double standards bro. when its Nacho they say it was lack of preseason that caused it

forgiveness:


Does Rohr knows all the Nigerian players abroad?

Probably, some Nigerians are the ones suggesting players to Rohr.

In that case, he doesn't stand a chance.

So you don't think that the NFF has a list of all the Nigerian players playing professionally overseas that they had supplied to Gernot Rohr? Oh boy, please give it a break!

To hear you talk about Kayode, someone may be mistaken to think that you're talking about a Lionel Messi or something

lexyman:




all these players you mentioned are doing well in their respective club , not just club , but one of the best league in the world .... if Martins is doing that magic in Everton , that is lowly rated among the club those players yoy mentioned played ... sincerely all of us with want him .

Martz101:


I'm a Nigerian and I love to see Nigeria player do well, so I wish he get playing time, but then again our player find it difficult making good choice

komekn:


The core issue is not league but the issue of performance ability related to age. There are some here who are way to quick to dismiss players just on age. That's the question ❓

You are expanding the issue keep it in context.

The issue of age becomes more contentious considering we do not have automatic birth data capture. So we shouldn't be bothered about having the youngest team.

tbaba1234:


Does NFF have such a list?? I do not think the NFF knows all Nigerians playing abroad.. At least not in any organized way.

Icon79:
Well, they should if they didn't. I mean, I can understand if they miss a few foreign born players, but getting such record should be at the top of their priority.

Forget that, Ajagun has passed his prime
Only a miracle will give him a slot in 70 man list

Put thiose rankings in your trash. It doesn't always add up. Today Nigeria is ranked below 40 in the world. Can u beat your chest and say all the teams above us in the rankings will beat us. Similarly you cannot say a player is better than another just only because of the league they play. Put those rankings in the trash. While rankings can be a good reference point sometimes,
but it does not hold most times in reality.
Would Kayode even manage to score a goal in Serie A? -- Let me use ur overplayed logic, what was Kayode doing at age 19?

forgiveness:


Let me boast a little.

I don't think as a boy who grew up in a family that boast of the first Professor of Medcine, the first Nigerian to earn BA degree abroad as an external student in Nigeria, first Nigerian to open an Indigenous Bank in Nigeria etc is interested or believes in Federal character but I am humble and despite no one.

I haven't even said anything.

[b]The problem with Nigerian players is that we rarely improve, [/b]musa could have worked on his finish and footwork and Sadiq can improve his physique, they are all comfortable to be mediocre

I am very suprised at you making that kind of sweeping statement. See the bold.

Tell me one nation in the past 40 years that has won the world cup that was not ranked in the top 10

Tell me one club that has one tye champions league that it's league was not ranked in the top 10.

In actual fact in both permutations it's more like top 5 as opposed to top 10.

Have no doubt top players will play in top leagues and top clubs eventually.

Reality what is your reality. Tell me one not two just one please, player who has a rating that is not reflective of his standing that we have in thier current club.

Your descriptive diction (most times) is very sweeping and totally misleading. You seem to have little appreciation of this science of football analysis.

Of course there will be exceptions but broadly speaking rankings are indicative of the reality. That's why it's possible that a team that is ranked well below us can beat us and vice versa. After all what was south Africa ranking when they played us.

andrew444:


Kayode will not go to the World Cup you can rant as you like,there was a time you where quiet,but seems the guy scored his first shaktar your ranting has began again.

Keep on doing campaign for Yoruba players,I thank God you are not part of the coaching crew.

You will never speak of a Samuel kalu or a fit onyekuru,but you will rant over a kayode who is trying to get back to form,keep on ranting ? What about seyi ojo? Have you forgotten about him so soon ?

Icon79:
Not sure whether you remember that they tried the same thing with Clemence Westerhof just before the 1994 World Cup. Nigeria has a problem!

Dedebanky85:
Are u listening to what you are saying? I don't know how we rationalize things and I have no bias for any player. I say it as it is. How would you say Ajagun has passed his prime when his mates are still very much active in the SE and we are hoping they invite the other. Omeruo, Shehu, Agbo and Kayode are all Ajaguns mate but you insist Ajagun has passed his prime. Hmmmm God is watching some of us.

forgiveness:

Typical Nigerian, never agree he is wrong.
As you wish others, may God treat you likewise in double folds.

INTERVIEW TYRONNE EBUEHI: DREAMS OF EUROPEAN FOOTBALL AND THE WORLD CUP

Few players could count on as much attention in January as Tyronne Ebuehi. Would he or could not leave at ADO Den Haag? Despite great interest from Benfica, the right back still remained in The Hague. He is assured of playing time there. And that is important to him in view of the World Cup.

It can go fast. Those words are absolutely applicable to Ebuehi's career at the moment (22). A year and a half ago, the Haarlemmer finally managed to play definitively in the ADO Den Haag team. A few months later his good play was noticed in the country of his father, Nigeria. After having been in the selection of the 'Super Eagles' for the first time in March 2017, Ebuehi debuted on June 1 in a friendly match against Togo. In November, the right back played his second international match against the Argentine powerhouse, in which he left an excellent impression. Nigeria even won 4-2. The stormy development of Ebuehi seemed to be rewarded in January with a transfer to Benfica, which eventually ended.

Development

Ebuehi is not the type to go to float after all those beautiful performances. But he can not deny that he has had a good time."A year ago I did not dare to think that I would get the attention of such a big club and play in the national team, it could indeed go fast in football, I see it as a result of daily working hard to get better, that's already paying off, but I'm not there yet, I have to keep developing myself, I have not finished at ADO Den Haag yet. playing the viewer for the World Cup.

Joebie:
He is Nigeria's Messi - fast legs

Icon79:
Haha!! But unfortunately for him, he failed to live up to that billing when he was given an opportunity to break into the team.

Now, he would have to go to the back of the line and wait for his turn.


O pari

Joebie:
I really do hope he comes good if/when Rohr gives him another opportunity so Oga forgivesness could shut us up. Lol

Icon79:
Same here. I feel the same way, but that's not gonna happen until after the World Cup tho. I don't see him making this world cup team ... so forgiveness/komekn can cry us a river if he wants.
