This is where I've constantly disagreed with Goodjoe. You can interrogate the work rate of players like Zidane, Maradona, Ronaldo el fenomeno, Socrates in comparison to today's generation but for their skill, football intelligence and technical ability is still miles ahead of this current bunch for me.

So they dropped Ebuehi for Collins? Ebuehi that Rohr went to beg, see how the same Rohr uselessed him. No wahala. |

TheGoodJoe:saying it was easy to run with the ball means defenders weren’t doing their jobs or am I missing something? I remember, Ikedia ran with the ball a lot. It was his introduction against Ireland that eventually gave us the equalizer at the U-20 WC in ‘99. 2 Likes 1 Share |

jihday:When I saw that it was ikedia he mentioned, I just let it slide. Wingers have the ability to do all that running with the ball. Players play within a football philosophy that de-emphasizes that kind of football as most of the coaches view such runs as time wasting This limits the players from making those kind of runs. Anthony of Ajax can do it Foden can do it Salah can so it (and does it) Leroy Sane can do it Denis Emmanuel can do it. Mbappe can do it 2 Likes |

PurpleHouse: Calm down..Bassey hasn't even played yet for us to assess if he can fit in... He was invited for just one window.. His exclusion is not bad...I believe Zaidu and Aina are enough to do the job.. And by the way, who would he dump us for? Italy or England? He will get his chances soon enough... 3 Likes |

Danielnino00: The purpose of the 40 man list is to enable a team to replace an injured player before they kick the ball. |

jihday: Ikedia actually started the Ireland game. He was a key player on the team. What I am saying is that defenders are more tactical and fit now than before. So it is more difficult to skip past players today than it was in the past. |
Re: "The Super Eagles Thread: The Road To AFCON 2023, 2025 And 2026 World Cup by PurpleHouse(m): 2:28pm On Dec 25, 2021 |
Danielnino00: This rubbish is why Eze has refused to play for us after hitting camp. You get a player like Bassey rising in leaps, and you're playing politics with him. Instead of including him in the team to study and perhaps get a chance. You are saying his time will come. This is why we always lose good players. Seal him first and let him have no other option. Then he can then wait for his time. As with women, get these guys while they're young. Is that too hard to understand. 4 Likes |

chrisooblog: You can not say the skill rate of the players of the past are miles ahead of the current set because they did not deal with the kind of intensity we are seeing in football today. Now almost all teams are serious with nutrition, fitness, tactics etc. It is more difficult now. So those guys could be sublime then but it will not be that easy today. 2 Likes |

PurpleHouse: Eze can go and sit down...Is Bassey better than Aina and Sanusi? I would easily include him ahead of Collins though.. But calm down.. He isn't an exceptional player we should loss sleep over... I repeat, Aina and Sanusi are enough for the role.... 3 Likes |

Danielnino00: Bassey now plays as a CB for Rnagers by the way. And he's very SOLID. That's Why i'm curious about his exclusion. And please don't mention Sanusi in my ears. I nor like nonsense. I'm just vexing here. Ebuehi is the best at that position. I love Aina and Awaziem, but you see that Slim light skin guy—he was trained for that role.. Why can't our coaches see this. Go see that friendly against Argentina and see how magnificent this guy is with the attack and defense. 1 Like |

PurpleHouse: So what role do u want Bassey to play in the SE? CB of LB? I like Ebueh a lot....But that Argentina game was 4 years ago..it's old news... Ebuehi hasn't really done enough this season to merit a recall if we are to be honest... This is Bassey's breakthrough season for Rangers..he need it.... Like I said, he should wait for his time...there's no need to rush... |
Re: "The Super Eagles Thread: The Road To AFCON 2023, 2025 And 2026 World Cup by PurpleHouse(m): 2:47pm On Dec 25, 2021 |
Danielnino00: In two or three years from now, Bassey will be massive and one of the best in Europe. Then Nigeria will be second choice. After this Afcon, I doubt if he would still be interested. If he is, I'll be happy. My prayer is we shouldn't lose him. That's my point. Concerning Ebuehi, do you watch Venezia matches ![]() 1 Like |

For Christ sake, Akpeyi have no business anymore in that team. Why waste the space? I think it is no longer safe for all these foreign borns to feature for us. Seems we are even wasting them than the other countries. Dessers should go figure himself out. I feel for him. With all his passion for Nigeria (Super Eagles), yet no value and appreciation. I really feel his pain. 5 Likes |
