Serious Countries look at how Black Stars are forming up, you can see very little corruption is at play and they are setting up to build rather than Appease,
Nigeria on the other hand is so ingrained in pushing this Homebased agenda that no form of Building for Future is at play, Nigeria Tries to forcefully push this Homebase agenda decieving themselves that they are showcasing a league, only they no what they are trying to show case by including Home Based in Super Eagles, because when they are Giving the platform to do so I.e. CHAN, CAF CHampions League and Confederations cups they fail to showcase and Fail Miserably, I wonder they Rationale behind some of the clamours form NFF, Ex Internationals and Some Clueless Fans alike for their Homebased Agenda’s!!!!
Undrr 20 Players not 1 in the Unity cup, Fringe players that miss out on Super Eagles squad conspicuously are hardly given a look in, Anyway on Nigeria side I am happy to see CHristantus Uche there, However this was a chance to push for Tosin Adarabioyo since Ajayi has got himself Released by West Brom for Poor Performances yet he is still relied upon by the COach NAWA OOOOO
Not about poor performance, his contract has expired, also he was on sidelines for many months
