*Semi Ajayi
* Kelvin Akpoguma
Both ranked as the best b’cos of their playing time and performances so far and due to because they are both tested and trusted for national team. Others are:…
* Marvin Ekpiteta – Blackpool (2 man of the match performances so far this season)
* Jordan Torunarigha – KAA Gent
* Tosin Adarabioyo – the only Naija born defender that is regular in EPL so far
*Felix Udokhai – all these names had played every minutes this season but unfortunately, we only have one player in Ajayi that is among the regulars.
Others are ..
*Troost-Ekong…. Nigerian captain without game time with a club like Watford
* Awaziem – Three calamities already for his new club in Croatian league this season, one in a league game and 2 others in Europa league
* Omeruo – no news about his performance except being the new captain of his club.
@ Paseiro and Finidi, hope you are both reading this?
– the match that really sealed the fate of Rohr as a coach was against CAR when the mixed up btw Balogun and troost-Ekong lead to a goal which we lost.
After that, we’ve witnessed Owen goal from Awaziem, Ekong, and blunders from our goal keepers. Which shows Nigerian team’s recent problem is our Defence and a goal keeper is as good as his defense. We need to really follow up on those players up there and allow our regulars to settle Aina is already having game time which is good for us.
@Sean, Excellent analysis and follow up of our players. I hope the coach Peseiro is following up and cap these players, because our defenders are completely out of form and they are in their retirement time
Oluwatosin Oluwadoyinsolami Adarabioyo is as English as Shepherd’s Pie. He was born in Manchester.
He is very focused regarding his ambition to play for England at the upcoming world cup. He might even captain the 3 Lions.

Take your time to read this, especially on Adarabioyo’s part. Lookman and Akpoguma denied us more back then. Anything can still happen especially with the presence of
* Stone -Man City
* Maguire – Man UTD
* Coady
* White
* Kean
* Tomori etc before him, he’s just a dreamer.
As Nigeria failed to qualify for the mundial, I guess their interest has evaporated into thin air.
They can now focus on winning the world cup with England come November.
Bassey was Imperious for Ajax today.
