Post by Tbite »

People say that we have players that have played age grade but didn't have success in the national team?

but when I look at the SE, actually a large percentage of our players do come from the youth setup! (u17,u20,u23) Including our ANC winning team!

Now I don't know when these players were discovered - but as far as players having success that have played age grade, well we have too many of those players to count.

So the thing about our players not having success or going on to play in the SE is a Huge myth, unless you people mean players that were strictly discovered in those teams. I am not megapro or E2 - I won't be taking the time to speculate when and where they were recognized or called up.

In fact it is primarily the NPFL players that are even reducing the percentage! Otherwise it would even be the vast majority!

If the argument is a question of discovery....well can somebody like E2, megapor, sunset or patrick etc show the statistics to prove that.
Buhari, whose two terms thankfully ground to a constitutional halt in May. (One thing both democracies have going for them is that their leaders, however bad, have only two terms to swing the wrecking ball.) Under Buhari, growth per head also plunged to 0. An economic agenda drawn from the dusty pages of a 1970s protectionist handbook failed to do the trick. Despite Buhari’s promise to tame terrorism and criminality, violence flourished. Despite his reputation for probity, corruption swirled. FT
