Go through that list of fixtures again and examine the strength of oppositions and importance of the games. You can't compare any of those games with Enyeama vs Argentina.

BTW why don't you compare Ajiboye Vs Morocco and Enyeama vs Argentina.

Check my comparison very well,I picked their best performing match for Nigeria.

Ezenwa against Angola CHAN

Ajiboye against Sudan CHAN

Enyeama against Argentina 2010 WC

And if you want me to pick their worst match for Nigeria

Ezenwa against Ghana(WAFU)4-2

Ajiboye against Morocco (CHAN)4-0

Enyeama against Ghana (friendly in London) 4-1

Hope you remember this was the match that made Berti Vogts to rate Ejide ahead of Enyeama.

andrew444:
Bros all this 1 wey u call na keeper? Anyway I will take uzoho and ezenwa,alampasu wey never make feirense bench before,Okoye maduka don't really know about him dat much,he played for Düsseldorf in the German youth league,abeg I no wan see akpeyi there if na play stop am,World Cup no be principal cup

Kai Akpeyi don suffered,don't tell me you would do Escobar on Akpeyi,abi na principal cup dem dey play for South Africa league.

Taliban:
Sir kog45 no be small pikin o. He must have been around then.

Big ups to Sir Kog45, don't mind me, I should felt like harassing an elder red devils supporter

Oh boy!Teslim Thunder Balogun played for Eagles between 1947-1960 even my Dad read a lot about him not able to watch him live.

Taliban:
Nice write up, thanks a lot. But am surprised you didn't see any Thunder Baloguns match, didn't you like football at that time.

Haba watching Thunder Balogun even when he started playing for Red devils now eagles dey never born my MAMA.

Icon4s:
I don't know why it requires a lady to point it out that that Jersey is too flamboyant and childish.

For a woman to say such and men are saying they like it. Well then......... I comment my reserve.

Are you saying women are better when it comes to fashion cos am crazy when it comes to fashion and i want to say thumb up to the designer of that jerseys.

This is the first time am seeing serious talks about Nigeria jerseys and people who like it are winning though some like you have your reason to criticise it but in a nutshell is a cool jersey

Icon4s:
We don't have a goalkeeper yet. Until then.....

Haba oga icon4s we have goalkeepers oh but left for Rohr to close his eyes and picked one.

1.Daniel Akpeyi

2 Ezenwa Ike

3.Francis Uzoho

4.Dele Ajiboye

5.Dele Alampasu

6.Okoye Maduka

On Enyeama,Sir just forget him and start having your trust on these six cos he is not coming back.

Pls i want you to watch

Ezenwa vs Angola

Uzoho vs Argentina

Ajiboye vs Sudan

and make a comparison with Enyeama vs Argentina in 2010 WC and let see your analysis may be we can give any of these lads go ahead though we are not Rohr.

Mind you Enyeama remain the best but i don't see him coming back so we just need to decide with what we have for now.

Icon4s:
Good one Sire.

On John Chiedozie, I first knew him as the Lifebuoy soap boy before I knew he was a Green Eagles player. " This is John Chidozi *in Oyinbo accent* (That advert should be on youtube).Though a fringe player due to the quality of wingers we had in the team then (Odegbami and Adokiye).

I have said it before that most of our players of the 70s and 80s up to early 90s were greatly underrated and undervalued. If players like Segun Odegbami, Adokiye, Christian Chukwu, and Muda Lawal were to be playing today they would be in the best clubs in Europe. They would easily walk into the present Super Eagles.

On your comparison of Muda Lawal with Wilfred Ndidi, I still give it to Muda. Ndidi has yet to achieve close to what Muda achieved even in his early years in the Eagles. The player that would come close to Muda is Oliseh. But you are right about Oliseh being of the modern era. Most of Yekini's goals came from Oliseh's through passes. I have not seen Ndidi doing that yet. Ndidi is more of a tackler/blocker, not surprising as he started off as a CB. If Ndidi can improve on his long passes, then he will turn out about our best DM.

On Salako and John Fashanu, reminds me of those days when we were practically kneeling down for them to switch allegiance to Nigeria.

Top notch analysis from you especially remembering those market value figures. Tuale baba.

