They don't want to accept the truth.. when the next super eagles list comes out, we will have a lean midfield and people will complain...
I dunno if it's the segunda division that Nwakali plays for that's the problem cus we have had players from the German 4th division, the Turkish 2nd division, Bulgaria, the Israeli league, Saudi and Chinese leagues in the super eagles in the last 5 years..

omo, that lloris ehn, I don’t even know. His physique anytime I look at him, he looks so small and skinny or na tiny I go call am but the guy can fly no doubt. He is usually not ranked in any top whatever in goalkeeping rankings, yet he had such a long career as France keeper. Over 140 Apps. That’s staggering mehn. I like what I’ve seen in maignan tho, mandanda is always on the bench, don’t see him much.
i don't rate iloris as a top keeper, always flying around without making a top save.

Funny talk.

See what you mean: team go gather dey play for one wing, kpa, kpa kpa dey tiki taka, den suddenly dem switch go the other side, kpa kpa kpa to create overload and make the opposition lose shape

No wonder tiki taka is boring.

You added nothing here.


Don't believe what people say. Barca didn't do tiki-taka! It's completely made up! Don't believe a word of it! In all team sports, the secret is to overload one side of the pitch so that the opponent must tilt its own defence to cope. You overload on one side and draw them in so that they leave the other side weak....Pep Guardiola.

This was said by Pep Guardiola in 2014. In 2023, you're trying to tag it funny.

The fact is that a lot of you guys never studied this thing.

I'm indifferent about this Nwakali issue but I want to address the most compelling issue most of his critics have on here that is, he plays in la Liga 2.

First, we've had players from La liga 2 play for the national team without anybody complaining or calling to question the quality of such players. Examples are Sadiq Umar and Omeruo. And if we go a little back, we have Mutiu Adepoju.

Second, Accessing Nwakali solely on the point that he plays for a poor la liga 2 team can be a little bit misleading. What if the same Nwakali plays for a 'top' team that is not currently better than the team or league he plays in? Are we going to accept him?

I'm saying if Nwakali plays for teams like ASEC mimosas, Remo stars, chips United or in the Israeli league and makes the national team, will we still be complaining? These are teams that obviously are not better than la liga 2 teams.

Third, life happens.
The fact that he still plays in la liga 2 and no top club is coming for him does not necessarily mean he is a poor player. He might just not have the luck to be visible to top club.

Mitrovic is a proven premier league quality striker for example, but how many times has he followed Fulham to the championship without a premier league team or any top club demanding his services?

This is life..

Finally, Nwakali has never had a bad game for the NT.

I stand to be corrected on this one sha, but I don't think I've even seen a poor performance from Nwakali for the National team (U17, U 23, super eagles). From the Athletico Madrid game to the last AFCON, he has always put a very decent shift for the super eagles.




Thank you.

Update: Isaac Aondoakaa, The 14-Year-Old Golden Eaglet That Will Fly In Peru🇳🇬🦅

Isaac is a 14-year-old prospective Golden Eaglets player; he was at the national team's training camp before they vacated for the election break.

The teenager midfielder is a JSS3 student of Davidhall College Obalende, Lagos State.

He was discovered by a football scout after impressing during a school competition; he's enrolled and is being developed to reach his full potentials at the Kakawa Academy Epe.

His friends will always confess to neighbours that Isaac like Nwankwo Kanu, will one day make Nigeria very proud.

Big Congratulations to the kid going forward.

Update: You need a godfather to play in Eagles - Ex Footballer Throws Bomb🇳🇬🙆

A Former Flying Eagles defender, Kennedy Chinwo has opened a can of worms after he revealed that having footballing talent is not enough for a player to play in the Super Eagles of Nigeria.

He argued that any such player without having a strong godfather is going nowhere.

The world cup Silver 🏅 medalist made this revelation in an interview with Brila FM.

“It is the dream of every player to play for the Super Eagles. However, playing in the senior national team won’t just come easy. You need a godfather to play in the Eagles. But if you don’t have, no matter your talent, you won’t be able to play.

“A few of the players who I feel should have been in the Super Eagles despite their talent were not given a chance to play in the team.”

NB: Chinwo was part of the Samson Siasia-led Flying Eagles that lost at the finals of the FIFA U-20 World Cup to Argentina in 2005 in Netherlands.

Nigerians has since been reacting to the assertions of the former footballer.

First of all Fulham were never going to let him go.

When at Fulham Mitrovic is was on well over £100k a week. Last season he had the highest goal tally in the history of the Championship.

He is currently number 5 in the EPL goal scorer chart. Just behind Ivan Toney, Rashford, Kane and Haaland.

Mitrovic was Fulham main player to get promotion they would NEVER sell him.

Fulham felt Anguissa was not up to standard and sold him to Napoli.

So your comments are far from accurate.

You should have known by now the man Komekn. I am not trying to belittle anyone, Komekn knows very little about the tactics of football, This is very true. There was a time he called Ademola Lookman a traditional winger. It may be that he has heard about the traditional winger role, and then decided to mix up Ademola Lookman with the traditional winger role. This and many more made me realise the man that Komekn is.

Komekn should do more of learning than talking.

I will make my point clear about Mourinho and my point has not changed.

When Mourinho goes against a tough opponent, he adopts a negative setup. When Mourinho leads a tough opponent, he resorts to negative methods to win.

I do not see that as tactical superiority. I will always embrace those that work towards possessive/offensive dominance over a coach that thinks of methods to trick his way to win.

