What we saw in the African Nations championship competition from the super eagles is an effect of the flaws that has been taken to be normal in the grassroot football in terms of scouting and picking thr best skillful players to make the national team at all levels of international competitions. The best are ignored while mediocres are giving opportunity to represent. What an embarrassing stat
I disagree with you a little on this even though we know that the grassroots football is our major setback. The selection process of the apex team couldn't have been influenced by the grassroots selection since the national team coach is at liberty to choose any Nigerian player from any league all Iver the world. His decision at that level is not influenced by any factor such as tribe and ethnicity but pure based on what he feels is best for his squad.
