Said it here last year, that in my dream we lost to France in the Round of 16 a Pogba late goal.

If my dream is anything to go by it means we will get to the quarter finals

My football dream prediction is always opposite

Aclsports confirms the news, Joel Obi starts and Ekong is captain

But why would Ekong be the Captain when there's Balogun and Victor moses on the line up? i hope it won't be an issue cos it's quite strange, even thought it's only a friendly.

So I just saw on Twitter(@bundesligavibes) right now that Jordan Touringha through his agent has informed Rohr that he will wait for Germany's call up

Just saw this on oluwashina okeleji's twitter. PR STUNT or not

Ibe, 22, was contacted by the Nigerian Football Federation (NFF) for an initial conversation about his international prospects while a teenager at Liverpool.

The NFF made contact again shortly after his move from Liverpool to Bournemouth for £15million in 2016.

However, the youngster wanted to fully focus on settling into life under Eddie Howe at the Vitality.

He never closed the door on one day representing Nigeria at senior level.

Ibe has not ruled out forcing his way into Gareth Southgate’s Three Lions set up.

But Nigeria want to fast-track him into their squad.

The attacker has starred for England from Under-18 to Under-21 level.

After a tough first season on the South Coast, Ibe has enjoyed a good run of form recently and starred in the wins against Chelsea and Stoke.

TARGET MEN Arsenal, Bournemouth, Brighton and BurnleYy, players who should be bought in this summer including Alban Lafont and Gary Cahill
Ibe was on target for the Cherries in Saturday’s win at home against West Brom.

But Super Eagles boss Gernot Rohr has dangled the carrot of a World Cup in front of Ibe at the end of the season, and it is an offer being taken seriously.

Ibe has made 27 league appearances scoring two goals with six assists this season and has played a key role in Bournemouth’s charge into the Premier League top ten.

Tbaba1234,read somewhere DT England has released deir list for the upcoming friendly games,but TAMMY NAME WAS CONSPICUOUSLY MISSING!..CONFIRM BOSS

Yes he has been demoted to the U-21. It's on sky

MetalJigsaw:
A credible source is what determines the authenticity of these speculations

He is fine I just saw pictures of him in training now, on his club twitter handle

MetalJigsaw:
The tin wey dwu even vex me be say why e be say Na two of our most in-form players come carry injury at this crucial time? Why not Akpeyi or Echiejile? Or even Agbo?? No disrespect oo

But I thought it was clarified here as well as by the media officer that Ebuehi will be fit before the friendly?

Has he pulled out?

Humility017:
you're blessed for the bolded....
so many a time we accuse the whites of racism but deep down we more guilty of prejudice and jaundice.....

Mark my words....these young lad omijii Nigeria gonna loose that boy to the United States.....not because he never wanted play for us..but because we were so complacent...
if Nigeria was Hungary....they will never told for otigba to be given a second chance after the previous snubs....

Oga calm down, we can't loose omidiji to the US not under Pinnick and Barr Seyi Akinwunmi's era. Do you know what has been put in place to ensure he plays for Nigeria, or you think inviting him for the Super Eagles unveiling was just mere formalities? Lol is part of the process Oga.

Nigeria, Zimbabwe hold talks over potential pre-World Cup friendly

If negotiations sailed through, Nigeria would meet Zimbabwe in a pre-Russia 2018 World Cup, officials of the Zimbabwean FA have disclosed.Nigeria has lined up some friendly matches to prepare the Super Eagles for the World Cup, while the NFF is still negotiating with some African countries for more of the games before the team flies to Russia.
The Super Eagles will meet Poland in a friendly next month in Europe. Now, Zimbabwe wants the Super Eagles to add it to the itinerary. The Zimbabwean Warriors want to face a tough opposition in their team rebuilding process and they believe Nigeria fits the bill perfectly.

Zimbabwe Football Association President, Mr. Philip Chiyangwa, while discussing the state of the country’s football yesterday said they were looking at making Zimbabwe a football powerhouse in the Southern African region. He said the association’s plans for the long-term future is to feature in the upcoming regional tournament, the 2019 Africa Cup and Nations and the 2022 World Cup.

Mr. Chiyangwa said they will be inviting a technical director for the national team from Europe but did not disclose the name or the country where the technical director will be coming from. In addition to that, he said the country is going to start playing international friendlies with football powerhouses on the continent.

Chiyangwa said the negotiation with the Nigeria Football Federation (NFF) for the match is already at an advanced stage, adding that they are also talking with Cameroun. Zimbabwe, unlike Nigeria has had torrid times on and off the pitch. Off the pitch, the Zimbabwe Football Association is riding in a sea of debt, with estimates claiming the debt may well be over US $5 million. ZIFA’s creditors internationally have made the nation pay by approaching FIFA and having Zimbabwe thrown out of World Cup qualification campaign for the 2018 World Cup. Domestically, creditors have approached the Courts in bids to recover their money, factors which have led ZIFA property being attached. Recently, ZIFA had to operate at the house of its President after allegations it had failed to pay rentals at the ZIFA Village to the city council.

