Yes, there are reports telling us that players are subjected to coronavirus test.

That was the reason why he left camp. As regards making the U17 team, we know how that would likely have played out.

Agreed, but not making quarters in world cup is paining me. We need to go all in for the next mundial. We are on the cusp of a talent boom, so let's make the most of this fruitful period.


You will weep blood again when you are ousted at the group stage again like you did in the 2018 World cup

Agreed he has been over taken comprehensively by two players that were considerably behind him at one stage.

Those two players are Eze and Ovie.

He has been for me largely dissapointing.

Joseph Yobo: I’ll be 100% loyal to Gernot

Newly appointed Assistant coach and former Captain of the Super Eagles, Joseph Yobo, says he cannot wait to start in his new position.

Life for Joseph Yobo as Super Eagles assistant coach could lead to greater things for the former captain, who insisted he’ll be loyal and is ready to learn from Manager Gernot Rohr.

Yobo was appointed to the team as Rohr’s assistant and will replace former NPFL winner, Imama Amapakabo after just one year.
The former Eagles captain was yet to resume his duties along side Rohr in the technical area due to the COVID-19 pandemic, after the cancelation of Nigeria’s 2021 AFCON qualifiers against Sierra Leone.

In an interview, yesterday, Yobo explained his expectations when he resumes with the team.
“I’m a very loyal person, was as player and nothing has changed,” said the Eagles assistant coach.

“There is a lot to learn from the coach and I am ready to work and learn; for my development and importantly for the progress of our team.’

This is going down now.


4 Nigerians make the cut



Currently it's 50-50 between Mahrez and Amunike. Lol


We need to make our own win....

Besides Ghanaians are all over the Abedi Pele vs Kanu draw. No Mikel in the draws.


The hardest may be Drogba vs Aboutrika...

This is just unnecessary waste of data.

Everyone knows its Samuel Eto'o

Begging is when you approach a player multiple times to rep his own country and even send emissaries. When Nigerian players begin to reach out to that player and explain in painstaking terms why you should play for your country.

That, my dear Sir is begging.

To explain my opinion on the LFC 100million debacle.

Can LFC spend an amount on just one player? Yes.

Will they do so if that player was Mbappe? Its hard to answer.

For one, Mbappe is just one player and maybe prone to getting injured for an extensive period.

Two, its hard to just conclude that Mbappe will bench Firminho. Firminho does more than just score(actually, he isn't very good at this). He tracks back and even helps out the defense. His work rate is even comparable to Mane's. I doubt Mbappe can replicate such.

Three, with the AFCON coming soon (bar Covid19 delays), we would need suitable, world class replacements for Salah and Mane and I think the board/sporting director/coach may tilt toward splashing the cash on Jadon Sancho and Mbappe but the conundrum is, when Salah and Mane returns, who would bench who?

My opinion: To buy Mbappe, it means we have to sell one of the front three so that we don't end up having a bench him/or play him problem. Should we buy Mbappe? I don't know. Personally, Mbappe is younger than any of them and has more room for improvement under klopp but the fee would be too high for one player. I'd have loved we consider buying both Werner(we need a creative AM/striker) and chukwueze(I believe this young lad would vastly improve under klopp).

And abuse, disrespect, dishonourable conduct and maltreatment.

Is when a Nigerian origin player accepts and agrees to play for a Nigeria after being convinced. Expects an invitation by virtue of the gentleman agreement and promises made.But nothing happens.

Finally he gets to play for his country and after performing he is told to continue playing for the SE. He will need to come to an arrangement with particular NFF officials that will benefit them not neccesarily himself financially.

The player has integrity and is not desperate so he declines. The consequences he is no longer called up or he agrees and continous to play for the SE.

That my honourable is the price many have paid to play for the SE.

I agree with this.

I don't fault any who don't want to play for us because of this reason you pointed out. As I said, if I was a good performing FB, I don't think I would tilt toward playing for Naija at firat

I saw him a few times before the season was halted, trust me he would come good, hence I pray Fulham gets promoted. I was glad with what I saw, even though he hasn't been so lucky with injuries
