I rather play ideye as a striker than iheanacho against cameroun

You said nobody can bench him as a striker in our team

Tell me what he played against Algeria and SA as a striker

And when Kayode was brought in against SA were there any highlights about his game?
Dude just became a passenger, nothing worthy of note.

This Iheanacho Vs Kayode debate has been exhaustive. Me no get the zeal for it again for now.

He did not score but his build up play was
awesome...you saw how emenike flopped @ the world cup because there was no ideye with him grin

And don't forget the wonderful assist he gave emenike in the first game against Burkina faso

Emm how many goals did Ideye score at that 2013 AFCON?

And did you say the Greek league? You've probably swept away the fact that he flopped big time at Westbrom before he was shipped to Greece.

Did musa shine for Leicester? grin

should I start mentioning players that flopped @ EPL?. shey that one mean say the player no good?

Yes Greek league... @least they won euro 2004

However I watched the senegal game few hours ago and I think rohr needs to trust success on the right wing for the cameroon game.Boys direct running and power is already enough for their left back to get occupied and busy during the game.But what caught my attention most about success in the game is the way he was "skinning" Kalidou Koulibay(a chelsea target valued more than 50m pounds)lol

Let everyone watch his clip and be sincere. Does Ajagun make a strong case?

hmmmmmmmmmmmmmm


*clearing throat* grin

Out of his 16 shots at goal (I no count the two goals he scored with his head oooo) grin

Only 4 were off target, 2 were blocked by the Defenders though goal bound, 2 were saved by the keeper, one hit the post and 7 were buried into the net.

Out of 7 long range shoots from outside the box 18, 3 were off target, 1 was brilliantly saved by the keeper and 3 were buried into the net.


How come some said his shooting, strikes and scoring ability are poor? shocked grin

Una sure dem watch the match? grin

Besides, his ball control, stamina, dribbling skills, pace, ability to defend, long range pass, through pass, ability to transform defense to attack etc connotes the modern day attacking midfielder. Three gbosa for Ajagun! grin

I didn't need to watch to the end to know that Ajagun is a damn good AMF. He is that connector btw MF and Attack. He passes very well, he's always on time to pop up and shoot. I watched a couple of his games last season he was good but his team was just too leaky in the back. Well he's on loan from Panathanaikos. I hope they sell him. But as for SE, lets forget it, he won't be invited as long as Mikel still states that he's playing for SE. Rohr may never put a newbie in that AM position after what SA did to us. If na you, you go put new person there? But Ajagun can make a good case by going to a top team in either France or Belgium, he has the talent to succeed there. E.g. could be Marseille, Nice, Genk, or Liege. I'd be glad to see him in SE but I know Rohr won't invite him





Someone here said he is going to Belgium but I don't know how true it's.

Besides, is the position of all the players in the National team guaranteed peradventure they have no game time next season?

Yes, I knew you'll make reference to that Burkina Faso game because that was the only highlight of Ideye's game that is worthy of note through out his entire career with the Super Eagles. You forgot to mention his big flop at the 2013 Confederations cup.

Now comparing him with Musa: Musa did far better than Ideye did in the EPL plus Musa had more quality players to contend with in the starting lineup. And also Ideye is long past his peak and already midway through his declining curve while Musa can still get his spark back. You saw how he scored a brace against Togo even as a winger.

Ideye in China: Nothing worthy of note thus far. Is there any news about him scoring any goal? unlike what we have heard about Martins and Ighalo.

Abeg, no space for Ideye in this SE starting line-up.

The build up play you guys are always making reference to was it not bc of the Zambia game? Apart from that Zambia game please make reference to any other games Ideye was involved in any build up play worthy of note.
When Mikel is in that AM position which forward player will not have a good build up play? If you recall in that Zambia game both Iheanacho and Iwobi were also involved in build up plays orchestrated by Mikel.


That's why I say put a very Lethal Iheanacho in front of Mikel the orchestrator.

Also.. who plays no.9 if Nacho, according to your deductions, is to play 10 behind the striker?


There are many players able to play no 9.

Ideye dey dere, Martins dey dere, Kayode dey dere, Adi dey dere, Ighalo dey dere, plenty.

Nigeria can do without Iheanacho in that. Facts grin

Iheanacho shouldn't be forced down the throats of Nigerians despite his obvious inability to play as the CF.?

Iheanacho is not good enough for the CF position. Many countless articles by reputable football analysts, successful professional footballers, licensed coaches both locally and internationally etc have empirically emphasised and hold up to the opinion that Iheanacho is not good enough for the CF position.

So, where did you get your aproka knowledge of Football from? shocked grin

Sorry, no thanks. Iheanacho can't play that CF. He should fight for the ss role. EOD.
