With the African Nations Championship over in South Africa, coach Stephen Keshi has been urged by fellow ex-internationals, Nicholas Ukadike and Franklin Howard to end experimentation with home based players but pay more attention on building his team for the world cup proper. Ukadike, who spoke in an interview said “I believe is over with the idea of giving more players chance to prove their worth in friendly matches or in pre competition events because time is no more there to play with. He should focus fully on building our team for the world cup.Whoever he, Keshi has discovered good for the team during CHAN, he can make use of. Speaking in a similar vein, Howard, now handler of Shooting Stars Sports Club of Ibadan said it is more important now for Keshi to build the squad with players he has than scout for more. Whatever he can do to make Nigeria have good representation at the World Cup should be his primary focus and nothing of looking for more players. I believe we have enough already and there is need to get the players to blend, make them psychologically, mentally and physically prepared and ready for a world cup action in Brazil, Howard stated.”
