Super Eagles gaffer, Gernot Rohr has stated that there are no more star players in the Super Eagles unlike in the past when we used to have the likes of Jay Jay Okocha, Kanu Nwankwo and others
Citing former Eagles stars ,Rohr said what is present now are a bunch of players who operate as a team.
“When you see our players, which one of them is playing in a big team?” Rohr said on Brila FM monitored in Abuja. “We don’t have anymore compared to the big players we had before.
“Where are the Okochas, Kanus and the (Vincent) Enyeamas? we don’t have them again” he said
“We have young players, have a good team with good spirit but we don’t have the stars which we had before.
“I hope we can go back to that time because now we have young players with future. But our strength is the team and I hope with our strength we can go far.
Former Super Eagles coach,late Shuaibu Amodu stirred the hornets’ nest when he declared that ‘we have average players’ after the AFCON in Mali 2002 with several stakeholders castigating him for the statement.
