The only name that gets me pissed whenever I see him around anything super eagles is that basket Akpeyi. Really really wonder why we keep inviting that dude. Like we're telling the world this is one of the best goalkeepers Nigeria can offer? It's an insult. Just like when we kept inviting Danny Shittu some years back.
where is shittu abeg. we like to see him in the eagles camp. but why is the percentage of biafran players reduced-hope no politics sha ?

Iwobi is overrated in the super eagles.
He is still in the team maybe because of okocha.
Musa in his active days in the SE was a grade A winger. You can't say that about iwobi in the midfield till date

John Noble . When I was 16, that guy did me dirty , then he’s was with Go Round F.C. I was in a local club side , when we played a local team from his community . He played as a striker #9, he didn’t keep despite been a Goalkeeper. I was a menace to him that day till he pushed me to the wall behind our post . I had a bruise on my head , which made the game to be abandoned . I cursed him as a Nigerian , not knowing that it doesn’t work , but hard work, connection and grace . Me that cursed , I’m still playing street football bar some stints in local teams . Anyway , I’ll keep on pushing . Tales of a grateful soul

Akpeyi is Amaju's kinsman. I think that is the only reason he has always been around the eagles.

With the inclusion of veterans like Musa and ighalo, Nigeria has a strong side that can lift the nations cup.

Apart from Egypt and Algeria, I don't see any other team troubling the super eagles.

Alex Iwobi plays as a forward player, not a midfielder in his club.

Even as a forward playing midfielder, Joe Aribo is better than him. The stat is there for you to see

In October, CAF increased the squad size from 23 to 28, to allow the participating teams have a larger squad list for the competition in case some players test positive for COVID-19.

The substitution is the normal three (3), but an added substitute incase the game gets to extra time.

Ok thanks I thought it was from 23 to 33 new rule

nice list by mr Austin n its seems he would lead us to AFCON which is better than that mourinho new man..
my question is, if spain n Enrique go get mind drop ramos dt av won it all n captained dt spain to numerous games n titles, why cnt we drop this musa from our list?
even the winning squad of spain n Germany were once dropped to allow younger players get involved no matter how hard it was but we keep including d inactive musa in our list bcox he is the captain or his dad owns the super eagles or wat?
I know he would still Mk the worldcup squad n still captain dt team again....seriously we ain't ready to move forward

What yu are asking 4 was done in d last olympic basketball earlier dis year. It ended in hardworked disappointment.
Naija teams would always need motivators (senior men) when things get tough (e.g grin should nff start owing bonuses).
Sighting senior men would make younger players suspend dia ego. (Based on my xperience in team sports)

Pros and pros and pros always...
this what most foreign coaches has done with our Eagles for many years without nothing to show
when late Stephen Keshi dumped this copy and paste show for some of our local based players,
Nigeria won the cup of Nations with a local based player scoring the final goal !!!

My question remains when can we have a team once again and not professional selected bunch
that want to please themselves with the various model of playing where they each ply their soccer trade
This is one big confusion that needs to be addressed..
