Would have been hard for Olisadebe to break into the team then sha. We already had a packed forward line that included Kanu, Agali, Aghahowa and Yakubu. Soon after Osaze and Martins also joined the group so egbon it's just as well Emma opted for Canada the same scenario currently playing out with Ugbo who has chosen Canada.

Kog45:
Emma Olisadebe got his polish citizenship with Polish government involvement.

Emma was a player Nigeria missed...I asked him as a friend why?Emma said he will never get the chance to play for Nigeria cos he has seen talents that Nigeria never gave enough chances to show case their talents.....He don't see any reason why highly talented Sunday Johnson who was better should always be on the bench for Pius Ikedia during Sydney 2000......He cited James Obiorah case and really surprised that highly talented James couldn't get enough opportunities and when he does it was cleared he was not wanted.

Emma was a pure class,the first university student I saw and I told him straight that what are you doing in the school with this crazy talent....he was selected for world university games as a street footballer alongside Seyi Olofinjana(Lautech)James Jigbale(OAU) and NPFL highest goal scorer Edith Agoye(UI)but was rated than Edith Agoye during world university games.

After World University games,coach Fanny Amu who led the team to world university game told him pointblank that he must sign for a club in Nigeria,he moved to Jasper United and shake Nigeria league,then proceeded to Poland to sign a professional contract with polonia Warsaw.He was the first black player to play for Poland national team and represented polish team in 2002 WC.

He has 4 goals and 2 assists in 13 matches no dey put it in bold like he has done anything special, Musa has 63 goals and 33 assists in 184 matches for Cska and Ejuke has a long way to go before he gets there

The present ejuke is clearly much better than present musa. But, prime musa vs ejuke is a conversation for another day

Gbam Vardy that has been tearing up the goal scorers chart in England nobody is begging for him. His replacement Tammy is no where near Vardy's level at the moment but he was still invited. But here in Nigeria we are already panicking quickly recalling Odion just because we are facing Liberia and Cape Verde instead of giving guys like Awoniyi, Sadiq and so many others to make a mark in the SE.

Danielnino00:



You dey mind that guy... He is so desperate to convince people that Rohr is doing the right thing...

Imagine,after his talk about England regretting taking rookies like Saka to the Euros, those rookies are still in the team... Old man Vardy who is England best striker after Kane hasn't been recalled for any reason...Rather,it's another rookie,Tammy Abraham that's being called up...

So u guys want NFF to tamper with the team list , when they start tampering with it u guys will start shouting again
do4luv14:




I beg to differ with you a little sir,

and I think Pinnickhad been fingered enough here,

the blame should laid on Rohr and the Technical department of Nff, who are vested with vetting and approving list for matches,

what had they been doing, or better still why approves list after list that's filled with defenders, thin on midfielders, why?

To be Frank, Eagles don't really need the service of Ighalo. Being top Scorer in Saudi League means nothing, coz we are not lacking in his Position.

We've got top Lads doing fine for their respective Clubs in Europe. Osimhen is there. Dennis is there. Onuachu and Awoniyi are there as well.

If at all we need an Oldie in the Rank, I would rather go for Mikel. We don't need VicMo as well, coz we've got loads of Talents on the Wings.

What Eagles are lacking now is a top 10 and a solid central Midfielder. Ejuke is a Playmaker but not a 10. Iwobi is also a Playmaker, but can play as a makeshift 10 cos he has the Skills. Aribo is a makeshift central Midfielder. Apparently we are lacking right personnel in the midfield.

Nwakali might not be doing fine at Club level, doesn't mean he won't do fine with National Team. He's only Midfield Playmaker I can point at. I wish he can be given a chance to prove himself in GWG. Alhassan deserves a Look as well.

We should stop mistaking Playmaker as No. 10. Being a good Dribbler doesn't mean you can play in the hole. What makes you excel as a No. 10 is vision to spot opportunities in the final third and making decisive passes.

Ndidi doesn't need Afcon or WC to move to a better club...he should just keep it going in EPL,with good management he has everything to be there...check Dennis moved to Watford,pure agent work.

I heard that Ndidi is being manage by a new management team.

He doesn't need it, you say. But he cannot control clubs coming for him after a great Performance in these two tourneys. That's the trigger i meant.

Yes you are right but as at then he has everything thing to slug it out with Kanu and Aghaowa as at 2000-2002.

Remeber he represented Poland in 2002 WC and was instrumental to their WC qualification with 8 goals and a goal at world cup,nominated for 2001 world footballer of the year.

Sir,YakubuAiyegbeni,Osaze and Martins are not even in contention.Emma Olisadebe was a rare talent,a university boy from no where,playing street football and a year plus in NPFL,what a very remarkable achievement.

He made that polish decision cos he knew he will never get the chance but unfortunately for him his university coach who discovered him prior to world university games was later made super eagles assistant coach as goalkepper trainer to 2002 WC,the man that discovered Vincent Enyeama,Austin Ejide and after 2002 world cup discovered Seyi Olofinjana and Dele Aiyenugba.

Emma na baller my man.

Guy no think that way, if I remember well, anytime Rohr grant an interview, he always mention Ighalo, if that one no tell you something

then honestly tell me what was shehu and musa still doing in SE, it had been the coach desire to recall Ighalo from day 1, Pinnick got nothing to do with it,


instead you should be asking, what had the technical department of the Nff been doing, approving such lists, and why, it's there you will know who pocket what



As for bubu I don't support him from day 1,
don't even vote for him, so sorry bro, you got it wrong

That old man Rohr and the technical department is the problem of the super eagles

He does not even know that the super eagles is suffering dearth of creativity from the midfield

then they point out his short comings, and asked him to rectify such, but they don't,

Thegoodjoe what do you think grin

I always thought Xavi will make a fantastic manager but he reality on ground is that the tiki take formula is now out in the open and many coaches have learnt how to apply it efficiently.

The only thing I think will give Xavi an edge to propel Barca is if he sticks to relying on a high possession formula, higher than what we regularly see.

He will do well but not as easy as if the formula was not in the open.
