Fact remain,Nigeria have Iwobi,Ndidi,Aribo,Onyedika and Alhassan doing it in division one and Nwakili doing it in division two would make it difficult for Peseiro to invite him,reason I said Nwakili need a good platform to showcase but some said NO.Honestly so far,Nwakili this season is better than last season,if he keeps the momentum on I see him in La Liga or any top league next season but if he misses out,then he should forget it,hope Onyedika can seize the opportunity against Algeria.

I agree, undiluted fact. The lad is on an upward spiral, let's give him time maybe this full season, and then he should be eased into the national team set-up and subsequently the starting 11.

Early morning vawulence

We used to have an NFF U13 and U15 program ACTIVELY Functioning and playing games couple of years ago but not hearing about that now. It was functional under Maigari I believe and still functional for bit under Pinnick as we had Lateef Omidiji then play alongside Olatomi Olaniyan in the Nigerian U15 team to a few tourneys in Morocco or so.

Such programs yielded the likes of Awoniyi, Iheanacho and few more.

We also have had the LMC Youth promises U15 tourneys across the country. But it's not consistent.

We have had a few good grassroots programs but our problem is the CONSISTENCY AND SUSTAINABILITY OF these programs. Today, they are active... the next year it is like nothing is happening.


Right now, it is the Academies network at the grassroots level we have in Nigeria that is giving us glimmers of hope. The likes of FC Ebedei, Beyond Limits FA (Remo stars), Simoiben, etc, etc.


The last U17 Wafu B tournament saw our U17 side play the best and most breathtaking football of all sides even overcoming a more physically imposing and equally technical Burkina Faso side. The Ivorians in the Semis too were really tactically drilled but our lads overcame.

Our U17 system at the national level is far from perfect but it has continued to yield genuine talents for us under the right consortium of coaches who select the best lads across the various finest grassroots academies in the country to drill them into one solid team schooled in the tactics and sciences of the game to the best of what our facilities can offer.

Lads like Emmanuel Michael, Ebube Okere, Ozor Okeke, Basil Mbata, Abubakar Abdullahi, Light Eke, Precious Williams, Jibril Azeez, Raphael Oyebanjo, Miracle Ogwor, Yusuf Lawali, Jeremiah Olaleke, Richard Odoh are lads to keep eyes on currently ahead of the Next U17 Afcon coming up early next year.

Of these lots, the likes of goalkeeper Richard Odoh, defenders Emmanuel Michael, Jeremiah Olaleke and Yahaya Lawali as well as striker Abubakar Abdullahi Idris, who scored a brace in the Final against Burkina Faso all made the WAFU B Team Of the Tournament.

So we are raising our own local boys but it is still in an imperfect system. Hopefully things get better. HOPEFULLY.

Barryseal:

I agree 6yrs is a long time but trust the English to take care of him. He's also in a top5 academy in the world, his chances of failure is not so high.
Instead of hoping that he falls off the English radar so we get him, why can't the NFF develop a program on its own to develop our local boys here rotting away in the suburbs?

Outstanding quality remains quality it doesn't hide .

Back to my long standing proposition, "Better a Lion in a lower league and club than an anonymous mouse in a top club and league "

The blatant delusional double standard that surrounds Nwakali beggars belief. It is also hypocritical.

Dude has been swimming deep in mediocrity for over 6 years and he has a few games for a low level club in a low level not so competitive league Segundo. And some are giving him accolades like he is the new Pogba.

The Austrian and Belgium league are better but they are not in the top 5 in Europe.

There are several Nigerian origin players in Championship which is just as if not more competitive than some of those league. But not one word about them.

Since we decided to enthrone mediocrity why have we not heard anything about such players but we keep talking about a player who all he has is U17 youth cup glories. It's bewildering the level of emotive favouritism.

And many here were vociferous lambasting me because I talked about Oviemuno, Onyedinma, Onomah, and Chuks years ago.

But nobody talks about Championship players like Afolarin Alese, G. Osho,T.Iroegbunam, Rasheed Anjorin, Akpere-oghene Ekpiteta, Luke Amos, Bashiru, etc ,etc. l really do not think any of these players are SE quality.

