Any day any time, I will choose Kayode over Ighalo, Awoniyi and Sodiq in the Super Eagles. Kayode is a underrated striker but his quality is second to none among the current strikers in the Super Eagles.
They keep lying to us that Ighalo and the othe young strikers are the best we have at the moment but it is a big lie kę.
Nobody can lie to me that Kayode, Dessers
and Nwakuaeme have no place in the Super Eagles.
Those strikers the coaches took to Cameroon didn’t have what it takes against Ghana.
We saw Ighalo as well against Cape Verde before the Afcon, what else? We have to be honest with ourselves. Our own should put sentiment aside, we need our best players against Ghana period. God bless Nigeria!!!
Chai Omonaija don come again oooooo!
Don’t mind him. He never sell dodo finish.
He accused Eguavoen of eating sweet dodo. Now he calls him OUR OWN.
Omo onidodo movement.
Am I lying @OmoEsan? Kai, let’s be honest with ourselves here kę.
@Pompei, ah, omato ijomęta kę. Lolz, you with this dodo?
We can’t make the same mistakes we were making before now. This is why I am doing my part before it is too late. Our own should
wake up because we can’t afford to lose against Ghana. Ire o. God bless Nigeria!!!
