Former Super Eagles coach, Christian Chukwu has charged all football loving Nigerians to respect Sunday Oliseh’s choice of invitees for the Africa Cup of Nations qualifiers against Tanzania in Dar es Salam.
The new Eagles gaffer left Watford FC, forward, Odion Ighalo, and the duo of Mikel Obi and Victor Moses amongst others in the list of foreign pros he released on Monday. Continue..
Top on Oliseh’s list are Haruna Lukman, Joel Obi and Emmanuel Emenike as well as other regulars from the Stephen Keshi era.
“I sincerely believe that Oliseh might have studied Tanzania’s video clips which informed the list of players he sent to the Nigeria Football Federation’s Technical Department before it was finally made public. Let’s see what he makes out of the players he invited,” Chukwu said.
As regards the absence of some star players, the former Eagles handler said that there is no way a coach can satisfy all fans and that the most important thing is victory on the road.
“Let me tell you, there is no list any coach can release that people won’t complain. Any coach that releases a team list, in as much as it’s for the Super Eagles, people will certainly complain.
“But the most important thing is for Oliseh to go ahead with the players he has invited and go to Tanzania and beat them on their soil in Dar es Salam.
“He has just come out with the list so let’s give him a chance and see what stuff he is made of technically.
“Maybe these players he invited will be more committed to the work at hand. So let’s see what he does with them first,” Chukwu said.
