With proof?

tbaba1234:


I understand.

That is where good agents come in. Good agents can get you good clubs for your development. Awaziem's loan move to Nantes has raised his profile in Porto. He is likely to play an important role for Porto next year.

That is the kind of move Nwakali needs. A move that raises his profile whether he makes a career at Arsenal or elsewhere

tbaba1234:


you mean his birth certificate because i don't know what proof you want. You already assumed that the man's profile written by the man himself is untrue.

I saw a couple of minutes of the Mamelodi Sundowns game against a club side in Lome, I wept for Nigeria. The quality of the playing turf was about the same standard I saw at the world cup. I can't understand how a municipal stadium in Lome can boast of a better playing surface than the Nigerian national stadium.

The playing surface I saw actually gave credence to what someone who took a team to Togo narrated. The guy said at half time, when his boys were about going to the changing room, sprinklers emerged from the middle of the pitch watering the grass. His boys were so amazed that they couldn't concentrate on his team talk, because they have never seen such a thing in their lifes.
I find it amazing up till now, we still cannot figure out how to grow ordinary grass. Smh

forgiveness:


Orji was with the first team throughout last season. If he doesn't play, he is on the bench.

BascoVanVeli:


You have been sounding like you have his birth certificate tbh. I am just giving you logical explanations to wat u are bringing up. Fact! Some people lie in their profiles. Especially younger people.

AIG07:
I was opportuned to watch the HL of Enyimba's match against WAC at Aba and another CCC match involving a Kenya side Gor Mahia and Young African Stars in Nairobi. If I must confess Enyimba(Nigeria's only rep still in the continental cup) is no where close to the kind of class shown by the three other teams. The pitch in Kenya is far better than the bumpy lawn we call football pitch that Enyimba played on. I was forced to change channel when I could no longer take it in.


I shake my head for my country. Our Management is Zero.

tbaba1234:


I know people who know Wasiu Alalade. Alalade was in Kwara poly at the same time as Gata. They are friends.

There is no lie on his profile.

goldfish80:

No two situations are the same. Fortune may have smiled on Awaziem after Nantes missed out on signing their 1st defensive priority. Things like that happen all the time in football.
I said it on thread some weeks back that Nwakali was signed by Porto B, he will have to work his way up.
Best of luck to him.

ChrisKels:


Just wait till preseason is over and registrations for the new season are made.

Like I said, no fear. I have my reasons

tbaba1234:


I do not expect Nwakali to move to a big club but he has a good enough profile to get him a good deal in the top flight of Belgium. portugal or even Holland again. Going to play Portuguese 2nd division does not really help him. He needs to be raising the level he is playing at to improve.

BascoVanVeli:


Who are these people? How do I know what their character is like? Hearsay

gamaliel9:


I do not like this at all at all. Why that B team...OMG...THIS GUY THAT PLAYED NATIONAL TEAM...Personally this is not looking good...he should be exposed to top level football...he is our hope in creative midfield after Mikel Obi....He should start getting used to quality match atmosphere..gini bukwa nke a bikonu?

isan:
Is galatasary not a bigger club than Everton?

charlesemeka85:
bros nwakali jnr cant give more than he can offer. for now where he is now is his level. teams from the leagues you mentioned would have swooped for his signature if he is what they need. all he has to do is work hard and climb the ladder to porto's first team. enough hype abeg

tbaba1234:


I am not one to hype Nwakali. Never have.

However, a loan deal to a tougher league might have served him better. Porto B might not be the best place of development. A tougher league does not mean a big club.

tbaba1234:


Ideye was shut out because he was inactive. We should move on from the likes of Ideye and Ighalo now. Give opportunities to the upcoming talents.

Icon4s:


Siasia was such a versatile player that played as CF, SS, and number 10. If we had someone like Siasia in this current team, we would have been saying a different story about Russia 2018 today.

Mentioning Ideye and Siasia in the same sentence is an insult to football.

TheGoodJoe:


Nice one. As I pointed out earlier, the playing turf is a big part of football development. You can not train a team to play good football on bad playing pitches. That is why we resort to overage players in our local league with atrocious long balls.

With better pitches, coaches can take risks with playing good balls and selecting young players who can fit the system and running good play requires. It will also aid in appeal and people turning out to watch the game.

isan:
All these guys playing npfl are over age some of them are to 30 or 35

tbaba1234:


Example Wasiu Alalade that claims to be 18 is closer to 30, if not already in his 30s. Same with Adeshina Gata.

Kog45:
Ighalo just an average striker not debatable and really pointed out the weakness of our entire team.

Thank God Musa raised his game,not happy with Iheanacho overall performance too.

Rohr need to put more searchlight on Nigeria players especially strikers.

Hope to see improved Iheanacho this season cos am seeing Awoniyi, Sadiq,and Osimhen coming for the role though depends on their performance this season..

ChrisKels:
KC Nwakali joins Porto officially on a season long loan.


biggest Nigerian transfer so far this window.



Next in line are ; SiMoses, Awoniyi and Kalu
