I didn't watch the 1980s and the rest. I wasn't football inclined in 2007. Football had become a religion to me before 2013, and I watched the u17 team, so I give it to the 2013 team. |

Dem neva born me by 1985, so i no fit comment on dat one.In 1993 i was still below 10 and so no detailed analysis of dat one too.Btw 2007 and 2013,i will give it to 2007 not because they are more organized but because they met seemingly stiffer oppositions,not 4getting coach Adeyemi Tella. |

I think the 2013 team was the best I've ever seen from an under-17 group because they were heads and shoulder above their mates . Their team play was very coherent(they play as a unit) and they were very devasting and ruthless in front of goal.. Of course the 1993 team was also a great one and most of them went on to play for the Super Eagles. Let see what happens with this lot(the 2013 team). |

Daninya11:Japan'93 was really awesome and complete squad. Nigeria played with a lot of charisma and never conceeded a goal till the knock out stages and scored all goals before opponents could. Oruma, Kanu, Mobi, Babayaro, Karibe Ogigwe, and so on were so great in terms of ball control and played typical Nigerian football. The most interesting thing about the team is that some of the players went ahead to win the Atlanta'96, taught the world how to play attacking football. At a time, Bonfere Jo played 4-2-4 formation against Brazil when we were 3-1 down, luckily for us, the Brazilians benched Ronaldo thinking they had already won. 1 Like |

In other words, I strongly believe that we need a well-tactical Dutch coach in the senior team who can bring back our pattern of play or have the same philosophy of coaching with that of Japan'93 team |
Re: Which Nigeria U-17 Team Will You Consider The Greatest? ??? by docadams: 7:43am On May 07, 2015 |
omar22: I completely agree with you. We cannot discontinuance the 1985 squad. They were the pacesetters in global competition for Nigeria in football. I'll be back to back my claim. |

axeman10:I watched the 1993 Class of the G Eaglets,in fact I followed the team through their camping at Rojenny Oba,Anambra State to their tour of the Netherlands,qualifiers and Tournament proper,uptill today I can name most of the Squad members more than any set,so I believe am as much qualified as anybody to make a call on who is the greatest Class of all and without any doubt in my mind, the Class of 2013 is the GREATEST Nigeria have produced,they were YOUNGER,Scored more Goals 26,the highest ever in U17 history,more of a Team,more consistent in the Tournament,more SWAGGER(we'll beat you and there's nothing you can do about it),the 1993 set arguably have the better individual players and that's about it.. 3 Likes |

haibe:The final of Japan'93 was very beautiful. Ghana thought they gonna win even before the match. They committed defensive error and we capitalized on it to score the second goal. The match was about to finish and they were crying. Fanny Amu, sorry for my spelling had to signal to our boys to take it easy that Ghanaians are our African brothers, so we allowed them to score a goal 1 Like |

Some fantastic analysis here....and really brings back some fond memories...like watching the second goal scored by our no 9 in the 1993 U17 final in me grandad's house...and jumping up for joy. Great team? 1993 wins hands down. 2007 should have been a great team too...but y'know.... 1 Like |

As a person that followed all the U17 teams of Nigeria from inception in 1985, I can cate gorically tell you the 2013 team was the best and the youngest, my second best team was the Japan 93 team and we all saw what they later achieved. The worse is the 2007 one because of age cheating, the average true age in that team in reality is 28 that is why as at today you hardly hear of anyone of them. The 2013 team is so promising and young though I cannot vouch for them all being under 17 then but am optimistic of them. Doing well at future assignments. |

Dah!!! I didn't watch 1993 squad. Lemme talk of de one I watched. Dats 2007, 2009 and 2013. I even prefer 2009 to 2007, only dat 2009 lost in the finals, while 2007 won it. But, the best for me is 2013. U could juz enjoy urself while watching those guys play. U juz had confidence in dem. A complete team. |
