Clement is English. And he said his opinion is simply because he is English. Although he is saying the boy will make his own decision but as the coach of Swansea he don INDIRECTLY put pressure on the boy by even commenting on the matter like that. His antics will not work. However, Pinnick need to improve on this aspect going forward. If I were him, I will say we are making a move on Tammy, when the matter don already reach FIFA hand. Stay ahead of your competition. soetanoreoluwa: |
![]() u mean say only u no fit defend firstlady? make u call us come chop too oh when that time reach oh.. hahaha ![]() Anyways there is no cause for alarm. He is available for selection, in that he has not been capped yet by Nigeria. That's a clever answer. Abi no be Tammy issue we dey? do4luv14: |
PR runs na.. just like how they deal with transfer rumors.. Pinnick should not be staring all this. TheSuperNerd: |
@bolded That's a good standard. But it's not true with the SE today or before, even with the Nigeria-bred players. komekn: |
We still have the likes of Iorfa and Ehizibue who never dream of consideration yet.. He needs to make amends and put on really solid performances in future oh. Kog45: |

Shehu is the man behind all those corporate sponsorship deals. I always knew what he could do. soetanoreoluwa: |
Libero don go AWOL |
SuperNerd247 hmm hmm |
Maybe Gomez should be playing in one of the top 10 leagues in the world. Else Osas should be given some knocks today for such a poor performance. I will have to drop him from my list for Algeria. ![]() TheSuperNerd: |

we will win this game 3-0 ![]() |
The only way benin can score us is via penalty ![]() 50' Okoro Moses will be having nightmares tonight. Gomez Charbel has really tormented the right back Super Eagles material ni TheSuperNerd: |
Believe me we would have dropped a link earlier if we had one.. meanwhile enjoy our commentary. iamdynamite: |
Are we not missing Eze? ![]() TheSuperNerd: |
That their number 11, Charbel Gomez, has been dangerous
|
Make Ariwa take time oh. He has already been booked. |
foreign-borns or foreign-breds don't get a free pass. They still have to face the competition in the SE. it's not a sin to get them to choose Nigeria. But playing for Nigeria now and in the long run, they have to earn it. No one is giving them a free pass. Mujtahida: |
Seems the Benin forward dived and was booked a second time. Koukpo Marcellin has been sent off for a second bookable offence. |
I dey follow commentary like you oh. it's not on DSTV.. I guess it's on startimes and GhanaTV TheSuperNerd: |
okay my brother. Ogbeche had a good run years later. but anyways, let's focus on the Benin match Mujtahida: |
Like Rohr rightly said, nobody complained when Agu replaced Mikel in Uyo. Hahaha.. it didn't seem like we missed Mikel one bit in that game. I remember we even scored another after he was subbed-out. But hey, we all want to see what Ogu can bring in a competitive match, though it is clear Rohr consider Agu ahead. Let's not forget Agu also once started in a friendly and did wonderfully well -- if I'm not mistaking. Have you not seen my squad for Algeria already? I'm not going to throw Tammy in yet, because I don't expect that switch to be official before the year runs out. TheSuperNerd: |
I think transfermarkt. com is one tool many of us should master. I have learned a lot from there. Also whoscored. com . Let's all learn how to search with these and more. I like whoscored .com for stats and ratings. I consider their player of the week most objective, because it considers actual stats with a level playing field in view. We can all come up with our best XI and we will hardly agree all the time, but stats removes all sentiments. Which is why a paper can name Awaziem in its best XI but another paper would not name him there. However, editors are a professional voice, and their opinions should also be respected. Mujtahida: |
Swansea City boss Paul Clement admits he would like to see Tammy Abraham choose England over Nigeria The young striker is set to turn his back on England for Nigeria, but Clement admits he would rather Abraham choose the Three Lions Swansea City manager Paul Clement admits he would like to see striker Tammy Abraham stay with England - but he insisted he would not influence the Chelsea loanee's decision. Abraham, who has gone through the England youth system, appears set to switch his national allegiance to Nigeria, according to the Nigerian Football Federation. The striker is eligible to play for the Super Eagles through his father, but Clement admits he would rather see him pull on the Three Lions jersey. Swansea City manager Paul Clement "I don't know about that," said Clement. "I have seen the article but I have not asked him as there are more pressing issues at the moment. "There would be more travel involved, but whatever he chooses to do is up to him. "From a personal point of view I would like him to stay with England. I say that because I am English and he is a talent you want involved in the national side." Swansea City's Tammy Abraham set to switch international allegiance, according to Nigerian Football Federation president However, despite his preference for the player to choose England over Nigeria, Clement was adamant that he would offer impartial advice to the 19-year-old - and not try and sway his decision. When asked whether this sort of situation was more prominent in modern football, Clement said: "It is, and it is down to the player. "They may see a better opportunity to play regularly at international level or it can be a belief that is where their identity lies. "But it is down to the player. I have no idea what Tammy will do, he has come through the English system puts him at an advantage. "I will give advice if he wants it, but I will not try to influence him. It is down to him and his family." The debate surrounding Abraham's nationality comes as the young striker continues to adapt to life in the Premier League, having scored 26 goals in the Championship last season with Bristol City. The major selection dilemmas facing Swansea City as big stars face huge disappointment this weekend And Clement has been impressed with how Abraham has dealt with moving up to the top tier, saying: " He has made the biggest step of his career, I am not surprised at how he has done. "He has done fine and will get better. When you make a step like this, going to the Premier League, it is challenging and difficult. "He has done some good things and some that could have been better but we are working to help him and the players get better." |
Whether you are sentimental about foreign-bred or not, I must say we must give Pinnick and co praise for turning a new chapter in the war for players' allegience. I must say Pinnick and in fact the new NFF has made playing for the Super Eagles more attractive than ever before, regardless of the problems we still face in national football matters. We have improved in packaging and the use of influence and better approach (compared to the past) in the way we go about convincing these young talents to turn up for Nigeria. Let's give credits when it is due. However there is still room for improvement especially is it has to do having a solid football structure domestically. |
Lille has not been in good from anyway, and he may just be back between the sticks. TheSuperNerd: |
oga chill na.. packing the bus has never been our thing, even before Rohr. One thing I can tell you for sure. We are not playing for a draw in this match. We know we are more than that. We knew we could have beaten Cameroon even away. chill, Zambia is coming to our backyard. Let them make all the noise now. Expect the usual danger men to do the damage. Should they focus on Moses, it would be over. Should they take their eyes off him, it would even be more catastrophic. Wait and see. TheGoodJoe: |

