All the players Rohr invited since he took the job deserved it? grin

Nwakali brothers deserved a call? grin
Do you really think Rohr invited those ones he may give the impression that it's one man show.

I can assure you that's it's not.

You can say Siasia should not call someone. You can say you suspect Siasia of favouring his boys. Note having boys is different from collecting money to filled players.

Either way, I will wait to see what happens as the event unfolds.
The event has already unfolded. Even Amos Adamu claimed innocence.

Just because they are not named Ajagun or Kayode does not mean they don't deserve a call up

Nwakali is an immensely talented player that was called up for the B team to play Atletico Madrid, there is nothing wrong with that
Talent is not HIDDEN it's PROVEN in the field of play not on past glories.

His call up was totally and entirely NOT JUSTIFIED and a big slap on the faces of players who are far more deserving.

Nwakali failed in the Eredivisie a very lightweight league outside of Ajax and PSV the teams will be on par with English league one. Then after failing comprehensively he dropped to the Eerste Divisie. then after failing again he went to Porto B. Then to make matters worse he was largely on the bench playing a total of 16 games all season and not even full games.

Is that your definition of IMMENSE TALENT huh

The hard brutal facts are that you can call him anything you like DLP, AM, FAM( fast attacking midfielder) etc. Etc

You can get away from the fact is that he has been overwhelmingly WOEFUL. You may wish to hold in to youthful past glories but thats all history and completely irrelevant to professional first team football.

As it stands now he would struggle to get into and make a stand playing English non league football.

Until he starts to look perform he should not even be mentioned here. Otherwise we would also be justified in mentioning all the Nigerian origin players in non league and youth teams across Europe and or other obscure leagues.
I agree but truth of the matter is we're lacking a player of his profile in our team hence why people are hoping he gets on track.
If we can find a DLP - trust me folks will forget him easily.
Osimhen was seen in the same light and after a few setbacks, he's back on the right path and on his way to stack claim as our first choice CF(still has serious competition I know).
But like I've said before - we can negate the need for a DLP with a good ball playing CB.

They started the investigation on Siasia in February.
That explains everything. He's definitely guilty. I don't FIFA are so stupid to make unfounded accusations.

siasia's case was even a bit better. winning the afcon turned keshi to a demi god with monstrous ego which made him to feel untouchable.i was telling my close friends then that keshi's atrocities will come back to hit our football hard but they were all blinded by the afcon triumph.


many didn't know that pinnick was a God sent who rescued our football from the hands of a dictator and corrupt fellow
.

I hold nothing against keshi but wasn't and will never be among those who were blinded by his short lived success with the team.

coming to siasia's case i stopped to take him serious when he couldn't secure a job in the continent or even with a local club but hangs around and lobby for the senior team job or that of the u23. he failed to build on the success he made since getting to the finals of the u20 world cup and olympics in the space of 3 years which boasted his CV.

our local coaches are not serious and very corrupt as well
Please dont bring God into the matter.

I know Amaju right from when he was Chair of Warri Wolves, l know him Wella, " Sharp guy"

That's all l will say .

Its not about Ethics, but about how smart you play the game.

Platini, Blatter, etc we all know

Eince 1999 till date, i dont, cant exonerate any NFF President of what Sia1 is just banned for. They were smart. Infact if the glass house have whistle blowers coming out today, damning any consequences, im sure stones would be hurled and it would all be down to the dust within days. Destruction.


Aluko's story may pop up soon again......

For FIFA to ban this guy so suddenly and out of the blue means either they've been building up a case or they came across iron clad evidence
I have no problem with them banning Siasia. They should invite him and show him the evidences they have against him. When you are crashing a man's career, show him why.

You think, that has not been communicated to siasia.. Do you expect Siasia to admit guilt? Did Amos Adamu not claim innocence?

As I said, I listen to both sides. I do not join the bandwagon to scream murder.

For now Siasia said he did not know about it and was not invited. That is his statement. I do not know if he is saying the truth or not. Neither do you. So let us wait and see what happens.

Finito.

But how can they pronounce him guilty if he wasn't invited to defend himself. Anyway if he has the resources to go to CAS, he should put up a fight. Even murderers are allowed to defend themselves before conviction except na jungle justice.

somehow:
Let me educate you on what corruption is. BTW, Corruption is not all about money.

That said, will you say the 3 GKs we have used for 3yrs now are the best available?

What do you call taking injured players to tournaments when you have replacements?

What do you call playing players out of position so as to discard them with an excuse that they didnt do well?

Lastly, what do you call inviting players but not giving them fair play time to prove their worth even in dead rubber situation?

Like I said, corruption is not just about money. Viewing corruption with that lens will shut you out of the broader meaning.

Tell me if Rohr is nnot guilty of the aforementioned. his sin may likely not be up to that of siasia, Berti Vogt, Laggerback or Sam Allaydyce but he's no saint.
Who? When? Where?

So, we can talk about Siasia's corruption but we should not talk about Rohr because he's OYINBO and OYINBO is not corrupt?

Answer this simple question. Why did Rohr invite Chidiebere Nwakali to the national team? The guy even sat on the bench on two occasions.

I am not talking about team B oooooooo. grin
He wasn't on the bench

Siasia is not been truthful. The letter clearly stated that Siasia has been notified of their decision.

He can go ahead and fight the decision but they definitely have good evidence.
Waoh it's now a case of guilty until proven innocent.

The main reason why Siasia was banned was because he went into match fixing which made it a FIFA case. Those local coaches who collect bribes for player selection will not face punishment. That will be hard to stop.
