Iran under 17 is the best side in this under 17 tournament.

Backroom staff without name.. Me sef can write anything and quote backroom staff..

Yes, he benched Pantillimon. That is very impressive.

Reuben is the first choice but he is out injured. Pantillimon was brought in at the last minute to replace him but his performances have been suspect.

It takes a brave coach to rely on an 19 year old with no experience.

tbaba1234:
thegoodjoe wil love Pep Mel.

Oga forgiveness and other stakeholders don rush this thread go page 5 na waoo. Maybe by the time the world cup begins, we must have been on page 200

Icon79:
And I would let to get either one of these trio in our group:

Poland
Portugal
Russia

But trust FIFA to put us in the group of death, especially if we find ourselves in pot 3. Don't be surprised if we get this grouping:

Brazil
Italy
Korea Republic
Nigeria

or you can get:

Germany
Uruguay
Mexico
Nigeria

All I know is that if FIFA goes through to form, Nigeria should be in the group of death. Since I started following soccer, the strongest African teams almost always end up in the group of death. FIFA knows what they are doing.


O pari

Rohr has lost one game since he became manager.

But he has also topped a group made up of 4 former African champions, including the current champions.

Some people will tell us how 'untactical' he is because of the one loss but forget that he beat 3 african champions.

Ask yourself, with Siasia's team selection, will we get out of this WC group? It is not as if Siasia has not been tried at national team level. We saw how bad his team selection was at the Olympics.

A tactical side does not show the kind of atrocious defensive frailties that Nigeria showed at the olympics. Ekong and Daniel were the team's saviours several times.

Rohr is a mature manager with vast experience. He is bringing that to play in Nigeria.

For once, we do not have to deal with questionable invites and nepotism. For the forseeable future, keep the Nigerian coaches out.

Obagoal and Ighalo

PDPGuy:


I know, right. But this time, outside the top 10 Euro/South American teams, Nigeria can give any other team a run for their money.

Throwback- Even page 2000 go reach before christmas.

some had faith, some rightfully angry. page 0-5 will make most of us on here to laugh, smh, be shocked at ourselves.

Icon4s:


I know a couple of players were invited but I don't think it was up to 100.

Besides as I said before the world has advanced and is now a global village. We see these players weekly and know those that are up to the mark.
No need inviting everybody

Mickael2:


Na Forgiveness I use enter the thread, just went through the first few pages now. It seems so long ago

BascoVanVeli:
Iheanacho looks to be getting a start

daveP:
Time flies.

Iwobi will be the most consistent since page 0. Havent had a bad game himself. See how Shehu get 'haters' then, and compare to now.

Girona-fc 1-2 Villarel


Kayode olanrewaju was introduced in the beginning of second half after Girona-fc were down by 2 goals to one. He was deployed to partner the main striker though he dropped deep to the act as a SS and sometimes on the wings.

Although, I have seen him played for Girona before now but I noticed his confidence level has grown times ten.

Now, I know why Guardiola personally placed a call to him. Kayode is an all rounder forward player. He can place a through pass with a long ball, he can hold the ball, dribble, defend, play many roles and he is very dangerous in the box. Above all he is a team player, not selfish and I think his pace is equal to none in the SE

However, he has some dirty tricks under his sleeves. He is very experienced and I think he should be in the world cup.

Anyway, he was very lively when he came on and he changed the game.

denniece1:

Yes, i just hope he takes this chance to become a regular starter

solonnachi:
Every player now is lobbying to play for Nigeria. Even foreign borns are reconsidering playing ie. Brian Idowu, Sheyi Ojo, Tammy Abraham etc. That's why we do not have committed players. Its only when Nigeria qualifies everybody shows interest. I'm really afraid for Nigeria at Russia.

daveP:
Better regain it. these set are diff. And with a coach that properly asesses our opponent(our prob in times past), a def that does know what to do, you should hop on. Only that they cant match that golden era like for like; they can become better than.

Empiree:
i honeslty dont know most of the current supereagle squad except celebs among them (prolly 2 or 3). I no longer pay attention to them for yrs now. They are not the "dream team" I used to.

But then, we are living in the time of "change". Maybe that may effect them