One more thing, you remember that story of "Thunder Balogun remember your left leggg!!!!!". Loz!!!!

Respect Chief icon4s the only Father of TheSuperNerd.

Yes you are right players like Segun Odegbami, Adokiye Aimesemeika,Muda Lawal,Christian Chuckwu would walked into starting line up of this present team and even US 94 players would find it tough to bench them and coach too would find it difficult to decide,pls check it out

Segun Odegbami vs Finidi George

Adokiye Aimesemeika vs Emmanuel Amuneke

Muda Lawal vs Sunday Olishe

Christian Chuckwu vs Uche Okechukwu/Chidi Nwanu.

Yes Ndidi still has a milestones to climb to be equal to Muda Lawal and Sunday Olishe but he has the potential.

***Oga icon4s i made a comment sometimes ago and i mentioned that Nigeria vs Tunisia match was 1978 WC qualifier(Odiye scored Nigeria)but you said it was1982 WC qualifier which i accepted

But going through Segun Odegbami's preview of yet to be launched book he said it was 1978 WC qualifier and that nobody should blame Odiye but him for the loss.

darkelf:
Stephen Eze for Leon balogun.

It's just like subbing subbing Dwayne Johnson for Adam Sandler in a wrestling bout.

These news outlets don start again

Don't mind those news outlets when player like Uche Agbo is begging for a chance

Taliban:
Sir Kog45.

Thank you for all the good analysis. Please could you tell me a bit about Muda Lawal, one of the most capped Nigerian players. What made him special and who can we compare to him in the present super eagles team.
Do you know about John Chidozie too
Finally I believed you must have watched live one of the greatest Nigerian footballer, Teslim aka Thunder Balogun. Please tell me what it was like watching him play.
Thank you.

Kai,Teslim Balogun,i did not watched him playing but read and heard a lot about him.On record he was the first Nigerian to play professional football with Peterborough and QPR in England.He was a leading scorer of Nigeria team known as UK tourist team captain by Dan Ayiam.

It was after UK tourist team tour of England that he signed a professional contract,very good striker according to history with powerful shot and good pace.There was this old fable that his shot ripped through keeper's stomach and came out at the back,just to tell you how popular he was and rated.

John Chiedozie remain one of the early Nigerian to play in Europe, he had his first professional contract with Leyton Orients in 1977 and played for clubs such as Notty county,Derby county and had a massive transfer of £375k to Tottenham Hotspur second to Justin Fashanu who was signed £1M and the first black player to be signed with a million pounds in the world.

He had nine appearanced for super eagles and scored two goals but find it difficult to dislodged Segun Odegbami who was a great winger and later Benjamen Nzeakor,Uwem Ekarika and Wole Odegbami to contend with but very talented winger.

John Chiedozie was one of the early Nigerians in English league cos at at that time we have Justin Fashanu Notwich and Nottingham Forest,John Fashanu Wimbledon and Asyon Villa,Remi Moses Manchester united,John Salako Crystal palace and Reuben Agboola Swansea.

He was a face of LIFEBUOYS SOAP in the 80s and was very popular on TV in one of LIFEBUOYS soap advertisement,conferred with order of Niger(OON)by ex President Olusegun Obasanjo.

Mudashiru Gbolahan Lawal named Mercurial by great sports commentator Ernest Okonkwo,he had his football career with Shooting Stars,Stationary stores,Abiola Babes and retired in his favorite Shooting Stars in 1991.

Muda Lawal had 86 caps and scored 12 goals as DM/CM for Eagles.He appeared in five Afcon namely 76,78,80,82 and 84.He was member of 1980 winning Afcon team captain by Christian Chuckwu.

Muda Lawal remain one of the best midfield player to come out of Africa especially Nigeria and till today it is an arguments who was better between him and Sunday Olishe but those who watched both always saying Muda Lawal was better but when we talked of modern day midfielder Olishe nick it.He was named Africa football ambassador by Nigeria government for his great contribution to the game and highly recognised by CAF.

