Enyeama Listed In World Cup Group-stage Best XI by naijanoni(m): 3:04pm On Jun 27, 2014
Enyeama and Ivory coast's serge aurier are the only africans in whoscored's best XI of the world cup group-stages.Which means enyeama is the best goal-keeper so far and Serge Aurier the best right-back,tho ivory coast are going home.

Fake ?.
Okay.The list was compiled using the average statistical ratings of players in all 3 group-stage matches by Whoscored.Click on d link i posted.
Note:-
This is not a List of the eleven TOP players.
But a TEAM of XI that consists of ALL POSITIONS.
These are the players with d highest ratings in their various positions.
The players that are similar to Neymar on that list are Robben and Messi.
Neymar performed well but not better than Robben or Messi.
Arguable though.
But i think neymar isnt on d list becos of d mexico game.
He didnt have a high rating in dat match.
Messi and Robben got high ratings in all 3 matches.
Remember,they used d average ratings 4rm all 3 matches.

Has to be Ochoa on the goalkeeping spot. Enyeama had an average game against Argentina conceding three soft goals. Messi's second goal caught him napping. Too elementary a mistake.

Boy what d hell did u just say ?.At least be reasonable.
How d fvck are those 3 goals soft ?.You call d 1st goal soft ?.
A rebound 4rm messi after diving 2 save d 1st shot 4rm rojo.He hadnt even recovered,before messi placed the ball into d top corner.
No goal-keeper would save that.
Yeah you heard that right.
3rd goal isnt a soft goal.It was d fault of d defence NOT d GOALIE.
Its only d 2nd u can blame him partially for.
Fact is with our defenders,Casilas,Hart,Buffon even ur ochoa would have conceeded far more in dat match.
Best goalie isnt judged by how many goals u conceed alone.
How many saves u make plays d biggest part.
The amount of saves would determine wether ur clean-sheet or less goals conceeded is actually a fluke or not or if its becos of a strong defence shielding you.
Ochoa with only one goal conceeded,made few saves compared to enyeama,which means he wasnt really tested.
Enyeama made d most
Saves which proves his 2 clean sheets/3 goals conceeded wasnt a fluke.
Thats why it would be hard 4 u 2 see a recognized statistical site with Ochoa as d best goalie in d group-stage.
The two best and most recognized statistical sites in d world Squawka.com and Whoscored.com has enyeama rated as d best goalie.
And the fact that FIFA also has him rated as the best goalie
http://m.fifa.com/worldcup/statistics/castrol-index/ranking-goalkeeper.html
makes it OFFICIAL that enyeama has been d best goalie in d tournament so far HANDS DOWN !.

First of all, you must moderate your language as I don't do vulgar. Now why were the goals soft? GOAL NO1: First goal was conceded as early as the 3rd minute from a rebound off the goalpost. How do you explain the loss of reflex action in a keeper presenting the opposition with an unhindered shot on goal with the rebound shot coming off the keeper's back! You don't make such basic mistake with a Messi-team. Seemed like stage fright. That the team got him out of jail by hitting back at Argentina is highly instructive or else it would have been a total whitewash. Verdict: saveable shot. GOAL NO. 2: Do I need to analyse this goal?
Re: Enyeama Listed In World Cup Group-stage Best XI by maestroferddi: 9:47pm On Jun 27, 2014
GOAL NO.2: Credit goes to Enyeama for saving Messi's first free-kick. Then the second happens. Enyeama got jittery and lost his bearings completely. Communication to the wall got muddled up. We all thought he was leading Messi on by asking the wall to move to the left. The wall got static because I am sure they thought he had the right corner of his goal covered. Moreso when Messi had picked that spot in the first kick. In what was among Messi's easiest free-kicks, the outfielders were left with nothing short of bemusement with that cakewalk of a goal Enyeama allowed past him. Verdict: Messi is a genius but Enyeama obviously flattered him.

1st of all i cant find where i used vulgar language in my comment.
Secondly
You talk of reflexes,.A goal-keeper made a LOW DIVE 2 d left trying to save d 1st shot which deflected of d cross-bar.Rebound which was quick was a fierce shot into the top corner.You call that a soft goal ??.
I dont know of any keeper that would save that.
Also d rebound didnt come off enyeama's back.I dont know where u watched ur match.
You are d only person i've seen say that the 1st goal was "soft".

Why is it that with 3 goals conceeded and a loss,enyeama still got a higher rating in d argentina match,than in d game against bosnia and iran where he kept clean sheets and nigeria won and drew ?.

Well wether d goals were soft in ur eyes.
The fact remains that the organizers of d world cup FIFA rates enyeama as d best goalie so far ahead of your ochoa.
Also the most recognized statistical sites say d same.
Which makes their judgement/opinion more relevant than yours or mine or any other.
SO
ENYEAMA IS OFFICIALLY THE BEST GOALIE OF THE WORLD CUP SO FAR
(wether we like it or not).
Re: Enyeama Listed In World Cup Group-stage Best XI by maestroferddi: 10:30pm On Jun 27, 2014
GOAL NO.3: Well, the jury is out on this one. Enyeama was not completely culpable because his defenders went flat-footed for this goal. But I think he had a lapse of concentration. Or how do you explain another dead ball confusion and concession? The ball was lofted via a corner from the left-hand side of the pitch, Enyeama obviously was not following the flight of the ball either to make a mid-air interception/save or position himself to make a save from the resultant attack. As he and his defense were enjoying their Brazilian siesta, up popped Marcus Rojo (defender) to knee the ball into the goal. For the second time in 45 minutes, Enyeama was rooted to the spot on a deadball strike. Not even an attempted save; not positioning one of his defenders to cover the right corner of his goal. Note that that was the same spot Messi had picked for the second goal. What did it tell you when Argentina was always getting a one up on Nigeria almost immediately? It goes without saying that Enyeama is up there among the top keepers in the game. But just like I have shown, that Argentina match is one he would watch the clip again and realise that he allowed the occasion get the better part of him.

To me there's a diff btw avin a gud game and nt conceeding(mex bra match) and avin a gud game yet conceedin 2 soft goals(ng arg match). Against bosnia, enyeama only made 2big saves(if i rememba correctly) and against iran 1save(big save). Ochoa impressed alot against brazil and croatia

Enyeama made more saves than Ochoa,thats a fact.
Whoscored.com Squawka.com and most importantly the organizers of d world cup FIFA all rated enyeama ahead of ochoa.
And dis judgement was made through their stats.
And YES i watched all mexico's games.
In your personal opinion ochoa has been the best.
But OFFICIALLY enyeama is rated the best goal-keeper so far.
End of story !.

D compilation is still fake, Daley Blind is a left back and not a central back. He's an Ajax player and he was the one that gave RVP the fantastic cross that led to his 17 yards stunning header against Spain that got Casillas staring at the sky.

And Karem Benzema plays top 9 for France and not 11 as shown by ur listing.

Enyeama has made the most saves in tournie,far more than ochoa.
I watched cameroon-mexico match,i cant remember ochoa making any notable save.He was barely tested.
Against croatia too he made very few saves cos he was barely tested.
Its only d game against brazil dat he put up a MOTM performance.
But unfortunately FIFA's judgement isnt based on one or two matches alone,but all matches.

But d fact remains dat nigeria is officially ranked 44th in d world wether we agree or not.
Same thing with Man-of-the-match awards in dis world cup.
Different football sites(ESPNFC,skysports,whoscored,Goal.com e.t.c) all have their different man-of-the-match for every match.Everybody has his personal man-of-the-match.
But the one dat is recognized is d one from FIFA.