Super Eagles of Nigeria
Super Eagles are set to play Ukraine on March 27 in another World Cup warm-up, SCORENigeria has specially gathered.

Both countries have yet to meet at full international level.



Ukraine did not qualify for the World Cup in neigbouring Russia.

The Nigeria Football Federation (NFF) have already confirmed pre-World Cup friendlies against Poland on March 23 in Warsaw and against England on June 2 at Wembley.

The NFF technical committee, which sat today in Abuja after their inauguration, discussed the Ukraine clash.

It was disclosed that Ukraine requested for the friendly and the NFF have since accepted this request.

The Eagles are also shopping for opponents for another friendly window on May 27 with the game to be played in Abuja.



There's no confirmation to the above just a speculation.

safarigirl:
preparing more for the European opposition than fir Argentina?

I hope the NFF is not practicing the art of "see finish" on Argentina. We should have them in mind as well

I read where he talked about playing more Europeans and 1South American but doesn't look like it will happen.

edi287:
I honestly hope we can pull this off. It'd be a huge coup for Rohr

more like a huge coup for the national team a good replacement for balogun and for one the future. Will give us max of 10years

On Felix Uduokhai, He says he is still thinking about Nigeria's offer. Still weighing his options..

Sir Tbaba please paste the full interview if you have it thanks.

[quote author=tbaba1234 post=64105053]On Felix Uduokhai, He says he is still thinking about Nigeria's offer. Still weighing his options..[/q
He prefers the u21 to our national team, i don't know about you guys but this doesn't sound good, reminds me of Tammy. Preferring the U21 to a whole Senior team is a slap in the face shouldn't have said the last part.

i am really wondering why the NFF are yet to confirm any friendly. Asides from the one confirmed by Poland in march nothing else, the England game is just that rumour.

Could it be because of the distance from Poland that they are yet to confirm the second friendly? But then again they should try Columbia cos they have Senegal in their group.
Rumour of this friendly, that friendly nothing concrete it's annoying and I know it's the start of the year but? hmm

Could it be that the Super Eagles isn't that attractive?

Just me wondering and thinking out looud

Humility017:
to be honest wit you...I have never seen a foreign groomed player so much loved by Nigerians even prior he made his debut...

almost all Nigerians who watched the epl wanted him play for us....his desire and debut for Nigeria would have been so much celebrated...even you sir icon4 for the first time...I saw you admire and canvas for the inclusion of the young lad in our super eagles team...but he messed it up....

only pinnick can help him...that if...he is really serious playing for us...and not to use these scheme to draw up Southgate attention....so as to make 3 lions world cup team....
that lanky kid can be very cunning....I repeat very cunning..and deceptive

I Actually agree with your 3rd and last paragraph, I think so too he's trying to get the attention of Southgate, the boy reminds me of the cunning tortoise in my childhood story book. He smells trouble, I don't want him in our national team.

[quote author=daveP post=63864231]Yeah. its goal. nt reliable to you?

Goal news isn't always reliable. Tammy cannot make a U-turn, he can't even try it or think about it and this is because of what he said, also don't rule out the British press they can end his career if he dares it. He wasn't even on the bench for yesterday's game, boy hasn't seen anything yet.

mazimee:
He is only saying that the youngman has greatly improved, hence deserve a chance to prove himself like everyother prayer in the team.

But shouldn't it be left to the coach to decide? That's all I'm saying

BascoVanVeli:
His end product has been null and void. I have spoken with some Akwa United fans and they were baffled about his inclusion. I personally know he is a good player but I don't feel he has done enough to even get looked at, talkless of being a mainstay.

Agent at work maybe?

World Cup: Super Eagles door not close on CS Sfaxien's Kingsley Sokari, others

Lagos – Amaju Pinnick, the Nigeria Football Federation
(NFF) president, believes that CS Sfaxien of Tunisia
forward, Kingsley Sokari, may make the Super Eagles squad
for the World Cup in Russia if he continues his fine form
for the North African side.
Sokari was in splendid form for CS Sfaxien in the out-
gone year after earning rave reviews with his three man-
of-the-match awards and November player of the month
award.
Yet to attract the attention of Super Eagles Technical
Adviser, Gernot Rohr, Pinnick noted that Sokari remained in
watch light of the technical crew ahead of the World Cup.
“I am really delighted to know that Kingsley Sokari is
doing pretty well in the Tunisian League considering the
fact that he’s a player with good quality.
“Besides, he is not a stranger to coaches of the national
team having made a mark for himself at the 2015 FIFA
U-20 World Cup and now with CS Sfaxien in Tunisia.
“It is important for you to understand that the door of
the Super Eagles isn’t close yet for Sokari and other
players who are displaying beautiful performance for their
respective clubs in Europe and Africa.
“We want the best players to don the green and white
jersey of Nigeria and I see no reason why some of these
players won’t be invited when preparation for the 2018
World Cup commences,” Pinnick said.

Nobody should force any player on the coach please. It's not like pinnick is the coach or something, let the coach choose his players Mr Pinnick thank you very much.

Happy new year everyone, we all will achieve our plans for this year.Amen
I pray the Super Eagles soar to Semi final and from there you never know anything can happen. Amen
