Leave them o...

If Osimhen dey perform, them go hide, once season end of if he get one bad game them go comot again, na their modus operandi be that. Not surprised.
I don't even know why they are so fixated on the player. Tomorrow they will say he's proud, another day he has attitude issues, he's in a retirement league, or he's not world-class; that's why he can't get a club, all sorts of nonsense. If he even takes a pay cut as they suggest, they will be back tomorrow to say he's because he's not world class, that's why he accepted a pay cut, mumu people.

Or

He no dey score, Icardi go soon bench am
He's a striker, he shouldn't be giving only assists
He's scoring only penalties no open play goal
The league is too easy and not top 5 leagues that's why he's scoring that many amount of goals..

Confused people... Always changing narratives everyday and he go still kill that narrative, only for them to cook another one. 😂

So no Felix Agu and Chukwueze for the Russia game? Would have loved to have them against Putin's men. But it is okay, Olakunle Olusegun offers something as well, close to a Karim Adeyemi.

Uche and Onyedika have got to start and play together. I suspect Chelle will play Onyeka too in a 3 man midfield. We will see shaa.

I want to see Uche and Onyedika. You cant play Onyeka with Uche and Onyedika present. Honestly, Uche appears like one who is very disciplined

I wish Chukwueze didn't leave because I wanted to see him once more against a disciplined Russian side

You cant possibly be serious with this comment about Boniface. Boniface will come good with time.

Man! I know Akinsanmiro is of same style as Uche, but, I'll really like for him to be given a runout with the Eagles.

He's got what it takes to excel. He has the same trait I admired in Yaya Toure.

Chizzy Ezewanta of Chelsea U18 is a top prospect, NFF should keep an eye on him.

I hope the U20 coach will integrate foreign borns into his team for the U20 team.
Exactly what is wrong with you Nigerians ? Why would you always salivate over players groomed by other countries? What is wrong with your local talents and why cant you develop your football academies. You think England will allow you snap their top talent on the pretense of ancestry. Stop playing biko

I like this Chelle's new list as it provides us with the opportunity to see what Onyedika and Uche can do together in the midfield.

Onyedika as DM, Uche as CM, Bashir as AM.



Frank Onyeka should be rested.
Really don't know why Dessers wasn't called for this.

People bashing Victor Boniface and Tolu Arokodare don't know or have forgotten that it took Osimhen 11 matchdays and 5 matches before he scored his first goal for the Super Eagles... See am now, second highest goal scorer in Nigerian football history.

Na time, no be rush rush. As far as they are scoring for their clubs week in, week out, them no dey craze... They are professionals.

Yeah, I've done my research on him, he seems very sharp and good at duels and dribbling.

Let's hope he comes good and even maybe score against the country he plies his trade in.

He's a left winger tho, there's Moses Simon, who wan come play right wing? No Chukwueze or Tella.

Na opponents I dey even tell to beware 😂

Chukwueze used Jamaicans for training in AM 10 role. I would love to see him there once more. Iwobi better learngrin

Gradually super eagles don get solid midfielders. Looking forward to Faustino joining soon mk we see wetin him fit offer the team 😊

Iwobi
Ndidi
Onyeka
Onyedika
Uche
Fisayo
Coaches will not have any excuses again for sticking to only two midfielders.

Would love to see the pair of Vince Osuji and Fredrick Benjamin at CB soon.

Same way as Osimhen is Nigerian dey make all of una look am less less. He's not the only player in the world that has attitude issues, he's not even in the top 50 list of players with attitude issues in history and many of them are great players and it didn't hinder them from playing for big clubs and winning great accolades. Na una be transfermarkt and Heads of Associations of Top 5 Leagues Chamber of Coaches na, to confidently know say na "attitude issues" dey hinder am.

The reply goes to you too yinkeys, you sabi write weird things with confidence. Omo...

Agenda must agend. Continue.
