  • Complete Sports you are part of Nigeria’s problem. What has Odion given you people? Next thing you’ll hear Rohr making a recall.

    Don’t mind them. If there is any ex-player that can add value to current SE set-up, it is VM and not Ighalo. VM is still performing at the top level and can be the fear factor for SE again..

    Yes , Victor Moses still has something that is lacking among the present wingers and should be recall abeit to come and complete for a shirt .Moreover the young ones can learn a thing or two from him.
