I recall reading somewhere that Muri Ogunbiyi (despite the presence of Yorubas in the Benin Republic) has Nigerian citizenship. But he may (perhaps by residence) have also acquired citizenship in Benin. Hence why he is qualified to play for Benin. Did it ever occur to you that Muri is Beniniose but...

..he scored a hat trick in his last game. Four goals in 2 games - not bad.

That is the most useless defense I have seen in a long time, anybody would score against that team. Shaharx - thanks for the post, and don't mind them. Please continue to update us about Ogabona's progress. They forget that the quality of the defending is not Ogabona's problem/fault. When Alan Shea...

we have enough playmaking luxury players (Okocha, Kalu, Osaze, Kanu, Ikedia, Shuaibu, Yaro Yaro). We don't need another one.

The Benin player at Enyimba (probably not for much longer!) is Muri Ogunbiyi. Although I'm not quite sure how he became a citizen of Benin!
It may have been a case of "can't get into the SE...so I'll play for someone else".

Thought, I agree with you. The guy should have been on the list of invitees from day one. I can't believe guys like Ezenwa, Ikedia and Akwuegbu got in ahead of him.

....we'd do better with a Sunday league GK...than with Enyeama. Every time the ball goes near him, I have a minor cardiac arrest. ANYTHING can happen with him in goal.... even in the most seemingly innocuous situation.

...of that home based bunch. Ishola Shuaibu and Bob Usim are good enough to make the squad. Enyeama is not even good enough to be called up to the training camp. .....and Enyimba's outstanding defensive midfielder Onyekachi Okonkwo SHOULD DEFINITELY have been called up. He may be one of Nigeria's be...

Yeah you're right......we should go with one of the other "successful" coaches who have coached Naija over the past decade during which we have not won a senior trophy.

Enyeama is talented enough. Whether he can step up and have a great Nations Cup is the question. You must be joking. Enyeama is the worst of the lot and it is a miracle that Enyimba managed to win the ACL with him in the side. He does not belong anywhere near the SE. The guy is dodgy! His handling ...

He has no chance of getting a work permit.

err.....when did he get "16 full international caps"?!! That would mean that he's been an SE regular for the past few years! Have Nigeria even played 16 full internationals in the past two years?!

if okoronkwo is not fit...then enakhire /orjinta will step in.....we have depth .....Romanus Orjinta does not represent "depth"! I don't understand why Afolabi was not called up. We'd have more depth if we had cover in the form of Afolabi and Okoronkwo. Enakharire should start....due to O...

...and the guy didn't tolerate any nonsense from Enyimba's "star" players either and he did not hesitate to wield the axe on past/present captains Vincent Enyeama and Romanus Orjinta .....as well as dropping big name players for tactical reasons in the ACL final against Ismaili. The man wi...

...they build him up...then they bash him!

Somebody say "de ja vu".....and Ogbeche, Yobo, Okocha, Jag, Yak, Kanu, Justice, Utaka.... I wonder's who's next for the "shrine mercilessly, then bash mercilessly" syndrome on this forum!

...of the current bunch. The Ghanian playing in Greece: Derek Boateng. A star in the making and the potential African heir-apparent to Jay Jay for trickery. He ran rings round Man U in a CL game a couple of years ago.

...I just KNEW this would happen.....I recall sending a post about 4 months ago saying that forumites would turn on Martins once it appeared that he was anything less than the new Pele.

...Marko, they all DID play in Sweden and spent their formative years there too. At the moment one of the hottest and most sought after young players on the planet is Kim Kallstrom...who plays in...you guessed it.... Sweden! Perhaps then Naija should also dump Jag because he plays in the "third...

...trouble follows Ikpeba everywhere.

...but he is Oyinbo so that automatically makes him a better coach than Ikhana, Amodu and CCC put together. I really hope u're being sarcastic.... :shock: :shock: :x ....of course! Wasn't it obvious.