But we have lowered the bar so low ,why shouldn't they all be part of the discussion if we can be talking about player who still hasn't done anything in 7 years.

People even talk about players in back water league of Europe with a 20 rating.

Cause essentially Nwakali may not be better than any of them , that's the double standard and hypocrisy.

Cameroon do not do well in the world cup. The only tome they played well was in 1990. Ever since then, they have been poor. Ad usual they will not cross the group stage of this world cup. They can only do well in Africa.
They are local champions

The official website of the French Ligue 1 has unveiled a list of the top ten youngest players to feature in this season's top flight, with a player of Nigerian descent making the cut.

Lesley Ugochukwu, nephew of retired Nigeria international Onyekachi Apam, ranks seventh on the list.

The France youth international was aged 18 years and 148 days when he made his season debut off the bench against Ajaccio on August 21, 2022.

The record holder for the season is PSG teenage sensation Warren Zaïre-Emery who was aged 16 years and 151 days when he made his senior debut on the opening day of the season against Clermont.

Completing the top five are Lille's Leny Yoro (16 years and 286 days), Rennes Désiré Doué (17 years and 65 days), ESTAC Troyes' Wilson Odobert and ESTAC Troyes' Kyliane Dong (17 years and 314 days).

Ugochukwu is the fifth youngest player to start a game in the Ligue 1 this season, aged 18 years and 176 days in the last game before the international break at Marseille.

The French-Nigerian holding midfielder was named in the latest France U19 squad and was on the bench in a 2-0 loss to Portugal on Thursday.

So also is every Nigerian player in Europe who has played half a dozen games for Thier club side.

So why should his case be given preference and prominence when he has done nothing for 7 years essentially.

What about the hundreds of players doing better and or comparable, not a word said for instance Lesley Chimuanya Ugochukwu.

Chriskels and thesupernerd have spoken about Lesley Ugochukwu here..He was mentioned a few days ago..
Where do you even get all these lamba from??

The way you're lamentating, you sound like everybody here is calling for Nwakali to be invited and given automatic starting shirt...

So Cameroon cannot win Uzbekistan

African teams should better do well at these World Cup ooo

Apparently, you don't follow this thread enough. You only reply to your mentions and then, move on to search your favorite keywords like Ghan--and usually do because.....

Someone like Chris, Nerd, and some others has been mentioning his name and how he's heir to Camavinga. If care is not taken and if we search deeply, we might find your comments opposing their views then.

Barryseal:


He's Nigerian but Nigeria is not entitled to his talent. He is being developed by another nation, they must always have that right of first refusal.
It's like a sperm donor claiming ownership of a kid he birthed instead of the foster parents who did the actual parenting and raised the child.
The English reserves the right to first refusal. Go to our ghettos, you will see madly talented kids better than this guy who have no access to proper facilities, coaching and academy. The job of the NFA is to create an eco system to birth these talents.

You are very correct.

At this point, I might have to do what some monikers here like Odunayaw and mostob are doing by "jumping and passing" on his post, cus e don too much ..
Gaffe upon gaffe since the past few days...

I am not comfortable with Ndidi (and other SE players) not wanting to grant interviews. Infact, that would prevent false rumors (like the one yesterday).

It is still a specific mystery.

The fact that he was named to the squad initially and even sent an invite only for the invite correspondence to be canceled by the arrival of another correspondence informing the club of Yusuf's cancelled invite speaks volumes of the fishy nonsense going on at the NFF with the technical crew led by Peseiro.

The theory by some is perhaps they are protecting some faces in the team. Midfielders and players with nothing more to offer and certainly not better quality-wise and tactical-wise compared to the Alhassans and Nwakalis.

Danielnino00:


Have you found any gist anywhere as to why Alhassan was dropped from the team? The fact that he isn't even being talked about as a replacement for Ndidi who pulled out tells me that there's more to it...

