Apart from the barrage of criticism that greeted the unveiling of the jerseys which the Super Eagles will wear for the 2014 FIFA World Cup, another issue that has generated heated arguments in Nigerian football circles is whether coach Stephen Keshi should uphold or rescind his verdict that Ikechukwu Uche will not make the Super Eagles squad for Brazil. As the FIFA World Cup inches nearer, I strongly believe that the Villarreal forward represents a good option for the Keshi-led technical crew who dream of a brilliant showing in Brazil
especially at a time when the country is yet to recover from the shocking news of Bright Dike’s unavailability due to injury .Following his consistent performances in La Liga this season and with the World Cup on the horizon, do the Eagles' hopes in Brazil rest on the shoulders of the Villarreal man more so considering the idea that Ike had passed kishe first rule for FIFA World Cup selection i think he deserve a chance?
Though Uche may not be among the top-three highest goal-scorers in Super Eagles history, he has carved a niche for himself as the Nigerian Miroslav Klose. Quick on the ball, nimble footed, powerful and industrious on the field of play – words cannot express how best to describe the Super Eagles ‘Rescue Marshal’ whose appearances resemble those of a pocket dynamite.
