Eagles List For Zambia – Iwobi Returns, Isacc Success Replaces Aaron Samuel In Standby List September 21, 2017 Arsenal forward Alex Iwobi has been invited by coach of the senior Nigeria national team Gernot Rohr ahead of their crucial World Cup 2018 Qualifiers clash against Zambia in Uyo on the 7th of October. Iwobi who scored one of the goals in the reverse tie in Ndola where Nigeria triumphed 2-1 missed out in their last games, which was the back to back clash against Cameroon. Injury was cited as the reason why he didn’t make the squad for the games against Cameroon, and after returning to full fitness he has been invited by coach Rohr for the Zambia Clash where Nigeria need a win to seal a ticket to the 2018 World Cup in Russia. Still on the list which will be made official next week, CSKA Moscow forward Aaron Samuel has been axed completely from the list, with Watford ace Isacc Success taking his spot in the list of players placed on standby. Rohr is a big admirer of the abilities of Success, but left the forward out of the squad for their last set of games as he wasn’t getting games at Watford, but off late he has played in some games. Success has also not impressed the coach with his body mass, which usually forces the coach to place him on special drills whenever he is in the camp of the Nigeria national team. Ade Emmanuel |

iamdynamite: I am a big Enyimba Fan. I once used to chose to watch Enyimba games instead of EPL matches but i don't do that any more. I used to know the starting 11 of the Enyimba team but now i cant even name up to 3 players. Ask the most Die hard NPFL fan here to name 5 players from his favorite club and see if he can. |

Noah Bazee is still out injured but on the recovery train already.... He is expected to return from injury on Sept 28. I believe he is still in Rohr's plans... very much in Rohr's plans but need to return and join his Hannover teammates in making a strong bundesliha campaign statement. Hannover is doing just fine so far. Icon4s: |

Some Words of Amaju Pinnick on Tammy's Expected switch “I had a very honest and productive discussion with Tammy and his father last week. “It’s been a long process but I can tell you authoritatively that he has agreed to play for Nigeria and not England. “He and his parents have started the necessary documents to effect the switch. “Clearly he understands he stands a better chance playing for the Super Eagles. With his talent he has the ability to fight for a place in the Nigeria squad, by God’s grace we make it to Russia, then he would contest for a chance to represent his fatherland.” Pinnick added: “I have said it often that my relationship with his father would help and so it was important to speak to them together. “They are happy with the prospect of playing for Nigeria. “Of course everyone in England can see what Victor Moses and Alex Iwobi have gone on to achieve with Nigeria. “We must wait because it is not so straightforward with Fifa. But the important thing is that we have made a big capture by getting Tammy.” Source: http://www.mirror.co.uk/sport/football/news/tammy-abraham-chooses-play-nigeria-11212909 |

I still believe in that lad.... I named him The Beast and he must live up to it whether anyone like am or not.... He is far more technically gifted, far more skillful and offers more danger going forward than Aaron Samuel... I would rather take him over Aaron in a heartbeat. Icon4s: |

Tammy is as good as gotten and dusted. The deal on him switching has kicked off. He is convinced. I think we have bagged Tammy. As for Dessers... he will get his call-up soon I believe to ward off Belgium but for now Tammy na priority and also among the likes of Dessers, Success or Aaron, Success will offer more now if ever there is a need for an extra body from outside the regulars to come in and do some damage. Dessers is still a newbie but is quality but remember this is the Super Eagles. Aaron is not it for now. But Success is always a danger man. His build and skillset is just enough to fit in with the team. Rohr still rates Success and I do too and he is still useful to the team. Hope he can sort out his club game time soon enough or make a good move if need be but his quality is not in doubt. If Rohr invites him I have no major complaints. Humility017: |

Kog45:Oga kog45 hahahaha hahahaha. We have had our own deplorable tournament waste men(to borrow komekn). During Nigeria 99 we had one fake defender Ikena Eneh Sydney 2000 we had Ogbonna Kanu Korea /Japan we had Ogbeche and Furo Iyenemi Brazil 2014 was the worst with Uchebo and Gabriel dem I just pray that with the talents we have at our disposal now we would( when we qualify by God's grace) go with a solid squad. |
Re: "The Super Eagles Thread: The Road To AFCON 2023, 2025 And 2026 World Cup by TheSuperNerd(m): 3:18pm On Sep 21, 2017 |
Class is permanent. Success is one player who doesnt need to make noise. His feet does the talking. His fitness and match sharpness, yes... these are issues that are being pondered on because of his lack of or little game time for now but will rather choose him over Aaron. Dessers will get his chance and invite soon I believe. Even Onuachu, Bonaventure, Olayinka, Samuel Kalu etc still dey wait for call-ups... so Dessers should keep doing his thing. But I hope Belgium dont play vultures like England... because Belgium get ample choices for attack. Pray they don't take notice of Dessers before Rohr gives him his chance. Anyhow shaa... Tammy is the priority now. Hopefully Dessers (dutchgerian) and a few quality others of Anglo-Nigerian links will follow. P.S: You have no idea how long I have known the bolded... ![]() Icon4s: |
