I think Premiership teams need to stop banning African(especially Nigerian) players from playing for their countries.The way Glenn Roeder tied Obafemi Martin's hand in the Nigeria-Ghana scenario shows that these English coaches have no respect for the passion and idolatory Africans bestow on their players.We only get to see our best players play together in a match of such high calibre only once in a while Premiership teams play against each other at least four times a year.If England were playing against Argentina,Brazil or Italy,will Ferguson tell Rooney not to play because he's down to one striker?I honestly believe that a player like Martins would have made a huge difference to the outcome of that match.I hope Roeder can sleep well at night knowing he just wrestled the pride of a 160 Million soccer-crazy Nigerians from them.

So you waited for Paj and Kolinzo to take all the heat, and when things get better you show face. Clever.
