AndSunGorilla:after U20 world 3-5 players from the set are drafted into the senior national team and that is how we discovered most of our best players. But since the Advent of foreign born players, that transition process has stalled. |

zuchyblink: It has nothing to do with the advent of foreign born players... How many of our u-20 players in the past few years have really gone on to perform well at club level? Performance at national u-20 level is hardly a basis for invitation to the senior team.. 6 Likes |

elyte89: Nah. I don't remember anybody criticizing Shehu back when we didn't have competition for his position and he was performing regularly for his clubside. At the moment, however, things have changed and the RB position has become a lot more competitive. |

MetalJigsaw:Una like wahala too much,someone popped up from nowhere and you guys are given him attentions. If Osimhen is 34 then Awoniyi is 35,even Awoniyi senior brother is 30,so I can argue it when it comes to some players certain ages. I pointed it out here sometime ago that a neighborhood brother was in Japan 93 camp as secondary school boy at age 15 but later lost out to Celestine Babayaroโฆ It was here some Dey call Martins 50 year old man but I know he is not up to 40 cuz my younger brother who went with Martins to Italy to join Regiana through Churchill Oliseh is just 40 and a year older than Martins At 35 not easy to kick the ball again except by God grace. 2 Likes |

Kog45:So there are people who are still on this age thing after we saw these boys as kids who passed the MRI at U17 and saw how they transformed physically. Even look at JJ Okocha and Kanu, sebi people were saying they were over 40 years old when they were still playing for the Eagles about 20 years ago. Do they look like men in their 60s today? 7 Likes 1 Share |

zuchyblink: I clearly said "the past few years".. How many of our U-20 graduates of the past few years have done something tangible at club level to merit an invitation to the national team?

I understand it is a new dawn. Fifteen years ago, players like Ogwuche, Federicks, Nnadi, Eletu, Daga, Akinsanmiro, Jude Sunday, Daga, and Agbalaka would have made their senior debuts. The advantage is that there is no scouting head for our national team handlers. The disadvantage is that we can hardly get players like Osimhen, Kanu, and Okocha from those rejected by their country of birth's national teams in Europe. 1 Like |

Basic Education still just as important as Pro Football: Carlos Tevez's angle. A re-emphasis. Current Independiente manager and ex-EPL and Argentina legend, Carlos Tevez said this..... "3 of the boys in our squad today told me that they did not know how to add or subtract. That is poverty. We are now setting up a project with the club to provide them with a teacher, so that after training they can spend two hours studying. We can bring a boy food, we can help him with a lot of things, but studying... he needs to know how to protect himself, how to know to read what he is signing."
