It's the 89 set.

Benedict Akwuegwu and Babatjide Oguntuase.

The both look truly U 17.

TUALE Baba…yes real under 17 but saw Oguntuase last in Ilorin during Kwara United trial at university of Ilorin mini campus field.I nearly cried for him,telling me and a friend his sad story cuz it was a surprise seeing him in such trial.

charlesemeka85:
I no sabi that one 🤣🤣🤣

I remember Akwuegbu then cus Kickoff magazine were singing his praises. He was scoring for fun then in the Austrian Bundesliga. I think he once played for Strum Graz then

let’s leave that one for old brigades here

charlesemeka85:
Benedict Akwuegbu

Correct…and the second guy?

AndSunGorilla:
Very young players probably the 1985 set abi? Before we started the age cheating nonsense. Honestly IBB finish this country.

TheSuperNerd:
Thank you Maidaboi. This is another angle to why I laugh at Peseiro's call for/contact with Alhassan. Alhassan has what we need in the middle but truthfully he has been benched more times this season than played from the start.
He hasn't hit the form he showed before his injury so Peseiro's search for MF reinforcements with the profile I know we need in the team should have taken him towards Portugal. To a lad in form. To a lad doing well regularly.

Alhassan has some of the skillsets we need in the middle just like Nwakali and Onyedika does in tandem with an Iwobi. But Alhassan needs more time to alsobag more minutes under his belt.

That UCL game was ONLY his 4th start all season.

Doctor,Peseiro wey Dey invite Aribo babu game na him you Dey talk say Alhassan needs more games to play for him.

kingsways:
It is completely absurd that seven human beings, maybe even corrupt human beings, can overturn the choice of 200 million Nigerians

As it stands today, even if all Nigerians vote for a candidate, seven Supreme Court judges can overturn it and it will stand overturned.

Actually not even seven, only four of them can overturn the vote of all Nigerians because it's majority decision that prevails there

Pls tell us Nigerians choice

Odunayaw:
Uzoho fulfils what quota then?

Stephen Keshi made US 94 on quota?
Joseph Yobo on quota 2014 WC? Kanu Nwankwo quota too in 2010 WC?…..I don’t think it’s about quota but our style,so nobody should raise eyebrows on Musa.

**Uzoho na Peseiro quota

Joebie:
Can you say the same about Ahmed Musa? My question is what is Omeruo’s form these days in the GWG? In the past, yes, he has been one of our most reliable players.

Joebie baba,I remember Omeruo came to the rescue after we lost at home to Guinea Bissau with Bassey and Akpoguma as CBs….Omeruo and Semi replaced them in the second leg and did well.

The question should be what is the form of our CB these days,not only Omeruo.

Napoleon55:
I'm dumbfounded as I read the long epistle over a common joke.

Now he want the NFF to take the matter very serious,that is possibly punish Boniface over a harmless post.

May God deliver us from the hands of these unserious men in governments.

I remember the same Bashir came hard on Davido believing Davido used a background that looked like mosque in one of his videos

When Sadiq Umar’s little daughter was not on hijab he came hard on him,so not surprised seeing him knocking Boniface post.

Bony was wrong and good that he took it down,meaning apologies but really surprised that someone like Bashir served in Buhari administration.

chrisooblog:
Omeruo has/is a faithful servant to the SE and no agenda will wash that away. With him we've won AFCON gold and bronze. Qualified for WC twice reaching the second in one of them.

Using his club struggles as agenda to down play his immense contributions to the national team will not fly.

Make dem bring any super eagles defender wey better pass Omeruo in the last 10 years with eagles stats….na to Dey call him championship failure,mediocre and crap but their overrated players never once convinced us in GWG despite EPL Bla bla blu ratings.

Super eagles players performances to them should be based on league rating and go to that league proper the said players are average or below average,some are not getting games

Naso dem go Dey hammer Simon Moses anyhow and praising wingers who are bench warmers by giving us fallacies on pure theoretical thinking which never existed in reality.

