Re: The 'cat' with nine lives: Ebuehi and Collins get yet another call up. .....

How did Zaidu (a LB) “steal” the slot of Ebuehi (who plays on the other side of the pitch at RB)?

Fact is people would raise their game in big occasion and we saw this with average players like Zaidu who undeservedly stole ebuehi slot during Afcon

Re: SE list for March Friendlies - Osho & Tanimu new names

New player that the scribes of the team list are not familiar with. Hence the “anyhow” spelling.

Even on the official lists.
Anyway, it’s probably a ‘Mikel’ kind of error.

Re: SE list for March Friendlies - Osho & Tanimu new names

Good squad. Notable omissions: Chukwueze, Moffi, Ogbu, and Orban (what does he have to do in order to get into the team?) Surprising inclusions: Sadiq, Dessers, and Taminu Very odd that Sadiq (who is a reserve at Sociedad) was picked but Moffi and Orban (who are first 11 starters at their clubs) wer...
