Nigerians are never satisfied with any list. Some of the players are invited as training materials and won't kick a ball during the 2 matches The shout for LFB as if 442/433 are the only formation in football shows we only want a predictable team. Inclusion of indigenous players ought to be a welcomed development but we complain too much. 1 Like |

Marjoribanks:It’s going to be played on African turf so I don’t mind I just hope Sodiq is quick enough with regards to defending, the guy is not tall and he is not 20 years old He is good offensively though No matter the hardship he might have been through that dude doesn’t look 20 years old Don’t know who the natural left back is though Nothing wrong in giving home based boys opportunities. They play a lot more on African turf and weather conditions than European based Uyo and Benin pitch ain’t same as that of what you’d have in BoaVista |

villagereporter: You're asking a known question The plan is to market this players including sadiq to obscure leagues abroad and thereafter continue with another round of invitations like the likes of Stephen eze etc This local coaches are good in this, it is a survival stinct If not for the likes of rohr we won't have had so many of this foreign born players like Ademola,Aina etc playing for us today Pasiero barely didn t discover any foreign born player for us except for Bright Osayi I am watching what Finidi will do in that regard Today we are hailing Ademola Lookman as our own but thanks to Rohr that convinced this boy to play for us years ago and I really wish we can get more of them into our fold From CHAN competition we equally get some home based players too that can blend with the foreign born to make a formidable team 1 Like |

forgiveness: Can you name top 4 performers for Madrid this season and let's see if Diaz make the cut But I can name for you 4 top players for Atalanta this season and Lookman name will be there We are talking of impacts and you are mentioning Diaz. We are talking of a player that sets the record of scoring an hatrick in Europa league final and you're mentioning diaz. Even CAF knows that Lookman is in top contention for APOTY.

Kog45:How would you compare Wayne Rooney of England, a country with verifiable records of births and deaths going back to at least 500 years back. Let Rooney look as old as Soyinka, his age is confirmed by the system, not how he looks. The reason is simple: the system is trustworthy and has been so for ages and not just for football but for all purposes. Come down here. What's the system? Where are the verifiable records? I don't understand how we know, we all know the kind of country we live in oo but when it comes to this age issue, we pretend that we are angels. If not for technology, didn't we know how it used to be? Some years in the past, we got it right. Some years we didn't. Although it's gotten better since 2010. So please we can look at a person's face in Nigeria and we can tell his age. Might not be a foolproof method but if we see the face of 17 or 20 years Olds in Nigeria, we know abeg. 5 Likes 1 Share |

![]() The fate of the team lies in how offensive we can be which the SE list for the qualifiers largely addresses. I'm also not comfortable with our threadbare defense but even with our complete defense at the AFCON SA nearly got a shock result over us if not for a bit of good fortune. As long as the midfield and attack will repeal and keep the bafana bafana bogged down I'm not too worried about the back line. Aina and Ekong's omissions stick out like a sore thumb my guess is that they are both not completely fit. After all said and done this squad list is still good enough to get the job done against SA and Benin no excuses. Wish the team all the best. Marjoribanks: |
