So, what legitimate reason do they have to refuse Dennis arrival at Afcon?

dkay51:


Not everytime blame NFF, if CAF didnt complain that we sent in our list late, why would any club make that complaint and no other club complained o. What's so special about Watford?

Striker's well outstanding ones are always on the move, because there is an incessant demand for strikers across all leagues.

Why then has he remained in the Segunda Division for two seasons.

Omo no time for punishment. We must select Dennis and osimehn in our final round of WCQ.

Danielnino00:


If it is true, the NFF won't win.. Watford will present good evidence against them... To them, they didn't get the official invitation at the time stipulated by FIFA, so they have every right to hold on to the player...

Yes, enough is enough. If we’re going to hire foreign coaches because of lack of competence, foreign administrators has to also be employed.. how can someone possibly forget the deadline to send player invitation?? So, they sent ekong name on time while not sending Dennis name?

seankafor:
does the nff has the balls to push this notion?

Philosopher1979:


Watford has no right to keep him.
Instead of fighting for Emmanuel dennis pinnick was fighting for Osimhen.
We can still get Dennis if we press home our issue.
Dennis himself should insist on going.
Nff should not allow themselves to be taken for granted

dkay51:
Like they're saying we sent an email late, what of they new invitees are their clubs not being informed just now, please NFF has no fault for this, if other clubs can release their players that are just being invited why should we informing watford weeks ahead?

Joebie:
Na only that player I dey complain about. There is CLEARLY no merit in him named to this team. Good riddance.

komekn:


Nigerian origin player's sourced and or developed from our local leagues, understand " How things are Done"

That , "how things are done" starts from the youth teams, and the various god father's that dictate matters .

I am yet to find a Nigerian local coach that has no conflicting personal interests and or not involved in very questionable decisions.

Rohr has gone, it's now business as usual.

Odunayaw:
Cheers to hoping this is the last callup

Subzero047:


Is there even a thing as deadline for clubs in Afcon invitations? I think Watford are fighting with their last breath for Emmanuel Dennis but if NFF let's this slide it sets a dangerous precedent for clubs disrespecting Afcon in the future, I think NFF is already covered by Fifa, if for any reason you stop your player from going to Afcon, that player does not play for you during the tournament

Odunayaw:
Cheers to hoping this is the last callup

Thanks for your civil response

Bless u

TheGoodJoe:


They have the right to hold the player but what happens to courtesy. This is a low one from Ranieri. Disappointed in him. Other clubs likely received their letter late but they are releasing the players.

12large1:

There are rules and regulations in every form of life. If you fail to obey simple rules that you were aware of, from the on set, it’s on you shawdy

Danielnino00:


Of course, there's a deadline attached to this kind of thing... But the fact that Ekong isn't having any issue with his own call up shows something funny is up..
The real question now is whether the NFF are willing to go all out to punish Watford...I doubt they will do that....

Triniti:
Hahahahaha, nobody here likes dude, belle go just dey sweet all man, please Joebie, don’t do that thing you did during the 2018 World Cup.

seankafor:
ranieri is a fool and will get Watford relegated..
How come he didn't resist troost ekong but resisited Dennis from joining us? Abi Dem send them different mails?

I hope the nff punishes whoever thinks he is bigger than eagles by snubbing them in subsequent events

lovewins:
Updated Eagles list

Dennis, Osimhen, Shehu, Balogun Out

Olayinka, Onyekuru, Ebuehi, Ajayi in

dkay51:


So why does the rule not apply to the other clubs that were also sent emails, lets not even go far, why does the rule not apply to his teammate Ekong?

TheGoodJoe:


No need calling Ranieri a fool. He wants to hold his price asset and Dessers looks likely the one to save them from relegation. No need to punish Dessers too. It is not his fault. He wanted to come but Ranieri has resisted.

Seems Italians are highly disrespectful in nature. We had this problem with Conte regarding Mikel and Victor Moses. Now Ranieri is doing the same. Wish Dessers the best. We will surely miss him but will keep supporting him as he fights for Watford.

Joebie:
This guy you dey work for own goal?
How u take copy and paste as OGN block that capability?

forgiveness:


Dennis you mean!?