Most of Nigerians midfielders in the 80s looked up to Lawal for inspiration.I remember Ademola Adeshina comprehensive interview on Nigeria football,he said Muda Lawal was the best midfielder to come out of Africa.He said when he got his first invitation to eagles through coach Father Tiko.He narrated how Father Tiko called him(Adeshina) and Muda Lawal to his room and said "look Muda i called this guy(Adeshina)to camp to learn from you not to displace you".As at that time most midfielders find it difficult to bench Muda cos he was a genius.

Muda Lawal die at the aged of 37 but was never benched in eagles colour through out his career than spanned 11 years.He remain one of the humblest Eagles player that listened to young Stephen Keshi 22 years at Afcon 84 when Onigbinde surprisedly named Keshi as captain.

On comparison with present Eagles,well am seeing Ndidi Wifred humble Muda Lawal and Sunday Olishe soon if he can maintain the tempo of his game and be disciplined but for now he has Muda Lawal's record to beat.

TheGoodJoe:

I do not understand this debate. Simple, most amazing Super Eagles Jersey ever.

Finito.

I'm a fashion crazy man and i love clothes with good qualities and i will not deceive you i love everything about the new jerseys.It represent cos it reminds me of how United States always makes statement with their sports wears.

Icon4s:
No o, Samson Siasia attended Gaskiya college. He graduated around 1982/83

St Finbars and St Greg's were highly feared all through Lagos then. But my school Cardoso high school won the 1989 Principal Cup beating those schools to it. Another good school was Araromi secondary school.

Emma Amuneke was a stand out player from that 1989 tournament. He moved to Concord FC few months after that.

A good number of our youth players then were picked from the principal cup for secondary schools and Youthsfun( or what was it called then?)

Not doubting you on Siasia cos i remember he was supposed to make Nigeria U 20 team to mexican 1983 with likes of Tajudeen Disu,Raymond Best but couldn't cos of WAEC examination but later made Moscow 85 with U 20 team,meaning some of this guys truly used their age.

Icon4s:
You sabi Ijora- Badia? If yes then you must know Gaskiya and Cardoso. These two schools have produced 4 Super Eagles players. Cardoso 3, Gaskiya 1. Amuneke and Siasia two of them.

That place be like football academy. Plus the whole Ajegunle as a whole then in the 80s and 90s.

Yes i know of Siasia but i thought he went to st Finbars with the likes of Keshi and Henry Nwosu.

Bros that your area is real home of grassroots football.

somehow:
So in the current SE, who are those who started from Nigeria that you're sure are using their right ages?

I would use may be cos i don't know them as a person but i can tell you that Taiwo Awoniyi is using his true age cos i know him very well.He is like a son to me,just cos of him i watched all our U 17 matches live in UAE though not a member of this present team.

The list

Mikel Obi..i saw Mikel Obi and Chinedu Obazi prior to 2003 U 17 WC it was during their training tour in Ilorin and what got me attracted to them was their fine boy face and skills on the ball,after training i had a chat with them and bought coke and told them they should keep on working hard,these two guys are damn young then,i cannot fault their age.

Iheanacho,Success,Uzoho and Alampasu...i met these young chaps through Awoniyi in UAE,honestly i can fault their ages.

Awaziem look damn real with his age cos he is growing not static.

Shehu Abdullahi too cos he is growing everyday

Ndidi Wifred though failed MRI but certain US born failed it too but his age look real

Mikel Agu looking at his age tells me something that the boy is real

Icon4s:
Your last paragraph has been what Tbaba1234 and I have been saying all along.

Talking about age. I know a good number of players that used their real age in football. Top on that list is my mentor: Emmanuel Amuneke. For the records, he graduated from Secondary school in 1989 (Cardoso High School, Badia-Ijora). He is my eldest brother's mate who graduated in 1988. Emma could not have been more than 18/19 when he left secondary school in 1989( people dey old for school those days). In 1991(2 years after leaving secondary school) he made his debut for our U23 team at the Cairo '91 AAG. Emma was born in 1970, meaning he was 21 in 1991. That was his real age.

Talking about Peter Ogaba. That guy was really small. He really encouraged most of we young players who were close to his age then. We bare the same first name (Peter). And I was nicknamed "Ogaba". A name that followed me till I finished secondary school. Some old friends still call me that name on Facebook. Hahaha. That boy was really small.

