Even with an Ajagun on your list, he won't start ahead of Iwobi. #fact #smiles Note: Don't even think it's because he got another MOTM award in the EPL that makes me say so. Nope..... It's rather based on his all-round AMF attributes/abilities which I've always harped on whenever I saw him in cup games before his Full UCL debut against Barca (was his second UCL app. Following his debut against Bayern) #smiles And uhmm.... You also put Etebo on your list of 5 midfielders.... Remember? #smiles So who are the novice-players you refer to? (I'm innocently asking #CrossMyHeart) And for the records, Abdul-Jaleel Ajagun is a player I really like and rate. So don't get it twisted. **See you guys at night again** Happy Sunday Y'all..... #smiles forgiveness: |

TheGoodJoe: Pellegreedy doesn't rate Iheanacho as high as we do. We saw this coming, we complained earlier on, on this thread. Some of us maintained silence just to be in the good books and probably because we lack the energy for prolonged debate. Am happy we are coming closer to the reality. The man needs some stroke of the cane to see and think well. He [Pellegreedy] has made Rashford and Iwobi to still the show and make headlines at the expense of Nacho. Cc: terzurum5 1 Like |

BlackAlbino6: I do not think it is about rating. It is the opposite. Pellegrini does not want him to shine to much. Maybe he does not want the success to get into Iheanacho's head or he does not want Iheanacho making his stars look weak. As long as the boy is working hard in training, no beef. 1 Like |

[b][size=14pt] Alampasu Happy To Be Back, Target More Feirense Action [/size] By Johnny Edward: CD Feirense goalkeeper, Dele Alampasu, feels he is back to his best after fully recovering from an acute appendicitis which kept him out of action for three weeks, Completesportsnigeria.com reports. Alampasu who was on the bench as his Portuguese Segunda Liga side forced Olhanense to a goalless draw on Saturday, told Completesportsnigeria.com he hopes to make his league debut before the end of the season. "To be in the first team here, you have to be at your highest level and you have to understand that and appreciate that. I’m just trying to maintain my best form," Alampasu told Completesportsnigeria.com. "I pray my debut comes before the end of the season. Now I'm feeling good about my form now and all I need to do is work harder." "I feel I'm in a place where I should be and it's a level I want to keep." CD Feirense are currently sixth on the log five points off the automatic spot for promotion and the former U-17 and U20 goalkeeper isn't giving up. "We still have eight games to play, so we still have a large chunk of points to play for. I'm hopeful we can make it to the Primera division," Alampasu enthused. Alampasu has kept three clean sheets for CD Feirense in League Cup, the highlight being his performance against FC Porto. www.completesportsnigeria.com/alampasu-happy-back-target-feirense-action/ [/b] 1 Like |

[b][size=14pt] NO EUROPE RUSH FOR NIGERIA LEAGUE TOP SCORER [/size] Godwin Obaje of Wikki Tourist who is one of the top scorer in the Nigeria Professional Football League says he is not in a hurry to move to Europe after the experience he had at Slovak side AS Trencin. Obaje presently has five goals from the 8 games he has played in the Nigeria Professional Football League for Wikki Tourist leading to speculations he might be leaving soon for a team outside the shores of Nigeria like he did last season. However the 19 year old has moved quickly to deny such reports insisting he is focus on doing well for the Bauchi based team and help them to secure a continental ticket at the end of the season. “I won’t rule out a move to Europe but am not in a rush, I had a not too good experience in Slovakia with AS Trencin and I guess it was because I rushed it, have learnt from it” He told Owngoalnigeria.com. “Am fully focus on helping Wikki Tourist secure a continental ticket and only a sure deal in the summer will see me leave for Europe”. Younger brother to former Nigeria B team forward Joshua Obaje who also played for Black Leopards of South Africa and Aso Chlef of Algeria recently trained with the Nigeria team ahead of their AFCON 2017 game against Egypt but was shockingly dropped for Europe based players who failed to make the match day squad. owngoalnigeria.com/2016/04/03/no-europe-rush-for-nigeria-league-top-scorer/ [/b] 1 Like |

TheSuperNerd: Is there any player as good as Onazi @U23 level? Maybe i not aware. Pls, kindly tell me. If Siasia does not pick any of them then let us forget about winning anything in that Olympic. The Under 23 teams are not bringing unknown players to the Olympics. They will be coming with their best U23 teams. Players playing regularly for top teams in top European leagues. We should not expect work over because we won it before and came second the last time we participated. As you said, it is all up Siasia to decide. |

TheSuperNerd: Your assertion may be based on Iwobi's performance lately and i agree to some extent. However, Ajagun is more versatile than Iwobi and formation will determine who get the nod from the coach to be the starter in every matches. Etebo Oghenekaro, I Mathew, Usman Mohammed, Obinna Nwobodo, Azubuike Okechukwu etc are all novice when it comes to club and international football but i included Etebor and Okechukwu on my list because they single handedly helped us to qualify for the Olympics. That's all. |

BlackAlbino6: Hahahaa! You 4 carry all the blue crayon wey dey dis world take clear all the record wey dey for soccerway, Wikipedia, google, goal.com etc before i go take you serious. Let it be known that no amount of blue ink can erase the records Ajagun had set, is setting and will continue to set. Playing 28 matches for Panathinaikos-fc and helping them to place 2nd with just 12 points behind Olympiacos_F.C in the 2014/2015 season to you na abin get? Playing in the 2015/2016 UEFA Champions League for panathinaikos-fc and playing 12 matches with 2 goals for Panathinaikos-fc this season before he was loaned out in January 2016 na abin get for ya eyes? Continue. But show me who bin get wetin Ajagun get before we go further. Is it I. Mathew, Usman Mohammed, Azubuike Okechukwu, Obinna Nwobodo, Etebor Ogehnekaro etc? hehehe!

