This is one sure bet too o.


Which other Eastern Europe Coaches are available for selection? Shevchenko?

yinkeys:
No he didn’t.
All he uses are European based players.
The European based guys are easy to find on transfermarkt website
Just filter by country and you’d also see the ones with dual citizenship
I feel bad for home based players honestly
Just wasting their talent
Meanwhile Sunday MBA was the X factor in our last Afcon win when games became tight.
There are home based guys that are hungry to get the job done if given the opportunity
I’m honestly sad for home based guys that don’t get the opportunity
They actually want it more than some of these European based players in my opinion
With the right coach they will be integrated properly

ChrisKels:
Don't be emotional but rational. The senior national team is the apex of every team worldwide, so what's done here is assembly of already made players not discovering of talents.

Talents are discovered by youth team coaches while senior national team coaches invite them after they have proven themselves professionally. Have you ever heard Descamp, Southgate, Loew or any national team coach claiming that he discovered this or that? Abi your own definition of discovery is "giving a cap"? Inviting your available qaulified/eligible players is different from discovering players oga learn.

Can you name any player we didn't know of before he was invited by Rohr?

Descamp discovered Mbappe for France abi?

I don’t think coach with such mentality is good for our National team.

When it concerns countries that have sound youths/grassroots development policies that have been followed for decades.

Not like a country like ours where everything is disjointed. It takes extra effort from the coach to raise a formidable team than folding arms and waiting for Europe to do all the work.

Westerhof did a lot of grassroots work for us to enjoy the growth we had in the early 90s.

charlesemeka85:
when westahof was the coach of the team can you list how many top professionals we had in decent clubs in europe then?

TheGoodJoe:

We had loads. I can give you a brief understanding of Westerhof. He always believed the team can improve. Owoboukiri was a top Hitman and Efan Ekoku was also promising. That did not stop Westerhof from pushing Yekini. We had Friday Ekpo but it did not stop him from pushing for Okocha.

Westerhof was always interested and part of our football. From the U20 to the U17, to the local league. He even went to Calabar to watch an amateur tournament. Still searching for hidden gems.

oga list all not mention 3 or 4


no coach will have the luxury of over a thousand players in europe where 50% of those play best league and will start grooming men on the rudiments and basics of the game

that is the duty of youth team coaches

TheGoodJoe:


Do you think Rohr did not know that adding Adekunle's name to his payment deal was a pure racketeering deal?

Do you think Rohr did not know the massive contract clause to his contract was a shady deal?

He is part of it. It is not an opinion but fact.

Having thousands of players in Europe doesn't necessarily mean they are the best for the team. Europe is filled with average players who only leverage on the glamour of the league and playtime to get recognition. The best of our current crop of players began from Nigeria, that alone is testament to the fact that if we put in the work to scout and develop we'll find numerous talents who can play for the eagles.

TheGoodJoe:

Do you think we have the best players in every position in the national team today? Can our team compete with the likes if Spain, Italy and Belgiun for every position?

If your answer is no, then we need to keep searching and grooming to increase our pool of quality.

Mujtahida:
Abeg abeg they should forget about this home based players ooo. They are just too unintelligent modern global football. Even continentally they are huffing.

Well that one Na your school of thought
Not mine
Wetin d foreign based players dey play besides a few
I doubt they’d get 3rd in the nations cup this time around
I can mention a ton of players that were picked from the local league over the years before Rohr that have made this country proud
Do you know the number of stars that didn’t get to play for the eaglets or flying eagles
