Oga keep quiet abeg.

Trying so hard to discredit this lad. What is wrong with you sef?? This is becoming so irritating.


He has the best conversion rate in the EPL... is that hype or fact??

He is One of Europe's most clinical forwards... and one of the best young strikers around... is that hype or fact??


Is the stats even from me?? WhoScored.com posted that stats and we both know they are as true as the sun.... why can't you just deal with it??


Lad has the Best... not second best... not third best... but the best clinical ratio in a league that has Kane, Aguero and more and you are saying "not that it is bad".... can you imagine?

You will see fact and still wanna argue what?? Gibberish??

This is becoming so habitual/common place for some of you here.... shocking!

And what did we see of Kayode in the last match biko?? What exactly?? now you are the one suddenly doing what you advise against ba?? Hyping!

Kayode was superman when he came on abi?? Even Osimhen showed more class when he came on.. Kayode will always be Kayode.. full of huffing and puffing here and there and runnings... nothing new. So stop your subtle hypes of a player that Nacho is miles ahead of and just accept the truth. Haba!!!

you continue typing rubbish every single time. did I say Kayode is superhuman or that he is better than Nacho? I just said he us faster than him and even a blind man and his dog can see that, well except you it would seem.

here is the point, Kayode is faster than Nacho but obviously talent wise Nacho is ahead, how is that hyping Kayode? did I say he us the fastest player in the world?

oh and Kayode had two shots in that game after coming on, Nacho had zero

Icon4s:


Bros if you have been on this thread long enough you'll know I should be the last moniker to hype Iheanacho.

I know how I continuously poured cold water on guys here hyping Iheanacho putting him on the same level, if not above, Messi and Ronaldo.

But, I can tell you that though Iheanacho may not presently be looking like a player that would take the world by storm as earlier predicted, he is our most lethal striker. It is no hype.

Create chances for Iheanacho to score and see whether he wouldn't rattle the net severally.

Our opponents now know that Iheanacho needs the balls to score. Cut him off supply and he will be a passenger on the field.

Now what I expected of the technical crew is to device a set up that will make the midfield and AM creative enough to dis-organize our opponent's midfield and defense and Iheanacho will continuously find himself in good scoring positions.
You saw how Chile did this against Cameroon and Vargas, but for his poor finishing, would have scored at least 3 goals that night.

Sending Iheanacho to the bench and fielding another striker without our midfield and AM being creative enough is like moving from frying pan to fire.

Talking about creativity that is why I am not just of the opinion that Iwobi should be sent to the bench against Cameroon. Apart from physicality you also need creativity to beat a team like Cameroon. I have severally thought of Iwobi being played as the CM and Ndidi DM and Mikel as the AM.

Iwobi hardly makes wrong passes. His through balls are almost always perfect. He is a more creative player than Etebo. Etebo can play from the wings while Iwobi plays the CM role. Mikel and Ndidi to provide physical support to Iwobi.

this should settle this dispute...well said sir

thats my boy

Undesirable?? 3goals in 5games as a no.9/CF undesirable? Of which two games are competitive? And Nacho is credited with being one of the reasons Algeria fell in Uyo that day?? No goals against Algeria but we saw what his intelligent off the ball movements did to their defence. The coach of the Algerian team pointed it out... but you guys just refuse to see it. But you hang on to what Baxter says because Nigeria lost to SA.



And when I give you stats of what he does in the world's toughest league... isn't that supposed to tell you something?



Look.... you are looking at the wrong Angle brother.


See Sir Forgiveness... I know you are not flowing well with Chief Icon4s right now but I plead with you to go read his quote to Sir Mickael2 on this same page.

I don't wanna keep repeating myself. Our problem against South Africa was the midfield. We need our most assured finisher in that game against Cameroun home and away.




The Obafemi Martin you keep mentioning... lemme tell you something you may not know about him but which I know.

At Intermilan in 2004/2005, I think, Martins was reputed as The deadliest in Europe in terms of goals per mins ratio. In fact, his goals ratio trumped that of the legendary Super goal scorer of Ac Milan back then, Andriy Shevchenko... I was only 12 in 2004 but from my head I recall reading a magazine that broke this down about Obagoal.

Now leading up to the Nations cup, Martins was scoring in somw games but will go lost in other games. He was still out best finisher and striker. So we had to stick to him.

At Nations cup 2006, when Martins kept struggling for goals for Nigeria at The Afcon, we still stuck to him. Against Ghana and Zimbabwe he didn't deliver and it was not entirely his fault. It was even a Mikel and Obodo who came to the rescue against Zimbabwe and a Taiye Taiwo who won us the Ghana game.

Martins, One of Europe's deadliest finishers was yet to get a goal.

But against Senegal... he finally delivered two goals all Orchestrated by the magic of a young rising Midfield general called John Mikel Obi.

