Chief Coach of Nigeria’s Super Eagles, Stephen Keshi has declared
that he is not sure whether any of the home-based player that won the
bronze medal of the just concluded Africa Nations Championship, CHAN,
can make his squad for the 2014 FIFA World Cup in Brazil in June.
Although
four of the players have been pencilled down to be called to camp ahead
of the World Cup, Keshi noted that he cannot guarantee that any of them
will have a shirt to represent Nigeria at the World Cup where Nigeria
had been grouped against Argentina, Iran and Bosnia.
“Though I
have in mind of calling four of the players that played at CHAN in South
Africa to camp ahead of the World Cup; for any of them to play in the
World Cup, it is not my decision but how well they prove themselves”
“It
won’t be easy because the competition for World Cup shirts will be
tough, only the best is sure of making the final list,” said Keshi when
the bronze medal winning Eagles returned from CHAN Sunday night.

I agree with Stephen Keshi's idea.None of de players at CHAN shld even think of playing for Nigeria at de world cup.These guys wasted dia chances and dey played nonsense.So,wats now de guarantee dat dey wont do same wen dey face teams like Argentina,Iran,Bosnia Herzegovinia,Uruguay,Portugal,etc?Dey will just faint ooo.But like Keshi said,he's willing to give any of dem a chance 2 play @ world cup if dey prove theirslvs worthy of putting on de Nigerian jersey to play football.Altho' some of dem tried shaa;But dey seriously gambled with our chances of winning CHAN.I just hope dat dey have learnt their lessons and i pray dat Nigeria will get to de world cup finals.If God wills,we will lift dat trophy as winners of FIFA 2014 World Cup.
