andrew444: One question for those who have these nonsensical beliefs. How old is Ronaldo ❓ How old is Danny Alves❓❓ Finally, how old is Thiago Silva? ❓❓❓ If you add into the equation " football age " in the Nigerian context how many of our footballers are using thier actual age ![]() So let's leave that matter 1 Like |

I hv seen both play but sentiment aside aribo is more talented and works harder for his team than onomah who seem uninterested sometimes. Aribo is left-footed and versatile as well. He scores goals too komekn: |

komekn: Am not supposed to even mention Thiago Silva and co talkless of Cr7 If you are playing in week in week out then you can be invited irrespective of your age Some are suggesting balogun career should be over ,I will only agree if he continues to warm the bench at Brighton ,but if he get game time I will not agree |

andrew444: I take exception to Ramon Aziz that you called. Ramon was a LA liga player at that time getting regular game time. Flavor should have been in the studio or at a musical concert. But Nwafor at that time was a rave of the moment, remember d goals he scored in some friendlies to deserve us. 1 Like |

Don't mind them, the problem with naija is that once an old player has one or two bad games, they would write him off and force a retirement on him. Just before the last World Cup, everyone was talking about how we couldn't play without John Obi Mikel. Gosh, we even gave it a name: "Mikel dependence." Now, Mikel has one bad game and everybody is singing hallelujah that he's retiring. That's exactly how we force retired Jay Jay and we're still searching for a playmaker to this day! While some other people are force retiring Jude Ighalo even when it's obvious to the blind that we don't have another out and out striker! I weep for naija footie sha. O pari andrew444: 4 Likes |

komekn:I don't know what is wrong with you and Andrew44 though. I don't mean it in a bad way. The names you people keep mentioning have been known to be great players from the youth right to this minute. These are players that have been consistent for more than 10 years, always playing anywhere they find themselves. leave from big clubs to big clubs. Can these be said of our own old legs? Maybe we should keep Mikel, Ogu, Joel Obi, Akpeyi, Ezenwa then just because some just cant see the name of Balogun on the list of old legs that should leave. We have alot of good young defenders that needs space to play but we don't want to make way for them, using wrong comparison as excuses. Which of our old legs are consistent or can make the first team of all the names you mentioned? |

charlesemeka85: Andrew was referring to Almeria B sir and not Heereveen B. For the records, before the 2014 WC Ramon Azeez was an Almeria senior player and not in team B. Secondly Nwofor scored 3 goals in 2 games for Nigeria before the WC and was not a Heereveen B team player sir. |

andrew444: If you are playing week in week out like you rightly stated yet your performances aren't good enough, then you don't merit the Super Eagles Do you know how many regulars we have in the NPFL that weren't invited to the national team. It because they are not good enough simple |

somehow: I did not say old legs should be kept Did i say we should keep akpeyi? you know this is a lie, nobody here even want akpeyi, i never said ezenwa so stop saying what i didnt say if you cant proove your own point Please who are the defenders that nobody want to make way for them? as if balogun have been playing for eagles for 10 years, mind you there was a time i stated balogun is a bench warmer that he needs to be playing but almost everybody here said he is our best defender. Please name the young defenders that this current ones are blocking way for ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Once player reach 30 una go say e don old, if player use real age pay ball 30 is not an old age, Just saying At the bolded is our national team brazil? i am sure if you are brazillian you would have been shouting in their thread that alves silva miranda should retire from international football before the copa america till they won it Next time call my moniker fully make i know say you wan talk to me. |

darkelf: Oga all players cant be called to the national team okay If you are playing week in week out, the coach have his choice, he might pick you he might not pick you, this is simple Awoniyi was consistent and onauchu was constitent but the coach choose onauchu because thats his choice, that doesnt mean awoniyi is bad Abeg if we dey talk ball dont talk NPFL 1 Like 1 Share |

andrew444: Then Ogu should keep getting called up as long as he is playing in and out (Was in a champions league/Europa cup) club for years. Akpeyi should also remain. Mikel should not retire o abeg since he is still in a good club and to play always. we need consistency and if you are to reduce the numbers of inconsistent players, you start with the old legs since they have less room to learn. except we all believe that Ekong, Omeruo and Awaziem have not been aactive in their various clubs and also not younger, then and then should one of them leave for a younger /consistent defender. You can't be good and consistent yet sit on the bench for a whole season and still be making your national team list except there are no BETTER REPLACEMENTS! |

( i am giving you example and i am not telling you who should be called,you should know me for that) A certain 31 year old max gradel kept pepe and zaha in the bench for just 1 game each, if na naija you go hear nonsense tire for this thread Even as ighalo dey play many people here dey vex say osimhen no play. |
