Where are the Nigerians in the Bundesliga ?

Post by Yiba »

Gone are the days that Nigerians used to play in the Bundesliga. The days are gone with the wind. Presently, there is no talk or report of any Nigerian coming to the Bundesliga. Apart from Obasi at Schalke or Ujah for Mainz, we do not have new signings from Nigeria. Have our players become so bad ?

Yiba, what happened to Eke Uzoma?

Eke Uzoma played last for 1860 Munich in the second division before he became surplus to requirements.

My brotha can you imagine the daftness of this thread?

A whole Nigerian man wakes up in the morning and decides to base the quality of his nation's players on the number of them accepted to play in Germany!

And you wonder why we have problems!!

This is a typical CE statement without any basis whatsoever. The "off the cuff" statement we've come to expect on CE and it's readily accepted as fact.

When Ronaldo played in the EPL and got a bigger move to RM and Modric now being sought after as a result of his exposure in the EPL - a few players we can name that the EPL surely destroyed their career.

Even Ozaze that was shivering and being thrown banana in Russia or Ukraine came to the EPL and his career was instantly destroyed.

My bad, you're so right :sneaky:

You mean like it has destroyed CR7, Fabregas, Rooney, Ashley Cole, Jack Wilshere, Michael Essien, etc? :roll: :roll: :roll:

You make it sound like there has been so many. Have we ever had more than 4 at one time? I remember when Agali, Akpoberie (?sp), the guy who went to jail in France and may be Oliseh overlapped? I don't believe the Bundasliga has been a frequent destination for Naija players. May be I am wrong, happy to be educated

I concur, before majority of our players played in dutch league, french ,spain and belgium and our players played well in our national teams.

Majority of our players playing in the EPL don't repilicate the same performace in the national teams, it could be based on lack of turtoring and quality of coaching from the english managers.




From the euro cup, it shows that english players themselves have a long way to go before they can match spain, italy and germany in terms of quality of talents they produce.

Yobo’s problem is easy to analyze. His name is Omeruo. You don’t have to be a genius, just a normal guy like me to understand that we’re talking about frustration. It’s not easy for a player to see how he’s outperformed by a 19 year-old kid, but the kid is fantastic. I had the courage to play him and the problem is very simple.

Even JJ & Kanu played some of their best football in the EPL.
