BascoVanVeli:The reason behind Iheanacho vs Kayode rivalry here is what we do accuse forgiveness of whereas some were guilty of the same accusations(TRIBALISM) better for us to always show love to our players,happy for Iheanacho,good for him cos the challenges was overwhelming but coming out to shake it off with good performance is awesome,hope he replicate the performance in EPL. 6 Likes |

AIG07: Both Verdy and Okazaki are aging, Slimani believes he has reached his Peak, hence does not want to rot on the Bench or keep playing second fiddle to Verdy. Iheanacho is still developing, he's in the right Club, under the right Manager and with Time he's gonna be indispensable in the Team. 1 Like |

Nacho stepped up his game yesterday and justified his inclusion in the team which is exactly what I said and I know he's far beyond what he's exhibiting in Leicester. The dude needs to keep his head down work hard and grab every opportunity he gets. If he keeps playing regularly then he's going to turn heads at the WC 1 Like |

Icon4s:What a wonderful comment so far,the next match in EPL would determine may be Puel really have faith in Nacho cos i want to see him consolidating on his Fleetwood performance. I'm happy seeing Nigerians especially on this thread showing great love to Nacho,this is what we want irrespective of the players especially potential Eagles WC players. 4 Likes |

Icon4s: this is not how the system works and you know that. For example two seasons ago Munir was the highest goalscorer in the Copa Del Rey, no need pointing out where he is currently. This season Arnaiz has scored against all but one Copa Del Rey opposition he has faced, but that isn't exactly something to celebrate, just like we say that if someone kills a chicken we nod, if they kill a goat we clap and if they kill a cow we stand up. This is just killing a chicken, I understand that it is good for the young man's confidence but making it sound as if all the other games where he failed to perform is because of the coach or the system just because he scored twice against Fleetwood does not make sense. That is just the point, he still needs to be consistent, we saw the same flash against Leeds and where did it lead us to? Another dead end, I do hope this one leads to better things but until then... |

jihday: maybe you failed to get the point. He came in then and did nothing for 10 straight minutes, the next day theGoodJoe was here telling us how Puel is a inferior to the Bristol manager, now days later the same Puel is the coach and Nacho has performed but nobody wants to sit down and understand that his past failings was his fault entirely instead of blaming the coach, the system and even the club president and fans. 1 Like |

I just feel pity for Ahmed musa ![]() Whenever I remember his beautiful brace against Argentina; I feel for him. Dude might not go to worlcup cos of lack of playtime. Leicester coach doesn't know how to rotate squad. Am sure despite yesterday's performance iheanacho will still chop bench, probably the coach will have no choice but to use him for cup matched 3 Likes 1 Share |

Oasis007: brilliant, I didn't know there was still some rational minds left here. Iheanacho has a bad game, Puel is the worst manager in the Epl, his system sucks, Leicester City sucks blablabla. When Iheanacho performs against Leeds and Fleetwood, he is world class, his talent is unrivalled, he can play anywhere across the frontline etc etc. Nobody wants to come to terms with the fact that maybe, just maybe some of his failings are his fault. Nobody has come out to praise the coach or the system since yesterday oh 1 Like |

Mickael2: I rate Lee Johnson over Puel any day, any time because there is nothing like negativity attached to Lee Johnson's game. He sets up his team to play in a brave fashion even against a top Premier League side. Unlike Puel who got sacked due to his negative style. I am glad Puel is showing signs of bravery in recent games. Gerrit? 5 Likes |

somehow: The role is not the challenge but creating of chances. Nacho buries chances. In the game against South Africa, he made brilliant runs playing as a top striker but the midfield failed to feed him. In the first goal he scored Fleetwood, Nacho was ahead of Slimani when Slimani gave him the pass. Nacho was with two defenders and still buried it. The role is not Nacho's problem but supplies and a good offensive system. Then you will see Fireworks. 5 Likes |

Maybe regular play in the U23 team is enough to keep him fit for Russia? Maybe the trainings are enough too just as some said not having regular playtime doesn't stop you from being a good or fit player. So we can as well use that yardstick for Musa too. Only God knows the content of their contracts! ClumsyFlimsy: |

Mickael2: I understand you perfectly. I am not one of those that will point hate fingers at you for your comments about Iheanacho Cos i have been on the opposing side on the Iheanacho debate in times past so I understand you want the best for him. The fact that he scored twice yesterday shows that he still has it. Let's just be happy for him and wish both him and the coach carry it on from there. But I doubt he will experience any significant improvement in terms of playing time. I still feel he needs to move. 5 Likes |

somehow:U23 team?who are the people saying is enough, pls don't be deceived by some guys double standard here,they always saying that to protect their players. Pls would Brazil,Spain,Germany even Iceland takes players playing for U23 team of his club to WC?I don't know why we don't face reality and always trying to bend the rules for some players and used another rules for some players. If i may ask did we show the same love and solidarity we have for Nacho to Musa,No.When Musa was having it tough a lot said he should not be called to national team but when Nacho was going through the same paths our tone changed(if he can get regular playing time with U23 is good enough)thank God the young man showed what he can do against at Fleetwood,hope to see him playing regularly for Leicester not U23 and hope Musa secure a club that guarantee him playing time. |

MetalJigsaw:In as much as most people like myself would want him in Russia. Lack of game time can still hinder him going to world cup especially if rohr decides to pick one of this young lads with regular playtime. If kayode,onyekuru and some of these smallies are available then and have regular gametime; it will be hard for Musa o, besides he hasn't had much of an impact in this rohr present eagles. How many games has he played for tour.. Musa going to russia is definitely not certain, and believe me rohr will likely drop one of these old boys and my guess is Musa |

Icon4s:Great comment(I still feel he needs to move)cos the issue now is playing time and i don't think Puel would use Fleetwood performance to rate Nacho over Vardy or Okazaki,that's just the plain truth but i would be glad if he can throw Nacho in as a starter in the next EPL match. |

Mickael2: Seem you do not know Puel is a ghost Member of this Thread?! The Pressure has gotten to him, thus he had no choice but to twist his Tactics and Formation to suit our Iheanacho style of Play. On a more serious Note, I really found it hilarious and petty when Puel was pummeled here as a bad Manager, a Racist who favors English Players to African Players. Dudes forget the same Manager is playing another Nigerian - Ndidi - week in week out. Ndidi was bought like any other Nigerians into the Team, he got his Chance(s) and grabbed it. I think Puel is confused that Ndidi is a Nigerian?! Iheanacho should stay at Leicester City and keeps honing his Skills under Puel. He shouldn't be deceived into moving to a lower League, cos that ain't gonna be a good Decision for him and his Career. |

Kog45:It's a shame really for any man to gloat over the plight of another man. This is why I had to tell Nacho critics especially those who seemed to rejoice over his situation to take it easy on the young man. So let no one rejoice over Kayode's struggle. He is a super eagles player. We pray he finds his place and succeeds. 5 Likes |

Kog45:Then you're making a mistake. Musa is a highly experienced player especially at the international scene. The SE style of play suits him and he knows it in And out. his speed and high workrate in our counter atttacking football will be a crucial asset for us in the WC. |
Re: "The Super Eagles Thread: The Road To AFCON 2023, 2025 And 2026 World Cup by Mujtahida: 10:10am On Jan 17, 2018 |
Kog45:Yes show them love irrespective of where they come from. That's the only way to destroy the tribalism thing once and forever but if we laugh and rejoice when Iheanacho succeeds but mock when Kayode fails we perpetuate tribalism and if we rejoice when Nacho fails and sing when Kayode succeeds it's still tribalism. We ought to love and show love to all our players. 3 Likes 1 Share |
