You're right. I also read a tweet from someone complaining about Aribo today on Twitter. He said he's not convinced about our number 10 Aribo and that is his major fear grin. The Twitter space could be damn comical most times. Many of them probably last watched the super eagles when okocha was no 10.

My point exactly , since you find insulting people to be a hobby and fun thing why then are you worked up ?

But , I guess you aren't that tough skinned, after all. Which means your insults is another way of fighting people you could not defeat in a simple debate. Seems like a character of a dimwit.

A Nigerian is a Nigerian especially in sports. Truth is that in a few years from now it is possible that we field a team of 90 percent foreign born players. Already the D'tigers team is 100% foreign born.

See ehn one would think because these guys are born outside our shores, you'd think they'd be less dedicated, they'd be half Nigerian in their mentality and our connections with them would be weak.

Na lie! They are so passionate, so dedicated and we love them just as we love all our sport men who make us proud. Ebuehi was initially not invited, he nearly wan die. Man was full of joy when he was invited yet this is Ebuehi who rarely plays when invited.

See them eating eba, egusi, keeping the connection to the motherland.

Imagine someone with your thinking becomes a coach! Yet you are abroad enjoying all the best that another man's hard work has created.

What is my point: these players are all Nigerians, foreign or local born.

The only consideration is quality

Our national team is one area we have managed to keep out the cancer of tribalism. Abeg this subtle brand of tribalism of local born players and foreign born players is abhorrent.


This is not a matter of passion , because you cant be more Nigeria than a Nigerian. We have a culture and a style and that must be upheld. Your white man almost ruined our football culture and passion. I was so frustrated with your white coach I nearly gave up on watching SE play. Thats what a foreigner will do to your legacies , though , not all.

If Rohr was in charge Onyekuru , Nwakali , Olayinka will never be invited but these are the people who are flying Nigeria's flag and will marry a Nigerian woman to continue our culture. There are issues tied into these than you could see.

I am not saying don't invite foreign born but why must it be the leftovers and not the best. Are we INFERIOR to England ? I am very confident England doesn't have more talents than us, they are just better organized.

And , you are wrong about foreign born dominating the Nigerian team , because we all our big guns are Naija born and these foreign borns are just spectators that will never displace the main players. Secondly , no top flying English player will ever agree to lace booth for Nigeria.

Iwobi is struggling to stamp his presence in a mid table club.

Aribo's plays in lowly rated Scottish

Ajayi Championship.

Maduka a disaster waiting to happen.

Ekong is benefiting more from Nigeria; very easily replaceable.


Aside Ebuehi and Aina both who could be easily replaced Nigeria has the full potential to groom a pool of talent that could rule the world....England can only dream of these. So , I am proud of the talent that exist in our system and I don't think we need any foreigners to help us play better, unless if you want to help some rejected English players of Nigerian descent.

In fact, they'd make you derail. I saw how they were being stupid yabbing Maduka and calling it cruise. That boy is playing a dangerous game with the most toxic, unrelenting, rabid mob in the world - Nigerians on Twitter.

Ekong did the best thing. Lock yourself away from their adulation or criticism. Their praises is nothing but a scorpion waiting for just one mistake or bad game to sting you.

Nwakali is a Nigerian and deserved preferential treatment just like the English give their home grown players preference. If you place Nwakali and Iwobi in England for selection , no matter how talented Nwakali is as long as he is not English he will never be considered.

In the U.S. if you are born in a place not a province of U.S you will never become President be you white or black. Its very annoying how we scramble for English leftovers and worship players the English considered inferior. If I have my way we will only take foreign players playing in the top 5 League in Europe. The English doesn't have better talent pool than us.

This disgraceful inferior mindset is why we hired a crappy coach and people were drinking his pee on this thread because he is White man and Africans are so senseless they thought whites were gods.

Now , we have a Nigerian coach who slavish negroes on this thread condemned before he resumed his work but look what has happened!!

Nwakali:he captained the the team to world glory and brought joy and happiness to our soul. Won the MVP and brought the cup home. Thats a hero , init ?

You need to tone it down with your disgust for foreign born players, For someone like you who lives abroad, you keep contradicting yourself, imagine tomorrow, your own child is denied an opportunity here in Nigeria for being born abroad, how would you feel?


I hate Amaju touring Europe, begging some mediocre players to come play for us, but the ones with quality & passion should always be allowed to represent us whenever there’s an opportunity.

Minus Akpoguma, none of the foreign born players in this present team toyed with our emotions, they all came when they were invited.

You need to cut these guys some slacks, none of them choose their birth place, otherwise, don’t cry foul when such treatments is melted out to your offspring in the nearest future.

I don't play by your rules or anybodys. If you have no self control and had no temperament to engage in public discussion and maintain etiquette, then you should not speak out.

What you are trying to do is tell people not to air their views because some persons can't control their behaviours. This is insane and rettarded at same time.

Again , Nwakali is the most gifted midfielder in the team. If you don't like it drown yourselves.....this is not kindergarten , oga

I don't give a minute fuvvk about how you feel. Do you see me lose my mind and start insulting people who insult my favourite players.

Bros, foreign born, local born ...are Nigerians not Nigerians? Do you mean to say a Nigerian born in Lagos is more Nigerian than a Nigerian born in Oslo? If that's what you mean then I'm sorry to say I'm disappointed in you.

An European lady once said to me in in our pure pidgin English "Na black man wey dey always claim victim to racism dey practice racism pass"

We need to start seeing ourselves as one, one people, one human, irrespective of races and colour

I can't speak for other people but on my own part I voted not just based on club achievements but also impact with the national team.

Taking both club form and national team performances into consideration holistically I think Osimhen more than merits being named player of the year.

Kudos to Onuachu he had an awesome year just think Victor was better.

*modified* For best striker I choose KC



I tend to look at goals in the league as my core unit of measurement.

Then it seems you are looking at last season and this season together.

My approach would be present continuous, that's more reflective of the HERE and NOW. Most clubs will loose and gain player's over the summer even a change of Manager in some clubs. What that means the dynamics have changed.

As a consequence , players who have limited capacity oto adapt and change may find some changes to their advantage or disadvantage. New players can mean a loss of your position as well. All the reasons why last season performance is not always reflective of the HERE and NOW.

For instance Demerai Grey has not been a prolific goals scorer. Has gone to Everton and scored more goals in his entire career at this stage of the season, gone just halfway.

So this this Season one could day Demerai is a baller in the HERE and NOW.
