Re: Martins Got a Hatrick today

.....Martins has had his time / chances with the GWG and wasted his opportunities . 9ja won the nations cup without him ,9ja won Bronze @ the Olympics without him, 9ja won silver @ the Olympics without him, 9ja got to the 2nd of the last World Cup without him. 9ja qualified for the 2018 World Cup without him. During the qualification series 9ja had no problems scoring so why the panic?
Martins was evaluated for the last World Cup and deemed not good enough
Martins is clinical in front of goal but for 9ja tends to go missing. We will never discover new talent if we keep on calling up old washed up players everytime we think have a crises . We have so many players that need to be tested rather than revert back some one that has represented us in the past but never made an impact. How many goals did he score at the World Cup in South Africa? How many goals did he score during the nations cup tournaments. The most painful was the defeat to Ghana both him and Osaze failed!!! Yes I acknowledge he is doing well in China & congratulations on scoring a hat-trick versus whoever...... but Martins time came and went and it was never fruitful or eventful, meaning we won jack when he was part of the team in his prime.
And if we are using form in previous competitions to rule out players then the likes of Mikel and Moses wouldn't make the cut based on their previous subpar WC performances.
2002 we decided to use the World Cup to discover new players.
At every World Cup since 98 we have decided to use the World Cup to try (discover) new players.
Are we the only country that uses the World Cup to discover new talent?
E be like say dem do us.

Re: Martins Got a Hatrick today
My brother, it is very sad. Many here have a way of trying to make sense out of senselessness. What is most worrisome is that this could be a logical sampling of the general "educated" population.Cellular wrote:Na ax dem o.maceo4 wrote:I never get this argument, is the world cup a youth tournament or something?

Re: Martins Got a Hatrick today
This the problem I have with you guys. You claim at his advance age he is now better than when he was at his peak because he scored 1 hatrick in a questionable standard league. Martins has played for Nigeria at the ANC 2008, 2010 World Cup 2010 we did not go passed the quarter finals or the group stage of the World Cup. The World Cup that Angola beat to Martins could not lead us to qualify.maceo4 wrote:I never get this argument, is the world cup a youth tournament or something?

I remember the clamour for Benadict claiming he was top scorer in Austria then there was Ijeh top scorer in Sweden. Then we had Joseph Akpala top scorer in Belgium. Now a very old slow Martins is the answer to Nigeria’s attack because he scored in China. I know Ighalo plays in China but he is younger but yes a poor striker. I would rather Rohr look to our upcoming Strikers rather than revert to tried and tested and honestly not good enough.

Re: Martins Got a Hatrick today
Who are the young ones that are doing better than Martins that should be taken? You need to stop focusing on age and base selection on form period as this isn’t an age grade competition...Flex Swift wrote:This the problem I have with you guys.

We were the youngest team in Brazil and again looking like the youngest team in Russia and yet any in-form player who has been in the frame in the past is seen as disposable and has to give way to 'the young ones'.
Just a few years ago there were those arguing that JMO was 'old' and was no longer relevant.

Re: Martins Got a Hatrick today
Success is now starting for Malaga, Awoniyi is another option as is Umar. If Martins were scoring in Italy, Spain, Germany or EPL i would be the first to clamour for his inclusion but I think the standard of football in the China league is low see as Ighalo has not scored for Nigeria since the first leg against Cameroon.maceo4 wrote:Who are the young ones that are doing better than Martins that should be taken?

Don't you see how it seems illogical for him to be a shoo-in while someone with the same stats in the same league in the same marksman role is an automatic shut-out ?
And all this simply because of age?
You too look am nah.
The only arguments we are hearing which I am sure you'd agree are just 'feelings', is that "he has been given his chance before"
We all have and still have great hopes for the likes of Isaac Success and Awoniyi BUT THEY ARE NOT READY.
Their mate Iheanacho that we all felt was 'ready' as far back as 2 years ago is even struggling to justify his place in the squad. Their other mate Ndidi is doing extremely well but we all know that he is going to get even better with age and experience and we do not know how he will fare on the big stage. But at least in his department it is guaranteed he will be surrounded by the more experienced Mikel, J'Obi and even Onazi.
Like someone said, you don't go to the WC to go and 'try out' promising talent. You go with some tried and tested talent and then you do a calculated trade-off between raw talent and experience.
Nobody is going to look to the young shoulders of all these kids for help when the going gets tough.
We need some veterans to steady the ship in trying times which are sure to come, and right now the only capable veteran is Mikel.
Musa is no leader, Onazi is struggling to justify his place and Echejiele is virtually out of the picture.
