Pls answer my question cos i want to derive a point which will lead to a healthy discussion.

You don't ask me to choose between bitter Kola and Kola nut when there is also Carrot and Sugar cane in the option. Please let us be constructive here.

Kog45:
Haba wetin the guy do you.

Well it's guy like Nwakaeme that make guys asking for Martins returns.

My man be sincere,pls pick between Martins and Nwakaeme.

I had high hope on the guy after John Ogu hyped the guy saying that if em no score in their club , no party. I looked at his Statistics, he was indeed firing goals, em follow for the top scorers in their League sef . Nigga got me anticipating only to play like it was a street match.



To your question, why would I pick between the two when Onyekuru, Kayode and of recent potential "Orji Okonkwo is there?

Humility017:
and what was his impact in those two matches....if he had played well....
albeit rohr would have still kept him in his books...
even Sylvester igboun played better....

any player would have played those two matches if they were invited...but it will take an exceptional player to live a mark...
even onobi and salami played those matches....

Oboabona, Ambrose, Igboun, Akas and Oboroakpoa all played those matches

Croatian Coach With Links To FCIU: Super Eagles Defense Weakest Link, Attack Very Dangerous

Croatian Coach With Links To FCIU: Super Eagles Defense Weakest Link, Attack Very Dangerous



Croatian coach Zdravko Logarušić has provided the lowdown on the Nigerian national team ahead of their very important 2018 World Cup opener against Nigeria, and has written off the Super Eagles defense.
Nigeria manager Gernot Rohr played with a four-man defense during the World Cup qualifiers, with Abdullahi Shehu, William Troost-Ekong, Leon Balogun and Elderson Echiejile his preferred formation.


In his own words, Logarušić claims he has been contacted by one of the richest men in Nigeria, Ifeanyi Ubah, to handle the Nnewi based club ahead of the new season.


''According to what I have observed with the Nigerian team, their defense is the weaker part of the team, but they are very, very dangerous in attack,'' Logarušić told sportske.jutarnji.hr.

''Also, they are exceptionally strong in dead ball situations, they are dominant in heading.

''The first match at the World Cup will be the best, because it will be full of motivation and confidence.


''If they do not get it, then they know they will fail so it is very uncomfortable to play with them first.

They have to be monitored well, have all the information they need.''

Nigeria and Croatia face off at the Kaliningrad Stadium, Kaliningrad on June 16, 2018.

Why are you guys always targeting forgiveness for God sake cos i don't see where Agali mentioned Kayode.

Pls the headline was misleading and not good for our discussion here and don't be surprised if you see Nwakaeme dropped for Orji.

My man anything can happened when it comes to player invitations or was it not the same Agali that said no more invitation for new players.

Who is Nwakaeme That one that is occupying space ? Believe me, if it left for me to decide, that guy's picture where he was celebrating with Iwobi, I Ndidi and co after our qualification should deleted from the rest of the team celebrating.


That guy have no value in the team, all I want is performing young talents.

Mujtahida:
Hahahaha hahahaha hahahaha. Ebuehi eye don open Nigeria don open him eye to the sweetness of big game.

I hope he makes a wise decision by staying, he will have a better playing time there now. He can move after the world cup.

Mujtahida:
Anyone who gains like this na wa be that. But then I don't see the grounds for such apprehension. There's a vacant slot for a CF. Nwakaeme is the one I feel would likely lose his place not Iheanacho or Ighalo if they are fit and in form.

Nwakaeme is another below average that should be thrown out through the window. His expliots in Israeli League earned him an invite only to mess up when he was supposed to deliver. The Dude scored goals in his League like Martins

Icon79:
True, considering that he's only 19. But his football IQ betrays his age tho.

All in all, the future is bright for naija footie, especially if we can retain Rohr and the NFF keeps its house in order.


O pari

I just checked out the few times he played as a late subtitute, his rating was cool,also his goals came from those late subtitutes.

The Fulani people are the Prince of Nigeria, they do no wrong

They shoud go to hell then.

Icon79:
Yes, I have watched Orji played once. He seems like the real deal. I will definitely support his invite - 100%.

He might be the target man we've been looking for.


O pari

I don't really know him or his style of play, all want is a team with red hot players. A team the reserve and subtitutes would be as dangerous as the first eleven.

Rohr’s Scout Agali Hints – Bologna Forward Orji Could Take Kayode Eagles Spot



Red hot Bologna forward Orji Okonkwo could be in line for a first time call up according to the head scout of the Super Eagles Victor Agali during a radio interview monitored by Owngoalnigeria.com in Lagos.
Okonkwo has scored three goals in the Serie A from seven substitute appearance for Bologna, and Agali confirmed he is no doubt in the picture of the Super Eagles ahead of the World Cup in Russia.

” Every player doing well will be called up when the team resume preparations for the World Cup next year, just as some players not doing well for their club could lose their spot”, Agali said.
Although he didn’t mention the names of players who are on the brink of losing their national team spot, he however failed to provide any assurances that on loan Manchester City forward Olarewaju Kayode will be given a look in.

Kayode has struggled for game time at Girona since joining them on loan from Manchester City, and the forward who is presently out injured has also not made good use of the chances he has been given by coach of the Nigeria national team Gernot Rohr.

komekn:
Young does not mean better.

Apart from KC that set of U17 players all approaching 21 are still largely potential.

Osimhen that has been highlighted even invited to the SE is yet to play a full game for Wolfsburg and struggles to make the bench. So he is essentially a youth player.

