Schemerkhiz: So happy for Roosa. Hope that this helps her get back to form. By the way, this is what Rinsola looks like. You can glean from her disposition she really wants to play for Nigeria. Is she likely to get an invitation? 1 Like

Schemerkhiz: Well, I'm of the opinion that she should be given a chance . She may come good. |
Re: Nigeria Female National Teams' Thread by lovewins: 2:28pm On Jan 21, 2022 |
Schemerkhiz: Lol. Haven't seen her play so don't know how good she is. I only know she got a call up to the England lionesses camp but doesn't appear she's been recalled since then. Lately she's been all pro Nigeria sha, so I'm guessing she wants to pivot. Lol |
Re: Nigeria Female National Teams' Thread by lovewins: 2:31pm On Jan 21, 2022 |
Schemerkhiz: I'm really rooting for Roosa. I've seen quite a number of her scrimmages and I'm of the opinion that she's a lot more technical than some of these other guys. Like you said, she needs to fight her way back into the team. It's increasingly getting crowdy so she has to prove herself 1 Like |

Excited for Roosa too, really like her and the strength she brings to the table. However, she REALLY needs to step up if she wants to be on the SF squad. She really did not make an impact at Granadilla Tenerife and is lucky a good La Liga Femenina club like Real Betis signed her. On Rinsola, congrats to her and would like to see how she performs in the Spanish La Liga Femenina. She had a tumultuous time in England, with her contract situation with Liverpool. Now that she has cut bait with Liverpool and has signed with Real Betis, she can settle down and show the world how much of a great player she really is. Rooting for her! lovewins: |
Re: Nigeria Female National Teams' Thread by AkinDS: 6:19pm On Jan 21, 2022 |
Now I know why you have been pushing back on Rinsola all this while...there is really no need for the 'hatorade'. Even though Rinsola has every right to chose who to play for, her heart is with the SF and Nigeria and I am optimistic she will play for the SF in the not too distant future - hopefully at the Nations Cup this summer or at the World Cup, God willing. Rinsola is Naija through and through! Schemerkhiz: |
Re: Nigeria Female National Teams' Thread by AkinDS: 6:39pm On Jan 21, 2022 |
Not sure why Schemerkhiz is upset today, but you are right about her being called to the England Lionesses camp, even though she has yet to be capped. I suspect her switch is being considered, even though it might have been delayed because of her club situation with Liverpool. Now that she has permanently moved to the Spanish League, she can now focus on her international career. If she becomes an SF, she will bring more options to the flank play, as she can operate on either the left or right flank. She will bring pace and guile. She has a similar gait to Uchenna Kanu. This will allow Kanu to also play as a central striker if necessary (a role she primarily plays at her club) and will help add to the options on the flanks - (Uchenna Kanu, Ify Onumonu, Esther Okoronkwo, Vivian Ikechukwu and possibly Rinsola Babajide gives us speedy alternatives for wingplay - considering that the likes of Ordega and Oshoala are becoming senior citizens and are more injury prone). For the record, not impressed with Gift Monday and Fatuga Dada is still under review. In order to build a strong, deep squad, you need ALL the credible options out there. Rinsola coming aboard would help in that regard. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Oz9O7w6LzZ8 lovewins: 1 Like |
Re: Nigeria Female National Teams' Thread by AkinDS: 6:44pm On Jan 21, 2022 |
Agree. Not sure what went wrong with her relationship with Waldrum but I noticed she really struggled in her debut with the SF during the summer series last year. In fairness, that heat was BRUTAL (I was sitting in the stands sweating profusely and finding it very difficult to breath because of the intense Houston heat!). For someone coming in from the cool climate of Finland, it would have been like hell. I really hope Randy can give her another chance - she is really a cool girl and I am really hopeful she has another shot at making the team. She is a big, burly striker that would give a lot of center-backs problems. She is also very technical, great in the air and her hold up play is good. She is also very good at running into the channels. Her minuses include her somewhat lack of pace, which can be overlooked by her finishing, which is top notch. lovewins: |
Re: Nigeria Female National Teams' Thread by AkinDS: 7:17pm On Jan 21, 2022 |
Sorry, but nothing is packed full. You keep peddling Maclean's Chinonyerem, but she really has very little body of work to assess. For all we know, the Polish Women's league is really not credible enough to be used as a performance and competence benchmark. If she was really that good, she would be in one of the more competitive Women's leagues. Also, we all saw Desire's performance during ABC and the Ghana game. It is safe to say that she is on the downward slope of her SF career (same with your favorite, Ngozi Okobi ). We really need fresh competitive talent upfront. We did well in bringing in some young, exciting players last summer and we need to continue on that trend, as there are many more out there. To this end, I am surprised that this young girl Rofiat Sule has not been considered or given a look in by Randy. She was on the radar under the previous coach as a local player, but now she seems to have settled down with her new club in Europe and is doing quite well for Pink Bari Calcio Femminile, in the Women's Serie A in Italy. From the few games I saw her play in the WAFU Cup in 2019, she was fast, skillful and very strong on the ball. She also could score goals. Schemerkhiz: |

Re: Nigeria Female National Teams' Thread by lovewins: 10:06pm On Jan 21, 2022 |
AkinDS: I stand corrected, but I think Roosa was in the US at the time. It appears she went there for her master's degree and played for her college team. Again not sure if the timeline coincides with the summer series, but she spent sometime in the US so it shouldn't exactly have been a new environment for her per se. That said, I agree with your submission, really rooting for her |

Re: Nigeria Female National Teams' Thread by AkinDS: 4:07am On Jan 22, 2022 |
Roosa Ariyo completed her studies at Monroe Community College, part of SUNY (State University of New York) in 2018. She then returned to Finland and played for clubside TiPS for 2 years before she was invited for the Summer series in 2021. She was in Finland at the time of her invite. She and Zogg flew on the same flight from Amsterdam to Houston for the Summer Series. Besides, New York is about 1600 miles North of Houston, so the weather in both places are completely different (like night and day). lovewins: |
