safarigirl:
true. Senegal is another team I have wanted at the world cup since they lost to CIV in 2014...very strong team and deserving of a world cup slot...

If we can have Nigeria, Egypt, Senegal, Tunisia and CIV, that will be top notch representation for Africa

do4luv14:




Lagos, my Lagos... Hmmm, if the eagles knows they cant beat an opponent, or will struggle against an opponent,

hmmm make Dem no come Lagos ooo, ,.

Mujtahida:

Not at all. I love what you doing.

komekn:


I disagree with your view on Victor Moses.

He was playing first team football for Palace at about 16/17 was doing great before bring sold to Wigan then after a reasonablly good season went to Chelsea.

And all the various loan moves. He just under Conte flourished in a new position in top class winning team.

TheGoodJoe:


Which South Africa? The South African game, Nacho suffered from poor service. Not conversion.

TheGoodJoe:


So because Machin does not want to give Kayode a credible run, he should not go to the World Cup. However, when Kayode was banging goals in Austria, he deserves a spot.

You can see that the criteria is no more on the quality of the player but favor of coaches.

Joebie:
I'm sorry to say the @bolded is a dumb statement. No insults intended.

Icon79:
Definitely the kinda players we need in the Super Eagle, not the people who wuld expect us to beg them.


Unless you're Leo Messi, we ain't gonna beg nobody.


O pari

Mujtahida:

Wetin you dey see with your korokoro eyes, you dey ask for link/source

Joebie:
It's normal for Lagosians to make such requests. Who no go like the match to take place for e backyard?
But don't cry foul if it doesn't happen. It's very normal for national teams to have a home stadium. For now, and maybe in a long time to come, it will remain in Uyo.

Joebie:
Kayode got his invitation. He still has to justify it whenever he gets invited again. I don't see how Kayode buttresses your point.
Kayode has also had a decent run in Girona. He has started once, and has been brought in from the bench every other time.

You are already talking about Kayode going to the world cup. You are way too ahead of reality.

forgiveness:


Hahahahahah! Yes ooo!

do4luv14:



most of those balls to nacho, are over-hit/long ball, yes /no

plus the opposition was different


and besides, even the best of strikers had his own bad week

forgiveness:


Explain!

do4luv14:



if that zambia g, ame was played in Lagos, and they struggled in first half, after booing, the stadia, will start emptying itself, before half time

TheGoodJoe:


You obviously left out Liverpool. Was Victor Moses quality or not when he was benching in Liverpool or when Mourinho dropped him? Club selection is not a good criteria.

Kog45:
Westerhoff added Mike Emenalo, Chidi Nwanu and dropped Nduka Ugbade and Isaac Semitoje,just two players.

forgiveness:


Where was Ajiboye when Haruna they play for Monaco and Dynamo Kiev?

TheGoodJoe:


Kayode's regular playing and goal scoring made him a precise choice for selection. He fell nicely into your criteria. That same player in a few months no more falls into your criteria.

The question is, was he the right quality for selection? Because now, that same player does not fit again.

The point is quality of the player. Not the one who the dice of luck falls on and he gets a run. We need the best quality. Not the best lucky to be selected by foreign coaches.

komekn:


It just didn't jell for him at Liverpool.

forgiveness:
[left][/left]

Hahahahahah! The point is he wasn't called when he was chopping bench. Simple.

Joebie:
My brother, he is in a whole new league. Most people will attribute his performance there to him trying to adjust. Yes, he must perform in Spain to deserve another call up. Even young Success Isaac gave a good account of himself in lowly Granada -- remember?

Joebie:
Lagosian fans should be no different from faithful fans in the stands of Munchen, London.. just name it. We have seen one of the greatest football supporters in Europe. It is well exemplified there as regards supporting their team. That Lagosian fan culture you are trying to celebrate is a backward one in my opinion. You have to stand behind your team whether they are playing badly or not. Every club or country plan to play like champions, and they should always be seen as such.

TheGoodJoe:


Sorry, I misread your point.

forgiveness:


My backyard is closer to Uyo than Lagos. I almost went to the stadium to watch the match but I don't like walking out late at night.

How will it not happen?

forgiveness:


How can Uyo be the home ground when Abuja and Lagos dey?

The fact that they took it from Lagos to Abuja and from Abuja until it got to Uyo means, they should bring it to Lagos.

He is renovating Onikan stadium and he's also planning to renovate National stadium. Politics is behind the delay of the later.

soetanoreoluwa:


He's playing in one of the best league in Africa... And where is haruna lukman Now? Atleast Ajiboye is part of the current SE players

adegwurulez:


See moses looking like;
If these children pour me water ehm, I go knock person pikin.

do4luv14:



thanks,
i don't know why some of us here don't like IGHALO,
we should be encouraging our own to improve, instead discarding, jst vos he didn't get the job done,



before, i say a player missed a chance, i always look at two tins, the supply, and opposition, cope with the pressure

Joebie:
hahaha.. How is it now sensible to clamor for our matches to be played in Lagos? If it's not for national interest sake, or personal convenience, what could it be then?
can you come clear?

forgiveness:



Backward but na for there you win your first nations cup, na for there you qualify for the first time to the world Cup, na for there we won club trophies for the first time, na for there you qualify go 1996 Olympics, na for there you reach another nations cup final etc

My friend, when did you start watching football?

komekn:

Tottenham player on loan at Villa.
