 Still, the breakfast in Plastivia, Africa. We look at the possibility of having Victor Moses back in the team now nearly four years after quitting the Super Eagles following the Niger's first round exit, the 2018 World Cup. A former Liverpool star and Chelsea win back Victor Moses is set to return to the national team. This is as Austin Aguavo, the interim head coach of the Super Eagles, says he's persuading Moses to come out of retirement. Whether we like it or not, in quoting his words, Victor Moses will bring some value. And this is according to some report, but right now he's playing in Russia. We all know the problem with Ukraine and Russia. I'm happy to say that my conversation with him is settled. According to him, while Moses is not part of the squad, the will face Ganner 2022 World Cup playoff, the 2013 African Cup of Nation winner is part of his plan. Now, what does the return of Victor Moses hold for the Super Eagles? We have Maitey George joining the conversation. He's a sports journalist and communications director, Van Dresden FC. It's good to have you join us, Maitey George. Thank you very much, Maitey. It's great to be here again. Okay, so let's get to the crux of this. It's been getting a lot of fans talking and Nigerians reacting to the fact that I've always hinted of having Victor Moses back. Now, the big question is, why do we have to get players who have said that they're retired? They've actually gone away. I mean, we're looking at four years. Why don't we look at using what we have or more like having more talent, new talents on board? Well, thanks a lot for the invite once again. I think that we have talked about this in lots of circles after Ego Havam released a list that had Victor Moses who literally walked out of the team, so to say, after the World Cup. I'm here once for Nigeria was at the World Cup, where he is called a goal. I mean, Nigeria was on our way to eliminating Argentina in that game. I was live at the stadium in St. Petersburg, Russia, where incidentally, Moses now plays. So according to him, he likes the style of Victor. Moses has been an excellent player, running up the wings, getting goals as well. Hasn't got so many in his playing career, but I think that he brings a lot to the team as well, especially in supply. When you see the likes of Moses Simon now, the other Moses, you kind of remember Victor Moses as well, especially when he hit the peak during his days with Chelsea. Well, Ego Havam is, he's called Dars knows to do the job. Even though he's on an interim basis for now, he has lined up some players new and old in codes that could do the job for him. And if he feels that Victor Moses can do the job, why not? He's played regularly at Moscow and Russia. And according to Ego Havam, he has Moses on his future plans. Well, the first hurdle is, it took him a moment there. So that would be determined if Victor Moses would even get back to the team, but he's elected the whole Nigeria now, that he's bringing it back to the team. And we just want to wait and see how that unfolds. Moses has called only two girls since he joined Spatak Moscow last season. Like I said earlier, his primary objective is not to score goals. He's a winger and he's still very much, you know, athletic. Even at 31, he brings stuff to the team. He brings things that, you know, lots of vibrancy to the team. He wasn't asked to leave the national team. He says he was not going to play anymore. Many people took that as a slap. We've had a number of players who have walked out of the team to say, emanicated that at some point when he was still expected to, you know, to fire and also in this for the Algeria. We also had the issue with Vincent de Yama. We knew that was part of, you know, a scuffle between him and Sonia Olesia. So we're penciling down Victor Moses. For me, it's, I don't think it's a bad idea, but, you know, we have to cross the horde of us and which is Ghana. And then we'll see what happens after that. We'll definitely come to Ghana and find out if we will be able, you know, to withstand Ghana. However, but let's also stay, you know, with the issue of Victor Moses coming back on board. Now, and if you look at it, the query over time, the reason why Gennet war is still not, you know, with the Super Eagles would be the fact that a lot of persons have queried the fact that we lack, you know, tactics. And so if you talk about a tactical manager, he was a fantastic coach, you know, and all of that. But, you know, the tactics is what it is. Now you would agree with me that he, Moses is a winger. And do you think that looking at the the formation now of, I mean, the theme that we have, we seem to have fantastic player. But do we need to introduce a winger, you know, to the play now when you have, you know, orders on board? That's, that's an excellent question. Because I didn't want to look man, interestingly, whom Nigeria has been quoting for a long time, finally just agreed to play for Nigeria. So and he's a winger. You know, the issue with Lukman looks similar to that of Victor Moses, you know, back in 2012, when we were trying to get him to play for us after he played for the England on the 17 and on the 20. So it's quite similar. Lukman is like the new victim, Moses. So I expect that Edwabon is probably just trying to see if he can get someone who could score goals and also, you know, replace Lukman, so to say. I'm not sure what his tactics would be, maybe to start Victor Moses ahead of Lukman. But, you know, when you go through all that hassle to get a Lukman, he definitely will want to start him. So that's that's been the snack, the little