lol.. oya who belong to that team, show yourselves

forgiveness:



Morata could have more goals than Hazard but we know the best.

Moreover, Simon Moses has played in more than matches in different games.

Dem sabi themselves naa.

The other day we played Algeria in Uyo, when you see our Oyinbo wall some times you go think say dem be Algerian players sef.

At a point my wifey asked me who be Nigeria? People in Green or in White?

The two countries dey kukuma wear Green and white jerseys.

In the last three years!?

Onyekuru was in Belgium pro league 2nd tier three seasons ago when Simon Moses fought for the league titles (came second) and played in Belgium FA cup finals just two seasons before this.

Please, take note that Simon Moses helped them to win that FA cup with an assist for the only goal of that match.

It was only last season we started hearing about Onyekuru. This season has not finished yet.

Joebie:
lol the world is now a global village.. it will be interesting when we all become color blind.

If the Brazilian - Nigerian Descent player is not good why some club wan buy am?

When I heard Nigerian Brazilian Football player, my appetite for him was instance because he has played in the Brazilian league and must have learned the swagger.

If he gets a buyer in the EPL and scores in January then I will give him my pass mark to the world Cup.

PROVERBZ:
no no u dont get it I am asking if Anderlecht have played any league game since playing PSG ??

Icon4s:


Reminds me of all those talks about a Bulish striker before that Cameroon game.

"Jam body football". Hahahaha.

Joebie:
The fact is that Onyekuru's market value has been on the rise and has eclipsed Simon in a very short time (since he started playing in the Jupiler league). Simon's MV has been rather stagnant for the MOST PART since he's been playing in the Jupiler league. I will have to question your ability to read a graph if you disagree with me.

Kog45:
Oh those talks even forced Rohr to invite Nwakaeme, Aaron Samuel,if this guy was discovered before Cameroon,I know some w call for his invitation.

Icon4s:


Ah tell you my brother

tbaba1234:


See false equivalency..

Simon and Onyekuru play the same position in the same league.

Onyekuru has play half the games of Simon and has more goals already.

chrisooblog:
personally i think it's a mistake compering S. moses to onyekuru. even though they play in similar positions their styles differ. onyekuru is more of a striker cum winger in the mould of CR7, thierry henry, osaze etc guys who can play on the flanks but always have a goal threat in them. such players will end up in the number 9 position. it will be more logical to compare onyekuru to kayode olanrewaju both play on the wings and have an eye for goal

simon on the other hand is a pure winger who just loves to take on and beat his man. the main stat that would be used to judge him is his number of assists but he will be also expected to contribute his fair share of goals. simon's game is most similar to people like hazard, robben, di maria and the likes. it would be more logical to compare simon to vicmo, peter olayinka, samuel kalu or even ahmed musa.

that said based on team honours obviously simon moses is ahead but on individual achievements henry is definitely ahead. more goals, good number of assists, signed by a club in a higher ranked league, better career trajectory etc but like i said before i think they have different roles for us to be putting them side by side. it's like comparing hazard to morata

joseph1013:

You forget he led them to promotion that year. You think it's easy?

Kog45:
Honestly before Cameroon i was wondering what was going on,seeing respected guys here preferred Nwakaeme over Iheanacho and d called for Aaron Samuel over Kayode and Oyekwuru.

Reason why Simon is still in the Super Eagles starting 11 is because we don't have so many wingers better than he is at the moment.

If he Doesn't change his style of play he'll end up like the likes of Pius Ikedia and Ahmed Musa.

Simon has a lot to learn in terms of his final passes.
He works so very hard but the product of all those hardwork is just average or less.

You saw how Iwobi changed things upon his introduction against Zambia? That is how a modern winger plays.

You notice Iwobi didn't run much on the wings which gave Shehu acres to make his runs. Iwobi went deep close to the AM position which was where Shehu's cross came to meet him and the rest is history. Ahmed Musa does that too once in a while but Simon is always on the flanks and doesn't really combine well with the number 10 player. His own is to take on defenders one-on and finally play one way-ward cross. You saw how Iwobi combined well with Mikel and even Ighalo. Same thing in the game in Ndola.

Yes Onyekuru is up and coming but as you rightly said I would like to see him develop as a striker.

We are blessed with wingers in this team but we don't have depth in the striking department.

Rohr should draft in Onyekuru among the CF jare.

forgiveness:


Wrong! They din't play in the same position throughout last season.

Simon Moses played mostly as a second striker last season and only played 6 matches on the left wing. He scored 3 goals and assisted 4 when he played on the LW last season.

While, Henry Onyekuru played mostly as a LW last season. He played 34 matches, scored 18 goals and gave 8 assists.

Get your facts right before you start posting falsely.

tbaba1234:


Yes, the style of play is different. Moses is your traditional winger, Henry prefers to come inside. As such, Simon should get more assists and Henry more chances to score.

Simon is not even giving assists. He has one for the season from an indirect freekick but none from open play.


Henry and Simon play exactly the same role in the team. LWF. Henry's goal return gave him more freedom. Not even they coaches thought he will explode, the way he did last year.

Kayode is an out and out striker, henry isn't. He plays primarily from the wings. Simon had a great goals return in his first year from the wings.

Henry is not a number 9 and i do not think he will thrive there. Kayode is a number 9. Totally different.

forgiveness:


TThis was where Simon Moses played last season.

Does this look like a LW position?

tbaba1234:


You know, i watch many of these games first hand when i have a free weekend. I am not talking from second hand account.

So Simon played as a second striker and still had less goals and assists than a LWF. Just making your case worse.

forgiveness:



I even saw in played on the LM on few occasions.

Now, do you agree they don't play in the same position before I answer your second paragraph?

tbaba1234:
For the Super Eagles, Simon has paid his dues and deserves his position.

At club level, Onyekuru is currently better.

tbaba1234:


I watched his games last season and he was mostly on the wings. I am not talking about second hand info.

Even if i entertain such.. As a support striker, he was outscored by a left winger
