Calm down biko, he is just starting..

Success had good seasons in Spain.

Bazee had a great season with Hannover last year.

Okonkwo never even start..
How many of our players are scoring in the five(England,Spain,France,Germany and Italy) major leagues?

Why do u think Uzoho was called up?

Not every young player will be like Ogbeche.

I don't buy the crap about Uzoho not being in the first team because of the Language barrier. It's not like he speaks Igbo with the defenders in team B.

I thought Ebere Eze was the chap at Qpr? Anyway, he needs to move away from league 2 ASAP. Staying too long in the lower reaches takes alot away from a players development.
I watched 30 mins of Newport County some weeks back and I must say the level of the football I saw was not higher than the annual Christmas league they play in various Nigeria Villages/communities.

Bath Ogbeche is another example why you shouldn't give a teenager too much too early. He's a huge talent we lost due to the overzealousness in pushing away experience in exchange for the next shinny thing. I understand Bath is still very popular among the Psg faithfuls, they see him as an untapped potential.
I see alot of people already calling for Orji's inclusion into the Super Eagles. Ogbeche was at the same stage Orji was in 2002.....
Yes you are right on Uzoho,personally i didn't believe in language barrier stuff,he just need to work his way back to first team cos eagles number 1 is not for division three player.I watched the Nigeria - Argentina again yesterday,Uzoho has everything to be number 1 but need to play in first team to be more convincing and to gather more confidence and experience.

But isn't the only way to know progress by the number of games you play and how well you perform in them?

I guess it might be a way on the surface but the coach at the helms has a lot to do with if the player get's game time or not. If the coach doesn't believe in blooding in youths then the player more than likely will not play. This is not to say that Victor is better than Orji or anything like that.

Do u mean u will take a bench warmer to WC ahead of a starter?

Orji is currently better than Osimhen.

No player has ever progressed by sitting on the bench.

Neither of them starts but u are entitled to ur opinion I guess.

I don't think we need to talk much on this,these guys are for post 2018 WC.

Comparing Uzoho rise with Orji is two different things,Uzoho came into the team cos we need options due to unconvincing performance from Akpeyi and Ezenwa and till today any solid keeper can still break into the team cos we are still searching.

Ebere Eze is at QPR, he was loaned for experience. Hopefully, when he returns, he will get a shot at a first team slot.

Ogbeche is a victim of the Nigerian system. The 2002 WC squad was full of novices. Disbanding an established team was a terrible idea. Ogbeche should never have been a starter.

Rohr said the door is still open for Victor Osimhen and other fast forwards.

With Uzoho I think we are okay in the GK department but we need more options.

Our concern now should be "Who is our no.9?"

Rohr is not satisfied with Nacho as his no. 9, which is the reason he played Nwakaeme as his nine and started Nacho on the wings against Algeria, just to see if he can do well on the wings.

If Rohr is not satisfied with Ighalo and Nacho.
Who then,is the right man for the Eagles.

Probably , the search continues.

Not a bad idea considering the season we are in as WC season. Let me give you ideas: begin to do analysis of our matches. Get twitter and Instagram videos of what goes on in Super Eagles camp etc. Human angle stories might get more attention than analysis though.

I have seen Akpoguma on some few occasions. He is not even better than Awaziem, talk less of Ekong and Balogun.

I saw a bit of Deportivo vs Bilbao this afternoon. The first goal conceeded by Deportivo came as a result of bad defending and poor goal keeping.
It somehow appeared on camera the Deportivo no1 jumped over the ball. A bit hilarious, really.
Uzoho could end the season as Deportivo no 1. Hopefully they don't get relegated by the turn of the season.
David Degea spoke little English when he came to England.

your comment is a big joke.

Overhaul what? A defense that let in just two goals from open play in the third round of qualifiers?

A defense that held down an Argentine team that was firing from all cylinders?

Do you remember what your 2010 and 2014 defense looked like? Do you think it was better than what we have now?

Name the defenders you want to replace our current ones with, let us see if you are serious abi you want to turn our team to another fantasy team
