aina issue be like Naija popular saying "there is nothing God cannot do" lolzzz
though I understand the technical crews are still in touch with him but the chances are very slim.

TheGoodJoe:


Mbappe made his debut for Monaco in 2015.

Karlovich:
I'm not denying the fact that his stat at Man City was good, but based on the comparison at the time which was in 2016/2017 season Mbappe was better than him. Iheanacho scored 21 goals in his first 2 seasons at Man city while Mbappe had 27 goals in his first 2 seasons at Monaco. Having best goal per minute ratio was just a plus for Kelechi.

andrewbaba44:


I have no problem and I know he is already captied

Some people said he will be used and dumped but we are already seeing something different

As far as dude continues he won’t be dropped anytime soon

TheGoodJoe:

Mbappe was playing regularly, Iheanacho was not. Yet Iheanacho had a very good conversion rate. That was why the debate was about the finishing.

smartsmith0907:


personally I dont think this three man tactics will work for them imagine playing debruyne and Bernardo as a CMF role it gonna limit this players attacking feat the 4-3-3 is still the best but rodri should understudy fernandiho or by January pep should go to transfer and get a DMF to cover for the defense I mean someone like Ndidi will be very suitable for this .
my opinion though am not a man city fan a Chelsea but the little I understand about man city.

Karlovich:
Very good conversion rate, but Mbappe was a better striker at that time.

TheGoodJoe:


The better striker for Mbappe was due to his all round play. When it came to finishing Nacho still ruled.

So it was a thing of preference.

All round play or team play to a clinical finisher.

Karlovich:
Both Iheanacho and Mbappe started their careers in 2015, after 2 seasons Iheanacho scored 21 goals in 64 appearances while Mbappe scored 27 goals in 60 matches, who was better finisher?

Barryseal:

Most be added, Mbappe played from the wings while Kelechi the tap in merchant, played as a standing striker.

NAIRALAND NIGERIAN FOOTBALL FANS (NNFF) AWARDS

NOMINATION OF AWARDS COMMITTEE MEMBERS

The Super Eagles have played all their matches for 2020, and to crown up all our analyses on Nigerian Players for the entire year, it is time for us to select players who have made more Impact than the others in various categories.

And, like it has always been, we need to nominate Monikers who will come up with the list of players in the various categories. Then, the entire house will do the voting.

NOTE: Being the Coordinator I am already part of the committee. No need to nominate Icon4s, so we need 6 more people who will join me.


All you need do is mention the Moniker you want to see in the awards Committee and CC: Icon4s and Bascovanveli. The Top 6 nominated monikers will join me in the Committee.

NOMINATION CLOSES 22ND NOVEMBER, 2020 @ 6PM (NIGERIAN TIME)

Let me open the floor:

I nominate Bascovanveli
Cc: Icon4s, Bascovanveli.

TheGoodJoe:


The finishing rate is judged by the amount of time. Not number of games. Lots of those Nacho games were not full time unlike Mbappe that was fill time and in a less competitive league (Ligue 1) unlike Nacho in less time in the English Premier League.

That is why the term of Goal per minute ratio.

TheGoodJoe:


There is nothing funny. You are just 3 years late to an already discussed topic.

do4luv14:

andrewbaba44:

Lol
You said aina you meant saka or what ?

andrewbaba44:
So Sebastian Haller later played for Ivory Coast instead of France

Dem no Dey tell mad man say war don start

Karlovich:
France ignored him for along time, he is a good addition to their side, Dembele and Doucouré turned down Mali despite no clear sign of a call up from France. I sometimes wonder what goes on in these player's mind.

smartsmith0907:


sorry I meant saka

TheGoodJoe:


Rodri's ball playing prowess is a big part of Guardiola's game plan. It is maintaining shape that is the challenge.

Either Rodri learns how to sit deep or Guardiola provides cover tactically.

As for limiting the attaching plays of De Bruyne, Bernado and co., the offensive play is not helping enough. We need to control the game more and attack with more caution.

Changing shape and maintaining tempo is the way to go.

Or Pep converts Rodri to a third ball playing defender.

smartsmith0907:



yh youre right bro Rodriguez should sit deep while while the likes of Bernardo or De bruyne drop a little bit deep to get the ball from rodri and anchor the midfield same thing tieleman is doing for Leicester.
I don't pep will change his tactics to a more defensive play coz that has not been his philosophy...it really difficult changing the team pattern and style...he just need to provide cover for the defense while rodri drop really deep to help the defense
my broda what do you think about lampard python tactics?

Karlovich:
Goal per minute ratio doesn't make him better than Mbappe, or are you trying to insinuate that someone who doesn't play regularly is better than someone that plays regularly. If so would you say that David Nugent and Francis Jeffers are better than Harry Kane for England because they had better/if not best goal to minute ratio for their Country.
