However, the technical crew was happy with the entire squad response to arrival in camp and the comradierie that existed among all the players.
“It’s one big family here and this is the spirit we should carry to the World Cup,” declared Lille of France goalie Vincent Enyeama. There are also no injury worries with the team as all the players have been visiting the gym to maintain fitness before training starts on Monday evening.
The players were also very happy with the recall of team captain Joseph Tambarin Yobo and Osaze Odemwengie. Yobo, himself declared during breakfast on Monday that he was overwhelmed by the shower of love by his team mates.
“I am humbled and I pray that I will justify the confidence reposed in me”,
he said.
Osaze spoke in a similar vein, adding that it was a family reunion that is
bound to affect the fortunes of the team at the World Cup. “We will do our
best in Brazil to justify this unity that we have in camp”.
