but you have to admit playing a bench warmer from Dutch league if we're using fairness is also not right. Abi bench get levels? grin
The levels and the quality of these players are clear and obviously different
Alampasu has been wandering in Latvia and Portugal for the past 5 years despite being a golden glove and a world cup winner
Okoye started 2 and half years again after he left Leverkusen right now he is in sparta he is prodigy in the team you don't expect the coach to just start him like that hell no!!! He needs to trust him and build his confidence the league is different from carpenters and retirement league like Latvia this is eredivise for Christ sake.

Oga,Europa league is Europa league whether qualifying,group stage or knockout. When your Maduka was conceding goals in German 4th tier,was that not also a woeful performance?
Soro soke oga
Rohr invited Okoye coz there was no depth in GK department where was alampasu when Okoye dey regionliga even his stats for Portuguese is not found so probably all those he played in age grade teams are balderdash and not substantive claims
Forgiveness brought out Okoye stat in regionaliga tell him to do the same for Alampasu.

I'm being optimistic but not getting my hopes too high yet grin .. the NBBF are definitely romancing him after that interview of his grin .

As for Kostas,his stats aren't that impressive,though he could improve...

BTW, I'm looking forward to the draft.. There are about 6 eligible entries of Nigerian origin including Nwora on the list...

The future of our basketball looks bright.. probably brighter than our football's grin
No not Kostas, his little brother Alex that is just entering college (although I think he is going pro).

Yeah I think we have spoken about the draft. High hopes my man. I hope Nwora can get to a good team where he can develop. Not some lottery team.

your club form gets you invited to the national team how you then perform in the SE will show if you will return. If Onazi gets back to form in denmark don't be surprised that he will earn a recall faster than Onomah who is playing in the EPL
Then what has Okoye done in club level?

Okay

But he has played 630 minutes this season or is that not more than most of our GK minutes ?

My point is not even him being a starter but getting some minutes against tunisia but most of you guys are talking down on him as if maduka is even starting at the netherlands

So whats your point ?

So europea league qualifiers no be better game abi?

Smh
I made the point he started 3 games this season and no clean sheet , his team lost this games and a draw I guess he was dropped to the bench later on and played in cup games which he conceded 4 goals
And the Europa games he played was against the Slovakian team and they lost the games

So because alampasu played Europa qualifiers then he is better than okoye huh Then you must be saying absolute rubbish.
N.B Alampasu chop in the last 4 games
In the last 3 games Okoye chop 6 goals. What do you have to say about that?

If we add the two he chop during the friendlies it will be 8 goals.

What you said doesnt make any single sense , and if what you said was true then Gernot rohr is a stupid man for that

Who calls a player and doesnt want to make him part of the team ?

All national teams and club do have 3 goal keepers , if uzoho wasnt injured then maybe maduka would not have gotten his chances

You cannot call 3GK and say only one can be part of the team then the remaining 2 are just there so snap pictures
Even for clubs who play plenty meaningless games we hardly ever see second and third choice keepers. Martinez spent almost 10 years at arsenal before he got decent run games. I think the reason why you guys are getting upset is because we don't have a regular top 3 yet, when we do other keepers will hardly get a look in. If Uzoho was fit I'm quite sure Rohr would have used him for both games and people no go too complain because y'all know he's the number 1. Maybe the coach should have given the other guys some game time but I'm just trying to let you guys know that what Rohr has done is not strange in football

shocked shocked chinekemeeeee! Like I said, Rohr is clueless. See a natural AMF that doesn't need paper work got called like that in Rohr's nose. The guy doesn't know what he is doing.
The clueless coach will wait till he is provisionally captied by France before pretending to be approaching him, just the way he did with Eze.

In all honesty,Rohr goofed big time by not giving Alampasu and Yakubu game time...
I don't care if they play in Georgia... Okoye isn't first choice..be isn't a regular at his club either .he just came back from playing in the German 4th tier..

Like I said before,I don't see what purpose the friendlies served at the end... No improvement in our pattern of play and the same nonsense of using makeshift players...
My own anger is the outfield players he refused to use, especially not giving Agu, Dessers and Ejuke enough game time plus Aina not getting a single minute that's the real crime no be all these average goalies people have been crying about.

Look at someone who wants to give me a history lesson. He can't remember anything about Ighalo's horror show in the SE at that time, but he has made excuse for him already.

Of all the games he started how many goals did he score? Ok, aside the ones he scored against Chad, if he was prolific who would have sat him on the bench?

Ighalo scored against Chad then he wasn't invited until Oliseh quit the team.

After misfiring in 2 legs against Egypt during Sia1's time, He did same against Tanzania, Rohr then rightly sent him out of the team, too bad our other strikers didn't step in to do better, then he was recalled for the Cameroonian game where he reclaimed his spot, from then on till the conclusion of the World Cup, he scored zero goals, zilch!!! This is a player y'all are touting to be a savior of some sort?
So his father didn't die? Are fathers not important to some?