No wonder we Dey suffer for pushing regional and third division keepers as eagles keeper and used eagles to rise but fact,they are still lacking in basic goalkeeping skills and it cost us Afcon and WC

zuchyblink:
Watch OKECHUKWU Ezenwa's performance against Cameroon in Uyo. If say na Uzoho or Maduka we for consede like three goals.

True talk

HitlerWasRight:
Peter Obi will never ever be president of Nigeria

Are you God to say Peter Obi will never be president of Nigeria,remember some said Tinubu will never be president…anybody can become Nigeria president.

zicky:
I think the first post talked about Enyeama being called to the SE while at akwa united which is not true, we all know Enyeama moving to enyimba prompted his call to the eagles. Enyeama was a darling of the aba fans even after moving to rivals iwuanyanwu nationale. Our coaches should look inward to solve this goalkeeping issue.

He was on eagles radar right from Ibom star but got his eagles invitation in Enyimba after fewer games.

As you said our coaches should look inwards,imagine monitoring NPFL division two player,reason why I gave kudos to Amusa Adisa for the opportunity given to Enyeama,Ejide and Aiyenigba.

I digressed a bit in my response to let people know the important of scouting in our leagues.

BascoVanVeli:
Osayi is a proper defender. I have no doubts he can play up front but let's not underestimate what he brings us at the back.

I thought it was Fenerbache that converted him to Right back?well delight to watch at the back

mostob:
Sir, please try to use the 'quote' button whenever you want to reply to a particular post. It will make it easier for the people to understand you better.

I thought the villagereporter want to go iconic like blue pen thegoodjoe but better for him to use the ‘quote’ sincerely am impressed with his inputs here

Wujio:
So long as the FBI files are not released, Nigerian judiciary will play the ostrich. Tinubu forged the certificate warranting immediate disqualification but would the owners of Nigeria agree ?

Do you guys really understand FBI or you are just playing politics.

If Tinubu is really under FBI investigation since he left as Lagos State governor with no political office for good 15 years FBI would have done the needful.

Well,anyhow,Supreme Court judgement Yes or No,Nigerians suffering continues

DABIGATRAN:
Enyeama played for Calabar Rovers but it was actually at Enyimba that he got his first national team call-up

Enyeama played for Ibom Stars which was formerly known as Mobil Pegasus of Eket, but now Akwa United.

He moved to Enyimba from Ibom Star then a division two club in Nigeria league,in fact he met Dele Aiyenigba as first choice in Enyimba.

He did not played for Calabar Rover.

Enyeama eagles sojourned was a story of destiny child.He joined Enyimba 2001/2002 season after Enyimba friendly match with Inter Milan which Enyimba lost 7-0 with Aiyenigba Dele in goal.It was a match organized by Ronaldo to mark his return after long absence due to injury and money raised was donated to United Nations Relief Fund for Africa,Asia and South America less privileged.

Enyeama was discovered playing for Ibom star by eagles goalkeeper trainer Amusa Adisa but didn’t get invitation until the goalkeeping crew realized Ejide was not ready after Scotland friendly.Just two months in Enyimba he was invited and had a good game against Kenya in a friendly.

The big question,a keeper that kept in WC against England was a division two player a season ago in NPFL but just some months in NPFL division one,now the best Nigeria keeper in Nigeria football history.

Time to give Amas Obasogie of Bendel Insurance,Christian Nwoke of Sporting Lagos,Kayode Bankole of Remo Star and Stanley Nwabili of Chipa in South Africa league the chance to compete in eagles cuz we can be having bench warmers as Super eagles keeper.

TheSuperNerd:
You know the honest answer to Kog45's question is a BIG NO.

Bassey has actually not done enough in the GWG to put a stop to Omeruo being invited.

Be truthful!

