Heaven bless all deserving Super Eagles players in camp and those who are expected.
MY ADVICE COACH PASEIRO IS TO USE THE FRINGE PLAYERS AGAINST ALGERIA TEAM B AND SEE HOW THEY WILL PERFORM. AND USE ORIGINAL TEAM IN THE SECOND MATCH.
They criticized and insulted Dennis but now they are ignoring the action of one of the most indisciplined and overhyped players in current set-up.
This guy has a bad record of being the last to get to camp, bringing girls to camp and acting like a jester.
A bench warmer of the worst team in the EPL. His team mate Ndidi got to camp days ago..
If there is anybody to be called OVERHYPED is that DENNIS of a GUY..
Sebi them put am against GHANA five MINUTES later HIM come dey LIMP..
NONSENSE!!!
But you don’t know if he has taken excuse from the coach, it is possible.
Your Dennis who plays like a headless-chicken? He’s the most overhyped Nigerian player I’ve watched in so many years. Was it not the same Dennis who was jumping up-and-down and doing useless primary school skills in Abuja when Super Eagles needed just one goal to qualify for 2022 World Cup? Him get luck say I dey stadium that day, I for carry koboko whip him nyash lol.
In terms of achievement and individual accolades, Dennis is nowhere near Kelechi Iheanacho. Let Dennis win EPL player of the month ‘fess’, mtcheew.
Were lopoju ninu yin. Dennis had 10 goals and a couple of assists last season in EPL. He joined NF just towards the end of the transfer season…and of course he hasn’t settled properly because he didn’t really have a pre=season with them. And you guys are here slandering him up and down because he said he’s injured and can’t feature for this friendly. Make una dey fear God o….someone even said Dennis is the most overrated SE player…Ah…. o ga o
Abeg don’t compare Dennis with any of these patriotic SE Stars, late coming is way better than refusal to honour invitation. Your Dennis declined invitation for AFCON and now repeating same currently simply because he wasn’t in the original list. He believe he is too much to be a standby replacement without taking into consideration his very poor form lately for NF in Premier league
I pray he never gets any future invitation to SE ever again no matter his form
And how will such footballer grow when he’s supposed to take it upon himself to become a better player that can never be dropped again, instead he was angry. I will say that is not wise way of thinking, such thinking will not enable him to strive to become better.
Those were the people who were gnashing their teeth over Rohr’s non-commitment to indulging such a spoilt brat like Dennis with any special treatment (invitation or game time) as far as the national team is concerned.
Oversabis who know how to run/manage a national team better than the Manager…..LMAOooo.
This time last year, it was Dennis this, Dennis that, as if Dennis will single handedly win matches for us….Ngwa start vs Ghana, silly kid got gassed out within half an hour….while charcoal brained local coaches rather pulled out the best performing player on the pitch leaving their spoilt brat to continue panting cluelessly all over the place.
I am glad time, the greatest judge of all that is true, is beginning to tell now.
All their lies are beginning to catch up with them….LMAOooo.
I will take Iheanacho 100 times with his seriousness ahead of Dennis.
Dr. Drey…My goodness!!!…Abeg, when will this Rohr Romance end… Do you know some of us here were also his fan when he was in charge? But we’ve gat to move on man! Moreover, it wasn’t that he was the best for us…abeg i take God beg you, let this Rohr romance end…start writing those nice epistles again…abeg
Never compare a serial achieved like iheanacho to Dennis bike nu nu
Achiever***
Kelechi Iheanacho is miles above Dennis in all ramifications. If Eguavoen hadn’t listen to groundnut sellers and start Iheanacho in the return leg in Abuja I can guarantee you that we will have a chance to beat Ghana that day. Don’t ever compare Iheancho with Dennis just because you’re trying to undermine the reason he was always dropped by Rohr. No doubt Dennis is a good player, but in the present SuperEagles only Osimhen can be compared in the same category with Iheanacho in that attack.
@Afilly, don’t mind those ogogoro sellers calling themselves journalists. They are useless social media commentators. Bloggers calling them journalists.

I hope this is not true……..Regardless of who you are you should respect the coach’s decision. I’m quite sure he doesn’t disrespect Rogers when he drafts him the CB position.
Peseiro probably wanted to try an Ndidi Bassey defence with the young guy Onyedika playing as the DM…….. The sudden injury is kind of suspicious but who knows but for a journalist to make such a bold claim he might have inside sources. This is why we clamor for such friendlies to be used to try new players so that no player feels indispensable, and in all honesty, we have lost major games when Ndidi is absent so it’s about time, they find a capable replacement for his position.
I have never trusted all those bloggerz calling themselves journalists or critics. Critics my arse. They never proof read. Many of them don’t even have qualifications. Lolzzzz
Fake news! Ndidi just debunked the news in his IG story and called out the Journalist…Sulaimon or something
I thought as much and for Ndidi to say something on social media tells alot cuz he barely says anything.
I thought as much and for Ndidi to say something on social media tells alot cuz he barely says anything but even if it was true I don’t think Ndidi will say yes I left the camp because I didn’t like that lol..
Was Coachie trying to experiment Ndidi-Bassey centre back combo against Algeria team B (home base)??? If they sustain injury nkor? Will NFF pay their medical bills for a grossly inconsequential match on the 23rd???
I’m personally not comfortable with using our first 11 against a home base B team or whatever…
Coachie pls use fringe players for the 23rd match to avoid an unnecessary injury and derogation of our foreign pros who are very important to their clubs…!
While not extend your pool of invited stars and play them against the B team? While you match your best 11 vs Algeria first 11?
My opinion though.
