You can only deceive an ignoramus mumu not me.

You said you don't want academy players invited to the national team but how come you don't know why Alex Iwobi was invited to the Super Eagles when he was an academy player, U19 for that matter? I am asking you ooooooo.

jotey:
Fifa rules require that an application be made from the
interested association seeking for permission before a
player switches his allegiance, but the world football
ruling body clarified that the Gunner can represent
Nigeria as he did not feature for England in an official
game.

October 5, 2015.

kudos to rohr

Humility017:
a player who plays for league 1.... do u want rohr to loose his job?

forgiveness:
So, you didn't know that Nigeria cho-chop coaches made the list.

This was not the best players as at that time. Imagine Igbonu and some players making the list.

Kakamorufu:
lol. Am just saying

jotey:
compare the eagles team of then and now

if you can't see the reason then I don't know what to say again

tbaba1234:
Barca B is still playing at a lower level same as Real Madrid Castilla. The structure in Spain is the same as in Holland and Portugal. Porto has Porto B, Ajax has Jong Ajax. Many of their players never make it to the top flight. Our own Derik Osede is now in league 1 after playing for Real madrid Castilla.

If i see a clearly outstanding talent in the league, I will come here to advocate for the player. I was in Nigeria a couple of years ago and watched many league games. I can not say, i was blown away by the quality. Chisom Egbuchulam, who was Nigeria's best player last year could only secure a loan deal in Sweden. That is not to say there are not players that could possibly make the super eagles squad but they are few. After all, Kante was picked from lower divisions.There are always diamonds in the rough, let them play CHAN and show themselves.

I started actively following the Nigerian league in the early 1990s and followed several teams through those years. I am not an enemy of the league but at this time, we have better players outside.

jotey:
prince aggrey ....femi Thomas were even making the list

thank God oliseh is gone

forgiveness:
E bi like say na London you dey live because if you are conversant with the Nigerian Football, you will understand what we call Nigerian factor. That is what paid out in that yeye list released by Nigerian coach.


It was not the best and an academy player was not suppose to make the list, no matter the circumstances but many welcomed it because we don't know what he might turn out to be.


His first match was nothing near impressive but when he started playing for Arsenal, it very easy for him to agree to play for us.

That one, na em bi common sense, na.

Humility017:
seriously that man almost finish super eagles...
imagine onobi benching Mikel and Chima Ankas benching elderson ...maybe that's the kind of set up many clamouring for home base players wanna see.


as for me any move by rohr to shun mediocrity is welcome..

jotey:
you are very correct
home based players should win Chan first before we reason their matter

This aluko you are all arguing about you forget he also played in the EPL he didn't set the league on fire was released by hull city because he is doing well in the championship a lesser quality league competition he is now better than success and Simon Moses. Very funny success that posted man of the match performances in Grenada and against Middlesbrough is now a waste okay o as for Moses Simon he plays for gent the team that beat Tottenham in the Europa cup the same Tottenham that flogged aluko's Fulham senseless in the FA Cup yet sone is better ok o

Solanke went to vitesse didn't cut it is now on the bench while his mates like rashford, loftus cheek, origi, iwobi etc are playing first team football let him continue sitting on the bench getting young promising player Awards from alaroye newspaper while other serious people achieve something with their careers

jotey:
when you know it is a yeye list then I wonder why you are complaining about iwobi

same scenerio can never happen @ the moment ..as long as rohr is in charge

forgiveness:
Did you read where I complained about Iwobi's inclusion to play for Nigeria while he he was still playing with Arsenal U19 team?

No, My reference on Iwobi's inclusion was to buttress my case that an identified potential talented academy player eligible to play for other countries and Nigeria should be called to the national team. Period.

I have proven that.

Kog45:
Stop it my man,nobody is saying creating a slot for any home based.If they merit it,they should be called ASAP.They are Nigerian and super eagle is not meant for only foreign based.

I believe PSG is worse than River United with this result,so what a fuss.

My point is cleared,it is better for Rohr to look inward than inviting player from obscure league of Bosnia,Cyprus or division 3.

I already agreed with u that no local good for Eaagles coz u watched d league and i don't have d opportunity of recent.

jotey:
you did not prove anything

even akpom would have made the SE then

oliseh was the coach

same scenario cannot repeat itself agn..chikena.

forgiveness:
NFF and Okocha was involved in Iwobi's case. Since, na the same NFF, it can repeat itself again.

I don open your yansh many things na but you no wan shame.

TheGoodJoe:
One word to explain Aluko's predicament at Hull City. Steve Bruce. That man is more analog than a 1960 telephone. The man did not appreciate or have he ability to put Aluko to use. We do not have a talent who can create room for our wingers and forwards to shine.

Aluko's ability to hold the ball and operate in tight spaces makes him an asset to the team.

We should judge Aluko by his current form and he is one of our most in form players. It defies logic not calling him because of an analog thinking Bruce.

jotey:
you have not open any yansh here

okocho was involved fine

iwobi also showed commitment and trained with our u-23 hence his call up

meanwhile ojo cannot do the same

can ojo come to Lagos to train with amuneke boys?

forgiveness:
I have already and na ya yanch.

You are just running from pillar to post.

If we had ya mentality, Iwobi will be playing with the three lions now.

Kakamorufu:
wow. I've missed out on this thread. it's never late sha

goldfish80:
These teams you mentioned have their second teams playing playing professional football at the lower level. While in England it's totally different. Second teams of clubs in the Premiership play in the U23 development league.
The so called Barca B players are allowed to train with their first team and they are registered by the Spanish FA in a list of 35+ who can feature for the first team.

Your second point is invalid with due respect. That Chisom Egbuchulam signed for a Swedish team does not mean he's not better talented than some who play in more fancied league. Do you know the player of the tournament at the last Afcon, Bassogog was playing in Denmark this January?
Yet game after game he proved to be unplayable while facing opponents who play in more fancied league. This should give you a food for thought.
Football is not played on paper. You judge players based on their skill set and ability.
Hugo Bross would not have won a game at the Afcon if he had your kind of mindset.

We can't continue to wait for Europeans to buy our players before we are convinced they are good. This shows how lazy the black man is.
