Osimhen played on Saturday and he’s not yet in camp, Dennis team mates are already in camp and he’s no where to be found. Says so much about some players attitude to the national team.
What sort of indiscipline and unseriousness is this?
We should be having a full house by now as it was in the days of rohr
Dennis, Bassey and Bonke have just hit camp. please you people should take it easy on Dennis, stop attacking key players!.
its this kind of unseriousness that made rohr dropped Dennis back den.
To say the least, I am disappointed by their un serious attitude with arriving at the camp. Will we call that over confidence or arrogant? This is not mere friendly games.
Now, they will still blaming the coaching crew when the unwanted happens.
However, this lackadaisical attitudes by the players are not been taken note of.
Just like the above person’s have stated, Dennis and Oshimen is yet to hit the camp. What excuse do they have?
90% of players in camp did not play this past weekend. The first training comes this evening and many that played last weekend may have arrived last night. They are humans also we need not to quickly condemn them pls.
WHY NIGERIA PLAYERS ARE COMING ONE BY ONE, LATE TO THE CAMP FOR CRUCIAL WORLD CUP PLAY-OFF LIKE THIS. ARE THEY NOT KNOW THE MATCH IS CRUCIAL AND NEED WORLD CUP COMPETITION FOR THEIR CAREER TO UPGRADE. INFACT, THIS IS BAD ATTITUDE ON THE SIDE OF OUR PLAYERS.
AS OF YESTERDAY MONDAY EVENING, WE LEARN THAT THE CAMP OF EGYPT, SENEGAL, ALGERIA,GHANA, MOROCCO, TUNISIA ARE COMPLETELY FULL. OR MAY BE THE SPIRITS OF NIGERI(Africa) TIME ARE FOLLOWING OUR PLAYERS YO CAMP. I HOPE, WE WILL NOT GET BAD CONSEQUENCE FOR COMING LATE.
That is why we need a WHITE COACH my brother…
During GENERAL ROAH’S time for instance there was nothing like LATENESS to TRAINING or AFRICAN TIME..
Why always picking holes where there is none? Are the players not human beings? Are they all coming from Britain? All the players have situations and circumstances that are different. So, you have to address them individually. Put yourself in their shoes and think of what you would have done in the same situation and circumstance!
You always talk of Whiteman as coach for the super eagles. Well, there is a reason why no foreign coach has ever and may yet never win the world cup for any given country. Please, always appreciate your own and if they fail, criticize them constructively.
