Only a JJC in Nigeria will dismiss these allegations off the hand. Recall how Emeka Ezeala and Berti Vogts ran things back in 08.
Hopefully, we get to know the real truth behind all the allegations but I wouldn't be surprised if the allegations were true because almost every expatriate coach in Africa get involved in one way or the other with human trafficking player agency.

Perhaps, if it came from a more reliable source. But given the history of ANS fabricating stories, i'd take it with a healthy dose of salt.

I don't really trust ANz but for an agency to have 7 to 8 players in a team look somehow,hope it will not have negative effect on the team especially mundial selection.

Simon Moses changed his agent and all of a sudden, ANS starts attacking Simon Moses. It is starting to add up now.

I think, it is an agent war been fought through ANS. Tony Harris has lost his influence in the national team.

Please, please... let us not go down the route again... Scoring in the Nigerian league means absolutely nothing.
Every player is not the same bro. He deserves a chance. 14 goals in 14 games is very impressive.
Accept it or not, every player is different. His eploits might not be a flashvin the pan as you might think.

two fine assists from crosses and a pair of headers from Mario Mandzukic. Goals like this can make a difference, which is why we need players like Samuel Kalu, and a point man that can also finish with the head. We should always have this option our team.

Rohr Forcing Nigerian Players To Sign Contracts For World Cup Spots, DW Sports Agency Breaches Fifa Rule

Rohr Forcing Nigerian Players To Sign Contracts For World Cup Spots, DW Sports Agency Breaches Fifa Rule
Allnigeriasoccer.com can exclusively report that Super Eagles manager Gernot Rohr may be involved in some underhand dealings that will jeopardize the chances of the national team performing well at the 2018 World Cup.

The German is imitating Nigeria 1994 World Cup coach Clemens Westerhof, who forced Emmanuel Amuneke to sign for Duisburg and coerced Daniel Amokachi to join Club Brugge over Anderlecht who were also interested in his services.

There are rumours that Rohr has joined forces with DW Sports Management to force Super Eagles players to sign representative agreements with the French-based agency or be omitted from the roster for the World Cup.

It is confirmed that Rohr visited Ahmed Musa and Moses Simon in Russia and Belgium respectively and few months later the two wingers joined the stable of DW Sports Management.

This website can confirm one hundred percent that the Gent winger was financially induced by DW Sports Management before he penned the representation contract and will pocket a percentage of the commission if he joins a new club after leaving Belgium and this is a breach of Fifa's rules banning third parties from influencing the transfer of players.

Bursaspor defender William Troost-Ekong was also approached to join DW Sports Management but he refused their overtures despite Rohr surprisingly handing him the captain's armband against Poland last month in a pre-World Cup friendly.

DW Sports Management also handles the affairs of Henry Onyekuru, Mikel Agu, Oghenekaro Etebo, Brian Idowu and Abdullahi Shehu, bringing the total number of World Cup bound players they manage to seven and counting.

English-based agent Tony Harris influenced the naming of Reuben Gabriel, Michael Uchebo, Ahmed Musa and Uche Nwofor in Nigeria's 2014 World Cup squad and the national team lacked a quality bench in the mundial, they struggled to qualify for the last sixteen before they were eliminated.

In the light of the foregoing, Rohr and DW Sports Management's antics will affect the Super Eagles performance in Russia if they are not cautioned by the Nigerian Federation.

Please this news is so fake..of course someone like you would believe this kind of story.

This kinda story start to surface when ppl can't get their own players in the team and they result to tarnishing the coaches image..

This same report said Moses simon had incentive of extra money to join this new agency and that right there is the reason for their change..

They should find better evidence...this is so useless story..

What is really interesting is the tactical input for both crosses. Mandzukic is positioned at the far post for both crosses, taking advantage of the full backs as opposed to competing with the CBs. This is the kind of tactical genius that people do not always notice.