question there that, you know, why don't we go for all out attackers and not just wingers? But just in fact that Victor Moses does not have score goals and the experience that he brings. I think that, like Wabon is particular about experience, you know, Lukman is a very young lad, you know, might have not definitely has not faced this sort of situation before, you know, going to the World Cup if we qualify and also playing against the very big sides, even though he does that week in week out in, you know, in, you know, England, but playing against national stars. I think it's the experience that Wabon is looking at. We also have Moses Simon on the other side. Well, definitely he's covered, but Moses Simon also hasn't been to the World Cup, just like that Victor Moses did. Remember Moses Simon was dropped just, you know, some weeks before the World Cup in Russia, which Victor Moses attended. So I think it's the experience part. And we're just hoping that he's right at this one, especially as he has said that Victor Moses has agreed to come back. It's a good thing, you know, we can just say, okay, let's let's forget them if they walk out of the team. Remember, you know, during Halo 2, they tried to bring him back. It's a harmony. And it's something that Wabon said as well. He talked about pacifying, which I really queried. Yes, you want to make everything good. You feel some people were very angry. You know, how do we treat it with a national TV? He said that for the likes of Ogei Onasi, whom I'm definitely not sure, you know, he can bench anyone on that side. Onasi has also been recalled, which is quite interesting. You know, a table as well has been recalled. I think that this players, according to him, weren't treated so well. So he wants to give them another opportunity. Okay, let's see if we can bring some form and dexterity to the team. And not just with the fact that people would say that, oh, well, they got angry and they left, you know, and maybe, you know, the national team did nothing about it. As the man in charge, I think he wants harmony. Don't forget, tactically, he has also brought in, you know, revived the wing play. That's why Moses Simon was doing a great job right there. You know, the flanks is also giving them freedom of expression as well. So that could work for Victor Moses, just as his work for Moses. Simon experienced, I think, you know, come to play when we're playing at the World Cup. And Moses Simon has that ahead of the other wing. So, I mean, like I said, that's just where to see how that goes once we qualify or if we qualify. Well, so let's also talk about the fact that you have a Chukwaze also in the system. Some people are saying that the reason that there's a recall for Victor Moses would probably be because Chukwaze might not be, yes, we know he's quite young and not so much of the experience, if you want to say, but maybe he's not leaving up to expectations. Because we're also looking at the potentials in the club already and the fact that rather than, you know, recycle, you know, old people, but we understand the experience bad. But why don't you look for, well, looking at 31 now, he's 31, compared to at the time where he left, he was 27. I mean, age, you cannot take that away. Well, I mean, you know, yes, you can take age away, but just two days ago, we spoke at Zima 34 and look at the Modus 36, combined to defeats, you know, PSG messulously that had messier in it. So those experienced players, those are old players in codes, if you want to call them that. And in every national team, you definitely will have, you know, some of these players who are quite older, you have a Musa now who, you know, who is a captain of the side. And that's also one of the remnants of the 2013 Cup of Nations win. We had in there, we have Musa and of course, Victor Moses. Hi, I mean, it's great. We also have to do is I think to do is they should be able to make the World Cup squad, but it hasn't been in top form. You know, like he was in, let's say about a year or two years ago, we also his performance at the Cup of Nations. I think it was just overshadowed by too many people and couldn't, couldn't hit the bullseye that much. So, so quickly, Mighty George, Mighty George, we're running out of time now, and but I'd like to share your thoughts on this one because we're inching closer to the 25th, 26th or there about, we're supposed to have the playoff with Ghana. Do you see Nigeria winning? I mean, with the formation and with the hint, we're not very sure if we're going to have Victor Moses playing and some of these persons were called back, but looking at the formation already, is there possibility that we will conquer, you know, Ghana and this one? This is probably all that we have, you know, the lineup and the invites and all that. The only person missing is Alexi Wobie. The crux of this guy's played at the Nations Cup. They'll be very, very eager to make amends, you know, for crashing out at the group stage, the second round rather. So we're looking forward to them qualifying. Ghana also have a point to prove they were accumulated at the Nations Cup. It sets up for the biggest, probably, well, all five matches are very big, all five playoffs, but Nigeria Ghana rivalry has to be one very tough one. And as a Nigerian and knowing that Nigeria posted a good first round performance at the Nations Cup, I think that Nigeria can scale through because these are the players we have. It's just about tuning them up and getting the right tactics that we talked about the other time. I'm rooting for the Super Eagles. So help us God. That's so patriotic of you.
