No guarantee, i was probably reading too much into his post

TheSuperNerd:
Hmmm... probably indeed Sire... If I also go strongly by CSN's reports via contacts with the Super Eagles media officer, Toyin Ibitoye. Young Okoye seems not to be in the picture for the WC.

tbaba1234:


That does not mean, he won't be invited. The odds of him actually making the team is low but i am sure, he will get an invite.

tbaba1234:


He was visited by Agali and went to make a Nigerian passport. That points to an invite if fit.

Rohr Keeps World Cup Slots Open For Enyeama, Akpeyi; Monitors Uzoho
By David Meshioye



Super Eagles coach Gernot Rohr has stated that the goalkeeping slots in the World Cup squad are still up for grabs contrary to rumours doing the rounds that he may have made up his mind on the three goalkeepers for Russia 2018, Completesportsnigeria.com reports.
In a chat with Completesportsnigeria.com on Thursday, Super Eagles media officer Toyin Ibitoye disclosed that the former Gabon manager is leaving his options open in the goalkeeping areas of the team, adding that the likes of Vincent Enyeama, Francis Uzoho, Daniel Akpeyi, Dele Alampasu and Ikechukwu Ezenwa will have to fight for the three slots.

Enyeama, who is retired from international football, only recently recovered from a long-term injury and has been inactive for several months, while Akpeyi has not been impressive in his recent Super Eagles outings. Youngster Uzoho is no longer a part of the Deportivo La Coruna first-team squad despite impressing while standing in for injured senior keepers in LaLiga games.

“I can confidently tell you that Rohr has not made up his mind on his best three goalkeepers that will be going to the World Cup. He said Enyeama, Ezenwa, Uzoho and of course Akpeyi will have a chance to get the three slots allotted to the goalkeepers,” Ibitoye told CSN.

“He said he is leaving his options open in a bid to get the best from the goalkeepers. That is where the international friendly matches come in; Rohr will be looking at the players closely and those matches will play a huge role in determining who goes to the World Cup.”

Meanwhile, Ibitoye revealed further that Rohr is eagerly looking forward to goalkeeper trainer Enrico Pionetti’s report on his visit to Deportivo La Coruna goalkeeper, Francis Uzoho. The backroom staff is expected to brainstorm on Pionetti’s report bef ore Nigeria’s friendly match against Poland.

Russia 2018 WC Countdown: 118 days 15 hrs 57 mins to go

TheSuperNerd:
It would be nice to see him even if it is just for the feel of being with the team but I doubt he would be tested in these friendlies because these friendlies will also serve as our final real match action preps for the goalies Rohr will wanna make final decisions on.

But I won't mind being stunned with another twist from Rohr's mind...

We are here probably playing checkers with who Rohr may settle for in the Goalie position while Rohr is busy playing Chess... loolll... Really hard to tell now that Rohr still mentions an Enyeama and Akpeyi... I just tire honestly. Let the friendlies come already.

daveP:
Nawa o. Someone cannot speak in English again ni. Did I write "overhype" or what?

tbaba1234:
It appears Maduka Okoye has confirmed his invitation for March Friendlies.

Kog45:
No o i never doubt tbaba1234 reports here cos I do ask him for updates but I think visit is different from attached.

Thegoodjoe was able to.pointed this out during our discussion that probably a visit to have a tete talk with the keeper on his situation at Deportivo

I respect tbaba1234 reports here and never doubt it cos his contributions are top notch.

He was visited by Agali and went to make a Nigerian passport. That points to an invite if fit.

forgiveness:



Sammy Ameobi and some other players from England came for the screening but were later dropped.

I was not happy he was dropped for Emmanuel Sani.

solonnachi:


I just read a report that Maduka Okoye had a knee injury. Please confirm!

soetanoreoluwa:

Sammy ameobi is not doing well either

Kog45:
I thought the word HYPE mean something being done excessively,so if you believe i got you wrong,am really sorry.

TheSuperNerd:
Okay Sir.. no wahala... but I recall I was the first one who pointed out that the visit possibly had a timeline.

daveP:
Not atall. I understood you. I guess the absence of the smiley made it look like I was offended. All cool.

forgiveness:


I am talking about U20 World Cup and not U17 World cup.

Sani Emmanuel was not the highest goalscorer in the U20 World Cup.


Sammy Ameobi is doing well in the Championship.

Kog45:
OK my man respect

soetanoreoluwa:


But sani later turned to highest goals scorer.. Where is sani Now?

Sammy ameobi is not doing well either

soetanoreoluwa:


You never stated the cup.
Sammy doing well
