Super Eagles coach, Sunday Oliseh, has
amended his original stance that only Nigerian players in the top
division clubs will be invited to the team during his tenure.
“We need those who are used to playing
at top tempo to serve and play for Nigeria. That is why.....
we took that
decision. And of course this applies only to field players but doesn’t
really apply to goalkeepers because goalkeepers are made of a different
breed,” he said in a new Oliseh Tv video uploaded to YouTube on Monday
and which he personally sent out via Twitter.
Oliseh’s statement at his unveiling on
July 13 to the effect that “Only first division players are the ones
that we find eligible to serve our country” generated a lot debate with
many critics insisting that the policy could not work as many of the
Nigerians abroad had dropped to lesser clubs.
Share your thoughts....thanks!
