I don't support the view that we should invite them when they are yet to hit stardom. Are you trying to tell me we ain't good enough for them when they are doing well? We need to set a boundary.. Enough is enough. Naija nor be dumping ground for "foreign born wey nor dey do well". We deserve the best and if they don't wanna play for us when they are at their best, they should go ahead and do whatever they like but they should never dare to look at us when they are at their worse.

Why did they not vote for him during nomination?

You guys can't even practice Small democracy here but are quick to insult real politicians.

All the 13 people that liked this comment had the opportunity to vote for him but didn't, now trying to break Democratic rules.

If he's not there or not really available, won't life continue?

Make una respect una self jare.

Joebie:

We are our own problem.
I keep telling my mom that she is wasting her time going to Urhobo Progressive Union meetings. The kind of politics dey play there just to vote American chapter president, and even the president at local level eh.. it's crazy at every level it's the same mentality. na so so wayo dem dey do to vote.. That's why we cant stand against what is wrong in this country because in our very little ways we are the same.

I was thinking exactly the same my bro but I didn't want people to start having a wrong impression, so I just kept quiet.

I respect Icons for not falling for this.

Unless we want to invite them to our youth teams or if we have a deficiency in their position e.g okoye, I totally agree with you if a player isn't as good as who we have there's no point bringing him in just to cap-tie him. It's the same thing Spain are trying to do that we are crying blue murder urging us to do same is just being hypocritical

jieta:
Urhobo man, good to meet you.

Na real was

Most Nigerians are like their politicians jare

Joebie:
It's an easy solution. Don't discriminate give them a fair chance at the U17 levels upwards, so we can have the best team possible at all times. Some will stay loyal to us and should only earn a call up to the SE eventually. But if u just reserve a slot only in areas we have deficiency at the U17 level regardless, then what do you expect? By default they should be loyal to the country that has always given them a chance.

At this time, the Nigerian league was doing well, we could source for talents in-house.

It is not the same scenario today, the league has gone to the dogs, you can't find talents in the leagues. Even more, the whole workd seems to have left Nigeria in 1994. We have done nothing to build on that success, rather, the local coaches glorify mediocrity and sacrifice true talent for a few extra kobos.

It is not because we do not have local talent that are just as good, or even better than the foreign borns, but the rotten corruption stiinking up everywhere, means, we can only look outside to help ourselves.

Leave the U17 for enabling players in the Grassroots develop. The U20 and U23 is there for foreign born. We Could have a super eagles team B that will be playing friendly games where the foreign borns could play and have a home based team also.

But the U17 should remain for thorough scouting of special home based talents and develop them.

Let us not finally destroy the u17 system that brought the country so much joy. We ruled the World in that aspect. Let us not kill it but improve on the scouting in a more comprehensive manner.

jihday:
exactly, scout far and wide if we see a talented NIGERIAN born outside the country and willing to play he should be allowed to represent his country

Ofcos you didn't watch the UCL... But you saw the results... Didn't you? You know that Osimhen scored and Tammy bagged am own goal... Where are your stats reports from that day naa?

Nothing stops you from posting it the following day naa... You have always done so for Tammy.


Anyway, I only responded to a question. The true Patriots are here.

You didn't disappoint in acting like the Child I said you are in bringing Tammy news here because you simply love this asslicking job.

Like Chriskels said... I have left you behind. I ignored all your Tammy posts and childish celebrations of an Englishman's goal on the Super Eagles thread... But had to remind you that the true Patriots are here always discussing the True GWG players while you looking for a way to always "childishly" bring up English international, Tammy.

Man... You have lost the focus of this thread. You are just a joke now. Funny and childish hiw you insist on bringing this guy who has no business with this thread here... Hahahahahahahaha... Carry on... Just wanted all to see your childish nonsense.

Africa need to wake up and really compete in every regard and stop talking about PRIDE.

Noooo, you don't understand. U-17/U-20 equal opportunity for all, senior team if the coach feel they are good enough to bench current players then bring them in, but we shouldn't bring them because we want to cap tie them

Utonwanne:


Joebie is deviating but I think you are upping the fire. Let's stop all these abeg.


Joebie , you gotta stop your Tammy obsession. We 've lost him, that's the truth

Which is gradually becoming his permanent place, hope he's not carving his butt prints on the bench already
Seem Villa is feeling the big clubs will soon come for the dude

charlesemeka85:
This Europeans no dey shame? Imagine Spain inviting a player from lowly wolves just to stop him from being capped by Mali? This one na desperation oooo lolz

I think fifa have to readdress this this nationality issue because it makes no sense tying down a player who won't be an integral part of your team just to wade off interest from his other affiliated nations.

Clementoke:
These are players we should be going after not those that want to eat their cake and still have it at the same time

TheGoodJoe:


Robbing Osimhen of the chance to play in the u17 a World Cup for Tammy Abraham who was highly trained at Chelsea would have been detrimental to Osimhen's career.

Look at where Tammy is without the U17. Osimhen would not be where he is without the u17.

Finito.
