Kog45:) permit to make reference to when i was playing school football. Each one of us had a prefered CB pair, when it comes to some matches the tutor(not necessarily a coach)will tell the young ones to sitdown and watch their seniors, mind you they were just two classes above us and they weren't really better. You sit down and you watch them, how they shout at their teammates and stuffs like that, that is the meaning of gaining experience from an experienced player. Obagoal is just 31 or 32, Mikel isn't far behind. Obagoal is currently better than Ideye and Ighalo and on current form, he is better than Iheanacho, fact. Ideye is what? 27 Ighalo is also 27 i think and they are already gone, our plan now has to be how to groom Oshimen(who I don't really fancy as a member of our future team), Nacho and the really young lads. Who will they learn from? They might learn leadership from Mikel but they still need to learn the instincts of an experienced striker from Obagoal. This form of experience is different from club football experience, besides African football is another thing entirely. Now Ideye and Ighalo are not recognised strikers on the African continent, Martins is, so why can't they learn from him? 2018 is next year and Martins would be at most 33, Trezeguet went to the 2006 world cup almost at 35 etc etc. We need experienced strikers who are good enough, Iheanacho played a good game against Algeria if it was an Epl match, but in Africa something that is perceived as a good game in the Uk isn't really a good game in Africa, we want to see the beauty of the game not really the tactical side most times. We want to see swift strikers and smart runs into the box not a striker who can press or even fall deep, if we can teach the younger generations this aspect of football, trust me Iheanacho can learn from him and it will improve his game generally. Drogba and Eto for example understood the difference between the African game and the European game and they will able to combine it to devastating effect, sometimes you see Drogba pressing tirelessly like an European player and sometimes he would just use brute strenght to win games like an African 3 Likes 1 Share |

Are we talking of the same match in the Audi cup that confirmed that Taiwo was going to be a flop in Milan? Ta!!! No repeat this thing make Milan fans no descend on you. This is why I always skip youtube highlights, very misleading. Robben ended Taiwo that day. Infact I'm sure they must have specially sent Taiwo for happy ending massage after the game.

Napoleon55: Another way to put it, is who do we have that is better Consider that this boy is documented and recorded born in France and undeniably 18 years old, is also amazing. I Compared to our most promising striker Kelechi who is 20 years old and has played 40 games for Manchester city and scored 12. Mbappe has played 29 games and scored 9. Who is faster I would say Mbappe who is more clinical and technically gifted you can debate until tomorrow. Who would cost more in the transfer market then I think there is no debate, Mbappe. The Good news he will probably never play for Cameroon, if not we would be in hot pepper soup. |

komekn: If a player like Kelechi Iheanacho had found himself in such a club at an early stage with less competition. He would have shone better than Mbappe of a guy. I repeat if Nacho was fortunate to go to a Club where the Coaches believed in him and allowed him enjoy some good playing minutes ehn....... guy forget all this talk. Man city has slowed his progress and the earlier his handlers understand this, the better for his carrier. So Mbappe has become another Semi-god in football to singlehandedly guarantee victory if he were to play for Cameroon against Nigeria, "hian" is the guy another version of Messi? hmmmmmmm na waooooooo Is Mbappe better than Victor Moses too 9 Likes |

komekn: I totally agree with you on this one. The mistake we are making is discarding players on age grounds and not necessarily on current form. Who cares if they are currently in form in Nigeria? All they seek for is untested and inconsistent 'potential' talent. These is why we and most African countries never made headway in all the World Cups we had participated. The one who made headway, check their teams and you will assuredly see old cargoes e.g Cameroon had Roger Miller while Ghana had Gyan. Even france had Zidane who came out of retirement to singlehandedly helped France to the finals. I am not saying we Park all the old cargoes to our tournament ooo. But I am saying, let us give the players that are currently inform the chance to prove themselves. Afterall, the so called potentials ain't doing anything special. Next year is world cup and yet we put much expectations and emphasis on so called potentials still warming the bench. Iheanacho dey relax for bench but some will still put him ahead of those inform in their starting 11. See Ibrahimovic, if na Nigerian player, em go near national team. I totally agree with you on this one. 1 Like |

BascoVanVeli: We have to keep future tourneys in mind when we are selecting players. This is not about giving players a chance who can help build a Solid Super Eagles that will stand the test of time. This is about a player who can offer for a short period of time. When I talk of giving players chances, it is about promoting young players to prove that they are as good or better than the experienced players. 1 Like |

komekn: Na wa, you are counting the few minutes Iheanacho comes in as games played. Bias. Mbappe is good but I will prefer to watch both make steady run of games before judging him better than Iheanacho. If Mbappe was at City, he would sit on the bench. Fact. 2 Likes |

Orkpekyandega: I think the right term is that Manchester City slowed Iheanacho's hype. Judge Iheanacho after he plays regular games. That is the best way to judge his development at City. |
Re: "The Super Eagles Thread: The Road To AFCON 2025 And 2026 World Cup by TheGoodJoe(m): 11:55pm On Feb 24, 2017 |
forgiveness: Iheanacho is on the bench because of the high competition in City. Martins will not see Bench at City. Yet You want to make regular time at MLS and China as the bomb. |

TheGoodJoe: Where was Man City when Martins was a shining star at Inter Millan? Where was Man City when Martins was a star in the days of the Newcastle of Alan Sherea? Where was Man City when Martins was a star with the Champions of Bundusliga? When it comes to talent, we know Martins is more talented than Iheanacho. Make Iheanacho achieve wetin Martins achieved first before you compare him with Martins. |
