On average a 21-year-old should be able to survive the MRI(Guess). All we need to do is present players 21 and below. cheesy grin. We were previously presenting men who were in their late 20s. They were all at least 25. We'll eventually get to 17. Slow and steady. cheesy
Stop spreading lies.
Post 2009 u17 tournaments Nigeria has been presenting players with accurate age
Taiwo Awoniyi, iheanacho, Ndidi, Osimhen, chukwueze all using true details
Just look at their faces then and how theyve matured now
Some players who are truly u17 also fail the test.
It’s not 100% accurate

Continue deceiving yourself. That is true on average. Only a minority of actual 17-year-olds would fail the test if it's properly calibrated. Besides by previously, i meant pre-2013. In the last 2 tournaments or so we've been more truthful, thanks in part to the MRI system. And no it's not still accurate. Remember accuracy means they were all under 17. I guarantee you the majority of them were 20 and above cheesy grin.

I will reply you later. But what you are posting here is far from the truth. MRI is highly accurate. The failure comes from young players failing but not old players passing. That is why it is universally accepted.

Keep in mind, it is highly accurate for screening out old players. Just that some young players get caught in that net.

I knew you would come in. We had this conversation a while ago. grin. Besides why you no go listen first? By accuracy I wasn't even referring to the MRI, I was addressing his point that all our players present correct ages(even the recent ones). I hope you are not trying to be academic about this, but if you are, can you tell us how accurate the system it is? As in, what are the chances a 19-year-old might pass the MRI? What's the uncertainty? Besides some studies indicate maturities differ across races in accordance with TW2 standards. What's the degree of uncertainty? Please present sources too. This article is in good faith. cheesy grin

Strikers aren't really our problem.. We have enough of them, and there's definitely a pecking order based on their form at their respective clubs.. If you bring in Folarin now with our current midfield set up,he will struggle..
We need to fix that midfield and defence

Football World lost Gianluca Vialli@58 years old to pancreatic cancer .... I remember Vialli of Sampdoria against Keshi of Anderlecht in UEFA winners Cup final 1990,Vialli scored a brace to defeat Anderlecht and denied Keshi the record of being the first Nigerian to win European Cup.

Owngoal say Adarabioyo will be part of Eagles squad in March. If that is true, then, our recruitment team is getting it right so far. Dude is so confident on the ball. They should also try luring Uduokhai once again, Torunarigha's case should also be reviewed. I'm dead tired of Ekong, Omeruo and Awaziem.

I suggested that those you mentioned should be revisited again but many here tagged them below average and not different from what we have currently

If we can get adarabioyo,uduokhai,Caleb okoli added to bassey and akpoguma then our cb positions is covered with decent quality

Also the nff should reach out to celtic’s Moritz Jenz as well

I don't think we stand any chance with Okoli, but if we could get him, I would be really happy. I don't rate Moritz Jenz, he is just another Ekong, and I can tell you for free that he is wasting his time waiting for Germany when the likes of Bella Kotchap haven't gotten good opportunities. I would rather give Igho Ogbu a chance especially as he is inches away from joining Slavia Praha.

Omeruo has done his best in SE.. Ekong has been NO to me but till now am still wandering why Awaziem a good ball playing defender failed to nail it in Europe,that Porto moved was wrong.

Oga Charles,Bassey should continue his LB/LWB role with eagles,watching him in champions league,not really secured as CB but with him and Sanusi we are good to go in LB position.

don’t blame it on porto, he had options when he went on loan to Nantes and leganes but didn’t do enough to warrant those teams to sign him permanently from the portuguese giants

Porto even had to cut him lose by selling to boavista where he also didn’t do wel before been shipped off to Croatia on loan

Is it not the same porto sanusi joined from a less fancied team in the same league and in few months displaced their starting Brazilian left back?

It’s high time we face fact with regards to certain players rather than make excuses for them

he is young and will grow in that position with time. The likes of alaba and Hernandez succeeded in that position and today are among the best in europe in then LCB

Bassey is an asset to us because he can cover 2 positions in the team which are the LB and LCB

wow, Ogbu is joining Sparta Prague? That team use to be the best team in Czech abi Croatia years back. Steady performers in the ucl then. That will be a good move for him and will bring him to the notice of the super eagles handlers

Like you said it will be very difficult for us to snatch okoli from Italy unless he push for it. He is highly rated in Italian football circles and tipped to be in the Azzuris team in no distant time. Also from he’s mother’s insinuation from what I read online late last year it seem the parents are against him playing for us

not at all. He was decent and average at best. If he was outstanding in Spain and France atleast other clubs in those leagues would hv paid what porto was asking for or retained him in the team

Mk una stop to dey make excuses. If awaziem is as good as hyped here he won’t be rotting away in the Croatian league at his age

He wasn’t signed by Nantes and leganes because he didn’t do enough earn a permanent deal

Ok why didn’t porto atleast keep him as a squad player instead of shipping him off to turkey and later selling permanently to boavista?
