How do you take a hateful and despicable website like ANS serious? A website that said a Nigerian player (we all know is Moses Simon) came back with a contagious disease to Gent, a website that prides itself in doing team of the week for under-16s in England (smh), a website that always quarrels with all other websites, a website that if you give a different view on Twitter then you are blocked - you take them serious. O boy allow God use oooo. You can tell they have beef with DMW and Rohr may be close to DMW. forgiveness: 3 Likes |

ChrisKels: Consider the bolded an upgrade on Tammy. Tell me one attribute he has that's better than a Tega Abrahams. Umar is a youth player that has barely played 20 professional games in his entire career and he is 21 those are abysmal statistics. How many goals has he even scored in the Belguim league ![]() He is not SE material for now with a long way to go. He may seem physically imposing strong and fast in Belgium league. But the way he easily get bullied and is constantly falling over, I doubt if he can survive league 1 in England. He will certainly not be a stand out player. He is no where near the level of Tega. If I was to compare him to Uche Ikpeazu former Reading player now playing in league 2. Ikpeazu in the context of physicality will leave him in the dust. |

tbaba1234: This is not unusual. Ibrahimovic was once upon a time invited for trials at Arsenal. Every player must have at a period in their careers invited for trial irrespective of how talented they are presumed to be. Even the so called academy players audition before being signed. 1 Like |

Chrismario: Our league may not be the best but this comment is exaggerated because it took more than 20 years for someone to break Isaya Jatu's record of 17 goals in the league. And currently, Mfom Udoh is the league's all time top scorer with just 23 goals |

goldfish80: Academy players on trial, very normal... When a top striker in a league is on trial, it means there is little trust in that league. |

Victor Moses crossed for an assist while playing for Chelsea recently. He should be instructed to vary his play. He has it in him. Kalu will be a good inclusion, that's if he would be able to outwit either Simon or Musa eventually. How about forwards who can also use their heads? We need that option in our team. Mujtahida: |

tbaba1234: THe Nigerian league is barely on tv. Knowing that it takes over 30 games to scout a player. see:Thomas Thomas vermalean's example.
It makes makes perfect sense to request an audition to have a first hand feel of what a player is all about,expect on very rare cases (most times if a high profile agent is involved) a player could be signed straight from a less visible league without trial. Can Okputu boast of over 30 scouting tapes? It is a matter of visibility in my opinion. 1 Like |

Let's see if UEFA will be fair enough to hand Salah that Balon d'Or. If they win the UCL, it would be a big decider before World Cup of Ndidi joining the Kops. But if Papi Rohrs makes us reach the semis, clubs would fight for his signature. Semis is too much sef, round of 16will be enough for competition. 1 Like |

darkelf: U no see as I snub am dey go my way? No be everybody I dey follow argue. Ighalo scored loads of goals in his farm. He was poor in Italy, Spain and the EPL. U wanna rate him because of his exploits in the championship, the same league a poor player like Tammy was a hero? Before his injury, an aged Martins was even doing better than this so called masked man in China. With his so called exploits(loads of goals according to Dat boy Martz10), what has he done for the Eagles in a plethora of matches despite the mammoth of chances created for him to score? Ppl go just dey open mouth anyhow. |

goldfish80: That is possibly one factor but that is not all... If the NPFL players were showing top quality, clubs would not mind recruiting staff to scout in Nigeria. . If they can buy top talent for cheap and sell at a higher rate, it only helps their bottom line The truth is that several Nigerian players go abroad with top resumes from the Nigerian league but end up bang average or worse. There are several examples of this 1 Like |

tbaba1234: There are are also those who have left the Nigerian scene and became world beaters. Kanu, Okocha, Finidi, Yekini to name a few. The truth is that for NPFL clubs to get the attention of the world, the national team must do well in major international competitions. The exploits of the famous 1994 and 1996 teams put local based players on the spotlight. Should this Gernot Rohr team get to the finals of the world cup (hypothetically speakingod course). We will witness a boom in the local football industry. This is a fact |

Musa Ahmed has done few but quite important things for our football. I could vividly remember the under 20 nations cup in south Africa. Musa was menacing and when his club decided to recall him all hell went loose. This guy scored that crucial goal in Kenya that set us on the road to 2014 world cup. Against the argies at the world cup two well taken goals. Against arsenal fantastic. Musa no all our players need us to stand by them. They qualified from the most difficult group dropping just four points. Invite A today, invite B tomorrow, all those we had shouted their names for invitation what extraordinary things have they done. Nothing. Haaa Naija just cos of Serbia win over us we don they fear dey change mouth. Including myself!!! We should trust and support these guys. They will RISE UP to the occasion. |
