CAMP THREAD (THIS WEEK, WE PREPARE FOR WAR!!!)

[bret- hart]

I’m at a loss for words! I really hope this is just a prank. I can’t imagine national team soccer players having to share a hotel room or worse, a bed in this day and age. If this is true, NFF must be investigated.

Yes o. Meanwhile the likes of Ibrahim Sanusi and Gausau are in 5 start hotels with their wives and concubines. enjoying our hard earned tax payer money yet they expect these players to perform magic like Messi. God will punish all of them at the NFF.

Thats a single bed. Most likely a joke.

Yesterday, we saw videos of Osimhen going to his own room and then he asked Papa Daniel "You don get your key? Go room to rest o." If Papa Daniel can get his own key for his own room, I am sure Aina and Iwobi have the same privilege.

I'm hearing Chelle has banned bloggers and content creators from coming into the camp

Now this is a COACH

We truly suffered all these year sha. Our players were using national team invitation as vacation and hangout sessions.

Dem sey even boniface had his blogger on the training pitch taking videos of him for skit. Finidi, Peseiro, una no try at all.

NFF is broke and the country’s economy is in shambles.

My brother, I find it hard to believe that NFF can't afford $18K to $19K ($156 per night) for 23 players over five days for a World Cup qualifier.

I think that you got it right bro. Some things just shouldn’t be excused, especially in this day and age. It’s wild how people will go to great lengths to defend mismanagement instead of demanding better.

I do not believe for a minute that this is true. It is most likely a joke.

In any case, one would expect that players are paired in each room. That is not a financial issue but mostly a need to create bonding among players. As far as I am aware, the NFL players share rooms when they are on trip and so also do most soccer players. In fact, the only major team sports where players have a room by themselves is the NBA after a recent collective bargaining agreement. This is just based on information per those sports.

That was just a joke but I hope you realise that most national teams do pair their players in rooms. England players normally room in twos, Argentina did it at the last World Cup. It is normal practice to encourage bonding.

Are there women pretending to be men on this forum? my goodness, you folks are busy crying over a freaking bed , whereas your SE are 4 points behind Rwanda. Talk about ADHD. It is so easy to distract gullible Nigerians . What The Freak has some pathetic error in a room got to to with trying to focus on the football match ?

Thank goodness EC restricts the media. I am getting tired of the level of discuss here and how easily men in their 50s are so easli distracted over 20 something year old making goofy videos about some bed.

Thanks to the forumer who posted about weaknesses in corners etc. You people should learn to stick to the football instead of rubbish . We've been on this forum for more than 20 years haba e don do

2026 WORLD CUP QUALIFIERS: TROOST-EKONG CONFIRMED AS CAPTAIN BY ERIC CHELLE



Super Eagles coach Eric Chelle will formalize William Troost-Ekong's appointment as captain at the team's next training camp in Rwanda, according to our colleagues at Africafootunited.

At 32, Ekong succeeds Ahmed Musa, Nigeria's most-capped player with 110 caps. This move marks the end of Musa's tenure after several years of leadership.

Ekong, who plays in Saudi Arabia, had already taken on an interim captain role during Nigeria's 2023 Africa Cup of Nations campaign, where they reached the final.

Although he supported Musa, whom he considered the official captain, Ekong was ready to take the reins as soon as the opportunity arose.

The central defender made his debut for the Super Eagles in 2015, in a match against Chad in Kaduna.

Well…well…well… no matte where you’re going there you are. This one of , if not, the most tightly controlled and disciplined SE camp I’ve ever seen. Nattin, absolutely Nattin is coming out from camp except for pics and videos of players arriving at the hotel or airport. No interviews by big breasted bloggers, No commissioners and ministers parading the hotel and training pitch. And, no Alhaji’s giving speeches to encourage the team with winning bonuses he stole from his state.Even OWN had to interview a Malian journalist to find out what MIGHT have happened in the first training session yesterday. They had no clue As for CE, it’s time to shift focus to possible lineups and predictions. long may it continue.
