Mamadou Niang will refuse next call-up…

April 15th, 2008 | By: Magnusson | 4 Comments »

fas-13042008.jpgIn an interview with Algerian newspaper “Le Buteur” about the upcoming Seneagl confrontation against Algeria, mamadou Naing, Marseille’s number 1 threat has revealed that he would not be reporting for duty. The 28 year-old who may be living his best season so far declared;

“After the African Cup of Nations in Ghana, I decided to take some time to think and fall back from the National Team in order to see morer clearly. I have seen things in Ghana that I did not care for and that I can’t condone. So I decided I would not be responding positively to the Senegal call-ups until I haven’t spolen with the new People at the Federation and with my Coach”

See this should have me shook. mamadou Niang is the best senegalese player playing today but he ahs so many things against him on this one that I don’t see this having any effectr on whoever is concerned. First of all, no matter what he says, Mamad’ as he likes to be called, has never showed anything stellar with the Lions and I am still wating for him to prove all those who believe he doesn’t play 100% wrong. For the record, I think he plays because he kinda HAS to but he never was as patriotic as a Henri Camara for example.
Anyway, The other reason is that most non-european players will be on vacation between the four games in Jube and this seems all too convenient for him to be suddenly concerned with the winner workings of the tem while he was faking an inkury last year to go on vcation with his family in Washington D.C (Of all places?).
Anyway, this is another one of those convenience retirement and I’m looking forward to seeing him back in the Selection next season.

Why you hating on DC son! Come on now. I showed you a better time than that. Now I know what you think of me. Typical Parisian arrogance :)

Mamad’s got the right idea. You federation is worse than ours, and thats saying something.

Son, DC’s the shit! I had an awesome time. But I just thought ballers were going to place with more beaches and stuff on vacation.
I’m not hating on your town, I’m still hoping to crash on your couch again!

haha, i feel you. im just giving you a hard time. you’d definitely expect him to go to some island or smthn. if i had run into him in dc i would have gotten pictures to prove it.

the couch is yours whenever you need it. good luck with the exams homie.

btw, hows jerome coping with psg’s troubles? that coupe won’t be much of a consolation if they get relegated. that would make them the only major european city without a team from the capital in the top flight. not exactly a good distinction.
