Ghana🇬🇭 through, Nigeria🇳🇬 out. For the third straight time the Golden Eaglets won’t be at the FIFA U-17 World Cup.

From being 5-time world champions and most successful team to missing three editions in a row. Something is seriously broken.
Shame

Well, now we have 2027, 2028 and 2029 u17 Afcon and WC editions to properly prep for.

2026 Wafu B for 2027 Afcon and 2027 WC

2027 Wafu B for 2028 Afcon and 2028 WC

2028 Wafu B for 2029 Afcon and 2029 WC

If we begin earlier than the usual, we can raise the U17 team that will feature in 2026 Wafu B and even the 2027 Wafu B. We can plan ahead... have them play each other even....have them gel together.

Once the 2026 WafuB set secure Afcon ticket for 2027, we also keep preparing the next Set for the Wafu B taking place same 2027 for the next Afcon.

This strategy is not hard. Just need to do it early and right.
My guy, I fear we are already going the way of Ghana in youth football.

Ghana was in 4 consecutive finals between 91 and 97- winning twice but since then nothing.

Nigeria is missing the world cup for the 3rd consecutive time and the last time we were even there, we didn't make it past the group stage even losing to Australia. Same Australia we beat 4-0 in 93 and 5-1 in 2001.

The failures of our youth teams is what is affecting the senior team today from u17 to u 23 it has been failure galore in recent years .

Years back we use to do open screening to sort players for the under 17, i remember during the tenure of maigari that was how it was done, open screening come fight for shirt if you are eligible and we won the world cup back to back using that method but people who think they know all critisize that method, they say our best player are in academy now see where our academy players has led us to missing the under 17 world cup three time straight.

Maybe we are now using real young u17 boys, compared to the usual tactics of age cheats which maybe aid us, I guess 🤷.

Nduka Ugbade's boys were the youngest we've seen in a while. Despite assembling a good crop of young talents and playing good football, he was sacked because we didn't qualify. (Mind you the team was one game from world cup qualification)

Since his exit we've now missed 2 world cups in a row one of which we didn't even qualify for the AFCON.

CAF is an unserious organisation. How can 10 teams from a 16 format competion qualify for world cup the rubbish zonal competion.

This format is rubbish because rivalry between countries in the same zone may prevent the best from qualifying. In matches between rivals it's not all the time that the best team wins. Sometimes it's about grit and not quality.

Open screening is better. The best talents are in secondary school or streets. How many young people have access to Academy?

NFF won't agree because open camping isn't cheap

Believe me, the first set in 1985 were young. They were majorly sourced from YSFON and they won.

Again, since the introduction of MRI, we have won twice and came 2nd once.

There will always be problems when we have to choose just 2 between us, Ghana and Ivory Coast.

TheGoodJoe and I talked about the Open screening method for years. Especially TheGoodJoe citing Aminu Maigari's NFF. Manu and Amuneke used it between 2012 and 2015 to bring in back to back world titles. We need to return to what works while incorporating scouting the best U16 lads across multiple academies in the country.

i was surprised seeing 10 goals as the highest we had since i can recall kanu playing for arsenal, inter and ajax. Was he a striker or support striker cos him stats always dey confuse person.
doesn’t matter if he is supporting or main, 5 goals in 60 games is very poor for a forward

It would be unfair to Osimhen's legacy if he doesn't win a major title with Nigeria. Years from now, I dont want that discussion to dent his monstrosity.
This monster is gonna own nearly every major record that is Nigerian by the time he is set to retire.

Osimhen and The Super Eagles must push for Glory at Morocco 2025 Afcon.

Chelle must push way beyond the Quarters he attained with Mali last time out. We have to get our hands on that trophy again. It's been a whole dozen years. 12 yrs!

A most silly take. MRI testing began in 2011. Nigeria's 2013 and 2015 WC winning classes were genuinely U17. We have been over this again and again. Get informed lest you spill garbage here.