That game against Senegal was super tight but his finishing made Mikel's first Afcon start for Nigeria look so super glorious.

Martins struggled in games where we played the very gifted Oruma and we did create couple of chances and martins also flunked many... but when Mikel came in, martins shone.

He proved his quality.

Against Tunisia, same story of no goals again. Against CIV, even with Okocha... still no goal.

Now tell me... judging by your logic of "undesirable"... was Martins' stats undesirable for that period or not?? Fact is it was definitely not desirable for a no.9

But fact remained that He was our best Striker/point man and no.9. Our best bet of finishing. He was even rated then ahead of Aghahowa.


Now three years later in 2009, We needed Martins' super finishing in the box to help us secure World Cup qualification for SA 2010.

You just don't cast away your most assured finishers for any given period... they are your best bet of winning some really tight games

My point? As Martins was to us back then... so is Iheanacho to the team now. Our most lethal finisher and best CF option. You just cannot look past him.

And that is why an older Martins cannot even be considered over Nacho right now.... just like how It was martins over a once-undroppable Aghahowa (unless we were playing two up-top).

forgiveness:



That's in the world toughest league. I am talking about the National team. His performances in that position are undesirable.

So, how many matches did he play as a point man(CF)?

Lucque:
this should settle this dispute...well said sir

settle?
Untill something new come up this will never be settled
you don't this thread be that

OMANBALA1:
Black Africans what's up....I don dey wella na'im I say make I holla.

Man City's Iheanacho Birthday Message To Messi : You Are The King Of Football




Kelechi Iheanacho has hailed Barcelona superstar Lionel Messi on the day of his birthday, and labelled him the King of Football.

The Argentina international celebrated his 30th birthday on Saturday, June 24, and he received a lot of birthday greetings from several footballers, including from the Manchester City number 72.

Iheanacho has never played against Messi in a competitive fixture, and watched proceedings from the bench as the Barca number ten opened the scoring after 21 minutes in City's 3-1 win in the Champions League last November.

''The king of football is #30 today @leomessi,'' Iheanacho told his 329,000 followers on Instagram and 105,000 followers on Twitter .

Iheanacho is spending part of his vacation in Lagos, Nigeria before returning to England for pre-season training.

If there is ever one person I was really expecting to Speak against Nacho's quality, it is Chief Icon4s....

I mean he was one person who always poured cold water on Nacho.

Even now he says he may not be looking like a player who will take the world by storm.... for now. (showing his innately conservative stance on Nacho).

Yet he admits that without Any iota of doubt... Nacho remains our best and most lethal finisher.

What is wrong then with the rest of the people talking Afrikaans?? about how Kayode can or may do better??

Are we talking Maybe or Actual??

Kayode is a fine player and the MVP plus Top scorer of the Austrian Bundesliga. He has done well and deserve his spot in the team. He is now the team's second choice striker/forward/CF.

As things stand now, it is he the onus will fall on when Nacho is not available.

But in Nacho's presence.... plsssssssss.... Kayode benches.

That is the undisputable truth.

Nacho operates on a higher level compared to Kayode and is much more rounded than Kayode.

Nacho still has the best conversion rate and best goals per mins ratio in the EPL.

He still scores goals for the Super Eagles And with a better structured Midfield will score much more.

You cannot send your A Card to the Bench and start with a B-Card. That is making matters worse than worst.



Chief Icon4s.... Honestly... I still marvel at how you come up and say things the way they are as regards that striking position. Thank you for your unbiased submission.

Icon4s:

Listen up Mister.... as far as truth and logic go... you are the one typing utter trash and beautiful nonsense.

You see a stat of a player who is undisputably the deadliest Striker in the EPL... and you come out to say rubbish about how many off-targets he's had.

What about how many off-targets the likes of Aguero, Kane, Lukaku, Costa and Sanchez have mustered?

Every time you drop an argument it is to water down Iheanacho's quality.... isn't that the truest definition of Rubbish analysis??

You type good and slot in terms just to sound smart like you are saying something sensible when all you say is just hell bent on watering down the top quality of a player like Iheanacho.

Man... stop acting like a pseudointellectual.... and man up to the truth.


And what does Kayode's speed gotta do with anything special?? Usain Bolt is fast... does it make him a good footballler??

And noooo... Kayode cannot press like Nacho. Cannot finish like Nacho.... Cannot do consistent Off the ball movements like Nacho and is not faster than Nacho... he and Nacho are almost same level in pace... you keep typing with Blindfolds. If Nacho isn't fast how come he could keep up with City's high octane counter attacks whenever he played?? If he isn't fast how come many media houses and analysts always talk about how Pacy and quick he is??


