World Cup 2014: Peter Odemwingie's recall to the Nigeria squad could prove a masterstroke by coach Stephen Keshi
Peter Odemwingie brings something to the table that every coach requires of players going into a tournament - the ability to play and excel in multiple positions
By Colin Udoh, World Cup Nation: Nigeria
Channels television, by far the biggest and most respected news channel in Nigeria, described it as 'the return of the prodigal son'. And it could well turn out to be Stephen Keshi's singular pivotal selection decision.
For the uninitiated, this is in reference to the recall of striker Peter Osaze Odemwingie to the Nigeria squad after nearly two years. Few will disagree.
Not even Odemwingie himself, who took to his favourite channel of communication, Twitter, to joke wryly about it in Nigerian pidgin English 'Anyhow una call am I am pleased to be back', loosely meaning 'Anyhow you people call it, I am pleased to be back.'
Nigeria have struggled to find goals under Keshi. Mostly because Emmanuel Emenike is the primary source of goals, and his absence, for whatever reason, endows the Nigeria strikeforce with the notorious efficiency of the country's power supply.
Brown Ideye, long his acknowledged sidekick, is a skillful, hard and honest worker. But prolific he is not. At least not in Nigeria colours. So, after his quiet apology to the Nigeria federation and to Keshi, Odemwingie's return was only the next, logical if somewhat bold, step.
Many hope that this will mark the beginning of the end of a saga that has been two years in the making, although it could be argued that the tendrils took root much earlier.
He had fallen out with previous coaches in the past, running the gauntlet from Amodu Shuaibu, through Berti Vogts to Samson Siasia (twice) before his final tiff with current boss Stephen Keshi.Which explains the reservations in certain quarters that Odemwingie may only be putting up a humble front in order to buy himself a seat on the plane to Brazil, and remains a loose cannon, a simmering volcano waiting to erupt at the first hint of tinder.
As Media Officer of the Nigeria national team, as well as a long-time friend, I played a big part in getting Odemwingie to embrace Twitter.The first thing he told me when he came into the team camp was: "I will give you lots of trouble." To which my response was: "Before you tweet any of your crazy stuff, let me know."
We had a good laugh about it. But I am braced for trouble.Few journalists know Odemwingie as much as I do. We have been friends for over 12 years and there are few more honest players around the block.Peter Osaze Odemwingie does not back off from a fight. More precisely, Peter Osaze Odemwingie does not back off from a fight if he believes he is in the right. Or there is some injustice.It is at once his greatest strength, and his biggest flaw.
He did not go berserk just because he was left out of the 2013 Nations Cup squad. He did it because he felt betrayed.
Two days before the squad was announced, he had assurances he would be in it. And made personal and professional arrangements. And then he wasn't.
While that does not justify his outburst, it does offer some mitigation. But that was a slightly different man. Osaze is now husband and a father, and he has matured well. Old things are gradually passing away.
Not completely, though. And for that Nigerians should all be thankful. Because the team needs that old Osaze back, too. Just sans the hemorrhaging lip.
Odemwingie will speak his mind and be done with it, then get on with a good laugh. There is no baggage with him. What you see is what you get.
And he will fight. Every step of the way. It is that quality that endeared him to a nation. During those dark days when fans slammed the Super Eagles for lack of trying, Odemwingie was regarded by all and sundry as 'the most committed' Super Eagle. It was like a trademark.
Because he would leave it out there on the pitch. Every single time. And if there is one quality Keshi has consistently stressed he needs his current posse of Eagles players to have, it is that.
Additionally, Odemwingie brings something else to the table that every coach requires of players going into a tournament: the ability to play and excel at multiple positions.
He can play as a lone striker, as a part of a two-man strike force, as a support striker, as a wide forward/midfielder on either flank with a two-footed ability, or as a creative midfielder.
Just like Emenike, he can unload with venomous precision from any direction and position, with either foot and is no slouch at taking on, and beating, his man.
Age may have slowed him down a mite, but he will track back with the quickest of them, and his grit remains undulled.
Going into a tournament with a personnel ceiling, where injuries and suspensions can decimate squads at short notice, multiple-faceted players like Odemwingie are an absolute essential.
Which may explain the collective sense of relieved acceptance of his return.
The choice was between Ideye and Odemwingie. Keshi ditched the tried, and picked the tested, who will now have to prove he can be trusted.

Amodus team had been spat upon, anything they did was dismissed as insignificant To see the team going from playing brilliant football against Egypt in the first half of their ANC group game to the cautious fear laden play against Zambia was sad.

He says that we are currently "brainwashed" into believing that the Premier League is the best competition in the world, and that we are now a long way off dominating the Champions League again.

I think Spain’s by far the best league.

Yeah we saw that in 2010 with Obagoal especially against Argentina. Osaze is only good when he does not have to think.He can play as a lone striker, as a part of a two-man strike force, as a support striker, as a wide forward/midfielder on either flank with a two-footed ability, or as a creative midfielder.
Give him a clear through ball at goal and gbam! He will come good.
