You are just tryin to diss komekn for no reason because he likes iorfa

When Balogun Dey Wigan Dem call am so if iorfa is playing well in the championship why can’t they call him ? Even adaribioyo many of you even want him called in the championship but iorfa na no

Balogun wey dem no call when e Dey chop bench for Brighton na em you Dey call main stay ,be deceiving your self ,Rohr even had to prefer semi and ekong

Can you compare Turkish division 2 to England or Spain ? How many players did they call from there compared to the championship,abi no be same championship dem Dey call etebo from but because person name na iorfa he doesn’t stand a chance

Talk ball and remove sentiment oga

You are not making any single sense

I am not dissing Komekn and Balogun was called before he played for Wigan, he was on loan from Brighton and Hove and he was our best defender at the World cup qualifiers so why should he not be called?

Now we have depth in quality in our defenders with players from Hoffeinheim, Fulham, Rangers and imagine calling a player from Sheffield Wednesday that may be fighting relegation from the Championship

No be everytime Komekn, try to dey think for yourself

Timing is most important here, we called those players when we had no options, now we have 4 central defenders playing first division football why should we lower our standards?

It's true we still have defenders playing second division football but they'll still be phased out as soon as we can get our hands on first division defenders

Then why should we also lower our standards to call ekong if so cheesy

Why you no say make we drop ekong and only call the 4 players playing top fligh football grin

Ebuehi, Osimhen, Ndidi can certainly play for England
Let’s be honest with ourselves, non of our current players can cement himself in the England squad, Ndidi and Osimhen might just make it occasionally but would struggle to be a key member of the team, but that doesn’t mean they’re a better team, one interesting thing about this current eagles is the dynamics at which they play as a team, it’s like a synergy of average players forming a great team, just like what we saw in Leeds Utd,the Aston villa vs Liverpool, Lyon of last season and Atalanta

There is a thing called TIMING, we invited Ogu from the Israeli league at one time, we invited Shehu Abdullahi from Turkish division 2 at one time, we even invited Lokosa from Kano Pillars

I am not a fan of iorfa you need to be straight forward most times

Udoukhai and tournarigha never agree to play for naija

If semi can be called playing in the championship so why can’t iorfa be called there if he is on a good form there ? Or say semi get 10 heads ?

Our captain Ekong is also playing in the championship now and some of us are okay with that

Omeruo is also playing in division 2 but still in the team

Same Balogun was also called when playing for Wigan

We should be sincere bros as no he everything we go use as diss to komekn just because we knows he likes iorfa

Iorfa has been playing in the championship for 7 years now...if Rohr or any past super eagles manager rated him,he would have been called up long ago..
Komekn said it is loyalty and some bullshit that's been keeping him in the championship for 7 years now...
Let me remind you, our current CB options are:
Ekong
Ajayi
Balogun
Omeruo
Awaziem
Akpoguma


Upcoming **
Tonnoarigha
Udokhai
Adarabioyo .


Iorfa needs to do something really amazing to get a call up anytime soon..
Ekong being a championship player doesn't take away the fact that he is the vice captain and one of the oldest and most trusted member of the squad...

You saw where I said if he can do better in the championship why can’t he be called up as others players have been called up in the past ,I didn’t said he should he called up immediately and walk into the team

I have argued with a lot of analyst about this ekong position is not safe, in our attack now the impetus behind the invitation of the strikers is Europe top 5 league I see desser and onuachu as a pretender the likes of maja,moffi and akodare are the main deal.
There will be an evolution in the SE that the likes of ekong might phase out unless he moves to a team in Europe 5 league and play regularly I wonder how ekong will play when we have the likes of jordan,kelvin,tosin,udokhai playing for Hertha Berlin ,hoffenhim,Fulham,Augsburg respectively how on earth will these players be dropped for a Watford player second division

He has to do more than better!

He has to do very very well..

The competition for spot in the CB position is now strong..
A player that has spent all his professional career in the championship doesn't look like one likely to break into the team anytime soon...

Look at Collins,his spot in the team is under threat now that we have Zaidu... Collins isn't a long time member of the team,so there's no guarantee for him..if he was still in the Budensliga,there might be no problem for him..

Like Sub-Zero said, it's about timing...
At this moment,we have better CBs in better leagues....

Colin will soon be phasing out we need 4 full backs
Ehzibue and ebuehi are the trusted RB while sanusi and aina should take over the LB roles
