Because we are too ignorant and corrupt to be able to pick the best outta them to make a good team.

DID I HEAR SOMEONE SAYING IT IS ASSUMPTION? THE TRUTH IS THAT NIGERIA IS BLESSED WITH COUNTLESS NUMBER OF PLAYERS!  YOU WOULDN'T KNOW, BECAUSE NIGERIA DOES NOT KEEP STATISTICS OR APPROPRIATE RECORDS! I STRONGLY BELIEVE THIS BECAUSE I KNOW FROM EXPERIENCE, FOR EXAMPLE,  THAT AN AVERAGE DEFUNCT BENDEL TEENAGER IS A POTENTIAL PLAYER WHILE IN LAGOS ESPECIALLY AJEGUNLE THERE ARE GOOD ONES AS WELL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

IT IS AN ESTABLISHED TRUTH THAT NIGERIA IS BLESSED WITH SO MUCH TALENTS, AND THAT INCLUDES FOOTBALL!
IN THE SOUTH SOUTH NIGERIA, THERE ARE EVEN MORE THAN THAT ESTIMATED NUMBER OF THEM, TALKLESS OF THE WHOLE OF NIGERIA! ALL THOSE SAYING IS A LIE, HAVE YOU TAKEN TIME TO STROW ROUND YOUR AREA WHEN SOME AGE GROUPS ARE PLAYING ESPECIALLY STREET SOCCER? I AM SURE YOU HAVE NOT, OTHERWISE YOU WOULDN'T HAVE FOUND THAT STATEMENT REASONABLE TO MAKE?
