His offside awareness was the worst I have seen in a game since I started watching football, including amateurs. Guy was 5 meters ahead of the last man in some cases and calling for the ball.

You see most homegrown Nigerian footballers are poorly coached. Our football system does not care about coaching and it is very important.
When they get to Europe it becomes obvious. You can't just survive on your raw talent alone. We need to declare a coaching emergency in Nigeria. Most Nigerian coaches probably don't teach their payers even the simple and basic things.

Aribo played like an elite KDB today. Two assists, he was behind every Rangers attack.

Bassey is head and shoulders above every CB we have. Pace, strength, awareness, positioning, good on the ball. He has everything needed.

I knew Osimhen's offside awareness was poor. I didn't know it was this poor.

After qualification, we really need to give bassey a chance at a friendly game because in the long run, I prefer him to even ekong and balogun. We just can’t use him in an all important game vs Ghana

bassey deserves to be in the super eagles team currently even as a cover for any of balogun,ekong or the left back position

Dude is a beast in the making and in no distant time will head to a much bigger league

I will prefer him to play as a left CB than a Lb. he is now competing with the likes of balogun, ekong, omeruo for a position

garcia is over hyped while Araujo is the real deal. Even United wants him with other big team

Meanwhile our own Calvin bassey is very good,linked with a move to the epl next season. Dude is once for the future and should be integrated to the current super eagles set up

Bassey needs to at least be on the bench .. he is not for the future he is for now and today..

If someone like you had seen Mes:si or c.ronaldo or Pele you'll have said his one for the future and their talent will go to waste..

Yes I agree but not against Ghana except injuries. We need certified proven and tested vs Ghana and there’s absolutely no case for experimentation

They’re all at backwater league sha. If we intend on winning a World Cup, we need our best players at the best league in the world playing week in and out. Koulibaly could be their mentor. What about akpoguma? He is playing at the bundesliga

koulibaly started from Belgium before moving to Napoli and became a household name in world football

There is still possibilities that those I mention may turn out to star in bigger leagues and clubs in Europe judging by the case that they re still young and emerging talents especially bassey and ozonwafor

Has nothing to do with homegrown players he has been playing in Europe for years and should already know this things unless they're not telling him since most Europeans don't know how to relate to Africans.

You don't have to abuse or be condescending to someone or a group of people just to make your point.

Yes, until then, we can only hope they become world class. The level of a player club is very important in measuring his capabilities as a player. For example, as bad as ekong is being criticized playing at the Epl, if you put him at the Scottish, psl or Belgium league, he would be one of the best players at those leagues. Let bassey come to a big 3 in order to access his ability

At the expense of who? Remember, a team can only invite 11, 23 or 28 man squad. Dessers, yes but the remaining absolutely No. let them perform at a better league before thinking of the super eagles. Super eagles is a place for the absolute best - No exceptions. We’re not here to do charitable invitation

baba Andre ayew is finished

Just before he left Swansea he turned down multiple offers in the EPL.

He was on near £90k a week in the Championship with Swansea after they got relegated from the EPL. He is now getting possibly an even bigger in payout in Quatar.

His quality has not dropped even if the league he is playing has.

so we have to wait for him to make the big leap to a bigger league before he will be considered good enough for the super eagles?

For your info he is already scouted by Westham and their is possibilities he will make the move in the summer with other epl teams interested. For his age and judging by where he joined rangers from (Leicester’s 2nd team) he has made a lot of progress already with more to come going forward

He has to play at a bigger league and be better in order to replace the players already at a bigger league. If you want to replace ekong or akpoguma at the big 5, sign for a big 5 team let’s access your performance
