Must Osimhen always be the last to report to camp? Regardless of people’s misgivings about Musa, he didn’t have the star-of-the-team mentality and was always the first to report to camp.
Anyway, it’s good to see how Onuachu performs as the pointman in Osimhen’s and Akor’s absence in today’s friendly with Egypt.
Osimhen na part of the Mafia squad. He said he will join on Thursday when the team arrives in Morocco.
Same with Chukwueze.
That leaves Friday, Saturday and Sunday for training when FIFA said all clubs should release players on Sunday. Monday or 24 hours before game day is rest day.
I don’t blame Osimhen though. Every other striker play to his benefit.
What of Chukwueze? Why focus on Osimhen and ignore Chukwueze who has failed to impact the team. His team mates are already in Egypt.
Someone is here relying on Onuachu that failed to perform in Super Eagles, top 5 league, and European competition.
Guys forget about SE. We all know the whereabouts of these 3 guys, them go come camp after giving their energies to slay queens at whatever location them dey hide. These generation of players have lost my respect after DR Congo match.
Just as I trust Complete Sports, I trust Punch news as well.
There is a crazy headline there right now:
“Nigeria’s World Cup dream alive as DR Congo face player eligibility probe”.
I’m waiting for Complete Sports to verify it too.
God must really love Nigeria
Nigerians – they have firmly pulled the wool over most Nigerian’s eyes and the misdirection trick is working wonders.
Kai! In 9ja it’s a case of the more you look the less you see
Imagine a country going into a major tournament and only playing one friendly just a few days to the start of tournament and not a single soul in the country or even more so among the avid fans have mentioned anything about that -maybe they haven’t even noticed self who knows lol.
In this “country” people have been effectively conditioned to accept mediocrity and take unacceptable situations as the norm.
Instead of asking the blasted NFF what is going on and holding every last one of the bastards to account, we are here dragging who has arrived in camp or not and some are using the opportunity to show their long standing hatred or jealousy of certain members of the team – not asking themselves the pertinent question – which is that if the football affairs of this country were being run correctly, as any and all self respecting sovereign countries do, will there be any space for this type of indiscipline and lackadaisical attitudes from some of our representatives?
Yes, arriving camp later than expected and not turning up for important friendlies are very big signs of indiscipline and shows a certain lack of true commitment and value to things, but who can blame these players? I guarantee that anyone of us here would do the exact same operating under such cowboy regimes. Shior.
O mase o!
Nigeria fe rapala wo world cup?
Nigeria wanna gatecrash the world cup party thru the back door?
Nigeria meandering and zig zagging her way to the mundial?
unfounded rumours abound that Nigeria seeks to have DRC eliminated based on the case that several DRC players that featured against us were ALLEGEDLY INELIGIBLE.
However, if FIFA end up ruling against DRC, then what about Cameroun, who also lost to these same DRC team? Are we going to have a final between Nigeria and Cameroun to decide who goes to the final leg of the playoffs?
For now, it’s all rumour. No official correspondence from FIFA on the subject, at least not on FIFA’s website.
In my opinion, the fair thing to do is to have a round robin tournament involving the countries DRC, Cameroun and Nigeria, with the winner heading to the Mexico. But first things first. We await FIFA’s decision.
If they failed to make a move when they deemed it fit, we will crucify them, now that they’ve taken the appropriate step, let’s applaud them and see how it pan out, who said miracle they tire Jesus?