Yes Rohr has already set conditions of his return. 1. Recovery off course 2. Getting a new club so he could play regularly. 3. Accepting the leadership structure in the current team, and not setting any conditions of his own. Please let me know if I misquoted Rohr in any way. So it's not going to be automatic, but he could well return in time before Russia. TheSuperNerd: |
NFF – Chelsea Ace Victor Moses Played A Role In Tammy Abraham Decision To Snub England For Nigeria September 21, 201702 The Nigeria Football Federation (NFF) has revealed that Chelsea wing-back Victor Moses spoke with on loan forward Tammy Abraham on phone to convince him to switch allegiance to Nigeria. Abraham has represented England at various youth levels but just like Moses who played for England at the 2007 U17 World Youth Championship, he is still eligible to represent Nigeria at senior level. Talks over a switch of allegiance to Nigeria were held with his parents and his agent Neil Fewills which according to the president of the Nigeria Football Federation Amaju Pinnick ended on a positive note. During the talks which were held last week, Moses spoke to the forward who is on loan to Swansea City from Chelsea, and convinced him to commit his senior international career to Nigeria. A report on the official website of the NFF confirmed the influence of Moses during the meeting which had the father of the player also in attendance. DONT MISS ==> Mikel Motivated Me To Fight For Chelsea Spot- Victor Moses Salutes Super Eagles Captain Also working in the favour of Nigeria is the close relationship Pinnick who is the President of the NFF has with the father of the 19 year old forward, as according to Pinnick they were childhood friends. Full name Kevin Oghenetega Tamaraebi Bakumo-Abraham, Nigeria are hopeful of capping the forward in their last World Cup 2018 Qualifiers tie against Algeria, if they are able to secure progress to the tournament with a win against Zambia next month. --OwnGoalNigeria Icon4s: |
