That’s the point
Danielnino00:
You are right.. problem is that his club form isn't replicated in the national team...
Sports › Re: "The Super Eagles Thread: The Road To AFCON 2027, 2028 And 2030 World Cup by Joebie: 5:43pm On Oct 01, 2018
His club form is excellent. We can’t take that away from him. It’s not like there is a guarantee the other forwards we have will bang that number of goals there.

Danielnino00:
Ighalo.is a smart man grin

He went to the chinko league where he knew he would score well.. Then grabbed his chance against Cameroon and cemented the CF role.

In as much as I want him out,I gotta admit he will stay longer in the team... Already has 18 goals in China this season...

Na Etebo go play AM lol

TheSuperNerd:
Let the K.Nwakali baking in the Oven continue. I wholeheartedly agree.

But with no natural AM on that list of midfielders in Mikel's absence, I hope Rohr can look the way of Ebere Eze in the nearest future. The kid is another real deal talent in the CAM role.

And yes, Iwobi is wayyy above any of the CAM prospects we are even looking at be it K.Nwakali, Ebere Eze or even Ejaria. But I hope Rohr deploys him there oooo coz Rohr sees Iwobi as an LM and LW first and I hope that changes soonest. I really hope to see Rohr deploy Iwobi in the AM role since we have the likes of Simon Moses and Onyekuru on the left in this list. Even Ahmed Musa is present (even though he can also be deployed as a CF- best in a two man attack).

We go see shaa.

That’s one area I will continue to fault him. Abi he wants to wait till next WC before he realizes we lack GK backup. Ezenwa and Akpeyi agents dey pay better money o grin

Danielnino00:
One of Enyimba player has been called up by Benin republic for their afcon qualifier self.
Maybe Rohr is still rewarding Ezenwa for his display last year against Cameroon grin

Rohr keeps faith in Ighalo.

Danielnino00:
Just 4 midfielders eh? .Perhaps we will see Iwobi in the no.10 role .
I wonder why Mikel didn't make d list .He is back from injury already.

Simmy exclusion is no surprise at all.. Simon injury has made him stay that long..Would have preferred him to Ighalo though grin


Still a very good list...

I will have to research on that because Rohr started with a void in our RB position.
komekn:
As it stands currently under normal circumstances Dominic does not merit a call up.

However, I used the term normal circumstances.

But I was referring to the period when he was a regular for Wolves who were in the Championship at the time. He made is commitment and Rohr even visited him.

However, he invited to camp a few youth players but not Dominic.

I am asking people to not be superficial but have some depth in looking at the issues. Considering the involvement of Dominic senior in contesting presidency with Amaju.

Is it wrong knowing how our politics of election always ends in animosity, rancour and hostility. To speculate as to thier being other reasons for his exclusion.

To your last paragraph, Rohr has met with others as well without any progress on sight. the truth is Iorfa will not be invited on the back of his performances several years ago alone. If he is currently having lots of game time and he is ignored, yiu will have a good argument in your hands coupled with the fact that Aina got his breakthrough in SE from the Championship as well, we have Semi Ajayi and Jamilu Collinsaso from the 2nd-tier. Don’t cry about Iorfa until he starts having enough game time.

komekn:
I expected to see some intelligent comments with those looking at matters with depth and looking at the context and aligning that too our characteristic local dynamics.

Dominic Iorfa Snr. contested the NFF Presidency and lost, he has been involved with the extremely politicised NFF for a long time. You shoul know that we dont practice politics with honour , integrity and fair play in Nigeria.

I was in Warri during that Election and i know lobbying in our politics is not about persuasive arguments but how big your "Ghana must go" bag is.With

At the end of these elections there was bitter rancour and resentment between the victors and the vanquished.

So how do you think knowing our attitude of vehement antagonism in politics, Dominc Iorfa Jnr. was looked at huh With Love, compassion, warmth and affection huh Finally after Rohr net with Dominic Jnr , why then did matters not progress.huh

Agreed without reservation.

He has done nothing beyond score one senior professional goal.in his entire career.