One of Emma's siblings by name Kingsley featured at the 1995 U17 WC. Same year he finished secondary school. Another indicator of real age.

Kai Ijora Badia na real ghetto,bros u go tough o,no wonder you dey play for Ajegunle,na you gangan be real Lagosian.

zicky:
I'm enjoying your comment, cos they are some doubting Thomas that never believe a Nigerian can play football using their real age. because they falsify their age, they believe everyone does same.

Yes people would doubt cos if a player spent 5 years in Nigeria league and still claiming U 20 but we have truly young ones and they are the one who spent just a season or two in Nigeria league before moving to Europe.

somehow:
Are we saying the previous generation of eagles and some of the current ones who started at home didn't slice their ages?

Even if it's 2 year reduction?

Especially those who started from the NPFL?


Not that it's peculiar to us alone and not just an African thing but need to know if some of us actually believe M...., O...., M..., E...... etc are actually the ages they claim to be on their bio.

Well i can't dispute your comments cos even in civil service in Nigeria people uses court affidavits to back up their age not to talk of footballers.

But we still have some who are true to their age,one thing that i noticed about age falsification is this,if a player find it difficult to have a break through early,definitely he would falsified his age to meet up.

I have a friend who used his real age to play local league due to his international passport cos he cannot do anything about it.He was a member of bound Japan 93 squad but later dropped but then he was in secondary school,immediately after secondary school he teamed up with Kwara bomber.

I remember a certain Iwuanyanwu player couldn't recalled his name who was called to U 21 and said he is 22 years that he cannot represent Nigeria cos he has represented Nigeria in some international youth tourney in Sweden and Finland as a secondary school boy.

Icon4s:
Yeah, some times it happens like that.

Remember a certain Peter Ogaba(RIP)? That dude played U17 at 13 and U21 at 15. And yet competed well. Some kids are just like that. Though those are just some exceptional cases.

Yes just trying to buttress your point on age difference between you and Amuneke and how you played together meaning is possible Mikel and Onazi to play normal street football cos have seen a Father and son played community cup together,area football doesn't respect age.

Icon4s:
Yeah, some times it happens like that.

Remember a certain Peter Ogaba(RIP)? That dude played U17 at 13 and U21 at 15. And yet competed well. Some kids are just like that. Though those are just some exceptional cases.

I saw Peter Ogaba in Ilorin at that time and was like what,this bros is small o with oyibo nose and see how fans gathered to look at him

I saw a very young Austin Ejide keeping for Gabros against Kwara United the following week a call to national team by Onigbinde, just too young and tall

I keep on telling people a friend with real age almost made Japan 93 squad but dropped at the last minute for equally extremely young Celestine Babayaro.

James Obiorah was dropped from Japan 93 cos he was just too small,the same year he was recommended for Kwara bomber trial,honestly it took the intervention of teeming fans before he was signed cos of his age and he later turned out as the best player in that season

I have some friends that were able to make local league when they are just 17-18 years of age,some barely after secondary school.

I remember how Osaze Odewengie made his debut for Bendel Insurance in a friendly came in the second half,that month he got national team invitation and was stand by player to 2002 WC.

We still have some of them young here in NPFL and how i wish next CHAN should not be about experience but real talents cos i know we have some extremely good midfielders in the league that are better than Rabiu Ali.

Icon4s:
I played football with Amuneke in Sari-Iganmu, Lagos. He was about 4 years my senior in Secondary School. What about that?

And of course in school, a class 1 student would never dare to come close to Class 5 students let alone to play football with them. But Emma and I lived on the same streer. So we played in the same team whenever we played inter-street football.

I was this kind of big kid for my age while Emma was the small type. So when you looked at us aside the slight height difference, the other major difference was the little beards on his face and muscle build.

Did I also mention that I played U12 in Ajegunle with Taribo West?

I just don't know all these fuss about age especially when it comes to Nigeria players.

My son is 8 years old by April clocks 9 but too tall for his age and played football conveniently with 10-14 years old,play basketball with ease with state U 12 team and one of the best 100 meter runner in U 12 category.

I remember in my year three in secondary school am already a member of school team and some of my seniors are 3-6 years older than me.

