I said ' .....or any Islamic country' and not 'any OTHER Islamic country.

Napoleon55:

Yes

Una no wan see Shehu and Musa before. Now una wan use 'fasting' skim them out.
Make una fear God o.

Ahmed Musa did say (I read it on Supersports. com) that the fasting is not an issue, that he is a professional, that they are used to it and he was fasting in Brazil 2014. That means he was fasting when he scored against Argentina.

MUSA NOT WORRIED BY RAMADAN
Super Eagles winger, Ahmed Musa says the on-going Ramadan is not a problem for him ahead of Saturday’s 2019 Africa Cup of Nations qualifier against South Africa.
Ramadan is the ninth month of the Islamic calendar and is observed by Muslims worldwide as a month of fasting (Sawm) to commemorate the first revelation of the Quran to Muhammad according to Islamic belief.
This annual observance is regarded as one of the Five Pillars of Islam.
The month lasts 29–30 days based on the visual sighting of the crescent moon, according to numerous biographical accounts compiled in the hadiths.
Musa, a Muslim, says as a professional footballer, he does not think his performance will be detrimentally affected if he is selected to face the Bafana Bafana on Saturday.
The Leicester City man is drawing from his experience at the 2014 Fifa World Cup finals in Brazil where he had to play at the highest level under similar conditions.
"I don't think (Ramadan) will affect me at all. We have been here for a long time,” Musa said at a press conference in Uyo on Thursday.
“Ramadan is a very difficult thing but we are used to it so I don't think there's anything new about it.
“Most of the players have been playing football during the Ramadan so I don't think we have to skip Ramadan because of football.
“I have played at the World Cup during (Ramadan) under the former coach, the late Stephen Keshi and played all 90 minutes,” he said.
Musa has been capped 63 times by Nigeria at senior level.

Nigeria is actually short in defense. There is plenty talent in other areas.

when shall we creat one for ourself, a libero for that matter,
ROHR is a good coach we need his type to mould our young local players into world beater,

Hati13:

Yes

good to have you here, you are welcome to our humble yet captivating thread of nairaland

That is why we have under 17 and under 20 coaches. Manu Garba, Ugbade and Amunike boys are already becoming important members of the Super Eagles.

Rohr's primary job is to get the best team, he can assemble.

Ehn ehn. make this guy no play rough o.. We don't want any casualty tomorrow o.



But ehn 63 caps with a return of 13 goals is a poor stat for an attacker like him

Who is Onomah?
Josh of Spurs?
Isn't he attacking minded?
If if he is defensive, comparing him to Ndidi is sacrilegious.

A player who is chopping bench everyday

Tho I know u re just having fun towards that comparison but it's too far and it would be better if you do compare him to Grade A bench warmers like him

I thought chopping bench in bigger club is better than playing regularly in a lesser club.

tbaba1234:
Manuel Akanji starts for Switzerland. No more chance of convincing him to play for 9ja.

Jesus! You can all see what I have been talking about.

They say we lack defenders but here we are, they overlooked this one for some players. No problem.

forgiveness:

Chopping get grade, Morata, Asensio, Andre games, and benchers who play regularly can be said to be C.

Iheanacho, Jansen, and those who plays once in blue moon make grade B.

Onomah, na confirm grade A.
No one knows his ability, he's more of an Academy player.
Don't u ever compare Onomah to Ndidi,,, his mates re Woodburn, archaaf, tomori

safarigirl:
lol, Onomah is chopping bench in a 'better club' while Ndidi is collecting young player of the year and chasing the stats of the top midfielder in the EPL

forgiveness:


Jesus! You can all what I have been talking about.

some players like Awaziem and Ebuehi abi?

Until then.
He's still playing U-20\21 for now.
At the moment, he's nowhere near ndidi

forgiveness:

Squad strengthening.

Oga! Onomah is a full squad player of Tottenham. Take it or leave it.
