If you can not prove his age then what is purpose of your proposition.

It's vice versa, you can not have it both ways.

Unfortunately and shamefully Nigeria does not have OFFICIAL AUTOMATIC BIRTH DATA CAPTURE. As a consequence it is IMPOSSIBLE to have official age verification in Nigeria.

In Nigeria we rely entirely on personal integrity which knowing our country and it's value system is very very weak indeed.

We can't even have basic free and fair elections.


Consider your claim in bold and the substanceof your initial statement. i.e. " were you there when he was born "

So back to you, prove that Ahmed Musa is 27




I'm not going back and forth on this


His passport states that he's 27

I don't know where your problem lies


Inasmuch as you can't disproof his official age,then you should StFU

yeah, would he?

i mean he never made Chelsea team, kept going on loan and all. How would he have been called to the English team?

Abraham, tomori ,mount never made chelsea team and they have always been going on loan so how come they are making english team now?

Komekn is trying to tell you that aina will play under lampard, and i totally agree with that

If tomori can play under lampard then i see no reason why aina cant play LB or RB

A certain Reece james is also getting game time then aina would also

He was denied by the bar. That’s the only strong team they came against. But overall he has been impressive in UEFA.

Don’t forget your line “Lion in the lower league...” A least we can apply that here.
League 1 or 2 is not better than the Serbian top tier. Partizan is a decent club

komekn:


Do you know there are league two teams that have held thier own with Epl teams that doesn't put them on the same standard.

Was it not a league two team that beat Leicester City in the Cup last season. But they still didn't do much more that season.

I remember Southend playing Arsenal a few years ago and almost winning the game.

In cup games anything is possible.

If you put Sadiq Umar in league two honest no bias he will struggle. You said he held his own OK how many goals did he score ❓ over the two legs and you know a lot of thier youth player were in that team.

So how did he hold his own bros.

Sadiq Umar seems to be the best option though he is not playing in a top league. Followed closely behind by Okereke based on club form. I don't think Rohr rates the Dutch league else Dessers should have been the number one bonafide option.

However, if Kelechi, Maja and Awoniyi who are in better leagues get to play and score goals consistently for one month, forget those bonafide options ever making the team ahead of them. In fact, Kelechi will be the first to regain his place in the national team ahead of everyone here due to..wetin we know but I don't know if there situation will ever change.


NB: Peter Olayinka is better on the LW.

Sadiq Umar to me is not an upgrade from Paul Onuachu. Infact same reason I don't rate Onuachu applies for Sadiq.

Considering the abundance of wingers who are mostly ahead of Olayinka i will consider fielding him in a striking position. Iheanacho, could come in handy if he can get more playing time either at Leicester or from a January move . Okereke comes next for me but I think he is still very much work in progress. Dessers well, also coming up but he is behind Okereke for me.
The other strikers have not done enough (IMO) to be considered.

great result from the team. yes you might say it's just "Lesotho" however the manner that we battered them was impressive. This is what the Super Eagles of the 90s always did. once they faced a team they were clearly better than they would absolutely beat them into submission no room for any yeye upset. Didn't watch the match was at an engagement but even the MC of the event was letting us know what was up telling us scores at a point grin

Osimhen, Osimhen, Osimhen i remember when i was defending his call up when rohr has just taken over. i remember how i said he's a diamond in the rough who with time and patience could metamorphose into a beast of a striker for the National team. i remember saying that even the great Yekini took time to hit his stride. i remember forgiveness attacking me saying i was delusionally comparing victor to yekini. today it now looks plausible. Osimhen is most definitely not the finished article but he's making big strides game by game. before it was he falls down easily, next he's not strong to hold up play, can't compete against "elite defenders" little by little the boy is answering his critics. i pray he maintains that unquenchable hunger to improve and do well that the best players always display.

defence still needs a defender who can read and snuff out danger effectively. Ekong is my guy but he is still the front foot kind of defensive enforcer. same with omeruo. balogun who reads the game well is not the fastest at his best and his lack of game time and advancing age have affected him badly. hope we can find one asap with leon's game reading ability but with requisite pace and physicality.

enough has been said about how to address the fullback situation so i wont add to ILLICITblood's well written opinion on the matter.

midfield is almost their if the nff can pull off getting ejaria and ebere eze to don the GWG omo na better jollof our midfield go just dey dish out.

goalkeeping position is still not safe with akpeyi. i think this is the time for rohr to be brave and put faith in whoever is the best nigerian keeper in the NPFL and give him a run of games at least until okoye matures or uzoho is fit.

Supernerd has spoken well and analysed extensively the back up options to osimhen. whoever is in form or the next best person should be auditioned until it's eventually sorted.

My opinion on our coaching situation has not changed. rohr might not be the best tactically but overall his pluses over ride his negatives. if the nff is not sure of getting a good tactician if they decide rohr should go please they should let him be. better a moses that took you out of egypt going towards the promised land than some false Joshua who will lead you back to bondage


Osimhen didn't deserve to be called as at that time he struggled in the Bundesliga. His case is not different from Awoniyi who is also struggling in the same league but nobody thinks he's good enough. How then was Osimhen good enough as at that time?

You can't still compare Osimhen with Rashid Yekini except he starts scoring like him. He is still far away.

You know how long it took Onyekuru before Rohr looked his way. It would take Okereke a while... maybe if he moves to France. The quickest way to Rohr’s heart is France and Germany hahaha

The proof is in his passport

You are making a claim that he is not 27 what is your proof?

I did not make a claim you are, not me.

The discussion started with IllicitBLOOD, you should look at the context before jumping in.

My position is very simple, l will reiterate what l said. That because there is no AUTOMATIC BIRTH DATA CAPTURE in Nigeria.

There is no substantive official verification of age in Nigeria. The source of age is entirely reliant on personal integrity, integrity that can be very questionable.

In Western Europe and most of the developed world. Even prior to birth there is already substantive data capture and at birth there is IMMEDIATE AUTOMATIC DATA CAPTURE CORROBORATED @ MULTIPLE GOVERNMENTAL SOURCES.

There is zero reliance on the individual personal integrity as a source of data.

Passport is not proof of date of birth as a stand alone document.

Osimhen at the time was a youth prospect who was called up for a dead rubber match against tanzania at the end he wasn't even in the final squad for the match. it's not unusual for countries all over the world to call up talented players to blood them early into the national team. what did samuel etoo do before cameroon took him to the 1998 world cup in france? or theo walcott that england took to germany in 2006?

Yes he hasn't gotten to Yekini's heights yet but who knows if he can't even be better? time can only tell

i haven't completely given up on Onuachu. the game against egypt tells me there is something there. plus you don't score double digits for your club thrice in a row if you are completely useless.

Sadiq Umar i agree doesn't look the part (yet!)

Okereke should be the next person to be test

You supriseme with this comment.

Tell me what team in the EPL will buy a striker who has scored 5 goals over three seasons in the EPL.

Then add his huge transfer fee and wage demands.

I think he may decide to run his contract down because nobody will pay £15 million for him now.

Championship clubs will look at him as not suited and or good enough if they have promotion ambitions.

So Turkey is his best bet at the moment so he may get half of his current pay but because of the favourable tax regime. He may end up with the same money.

Furthermore, the football thier is not as taxing and he may be able to score once again.

That kinda team that bought Solanke from Liverpool, would.

Sadiq Umar is totally a different player from Onuachu. He needs to move to a better league.

Okereke is a team player and also good at scoring goals. Rohr should give him the chance to see what he can do.

I don't think Peter Olayinka is good in that position.
