raumdeuter:either way, you only agreed with me. nigeria condones mediocrity. no player can stay in top form forever unless you are ronaldo or messi. so those times you dip in form is when you need your country the most. mikel obi declined nigeria's invite all through the afcon qualifiers. immediately he was about to become clueless after middlesborough, he just made a call and bammm, he is nations cup and got signed by some club in turkey. how many players can have such privilege playing for england? and nope, i already answered your question, i wouldnt advise anyone to decline england call. and yes, i would rather be king at taraba poly than a failure at oxford. |

raumdeuter:lol to each his own. a brilliant engineer collecting 500k at amazon that could get fired because amazin saw another brilliant engineer is not better than being a potential top manager at obi and son that pays 100k with alot of benefit and no matter how brilliant or talented you think you are, there will always be someone better. and you can not always maintain top form. |

NinjaMetahuman: There are players who have over 50 caps for England. John Barnes was born in Jamaica and he has over 70 caps for England If you are sure of your abilities, you will play for the best place in your career. Only the ones who are not sure of themselves like Iwobi and Zaha will do that 1 Like |

raumdeuter: England plays with Sterling,Rashford and Kane with Kane playing more centrally and the other two wide.Tammy can't play wide as he is a centre guy. Will he displace Kane from that line up?? England aren't going for a 4-4-2.Even if they will, it will be either Rashford-Kane or Vardy-Kane. Tammy will self destruct if he plays for England. |
Re: Official Chelsea Fan Thread: Champions Of Europe 2021 by raumdeuter: 6:17pm On Oct 03, 2019 |
Adiwana: Vardy is 32yrs will retire soon, Abraham is 21 and Kane is 26yrs prime age better than Abraham but injury prone. If Abraham continues starting for Chelsea and playing well, why cant he start at the world cup for England or at worst be first sub for Kane Why will he destruct by playing for England and not by playing for Nigeria |

raumdeuter: Kane still has a minimum of 5 years of top level football and will always be available to England unless he has a very serious injury that takes him out or makes him lose form very badly. Tammy will be 26 by then. If Tammy can't break into the English team before 26 years,what makes you think he's getting that shirt at that age?? And no, Kane will always get 90 minutes football.Tammy will always be thrown into games where England need to desperately score. What then happens if Tammy loses form?? He will always play for Nigeria but England will forget about him when a new kid pops up on the block Whats the point of scoring hattricks and playing well at club level only to play second fiddle to Kane?? He has himself to blame if he ever puts on that shirt |
Re: Official Chelsea Fan Thread: Champions Of Europe 2021 by raumdeuter: 6:40pm On Oct 03, 2019 |
Adiwana: No ones form is guaranteed including Kane's. Last season Kane was injured from the first leg of the CL quarter till season end if there was a world cup or National tournament last summer another striker would have started for England and why can't that be Tammy Abraham What happens if Kane lose form and Tammy becomes Etoo or Drogba |
Re: Official Chelsea Fan Thread: Champions Of Europe 2021 by NinjaMetahuman: 6:43pm On Oct 03, 2019 |
raumdeuter:are they from this generation? are they still active like sterling? the fact that you are struggling to bring names despite a good number of players that switched allegiance to england should mean something. i mean look at freaking iwobi, he started 2015 and he already has more than 35 caps. what about ola aina? small game time at torino is about to seal his nigeria's first 11 faith. |
Re: Official Chelsea Fan Thread: Champions Of Europe 2021 by raumdeuter: 6:58pm On Oct 03, 2019 |
NinjaMetahuman: Rashofrd started 2016, he already has 34 caps, Kyle Walker has 48 caps, Jadon Sancho already has 8 caps. Even Lingaard has 24 caps 1 Like |
Re: Official Chelsea Fan Thread: Champions Of Europe 2021 by NinjaMetahuman: 7:02pm On Oct 03, 2019 |
raumdeuter:how many of them switched allegiance? how many them can guarantee atleast 80 caps for england despite always been english players.? do you want to bet against iwobi having atleast 80 caps for nigeria? |
Re: Official Chelsea Fan Thread: Champions Of Europe 2021 by RTSC2: 7:08pm On Oct 03, 2019 |
raumdeuter:But you cannot always guarantee that you would always be in top form. How would it help you if you are dumped as soon as you hit a rough patch? It is being penny Wise, Pound foolish. Just look at dele Alli. BTW, are you saying zaha, the best dribbler in the premier league with a release clause of over 70million pounds cannot enter the English team? Do you know the uproar that ensued in England when he chose Ivory coast? Lol. You must be kidding. |
Re: Official Chelsea Fan Thread: Champions Of Europe 2021 by raumdeuter: 7:11pm On Oct 03, 2019 |
NinjaMetahuman: Where is Abraham switching allegiance from? All these black players also have parents and ancestors from West Indies and not from UK The same connection Tomori and Abraham have with Nigeria is what Rashford has to St Kitts and other black players have to West Indies I can guarantee you that Sterling will have at least 80 caps 1 Like |
Re: Official Chelsea Fan Thread: Champions Of Europe 2021 by raumdeuter: 7:13pm On Oct 03, 2019 |
RTSC2: So if Abraham cannot guarantee that he will always be at top form, Is it Kane that can guarantee that? Who will they not dump if he hits a rough patch? Dele Alli is not in form, cannot even play regularly for Spurs. Best dribbler? what type of foolish title is that? Just like Adama Traore is best dribbler. Is he better than Sterling or Sancho? 1 Like |
Re: Official Chelsea Fan Thread: Champions Of Europe 2021 by NinjaMetahuman: 7:27pm On Oct 03, 2019 |
raumdeuter:all black players have roots in africa. pretty sure you know that's not the type of players we are talking about. you already listed the type when you were listing old players. so you can only guarantee sterling? can you bet on it? |

