Nigeria coach Shuaibu Amodu has hinted that some of his more senior players, perhaps including Finidi George, may not be included in his World Cup squad after Nigeria's semi-final exit in the African Nations' Cup.

Shuaibu Amodu, whose own position is not that comfortable, says he has learnt lessons from the Malian tournament: "This to me is an eye-opener. I will not name names at the moment but certain players I relied upon let me down. But I have learnt my lessons. I promise Nigerians a better, committed and highly disciplined side for the World Cup if I still remain in charge."
