goldfish80: Somebody told him it was wiser to stay pu, he took the advise like the small boy he is. And Austria is no Netherlands anyway, so Alaba should have had Nigeria as first choice Balogun was nowhere near the German team, another easy choice He's 20, if you send him another invite next year and he refuses, you move on. Haba! I don't support all these calls for him to never be considered again, do you guys remember how many times Mikel shunned us when he was young? We had every right never to invite him again, but he was given chances repeatedly and it paid off If we want to go to Russia and make a mark, we need to go with the best in every section, we will invite anyone with even a quarter of Nigerian blood to compete and we ought to do that at least twice before throwing in the towel. NFF is not offering the players any incentives, Nigeria is not one of the top countries most would consider if you gave them ten choices because the administration is shiit, so cut the foreign boys some slack. No need to burn someone on a stake because we feel slighted Good Morning |

FROM FAYEMI TO IHEANACHO: IT'S 167 GOALS Pa Dejo Fayemi, the octogenarian now living Ibadan holds the record of scoring Nigeria's first World Cup qualifying goal. He did that when his 50thminute strike reduced the tally to 2-1 in an eventual 4-1 loss to the Black Stars of Ghana in Accra on August 28, 1960. Fayemi scored again in the return leg match in Lagos that ended 2-2. Till date, Nigeria's number of goals has risen to 167 making the Super Eagles the second team behind Tunisia as side with most goals in all-time ranking of scorers among African teams in the World Cup qualifying series. But on January 7, 2001 in Port Harcourt, Nigeria became the first African side to hit the 100-goal mark in the World Cup qualifiers following a 3-0 defeat of Sudan. The historic 100thgoal was scored by in the 57thminute by Victor Agali when he raised the score line to 2-0. Obafemi Martin's goal against Kenya in Nairobi which brought score line to 1-1 on the road to South Africa 2010 was Nigeria's 150thgoal since that of Fayemi in 1960.

So when City were not winning, I was not thinking of the short gains but the long term fruits of multiple success. Which is the true dream of fans. |

He talked of his father's admiration of the Super Eagles. However, I think the Super Eagles belongs to those who feel ready to play for the team. Those who are devoted to the Jersey and flag. If Ebuehi tomorrow feels he wants to play for his homeland and he is passionate to make an impact. If he makes a good addition, I do not we should reject him. |

U-TURN?- Family Denies Ebuehi’s Withdrawal, Insist He Will Play For Nigeria The controversy surrounding Tyronne Ebuehi’s withdrawal from the Nigeria squad for the World Cup 2018 qualifiers against Algeria has taken a different twist. 20 year old Ebuehi, who is also eligible to play for the Netherlands was called up for the first time by Nigeria, but in a rather bizarre twist, the ADO Den Haag full back rejected the call in an interview on the website of his club. “I see it as a great honor that I am noted in my homeland,” says Ebuehi. “But at this moment ADO Den Haag requires my full attention. Especially now that I am settled in the team. Therefore, it doesn’t seems to me like the right time to travel to Nigeria for the match. I want to focus completely on the club . but I certainly do not rule out playing for Nigeria in the future, if the next time am called up ” He told the club official website. After his statement, Owngoalnigeria.com contacted the president of the Nigeria Football Federation Amaju Pinnick, who revealed he has spoken with the father over his son’s withdrawal. ” It’s not true. His agent (Wessel Weezenberg) is behind that statement, it was done without the consent of the player. As a matter of fact his father confidently told me that he will play for Nigeria” He told Owngoalnigeria.com. ” For now, we don’t know why the agent is trying to block him from Nigeria. He earlier denied contact with Nigeria over his services. But we are speaking with his family. We have their word. He will play for Nigeria”. http://owngoalnigeria.com/2016/11/01/u-turn-family-denies-ebuehis-withdrawal-insist-he-will-play-for-nigeria/ 1 Like |

If Algeria play a defensive 4-2-3-1, then we will struggle. Zambia was good to us because we were able to control the midfield, and so dictate the pace of the match. With Leeken's only signature formation, I will not mind having a slim 1-0 win. It cannot be more than 1 goal that separates us on the 12th anyway. |

TheGoodJoe:I think the number tallies. Alaba is 24 yrs old, in 2007 he should be 15. Screening for the 2007 U17 team should have been opened in 2006 when he was actually 14. He made his debut for Bayern at 17yrs and a few months in 2009, so the number tallies. |