The person crossing the ball knows to aim for the far post each time.

it's a pin point cross, the receiver knows where it would land, and he knows just what to do with it.. I believe it's one of their routines in practice sessions. Why do we lack this stuff in our games?

By the way, it's Madrid 3-3 Juve (aggregate)

3 crosses, 3 goals... Look at the positioning for each cross... It is obvious that they have been working on crossing... It is something that Nigeria needs to work on.

And what happened to the 5 of them? How many of them was kicked out by Spanish team? I guess Chelsea won Barcelona and man u won sevilla

You guys re quick to take a gibe at man city,but sorry they are dominating the premier league and i can bet you that they will win the premier league next season.

Now since you say nobody can dominate England,why cant england dominate Europe? seems you said premier league team are the best I guess England has been dominating Europe for the past 6 years and not spain.

Now which league has the highest number of team in the quarter final? Barcelona Sevilla Madrid? But that does not matter anyway.

And i am not bad belle i am telling you what is right,England are not the best and you know it.


Now you are the bad belle always calling for irrelevant players to be invited to the super eagles,
the prove is here on this thread

Not surprised as usual Mr Komekn....Your matter na Moi Moi.....Rest

It's important to know that the EPL is widely acclaimed as the best league in the World. My view is that it is the most competitive that it's one of the best is beyond dispute but best is a matter of preference.

It's like the never ending discourse of who is better Messi or To Ronaldo.

If you were not carried away by your emotive prejudice and befuddled bad belle. You should have the courage to state these IRRELEVANT players specifically by name, I have called for and let's discuss, dissect and conclude on figures and substantive facts. But of course you will not, you will hide behind evasive rhetoric with no substance.

Name them one by one, if u get liver, kidney and heart.

You win. Big European clubs scout in Africa as much as they scout in South America and Europe. In fact Africa is indeed a hot cake for poaching talents.
Who in their right sense can argue with the litany of names you have listed.
And yes, Dortmund are rubbish in scouting.
Happy now?

Dortmund ain't rubbish in scouting and is not a competition of who win

Actually there were two Nigerian international players in that match and one possible in Tomori.

And I needed to see the game live. So a one hour ➕ drive for a late kick off was not too bad.

You make claims that you can't defend because they are anchored on thin air.

For how long has Musa been our winger? Tell me three crosses he has delivered for eight years that resulted in goals? Only three crossess in eight years,,tell me..We have seen three crossess and three goals in Juve vs Madrid
Re: "The Super Eagles Thread: The Road To AFCON 2023, 2025 And 2026 World Cup by gamaliel9: 10:27pm On Apr 11, 2018
We cannot take somebody to the world cup because he has been with the team for long...thats sentiments..because he has stayed long in the team..but his "experience"[if he has one] does not benefit his team. How has this supposed experience uplifted his team? When i see Musa,i feel like someone who thicks he has money in his pocket,after travelling long distance,on arrival at home,he sees that his pocket is empty...Its now i realised that he has been all puff and hufff..no stuff...perhaps we managed him because we had no quality replacements after Finidi and Tijani Babangida..but now quality is coming round the bend----Samuel Kalu, K. Onyekuru etc


Just tell me three crossess in his eight year sojourn in Eagles that were headed into a goal...

For more than three years now, I av been hammering on Musa and Simon's deficiencies that have been costing us but most people thought I was hating on them. Those two guys are no cerebral wingers and they av got nothing positive to offer the Eagles. Two crap wingers that can neither cross nor give that final pass to save their lives respectively.

Has he(Tomori) been performing or is it because of just one good game?

To bench who?

Ebuehi? Aina? or Shehu?

At 20 he has not played up to 25 league games and you are calling for his inclusion.

Moses simon can't cross but the last goal Kalu scored with his head was from whose cross?

Besides, if they are crap players, can you please recommend the better crosser of the ball and prove why they are better with facts?

Can you please let us know how many assists those players gave with their crosses?
