You might recall that Eze was initially predicted to fully recover ‘in the new year’.“Obviously he’s a talented player but he’s still a long way to go from his best. We need to remind ourselves that he will need time to return to what he was because of the injury. He will get there.”
Maybe that was a more accurate prediction after all.

Pinnick and his Waffiman approach is a guarantee of failure. The likes of JayJay and Kanu should talk to the lad.

That's a 4 or 6 for me. I love medium pace bowlers and spinners. I use them to add to my runs!

Re: Olise! Olise!! Olise!!!
He will get more PT as he recovers, but he more so than Olise actually shows his naija side and you can see him being able to integrate more than the Frenchie Olise who doesn’t appear to be in tune with his naija heritage at least from what he chooses to post on social media.gochino wrote: ↑Sun Jan 09, 2022 7:43 amI think Eze is more talented and creative, he was even selected for the Euros but got injured.

So you think that FIFA will fast track them into a new National allegiance with 9 months to spare.vancity eagle wrote: ↑Sat Jan 08, 2022 8:36 pmIf we can win AFCON it will be a draw for players to be a part of our set up. Especially if we qualify for WC, then people will naturally want to be a part of something positive.
If we crash out early it will just highlight the chaotic and unstable nature of our national team setup. They would want to stay away.
Rumors that he favored Algeria over us. Would them winning the 2019 AFCON have anything to do with that ?

Olise doesn't want to play for Nigeria. If you want to engage in mental masturbation about the possibility, please knock yourself out
Re: Olise! Olise!! Olise!!!
Until he has played for another country, or you produce his citizenship renunciation certificate, he remains eligible to play for Nigeria, hence any post about him belongs on Eagles Nest. Personally, I don't care whether he plays for Nigeria or not. But discussions about his eligibility belongs here.highbury wrote: ↑Fri May 03, 2024 5:46 pmUna no dey ever learn.

I think that, psychologically, some of them may be close to considering Nigeria. Why? First, their no.1 option can never be Nigeria given lessons about socialization. Those lessons are yet to disappoint. However, because a few of those lads are headed towards the end of their football career without real opportunity elsewhere, Nigeria would now come into focus with the allure of consistent international appearances.

Re: Olise! Olise!! Olise!!!
Just so you guys know, there are at least two England-capped players that are already having regrets for making the choices they made. Too late.
I have it on very good authority from a very credible source close to them.
You see, the younger a person is, the more gullible they are. We all get wise the more mature we get.
Recent studies are showing that the human brain is not fully developed until the mid 20s.
So in a sense, you can’t blame them. I know some really crazy things I did in my late teens and early twenties.

It really should not be surprising and it isn't about wisdom per se. As a young player, at the height of your performance you think you are very good and that very confidence is what makes you good. Thus many think they can achieve the wish to play for their first choice. Unfortunately, it may not happen and as their career goes towards the end, the lure of international soccer makes them now think of Nigeria, their next option. Logical, it is difficult to see an occasion where a highly talented player in England will choose Nigeria over England. It just won't happen. The best way to get that to happen is to chase after them very early when England is not even an option and then hope that they will agree and later blossom.

All I know is that as a young man in your early twenties with ‘the world at your feet’, it’s a heady cocktail which can be hard to manage. Thinking about your medium to long term future can be a real challenge and like a child in a sweet shop, you are more likely to grab at the more obvious things right under your nose.
A few years later - and not necessarily as your career is “coming to an end” - you might be in a more rational position to analyse the same scenario you did a few years earlier and you could come to a far more mature and often different decision.
There aren’t many situations in life that force you at such a young, under the pressure of time and in the public space to make such a far reaching, irrevocable decision as choosing a ‘football nationality’.
Not getting married, or buying your first house, having a kid or even signing for a club. If I had had the kind of fame and fortune at 22 that some of these young footballers have, only God knows what I would have done with my life.
It’s quite peculiar.

Sure that it doesn't have to be at end of one's career that the realization sets in. The key is that it can set in but it explains why top talents born in places like UK do not often choose Nigeria first.
For me, I always wonder why some of these lads do not file a class suit against FIFA. The rule is ripe for a challenge. Why is it that dual citizenship and multiple passports exist yet FIFA continues to insist on "one country" attachment? I hope that a class may one day challenge its legality.

FIFA sees itself as unchallengeable, but it shouldn’t be the case.
In a world in which it now seems acceptable to change your gender to allow you compete in a less competitive environment (and I doubt FIFA is complaining right now, nor will they be any time soon), it boggles the mind why a player cannot do something as innocent as change nationalities.
Anyway, I suspect the age limit will be raised to something like 25 in the near future, because the very thing FIFA is trying to prevent in very young gullible players is still happening to slightly older players for whom at the moment, there is no going back.
