You can’t produce such highly rated players from a corrupt system. Amokachi is sick to have suggested that. That says it all. |

I want to address the talk of Amunike's team not having talented players. Different coaches have different philosophies and styles. A player might look talented in a system and look poor in another system. The tiki taka passing philosophy requires players who work hard off the ball. Whether getting into position to receive passes or working hard as a unit to retrieve the ball. The players do not dribble unnecessarily unless they are in a difficult situation. The players rely on quick decision making instead of brilliant football tricks. They did well and carried out Amunike's plans well. I see tagging them not as talented as other sets unfair because they do things the others can not. The players some tag as more talented can not fit perfectly into Amunike's system. I hope these young lads get more exposure and I hope the NFF supports them by rewarding them for their exploits. We need to keep producing top quality players. With their rewards, they can make moves to secure trials. There are coaches who need these players and they give the team different options. 2 Likes |

forgiveness: that's all you look at, stats stats and stats, ok take an example, Messi sprays a pass to Suarez and puts him clean through on goal with only the keeper to beat, Suarez sees Neymar coming and keeps his cool then gives him a square pass and he scores. the assist is for Suarez but does that mean that Suraez was creative in that move? please understand the difference between assists and chances created, this was what Solanke was doing, claiming assists from other people's through passes, that is called AWARENESS, and that's the trademark of every good poacher is it not? Isaac Success and Victor Moses? Victor Moses is pact not really tricky, He is not the Lind of player that will use some leg overs to get past you, but Success can do that, now are you asking me who is more skilful or who dribbles better? 2 Likes |

TheGoodJoe: exactly! once you say talented people start seeing a player with flashy boots beating four or five players at a bounce or a player spraying killer passes from one defence through the other. that isn't the total definition of talent. and once you are playing ticki tacka you don't really need that in fact. if a player can make basic.passes, intercept play, Mark his man or cover his zone then he is talented,these things may look easy but it takes talent to be able to do it for ninety minutes 1 Like 1 Share |

TheGoodJoe: Bro once upon a time the Nigerian team was full of talented players and they played as a team. At the youth level I expect coachea to focus more on scouting talented players and not just 'system players'. Because in the long run our footie benefits. Apart from playing as a team, the individual brilliance of Iheanacho and Iwobi earned us 3 points in Zambia. And that should be our dream at the youth level. 'Talented kids' Its not just about winning the trophy. Manu's 2013 team can boast of many future stars. How many can Amunike's team boast of? 1 Like |

Generals03: Same goes for system players. Guardiola spent his time trimming his squad because he wants players that suit his philosophy. Players that will make the team work as a single unit. We have coaches across the globe who work with quick thinking players. We have a brilliant export in Mikel who relies more on quick thinking and intelligent movement over sublime skills. He is one of the most achieving African players. That is why we need to support these brilliant youngsters. They will become assets to teams that need their kind. 1 Like |

Mickael2: I disagree sir. Passing, marking and other basics actually belong to average players. Consistently beating your markers, dribbling, laying killer passes, shooting accuracy etc belongs to the talented pool. You cannot do these things except you have it in built in you. Talent makes a player exceptional. It makes hin consistently do beyond the basics. 1 Like |

Generals03: It is difficult to keep it simple on the pitch. With simple passes, a team can create multiple clear-cut chances for the top strikers. Osimhen scored loads because of the chances created from clever build-up plays. At the end of the building plays comes the sublime through pass or wingers making brilliant runs. It is the philosophy. |

GBOLAHAN SALAMI BREAKS 15-YEAR OLD KUPS RECORD The Nigeria international has made his mark for the Yellow-Blacks by breaking a 15-year old club's record in his first season. Nigeria international Gbolahan Salami has distinguished himself with his goalscoring prowess by setting a new club goalscoring record with his Finnish club KuPS in his first season. Salami who completed a one-year move to the Finnish outfit in February has scored 13 league goals this season to break a record held by Ilja Venalainen (2012) and Peter Sampoalso (2001) with 12 goals each. The 25-year old increased his goal tally to 13 and set a new milestone with his opener in KuPS 2-0 win over HIFK earlier in the week With just a game left in the Veikkausliiga, Salami still has some goals in the bag for Marko Rajamäki's men who welcome PS Kemi at the Kuopio Football Stadium on Sunday. The former Warri Wolves and Shooting Stars forward shared a picture of his topscorer's award on his Instagram page. "Record award. Thank you God," Salami captioned his picture. Record Award.

