Just the way your chinko fone spell Neymar

Itsagoal:
There is no need to cry over split milk. The coach has selected and that is it, we can not add but he can subtract from the list. I don't understand why some of us are still talking about players that are not on the list. Lets go out there and support our team, good or bad. Up Eagles.

Aina is not Babayaro, and this is not 10 years ago, this guy has footballer sense and I think he will complement our midfielders and forward players well. Positives, he can give us the long throw advantage, he has height, can actually play midfield, hence a wing back.

goldfish80:


Come on! This is double standards. You hounded me for mentioning Osas who has better of any of these qualities you mentioned. You clearly love Aina and you're giving him a free pass.

tbaba1234:


That is Victor Ezeji's position. He is not even talking about London, he is talking about the final list.

Rohr has decided on taking 25 players to London. If Lokosa was not already on that list before the match, it means another player has to be dropped to accommodate him.

Iheanacho had a poor game even though he had the assist for Ekong's goal. Can you on the basis of that poor game, drop Iheanacho when you know what he can do?

I think, we need to see Lokosa again in another game but we can do that now or after the WC. I remember Lukmon Haruna scoring and having a great friendly games before disappearing in the WC proper.

Forget sentiments about trying to promote the league, that should not even be under consideration now. The national team is not there to promote the league.

Joebie:
I want to know why a certain Maarouf Yussuf who plays in the Egyptian Premier league, was not given another look in at LB. He's had a great run of games so far this year. Look at his stats. And he is a left-footer for that matter.

Naughtytboy:
Guys lucosa played out of position was due to the fact rohr wanted to see if he could replace simeon meaning the coach likes him .the fact is lucosa stands no Chance with the likes of ighalo and simy even at the moment ighalo Isn't sure if he's going to be in the ist 11 with the spark simy showed against Congo. Moreover with the stature lucosa has he should be able to play as a winger take the likes of Suarez, salah, Messi even musa can play as a striker. So u guys should stop saying he was played out of position. You can't have two powerful forwards like simy and ighalo and be expecting lucosa to have a shirt.

tbaba1234:


Ola Aina is not a bad player like that na!!

He is good offensively but has defensive frailties. He is the best crosser among the fullbacks. I do not think, we have even seen the best of him for Nigeria. Even if he does not make the WC, he has a future with Nigeria.

tbaba1234:


Rohr invited him and was not impressed with him apparently.

MetalJigsaw:
I don't think this man watched the match

Joebie:
I don’t know why we won’t call a spade a spade. Aina has done nada despite the chances he’s gotten. He’s battling against Echiejile for goodness sake.

Joebie:
Na the best RB in the Championship u finish like that? Oya Komekn come and handle this oga lol

Joebie:
It’s Lokosa. So now, since he can’t replace Simon, what next? Simy replaces Simon? That your stature logic is flawed. Lokosa will not go to Russia for obvious reasons and I’m not complaining. Is anyone arguing for his inclusion here? There are clear under-performers staring at our faces. Aina, and Echiejile are not WC materials. We need to be worrying about that and not Lokosa. Lokosa’s invitation was unnecessary. Nobody expected he will score a hart-trick. Even if he did “who will we drop him for?”what I meant was, we have our two point men already even before the match against Congo reasons being that simy coming into the picture, exposure and home based factors played against him even before the match .simy can't play as a winger so he can't replace Simeon due to his stature maybe.

CaptainStephen:
Actually komekn has a point, he has always advocated we tryout more players in other to select the best. we would have been on both elderson and aina's case if we didn't try out idowu.

Joebie:
how is this relevant to what I just said?

Joebie:
Lokosa was among our good performers yesterday. He may not make the final list, but dropping him now will not be a good look .

Joebie:
It was said here that Simon's injury also strengthens Simy's case.. Simy was never going to replace Simon, since he is not winger.

@bolded, that's the point.

Luckyroro:
Sir, I hate to differ with you but trust me, I completely disagree with you on this one. If Aina gets a shirt in GWG then its out of sentiment and not merit. From the days of Babayaro, Udeze, Taye Taiwo (even Juwon Oshaniwa) You could see what is required of our LBs. Aina has got none of those qualities.

Naughtytboy:
Do you really think if simeon wasn't injured with the performance simy showed he wouldn't make the team? Your thought.simeon's injury did nothing to simy's chances

tbaba1234:


Before yesterday's game, the coach had an idea of who he was going to drop. There were no outstanding performers in my view to change his opinion. Lokosa did very well but not enough to force the coach to review his list in my opinion.

Even Simy Nwankwo's case has been aided by Moses Simon's injury but he also offers something different.

nextlevel2222:


Is Ola Aina and Chidozie play the same position? He is competing with echiejile to deputies Idowu for the left back position. I feel Aina is better option than Echiejile

MetalJigsaw:
I think he should take Simon's place on the premise that he's versatile.

tbaba1234:
If Simon Moses second scan is positive, what happens to Simy? Would a midfielder have to be dropped?

forgiveness:



Aina is not a LB. He's a RB.

Though I don't trust him for the job now but I think his talent is very obvious.

He plays with more confidence and his passing skill is really good.

With time, he can improve and be like Taye Taiwo who also attack minded but me go go with Echiejile for WC.

Maybe the red carpet was rolled out to wean him over from England. Lots of promises must have been made. That could explain his lackadaisical attitude or maybe he was never that good afterall.
If he was home based, his SE career will have been over by tongue twisters here. Rohr will have my respect if he has the balls to drop him.
