

Iwobi's invitation to the national team and his performance for the SE made Wenger changed his mind to renew his contract. Let us tell ourselves the truth. I followed Iwobi that period.
Sports › Re: "The Super Eagles Thread: The Road To AFCON 2027, 2028 And 2030 World Cup by Joebie: 12:04am On Oct 06, 2018
You never know how his development would have panned out elsewhere assuming his arsenal contract won’t have been extended.
Isn’t Iwobi better of under Emery? He probably would have done better under another manager (not Wenger). How do you attribute his improvement to SE?

forgiveness:
Iwobi was an academy player before he played for the SE. It was after he played for us Arsenal decided to renew his contract. Even Wenger confirmed he never thought Iwobi will make it.

I repeat, without SE nobody go hear am.

You will call him to “beg” him abi grin
Because he doesn’t know how to assess his chances with both nations?
BascoVanVeli:
Yes because when he does get in he will have a chance of staying there for years whereas the chances of being a main stay at England are slim shady.
Sports › Re: "The Super Eagles Thread: The Road To AFCON 2027, 2028 And 2030 World Cup by Joebie: 11:58pm On Oct 05, 2018
I disagree. We probably won’t have even gone to the World Cup without Iwobi’s input.

Is it SE that has actually helped Iwobi this season?

Let’s stop thinking that we are helping these players but rather focus on how we can harness them. The relationship is a mutual one after all.



forgiveness:
Double standard. He will be nowhere without SE.

I promise you England got better at making Nigerian-descents commit to them since their Iwobi mishap. That’s how progressive nation’s think. They learn the right lessons. Today many Nigerians will say don’t even approach any AngloNigerian because of Tammy. Spot the difference.

You are not against that but you would rather call him to wait lol

BascoVanVeli:
Who told you I would against that? Bia Joe watch yourself o. Give me his number I will call him myself and tell him to be a man and wait but if he says no I won't lose a second of sleep.

I think England are more aggressive now in their recruiting of players with dual nationality than ever before. They tried to snatch Iwobi from under our very nose. That says it all. How do u rate Iwobi today?

komekn:
To be honest that's not a guarantee.

Iwobi was struggling to get into England U18 and I.mean struggling at that time.

If we call for a last ditch attempt on Eze or anyone else now, una go talk say we are too desperate, we are begging bla bla bla. Na only Nigeria get pride? Foolish pride.

And since the Iwobi slap on England’s face which was a national disgrace they vowed never to approach any Nigerian descent. No be so? grin

Exactly the mentality that is keeping us behind

BascoVanVeli:
Did England make a last ditch attempt at Iwobi yes or no?

You saying the NFF should have called him is totally ridiculous. Since when did federations start calling up players?

Now you want to say that the one year he has waited is so long that it should constitute a crime which is also ridiculous. Even Ighalo was made to wait while he tore the championship to shreds.

I would not call it small form by any stretch of the imagination.

tbaba1234:
Instead of encouraging keeper performances, we are carrying Ezenwa and Akpeyi as hand bags. Keepers like Afelokhai, Osigwe, even Maduka could have been invited. After all, It is unlikely that Ezenwa and Akpeyi will get a game.

My brother Danjuma is good no doubt. But we’ve always had players scoring in Belgium. I don’t think we stood a chance. Added to that he made it clear it would be a hard decision to make if he were called up by us.



forgiveness:
This season. He was already scoring goals before Rohr invited last month.

It’s not too late for Rohr to hand Eze a call up
I remember there was a certain young player invited by both Germany and England if I’m. Not mistaken. Let the player make a choice.

komekn:
I know you will find this a hard and bitter pill to swallow but have an open mind.

Look at Chuks Aneke in the very lowly league two he is supposed to be a midfielder but is the outstanding stand out player for club and in that league.

Have you thought about Josh Maja too goal scorer league 1,huh ❓

The NFF should get them attached before they blow up and it becomes problematic. I really don't know what they are doing with Ebere Eze as well.

Almost all Nigerian players I know that have played in Belgium have done well there.It’s definitely a great place for them to build some confidence.
cc12:
If Kelechi Nwakali wants to take his career serious and to the next level he should just terminate his loan deal with FC Porto B and find a mid-table club in the Belgium Pro League. See his mate Victor Osimhen gradually regaining form and confidence in that league.

Super Eagles Target Eberechi Eze Reacts To Maiden England U20 Call-Up
Published: October 05, 2018

https://www.allnigeriasoccer.com/football_pics/6060Eze.jpg

Queens Park Rangers young star Eberechi Eze has spoken of his happiness after receiving his maiden call-up to England U20 side.

The former Arsenal youth-teamer had been invited to train with the Super Eagles at their get-together in London last year but has been overlooked for selection by manager Gernot Rohr in the last eighteen months.

The English Football Association have moved fast to cap Eze following his imperious displays for Queens Park Rangers this season.

''You want to be called up for international football and it is a great honour to have been. It’s a really good milestone for me,'' says Eze to www.qpr.co.uk.

''I found out on Thursday night. I got a bit of an inkling from the Doctor as the FA had spoken to him and I’m really excited.

''It will be a good experience, I’ve never been involved before so I am looking forward to seeing what it is like.''

Eze is among fifteen players of Nigerian descent called up to England's youth teams for international fixtures in October but the attacking midfielder is the only player on the books of second

O lo lo loooo! Geezs! I don't think Rohr has the interest of the national team. How can blindly ignore Eze and still call Semi in the same league?

This bias chop I chop, man know man, na my brother selection must stop.

That was how he made us lose Danjuma just like that when he doen't need anything to play for us. Now, see how England wan take style hol am down. Very bias and annoying coach.
