Who remembers that guy that scored a goal against ChelseaFC in the FA Cup & was later drafted to the SuperEagles ? That dude was a super flop both for country and later for his clubside. |

Well I wouldn't blame any of the players after all, football is not written down like a movie script where everyone plays according to the script.. |

U don't just judge d ability of a player over a game or two and conclude he's a flop. Playin for clubsides is quite diff 4rm playin for ur country and u are likely gonna be playin wit totally unfamiliar faces. It's just lik sayin Diego Costa is a flop simply because his performance was below-par at the just concluded WC in Brazil. Most of dem were not given enough chance, dey weren't flops 1 Like |

Smartsyn: this list is not complete..Udeze was never hyped at any point in time. He quietly got into SE camp and the first time he played, one could hardly differentiate him from Babayaro. 5 Likes |

Syenite:Your list is inconclusive! Where's Pius Ikedia, Femi Opabunmi, Promise Isaac. Last Bullet Meanwhile, Christian Obodo played well & stayed for some time in the Super Eagles. |

Syenite: 1) Efan Ekoku: Widely tipped prio to 1994 AFCON to be better than Yekini.Only game he played was against Zaire in Qfinal where he missed a very glaring chance. He was subsequently returned to d bench and fastened with a seat belt. That was d only game he played for Nigeria even though he made the party to 1994 world cup.. Akpoborie and Agali were not over hyped. Akpoborie was often plagued with injury that was why he could compete in major tournaments. But he does well in our qualifiers. |

Wait oooo. The topic says "PLAYERS THAT FLOPPED AFTER BEING HYPED" and not all players that did not measure up. So all these Yakubu, Yobo, Opabunmi, Edema Fuludu, Obodo, Kaita, etc shouldn't appear at all. But all the same, we are catching some fun by bringing some names of forgotten players to the fore again. So let the fun continue. 2 Likes |

Their is this one over hyped fellow in the 1994 SE that no one has ever mentioned and that is......... CHIDI NWANU. I could remember the uncountable number of trips made to his base by Westerhof and some NFA members then. But at the world cup proper, I didn't see much of his impact on the field of play. |

Afam4eva: There was another flop by the name of Chukwu Ndukwe that was called up by former SE coach, Christian Chukwu. I don't know how on earth that guy found his wat to the team. He probably was Chukwu's relation. That guy had 100 chances and was only able to convert 1.enyia kedu ebe i no kemgbe? Ahu odikwa gi? Oteela aka m hu debere gi ebe a. |

These are examples of some nice and great players who never went far...I won't call them a flop... O Lord help me never to shine and stop but to keep shining till I die...Amen 1. James Obiora 2. Chris Onyemachara 3. Samuel Elijah 4. Garba Lawal 5. Taiwo Enegwea 6. Friday Elaho 7. Tunde Charity 8. Chris Ohenhen 9. Fatai Atere 10. Shola Ameobi - I'm not happy Keshi used Ameobi instead of Mba...Ameobi's patriotism smacks of hypocrisy only after he was rejected by England. 11. Chrisantus 12. Vanzekin 13. Chidi Nwanu - really didn't see much of him except in the US '94 games. 14. Wilson Oruma 15. Mobi Oparaku Let me think again... pls. |