With that, I rate the likes of Guardiola, Xavi, Arteta, Ten Hag, Tuchel, Enrique, and a host of others over Mourinho.

When I was saying this earlier, it looked l was just talking. Until, Simeone Inzaghi beat Mourinho like thief repeatedly. People would have rated Mourinho ahead of Simeone Inzaghi because of his past trophies and laurels. However, he has been spanked bitterly repeatedly by Inzaghi that I don't think anyone will rate him ahead of Inzaghi.

Get my point?
Every coach get that coach wey dey beat am repeatedly. Look at Klopp and Ancellotti.

The point is simple. Nwakali is cast as a messiah of sorts. When Sadiq was in segunda, he was talked about as a prospect who should be invited. Nobody made it look like if he's not invited then we amount to little upfront.

But Nwakali was so hyped here. And then the pushback was what brought the narrative as to if he's that good, why is he in the segunda.

It was the moderating influence of that push back that made his fans to temper their emphasis by saying he can contribute to our midfield because of so and so quality. If not na flaming hype before.

I've always advocated for him to be invited. If he comes and adds to our team, is that not a good thing?

I won't take the hyping too serious.. Nwakali isn't the first player that Thegoodjoe and Thesupernerd particularly have hyped well here.. It even appear more like encouragement than hyping... Players like Iheanacho and Osimhen were in such position when they were going through a rough phase in their careers.. Myabe because Nwakali own is taking too long that's why people find the hype annoying. But I can assure you, it's not just on this thread... I remember vividly after that Atletico Madrid game, so many fans on social media were clamoring for Nwakali to be in the world cup squad based on that performance.. Even when his name appeared in the AFCON list, there was jubilation in some quarters... Undoubtedly,many people remember how good he was back then ..

I agree, he hasn't hit the heights expected of him, but as far as the super eagles is concerned, especially the midfield, we need all hands on deck...if he was a striker, nobody would care because we have an abundance of strikers now... Maybe if we can land Eze or Oliseh this year, the talks of Nwakali getting called up will die down... Until then, let's not pretend that our midfield needs reinforcement and a player like Nwakali could be of help ..

When we were badly in need of a goalkeeper,Rohr went to the Spanish third division to fetch Uzoho...he also got Okoye from the German 4th division.. Jamilu Collins came to provide reinforcement at left back from the German second division too...

Yes Rohr went to 4th and 3rd division but what is the state of our goalkeeping department today?We are over flagging Nwakili issue here....only Nwakili can prove himself not our talks and for now only a preference from Peseiro can give Nwakili invitation.

Osimehn and Iheanacho case are quite different from Nwakili....Osimehn moves from Wolfsburg to lowly Belgium league and shake things up.Iheanacho is a top player who started with man city and still doing it with Leicester,given the opportunity he always delivers....Almost faded Isaac Success is doing it right now with Udinese...Awoniyi who a lot don’t rate is now in EPL but big question has Nwakili help himself career wise to justify his inclusion in national team?NO,so left for him to prove fans wrong.

Despite Sadiq performance in Segunda,he got his chance in Afcon due to injury to Osimehn and ighalo but Eguavoen did well for Nwakili with wild card invitation,hopefully Peseiro can have the same sentiment and gives Nwakili a chance.

Ndidi..EPL
Iwobi...EPL
Aribo...EPL
Bonnke..Ligue 1
Onyedika...Belgium div 1
Alhassan...Belgium div 1
Etebo....Greek div 1

No coach would have these pool of midfielders and go to Segunda league and pick a player playing for Ponferaddina sitting in relegation zone,reasons I always saying the club is not a good platform for Nwakili to excel.

Out of all the midfielders you listed, only Iwobi is a proper midfield conductor.. I don't know much about Alhassan because Peseiro has refused to hand him an invitation for reasons best known to him or the NFF. Aribo is a decent player but isn't the type you can bank on to dictate play from deep... Honestly,if we are to call up additional midfielders now, Nwakali won't be my first choice..Eze or Oliseh will be...because they are the type of midfielders we need...

Osimehn and Iheanacho case are quite different from Nwakili....Osimehn moves from Wolfsburg to lowly Belgium league and shake things up.Iheanacho is a top player who started with man city and still doing it with Leicester,given the opportunity he always delivers....Almost faded Isaac Success is doing it right now with Udinese...Awoniyi who a lot don’t rate is now in EPL but big question has Nwakili help himself career wise to justify his inclusion in national team?NO,so left for him to prove fans wrong.

Despite Sadiq performance in Segunda,he got his chance in Afcon due to injury to Osimehn and ighalo but Eguavoen did well for Nwakili with wild card invitation,hopefully Peseiro can have the same sentiment and gives Nwakili a chance.

Ndidi..EPL
Iwobi...EPL
Aribo...EPL
Bonnke..Ligue 1
Onyedika...Belgium div 1
Alhassan...Belgium div 1
Etebo....Greek div 1

No coach would have these pool of midfielders and go to Segunda league and pick a player playing for Ponferaddina sitting in relegation zone,reasons I always saying the club is not a good platform for Nwakili to excel.

Sir as always you say it as it is. They will brand you a hater soon. It is left for JP to use what we have to bring out the best in our attackers. Respect.🙏🏿

What did Okoye and Jamilu Collins do to justify their inclusions?

This is not about proving himself but a fix to a challenging situation that has worried us for years.

Our midfield has been poor despite. So what do you propose that we should do to fix that gap.
