That's a lie we started enjoying enyeama from get-go, his 2002 World Cup debut against England still lives fresh in our memories. The home based goalkeeper up against all mighty three lion squad. I remember the save he made from a Paul scholes shot. That experience at the World Cup literarily transformed him, he became Enyimba's top goalie leading them to back to back CAF glory. His weakness was his penalty deficiencies which he improved on subsequently at the AFCON where he saved two penalties against Tunisia. In the World Cup match against Argentina at 2010 and 2014 he was arguably the man of the match. Messi walked up to him to shake hands.

Bros in afcon 2004 Enyeama we saw was a bit of an upgraded version of shaky okoye... The penalty shootout against Tunisian he made so many wrong reading and wrong move towards penalty direction... but he came back better stronger and more experienced against the same Tunisia in 2006... From there he announced his goalkeeping masterclass to the world... We saw him replicate same penalty shootout against Zambia.. we saw him replicate brilliant saves against Messi in 2010 2014... We saw him leading Nigeria to the African glory in 2013...
so to me we started enjoying eyeama from African 2006

It's one thing to defend okoye , but then it's another thing to push his blame on another person. What kind of goalkeeper trainer were the likes of Ike shoromu , Vincent enyeama and ikema having while they were replicating confidence inspiring performances.

My prayers are that he has improved , I want a man of the match performance from him, it's not too much to ask for. Others do it. But I pray the Ghanaian side do not peg us down so much that we will need our goal keeper to inspire us to a favorable result.




I understand you, but look at it, Ikeme was an oldies, experienced keeper before coming, Enyeama had to understudy Ike before taking over as a young goalie, then later OK was Enyeama trainer at NT


from what's that guy name sef, had forgotten, to Akpeyi, to Uzoho and now Okoye, we can decide to try new method by replacing Agu, or still call up all, and any keeper we like, without a good trainer, they Weill continue to make mistakes and

How do you know that ❓How many Nigerian origin players in England have you spoken too ❓❓

Your final paragraph is befuddled and doesn't make any sense to me.
Gabby Agbonlahor
Tammy Abraham
Dele Alli
Nedum Onuoha
Fikayo Tomori
Eberechi Eze
Michael Olise are all English-Nigerians

Players like Matty Cash accepted call up from Poland despite speaking zero Polish
Callum Styles has been called up Hungary (doesn't speak the language)
George Baldock will be called up by Greece (doesn't speak the language)
Ashley Barnes accepted Austria call up before the country's strict nationality requirements ruled him out.
You didn't hear any of them giving excuses of wanting more time like majority of English-Nigerian players

Easy Sir.

You predicted that Nigeria will fall to Egypt, we saw the converse.
You predicted that Nigeria will rout Tunisia. we were beaten.

I want us to defeat Ghana, but you coming out to prophesy our win will not make me doubt our triumph. Maybe your prophesy will work this time.

The coaching crew have a lot work to do, Akpeyi is almost 36 and at none of the current goalkeepers we have at the moment can guarantee you 8/10 displays on a regular basis unless we decide to be patient with the young ones we have right now.

Ebuehi is one of the FBs who is very passionate about playing for Nigeria since Rorh begged him. He has played passionately whenever called upon, I believe he's not been treated fairly, starting from Rohr to now Egu. To even think that he's classic, to he replaced by one non-product I've player in the name of multiple roles. Pains me though.

that's the point, are we patient, nope we are not,

look at the goalkeepers, Maduka had been in action since after Afcon, going on to keep 3cleansheets in a roll, can same be said of Uzoho who majority had been calling to replace Maduka?

Akpeyi don't knewof his club situations, since after Afcon,

One problem we had was that these our new set of young goalkeepers had no one to understudy.
We had the likes of ike shorunmu understudying Peter Rufai before staking a claim as the number one
Enyeama understudying ike shorunmu before staking a claim as the number one GK
Austin ejide and Aiyenugba always working hand-in-hand with enyeama..
The likes of okoye and uzoho do not have the privilege of understudying any of our goalkeeper legend on their active field duty.. the more reason we should give both of them chance to keep improving

Oliseh came and chased away Enyeama, then Ikeme was the hurried replacement that cancer collected, before we had to scramble and ended up with these younger players.

If Pinnick was a decent human being, he should have brought in Ikeme to the Technical Crew and sent Alloy Agu on sabbatical, but because NFF, like everything Nigerian, is corrupt and tainted, Pinnick just left Agu to continue collecting money while pretending to be a goalkeeper trainer.

Are you ok Sir? Is saving a penalty any of the top criteria for judging a goalkeeper? Can a good goalkeeper not get better? The fact that he made those saves in the 2010/2014 world cup doesn't make him any less good prior. He just got better and better with age. Enyeama aged well, unlike most of those that came before him.

You lots shouting Addo and Chris Houghton, hope you know coaching a football club and a national team (especially an African team) is different? This is also Addo's first time being the head coach of a senior team.

We will miss ndidi, but I think Ajayi will also do a great job as a DMF.

Finally, I hope chukwueze works on himself. He hugs the line way too much making it hard to link with the striker or amf. If not that musa best days are over, would have preferred him.

You see, the problem here is that we have a goalkeeper that is doing great at his club, it's just not translating as much to the national team

Perhaps if there was someone who had a recent memory of how to operate on the international stage, things would be easier.

It's so disgraceful

They don't have any plans to positively impact the nation and build their profile. It is to be taking pictures with leaders of questionable character.

If the younger players who are mostly based abroad are even misbehaving like that, I will understand that dem no know wetin dey sup, but these older people are following us to suffer this gross mismanagement of resources and none of them have thought to even compete in their state elections and provide better options.

A disgraceful lot. A whole waste of Golden Generation