You are better off with a lower league striker who is scoring regularly.

the coach demands physicality. Are you saying with Sadiq’s guile he cannot pull it off? If not that Kanu played in the EPL I believe you would have said he won’t be able to cope there. Or are you saying the SPL is better than the Serie A?

komekn:
Absolute Balderdash.

Once again you have allowed irrational emotive negative prejudice to befuddle your reasoning.

Firstly, I know Gerrard personally and he is not racist. Neither is Beale his assistant.

Then secondly if he was, why is the first name on his team sheet Oviemuno Ejaria. I could count the multiple number of black players he was trying to get into Rangers but that would be over kill.

A long time ago I pointed out the deficiencies in Umar Sadiq's game. My conclusions then we're that he would struggle in League one, it seems he would struggle at an event lower level.

The English game as well as the Scottish games are physically intensive. His supposed physicality is an assumption not proven. He excelled if you can call it that in the Italian and Belguim league. But this league may be too much for him.

As for racism see news clip below.

http://www.hitc.com/en-gb/2018/09/25/could-umar-sadiq-soon-face-pressure-from-rangers-starlet-dapo-me/

With regards to his performance there is a widespread view he is not good enough.

https://www.hitc.com/en-gb/2018/09/27/do-could-umar-sadiq-leave-rangers-as-early-as-january/

But then this is football, he can still improve there is a chance. But he has a lot of work to do and the other players are not sitting down looking at him.
Sports › Re: "The Super Eagles Thread: The Road To AFCON 2027, 2028 And 2030 World Cup by Joebie: 7:03pm On Sep 29, 2018
No be struggle “Abrahams” dey since joining Villa. You may tear up the Championship 2 years ago, there is still no guarantee. Think Imoh Ezekiel who is suppose to be bossing the Jupiter League based on his exploits there several years ago. Well it’s too early to say. Make we siddon look. But coaches have their preferences just like in the National team.

komekn:
Is this the same Sadiq Umar a number were comparing to Tega Abrahams and Ighalo and said he was better.

I remember saying that this guy would struggle in League one, maybe I overestimated his attributes.

When I talked about him I was harassed with a barrage of the usual vitriolic rhetoric from the sentimental emotive brigade.

I don't have to say anything more dohuh ❓

You know they have always been saying something. Let’s see something on ground. Too early to talk about deals with NFF when their track record is as bad as nonexistent

DrLikita12:
They said they've sorted out some issues and they're back. I would only recommend them if they are the only viable option tbh. I'm not sure how many customers they have or if they are being honest about the issues they had- I'd rather give them time to settle down and then watch their progress.

Is TSTV even operating?
Icon4s:
I did not even propose the NTA. I said I would prefer they strike a deal with Star times or TSTV for like 3-4 channels that will air live matches. DSTV is already loaded with different leagues and so the NPFL may not get more than one live game per week like the previous years with them.

TSTV? Is there something I don’t know?

Danielnino00:
Most TV stations in Nigeria usually focus on one major aspect of broadcasting : news and entertainment mostly..
That's why we have satellite TVs...
Again,most TV stations in Nigeria will rather show a political rally than to broadcast a football game..

The best option is for LMC to strike another deal with supersport or like chief icon4s said,let them contact star times or tstv for that...

Kai. That was my way of saying a whole Nigeria has no TV station that is capable of broadcasting our league with average quality at least.

Danielnino00:
It doesn't necessarily have to be a national TV station. Most Nigerians don't even watch our national stations like before ..
They should revisit their deal with supersport. that's the best option for now...

How good is the NTA broadcast to start with?
Icon4s:
Just a sinle national station means one match per day. And two per weekend which is not enough.

The NPFL should be able to strike a deal with either StarTimes or TST to have at least 3-4 dedicated channels for the NPFL so we can have more options of viewing different games from different venues.

On your 4th point, is there a national TV station that can deliver on this?
Danielnino00:
The aiteo cup is being played on a neutral venue that's why...
However, away win is possible in the league if the clubs and lmc can fix four problems

1) Provide air transport for their team.. Road transport is risky and exhausting
2) Provide adequate security at match venue...even better to install fences between d stands and the pitch to stop fans violence against away teams
3) Install better pitches
4) LMC should secure a better broadcasting right than the one they have with nta so we can be sure when dubious calls are being made during away games by the referees...
