Senegal's list: Mane in, Ligue 2 player in

Sadio Mane is going to the WC even if on crutches. Senegal need their main Talisman.

Meanwhile, Formose Mendy, A player from French Ligue 2 side, Amiens SC is heading to the FIFA World Cup with Senegal but in here, some folks will talk down HYPOCRITICALLY on division 2 players who can come in and add value to the Super Eagles.

Senegal has more than one Division 2 players by the way. THEY HAVE 5 DIVISION 2 PLAYERS heading to the mundial.

Apart from the well known, Ismaila Sarr of Watford and the above mentioned Formose, there are 3 others from the English Championship. A GK from QPR (Seny Dieng) and 2 Ndiayes from Reading and Sheffield utd.

They even have a player from Cyprus.


Question: You (Nigeria) better past Senegal??

I insist that National team selections should always focus first on the quality and tactical value a player brings before we consider where he plays. It's that simple.

Player's Tactical and Technical Value >>>>>>>> Player's playing location.

Cameroun, Ngadeu and Vawulence

November 9:

Cameroonian Defender, Michael Ngadeu-Ngadjui says,

"I am a hungry lion... we will reach the final of the FIFA World Cup... we are going there to die on the field."


November 10:

He was not called up to Cameroon's World Cup team.

Players like this one normally struggle with discipline and are very prone to errors.
Dude believes fuming all over will take his team to the finals.

I ponder how he will cope with his emotions after the drop.
I feel for Ngadeu.
May the Lord help him recover. Amen.

This player didn’t get picked over Maguire coady or Eric dier

Maybe this is the reason why English players don’t like to play abroad
End of national career
Tammy, Tomori, Eze etc
They also won’t make the 2024 Euro squad
Smart of Lookman to have switched allegiance to Nigeria
He’d always be called up for tournaments over home based players cheesy
Nigeria will win 2024 or 2025 nations cup
Saka is there because he’s exceptional & plays for Arsenal

Tomori, Tammy, Eze, Olise et al, deserves to get what they want out of life. I encourage them to keep improving until it becomes very difficult for the English FA to overlook.

Tammy would be 29 in 4 years bro
When Pinick was begging all of them they declined.
Kane would be in the 2026 World Cup at 33 y.o.

My Favorite European team: Ons Oranje cool

I am for Nigeria (Super Obviously), Brazil, Netherlands and Morocco. My favorite National teams in world football from the time of my childhood.

But Ladies and Gentlemen, Watch out for Denmark too. They will cause huge headaches at Qatar if they play true to their tactical nous.

Spain is another to keep keen eyes on.

From the squads I've seen so far France has the best tools to win the WC but defending champions hardly defend their titles.

Yes Pogba and Kante are big misses but they still have Benzema, Mbappe, Nkunku, Camavinga, Saliba, Upamenco, Rabiot solid world class players. They may not win the WC but the squad is still damn strong.

I have problem with their midfield. I don't think they can hold it against the bests in the world.

To be honest, if you were a coach, will you invite a hungry lion to follow you on a team bus to a match? Mbok, the coach wants to see his grandchildren grow up.

Maybe his family was against his selection as they heard 'die on the field'.
They don't wanna lose a breadwinner.

Andrew have you seen our squad list? It is now or never. By the way, I wonder what Otamendi is still doing there. I don't like that guy angry
Maybe the coach need a little touch of Agberoism so De Paul can concentrate on his bodyguard duty.

Ha Bros.... They have a good attack and defence but their Midfield is a little bit off. Toomuchmoney and Karma-finger may be found wanting when experience is needed.
Guen is good too but he is exactly not someone who can hold a Midfield effectively.
Germany won the world cup and there Midfield was decisive..
Pogba and Kante holding that Midfield was also part of why France dominated in 2018.
One of the reasons why super eagles do struggle is due to disjointed Midfield.
Midfield is very essential and that is where France are least strong.

Yeah you are right but apart from a handful of teams not many countries have great midfields like that.
