May this not go the 'Tammy' way.
Tammy is a new English word meaning disappointing or heart breaking. As used in this sentence; That guy tammied us or with all our efforts on him, he tammied us.

Lol.

Will the world end after the WC? I don't know but we are saying catch them now before they become better players.

Manuel - Akanji is already gone and we cannot afford to miss these ones, especially Uduokhai, Ilori and Adarabioyo because they are exceptional good.


However, going to the world Cup, if Akpoguma, Uduokhai and Adarabioyo agrees to play for Nigeria then it is certainly certain that Awaziem and Kenneth Omeruo's place are up for grab.

Uduokhai is only regular amongst the German boys and i don't think Adarabioyo can get into our squad now but may be in the future if he is willing but must be a good and promising player to always make the city bench as CB..

If Uduokhai,Akpoguma,Torunarigha,Irofa and Adarabioyo can say yes then future is guarantee especially in centre back

I am not sure height should be necessary here. Enyeama the best GK that Africa has ever produced wasn't exactly a man-mountain. Casillas, the best GK in the early 2000s wasn't that tall either. Then Oliver Kahn, the best GK ever was hardly taller than 6'1, not exactly tall in this sense
Oliver khan best gk ever? Who awarded him that distinction?

Truly height should not be the main thing but remember Berti Vogts went for height and picked Ejide over better Enyeama.

Apart from height i don't think Uzoho and Alampasu are better than Ajiboye but am suspecting Rohr want them tall.

Well, someone said he is a wack player but I don't have any problem with another man's humble opinion.

I know he is a good player after seeing him played in the UEFA Champions League and FA cup.

Apart from Ezenwa, Faleye, Itodo and Ifeanyi, everyone else is ready to go. Peter Eneji is back recovered and ready to go in the finals. Taking an injured player to a tournament is one of the biggest gambles I have ever heard of in football but if he plays a big role tomorrow Salisu and his crew will look like geniuses I guess.

The players should not feel that they have done enough because that would be a disservice to themselves. I have always maintained that what most these African leagues have over us is their management and not their players. Our boys must know their worth and go for gold. Our WAFU cup defeat to Ghana all of a sudden becomes a blessing in disguise because our guys would not want to relive that nightmare again.

The pressure that had followed the Super Eagles since our draw against Rwanda has suddenly transferred to Morocco. IMO if their game against Libya had gone into PKs they would have lost because barring their goals they really played nonsense. Our boys will thrive under much lesser pressure being that most feel that making it this far is fair enough. We shall defeat Morocco.

Of course, Uduokhai, Akpoguma, Torunarigha and Iorfa Jnr are all good and could add quality to the National team.

However, I don't think switching German based players will be difficult. The only issue is Adarabioyo.


Has he agreed to play for us?

This is the best time to lure him to play for us.

So if the player is good but is not getting the right opportunity due to one factor or the other. We just saw a case of Ajiboye not given a sniff in looking in until the foreign trainer came and screened some keepers. Even if we set up a team b and a regular program with the U23 and U21, we need to make room for real Outstanding talents to work with the Senior team.

They must not make the final list but have the high quality training of the National team to help improve them.

Contrary to the point you tried to make that lots of promising talents fail along the line, a lot of promising talents became top quality.

From Fabregas, Iniesta, Xavi, Pique, Pedro, Ronaldinho, Ronaldo De Lima, Romario, Pele, Maradona, Diego Forlan, Kaka, Robinho, Neymar, David Silva, De Bruyne, Fernandinho, Tevez, Figo, Michael Owen, Lampard, Beckham, Paul Scholes, Pirlo, Sanchez, Vidal, Kanu, Casillas and many more.

So, we must play our part in a lot of ways. A hand holding program in the Senior team is one of the ways. Look at the likes of Gabriel Jesus, Neymar and Lucas Moura who broke into their Senior National team in their teens. Do you think Brazil did not have quality experienced names to fill those slots?

Osimhen and the Nwakalis' cases are quite different. They are not currently in the team not because anyone is blocking them but simply because they are currently not up to the mark.

On Dele Ajiboye I saw from a previous post where you said he was ignored all these years. So we should have swept aside Enyeama, Ejide and Ayenugba? He was no where near these guys then.


Take a look at that list of great players you mentioned, how many were MVPs and Golden boot winners at U17? Most of them Stared at the U20.

At the U20 level players that will end up as world class would have already started showing the traits.
The U20 and U21 tournaments for European countries are more important but for us we underrate the U20 and that is why we have always failed at that age level.

If Osimhen had probably done what he did at U17 at the U20 oh then no doubt no one can dispute his stardom.

Even, Awoniyi, Iheanacho and Yahaya were dwarfed when they featured at the U20 compared to what they did at U17.


An U21 team will give these young players better opportunity to develop and get selected for the Main Super Eagles.

This place is gradually turning to a creepy theatrical home where the most queer of opinions are dropped.

Yesterday I read a post from a certain Andrew calling one of the most coveted U20 defenders(Uduokhai) in Europe's top five leagues bellow average.

Today, forgiveness came with a bang, it reads "if Akpoguma and Adarabioyo of all defenders, turn up, Awaziem's (another top, highly rated and coveted U20 defender in one of Europe's top five leagues) place in Eagles is up for grabs.

Don't even know how best to describe "Somehow's" opinion when he ignorantly seconded Andrew's assertion whereas he didn't even know who uduokhai was neither had he seen him play, next, he showed how bereft he was of the info about the guy in question when he became comic by alluding that Uduokhai was same person as Akpoguma.

Either of this two "Andre and somehow" even asked that we allow the FBs become world class before we poach them, lol I was like Chai, just the way we allowed Alaba and Dele Alli become world class abi? Besides, our team is filled with world class players grin people and their opinions sef grin

U people are too much and I must commend those who take their time to quote and correct this kinda people with weird opinions. Left for me, na to just read and pass grin
