There you go so. 

The rest is speculation.



That's it. Keep moving the goalposts. 


Says you, heres the full quotes from his agent

It’s just a case of timing and Mipo getting his feet under the table at West Ham,” Adarabioyo told The Sunday Times on Friday. “That was a very big ask while the season was going on and it was a very high pressure situation for him. He’s young and he is starting his career and that’s the main focus. He is coming into the last year of his contract at West Ham.
“That message was relayed to the [Ireland] coaches and it was like ‘OK, we will speak about it more at a later date’. That conversation hasn’t happened. The reason why he is not playing any international football is because of a lack of communication. Other than that, he has played for Ireland before and he will play for Ireland again.”

A mix of established facts and a mix of speculation on his agents behalf.

Yet you opted for the speculation.

Neither England or Nigeria are interested right now, understandably, but the quotes you chose to omit would suggest that Odubeko would be amenable to a call-up in the future (if he can get off the bench at Doncaster).

He's hardly going to rule himself out of playing international football altogether, is he?

Cogitation if he would be amenable to declaring is unconstructive to the lads animus.

Just think its mildly entertaining how you have gone from rusty sheriff badges and the likes to reciting the thesaurus in every post. No harm meant.

There's no ambiguity NOW. Could he not have said this when he was making the bench at West Ham?

He says he's committed and always has been. Find it a little hard to believe but let's give the guy a chance and see where he gets to. He isnt doing much yet to warrant being in conversations for the national team, he'd have to start producing the goods on some of his loan moves

Can't disagree with this.

As for callups, he's too old for the 19's so it's the 21's only.
JJ and Ferguson the main men there so whether JC will call Odubeko up ahead of say, Colm Whelan or Oko-Flex (who couldn't even make the matchday squads last time out), is the question.

He's having a tough time at Doncaster, getting intermittent starts and zero goals, but maybe that's what he needed.

Good interview and hopefully that will shut up the doubters.

Yes. His change of heart couldn't possibly have anything to do with a failed loan spell at Huddersfield and an underwhelming (so far) loan spell with Doncaster.

His own agent said his international future wasn't tied to one team. Jim Crawford said he wasn't responding to multiple lines of communication. He refused multiple call-ups.

But let's just take his nonsense at face value rather than apply some critical thinking.

It's funny how whenever someone refuses call-ups to focus on breaking through for their club, it's always someone who's eligible for other countries.

Lads who can only play for us seem to be able to balance the two commitments with no bother.

Crawford said Odubeko wasn't responding to attempts to contact him to ascertain his intentions. Odubeko is now suggesting he's always been in regular contact with Crawford.

One of them is being dishonest.

Hence "ambiguity".

"that he’s in regular contact with U-21 boss Crawford."

I think you misread the article. The above isn't a past tense, its a present continuous. So I don't see the dishonesty in what he said but rather the way you are incorrectly interpreting it I think?
