Former Nigeria international, Patrick Pascal says too many talented players in the current Golden Eaglets can make the job of final selection of players to represent Nigeria at the FIFA U17 World Cup in Brazil to be difficult for Manu Garba.
The Super Eagles Team Coordinator has also assured that the 2013 U17 World Cup-winning manager is experienced enough to select the best.
''You can see the coordination in the team, the marking, the passes, the recovery is very good and the transition in the team too is good,'' Patrick Pascal said.
''I think we are getting what we want and you can see we have a lot of talented players here, the coach needs to be very careful and I know they have the experience to pick the good players.
''I tell you it is a difficult work, it is not easy to come out around 8am and then you close by around 3pm or 4pm which means the work is tedious.
''At the end of the day it is for you to pick the best and then they represent our country.''
The Nigeria Football Federation will submit a 50-player provisional
roster for the 2019 FIFA U17 World Cup on or before September 26.