Oh not against their move especially Rabiu Ali at age 37 good for him but Orji going to Kazakhstan not something good even Eze's Bulgaria deal,better to play in South Africa or north Africa leagues.

Overseas offers pour in for CHAN Eagles stars Faleye, Kalu Orji, Gabriel


The CHAN Eagles are already reaping the benefits of their heroics at this year’s CHAN in Morocco as no fewer than six of them are now considering overseas offers.

SCORENigeria investigations have shown that two top clubs are jostling for 19-year-old Sunday Faleye, who enjoyed to great games against Rwanda and Libya at the CHAN.

An elbow dislocation will rule him out of the semi-final and final of the tournament.
We further gathered that defender Kalu Orji could also be heading back to Europe after a short-lived spell in Albania last year as he is now processing his travel papers to Kazakhstan after he received a concrete offer from that country.

Striker Gabriel Okechukwu, who scored the winners in both the quarterfinal and semi-final has received a rash of offers from Russia, Norway and Switzerland with that of Moroccan giants Raja Casablanca already public knowledge.

Eagles oldest player at CHAN, Rabiu Ali, has also been a target of a number of clubs in Asia.
This was the second appearance of the 37-year-old Kano Pillars midfielder at the tournament having also featured when Nigeria finished third four years ago in South Africa.
And even before CHAN, Stephen Eze and Eneji have reached an agreement with foreign clubs.

Giant central defender Eze has joined Bulgarian club Levski Plodiv, while nippy winger Eneji is expected at La Liga side Villarreal.
Eneji was scouted during last year’s WAFU Cup in Ghana, from where midfielder Afeez Aremu has since signed for IK Start of Norway.
Striker Kingsley Eduwo, who qualified Nigeria to 2018 CHAN, is already banging in the goals for new Tunisian club CS Sfaxien
Ibrahim Alhassan ‘Muazzam’ and Stephen Odey have since the CHAN qualifying playoffs against Benin last year moved to Austria Wien and FC Zurich, respectively.



Who is going where after CHAN?

Sunday Faleye – Austrian clubs

Gabriel Okechukwu – Russia, Norway, Raja Casablanca

Kalu Orji – Kazakhstan

Rabiu Ali – Asia, Africa

Peter Eneji – Villarreal

Russia 2018 WC Countdown: 127 days to go

37 years old Rabiu Ali? this gonna be a record signing.

Kalu Orji-Kazakhstan?better to remain in NPFL

darkelf:
I'm not absolutely questioning his inclusion.

It's just that he had hardly gotten game time of recent and his form has dipped.

If this continues (and I hope it doesn't), then frankly speaking, his making the squad won't be purely on merit

Now, I hope he regains his form. Dude worked hard for us to get to the mundial

Yes you are right and that's why i said in Onazi vs Etebo debate that Etebo can only displace Onazi in camp.

If Balogun failed in camp why not he can be benched or even replaced but who is going to replace him.I hope he get more playing time.

darkelf:
Leon balogun?

Why if I may ask sir

It's simple he had a great WC qualifier and picked as the best Africa CB though he had average game against Zambia and not too good match against Argentina which normally happened sometimes but notwithstanding he still remain number one defender on Rohr' s plan.

BascoVanVeli:
Osas was the biggest culprit on the day defensively. Go back and u will see that he in part responsible for every single goal.

Osas Okoro defensively is zero,seeing any skillful LM or LW on him mehn serious issue.

During NPFL invitational tournament,oh my God there was this MFM player who turned him into passenger on the field.

Honestly better for him to go back to his RW position and maintain than exposing himself unnecessarily.

Check out Morocco first goal,Osas was a trying to mark already marked player and left a player he supposed to mark to do the running and it led to a cross that resulted to first goal.

CC:goldfish80

TheSuperNerd:
Good.... CM (box-to-box) is one of Etebo's best two positions. The other is LM.

You are right that he is not in direct competition with Onazi. But the thing is this. If Mikel and Ndidi are sure starters, then the other third midfield slot (depending on the formation we play) will fall to one of Onazi, Etebo or Ogu.

If Etebo is picked, it means Ndidi plays DM, while Etebo plays CM.

If Onazi is picked, it means Onazi plays DM while Ndidi plays CM.

