I envy dis guys with d way they convince deir players ..very swift ,at least we can’t say drc is better Dan us in football terms generally (infrastructure and all) ,how come Dey convince deir top talents with ease

So many things could be the case.

Nigeria and it's organization leadership.

The quality of the talents in question.

DRC won't have been able to convince the likes of Olise,Saka,Mbape and the rest of the talents who already saw themselves as a top top prospect.
As it's easy to convince a player whose talent is not yet visible for all to see.

And beside Nigeria did convince the majority of the players they tried to convince.
I can only remember few we failed to convince that really merit playing for super eagles.

Olise,Saka,Eze,Madueke,Tomori, Abraham,Adarabioyo.

We got,
Iwobi, Aina,Lookman,Bassey,Ajayi,
Okoye,Fernandez,the guy who wears our no.10, oyibo wall in recent past.

Plus so many we convinced that failed to measure up,Kevin Akpoguma,Kinsley Ehizibue and the likes.

Don't forget those who are just average, Joe Aribo,Tyronne Ebuehi,Dessers,Tella,Josh Maja.

And majority of those foreign Borns playing for other African countries won't make it in super eagles.

Any updates from the Chinese league? Are our players no longer good enough for them? Ever since we had our legends like Martins, Ighalo and Mikel there, no other Nigerian player seems deserving to go to China. Hopefully we get a turnaround soon.

! This is my kind of midfielder oo, if this little clip is anything to go by. Plays like Mubarak Wakaso, one of the Ghanaian midfielders I loved watching. Same type of player as Gibson Yah. I love my men strong and bullish.

A synergy with Nwannadi in the midfield looks mouthwatering.

Physical dominance and presence is the first thing you notice in David Ozoh's game. He's been this way since Crystal Palace. Very Strong lad.

My concern though is with his 2nd and 3rd phase of play traits. I wanna see how that pans out in the GWG. I hope it does for good.

This guy is a bully
If he's able to break into the team, having him, Bassey and Osimhen in the same team will give opponents something to think about o..

I already see Nnadi taking over from Onyeka
If this guy can give us 80-90% what Ndidi gives under Chelle
Then with Iwobi as our Creator in Chief
E don finish be that
