U should be looking for proof that they are competent cos the opposite is set in stone.

I can name at least 5 forwards better than Okwuchukwu. Chioma Olise is pretty solid and she even scored for our U20s. TBH I don't know much about Motunrayo
This was hilarious. Lol

Yes, Olise is a familiar name, she only needs to prove herself at this stage. I really do not have an opinion on the replacements, I just hope they are the best we've got at the local stage and politics didn't influence their selection. It's the least the NFF owes both the fans and players of the NWFL. Imagine how depressing it will be like to realise someone you are better than in the same league gets chosen ahead of you.

Let me make it clear to you… The Current Home Based players that have been called up to the squad for the past international window and this present one ain’t the best, there’re far better players which have seen and watched play this Pre-season and the season currently going on..

It’s a matter of I know you from Justin call up right now…

This again is prove we have incompetents running our football. Imagine an official of the NFF admitting suprise to Oshoala and Onyi's absences. Even as a fan, I know why they couldn't make it. As Deltamani reported yesterday, Oshoala is out injured and wouldn't be featuring for Barcelona too, while JOE has a championship game with FSU within the same time period. It's funny the NFF official tried to make it seem scandalous. Not sure why Christy pulled out but she has her reasons

With these withdrawals we obviously have a totally different squad now. They should still be able to get the job done but it may be a little difficult with many new entrants.

Deltamani and BascoVanVeli, are the home based players introduced the best we have? Are they one to look our for?
That Justin be spitting nonsense… Asisat Oshoala haven’t Played Barcelona past two games and the rumors have been blowing around that she isn’t fit cus of the hamstring injury, so they have been managing her till they ruled her out yesterday..!

Everyone knows too well that btw Onyi and Deborah one of them won’t be available for the game because of the College Cup, Anyway we should be glad that Deborah will be available to filled in the vacuum left by Ucheibe and Ayinde, which is my greatest joy right now..

Anyways I just hope NFF ain’t experimenting things with this below average Justin Maduga… We need a Coach!!

Ajibade might be the quickest super falcons player to hit 100 app. She doesn't pull out for games and she's always fit
Re: Nigeria Female National Teams' Thread by AkinDS: 4:00pm On Nov 26, 2023
But...
Most College (University) Fall semester exams week are from Nov 27 through Dec 8. and I will be shocked if Abiodun makes the trip to Nigeria for this game.

Calling these NFF people incompetent is being generous. They are imbeciles, pure and simple.

Yea I figured. From the article it seemed like she unable to leave Portugal at the moment. Again not sure why that is. We can assume same reason kept her out of the last international window.

Not injury, she scored with a great run into the Box..
Should I say VISA issue or something else but not injury at all..

Even though that was a risky run, that was a brilliant goal (or no goal).

I hope its not apathy on the part of the players, not wanting to play for the idiots running the ship now (Madugu or whatever his name is).

Oshoala, Echegini opt out of final AFCON qualifying fixture
 
Coach Justin Madugu has been compelled to pick replacements for forward Asisat Oshoala and midfielder Jennifer Echegini after the duo voluntarily opted out of the Super Falcons’ squad that is due to contest a 2024 Women Africa Cup of Nations final qualifying fixture against Cape Verde, with the first leg in Abuja in four days.
 
NFF’s Assistant Director (Technical), Abdulrafiu Yusuf, said the two players had been sent their flight tickets to travel to Nigeria a whole week before they announced on Saturday that they would be unable to join the squad.
 
“We were surprised that they had the flight tickets for so long and did not say anything, only for them to send different messages on Saturday that they would be unable to make the trip. However, Coach Madugu has moved swiftly to call up replacements for them,” disclosed Yusuf.
 
Midfield Halimatu Ayinde, who missed the 2024 Olympics qualifying fixture against Ethiopia last month, is still out injured, and forward Ifeoma Onumonu also requested to be left out, saying she is nursing an injury. Defender Michelle Alozie told the team administrator that she will be undergoing a surgery.
 
Madugu has called up Portugal-based Peace Efih to once again fill the space vacated by Ayinde, while Rivers Angels’ midfielder Motunrayo Ezekiel will take the place of Christy Ucheibe, who is unable to travel to Nigeria from her base in Portugal.
 
Nigeria U20 Girls' ace forward Chioma Olise will take the place of US-based Echegini while Chiamaka Chukwu of Rivers Angels has been called up to take Oshoala’s place.
 
The Super Falcons will host the first leg of the fixture against their counterparts from Cape Verde at the MKO Abiola National Stadium, Abuja on Thursday, 30th November, with the second leg scheduled for the Santiago-Estadio Nacional Blue Shark in Praia on Tuesday, 5th December.

Was wondering what happened to bringing in Anam IMO in place of Asisat Oshoala who was involved in 22goals Scoring 15goals and 7 assists in 25 league games this season for Pitea IF and also got nominated among the Forwards of the season…

Season finished last week in 🇸🇪 so she’s arguably very free and available.. With her performance this sessshe deserves a call up! Not bringing in their own Home Based players instead of deserving ones…

Anam Imo just couldn't clique for the Super falcons just like Sadiq Umar for super eagles.
Don't you think we overrate some of these lower European leagues sometimes? Let's look inwards more.

They were either trying to save cost or the timeline was just too short to make it happen.

If it’s about Clicking with the Squad I can take that for the now because of the opportunity she has previously gotten…

But rating the Swedish League that is currently ranked 6th in Europe just behind France, Germany, Spain, England, Italy is something I won’t take…

Apart from this Year, the Swedish League have been ranked between top (3-5) until this 2023 when they fell down to 6…

Do you even know that According to UEFA the English WSL is ranked 4th behind
1st France 🇫🇷
2nd Germany 🇩🇪
3rd Spain 🇪🇸

Lol, I mean the Swedish league slowly lost its previous steam since around 2010 but I wasn't aware of this ranking though.
My overall point is that I prefer bonding in a team and a team that clicks. Also some home based players may likely prove to be hungrier than some of these players we invite from Sweden, Russia, Turkey, etc.

The bolded is a no for me, they have been in the top3 for a long time not until 2017 when they fell down to 4th and that was the beginning… The major reason for their going down in the rankings is because of the Pay 💰… The pay in the NWSL, French League, WSL, Spanish and German League increased and the Players moved out to the other Leagues which affected them…

If they invest in the Pay again they will definitely rise again because they’re one of the most Organized League in the World… Facilities top notch!

To me Veteran Tochukwu Oluehi is better than at least 3 goalkeepers on this List just that she didn’t play much for Nigeria because of Nnadozie presence, at least her Club performance should have counted too as she had a good season with her Turkish Club hakkarigucu FC before moving to Saudi Arabia 🇸🇦
