[quote author=ypeace post=33893761] I never meant that they are bad teams. But if those 5 players taken away are regular in the team, then I think the team will be destabilized a little. Moreover playing a better team which I would enable us assess out team better. Don't you think so? Baseless!!...FE didnt play wit some of dia regulars too 2 Likes |

Why is MG playing guys that have already been dropped? I was thinking this is a time to gel guys that are already on the train to New Zealand. I can see Muazam and Saleh on the scoresheet. 1 Like |

LeeCodeman: My question never dared insinuate that my beloved flying eagles are not a top team so lets get that very clear young man. The fact remains if you lose 5-2 and 5-0 u can not be that good. Even our home teams didn't lose that bad only the dolphins lost 4-1 and that was because they lost their talisman Emem Eduok a single player so that should show you that maybe those 5 are all those clubs have. |

Usman and Alhassan scored. Nice farewell goals. Awoniyi might have been rested. One or two more friendlies with national teams and they should be set. |

BascoVanVeli: Old man, that's because you assume that the Flying Eagles are not such a good team to demolish teams 5-2, 5-1, 4-1. And then I laugh! What's the scoreline between the U17 and Mexico in UAE 2013 in the group stage? What's the scoreine against Iraq in the same competition? What about Iran? What about Sweden in the KnockOut stage? What about Mexico in the final? Forget, this team will make teams go down low in New Zealand. 2 Likes |

BascoVanVeli: I disagree, the german team was selected from the same group of players out of numerous teams, note that this is the b team of freiburg not the under 19. Obuh boys played nurnberg two years ago and could only manage a 1 1 draw. Many teams in the tournament are not better than those we played. Our league players have no business losing to under 20 at all. It shows to me that the standard is low. |

LeeCodeman: im glad u have respect for ur elders so u should know with age comes knowledge now listen carefully, i never said we are not good enough honestly im doubting if you are even reading what i write or u just scheme through it. Where in any of my comments have i ever said we are not such a good team. it seems like you are the only one with such thoughts and i beg u don't associate that with me a again because as a green blooded Nigerian i take such accusations personally. Don't make yourself seem like a super fan at other people's expense. |

BascoVanVeli: It's alright. I understand. With old age comes knowledge. Also, with old age comes forgetfulness. So read your comments again. Then read my responses. You said that for those teams to have been beaten 5-2 and 5-0, it means they are not good enough, hence my response by saying this is not the first time these golden boys are doing it. Scoring high is their forte. Demolishing and dismantling defences is their strength. Next time, dont underestimate what these boys can do regardless of the opposition. 2 Likes |

Former Nigeria U20 coach John Obuh has said expectations for the Flying Eagles to have a good outing at the 2015 Fifa U20 World Cup in New Zealand are very high judging by the calibre of talent in the side and their antecedents. Manu Garba’s boys remain unbeaten since the team transitioned from being U17 champions and will face Brazil, Hungary, and North Korea in Group E of the championship billed to commence on May 30. Obuh, who led Nigeria U20 to Colombia 2011 and Turkey 2013 Fifa U20 World Cups, told Goal that the Flying Eagles have quality players and should go for gold. “I’m sure they know the magnitude of the tournament and judging from what they have been doing at the U17 level down to the African Youth Championship, they are expected to do well,” Obuh told Goal. “They have players that have been together for a while and can win, so Nigerians are expecting them to come out flying when the championship begins.” He also claimed that the wild card given to Europe-based trio of Kelechi Iheanacho, Isaac Success and Moses Simon in the 21-man final squad will not have a negative impact on the team. “I don’t see that affecting the team because they are doing well for their respective teams. Remember they were part of the team to the U17 World Cup and aside from this, their coaches have a strong faith in them,” he continued. “The most important thing is that they join the team on time, blend and complement their other colleagues’ efforts. With this, there won’t be any problem,” he concluded. Nigeria will face Brazil in their opening game on June 1 at the Stadium Taranaki in New Plymouth. 1 Like |

samwind1508: Our issue is not about getting a quality coach. The issue is we believe every oyinbo man is technically better than the local coaches. Did you see the Mexican coach get so clueless when we whipped them 2-0 at the U17 final against Manu Garba's boys? Moreso, asides Bonfrere Jo and Westerhof, how many white coaches were successful here? As much as I loathe Keshi after loving him so much, you can't take his acheivements from him. Only Westerhof was able to match that 2 Likes |
