Why is chukwueze not on the list but iwobi is? The midfield is not encouraging. I don't get it if nigeria have so much strikers like this then why didn't he invite them since? Why putting all the load on oshimen? I won't lie we need a sound coach. Why is it that when nigeria sacks there foreign coach's they do well in other countries? Sometimes you wish government can interfer in those thieves affairs. |

The midfield lacks creativity |

That WC playoff match against the DRC made me lose interest in the super eagles. They played like chickens as though they had nothing to lose, whereas the Congolese played their hearts out like mad men. The only compensation for missing the WC ticket is winning the nations cup, but can they win it?? |

Reference:Its obvious you dont watch football,Iwobi that is about our most inform midfielder,delivering everyday for Fulham and also doing well with the national side. |

They will grace the tournament for sure but will probably be among the first set of Nations to be knocked out. The Eagles are a team riddled with far below average players except of course VO. So for your own peace of mind do not give them much interest as nothing much is expected from them. |

Reference:I swear. It is so obvious . He plays as if he is just observing other players on the pitch and coaching them , he doesn't play as if he is part of the team at all. Anyway this is just the provisional list, let's wait and see who makes the final list |
| Re: AFCON 2025: Chelle Releases Super Eagles’ Provisional Squad by onatisi(m): 8:06am On Dec 03, 2025 |
Iwobi and that arokodare has no business even been near the team bus talk was of making provisional list Ragingthunder: |

I agree wit you 100%. I've this mindset too several times but, amongst the core home based team, we can blend them wit some of these foreigner players who are committed and hungry for success for the national team. Players like Osimhen, Sanusi Zaidu..and maybe few other Authoreety: |

sharminator5:I say what I know. Guess you don’t know any of the Super Eagles players personally. At least I know Keshi have some players who didn’t have ‘connection’ or money to lobby opportunity to play for the super Eagles. Forget what you are seeing on the media, it is he who’s given chance to play that you’d see. Most of this multimillionaires lobby for spots all, especially when they are not in their prime in their respective clubs. They use Super Eagles to come to limelight to ensure better transfer opportunities. Nwahiri organised closed matches between some ‘unknown’ players and those invited, except Mikel and few others who already have guaranteed spot. That’s wheat this manager should do. It doesn’t matter if the ‘unknown’ player plays in Nigeria or even in other African countries. Nigeria needs quality and patriotic players, not proud players who already know they are richer than the manager. |

Authoreety:Agreed. And I won’t expect these new Homebase’s to win trophy on their first outing, but let then form a team that in the next 2 years, they will be like Arsenal of today 😁 |
| Re: AFCON 2025: Chelle Releases Super Eagles’ Provisional Squad by Cmanforall: 8:52am On Dec 03, 2025 |
onatisi:His money longggg His connection is not here 😁 He’d play for Super Eagles until he voluntarily retires |

TheSPEAKER:WTF😲🙄 I thought as much, because I know it's only injury that can prevent that dude from being on that list. F*ck! This is not a good sign @ all. |

onatisi:Iwobi may have his flaws, even I always drag him too. But let's be honest, Iwobi is the best midfielder in this present squad. It is the entire team that needs tactical overhauling not solely Iwobi. I can only hope the coaching crew and NFF get it right someday and sometime soon. |