God bless you Doctor

Danielnino00:
Funny enough,many of us were hoping Osayi would come in and compete for the wing position when he first burst into the scene in the championship... Until Fenerbahce converted him to a right back

Osayi style of play showed that he was a thorough winger,reason why he join the attack often….I don’t mind seeing Aina at the back and Osayi in the front…it happened in the 80s with Aimsemeaka and Owolabi.,also 2002,Babayaro and Udeze.

Icon4s:
Meanwhile, these one were never hyped here.

Bright Osayi should be up there but sometimes football is funny,very good player,reminded me of Chidi Odiah.

ChrisKels:
How did you mean one is static and the other a roamer? If Osimhen is the static one, why not bench him for Awoniyi while Boniface roams, after all, the EPL is better than Serie A?

Or better yet, bench Boniface in order to play two static strikers with no one to roam. Oga you can not leave out your player that plays in the EPL just because you want a balance and a stable team. Don't tell me that please. 😡

Oga Chris stop getting at my boy in the name of sarcasm 😵‍💫cus I remembered when he celebrated his goal against São Tomé with John 3:16 inscription on his shin guards you came out to condemn the celebration style…wetin my boy do you Oga Chris,pls leave him out abeg or else I will engage Mujtahida or Safarigirl to sue you o Abi make we use Sharia flog you with 100 koboko😁

Icon4s:
The thing is many of us here derive joy in talking down older players just to promote a new, untested player. It has always been like that. It is that new untested player that is always the best player to them.

Eguavoen bowing to the pressure of fielding too many new players in our starting 11 against Ghana in Abuja was largely responsible for why we couldn't win that game.

Sincerely am not against younger players coming in but they just need to tell us that they are better,just check out Osayi and recently Bruno.

Jojodjo:
So you've all written off Akpoguma? ?
Well, it's no surprise since some of you wrote off Ndidi before his resurgence.

Kevin Akpoguma hasn’t done much and I was surprised cuz I rated him highly before joining eagles.I don’t really see that zeal in him like he was forcing himself to play for us.

ChrisKels:
If I had my way, I would try to form a good central defensive partnership between Akpoguma and Bassey or Jordan

Akpoguma has not for once proven he is ready and his partnership with Bassey against Guinea Bissau didn’t work out,I don’t know of Jordan.

ChrisKels:
Rest bro. Calamity Omeruo that was sodomised twice by a plumber like Tokelo Rantie and the other hungry looking boy called Tau? Make we hear word abeg. Omeruo is crap.

Calamity or crap,why continue inviting Omeruo if other CBs have proven themselves to be reliable in GWG and I will never agreed on cus Bassey is playing in EPL he is better than other CBs who are playing in other leagues.

komekn:
Bitter plain truth

Even world class CBs fumbled seeing Messi not to talk of Omeruo,but still better than Bassey who failed against Balde of Guinea Bissau.

komekn:
Osayi rejected a number of EPL clubs guess got more money in Turkey and playing time.

EPL Bassey is better than Omeruo in Turkey and Ebuehi in seria A is better than Osayi in Turkey since we are basing it on leagues.

komekn:
You can't be anonymou mouse 🐀 in a mediocre league in a dead football ⚽ club. Being consistentlu average and below average then all of a sudden you come to the SE and you become a Lion and world class.

Sorry bruv it doesn't work like that .

Simple question,has Bassey done enough in eagles to put stop to Omeruo invitation.

Bannedlargedx2:
As a team, you want all your best players on the field simultaneously except they’re all playing in the same position

Well you are right

Bannedlargedx2:
On paper, Boniface and osimehn are our 2 best players and it’s the responsibility of our coaches to find a way to play them simultaneously. Can you imagine Spain benching iniesta for xavi

It is not about best players but how to find real chemistry to do the needful.As it stand Osimhen and Boniface on paper looks ideally as two front men

do4luv14:
But Sir he is not their secretary , And I don't think the mixed up is from his office too

Sir,Kanu Nwankwo is the chairman and the secretary work under him,so both should be blamed for the mix up
