Not really.
In this case, this guy has some kind of ‘exceptional’ record to examine and weigh against the elite professionals of their national team.
Nothing of the sort can be said of Bameyi.
He doesn’t even appear to have a club, amateur or otherwise.

Bigpoke,

Forget Bameyi case. The issue is much bigger.

In my view, Managers must look beyond where a player plays when making a decision to invite or not. In Nigeria's case, it is erven more acute given that socio-economic circumstances indicate that players do not make club choices based on how high ranked a club is. There are exceptional players outside the big leagues and we know that current state of scouting, anywhere in the world, is merely scratching the surface in a word where form flows and ebbs constantly. Those who understand that better have a wider dragnet in order to discover deserving talent. Call them up and let them compete in camp.

Bielsa believes he can make a difference given his own managerial pedigree and he is not enamored by names or leagues but knows talent when he sees it, regardless of where the talent resides.
The difficulties of statistical thinking describes a puzzling limitation of our mind: our excessive confidence in what we believe we know, and our apparent inability to acknowledge the full extent of our ignorance and the uncertainty of the world we live in. We are prone to overestimate how much we understand about the world and to underestimate the role of chance in events -- Daniel Kahneman (2011), Winner of the Nobel Prize in Economics

Context is everything...

The 21-man squad will be made up of local players from the first division, with the likes of Darwin Nunez and Federico Valverde in the mix.

But Bielsa is unable to bring in players from Nacional, Penarol, Liverpool, Racing and Danubia as they have commitments in the Copa Libertadores and Copa Sudamericana competitions.

Form is temporary; Class is Permanent!
Liverpool, European Champions 2005.

We watched this very boring video, 500 times, of Sacchi doing defensive drills, using sticks and without the ball, with Maldini, Baresi and Albertini. We used to think before then that if the other players are better, you have to lose. After that we learned anything is possible – you can beat better teams by using tactics." Jurgen Klopp

We are still waiting to see Bameyi’s record. How many games played, against who, number of goals scored, number of assists etc.

Does Bamayi even play football? I think I play more football on average than him.
