Fighting!

At that time, Yekini was no longer the player he was. He was getting old. We had better strikers had that point. The Prince of Monaco and the great Papilo were the deal. It's not a surprise he was no longer a starter.

enomakos:
i understands you bro real betis balompie may have fall on hard time now but they were one of the top three clubs in the la liga back then

enomakos:
you shall understands age what not on his side then
rashidi yekini remain nigeria greatest ever player and record goalscorer
kanu,okocha and mikel may be the most popular and most decorated but yekini is king

joseph1013:
When you say 'you could not', do you mean 'Nigerians could not'? I will not argue against evidence if presented. Everybody knows Finidi was good, but was he acknowledged as the best?

Manchester United and Real Madrid were interested in his signature in 1996. In fact, there was already a verbal agreement with Madrid before he eventually moved to Betis which was a big club at the time.

He was considered by many commentators as the best at the time. Ofcourse, there was no award for that.

Wicked!!!

You made me look mad among my peers

Kelechi skills after drills.

When he made the move to Real Betis in 1996, he was regarded to be one of the best wingers in world football.

This is a personal blog.
Not official.

joseph1013:
Fair enough but my point is that I've never seen any list that places Finidi above Figo, whether official or personal.

tbaba1234:


Finidi was ranked amongst the best for a relatively short time 1995-1997. He did not have the longevity of a Figo, Beckham... But for a period of time, he was amongst the best.

Did u see Babangida when he was at Ajax?

Victor Moses' best game for Nigeria ever was against Algeria in Uyo. He has largely.been disappointing in his entire career.

Go watch Nig-Gha 2000 & see Babangida in action. Even France '98.

It was Bora Milutinovic sir, not bonfrere Jo... Too much football games dey dat body of yours

Icon79:


Sometimes the kind of argument I hear on this forum makes me wanna break my ipad, for real.

Who the heck says that Moses has largely been disappointing his entire career for the Super Eagles?
Victor Moses was our best player in the 2013 AFCON tournament - the last time we won the AFCON!

joseph1013:
A list that does not have Yekini is not a credible list. Yours is a laughable list. Cele where Yekini does not feature?

1. Kanu
2. Okocha
3. Mikel

That's Eagles top 3. You obviously underestimate the impact and influence of Mikel in his generation in the Super Eagles. Mikel is the most decorated Nigerian player (behind Kanu?)

Bros u still remember the amount?

Joseph1013 abeg confirm this sign-on fee from any of ur sauces

tbaba1234:


Yea, If he moved to Madrid, He will have remained at the top for a longer period.

Betis had a lot of money, they also bought Denilson.
