pls house i want to book flight to UAE with Kenya airways any one with experience(Ithe long delay of the next flight will one get a comfortabe place before the next fight of about 7 hrs difference. thanks

If you have not booked yet, I will advise you to stay off Kenyan Airlines. I will never board Kenyan Airlines again except there is no other choice.

They won't offer you any place to rest, except you are ready to pay for Guest Room within the Airport.

The problem is that the best player play in academies. The NFF should do more to include the best ones so as to ensure we see the best talent.

I expect majority of the Academy Players to be signed up by the Clubs participating in the Competition.

These ones are babies. Plateau united U15

This will go in a long way to help re-shape our football in Nigeria. The Boys are really young and definitely look under 15. The best among them are probably gonna be selected for the next U17 National Team.

This will help Manu Garba to scout for the best U17 Players easily now. All he needs doing is following the League bumper to bumper. Kudos to whoever is responsible for the Competition.

Sodje is right. Nothing is spectacular in Rohr's tactics and style of play. It's more than huffing Ball up and down, hoping to pounce on a loose Ball based on Luck, rather working for it.

If indigenous Coaches had the same backing as Rohr, they would have delivered, but this is Nigeria - where don't value our own.

Oliseh managed a Club, to some extent, successfully. Late Keshi managed two national Teams apart from Nigeria, successfully with records breaking.

Siasia had top-class instincts with the U23 and U20 national Teams respectively. Amuneke is doing outstandingly well with Tanzania national Teams. Manu is unraveling Talents hidden in the country - yet we keep saying indigenous Coaches ain't good enough for the National Teams.

Back the indigenous Coaches, and the rest shall be history - coz they would deliver, entertaining, good football with trophies and medals.

How some Peeps do get times; following this Thread bumper2bumper, dropping Epistles day and night, befuddles me.

Well..... Fingers ain't equal, some might actually be CEOs or Managers with less Assignments on the Table. If not, Some Topics wouldn't have been discussed at all, rather treated as DOA.

Perhaps to fast forward the time, some are taking solace with endless, back and forth Arguments spiced up with Emotions and baseless Allegations.

Really pray Westham can go to the Lion's Den, come back unscathed, rather with the Lion's Head.

But the Mofo of a Club is losing Home and Away. Expecting them to win tomorrow is like expecting Poco to drop Sexpacade on the Ashawo and Beer Palour Thread.

Special thanks to the Gayners for not extending the Gap. There is still light at the Tunnel's End, coz it's not Night Time yet.

Iheanacho is going to AFCON, mark my Words. Nigerian Fans sha..... The same Kelechi that was once regarded as Hybrid of Messi and Ronaldo?! Rated over Mbappe and Rashford?!

The Lad is still young, and I honestly believe he has learned his Lesson in a hard way though. He wouldn't have imagined himself ever been dropped from the National Team Call(s). Rohr has proven to him that he's dispensable, thus I expect him to have buckle up by now.

We should be honest with ourselves, it will be difficult for Nacho to bench Vardy at the moment. Maybe next Season, he might get a Shot, and I will never advise him to seek loan, rather fight to displace ageing Vardy as first choice Striker.

Nacho is talented, very talented, and he has not lost it all. All he needs are; commitment and consistency. I wish him best of luck, and still believe in his Talents.

forgiveness:
He will receive the stick if he fails woefully.

Nothing new...... Coz he's being receiving it since we were ousted from the World Cup!

forgiveness:
I know Rohr is not going to invite that boy. Then it's better he brings Mikel Obi.

I hope he brings Mikel as well, but I doubt it. it's all gonna be cleared soon.

Kog45:
Shut door on new invitee?

Yeah..... He's not gonna invite any new player (s) till after AFCON.

forgiveness:
I just checked our mildfield now and I discovered only Ndidi is a DM while Ogu and Etebo are CM. That's why we need a decent DM to deputise for Ndidi.

