He Will be selected. Favoritism is 70% far from NFF at the moment. U can't bench the already known stars and bring in some mediocre players.. Nigerians go react as usual

Mttchee, that one 3 lions career don end even before e start. Harry Kane is just 23 and will be there for many years. Welbeck is young too, then a Vardy who is having a sparking late career.

He was not at his best yesterday but he has built a solid partnership with William Ekong at the heart of our defence.

To qualify with a game to go in a group that has almighty African teams like Algeria, Cameroon and Zambia is no easy feat.

I'm proud of you guys.

It’s show off not showed off. What is it with Nigerian bloggers using past tenses inappropriately. It can be off-putting sometimes sad

No Kain dance wey dem no go use this our defenders dance for Russia. By the time General Messi dance python dance on top their hand, we go no say these our defenders are average at best, nay most of our players.

Congrats to him anyways. I watched him yesterday and i salute his undying and unwavering patriotism to the team.

He didnt really do bad as well but he needs to do much more if he wants to have a nice exposure in the WC. He needs more confidence and stamina.
