Lol u funny bro, when did Kalu join the team? That should be the basis of ur argument and comparison not things that happened when he wasn't there.

Since Kalu joined the team, what has been his input compared to Simon's? Let me rephrase, since the world cup ended, what has Simon done for the Eagles compared to Kalu?

Simon and Kalu are not vying for the same position.

Simon has been out of the National team due to injury but when he came back he scored a goal after just 23 minutes. What it took Kalu 123 minutes to do. grin

that you did not go with it does not make it less true.

I see how you plan to be objective with your view from one spectrum, so, keep up with that, but let me not catch you advocating for any ex-international on another day

If you want to be an activist, do it for the truly oppressed. You cannot be supporting rich people and think you are doing the world a favor, they don't need your support.


It is not a battle between the rich and poor, this is not medieval France. A few workers did not get their pay as at when due, that's all. Learn to stick with the essence of the discourse. Thank you.

But for Keshi to use him, since Keshi was corrupt according to you then Some must have paid egunje at that time. Why can't he do the same thing he did when Keshi invited him?

Keshi was forced to invite him because the guy couldn't stop making rave week after week.

Journalist bombarded Keshi with questions on why he never invited him despite his exploits.

After Keshi invited him, he kept him on the bench for Uzeonyi despite his poor performance.

Sone Aluko got his invitation due to pressure from the fans and journalists.

What do you use to determine when pay is due?

The way you people are shouting as at when due, someone will think you sat with them and were present at the signing of this agreement.

If you work for me and I tell you, I have your money, come and collect, then you say "No, I want it in another currency"....then, I say "okay, but I will have to sort it out with my bank, so, it might take some days to clear"....is it not common sense that will tell you, you ought to wait some days?

Rather, you choose to go for protests out of the blue, after we had an agreement, and then somebody will say na me do bad thing.

I work, I get paid, and sometimes, the person paying me, informs me ahead of time that the money might not clear early enough. I understand that, so, I wait, sometimes longer than the initially agreed date because na human being dey work to clear the money

I don't know what business you do, but money will not always be paid as at when due, even in the so-called sane climes. It behoves on one party to apply patience. If their money was a whole week late, I could have seen reason with them, but this display, is just another example of black men being black men. Match was played Saturday, businesses opened Monday and money cannot be cleared on weekends. So, why are they protesting as early as Tuesday?

If your money hooks in a bank on Friday, will anything be done about it before Monday? It may not even be corrected until Friday.


There is just a lot of ignorance about issues and while it is very easy to blame the NFF, because that os the road most traveled, the so-called professionals have not acted in a professional manner either.

Oh ok, so that must mean the journalists and fans deserted Sone and stopped clamoring for him or just that the other coaches are too stubborn and can't be pressured. Interesting.

Super Eagles captain John Mikel Obi, William Troost-Ekong and Samuel Chukwueze have been dropped to the bench for today’s 2019 Africa Cup of Nations Group B clash with Guinea, Completesports.com reports.
The trio started the Eagles’ first match against the Swallows of Burundi last Saturday.
In their place, head coach Gernot Rohr, has opted for Ahmed Musa, Leon Balogun and Moses Simon.
In goal, Rohr has kept faith with Daniel Akpeyi who despite a good showing against Burundi looked short of confidence.
Versatile defender, Chidozie Awaziem, who replaced the injured Shehu Abdullahi against Burundi will start at right-back, while Ola Aina and Kenneth Omeruo are the two other defenders that have been handed starting shirts against the Guineans.
Leicester City midfielder, Wilfred Ndidi, Oghenekaro Etebo and John Mikel Obi will start in midfield.
Match hero against Burundi, Odion Ighalo will lead the attack in place of Paul Onuachu, and will be flanked by the duo of Moses Simon and Ahmed Musa.

Mikel Obi should be on the bench.
I think Mikel being in the lineup in this write-up is a mistake

The players have no excuse for what they did. If they are too big to deal with the hassles of the Super Eagles, they should step down and let those who can cope play.

We have soldiers on the frontline of Boko Haram, defending the country with their lives, earning little or nothing, sometimes stranded with no pay or food. Yet how many will drop their arms and come home.

Yet this one's embarrassed the whole Nation that their bank alerts have not come and were ready to abandon training. So if Dalung wants to frustrate the team, the way the players acted compounded issues.
see what you are saying? So you mean they should keep quiet when they feel cheated? The only reason the soldiers can't drop arms is because they don't have any other source of income, some of them have left the job and travel abroad. Imagine someone like Kalu whose mum was kidnapped, Nigeria couldn't help the mum regain freedom the guy had to pay, he now come play ball for una una still no wan pay am o boy if na me e go red o

There are levels to this payment thing

When people that already have money can decide not to train just because their bonus for a game has been delayed, meanwhile some people never even see salary for almosr a year and still work, and if they say dem no work again, they are threatened with a sack.

Later, somebody will come and post a footballer's picture when he's older, telling us the government is not caring for him. Make dem collect all their money now o, because nobody will donate to them later
I support, they should fight for their money now but when they get older and anything happen they shouldn't blackmail us with the 'I served Nigeria' anthem

The real lineup will be out by 2.30pm... Anything before that is just from the writer's imagination..

I can believe that Rohr can drop Mikel and Chukwueze but not Ekong! despite that Ekong was poor last week Rohr can't drop him! Its Awazeim that's most likely to make way for Balogun...

Maybe Ekong isn't fit...he suffered a knock in the last minutes of the Burundi game though...

It is obvious you don't know anything. grin

Kalu and Chukwueze are the two competing for RW slot though Kalu is the first choice (but things might have changed after Chukwueze impressed). Simon is not competing for the RW because that's not his position in the national team. Fact. See snapshot below

How many freekick goal has Kalu scored?

How many goals have Kalu scored for the SE?

Simon was one of Nigeria's best player during the world cup qualifiers yet you are talking about Kalu. grin

Ahmed Musa is the LW first choice but nobody knows who is the second choice between Simon and Onyekuru.

Simon played as a winger too in La Liga. Stop giving false information.

Ps: the last snapshot is Kalu's stats with the national team. 99% RW
king of screenshots grin

Nobody is saying they shouldn't get paid...But the manner in which they carried out their grievances was unprofessional, given the fact that this would be the first time in like 2 years that such would happen. And it was just one match outstanding bonus!!
They could have been a bit patient at least...
