Baba if you judge Martins based on age and league then Mikel and Ighalo should be dropped as well.
Remember say Mikel and Psquare be set for J.town and while Ighalo's age too can be questioned. As for Martins, I was at rowepark Ebutte Metta in the 90s together with Martins and Ladi under the tutelage of BabaOmo. I can comfortably say he is just few years above what he claims and not the blotted years ascribed to him by you people drawing reference based on my on current age.



At the emboldened, not entirely true. Mikel is younger than the P square brothers. Mikel is definitely in his early thirties. I know him personally cos we went to the same primary school back then in jos

No qualms bro! Just not so happy the way guys conclude on players ages without due confirmation as to their true ages.

If Martins can still cut it, why not? As long as he does not disrupt team harmony.

LOL. Actually, let's be honest here, Portugal won the trophy without him. There's no evidence that Portugal would've won that game if Cristiano Ronaldo played the whole match. I would like to see Argentina win without Leo Messi. That's the difference, bro. One player is indispensable to his team the other player isn't grin

“The opportunity to play for Nigeria at the World Cup would, of course, have honoured me. After all, my father played for this country, too.”

“However, it quickly became clear to me that I wanted to prove myself to the DFB. I’m new to the U21 and I really want to assert myself there.”

Is it a sin to have a preference again?
We've gone past this kind of talk.. Is Torunarigha even "mixed" (biracial)?

Who told him he would make WC angry
His talk of being honored is trash, he should stick to his DFB and stop playing pranks with Nigeria

YOUNGSTER ON RAMPAGE: Chukwueze nets hat-trick in Villarreal whacking
By Ade Alabi - April 4, 2018 48 0

Nigerian-born Villarreal U-19 prolific winger, Samuel Chukwueze, has been in fine form and constantly impressing for his club side in the U-19 league, the Division de Honor Juvenil, AOIFootball.com can report.

There was no respite for UCAM Murdia U-19 as the Abia State-born youngster tore apart the defence, netting a hat-trick and making an assist in the encounter on Good Friday.

His team went on to win the match 8:3 at home and Samuel was gifted with the match day ball after the game.

The former Diamond Football Academy player and gold medalist with Nigeria’s Golden Eaglets at the 2015 U-17 World Cup in Chile, has a total of 7 goals and 9 assists in the league so far.

“It is a great feeling and I feel so happy because it’s my first hat-trick for the team,” Samuel exclusively told AOIFootball.com from his base in Spain.

Samuel is definitely one for the future and a future Super Eagles material if he continues in this feat.

Villarreal U-19 currently seat 4th on the log in the Division de Honor Juvenil.

Your captain and striker are playing in China.
I think that's one of the reason for the continous outing of the striker....

I believe had it been Ighalo was still in Europe...he would have been more potent upfront....
the Chinese league I believe don't make well for players development.