After going through players that fits into the role I discovered Ajayi has a better stats in this current season in that particular role. He has scored 7 goals in that particular role while Mikel Agu and Anderson Esiti have 1 and zero goals respectively.


Besides, Mikel Agu is currently nursing injury. I think Semi has advantage over them due to his versatility.

In addition, we still need a decent CM in the mold of Mikel Obi but if he's not available Rohr should go for Eze.

Egbon try to be a Realist for once. Rohr has shut door for any new Invitee, and it's future impossible tense..... Expecting Eze to make the AFCON List.

He should be vying for Shirt at the U20 level.

komekn:
There is NO CONTEST between its a simple choice one that is proven, established and consistent over a number of seasons. And add to that VERY EFFECTIVE.

Just one handicap with Onuachu he has no PACE.

Osimhen this is his first season in first team football essentially, is he the top striker of the somewhat lower Belguim league❓ That's expecting too much, is he then one of the top 5 strikers in the league. No he is not, he is doing good but he has not set the league on FIRE, yet. Great potential but a lot more work to be done.

Essentially he is an average good young striker in the Belguim league.

Onuachu is within the top 5 in his much lower league but he brings so much more to the team. Hold up play, presence, vision, Aerial dominance, etc.

IMO l see Onuachu's name signed sealed and delivered to the SE for this AFCON.

Agreed without reading it all!

Danielnino00:
Right now Iheanacho going to the afcon is 50-50 If he can score a few goals before d season ends then he will be back in contention. And if Osimhen is drafted to the u-23 again,then Nacho spot would be guaranteed...

I agree without any iota of doubt.

forgiveness:
I don't really know why Rohr keeps inviting Ajayi though I heard he is doing well in the Championship and also versatile but I don't really think he's a better option.

I will rather take another player than take Iheanacho.

Well, it's all down to Rohr and his backroom Staff. He knows the Players, he knows what he needs, I just hope and pray he selects the best Legs for the Eagles.

Shalom.
Salaam.

forgiveness:
Please, remove Azubuike and Iheanacho from the list. Thanks in advance.

Make I comot Ajayi too?! Cos I grouped them together!

Iheanacho is going to AFCON, mark my Words.

Andrew444..... Are you a supporting Striker?! LMAO!

charlesemeka85:
Better bro! Make we forget hype and face facts. If you are an ardent follower of the exploits and performance of our midfielders in Europe this correct campaign azubuike okechukwu will not make the top five list.

Anderson esiti of recent is doing very well in the Belgian league, freide who is oshimeh's team mate in Belgium though a German youth teamer on loan from hertha Berlin have been doing pretty well so far in the Belgian league, the much maligned Mikel agu have been a steady performer in the colors of Victoria serubal, igbekeme is a delight to watch in the Spanish 2nd tier, Abdul zubairu have been massive for rijeka for the past 2 seasons, then the likes of ndidi, Mikel and etebo are in a different world so I see no reason why players like azubuike will be mentioned here as a solution to our problematic midfielder or even as a possible replacement for John obi Mikel!

I mentioned him because he's the Captain of the U23 Team and Ajayi's Name escaped my mind. As I said, I really hope for Mikel return like the majority of us here, but not certain he's gonna make the final list - solely my opinion, and not hating - rather based on Observation.

forgiveness:
Except Rohr wants to be sacked then he can drop Mikel.

Egbon mi, nothing go happen.

do4luv14:
Hmmmm, super bascovanveli I bind and cast out that injury from OSIMHEN Amen

oga oasis007, this table you dey shake so with ' nacho must go to afcon '
nah one corner ah dey , dey look you with one eye....

Iheanacho is needed in the Team, I foresee him to prove many Doubters if he plays as a SS in a 4 - 4 - 2 Formation.

charlesemeka85:
And his perfect replacement is azubuike okechukwu?

I've edited the List, cos a particular Name deserves to be on it with his Performance week in week out with his Club. His Name is Simi Ajayi. I expect him to make the List if Mikel is dropped based on the Formations I suggested.

