pyrex23: Easier to get is an assumption not a fact, the fact that Tega isn't saying much doesn't mean he is not considering Nigeria. I see Tega as a poacher too, but he brings more to the table and he is improving game by game. Dresser seems to be on an upward spiral and only time will tell. However, it's not in dispute that the EPL is a considerably more superior league. Dresser could also do a U turn if Belgium come calling for him. 1 Like |

tglobal: First @bolded suggested that I make comments from the bitterness of my soul and that I don't have critical thinking of my constructive argument. Far from it, my Oga. My mind is very clear and sound enough to make a constructive argument devoid of jaundice or parochial scope. Let me make myself clear like I made myself cleared to Icon4s. I don't have any problem with Rohr's list though raised eyebrows against Kayode's exclusion based on the obvious on ground. Nevertheless, the same people pointing accusing fingers are those against Rohr's list. How? Fishing out Onazi, Simon Moses and Ahmed Musa from Rohr's list and tagging them 'past glory players.' They are bent on casting them out of the team without giving any cogent reason for this. However, I just took dem by their word by referring to some players who have done nothing of note this season, and I also tagged them 'past glory players'. Do you know what happened afterward? I was called a tribalist. So, should I also call them a tribalist because the players they wanted to replace with the aforementioned players are from their divide? My brain told me not to do that but rather go into a healthy debate before one pounced on me from nowhere with the attached label of a tribalist. My point is for them to have a critical thinking about the so called 'past glory theory' and not necessarily to remove Iheanacho (I dey crazy) and Onyekuru from list. All my gesture was sacartiscm at best. E.0.D I have seen the list days or hours before yesterday but I never mused or altered a word. But I am bewildered that some see it as a sacrilege to omit Iheanacho from the list but as a privilege to omit Ahmed Musa from the list, on the grounds that Iheanacho is an old member of the national team. Is Ahmed Musa a toddler in the National team? Now, to the second @bolded. Rohr to me is a puppet because he seems not to know the right players to use in a match set up. Using players wrongly in their positions is absurd and unacceptable. If you say there's nothing like tribalism in the National team or no nepotism and corruption, please state it clearly or plainly for the world to see then I go mellow. @bolded 3, By the grace of God, I know a sound judgment and I know what is good. You can remember, I defended Dominic Solanke, Onomah, Ademola-lookman, Agbo, Tiago Ilori etc even when many didn't see any good in dem, but I stood my ground and today these players are doing well for themselves. As you can see, I can see the best in others hence my calm approach in dealing with people here. And lastly, 4th @bolded, Amokachi said there is bribery and corruption in the selection of players. What does it mean? 2 Likes |

He still believes those statements strongly. I've asked him to come with his candidates and back it up with their achievements.. I'm still waiting. If I say that section of the country he is defending don't have the best coaches AT THE MOMENT, he or some of us will get emotional. As much as I don't believe in rotation, especially when nothing is broken, I'm satisfied with the shortlist so far, because the credentials of some of them cannot be ignored. However, if he is already suspecting there will be foul play in the coaches selection, he can come up with names from his section of the country, and back it up that they are the best we have at the moment. In all, we just need to get this tribalism out of our ahead at least on this thread. Outside, this thread, I don't care what you do with your life. Petrobros: 1 Like |

forgiveness: I admit to having to have to eat a solid meal of humble pie with regards to my previous view of Dominic Solanke didn't really expect him to cut it. But he is now literally benching more experienced and expensive player's at Liverpool. Bewildered by the statement which you attribute to Amokachi, it's ludicrous I am shocked to my bone marrow. Amokachi I know well and Wellu. It's a case of the kettle calling the pot black. Or closer to home for me, Onanefe Ibori giving a lecture on the evils of corruption and how to stop it. Can you substantiate that statement you have attributed to Amokachi 1 Like |

Petrobros: Hahahahahah! You remember that, right? If Rohr continues to base his selections around some set of players attached to some set of agents without extending invitation to any player doing well in Europe, sorry, I will be forced to retain my assertions of the national team practicing cultism. About NFF favoring a section of the country for coaching appointments, ask Icon4s, he knows better. I am only referring to his comment on this topic. |

forgiveness: My friend, it is not someone like me that you can deceive with all these your comments. I know virtually everyone here. Please try avoid making statements here that can spark off ethnic combats. You have no moral justification to make that kind of comment on Rohr and the NFF. No section of the country will feel happy when such allegations are put forward against them. Even if you feel aggrieved that your section of the country is not getting a fair share there are better ways of going about it and just know also that all sections of the country cannot have equal represent in the national team. 4 Likes |

Joebie: I think it.actually makes it worse. as a SS you are meant to score some more, I don't really get your position in this argument. so a SS with a return of 5 goals and 7 assists is good enough for you? 2 Likes |
Re: "The Super Eagles Thread: The Road To AFCON 2023, 2025 And 2026 World Cup by Joebie: 9:21pm On Aug 27, 2017 |
that's exactly my point. As an SS you should score even more goals.. Simon played a few times as a midfielder. For me Moses Simon has an edge because of Europa League and past decent performances in the SE.. Basing it on Jupiler League alone, Onyekuru has a better stat. Modified Maybe I need to break that table down, if you are not getting the whole gist. MOSES SIMON In the Jupiler League alone: 14 times as an SS --> 3 goals, 3 assists 2 times as a LW --> 0 goals, 1 assist 2 times as a CF --> 0 goals, 0 assist ONYEKURU In the Jupiler League alone: 34 as LW --> 19 goals, 8 assists 3 as CF --> 1 goal, 2 assists 3 as RW --> 3 goals 1 as SS --> 1 goal Mickael2: 2 Likes |

Mickael2: Simon Moses has the edge for now over Henry Onyekuru. Statistics are not everything. At least Rohr had Onyekuru in camp twice. And for him to still prefer Simon it tells a lot. |

That's the point I've been making. Although I would rather have Onyekuru, I still respect Rohr's decision. No suspicions of foul play..Besides Onyekuru is on stand-by if i'm not mistaken. And that means he is still in SE's set up. Icon4s: 1 Like |

Petrobros: The truth is you don't know the cause of the debate. EOD If I do not have moral justification to express my thought about a public officer as enshrined in the Constitution of the federal Republic of Nigeria then who has? I have told you plain and clear that, if Rohr and his cronies continues to ignore good players doing well in Europe, I will point it out. GBAM! Today there was an agitation in Aba, why? Some people want to maintain the magogo way hence the ventilation of anger and agitation springing up left right and center. Do not assume I feel aggrieved some section of the country is not having a fair share due to their inability or lack of talent but I feel aggrieved that such act can never propell our nation team to the greatest height. This is simply my worries and I will do anything in my little way through this mighty forum to propagate my course. Shikena! 1 Like |

@bolded, that's a call for Federal Character. I think it's absurd even in our national politics. And that's why we will ALWAYS be backward as a nation. Thank goodness we just won the AfroBasket. Based on our population and love for sports we should be dominating sports in Africa, just as the US dominate the Olympics. Maybe we will get there in the next 100 years. Petrobros: 2 Likes |