Happy with this news! THIS IS THE TYPE OF SUPER EAGLES WE ALL HAVE BEEN LONGING FOR. *Rohr drops 'vacation players' from Algeria clash* Gernot Rohr has gone tough - he will no longer call up players he describes as "vacation players" because they have failed to fight for first-team places after two invitations. "Some players have been invited for two matches but have yet to push for a place in the first team and now we wish to invite fresh players to do what they could not do," Rohr said. "The time is gone when a player comes for two matches, collects bonuses, allowances and ticket refund and does not measure up. "What we need now are players who can fight for first-team shirts and so make the team more competitive." The likes of Israel-based midfielder Nosa Igiebor, Kingsley Madu from Zulte-Waregem of Belgium, Rangers goalkeeper Emmanuel Daniel and Jamiu Alimi from Kano Pillars could fall into this bracket of "vacation players" source: http://odili.net/news/source/2016/oct/21/500.html |

Generals03: remember I said knowing when to do which is important, more important in fact. you have to learn somewhere, if from a tender age I know how to pass, mark and shoot then that means I have the talent there, now.if you take up that talent you can then teach me other peripherals, remember we are talking about the under 17 here, do you know that a team made up of people who know how to pass well and shoot well and mark well will absolutely destroy a team made up up of.dribbles. knowing how to pass, shoot and mark is the basic talent from which other attributes of.soccer can be learnt 5 Likes 2 Shares |

Behold the words of the one who led the player rebellion against Rajevac..... ........................................................................ IT WILL BE TOUGHER IF WE LOST IN NIGERIA -ALGERIA STAR FEGHOULI Sofiane Feghouli of Algeria Sofiane Feghouli has admitted it will be even more difficult for Algeria in the World Cup qualifiers if they failed in Nigeria next month, while also being openly critical of ex-coach Milovan Rajevac. Group leaders Nigeria welcome Algeria on November 12 in Uyo after the North Africans were held to a 1-1 draw at home by Cameroon and have parted ways to Serbian coach Milovan Rajevac. “It will be a difficult trip to Nigeria in November,”conceded West Ham United star Feghouli in an interview. “We will have to bounce back immediately because if we lost, it will become very complicated to qualify (for the World Cup). We know that. “Unfortunately, it started badly with the home draw with Cameroon. “In the group stage, the first match is always very important. But we still a chance as there are still five matches to go.” Feghouli has been fingered out as leading a player rebellion against coach Rajevac, but while being critical on the choice of the Serb, the forward insisted he has never been selfish while playing for Algeria. “FAF were wrong in the choice of Rajevac,” he opened up. “He did not know the names of the players or their positions. There was very little information on Cameroon. We did not prepare as we should. “But I was not annoyed that I did not start against Cameroon because I do not have any ego problems when I play for the national team. I play for the flag.” Source: http://africanfootball.com//news/657643/It-will-be-tougher-if-we-lost-in-Nigeria-Algeria-star-Feghouli |

TheGoodJoe: Amuneke's team was talented but there was an obvious hierarchy that had two players at the top. It seemed Nwakali and Osimhen were far better than the others. After those two, you now have Chukwueze. Manu team had a bunch of players that were outstanding, Successs, Yahaya, Kelechi, Nwakali, Musa Muhammad etc... So the top level seemed broader. Either way, they were both talented and many of the youngsters from Amuneke's team are already abroad, hopefully, we will be hearing of their progress in the next few years. 1 Like |

It's obvious they just never liked Rajevac and his "selection policies". Feghouli started from the bench against Cameroun. Same with Brahimi. This obviously annoyed Feghouli and "the cabal". If they had won that game, Rajevac would have remained in charge. The Algerian players and FA were really impatient. Well, like you've said, I expect us to take advantage of their entropy state. tbaba1234: 1 Like |
