Let us be fair about this, the super eagles does not have the best player in the whole Africa, have you thought about the Egyptian striker?, non of the eagles are more than him because he has created that name not on the African league but on the England were he is, even if the super eagles play against Egypt and win them we cannot still say that non of the Egyptians are more than super eagles, actually having the world best doesn't mean the country is best in football because we saw how difficult it usually be on Argentina and Portugal, so even if I'm to choose between performance and high profile players, without thinking twice performance is what I choose because at the end of tournament the question is who won?.
I don’t think I agree with you on this, maybe as a team Egypt might be better than Nigeria but individually I think Nigeria have more prolific and quality players than Egypt. I don’t think any African country right now have the attacking quality that Nigeria has. Having the likes of Victor Osimehn, Ademola lookman, victor Boniface and so more, then in the midfield the likes of iwobi, Ndidi and many more then should we talked about how well Bassey and Aina are doing in their various club.
For years Nigeria have always been struggling to play as a team and if they can get that right I think they might be a very dangerous side to play against. Winning back to back African player of the years show that there is big quality in the team.