As for the bredas (I no wan mention their names so as not to attract an army of banku eaters here), Dem go still collect..E sure me...

charlesemeka85:


“Who haaaaaaas the final saaaay”

nwakali. To be honest the lad is getting better game by game, and that's a plus for the national team

And, How could I forget?

Another moniker who has also been called an alt of TheSupernerd is EMMY450.

He was immediately inducted into the "TheSuperNerd 100 Alts Club."

Ironic because the moniker actually asslicks the very one who accused him of such.

Haven't read any more accusations towards that moniker because the fat beggar fool now sees that is actually one of his many gullible disciples. Ehyeeaaa. Missed target just like all the others listed below.

How more stupid can Stupidity be?

SMH.

Damagnificentusb, perhaps you didn't understand what that fat fool asked you.

Well, me, I say welcome to TheSupernerd's "100 Alt-Accts club."

Other members in this club:

-JayromWrites
-Meliforme

Who again am I forgetting?

Just get used to it because these names I have called are monikers that have at one point or the other been called "Alt accounts of TheSupernerd".

Revel in this company, my good man because fact is some fat dumb idiot AKA 2K beggarman keeps testing his Okokomaiko sherlock Holmes IQ which have proven to be Zero so far.

I understand people get so Obsessed about me. I get that a lot really. Hate is a powerful disease that is hard to cure. Lol

So Damagnificentusb... enjoy this new tag. Just smile and ignore.

Bukayo Saka: How we were ever close to getting this lad is quite something to be honest.

Such a talent was always headed to England when he saw his profile rise even further. He is one of the few Anglo-Nigerians who will definitely have a fine long England football career. Possibly even longer than Dele Alli had.

We have had a few good grassroots programs but our problem is the CONSISTENCY AND SUSTAINABILITY OF these programs. Today, they are active... the next year it is like nothing is happening.


Right now, it is the Academies network at the grassroots level we have in Nigeria that is giving us glimmers of hope. The likes of FC Ebedei, Beyond Limits FA (Remo stars), Simoiben, etc, etc.


The last U17 Wafu B tournament saw our U17 side play the best and most breathtaking football of all sides even overcoming a more physically imposing and equally technical Burkina Faso side. The Ivorians in the Semis too were really tactically drilled but our lads overcame.

Our U17 system at the national level is far from perfect but it has continued to yield genuine talents for us under the right consortium of coaches who select the best lads across the various finest grassroots academies in the country to drill them into one solid team schooled in the tactics and sciences of the game to the best of what our facilities can offer.

Lads like Emmanuel Michael, Ebube Okere, Ozor Okeke, Basil Mbata, Abubakar Abdullahi, Light Eke, Precious Williams, Jibril Azeez, Raphael Oyebanjo, Miracle Ogwor, Yusuf Lawali, Jeremiah Olaleke, Richard Odoh are lads to keep eyes on currently ahead of the Next U17 Afcon coming up early next year.

Of these lots, the likes of goalkeeper Richard Odoh, defenders Emmanuel Michael, Jeremiah Olaleke and Yahaya Lawali as well as striker Abubakar Abdullahi Idris, who scored a brace in the Final against Burkina Faso all made the WAFU B Team Of the Tournament.

The truth is that we are not serious. Having a grassroot competition at U13 level is one thing, developing those talents in an elite environment with world class coaching and facilities is totally a different thing entirely.
Currently, ONLY Remo stars have anything close to being fit to be called an academy. And Remo is still building, they aren't fully running at maximum capacity.
In a country of 200 million, we need atleast 100 of these kind of facilities and academy spread across various states. England, a country of 67million have over 50 elite academies.

Our football industry is largely under developed. If we develop a working football program with these elite academies and a proper league system from the Amateur div 1 to the Premier league to incubate these talents. Within a few years you will have tens of Nigerian players competing at the very top of Uefa competitions unlike what we currently parade.

Alhassan will flop in Super Eagles. I have watched him play. I don't see him fit the profile of a National team player. However, Nwakali will excel in JP system. He is the type of DM/CM he needs. Can pass, shoot and dribble. I would have loved to see Nwakali and Iwobi's midfield 2 against Algeria.
