U are the one who needs to relax and take 2 or 3 chill pills. I said "klopp should have given that boy a chance" obviously that means Taiwo Awoniyi didn't get said chance, so what is your point? Obviously nothing we say here will change anything so let us not get childish, this is just a debate

You echoed what I said... "It's just your wishful thinking" .

Musa Yahaya needs to get out of Portugal QUICK and relaunch his career.
How a midfielder with incredible ball control ended up as a defender still baffles. Today, he is now struggling to get game time in the Segunda Liga. In life one needs to know when to reset.

Kog45:
Yes Ola Aina wouldn't have made England team but would Olise made the team?NO but big question why Algeria over Nigeria?is it football reasoning?if it is then wrong decision...

Ola Aina and Alex Iwobi were thorough Nigerians raised in UK with real Nigeria culture.Mind you both live in the same abode with both parents having strong ties as family friends.

Their parents have strong influence in their decision making,remember Ola Aina father with one of Aina siblings were in the stand watching Aina in Uyo ditto to Old Iwobi too.

It was a great feat for Ainas and Iwobis seeing their sons reoresenting Nigerians.How I wish other parents can have that great influence.

Realistically, both Iwobi and Aina with their present form and the competition in the English team won't have amassed up to 5 caps together with England....
They picked the easier option....

We are getting the crumbs....

He should have gotten out of Porto long ago... He got too comfortable there!
He was one of the most talented player in that U-17 class of 2013... I'd put him behind Iheanacho self...

you are right. Time is about to run out. He is almost 24

In all honesty i see Algeria winning afcon and now this lad has opt for them with the kind of good coach they've got.... they'll rule africa for a while and they always qualify for world cup

Algeria will not even qualify for the world cup

The irony of the matter is Iwobi scored against England. Football can be funny. These players start to appreciate the country who gave them a chance more and more as they mature with the team.

Sainty92:
Am still waiting for Olise to come out and clarify the public. If he really choose Algeria, then the agent didn't play us. Rather it was Olise that played us

His agent swayed him to play for Algeria. Then again, playing alongside Mahrez, Atal, Benhrama, Bennacer etc is more tempting than playing for us.

Joebie:
When Algeria becomes first choice. And France second.

I no fit sleep man. This news don kill my moral finish. After all the mouth way I make with this guy

humility33:


But Rohr should have smartly done this
Loosing him to france and England was okay not Algeria haba

We had everything at our disposal
I have always said this the best time to cap this guys is prior they hit the limelight
You entice them with call ups and first team football. You give them exception base on their prospects and how well the team needs an AM, CM etc for an example like we did with Iwobi and Maduka

Like?!?! This thing has hurt my feelings. More than Ebere Eze sef.
Big big loss for us.

cromz:
Make we no dey stress on all these average English boys jare. What can oliseh play that iwobi,Ejiaria or Alhassan cannot play?

Olise is a baller! Forget all this talk.

Meanwhile Pinnick has been deceiving us with all these fake sponsorship deals.
In what sane world would a coach accept this nonsense?
Maigari > Pinnick ×100000000.

Those who want to play for Nigeria will play for Nigeria. It will be impossible to stop them.

IF any player eligible for Nigeria is called up once and they say they need time to decide, that's fine. We leave it there. When they have finished thinking about it THEY should inform the NFF and they will be invited to join camp and fight for a shirt.

IF they decide not to join that's also fine, we move on swiftly.

Some will join us and some will not. What we must however do is give them the chance by inviting them ONCE.

The reason i say we need to invite them and make it public is to avoid lies coming out further down the road.

e.g Gabby Agbonlahor. Anyone who knows him knows he is 100% Brummie and I am sure the thought of playing for Nigeria over England would have made him laugh deep down. There was no chance of that happening in 1 million years! Now he has retired with a grand total of 3 England Caps to his name he always says he picked England because NFF didnt reach out to him. Lies!

e.g Fikayo Tomori. Eligible for Canada, England and Nigeria. He has already come out to say he wasn't contacted by the NFF. This is not true. He is still one England 1 cap since his debut in 2019 against Kosovo. We are watching....

We are the Super Eagles of Nigeria!! The country may be crap but the Super Eagles is without doubt the biggest brand in International Football on the African Continent. If you doubt me ask furcknig Nike!!

I got you right my man.

Olise is a crumb right?so nothing fuss about his decision to play for Algeria.

My question is why Algeria?and if that decision was football reasoning then bye bye to him.

I will never cry over a player that choose Algeria over Nigeria.

Joebie:
you are right. Time is about to run out. He is almost 24

Wow! He is still only 24? He can still rejuvenate his career. The guy reminded me of a young Iniesta in that u 17 tournament

Dreadlocks + Blackman + Micheal akpovie olise (full blooded Nigerian name) its weird with those combinations and playing for Algeria

Playing alongside mahrez is the only tempting thing in this names you mentioned

ChrisKels:


Honestly, whenever a good player pops up like this, first thing I check is his origin, once he is Igbo or Yoruba, I dun comot mind, because I no say he is gone. But if na Edo, I dey always get hope

Gabriel Agbonlahor no be Edo ni my man.

edi287:

Olise is a baller! Forget all this talk.

Yes he is a baller but why not England or France?

Yes, he was among the youngest in that GE class.

Well, his mom is Algerian. Although the report says it's the agent leading him in that direction, I still doubt that. He still feels strongly connected to the country of his Mom. If na Nigeria we dey, it's easier to identify with the father's side. Let's wait to hear something from him. Let's not forget, this guy walked out of the press when he was asked after he was name to our standby list.

Eze is still there waiting for England
Wahala for who no get multiple options to choose from like Olise.

Oga sir. Why does it matter? The issue is that you are not getting the player.
To me it makes no difference. He could feel more strongly towards Algeria. These things are subjective.

Lol tears dun full everywhere

Told you all no reasonable play would wanna associate with this dirty system, but you all kept hold of your empty dreams. Olise has made the right choice, he is still young and too good to mess up his blossoming career with Nigeria, it hurts to say this but that is just the truth. The earlier you all understand that nothing is attractive about Nigeria, the better for you all. We can only get the players deemed surplus to requirements, the players that have no other options than to pitch their tents with us. No quality player confident in his abilities would trade illustrious systems for ours. Would be really fun to face him and his Algerian side in the AFCON.

All I see in your write up is 95 percent politics instead of football talk

I am sure you are educated ,but where is this mentality comming from ?

No Dey fall my hand bro ,I believe you know better .

haha.. And we just need one to deputise Iwobi. If e too hard us, let's declare a state of emergency.

There seem to be lots of low self esteem individuals on here because I can't seem to fathom the worry on this olise case. In a country that recently produced world class talents like ndidi, osimehn, chukwueze and iheanacho. And have the likes of ejuke, moffi, awoniyi and Sadiq on the sideline - our goal is to focus on grassroots level and keep applying pressure. We have lots of osimehn waiting to explode. Nigeria should never ever beg anyone to play for us because we're a football country and aggregating our population, talents are bountiful. Personally, I will pick Chidera ejuke over Olise but that's just my opinion

Same reasons many here gave why he would never consider Algeria.

Aina as it stands yes, Iwobi no.

We are not getting the crumbs.

Aina wanted to play for us, Aina has the potentials, if he conscientiously develops his game, we won't be saying this.
I want you to know that Ndidi has so much improved his game, same with Iheanacho. The lheanacho of Leicester city has improved so much from the Iheanacho of Manchester city.

Aina can toll the same path.