Don't misunderstand me Bruh, I ain't saying Mikel is not needed in the Team, rather based on my Observation which Earthquake has buttressed - seems Rohr is kinda done with Mikel in the Super Eagles.

Truidstar:
Am civil bro, I respect your opinion. But just stating obvious facts.

You are on point bro, just trying to avoid confrontations. Arguments ain't meant to be won only, but sometimes to learn as well as expose the Audience to what they know not - instead of chest-beating with Ignorance.

Feel you bro!

Earthquake2:
Its no secret Rohr wants to phase Mikel away from the team and It is unlikely that Mikel will continue with the SE after Afcon.

But not inviting Mikel to Afcon would be a gaffe Rohr will not want to make, if not for the sake of the understrength nature of our midfield but for uproar and backlash that would bring

You seem to be getting my Point than the Toddler gnashing Teeth while being emotional with his senseless Contributions. The bolded is exactly my Observation and the Reason I didn't include him on my List.

Truidstar:
Coach Gernot Rohr has revealed Super Eagles captain, Mikel Obi, is not yet ready for a return to the national team despite featuring regularly for his English Championship side, Middlesbrough

Rohr, speaking at his pre-match conference ahead of todays 2019 AFCON qualifier against Seychelles, explained that Mikel Obi is still nursing an injury on his knee.
He was quoted as saying“Obi Mikel is playing well at Middlesbrough and he is doing well now, but there is still a little problem with his knee and it is not the moment for him to come back to the team in these conditions.
“There are so many games for him to play for Middlesbrough. They are fighting for a promotional playoff spot. And he told me it’s not the right time to return. But if Obi Mikel is very fit and has the motivation, if he shows that he is better than the other people we have, the door is open.

“I’m not like Joachim Low (the German coach) who announced that three players are out of the German national team because you never know what might happen. There could be injury or loss of form.

“We are watching what is happening and we hope he (Mikel) can come back one day because we need experience. We now have more young players than the last list,” he disclosed

The first bolded..... Rohr didn't guarantee Mikel would make the final List, rather he throws the Door opens, not just for Mikel, but also for others who are ready and fit.

The second bolded..... I guess it clarifies your last submission about Rohr wouldn't have brought Simy to the World Cup, if Simon wasn't injured.

Truidstar:
Look at the last World Cup final 23 list. Was there any major surprise? If not for the fact Moses Simon was injured, Simy Nwankwo would not have made the list. What will make Rohr change over night and start handing invites to every Tom, Dick and Harry? Mikel is going to Afcon, behind the scenes or not.

Easy Bruh! LMAO!

This is not War. None of us is part of the technical crew nor Members of the NFF technical Committee. This is simply a Forum - a Forum bruh.

If Mikel makes it to AFCON, I have no issue with it, infact it's gonna make the Team stronger. I need to clear the Air before the Pull-him-down Gang swarms on me.

We are simply discussing Scenarios, I dropped the Reasons for my Observation and as well asked Questions.... Can you be civil with your Engagement?

Lawd..... It's difficult to drop Opinion(s) without being countered emotionally. Lol!

Where did I say in my Comments so far, that Azubuike is better than Mikel?! Or compare Players?!

I clearly noted that it is simply "strictly my opinion", yet a Toddler is ranting for no tangible Reason.

Well, I understand how it rolls on this Thread, you can't separate Emotion from it.

Truidstar:
Please read quotes by Rohr before the games against Seychelles (away), Libya (home and away), South Africa (away). This will give you all the info you need. Mikel is going to Afcon. Azubuike is a fantasy. Besides Rohr said no new invites.

Drop the Links or Quotes nah. Goodjoe is known for doing the needful to back up his Submissions, and I expect you to emulate him.

Perhaps I'm missing something and I expect you to shed more light. Some definitely gonna benefitted from it too bruh.
