charlesemeka85:
has he been offered a chance to fight for shirt?

Pidginwhisper:
We thought we had one in Musa Mohammed , the captain of 2015 U-17 set till the guy fizzled out.Emmanuel is promising though. Make we wait and see.

AndSunGorilla:

Bet how did the Addo guy get his own job with Dortmund? It's hard for black players already not to talk of black africans. Besides Tigana and Vieira, I haven't seen too many black coaches at the top tier. We can't be that dumb now.

Danielnino00:
NM

That Addo guy was born in Germany though..

No doubt, blacks aren't being given enough opportunities at the top level of football administration..
Look at England...so many black players there,but very few black coaches and literally no black referee in the top division...

yinkeys:

Musa Mohammed was 2013
That guy wasn’t good with free kicks
You shouldn’t mention his name where this Micheal is.
This guy is an amazing dead ball expert

Joebie:
I hope as he grows every area of his game will develop as well. Over 50% of U17 players usually go into oblivion. I am hoping he will be among those that make it.

codemaniacs:


Because they're allowed to go into Oblivion.

Pedri, gavi , Bellingham e.t.c all made their national team debuts before they reached 19 years old.

Odunayow:
So we give debuts to anyone who shows flashes at U17 level?

codemaniacs:


Yes..

JayromWrites:
And Ghana lost to Burkina Faso

Both side played kick and run football

Odunayow:
You can be giving them on Fifa 22

AndSunGorilla:

I agree with it you sir, not all the U17s from England, Spain, France make it big into professional senior football. That's life, can you imagine that US Ghanaian kid back then, Fred Adu who flattered to deceive.

JayromWrites:

Odunayow:
Exceptional talents make the senior national team NOT senior national team make exceptional talents

Whenever any player enter, e enter be that. Case in point, Roger Milla

Congratulations to the Golden Eaglets. At least we have a crop of yougsters to follow their development.

That WAFU B U17 Competition is the toughest those boys can play cos the tournament is tougher than the group stages of the AFCON U17 and FIFA U17.

Thank God that CAF has developed sense by increasing the AFCON U17 to 12 teams and so two more slots were given to West Africa.

How more difficult can it be to battle for tickets against Ghana, Ivory Coast and Burkina Faso at U17 level. I still see this as injustice because Nigeria along side those three nations are typically good enough to fly Africa's flag at the FIFA U17 WC with even two of these teams playing in the semis and Final.

In 1985: it was Nigeria and Guinea playing each other in the semis.

1987: Nigeria and Ivory Coast got to the semis while Nigeria played in the final

1993: Nigeria and Ghana played the final

2001: Nigeria and Burkina Faso played against each other in the Semis

2007: Nigeria and Ghana in the Semis and Nigeria played in the final

2015: Nigeria and Mali played the final.

West Africa is no doubt the Power house of U17 football as the Cup has come our way a total of 7 times (Nigeria: 5 and Ghana: 2) yet those clowns in CAF are restricting us with this their useless WAFU A, WAFU B Zoning formula.

Once again congratulations to the boys because they have done well for their future not just for Nigeria. Meanwhile I still dey wait to see who go call these kids over aged.

Good evening house. I know it's been a while I posted here. Na activities here and there plus that useless WCQ heartbreak. I still dey vex

elunico:


Good morning!

So, how many teams in total would qualify from Africa to the WC.

I think he was intimidated, Mikel won champions league, two EPL, four FA Cup, Europa league, Afcon winner and the same Oliseh was unable to break into Juventus and Dortmund team but loaned out to Reginana and Bochum though he had good time with Ajax that cannot be compared with Kanu and Finidi Ajax..If Oliseh believe Ndidi is better then Muda Lawal is ahead of Oliseh when we talk of real DM.

Mujtahida:

Oliseh intimidated by Mikel? Habaaa. Oliseh in his early 20s played against Maradona, Baggio, Maldini. He was in top flight football rubbing shoulders with European footballing elites of his generation. Na Mikel him go come envy?

zuchyblink:
and Mikel was washing plates in Europe in his 20s?
