iheanacho definitely has a lot of improving to do but i have to admit i've noticed a trend where if he plays well some monikers were too busy to see him play but when he plays badly hey presto suddenly the schedule would magically be free to see how badly KC played. SlayerForever: 7 Likes |

Super Eagles Camp Update Training venue change. Today’s training session now holds at the gym and premises of Ibom Hotel. We regret whatever inconveniences this change may have caused the media and our fans who had planned to watch the open session at the Godswill Akpabio Stadium. From @NGSuperEagles 2 Likes |

chrisooblog: If you look at it objectively,there are people who are obviously tribalistic or bias towards analyzing player performance. If those people only criticize Nacho when he has a bad game that can be overlooked because they are overtly tribalist,to the point of being silly (not that I personally have a problem with someone being tribalist if they can still use their brain).. However,that a few are tribalist does not mean the other people should worship a piss poor player to the point of cyberbullying others into resignation. That is so wrong. 2 wrongs don't make a right and I say Bleep them Iheanacho worshippers! Iheanacho has been poor over a number of games both for club and country. He notably stood out in that Huddersfield game. They can bow to Iheanacho 10 times a day facing the east,their fucking business. Iheanacho can do much better,I'm not cutting him no slack anymore with that much potential and at this current level. 3 Likes |

Iheanacho currently has a place behind the striker in the super eagles 4-5-1 formation. Based on form,Iwobi is good to go,probably he can take that spot though not his normal position. (Success up front). If in the future Eberechi Eze is capped and Nacho is still doing this thing he's doing,all things being equal he can fly to the bench. 1 Like |

the nff and rohr shouldn't wait for this lads with dual citizenship to reach stardom before capping them. once the potentials is spotted in a particular player he should be approached and if he fancies the opportunity been presented to him by the football house he should be capped in the next competitive game even if it means giving them few minutes to the end of the encounter. i strongly believe the likes of eze,maja,ejaria and billing are ours but the nff and rohr have to be very active in their pursuit of this lads.

i have been hitting on the issue of billing anyanwu here for sometime and it still baffles me that a player of nigerian origin who is one of the emerging midfielders in the epl is yet to be approached till date about the possibility of changing allegiance to play for us. this kid is playing week in week out, shunning out good performances in the toughest league in europe and is the shinning light of relegation threatened huddlesfield this season but rohr is is yet to atleast make a move on the lad. we will only get serious to lure him when he eventually signs for one of epl's finest and gets a call up from the danish national team selectors. he plays in a position where we lack quality personnel whereas someone like aging john ogu is still getting called up while half baked nwakali jnr have already had a sniff of the team. we need to swallow our pride and reach out to this kids who i believe will make the team stronger and more competitive. i know we can't get them all but we should grab as much as we can in order to widen our pool. the french world cup winning team was made up of 95% players of african ancestry so i see no shame in our pursuit of our sons who are born and breed out of the shores of nigeria and africa. 2 Likes |

I gave Billing his first mention on this thread and I believe he will bring more quality to our midfield BUT I repeat... BILLING SHOULD NOT BE A TOP PRIORITY in our recruitment drive. He is NOT an AM/CAM. He is a CDM. We have lots of CDMs... Getting Billing will just be adding another banana to the bunch we have. We need to be strategic in our recruitment drive and focus FIRST on landing players that address our weaknesses part of which is in the CAM role. We need an Ebere Eze and Ovie Ejaria more than we need a Phillip Billing. That is the truth. This should be our scale of preference. I say yes to Billing but I say a first and bigger yes to Ebere and Oviemuno. We need to tackle our weaknesses first before reinforcing more of our strengths. Finito. charlesemeka85: 2 Likes 1 Share |

ChrisKels: Well Samuel Kalu leads the attack of one of France's oldest team. Europa League starter. Iwobi has helped his manager not to miss the services of two of Europe's most respected players in Ramsey and Ozil. He is also threading passes to two of 2017 most sought strikers in Lacazette and Aubameyang. An Europa League starter. Regular for one of Europe's biggest team. Onyekuru is one of Europe's most valuable 21 year Olds. Might end as one of the most exciting Everton player never to play for them. A Champions League starter. Ahmed Musa, the most expensive and current hottest player in the Middle East. Ighalo the second most prolific player in Asia's biggest league. Moses Simon, Iheanacho. The benchmark of a golden generation is the age, the average age of this attack is 23. |

too early to be cap tied? we are not clamouring for him to come in and dislodge any of the more experienced forwards we have in the team but for us to secure him for future purposes. this kid is just 19, painting the league 1 with goals currently and he has the potentials to be a top palyer in the nearest future. dele alli's case should serve as an eye operner TheSuperNerd: 1 Like |
