Edopesin: Adam Idah has been capped by Ireland after having his debut today
Hopefully he doesn't go the same way as Obafemi
https://pbs.twimg.com/media/Eg_GElwWkAAc4X_.jpg Maybe, maybe not, time will tell. He's not good enough for us ATM so he made the right decision. I don't know but going by antecedent, he will fizzle out soon. UK contries save for England always have young squad but they don't do sh*t. Their players hardly meet expectations -- perfect example is B. Woodbury Nevertheless, Goodluck to Idah |

Danielnino00: I think people have gotten too used to the era where it was easy for Nigerian players to falsify their ages to get into age grade tournaments,that they have refused to embrace a technology like MRI that has proven to be quite effective in reducing the rate at which overage players make our u-17 team. We are already reaping the reward through players like Osimhen, Chukwueze, Iheanacho,Ndidi, Awaziem,Omeruo,Nwakali, Awoniyi,Uzoho...
More will join the list..
Imagine somebody saying his 25 years old friend will be our star man at d next u-17 tournament .. . I don't know but I always believe that a player is close to the age he claimed to be especially when he passes MRI Scan -- maybe because I trust the technology based on what I read. I 'll likely continue to do so until I have first hand experience and enough reason to doubt our dear MRI. However, when a player joins overseas' club directly from our academy, I'm largely in doubt maybe because, I've seen a lot malpractices. Reasons for my doubt? Let go bit deeper. There's an academy in Enugu-ukwu onwned by Catholic diocese of Awka. In this same academy, 3 priests are known as decisions makers. When I first heard about it, I was happy but seeing their players, I got disappointed. Players are advised to get affidavit in order to have chance of going oversea. There's one program from Dr. Ifeanyi, I think it's called a footballer in every family or something close to that, I can't remember. In this program, some of standout 'young players' are from this Catholic academy and lucky for them, they got a clubs in Uzbekistan, etc....these guys are young officially, their 2016 photo go support say Dem dae young. **Some players that look younger are actually the oldest. I know two boys from Gboko and the other one from Anambra with this feature ** There's another one, a fine young defender who would have been in Serbia if not for injury. ** One of the fastest player there is over 30, he's from Calabar with no beards. ** One of their product was released from contract in abroad because of age cheat, I don't know how they find out. ** Their player was with Aigbogun's U-20 last year or so. He's a midfielder but was latter dropped. Infact, in that academy,,,, 95% are age cheat, It's a normal practice there. Though not all academy are like them but not far from them. As for MRI, I have no reason to doubt -- Not yet! |

Philosopher1979: WHY A LATVIAN TEAM WILL WIN THE CHAMPIONS LEAGUE
It may sound Absurd but a Latvian team may win the champions league one day. They are sourcing talents from football Academies in Nigeria and Africa. Africans are genetically talented for sports. This is how France used diasporan Africans to win the world cup. There are now many Nigerian players flocking there at an alarming rate. These Nigerian players are good but raw. What will happen in Latvia is that they will simply refine then and win Uefa or the Champions League with them. Africa's inability to manage human resources is funny. Other countries see it and take advantage. The difference between home grown Africans and diasporan Africans (who were born in Europe) is just the training and exposure. This is probably why Valmeria does not want to sell Tolu Arokodare. They want to fill their team with blacks, win things with them and peharps naturalize them to play for the national team. I dont know but we Africans dont know how to harness, use or develop talent. Human resources is something we dont understand Yeah, they can win it ONE day 100% |

komekn: I agree unreservedly, in my opinion our football has regressed.
At a time our players were players playing in the elite clubs of Europe and players with a very high profile.
Monaco, Inter, Arsenal, PSG, Ajax, Borussia, that's not the position anymore.
Consider our previous forward line up, Yakubu, Kanu, Amokachi, Osaze, Obagoal, Yekini, Ikpeba, Finidi, even our lesser forwards Anichebe, Kalu, Akpoberie, would walk into the current set up.
The current forwards may be making more money but lf we were to go back in time l can't see Ighalo and Osimhen displacing any of our former stars. Wtf is Achebe  Osimhen better pass Anichebe x5, no exaggeration. No be by body size. Hahaha,,,, Achebe hahaha You won't kill me |

komekn: Available options** 1) Osimhen - good quality yet to be proven at Higher quality Seria A. 2) Iheanacho - EPL flop 3) Simon - Good 4) Chukwueze - 3 goals in 37 games, a lot of development work required. 5) Kalu - Ok but not outstanding 6) Onyekuru - Good but unproven at Higher level 7) Musa - EPL flop
Onauchu - unable to justify selection from games played in the SE 9) Dessers. - untested at a higher level 10) Umar - very low quality league ( village champion) 11) Nwaekeme - untested at a higher level 12) Ejuke - untested at a higher level 13) Iwobi - midfielder 14) Kayode - Good potential but untested in SE opportunity not given.
None of these players has attained the level of Ighalo and none of them is better than him. The only player able to contend is Osimhen.
We talk about players in form, what will be Osimhen form in the much more quality and competitive Seria A.
He will not be the focal point of the team and with a ball played into space and or over the top of defenders for him to run onto as the main strategy will simply not work in Seria A. This league is well know for defending and closing spaces.
This is a test that Ighalo has already passed with flying colours, PROVEN, TESTED and CONFIRMED.
If we bring Vic Moses into the equation none of them has played at his level and or exceeded his ability. Football is here and now! Ighalo has zero goal/assist in the said higher level league. Even wastedmen Lingard and Solanke has better stat. We don't dwell in donkey years ago, his exploit in EPL before the current season is past tense! |

komekn: Assumptive delusion based on sentimental preference.
Osimhen is not more skilful and or technically astute than Ighalo. Victor main attribute is pace.
Victor has not completed two seasons of first team competitive football. So there are many lessons to learn his early good start does not guarantee top quality perfomance in the future. Victor is doing great at the moment. If he flops in future, we will replace him as we have replaced Ighalo and Vicmo. |

He's a proven striker for the SE and if he should play for us again he will start ahead of Osimhen that's unproven So far, Osimhen has been good , his early days is better than that of Ighalo. Talent, skill and SE style, Osimhen is better. Here and Now too, Osimhen is better. Ighalo should enjoy his pension |