So who are the young players that we have that can be compared to Obagoal name one

Onyekuru is there, another worthy mention is Paul Ononachu

2018 World Cup: Sergio Aguero finally speaks on being drawn alongside Super Eagles



The striker told Lbero, ”The second half against Nigeria I could not see, because I was in the Hospital, but when they told me how it panned out, I asked, ‘what happened?”

”That happens sometimes, it was because they thought of me, they were scared, I do not know.”

ADO Den Haag Worried Over Ebuehi's Situation : He Became A Nigeria Intl At This Club
Published: December 06, 2017
Dutch Eredivisie outfit ADO Den Haag are frustrated that Nigeria right-back Tyronne Ebuehi has yet to put pen to paper on a new deal, six months before the start of the 2018 World Cup.
The Super Eagle can depart The Hague as a free agent in the next six months without the club recouping their previous investment on the player if he doesn't ink a new contract.
''We have been talking to him and his agent from August,'' says football manager Jeffrey van As to Voetbal International .
"It is not easy, he has to choose whether he wants to develop further at ADO, or whether he prefers to go to a bigger Dutch club or abroad.
''He has become an international at this club, enjoys the trust and can also take steps here. It's up to him.''
Ebuehi, 21, joined ADO Den Haag in 2013 after stops at SV Hoofddorp, VV Young Boys and HFC EDO.

.com Dec 6, 2017 9:16 AM


FEATURE: The Super Eagles as underdogs in Russia
The much-talked-about friendly between the Super Eagles of Nigeria and the Three Lions of England is very much on track latest reports suggest.

had before now reported plans for the Nigeria, England friendly but with a caveat that the game will be dependent on the outcome of the World Cup draw.

And with Nigeria avoiding the English team in the group phase of the Mundial, the Nigeria Football Federation are said to have now confirmed that Super Eagles will tackle England in a World Cup warm-up in June.

“We plan to play a friendly against England in June before the World Cup,” Sanusi was quoted as saying on ScoreNigeria.

The venue and other details are expected to be finalised
shortly, the NFF scribe further said.

Both Nigeria and England will feature at next year’s World Cup.

The Eagles are drawn inGroup D along with Argentina, Croatia, and Iceland, while The Three Lions are drawn in Group G with Belgium, Panama
and Tunisia.

Both countries have clashed once at this level, in November 1995, when England won 1-0 at Wembley courtesy of a David Platt headed winner.

forgiveness:
You can lie oooo.

Where is the line?

NwaAmaikpe:



If faking his death didn't still make him blow; showing off a limp preek won't either.

Lol, the thougt that the guy even left a record label wey dey give him small populality still shock me. I wonder how he go manage blow

Egedeboy:
wasnt really buying the idea of a Martins comeback but the clips I am watching has changed my mind.Nigeria needs Martins badly. But we also need J.J Okocha to back-up Mikel in midfield. Also Michael Emenalo should be recalled to central defence. Samsion Siasia could add bite to our attack.
lastly, Peter Rufai should look for a club to gain form before the world cup.
:DRemember , form is temporary while class is permanent.
Best of luck Super Eagles

safarigirl:
he cannot respond because he has no leg to stand on- not even a prosthetic one

I just checked the line-ups, Martins came on for Musa in the 75th minute. He played as a Forward, which means, oga dey near net for almost half an hour, but e no score

Funny enough, you know who scored that day even as a defender? Efe Ambrose

Then followed by a midfilder Moses Simon


In the first leg against Swaziland, the old Man played full 90 minutes and could not even prove anything in the goaless match againts ordinary Swaziland.

Goke7:
forgiveness pls respond, we are waiting

Waiting for another excuse

Bayern no gree PSG drink water drop cup tonight, Chelsea don equalise.

beautydutch:
guy take ur time

Lol see warning

Lukaku have finaly scored, I hope you all will give him a breathing space now.

forgiveness:
Anyhow, records and statistics proved he was part of the 2018 WC.sorry.

Statistics that doesn't have his name on the score sheet
Statistics that doesn't have his name for an assist as a striker is surely not the Statistics your Martins will be happy with.

forgiveness:
Point of correction, Obafemi was part of the team that qualified us for the WC. Gbam.

How by occupying space in the two matches he played against Swaziland

forgiveness:
Failure to qualify for two Nations cup is also greater achievements na.

If not that I know this Obafemi Martins, when he was in his prime and now, I for think say na Messi/Neymar/Cr 7 equivalent. No doubts you are doing a good job with his hypes here.


You are doing wonders more than some Agents, you deserve a Pay for this, though an effort that will end in futility.

Goke7:
oh sani keita is the one who will blame now, who are we going to blame for martins failing to deliver against teams like kenya and swaziland? sani keita too?

Kaita Sani

forgiveness:
You for ask, where em play?

How is that an issue? Brain Idowo came through from the defence and did Argentina bad thing. Even small Ebuehi would would have gone home with an assist from the defence too.

Like I said earier, With all his hype here, I don't expect him to be average, We have enough average already. If we are going to get another average, it shoudn't be an old Martins but rather a young lad

forgiveness:
Swaziland.

Why e no score ?

With all the hype here, I don't want him to be average, We have enough average already. If we are going to get another average, it shoudn't be Martins but rather a young lad

I just read on front page that FG budgeted 3billion for Super Eagles for 2018 World Cup.

Abusule007:
Henry onyekuru is striking for anderlecht today

I thougt his Coach said Henry can never be his top 9,How manage he come dey for front ?
