You are just a bigoted shameless tribalist.

You are incorrigible.

He who knows not and knows that he knows not, is wise ,but he who know not and thinks that he knows is big BUFFOON.

George Abbey was born and brought up in Port Harcourt, his mother is from Wales. He played football on the old town ship Fields of PH. He is bonafide PH boy.

He played for Sharks before leaving Nigeria to England and playing for Macclesfield.

Do you have shame at all
I know of Ruben Agboola, and those who have watched the Eagles far longer say even in the formative years of Nigerian football we had foreign born players. We had Odemwingie who played very well for us. Carl Ikeme would have been a great GK but for the unfortunate incident of his health challenges. The present players are doing great. We are receiving huge chunks of foreign financial remittances but when it comes to football, we should close our eyes to foreign born players who want to play for us. Such ideas are just too ridiculous, too inane and it's best one does not speak about it.

Do you know how many player's deliver pin point crosses and shots with their so called weaker foot.

That's not a good excuse

How many, mate?

The fact that some of the best players are one-footed, tells you it is an added advantage, not a necessity.

Chukwueze is the most one-footed player in that squad.

Do you know Osimhen and or Dennis personally ❓ Because unless you do ,it's impossible for you to make that kind of deduction.

I don't know any of these players but I do know how football clubs in Europe operate. And I can tell you the biggest problem Dennis has, he is not media savvy and lacks understanding on how to manipulate the media.

Both Osimhen and Dennis have done the exact same thing. Just presented I very differently.

Regarding the bold, Osimhen is a beneficiary of undue favouritism and got into the SE without really doing anything in his club at the TIME. Osimhen used national team selection youth and senior to progress his career.



There's nothing undue..

About being the highest goalscorer in the history of the U17 World Cup..

To whom much is given..

Much is expected..

Or you think that's an easy achievement?

And even with his injuries..

Osimehn was adamant about coming to the AFCON..

He UNILATERALLY declared himself fit..

Against his clubs wishes..

Until COVID struck..

I fail to see how that equates with the Dennis scenario..

abeg calm down... Wait till list is out before starting your 'local coach' campaign.

I am not talking speculative and starting a supposed campaign.

You can't campaign for something that is already Iin existent is proven and established and is part of our history. We also know what our local coaches have done in the past.

Several NFF coaches have been indicted but still welcomed back. That in itself should tell you something.

So have our coaches changed just like our politicians and become , righteous, honourable, self- less, and of unquestionably integrity ❓

If you think they have then, let's assume they see something that experienced coaches across Europe , including Arsene Wenger could not see.

But if you know as we say , how we do, then we are back to business as usual.

Your last paragraph is a lie..
Osimhen only got one call up while he was still struggling with Wolfsburg and that was for the game against South Africa in Uyo.. That call up had little or no impact on his career progression because it wasn't until August of 2018 that he moved to Belgium..His next call up came after his impressive season in Belgium kicked off..
There are plenty of players who have used the national team to boost their careers, but Osimhen isn't one of them..

Its because it involved the keeper. They have more protection than players. Feel so sad for Ghana. What a disastrous AFCON. Zulu jazz working heavily on them.

Don't mind him. There's nothing bad if he uses the national team to advance his career. He's a Nigerian and he's entitled to use the resources or platform of the country to advance his career. After all as our players careers advance, so does their playing improve our NT it's a mutually beneficial relationship.

If this trend continues football would be so sanitized and it would become a no contact sports. Any small thing, prrrrrr referee don blow.

I watched a video where Ola Aina spoke about his infringement that led to the penalty awarded against us. He said he understands that it's an infringement but he does not understand how that should be a penalty because the ball was far from both of them.

Come to think of it, truly the ball was far far from both of them. That should have been a free kick in the box not a penalty

. In as much as you are right to some degree, on the other hand, I feel the coaches are closer to the players. Senegal with all the stars couldn't give us good football. Provided Eguavoen is getting results, no need for this your statement. If so called almighty onyeka fits in , he will definitely play.

No past history says no.

Remember world cup 2014.

Uchebo, Oshinowo, R. Gabriel ( had not played 200 minutes of football) , A. Egwuekwe, Kunle O., Ejike Uzoenyi, where all selected above proven and by tested players. Where are these player's today or did they ever progress.

Meanwhile Obagoal, Sone Aluko, Shittu, Ignored and left behind.

Frank Onyeka proven and tested in the best league in the world has already been ignored put to one side over somebody preference project player from the lowly Segundo division.

Thank you
You spoke just like a Father..
But please what's NUGA?
Nigeria university games(NUGA).During this games best athletes were picked for world university games...I remember my two senior bro were picked for world university games in United States,four friends were picked for the same games hosted by Japan,also six for Italy games in 1997.

Instead of disturbing yourself with under age teams,you can make it through NUGA games and make your academic priority.....cos the ex players with certificates are doing well after retirement even than some ex internationals.

Fifa never liked Algeria, imagine going on a 30+ unbeaten run coupled with winning the Afcon and yet still not top in Africa

Cause winning a bunch of friendlies against minnows is meaningless. Continental comps far outweigh friendlies so this drop makes sense.
