Mané finished fourth for the 2019 Ballon d'Or, and in the award for the Best FIFA Men's Player he ranked fifth in 2019 and fourth in 2020.



This is the standard we want in the super eagles, not some average lord In Naples.

Looking forward to when one of our own would be in the top 10 Ballin D'or list.

One of the players they misjudged here ,very underrated ,after 1 game for the eagles peeps here started calling him flop ,some of them later blamed rohr after they saw they judged him wrongly ,some of them said he is old

Now if you ask those people who called him flop to mention current super eagles players who where good at their debut they won’t mention up to 10

Nwakaeme is the alejandro Gomez of naija football ,dude is pure class

Once you are 30 my brothers here won’t rate you ,but once you are at your early 20s you are the best thing after goat meat pepper soup ,those players on their early 20s now will surely reach their 30s one day .

Senegal have not won the nation's cup before with all their star players.
Akinkunmi amoo and some of our youngsters will get to that level in a couple of years. In fact Sadiq Umar and taiwo awoniyi are in for big transfers soon. This thing is about time and opportunity and the time for our players will come.
Big club issue is overrated. It's just time and opportunity.
In fact Samson tijani might get there. Red bull produces world class players.
And so what about all that.
Senegal can't even win Olympics or a junior tournament.
They are overrated abeg

2 Reasons Why Nigeria May Be The First African Team To Win The World Cup Competition Next Year

opera.com
The desire and prayer of every team are to win the World Cup which is regarded as one of the biggest football competitions in history. In recent years, we have seen top European teams win the World Cup completion, but an African country is yet to win the World Cup.



The World Cup has mostly been donated by European countries and South American countries. Examples of some of these European and South American countries include Brazil, Germany, Italy, Argentina, and others.



Next year, the World Cup competition would return to our screens as top countries from different parts of the world would be hoping to win the completion. Among these countries, one African Country that may likely win the World Cup is the Nigeria national team.



The Nigerian national team may likely emerge as the first team to win the World Cup competition next year due to 2 reasons. Check out the 2 reasons below.

1) Front-Line Attackers



The first reason why Nigeria may be the first African team to win the World Cup competition is due to their front-line attackers.

The World Cup competition which would begin next year would feature one of the best attack-line which comprises Iheanacho, Victor Osimhen, and Paul Onuachu. All 3 players are currently among the best strikers in Europe as they are doing very well for their team.



The combination of Iheanacho's shot power, Victor Osimhen's burst-up play, and the strength of Paul Onuachu may likely cause problems for their opposition which would be a boost to the team.



2) Defensive Strength



The second reason why Nigeria may be the first African team to win the World Cup is due to their defensive strength. Nigeria has a very strong defense as the defenders are currently doing well.

The solidity of the defense is also a result of the presence of one of the best defensive midfielders in Wilfred Ndidi. Overall, the defensive strength of Nigeria may likely be key to Nigeria winning the World Cup competition next year.

Thanks for your input. I had already came to the same conclusion somewhat.

ChrisKels:


You are wrong, though one can never rule out that he learnt a thing or two from him which is rightly so, as his predecessor but Osimhen has always been this physical and mobile. I can recall his games for our youth sides even when he was neither a super eagle nor was ighalo an integral member of our squad. I remember the rescue mission against Lybia at the U23s, I still remember vividly his one on one physical battle with hard tackling Mali’s Abdul Karim Dante(adjudged the most physical player of the 2015 World Cup). Despite osimhen’s thin frame, he owned Dante in that final and came out with a goal and some great efforts that ended up on target. That final alone made me make up my mind on the boy.
Re: "The Super Eagles Thread: The Road To AFCON 2025 And 2026 World Cup by Joebie: 3:22am On Oct 30, 2021
So you mean we should respect their wishes just because we have enough strikers who are scoring goals left and right for Nigeria? You just made my earlier post valid. The issue now is not about respecting their wishes. Club football does not IMMEDIATELY translate to national football. Remove Osimhen, you have Onuachu who took him matches and matches to add to his tally of goals for SE. Over two legs in the next WC qualifying round who can you count on if Osimhen does not provide goals? Read my earlier submission again.

AndSunGorilla:

Vicmo and Ighalo retired voluntarily, let's respect their wishes. Had it been we were misfiring and suffer a dearth of attackers like we have for midfielders then we can have that conversation. However at this point for attackers, the problem is even which to field out of the array of talents at our disposal.

Rohr is simply unintelligent and confused. Our best wingers are Samuel Kalu, Anthony Nwakaeme, Samuel Chukwueze, Emmanuel Dennis,
Ejuke but he want to stick with Ahmed Musa and Moses Simon. the two of them will play badly and Rohr will claim he lacks good players.
Our so called problem with bad wingers is a product of his immagination and stupidity.

Then the issue of rating a player by his league has serious limitations.
Someone like nwakaeme is better than many wingers we have.
At the end of the day, he might be a better player for Nigeria than moses simon.
Even players like Adegbenro, Amoo etc might be better than some top 5 league players.
playing in a top 5 league is a question of opportunity and not necessarily been better.
Yekini was one of the best strikers for nigeria and in Africa while playing in the portuguese second division.
ROHR BADLY NEEDS HELp

I have spoken, your comments and bible abi textbook wey I go dey study. You have made your point while I have made mine. Do u recall how long it took Ighalo to start scoring for us? I heard Onazi is still active, I bet his experience and leadership is also required for our young midfielders.

Gueye is world class. You have to be, really, to be a starter in the current PSG team with players like Wijnaldum on the bench.

In attack they have Mane. The guy didn’t say positions, he said departments. Mane is clearly world class in attack.

Gueye is not world class, so benching Wijnaldum is the criteria for being world class?