It is almost as if when you watch Nacho, you deliberately don't see some things ... why?? because you have a very biased mind towards Nacho and it has been there from the first day you walked into this thread. Same thing about Mikel who you blatantly said was useless and not needed in the team. But I don't see you picking om Mikel anymore because it has dawned on your biased self that Mikel is the heart of our team.

Kayode came in and had two shots... bla bla bla... did he convert?? Did he score?? He came up against a defence that has been working tirelessly all 90mins and he, looking all fresh.. huffed and puffed as usual... and you wanna make a silly case with that??

Oga.... just take a hike.

Iheanacho over Kayode on all counts. Even in Jupiter. I mean what rubbish comparison. Saying Kayode can do better... chaaaiiiiii... pseudointellectual talk.
Just sit down and eat that humble pie. Just cannot fathom going for something less than the best we have..... #Shocking

Mickael2:


you continue typing rubbish every single time. did I say Kayode is superhuman or that he is better than Nacho? I just said he us faster than him and even a blind man and his dog can see that, well except you it would seem.

oh and Kayode had two shots in that game after coming on, Nacho had zero

For those who wanna know, if they have been scoring.... or have scored any goal at all... well here it is... Ideye has four... Ighalo has two.

Belgian Clubs Mulling Over Move For The Nigerian Yaya Toure





Allnigeriasoccer.com has been informed that two unnamed Belgian First Division clubs are mulling over a move for Lillestrom starlet Innocent Bonke in the summer transfer window.

Bonke has become an important member of the Lillestrom squad since his arrival in 2014, and has made over fifty appearances for The Canaries in all competitions.

Lillestrom have placed one million euros asking price on Bonke, but it is thought that interested clubs will be able to close the deal if a bid of €800,000 is lodged and a ten percent sell-on clause is inserted by the Norwegian team.

Dubbed the New Yaya Toure in his homeland, the midfielder represented Moderate Stars, Ruqayyah Football Academy and Bujoc FC, Lagos before he transferred to Lillestrom.
The 21-year-old was discovered by top Nigerian Football scout, Udia Attai.

but on nacho...playing the CF role....I still have my reservations though
I watched him and oshimen under 17 highlights yesterday.... I was thrilled
I just pray oshimen grows to be that lethal finisher... both of them playing that attacking role wit nacho behind the lad.....will be something Nigerians will never love to forget

don't worry 'nigerian neymar' will leave up to the expectation

I just finished watching Nacho's goals for man city and they are all basically one touch goals that is tappings. Now get me right am not saying they are not goals but they are simpler to score because they only require positioning which has a lot to do with luck ( because to anticipate you guess and that could be wrong or right)
Nacho has the Ronaldo kind of hype - all about goals but he can do better as evidenced in the goal he scored against Southampton from outside the box but playing him as a striker makes him almost static. when I say static in this sense I mean a striker sometimes goes to midfield to make space for runners from deep and that can give him the space to do what I think he can do best well, that is taking curling shots from around the eighteen yard box
In summary I think Nacho's best position is the AMF/SS where he can show his total talent and also make those runs for the tappings as well

Me sef no know the Innocent oooo..... Loooollll

And even Ejaria is called Nigerian Yaya Toure too. Me sef tire for these tags.

It just makes me shake my head at the nonsense logical shape-shifts some people come up with here just to put down Nacho. Mikel was also put down in the same manner and now their eyes don clear.

You give them facts and stats that are impossible to debate against and you will still see them debate just for debate's sake. Not that they have a strong case sef.


Can't we analyse Nigerian football with keen objectivity and Truthful knowledge of the team's strengths and weaknesses?

And about pairing Nacho and Kayode... well... that is a possibility for maybe later. But truth is, in the long run, like Sir TheGoodJoe, I see an Osimhen rising strong and may pair Nacho for the future of the Nigerian attack or even displace him depending on the formation going into that future period.




But until then, the attack is what it is and the best we have for now is Iheanacho.

It depends on the midfield and who he has to play with in the front 3. He does well with a fluid front 3 where he can interchange with the other wide players. If he has a good midfield and is playing in a front 3 with say Onyekuru/Iwobi/Musa and Moses, I think he'd do well.

Now get me right am not saying they are not goals but they are simpler to score because they only require positioning which has a lot to do with luck ( because to anticipate you guess and that could be wrong or right)
Nacho has the Ronaldo kind of hype - all about goals but he can do better as evidenced in the goal he scored against Southampton from outside the box but playing him as a striker makes him almost static. when I say static in this sense I mean a striker sometimes goes to midfield to make space for runners from deep and that can give him the space to do what I think he can do best well, that is taking curling shots from around the eighteen yard box
In summary I think Nacho's best position is the AMF/SS where he can show his total talent and also make those runs for the tappings as well

Did you just type that positioning has to do with luck? I don die
