Joebie: Be sincere, go back to our list of strikers and tell me Awoniyi would have displaced anyone of them. Remember Olanrewaju Kayode and Henry Onyekuru did not even make it. Does this not translate instead to the fact that our attack is more competitive than that of Cameroon? 1 Like |

The point is when you perform at a higher stage you bring attention to yourself. You can be hardly ignored. When you perform at a lower stage you also bring attention to yourself. But it may take you longer to get a call up. Nwakaeme was the best player in Israel last season. But he is just getting called because of his exploits in the UEFA champions league qualification, and he is seen as someone who has grit, that gave him the advantage especially as regards Cameroon. Don't forget it also took Ogu long before he got a recall Players like Kayode, Onyekuru brought some attention to themselves, but don't expect they will displace proven regulars based on recent matches in the national team. What some of you consider past glory is not in the distant past like we want to make it seem. Any player who is not meeting up will be phased out eventually. There are so many players doing quite well, we can only make accurate comparisons overtime. We can't just say one player is better than another player based on the most recent stats. Modified I will say players like moses Simon and Musa better watches their backs. Because there are players gearing up to seize their chance with both hands. But don't E xpect that change should happen suddenly. Musa for example earned an assist against Algeria. He has scored in recent friendlies. It will be hard to just dump him. He would be kept in SE fold for now even if it means just making the bench forgiveness: |

[quote author=Kog45 post=59841839][/quote] You dey mind dem. As you rightly said, I am also ok with Onazi and Ndidi but excluding Onazi completely from the league for Mikel Agu who is also in the Turkish league, alongside Ogu and Esiti, is a no no for me' On Simon and Musa, I think the goal is to bring inOnyekuru whom I think is good but not better than the two. They are just deceiving demselves. 1 Like |
Re: "The Super Eagles Thread: The Road To AFCON 2025 And 2026 World Cup by Joebie: 1:49pm On Aug 26, 2017 |
Onyekuru could be better. Don't write him off just after a few games in the Jupiler league. A better judgement can be made overtime. It's not like Musa and Moses have an excellent record at their clubs of recent. forgiveness: |
Re: "The Super Eagles Thread: The Road To AFCON 2025 And 2026 World Cup by Joebie: 1:51pm On Aug 26, 2017 |
Oh yes. But my point was we need to also consider players in leagues we consider low, especially in positions we need reinforcement. Icon4s: |

komekn:We are talking about the Right Back position which is up for grabs owing to the fact that we don't have a specialist in that position. The better player in the Nigerian league who have displayed guts, skill and ability in that position deserves a look in. Going by his past antecedents as an ex youth international, Caf champions league and CHAN championship player, it makes sense to have him in the mix. If he's performing in Nigeria, nothing stops him from performing in Cyprus and Netherlands where his competition for the position plays. That has been my position 1 Like |

Mickael2: show me facts, shikena! What is your defination of complete and tell me why Onyekuru is better and more complete than Simon Moses? I want facts. Who told you Simon Moses played as a winger last season? How many assist does he(Oyekuru) have this season? zero out of all the matches played so far. So. how is he better than Simon Moses? Atleat, Moses was incharch of tacking set pieces for his club and he can score with a free kick, can that be said of Oyekuru? Na lie you lie, Moses has more game time than Onyekuru in all competition this this season. ntor! |

Joebie: Not just some but all eventually. My own is the transition should be gradual and must lead to improvements. |

forgiveness: I'm surprised you didn't mention Olayinka. The guy have been the best Nigerian player in Europe this season so far. He has been tearing teams to pieces all season. Apart from. Victor Moses, no winger in this SE team can lace his boots as I speak. No jokes . |
Re: "The Super Eagles Thread: The Road To AFCON 2025 And 2026 World Cup by Icon4s(m): 2:06pm On Aug 26, 2017 |
forgiveness: For now I still pick Simon ahead of Onyekuru. Although Simon will not make my starting list. |

We are saying the same thing. But Russia is the context here. Maybe about 30% of this set up will not make it to Russia, if we qualify. Icon4s: |

UEFA league qualification. Before now he was best in Israel. Who cared, but we started noticing him then. It will be foolhardy to thing match up is never considered during invitation. I think he also got a call up because Cameroon is the opponent and Rohr feel he can add the value he needs. There is no double standards in selection. There are many factors the coaches consider. Modified. Rohr has ran the rule over Kayode. Let's not not forget that. forgiveness: |

Icon4s:I believe u have been following this game for so long and it's simple 80% of this present squad w make d team to Russia,only special talent w gate crash into d team just like d way Olishe,Amuneke make d US 94 team during qualifier and Chidi Nwanu,Mike Emenalo break into d main team by displaced Isaac Semitone and Nduka Ugbade respectively after Tunisia 94 Afcon. Truly,goalkeeping aspect is for grab for anybody coz d opportunity is open,Ikeme is down,Enyeama coming back look dicey, Akpeyi yet to prove is equal to d task. RB,I see Ola Aina as d answer but need to wait for his debut game but he has every thing to claim d RB,Echiejele at LB,well I can say much but a good player in d mould of Aina w be an answer,though Echiejele still has d experience. The CB is okay with d pair of Balogun and Ekong,hope player like Awaziem can raise his game and Omeruo can regain his form but any good rookie can break into this team. D midfield is saturated with a lot of options either in DM,CM,AM with player like Mikel,Ndidi,Onazi,Ogu,Agu,Etebor,Iwobi,Esiti etc so it w take a rare gem to break into this team,also attacks is full of options with d likes of Nacho, Ighalo,Musa,Vic Moses,it w take special talent to displace this guys. |
