Please for next time sake, leave out the abuses.

There are 10 people in camp

Iheanacho was the tenth person and he came in sometime around 4.

Akpeyi, Etebo and Musa are the other 3

fabyom:
I don't understand why Aribo, Bassey, Lookman and Dennis are not yet in camp when their club mates are. These guys need to be serious!

The midfield was already weak with the absence of a creative midfielder which Ndidi doubled as both a defensive midfielder and a creative midfielder in the last afcon,. Now Ndidi is out. Check out any cup wining team they need a creative midfielder, they need someone like Luka modric, the reason Spain won the world cup and euro back then was the midfield. They didn't have outstanding strikers but with xavi and iniesta in the centre it was hard for the opponents to gain meaningful possession. Eguavon should look for a creative midfielder, when we won the afcon in 2013 Mikel made more decisive passes than any other player in that afcon edition. He was the livewire spearheading the attackers with incisive passes. We need a player like that, The absence of a creative midfielder was why we couldn't equalise against Tunisia, and eguavon tried to bring in Iwobi to fill that gap but he should have had planned his team around a playmaker from the onset and now we still lack one

did he won the pk?

Do you know that Ghana is ranked as slight favourites to win the first leg of the playoffs. I looked at our defense line and all I could see is mediocrity. None of the defenders have played active football in the last 2months for their club sides except Calvin bassey (who would most likely would be benched), and Sanusi. Are players like abdullahi shehu, balogun, ekong, with unfit omeruoand match rusty etebo the most in-form footballers Nigeria can come up with? Now the only player close to world class in our squad Ndidi is out. I hope people won't be disappointed after the game

Copenhagen dazzler Akinkunmi Amoo has confirmed that he will jet off to join the Super Eagles at their training camp in Abuja on Monday.

The 2019 Fifa U17 World Cup star has earned a maiden call-up to the senior national team on the back of his excellent performances for Hammarby last season that saw him involved in 18 goals in 36 all-competition appearances for the Swedish club.

Amoo marked his full debut for FC Copenhagen in the best way imaginable by scoring the game-winning goal in a 1-0 win over FC Nordsjaelland in Parken on Sunday, tapping in from close range after a cheeky pass from Khouma Babacar.

The Sidos FC product was a player of interest to manager Augustine Eguavoen before the 2021 Africa Cup of Nations but could not be added to the roster for the tournament in Cameroon as a replacement for Odion Ighalo because CAF did not approve the request.

Amoo is delighted to be selected for the first time to play for the Super Eagles ahead of their upcoming 2022 World Cup qualifiers against Ghana.

"It's really big for me to be with the national team for the first time. I'll be leaving tomorrow and it's going to be really exciting for me," Amoo said to FC Copenhagen's official website.

"It's some incredibly important matches for the national team that are fighting to get to the World Cup finals, and I'm happy to be selected".

The 19-year-old Amoo has been in action for 63 minutes in competitive first team matches since the start of 2022.

coach eguavoen's pattern at the AFCON was an offensive style. And I'm sure that would be the same approach against Ghana.

Oshimen upfront, iheanacho behind him. Aribo at the CM role and onyeka at DM (4-4-2)

AndSunGorilla:

You have points sha, there is Ejaria, Onomah, Aneke and am sure many other Nigerian players in League 1, League 2 or even the Nationwide league who would astound all of us with their performance if rightfully invited. This thing isn't rocket science right? Sir K, am not so familiar with the EFL, league 1 and the other guys but please amplify by mentioning some of them please

komekn:


Don't you think there is a double standard here as well as nepotism and favouritism.

These leagues are rated close to 20 in Europe and they are not the most competitive of leagues by quality.

But people go up in arms when the mention of the Championship and much more English league one players are mentioned as potential SE players.

Amoo may indeed become the next Mbappe , but at the moment he has not justified a call up playing 60:+ minutes for Copenhagen. When there are far better players in better leagues and clubs .

The NFF give credence to unproven youth players defying all rational even before they have done anything. It's obvious that most are anchored on past relationships with NFF big Wigs.

Rockyrascal:
I am talking about is current form for his club. Are we inviting players now based on the club they play for? You talk low on a player who plays in Ligue 1

PurpleHouse:


Nacho should not start.

We need creativity behind Osimhen. Nacho can't provide that. He can come in second half. I know some people go get erection ontop my assertion and misunderstand it, but who cares?

Yes he actors once in a while, but truth is, Nacho will limit our creativity upfront and make our midfield Minus-one.

I mean I don't get it; doing the same thing over and over again means Eguavoen hasn't learnt his lesson from the last Afcon.

andrewbaba44:


He was before the long injury

samtol4:
Watching the clips of Amoo Akinwunmi it appears the guy is skillful and a very good passer of the ball.I hope the coach will know make right selection

komekn:


If you put Chukwueze in that low level league he will be like Mbappe and Messi.

So it's very difficult to say if he is true quality or he just seems good in that low level league.

He needs to go to a higher level before we can know for sure how good he is. He is being promoted to the university from primary school without it passing any exam IMO.
