But we cant find upto 5 players in the Top 5 Leagues.

And it should not just be in a top 5 league club but playing regularly. Not bench warmers like Musa, Simi Nwankwo, Emenike and co. I believe the following leagues would suffice:

1. SPain
2. England
3. Germany
4. Italy
5. France

6. Portugal
7. Turkey
8. Belgium
9. Russia
10.Netherlands
11.Ukraine

At this rate, I rate us at par with Iceland in the group. with Argentina and Croatia ahead of us. We have our work cut out. Considering the form of Moses and Iwobi lately I am not sure. The only thing I can say is both Moses and Iwobi tend to take more risks playing for Nigeria than their respective clubs. This can either be a good thing or backfire miserably.
WE ARE ALL TOGETHER!!

I'm encouraged when I look at teams that beat the SE lately like Sudan, Uganda, RSA, and the 2 Congos. Clubs na factor, but not an overbearing one.

Croatia has not made it out group stage since Suker led them to a 3rd place finish at their 1st appearance in a world cup in France 1998.