If Ogu is picked, it means we get to see how they both played against Argentina with Mikel.

It all boils down to Tactics and formation chosen. But in the end, people must remember that Onazi is assistant Super Eagles Captain and is a favorite to start games too.

Our starting WC midfield is still likely to be Mikel-Ndidi-Onazi. Changes will be subject to tactical tweaks and more. Time will tell.

My man your last paragraph sum it all

TheSuperNerd:
I recall he was hailed for the Mali and Luxembourg wins.

Yes and some are even suggesting he was ripe for Chief coach of Super eagles.

TheSuperNerd:
I concur. Exactly what I want others to see too despite the flaws. He may be technically deficient but he has surpassed Keshi's best for Nigeria at the CHAN. #FactWeCannotIgnore

Thank you,i just don't know why we always takes things personally especially football, the man Salisu as you said may be technically deficient but that doesn't give us audacity to curse him.

I know if he is a white man trust some Nigerians fans they would make excuse for him,why are we always harsh on our local coaches and even home based players, this thing should stop,let's criticise with a balance minds.

Yes he lost the final by 4 nil but we should know it's final though the team was poor but there are ways we should knock the team not cursing.

Icon79:
Bros, don't mind them. With Nigerians, it's always a zero sum game: if one player is doing well then the other player gotta lose. Why can't we just praise God that our boys are doing well and just leave it at that? Must everything be turned into this useless rat race of who's in who's out

And in addition, Etebo isn't even a direct opposition to Onazi either. Eddy Onazi is DM. Although Etebo is a utility player who can play most positions on the pitch, his favorite position is AM. Hence, this head to head comparison is uncalled for. Bottom line, I see both of them making the team.

Take it from someone who knows, Onazi is gonna make the team even if ends up sitting on the bench. Do you know why? First, Onazi is the vice captain. Secondly and most importantly, Onazi is important for the locker room. If you watch most Super Eagles locker room clips, you'll see players like Onazi and Kelechi leading the chants ... such players are leaders and they are very important for the locker room. Most coaches would make room for players like them purely for their leadership qualities even if they are not good enough to start; especially taking cognizance of the fact that your skipper, Mikel, is very reserved and quiet.

As regards to Etebo, like I have said several times before, he's gonna make the team because he's a utility player. You need such players on the bench.


O pari

God bless you

Humility017:
so from this...I think etebo have same opportunity as onazi to fight fr a place in the super eagles.....

Yes Etebo have the same opportunity like other 34 players to fight for a place.

Truly 35 players would be in camp but i can tell you the following 10 players are sure bet baring any injury Mikel Obi,Victor Moses,Leon Balogun,Ekong Troost, Wilfred Ndidi,*Onazi Ogenyi,Odion Ighalo,Kelechi Iheanacho,Shehu Abdullahi and Alex Iwobi.

#RUSSIA2018 | ROHR SETS QUARTERFINAL TARGET FOR EAGLES


Posted By: Eugene Boahene

Super Eagles manager Gernot Rohr is convinced Nigeria will better the second round tradition by reaching the quarterfinals of the FIFA World Cup in Russia.

Nigeria have reached the second round of the tournament three times from its previous five outings and the German tactician is poised to make history by going a step further which will see Nigeria equaling the feats achieved by Cameroun in 1990, Senegal in 2002 and Ghana in 2006.
No African team has ever gone beyond final eight at the tournament. “We have set a target to reach the quarter final of the World Cup and for this reason, we have taken only the best players who are fit and in good form.
We have a good programme going to Russia with series of friendly games that will put us in shape for the World Cup,” he said.

Rohr, who in January extended his for another two years, confirmed that the team would commence camping in Austria ahead of the tournament with 35 players stating there would be three players for each of the outfield positions with the exception of goalkeepers which would be four or five. He reiterates that there are vacant places to fill before his World Cup squad takes shape.

source: thebreakingnews.com

Good info,anything short of Qtr final is a failure.

Whao three players for each position except goalkeeping which would be five meaning three starting eleven with two reserve keepers.

Outfield players 3×10=30 players

Goalkeeper 1×5=5

Total outfields players 30+ goalkeepers 5=35 players

Guys in the house pls select 35 players based on Rohr's plan.