He scored against Chad and was not invited for the subsequent matches. Siasia brought him back into the fold. Why would I argue facts? Yes he had a poor world cup but he put his head down and worked harder to prepare for his next opportunity. We all know how that turned out even though u also didn't mention that one.

See u are just a hater trying to use football as a cover. All u did was tell the side of the story that favours ur motive. Ighalo is not the striker of the team. That job belongs to Victor Osimhen EOD. At the end of the day the anger really is that the man ended his story perfectly. U would have been much happier if he had flopped even prior to the AFCON.

Alampasu had played in the Portuguese 3rd division, became second choice goalkeeper for a team that got promoted to the Portuguese first division, became the 3rd choice goalkeeper for a team in the Portuguese first division before he played in Latvia first division when Okoye was still playing in the German four tier football league.

Them don dey yarn like say Rohr has been giving GK chances and decided to stop now. We all know how Uzoho was used only after those blunders from Akpeyi. When Uzoho was performing poorly he was dropped for Akpeyi, who was also dropped for Ezenwa after he performed poorly too. Ezenwa was also poor and we had Uzoho back as the first choice. Okoye only got his chance when Uzoho picked an injury against Brazil.
Rohr will only drop Okoye for either Alampasu or Yakubu if he performs badly or gets injured and this is subject to the availability of Uzoho.

Three special players urgently needed in Gernot Rohr’s Super Eagles side

October 13, 20204 min readHotgist


The Tremendous Eagles of Nigeria are getting ready for the AFCON 2022 qualifier with a double pleasant within the on-going worldwide break.

Nonetheless, there are requirements that ought to be taken care of with quick impact on the staff.

Regardless of having a younger staff which may be very a lot laden with high quality, there are nice wants for sure gamers to fill in some needed void within the Tremendous Eagles staff.

It can go a great distance in getting ready them for large video games (robust battles) sooner or later, at the same time as competitors can be achieved among the many Eagles combine.

With these gamers absent regardless of being talked about within the Nigeria soccer hemisphere, we attempt to spotlight them on the subject of their pressing significance to the current facet below the watch of supervisor Gernot Rohr.

Kelechi Nwakali (UD Huesca, Spain)

The proficient midfielder could have struggled to seek out his ft as a participant however his U-17 exploits because the Captain of the triumphant Golden Eagles of 2015 remains to be strongly remembered by Nigerian followers.


He’s been overtaken by his fellow U-17 colleagues in Victor Osimhen (SSC Napoli) and winger Samuel Chukwueze (Villarreal).

Each have gone to make their debut for the Tremendous Eagles at the same time as they have been each on the rating sheet towards Lesotho, with Osimhen being the catalyst on that event.

Nonetheless, Nigerians are starting to glamour for his providers within the staff, particularly because the Tremendous Eagles facet is in dire want of an attacking midfielder who can hyperlink the play (midfield) to the assault in transition.

Ovie Ejaria (Studying, England)

Regardless of the information that the participant has dumped England to play for Nigeria as curiosity wasn’t coming from the British nation, he’s but to be known as as much as the Tremendous Eagles.

It was earlier reported within the media that his paperwork has been submitted to FIFA for his change of allegiance to the nation of his dad and mom.

However nothing concrete has emanated from that state of affairs because it regards Ovie Ejaria being licensed to play for Nigeria.

Although the staff has acquired the expertise of Joe Aribo, Alex Iwobi and Wilfred Ndidi going for them within the midfield, nonetheless, Ejaria is required as quickly as attainable within the present younger staff.

To some extent, the wingers are struggling to supply the ultimate ball as a result of they’ve acquired extra work to do to make the help for the central striker. However, Ejaria has acquired what it takes to make it simple on the pitch for Nigeria.

He can launch the winger like Samuel Kalu and Moses Simon to an important impact whereas coordinating proceedings in midfield as a matter of his true high quality.


Eberechi Eze (Crystal Palace, England)

The Crystal Palace star has moved from QPR (Queens Park Rangers) to the Selhurst Park after an eventful season within the English Championship.

He’s been superior for the Blue and White at the same time as they didn’t make it to the Premier League. He’s been praised by Palace boss Roy Hodgson with hope for the long run.

Regardless of becoming a member of the membership (Crystal Palace) simply final month, his efficiency reveals that barring damage Crystal Palace could not be capable of maintain him on the membership for a very long time.

He’s been linked with the prospect of becoming a member of up with Nigeria’s Tremendous Eagles. Nonetheless, his incapability to resolve for Nigeria is making the followers to lose sleep over his availability for the Tremendous Eagles.

How nicely he’s wanted is a proof of Nigeria’s curiosity to solidify the midfield along with his immense expertise on the pitch.