Adiwana:Vardy announced his retirement after the 2018 world cup |
Re: Official Chelsea Fan Thread: Champions Of Europe 2021 by raumdeuter: 7:47pm On Oct 03, 2019 |
NinjaMetahuman: Why should Abraham and Tomori play for Nigeria and Rashford not play for St Kitts, Sterling for Jamaica. I am certain Rashford and Sancho barring injuries will make 50 caps |
Re: Official Chelsea Fan Thread: Champions Of Europe 2021 by Obere4u: 7:49pm On Oct 03, 2019 |
raumdeuter: By root and that's the most important thing |
Re: Official Chelsea Fan Thread: Champions Of Europe 2021 by raumdeuter: 8:06pm On Oct 03, 2019 |
Obere4u: How do you determine root? Do you know where your great grandfathers migrated from? Yoruba folklore has it that they migrated from Middle east while people from the east claim they migrated from Israel Maybe Tomori should be playing for Saudi Arabia, while Iwobi should be playing for Israel 4 Likes 1 Share |

raumdeuter:lol you are just grasping at straw. rashford playing for england has never be in doubt. not even sure there was ever any pressure on him to even switch allegiance. but its okay if you wanna add that. are you willing to bet on those 3? what is barring injury? injury shouldn't be a problem unless its life time injury that made them suddenly stopped playing football. |

You people think playing for National team especially a crap National team like Nigeria is a honour? Many footballers lose the love for International football after a couple of years, much less sacrificing your little rest time to be travelling in rickety planes and staying in shoddy hotels with Super Eagles, where you will be arguing over bonuses and wondering why you are playing with some 40 year old men who falsified their age, or wondering why you are playing with some crap players who paid egunje to make the squad. Any small injury and you lose your club place. Naija will not even have functioning MRI to scan you if you get injured on National duty. You cannot even enjoy the country you are playing for and cannot go anywhere unless surrounded by MOPOL with heavy weaponry. I repeat, there is no benefit for a multimillionaire to sacrifice his sweat playing for Nigeria. Leave that to players still finding their way like Leon Balogun, Troost Ekong, Ola Aina and co. who can use Super Eagles appearances to showcase themselves and get better contracts. If I am Abraham and co, it is better I rest during international week and be fresh to perform for my club where I feed my family than kill myself playing for Naija. 9 Likes 1 Share |
