If you were privy to general log standing organizational culture in the NFF when the Nigerian origin national team coach visits players, you wouldn't make that comment.

I am talking about the unspoken expectations. For instance, I know that when a Nigerian national team coach visited, the players paid his 5 star hotel bill and to make him comfortable he was entertained with female escorts (at his request) and to show appreciation the brown envelope was given.

So what Tosin is doing in broad daylight is really nothing, Eguavon is not even the head coach of the SE.
Eguavoen is the technical director, doesn’t matter if it’s a tradition or they’ve been doing it for the past 5biliion years it is a very terrible thing that shouldn’t be happening, if a coach or the NFF want to scout a player the player should never have to foot the bill

I really don't know which country you reside.

But a nations cultural norms and values are expressed in all of its institutions , the NFF is not exempt unfortunately Nigeria is ingrained in endemic institutionalised corruption.

As long as the Technical director is objective, if a player reaches out to him to go out of his usual schedule to interact, I think it is okay. I do not see Tosin Adarabioyo as one who would want an unmerited favor.

I think Eguavoen reached out to him and he is glad to support the coach to get a concrete view of things.

At the end, things are not working well in Nigeria and I think little support will help. What matters is the objectivity and discipline of the technical crew.

2022 Flashback: Samuel Chukwueze Among Top Dribblers in the European Top 5 Leagues throughout 2022.

He ranks 6th for the most take-ons completed across 2022 within all top 5 euro leagues only.

Only Saint-Maximin, Messi, Leao, Mbappe and Vinicius Jr recorded more completed take-ons than Chuks in 2022 within the Top 5 leagues.

In Elite Dribbling Company, he is. wink

In Elite Sharpshooters' company. Partly explains his goals form as the more shots he takes, the more chances are there that he would hit the target.

The Monster Machine carries this form into 2023. Expecting more fireworks. cool

Meanwhile... Mbappe tops this Class.

Tosin paid for his flight ticket also gifted him match day ticket, this is very very wrong it looks like he’s paying his way to the team (wouldn’t rule out giving him something small too)

The same Tosin who did shakara for Nigeria. So he badly needed international recognition? He didn't live his England dream again? What really did he see?

But to me I feel he will be a plus to the SE. He and Akpoguma can pair at centre back while Osayi and Bassey play at right & left fullback respectively.

Adarabioyo just gave Egu match day ticket(Fulham vs Crystal Palace)I do not think he paid for his flight ticket,accommodation or visa. Nigeria sport press should stop all these sensational headlines,not helping us.

I had great hopes for Awoniyi and my expectations seem to be too in high.

But I can see why he has struggled, unfortunately Awoniyi by EPL Standards is quite slow.

Awoniyi is actually playing well. Nottingham forest dies not create too many chances thats all. He was impressive against Chelsea. I don't see anything bad about his display. Abeg even better players will not score much in this kind of team

He gave a MOTM performance against Chelsea. He has Koulibaly in his pocket the entire game. I am particularly impressed with how he's been able to adapt to playing from the wings (though he excelled better playing through the middle in the second half)

Like someone earlier commented, even the best players will struggle in this Nottingham forest team. He would also have had a goal in this game where his teammate Johnson not selfish
