Hahahahahah! A country with foresight always makes the move to snatch talents to improve itself before any makes move. In this case, our NFF and some people lacks the foresight to spot hidden talent due to sentiments, nepotism, pomposity and egoism.

That is why we have lost many talents over the years and we will keep loosing them. The likes of David Alaba, Dele Alli and recently Manuel Akanji could have improved our team and given us the edge or hope to dream of winning the world cup but reverse is the case, they don't have dreams and lacks ambition.


No bi for hear I don dey cry Dominic Solanke and co since over two and half years ago but many people said they are mediocre, they are English, they are not technical, blah blah blah, and even called me names.

Behold, the rejected stones are now becoming the corner stones.

The point is, many are not thinking of winning the world cup but I am,and that is the difference between me and many forumites here.

Daninya11:

Sports minister has given the NFF technical committee his 100% percent support.
Coach Rohr has to comply with their recommendations.

Humility017:

the problem is not about clubs or coaches not coming for nacho...
the whole problem lies on nacho wanna keep sitting on city's bench...
so annoying it does not matter to him provided he keep getting SE call ups

maidaboi:
if they turn star and don't want to represent nigeria, lets it be so and lets us focus on our on groom hident talents
shikena

Humility017:

the coach is just moving from frying pan to fire...
I think...someone like siasia should have been his assistant.. that Yusuf has nothing to offer..

NP offense please

Mickael2:



Chris Green and Garba Lawal are the technical guys? OMG!!! Christian Chukwu I can understand

TheGoodJoe:


I am disappointed that Guardiola insists he will not let Nacho go without a replacement. It will prove difficult convincing a quality striker to join City because our Chairman, Khaldoon Al Mubarak insists Aguero is staying. With Gabriel Jesus there, a quality striker might end up not playing.

With Kevin De Bruyne and Raheem Sterling who can play as strikers, I think Guardiola should let Iheanacho go and promote one of the young forwards. Moreno will join the team later and I see Gundogan and Sane having the ability to play the role.

Although they are not as lethal as Iheanacho in the box, I feel we can cope without Nacho. I hope Guardiola sanctions Nacho's departure early to give what ever clubs that gets him time to blend him in during the preseason.

Humility017:


amuneke with his lust for gratifications cost us these....if he had encouraged and inspired the lads...under his watch...
I guess we would have had a formidable under 20 team...that will make us remember the Young 3 lions less....
so now all attention are on the few young Nigerians in diaspora

forgiveness:


When Lookman was training with the Nigerian English team in England dem no see em talent?

When Solanke said he wanted to play for Nigeria when he was at the Eredivisie, NFF dem blind to notice his talent?

is nacho dumb? can't he talk?
life won't give u what u deserve at times but what you demand.....
sometimes one just have to be serious and demand his rights... otherwise men will use you.
every individual have the tendency to be selfish...

let him remain there....probably African players have low self esteem I think so

TheGoodJoe:


Five years contract? Most of the power is with the club. It is up to Guardiola to let the boy go. I understand Pep's challenge. I see him switching to a 4-4-2 formation next season. He was brutal the last time he tried it with Aguero and Gabriel Jesus attacking.

He needs a third striker because most of the creative forwards like Sane, Silva and De Bruyne can play Support. However, I feel he should soften his heart and let Nacho go.

sontoly:

Bros won't blame NFF that much, I will blame the country as a whole, our sports generally is bad, we don't groom young players early probably cos of financial incapabity. Nigeria is the worst country to groom stars we like already made stuff we be like parasite reaping from English developmental football.
Lookman, Solanke and co will always have England as their priority, once dey can't make it to the squad den dey can consider there second choice. I don't blame dem that much.

Icon4s:


YES raised to the power of 1000!

Remember I included Adi.

Icon4s:


He should have as well also called for Utaka, Yakubu and Aghahowa

Mickael2:


Vanzekin(hope that's the name), is studying Engineering in a university in Nigeria, can't remember the exact one

Icon4s:


But at that point in time where was the 'organized defense ' that he was left one on one with Rantie. And he did the 'right thing' by allowing Rantie to dribble him like an amateur keeper right?

yes you get it, but that guy is a goalie ooo

forgiveness:


Do you know that one legged Martins Obafemi and Peter Odenwinge are better than Ighalo, Ideye, Iheanacho and Kayode combined?

This one of the reasons we can never win the world cup. The mentality to discard players at will in the name of name old man..

If Defore, Ibrahamovic and Gyan were Nigerians dem no go smell National team even if dem dey score 1m goals per second. It doesn't matter, we need fresh blood according to your mentally.

Oo! I see! Iheanacho place is at stake hence the need to protect his interest. Bhuuuhahaha!

Na Iheanacho get the national team?

Humility017:

what' does dalung know about football? if we were in a sane country... he should have been fired before now... he is a serious problem that needs to be solved I never expect much from these government anyway.....

maidaboi:
@forgiveness you are right the guy is good lets hope the move happens
and thank for all the news i'm really enjoying them

AIG07:
All this claim that Godswill Akpabio International stadium is bewitched to me holds no water and if we must change our home venue then the national stadium in Lagos should be next on the line-it has proved to be the best ground for our national teams over the years and never to abuja cos uyo is far better than that national stadium in abuja in structure and support...

forgiveness:



America, France England and advanced European countries will not say what you just said because with all the money they invested in sport, science etc they are still poaching for talents from under developed countries.

They wanted to play for Nigeria but NFF refused to act. Period.

sontoly:


bros one Legged?, really?? are u trying to be impressive or u just want make us laff?, all those players u mentioned are playing for their retirement, dey may not even bother playing for us.
if u don't give young players opportunities to get experience there won't be experienced players na.

Mickael2:


unfortunately he is a nigerian. If he was a white guy he would have been in one top club and he wouldn't even need to study anymore, or he can study while playing. Here in Nigeria football takes all your time

sontoly:


I don't totally agree bro, Jordan Ibe was begged to play for us when he was in Liverpool but the guy was looking for england call up now Nigeria no send am, ameobi also did the same thing his brother Sammy said he wants to play for england when he was at Newcastle.
Guy did the Nff throw a party before Iwobi agreed to play for us?, those lads prefer england as their first choice, then if they can't get it then they settle for Nigeria. Also know that some factors may lead to it, the advice from parents and loved ones also . If na me sef I will go for England as my prefer option.

forgiveness:


We can't generalize all the players abroad because of one or two bad sheeps. It's not wise.

Lookman was part of team Nigeria in England for some time but nobody invited him to the national team. They sounded Amuneke but he was not interested.


Dominic Solanke showed interest but NFF refused to act. Period.

Mickael2:


so when the going gets tough they come to us but when it starts getting better they ditch us? Which sane coach will invite a lad who was finding it difficult to score in the dutch league? You make sense sometimes then at other times I just can't grab what your problem is

forgiveness:



Who told you he found it difficult to score in the Eredivisie?

If he was that poor, why did Chelsea recall him and made him the third choice striker?

It is high time we start spotting talent. That is the wise man's life.

maidaboi:
bros abeg leave that talk
why didn't england invited them to the 3 lions?
