MetalJigsaw: Three stars for you. Rohr has created game changers but he keeps downplaying it...he is a good psychologist.. No 1 game changer-Mikel Obi No 2 game changer- Victor Moses No 3 could be Joel Obi if he is allowed to attack more 1 Like |

Martz101:you're trying to say that according to Komekn since Omeruo couldn't be signed permanently by Middlesborough even though he helped them to the premiership because he is not good enough that Aluko is not good enough that's why Hull city didn't retain him 3 Likes |

gamaliel9: That is not enough to conclude the trio is the best combo. Why do you have to exclude the two Obi's? Are they not part of the team? The Ogu, Ndidi, Onazi trio is a defensive one and can only be used to secure a lead. You cannot start a game with that kind of combo. 4 Likes |

REDEMPTION TIME: 5 Super Eagles Stars Who Need To Shine Vs Serbia 5 March 26, 2018 11:09 am Ahead of Tuesday’s friendly against Serbia, Completesportsnigeria.com’s ADEBOYE AMOSU lists five Super Eagles players who need a big performance to redeem themselves and cement their spots in the squad for Russia 2018 after below-par showings against Poland… LEON BALOGUN Hailed for his formidable partnership with William Troost-Ekong during the qualifiers, the Mainz of Germany centre-back has struggled to impress in the Super Eagles’ last two games. No wonder he was hauled off in the 4-2 friendly win against Argentina last November and the situation repeated itself on Friday with Kenneth Omeruo replacing him after another below-par outing. With the likes of Chidozie Awaziem, Stephen Eze and Omeruo knocking on the door and hoping to secure starting berths ahead of the World Cup, Tuesday’s game against Serbia offers the towering defender a big chance to redeem himself and secure his place in the team. BRYAN IDOWU The Amkar Perm of Russia left-back had a memorable debut, scoring Nigeria’s third goal in the 4-2 win against Argentina last November. He was praised for his all-round display in the game and touted as possible replacement for regular left-back Elderson Echiejile. Idowu however failed to live up to the high ratings against Poland and was way off the high standards he set in his previous outing and also at club level. It is difficult to see him start against Serbia with Ola Aina and Echiejile also fighting for the same position. Should he get the nod ahead of the duo again, Idowu will need to better his performance against Poland to prove he is the right man for the position. JOEL OBI Plagued by injuries in recent years, the Torino of Italy midfielder was handed the chance to stake a claim for a place in the team ahead of the mundial against the Poles. Though he didn’t do his chances any harm following a battling display in the middle of the park, with the likes of Mikel Obi, Wilfred Ndidi, Oghenekaro Etebo and Mikel Agu ahead of him in the pecking order, Joel could make do with another chance and a top-notch display to prove he is worthy of a place in the World Cup squad. TYRONNE EBUEHI Still considered as second choice to Shehu Abdullahi, the ADO Den Haag right-back showed his class when he was introduced after break in the friendly win against Argentina in what was his debut game for the Super Eagles. He was decent too after replacing the same player against Poland, but he will need to offer more to displace Shehu from the spot. He might get the chance to finally prove his worth against Serbia on Tuesday with Shehu Abdullahi looking doubtful for the game after picking up an injury against Poland. KELECHI IHEANACHO An inconsistent performer on the international scene, Kelechi Iheanacho despite his quality and versatility has not consistently proved he is worthy of a regular berth in the team. He was poor against Poland on Friday and might need to take his chance against Serbia if at all he gets to feature in the game to show he is still a force to reckon with in the team. https://www.completesportsnigeria.com/redemption-time-5-super-eagles-stars-who-need-to-shine-vs-serbia/ |

forgiveness: Mr know much,so super eagles qualified ndidi to play in the Epl? Then you must be the biggest joker of the century ? Do you know how many scout watch the Belgium league ? So the scout that make leichester get ndidi watch super eagles qualifier in calabar ? Away to Zambia ? And in yaounde and in Algiers ? Seems you say national team make him move to the premier,Mr man you are the bigger joker in this thread and have no clue of what you are saying. You think say na super eagles cap dey make them buy player ? Did Isaac success played for super eagles before he earned a record transfer to watford? Bros you no get wetin you wan talk,I will prove it over and over again Ndidi has not played more than 3 times for Nigeria before he joined leichester. His Belgium league appearance earned him leichester city move same thing goes to his jamaican team mate who is yet to even play international football,his name is Leon bailey. What about onyekuru,say na super eagles appearance make Everton buy am ?? 4 Likes |

MetalJigsaw:I disagreed with this guy submission on Balogun,against Poland he had a great match and was replaced due to knock. Just watched the same Poland match again,Balogun was massive and at par with Ekong until he got substituted. I'm really surprised this is coming from complete sports. 11 Likes 2 Shares |

forgiveness: Is ndidi a striker for you to compare him to onyekuru? Work permit issues stop onyekuru,leichester city register ndidi as a special talent for him to get work permit,success was also given work permit,did success play for super eagles before his move to watford ? You are asking me what qualified ndidi to play in the Epl ? Okay what qualifies success to play in the Epl ? 2 Likes |

Re: "The Super Eagles Thread: The Road To AFCON 2025 And 2026 World Cup by Loogan(m): 2:36pm On Mar 26, 2018 |
forgiveness:Onyekuru issue was work permit, I think his only undoing is his low transfer fee. I'm sure he would be in Everton next season if the club pushes for his stay under the "special talent" category. Ndidi was already qualified to play in England because of his high transfer fee, he didnt have to have played for the national team, the transfer fee was enough evidence for the FA to know he was quality another way young players can gain work permit. So it's not as simple as you make it sound. |

TheSuperNerd: We should evolve beyond using The Hive for our matches. With the vast support base of the Eagles in London, a capacity of 5,176 is grossly inadequate. Even in terms of revenue, the NFF is losing so much. The Super Eagles is now an exciting brand and the NFF should be creative in milking it. It's the same lapses we see with the Jersey. People want to buy now, and you say you will only make it available when you want to. Doesn't work that way. 5 Likes 1 Share |
