Yeah at the moment he cant. This is why I havent been dropping steady updates on him so folks wont get the wrong idea.

Loads of players play weekly but I cant be dropping all so I select what I can most especially to focus on who can bring extra to the team. But I still drop the odd names when I see fit.
Clearly understood..
Thanks

The only advantage which was a gift to NIGERIA was the ERITREA ADVANTAGE. Take this to football experts outside African shores for analysis. However it was still not directed at Nigeria because had we ended 3:0 it would have been of no effect.
Moreso rule had been known but the more than 50% home matches matter: UNPRECEDENTED!
You guys can take that up with CAF or FIFA 💁‍♀️. We are gone grin. Snatched it and ran like APC grin grin grin

Congratulations. Happy for you guys, and I hope we'd join you soon.

Lol. What 2-1 loss? Again, you are WRONG. Aniagboso is yet to lose a game with Chernomorets Odesa in the Ukrainian 2nd tier IN 25/26 SEASON.
He has conceeded 3.
2 in a 3-2 win and one in his last game that ended 1-1 on October 13, 2 days ago.

So I have definitely been following. If you have been following, u wont drop info from the 24/25 season and wrongly infer that he is in the topflight.

Correct yourself Cocony and stay correctly updated.
You are right on the 3 conceded. I have updated but I still maintain he will be a threat to the first choice. 9 clean sheets in 11 is no flash in the pan. He started in the Ukrainian Premier League and got relegated with them. He played a role in 4matches first as already previously quoted on 28th September 2024 in the Ukrainian Premier League against LNZ Cherkazy, then subsequently against same team, Obolon and Verses Rivne.

Same way a Jerome Akor Adams might not have been valued when Montpellier were drowning but he was an outstanding performer.
I make a case for Aniagboso to be recalled. He played same tournament with Benjamin Frederick who has respectedly taken his chance to become a starter.

No analysis needed. Facts stated. Our focus is on the first game of the playoffs which if by dint of hard work and better luck we scale through we hope for same to recur in the 2nd game. You see the South African matter we all shall reconvene after the 2nd round of matches at AFCON for reassessment.

You have to also correct the 2-1 loss. Chernomorets also have not lost a game. 11 games played. All featuring Aniagboso and they have either won or drawn. Second in the 2nd tier.

Jerome Akor as a striker should have gotten his chance earlier while at Montpellier but it still worked out. Upgraded to La Liga, Super Eagles call came and he bagged. But I maintain he should have gotten his call earlier. I believe the plethora of attacking options then, made it not happen.

As for Aniagboso... I will be the first to absolutely champion his call to the team if he goes this entire season, leading Chernmorets Odesa to promotion to Ukrainian Top Flight. But right now, I will be cautious and keep monitoring, and watching the lad improve.

And recalled? You make it sound like he has been called before. Chill, his time will come.

The game I quoted was a Ukrainian Cup match which his team lost 2-1 and he was not included on the match roster(Hence I said you were not accurately following). In the league yes,they have not lost.

I did not make it sound hence I said earlier you have not truly been following.
After the 2023 U20 AFCON, he and Daniel Bameyi were called up to the senior Nigeria squad for their 2023 Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON) qualifying matches against Guinea-Bissau on March 24 and March 27, 2023 but Chijioke remained an unused substitute

We dey even overlook that intelligent 🧠 pass from Terem Moffi to Moses Simon that brought about the assist for the fourth goal.

If na another person dey there, them for no drop that pass. Too intelligent. A pocket pass.
Re: "The Super Eagles Thread: The Road To AFCON 2027, 2028 And 2030 World Cup by TheSuperNerd(m): 11:15am On Oct 15, 2025
I never stated a cup game as he was not included. I clearly mentioned league games only coz I know they have lost no games in the league especially with the lad featuring in all.

And even the Cup match you quote was not a 2-1 loss. They actually WON 2-1. It was in the next round they fell 5-3 on penalties after a 1-1 draw. So again, you got it mixed up with Chernomorets' Cup records in 25/26 season.

Many of their fans said a private jet should be dispatched to come pick him back to Turkey.
I stand to be corrected but Galatasaray is the only club in the world that live streams the flight of their new signees to Turkey, and the video will amass millions of views.

The Osimhen flight from Germany to Turkey when he was signed was tracked and live streamed on youtube, and it amassed over 2 million views. That fanbase is craazy.

Not gonna lie, like many others I wasn't pleased Osimhen went to Turkey, cnd not a top 5 league but I appreciate Gala for knowing his worth, and showing him massive love.

Their love for Osimhen transcends the club, and follows him to the National team. Before the match yesterday, Gala fans were all over TikTok wishing Osimhen and the Super Eagles well.

That Gala fan base na ride and die, and I like it.

Yes a 1-1 draw and an eventual loss which I stated as a loss. If you get to the finals of a tourney or even the quarterfinals of a tourney and lose on penalties will it still count as a draw?
Let's leave the semantics, you were right in his 11match streak but you boldly stated he did not play in the premier league of Ukraine I beg to be corrected.
Secondly you were not aware of his previous call up making my use of the term recall seem incorrect whereas it was accurate.
Re: "The Super Eagles Thread: The Road To AFCON 2027, 2028 And 2030 World Cup by TheSuperNerd(m): 11:20am On Oct 15, 2025
Well, he never featured. And I dont recall him making the matchday squad for a competitive fixture. His time will come but currently he should just keep it going with Chernomrets. He wasted a whole seasom in Europe without getting a single game at Polissa Zhytomyr (except a game with their second team in a much lower tier).

Aniagboso is finding his feet now, so let time do its work.

I've always fancied Moffi as a forward.

Remember his intelligent move last AFCON that got the SA defender sent off?

Also a potential partner for Victor in attack.

You are not making sense. What you quoted clearly stated that Aniagboso is not in the top flight but in the 2nd tier.

You said he is in the top flight Which is wrong info. Stop trying to alter your words in order to feel good. Just accept you were wrong and move on. Simple.