chrisooblog: Yes, it speaks volumes of Siasia's coaching deficiency to have left out Onazi for Etebor Ogehnekaro and Azubuike Okechukwu. Hehehe! Wetin be the results? Well, he will be known as the coach who failed woefully to qualify the Super Eagles to the AFCON twice and sacked twice. Na who lose? Even with Onazi one leg, he's still far better than Azubuike Okechukwu and Etebor Ogehnekaro. Abi i lie? Hehehe! Atleast, i go still fit do 50 slide power point presentation for Solanke but for some na 0. |

AIG07: Haba! Point to the players that doesn't deserve to be on my list. If sentiment is put aside, i don't think there is any striker banging in goals like Kayode Olanrewaju @ U23 level. He scored 13 goals last season in the isreali top league and 11 goals in the Austria league this season. The boy deserves a trial. |

Another 90 minutes for Ndidi in Genk's 1:0 loss. This young man has played almost every minute this season for one of the top teams in Belgium. Not many Nigerian players can boast of this, even those in lower leagues. Another 90 minutes for Otigba too. 1 Like |

tbaba1234: What i call i top league is one that the coach can easily watch. It makes it easier for the coach to strategize when he can actually switch on the television and watch the player. Minus PSG, Belgium and France are not that far apart. Nigeria is getting back to the level that our players are visible in top leagues and that is great news. 1 Like |

After painstackinly selecting the Defenders and midfielders. I will now proceed to selecting the attackers 1) Isaac Success; This is the second season of the Granada star in the Spanish laliga and he has not disappointed with 5 goals and 1 assist this season. Success will be joining Watford FC for the start of the 2016/17 season. He can play anywhere across the front line. He is 20 years old. 2) Kelechi Iheanacho; This is his first season in professional club football. However, he proved his worth when giving the chance to play. He has 9 goals and some assist to his credit. Plays as a RW, Second striker and Striker. He is 19 years old. 3) Moses Simon; He was a revelation last season with Genk who he helped to win the league for the first time in their history. These season he has garnered more experience by playing and scoring in the Champions League. No doubt, he deserves to make the list. Primarily plays as a left winger, and can as well play as a Striker or second striker. He will be 21 years of age this year. 4) Ezekiel Imoh; Ezekiel Imoh wealth of experience can't be dismissed. Having scored 47 goals in the last 4 seasons in one of the Top 10 European leagues in the world and even went to score in the Europa League this season. He can play as a Striker, Rw and second striker. He is 22 years of age 5) Dominic Solanke; He came to limelight last season with the Chelsea youth team when he helped them to win the FA Youth Cup and UEFA youth league. He even became the top scorer of the UEFA youth league tournament with 12 goals, and because of these, Chelsea rewarded him by promoting him to the first team at the age of 17 and later featured him in last year UEFA Champions League last season making him the youngest debutant for Chelsea in the UEFA Champions League. In his first season in the Eredivisie, he scored 7 goals even though he was out due to injury for 3 month. Although Solanke prefers playing as a striker, he can also play as a winger on either side and as an attacking midfielder. He is only, 18 years old. Final list Goalkeepers Emmanuel Daniel Dele Alampasu Defenders Leon Balogun Kenneth Omerue Moses Odubanjo William Troost-Ekong (Ndidi or Awaziem) Kingsley Madu Stanley Amuzie (Ekpolo Elohor or Musa Mohammed) Midfielders Ogenyi-onazi Abdul Ajagun Alex Iwobi Azubuike Okechukwu Etebor Ogehnekaro Attackers Isaac Success Kelechi Iheanach Moses Simon Ezekiel Imoh Dominic Solanke 1 Like |

forgiveness: Strong list but i do not think Odubanjo should be ahead of Ndidi or Awaziem. What has Ajagun done this season? A player is only as good as his form. Ndidi should replace Onazi. Onazi hardly gets games these days. The attack is very solid. |
Re: All The News About The Olympic Eagles (U-23) HERE! by forgiveness: 12:14am On Apr 04, 2016 |
tbaba1234: Moses Odubanjo doesn't play in the same position with Ndidi and Awaziem. He is a RB but the other two can both play as CB and DMF. Ajagun has played 12 league matches and scored 2 goals for panathinaikos-fc this season before he was sent on loan in January. And as soon as he got to his new club, he has made them a prospect for next season Europa League. Hmm! I have seen both played before and i can tell you Onazi is more efficient and mobile than Ndidi in the midfield. Although, he hardly gets play time this season but he has seen 613 minutes of football in the league this season minus Coppaitalia and Europa League. If you add it together, he must have seen a least 1000 minutes of soccer this season. Thanks. The attack is surely our strength. |
Re: All The News About The Olympic Eagles (U-23) HERE! by TheSuperNerd(m): 4:35am On Apr 04, 2016 |
I love your attack list. I knew Solanke will make it but hey, this is solid. Solanke, Success, Simon (the triple S) plus Iheanacho and Imoh Ezekiel........ I'll say "EXPLOSION" is the word... Not bad Sir Forgiveness....... Good to know we got some fine strong mix of options in our attack no matter who makes it in the end (among the really good ones). On the final list of 18 as summarised by you, all I gotta say is the whole squad of 18 is generally strong but I have a few reservations here and there..... but on the whole, it's a pretty solid squad. Good morning..... catch y'all later #smiles forgiveness: |
