As much as we need adarabioyo? is he better than ekong or ajayi ?

No, but look at the situation of Balogun and Omeruo. Omeruo is erratic and Balogun has attained the twilight of his career, so we need reinforcements.

One thing Saka will bring to our NT is his crossing. His crossings were so accurate last season and it becomes interesting when you realize Osimhen will be playing CF.
Inasmuch as I will want to admit we got a lot of wingers, we need to take into context what each will bring into the team.

Chris. It is true we have options but having Saka will be another bonus too. It's not like we won't still be dangerous on the flanks without him but with him, we are assured of even stronger quality depth and his crossing weaponry.

And I have some news for you. With Eze's move to Crystal Palace close and probably almost done a close contact of mine got in touch with Rohr and asked about the possibility of Eze's switch to Nigeria. He asked b'cos we understand from previous narratives this is what Eze wanted to settle first (bagging an EPL move) before making a decision.

Rohr's reply was "We hope so".



Now that podcast with Nedum Onuoha I referred to that Ebere Eze had recently.

Look at part of what he said...

He said when he came to the Nigerian training camp, he thought " that is where he wanted to be" but after playing for the English youth team, he began to think that he might have regretted playing for Nigeria.

As Eze said this, Nedum Onuoha stopped him in his tracks and quickly corrected him not to use the word regret or say he would have regretted making an early decision to choose Nigeria. Onuoha told him that even he himself regrets not choosing Nigeria when the opportunity came and further implied that Eze should not make same mistake.

They said a lot. Onuoha just saved Eze's ass in that podcast bcoz he knows if Eze repeats it to the mainstream media, Naija media would jump on it and that would be the end of his chances with us. For now, it is clear the lad's heart is with England for now. Perhaps with time, he will have a change of heart. Maybe Onuoha's words will give him a tough rethink and maybe this EPL move will now see him arrive at a decision once and for all. I know we need more AM options but Eze must be willing too. If someone doesn't need us, then we don't need him too. But time will tell what his final decision will be.




ChrisKels:


Like i said the other day, I am not losing sleep over Saka, he is one player I don't see his need in the super eagles even though I want him as it would not do our depth no harm, but to be honest, I am indifferent about whatever decision he chooses to make, as regards his national allegiance.

We don't really need Saka as much as we want him

Saka is average , nothing special. And you wonder why they didn't invite him. None of these borough boy can measure up to talents we produce in Nigeria

From a man who claims to be living in the USA for the past 15 years.

Even people living in Nigeria will not come out and make such a crass ignorant and regressive statement. It's the sort of thing not even an illiterate will say.

I disagree based on the fact that if same boy was loaned out to a non English league club he will fumble just like his borough peers....you get it.

I am yet to see any borough boy made it BIG outside England
but I could be wrong and you would inform me.

Kalu ,Henry,Ejuke - These guys playing pattern is to cut inside and shoot. Having Saka on board who can really add another dimension to our attack is a welcome development provided he is willing to play for us.
And crossing is only one of his strength.

It's not about how many but the system that presents boundless opportunities even for the crappy ones among them. Our boys in Nigeria don't even have 1% of the opportunities these English born enjoy. If Nwakali was an English he may have won EPL player of the year by now.

Think about it for a moment

We don't necessarily have to go through these humiliation to get an English reject to play for the Eagles. It's highly embarrassing. Nigeria is a soccer giant who have won more laurel in the world stage than England

Players like solanke ojo arnaut danjuma bankole etc are just average and not really an improvement on what we have but BUKAYO SAKA IS OUTSTANDING IN EVERY WORD. I mean he is the real deal. In fact he will enter England first team as i dont see who is better than him. In future he might play for barcelona or real madrid. He is legit and not some overhyped foreign born player. He is in the class of halland and Jafon sancho so his case is different.
