As the player who won the 1987 European Cup (now Champions League) for FC Porto, I don't expect Rabah Madjer to make such comments.

Yes he was part of the 1990 Nations Cup winning Algerian team that beat Nigeria 5-1 in the opening match, but those days are long gone.
Re: Rabah Madjer: "Nigeria Is A Team Of Benchwarmers" by braimeddy: 9:26am On Nov 09, 2017
What he's trying to say is that the current squad that wants to play against them are bench warmers. He's not saying our 1st team are bench warmers. The likes of Iheanacho, Musa and Co may like play and our 1st team like Victor Moses, Simon Moses etc may be absent

Yeah a team of benchwarmers that has successfully won every qualifying game in a group with Algeria and all the champions so now let's see how these benchwarmers would complete the job.

if you follow football well, better still if you are a nairabet fan you will know the following
shehu, our right back is not a bench warmer, he just captained anorthosis.
balogun leon is not a bench warmer, he starts for mainz when fit, he only has problem with injuries
Troost Ekong is a sure bet for bursaspor in turkey
mikel obi starts for Tianjin Teda
Onazi is a sure banker for trabzonspor
As you know, no replacement yet for Ndidi in Leicester
victor moses starts for chelsea despite his village people's intervention to import zapaccosta
simon moses start for Gent
ighallo starts for changchun yatai.
only echiejille am not sure about.
It is crystal clear that you and the algerian coach are just lazy, football is not played only in England, you have to look at other countries and check them out before you make this bogus claim. I pity the algerian f.a they just hired a lazy coach that wont scout algerian players playing in less glamourous leagues.

Don't mind the buffon.

He forgot Wilfred Ndidi, Victor Moses et all.

Well, I would rather prefer players warming the bench in their clubs, going to Russia and representing their countries to players playing regularly at their clubs, but staying at home warming their sofas and seats when football starts in the mundial in 2018 in Russia.

Still pained they would be watching the mundial on TV with all the First team players in their kitty. The Eagles should be smart enough to avoid getting injured in the match, as it is a dead rubber game. I don't trust the North Africans. They are hostile and could pull unnecessary pranks.

LOL. All these Ezenwa you are talking about are not supposed to be in Super Eagle. No body fears them or expect much from them. The Algerian coach is referring to reliable players that can make opponents fear when they handle ball. May be Iwobi and probably Moses. But that is just 2 players out of about 17 or more players
Re: Rabah Madjer: "Nigeria Is A Team Of Benchwarmers" by Nobody: 9:48am On Nov 09, 2017
Wetin I no go hear for African football again? Maja-Maja or what ever it is you call yourself, BE WARNED! Come to think of it,I consider it a big indictment on Algerian football that a team of "regular club" players couldn't make it to a tournament that a "team of bench-warmers" qualified so effortlessly for. If the Super Eagles are bench-warmers,then the entirety of the Desert Foxes are a bunch of over-hyped and over-rated players. #Fact.

Obviously, Even his star player, Mahrez is sometimes substituted but Wilfried Ndidi play full 90 minutes and get rested for serious matches.


That will not stop our boys from whiping their ass tomorrow.


Here are some our players' form in their clubs

Anthony Nwakaeme is a lead scorer in the Israeli league and he is a regular player in the team. He is playing for Hapoel Be'er Sheva

William Ekong plays for Bursaspor in Turkey, he plays full 90 minutes without being substituted.

Alex Iwobi is a Regular player in Asernal.

Odion Ighalo plays for Changchun Yatai in China, he plays full 90 minutes and also a lead scorer in their league.

Ikechukwu Ezenwa is an outstanding goal keeper in his former club FC Ifeanyi Ubah before his contract ended recently. Of course he wants to test other waters that made him not to renew his contract with the club . He is a free Agent now, Seria A clubs in Italy are going for him presently.

Abdullahi Shehu is the team captain at Cyprus club Famagusta. He plays full 90 minutes too.

Moses Simon plays for first division A club, KAA Gent in Belguim, he plays regularly and scores for the club.


Chidozie Awaziem plays Ligue 1 Nantes in France, he plays full 90 minutes and scores for the club too.

Ola Aina plays for Championship Hull city in England, on a loan from Chelsea. He is a regular player in the club.

Mikel Obi plays for Tiandin Teda FC in China, he plays full 90 minutes.

Ndidi and Victor Moses is already in your list, don't just jump to conclusion when you know little or nothing in the subject.

Don't mind the guy, the only Nigerian players he knows are Ahmed Musa and Kelechi Iheanacho. He thinks Ndidi is a Ugandan, by the time we finish with him and his supposed 1st team players he'll be forced to do another research on Super Eagles

So obvious that this guy doesn't know about his players and doesn't watch the reigning African footballer and Algerian star, Riyadh Mahrez.

If he follows his star player, Mahrez and watches him playing for Leicester City FC week in and out, he will notice a Nigerian footballer called Wilfried Ndidi playing the defensive midfield role in all their matches.

You dey mind this mouthy coach. When SE beat his boys silly in Algiers, he will realize that his boys are not even bench warmers, but ball boys at their various clubs angry

1. The Algerian coach said apart from Iwobi, the Nigerian team players are on the bench for their respective clubs.

2. You said he is right.

3. I am simply asking you to name the Nigerian national team members who are on the bench for their clubs.

Can you do that?
