Taiye tawo left from the local league straight to a top European. In the last fifteen years, which NPFL product have made the similar moves.

Iheanacho awoniyi chukwueze osimhen ,Na another country develop these ones nah

We are approaching the best one we can get and so do other african countries .
Andrew... we're not.
When last did we have anything relating to U17 and U20 in Nigeria?
We need to invest the same energy we use in approaching these FBs to invest in our grassroot football too. Our HGs are the foundation of the team, any FBs that wanna play for us should make up his mind.
Look at how fast Plumptre's switch was....
The way Ekong stepped up to take the penalty..
Balogun going to Ghana's dressing room to congratulate them.
Those are the kind of FBs we want not those that are just playing for playing sake or just to boost their career.

I don dey talk this, no be today.
Our loss that day was all on the coach...
I mean Ighalo,Musa,Osimehn and Sadiq were all on the pitch at one time.
Even if I'm to blame somebody,it'll most likely be Bassey...all he had to do was getting to the byeline and whipping in crosses ...but I won't, because he may be playing to instruction of our tactical coach.
So it's not about that match

Ndidi will definitely make the English team.

No he will not.

With respect he is not better and or more consistent than Declan Rice, Kalvin Philips and Jude Bellingham to mention just a few.

I will not mention a possibly older Henderson at Liverpool FC.

Sometime ago You judge Ndidi by Leicester city poor form this season ,but you cant judge Leeds where Calvin Phillips plays by their poor form

Rice is not better than ndidi

I do not want to have a Kylian Mbappé who was born in Bordeaux in our national team but to have Kylian Mbappé who were born in our working-class neighborhoods in Cameroon. Because there are talents in our territories to be valued,” said the former Indomitable Lion, now president of the Cameroon Football Federation (Fecafoot).

Samuel Eto'o had warned, during his electoral campaign, to want highlight the training of young people in his country. He then explained: “Africans have a lot of talent, Europeans a little less. But the Europeans have understood something: training. Training is the magic of all success.” If the objective of the president of Fecafoot is to rely on a pool of footballers who would have been born in Africa, theComments, especially in the press and on social networks, are mixed regarding his release.

While we are here spreading the red carpet and licking the asses of our average dual nationals. Who see us as nothing but after thoughts or spare tires. Africa's greatest, Samuel Eto is giving them the middle finger. Preferring to get his hands dirty and raise footballers from the suburbs. That's how it should be.
I will swap Eto with Pinick in a heart beat.

You are miserably prejudiced and bigoted.

What amount of energy is invested in getting Nigerian origin players in Europe to play for the SE. Please tell us, you seem to know.

When Ghana wanted Hudson-Odio to play for them, the President gave him audience in addition the creme de la crème of the entertainment industry engaged with him, inviting him to multiple events including to
thier houses. Making him feel very welcome.

The best quality and consistent players are the foundation of any team. Not the place of birth.

The people looting, raping and destroying our nation where not born in Europe but in Nigeria. The only political appointee to resign from office from a completely false and CONTRIVED allegations in Nigeria was born in London. I am talking of the former minister of Finance.

The reality is we invest little or nothing in approaching Nigerian origin players. If anything NFF officials even ask some of them for inducement, I am taking from first hand information not hearsay.

England football clubs invest 100 of £millions in young players to create the next generation of world class footballers. What is Nigeria investing in❓

Commitment is not measured by your misguided subjectively biased units of measurement.

I gave you just four Midfielders Kalvin Philips, Declan, Jude and Henderson.

Jude is versatile and plays a multiple roles in midfield including the Defensive holding Midfielder role. He isn't pigeonholed into just one position a measure of his quality.

Ndidi will not currently make the England team.

You have made a wide general statement that all English midfielders are bang average. And if that's the case what are our Midfielder world class.

The Ministry of Youth and Sports and the NFF Executives met yesterday in Abuja.

Today, the NFF Executive Members will be meeting in Abuja.

A new coaching crew for the Super Eagles will be set up.

NFF has informed the Ministry that; They want to go for a foreign coach

The NFF are not interested in any member of the Class of 94 for now.

The NFF won't consider Sunday Oliseh as suggested by the Ministry.

However, the direction isn't clear yet.

Ministry - Class of 94.

NFF - Foreign coach as head with domestic coaches as assistants.

If anyone is prejudiced, that is you. You have failed completely to acknowledge we are never first choice with any of these dual nationals. Tammy, Olishe, Saka, Tomori, Danjuma name it. These guys have given us a bloody nose publicly when red carpets are being rolled out to welcome them... The cream of the top want nothing to do with the Super Eagles leaving us with dregs and rejects who wouldn't get a chance in their preferred country.

Eze claims he wants to focus on his club career when the Super Eagles come calling but the same Eze was highly devasted when injury ruled him out of Southgate's preliminary Euro list.
Please we have had enough of this bulshit.

Speaking of Eto's mindset, since you dine and wine with him, please show him this tweet so he can disprove it. You know his mindset. Mindset kee you there

Funny enough Andrew, the foreign born showed more commitment and passion. The likes of Aina, Ekong, Balogun played their hearts out.. They showed how passionate they are towards the team..

Wetin dey wound most of us here na selective criticism. No matter how badly their faves play, they turn a blind eye and try to put the blame on others. See how they defended Eguavoen after the AFCON knowing fully well he's tactically inept . Same peeps are coming out of their holes to call him dumb.
