3 top Nigerian players that might not make it to Russia

Post by chief nfachairman »

Due to Injury

Joel Obi: TOp quality player that hasnt made it to the very top due to injury, long long injuries. He was back this season in the Serie A, posted MOTM performances, scored goals but went down again and has been out for 4 weeks. Its not beans to play for Inter Milan when they were still top.

Isaac Success: Powerful, skillful and quick, had two powerful season in the La Liga but was shipped to Watford as against Athletico Madrid offer. IN Watford, he has been injured for 80% of his stay in the EPL. No doubt that if this kid stays fit, he would destroy the Premier League. ROhr is a big fan of his (according to Owngoal :biggrin:).

Nura Abdullai: He's been injured ever since he joined ROma. Stays free off injury and makes it to the ROma bench every match. He was about to get his first 11 break and injury hit. He is fit now and back to the Roma bench immediately. Very fragile player.


If they were fit, my line up would be

***********************Kayode/ Simy/ whoever

Isaac Success**************************************V.MOses

***************************Mikel*********************

*****************Obi********************Ndidi************

Aina*********Balogun***************Troost*************Nura


*************************Eyeama*******************


Subs:
*Ozoho
*Ezenwa
Onyekuru
Dennis B
Iwobi as back up for Mikel
Onazi
Esiti
Awaziem
Shehu
Elderson

Don't think any of the 3 were seriously on Rohr's radar - so, no loss here

a player manages to have a good/decent game in Europe, and suddenly he makes the world cup line up of every internet coach, just when I thought I've seen it all...expect more to come.

So you will not take Kelechi and Bazee to the tournament . Though Kelechi has done nothing recently to merit his inclusion

Enyeama
Shehu, Balogun, Ekong, Elderson
Onazi, Mikel, Ndidi
Iwobi, Ighalo, V Moses

The team is set, just need to continue to build chemistry, add depth and get a goalkeeper.

Invite the young players to camp, get them games in friendlies, build for the present and the future.

I am not buying the Aina hype, I watched him play at Hull, defensive lapses.
Winners do it the right way.
