You are right. It was in the Russian Premier League. And no it wasn't last week. It was on June 19. Just last month. Sochi bashed Rostov in a league game 10-1 and the 17yrs old Rostov keeper, Popov made like 15 saves. A record for most saves made in a Russian PL game they claimed. He was given MOTM.


The thing is Rostov had six players infected with the coronavirus so their entire first team had to be quarantined. They asked Sochi for a postponement and even wrote the FA but Sochi refused and insisted on the game being played as planned. This made Rostov field 17-19 yr olds from their youth set-up and they got baptised in fire real good. Lol

But that lad Popov was outstanding.

There was a league match last week were the keeper conceded 10 goals and still won MOTM

I have reported this before pages ago but I gotta do so again b'cos there are strong rumors of Ostersunds' young Nigerian, Attah Jordan Kadiri close to securing a move to Belgium. Specifically to Club Brugges. Time will tell if this pulls through.

Meanwhile, he is expected to be in action later today for his side in the Swedish Allsvenskan against Mjallby.

Simon plays in the ligue 1 and he got 8 goals and 9 assists.. please in which season did Moses get 8 goals and 9 assists in the premier league as a winger ?

Onyekuru managed to score 16 goals in the Turkish league playing as a winger, Moses was in that same league,how many goals did he score please ?


Moses is an average player as much as the other players we have in the team...he is no way an upgrade..
We should focus on getting younger and well talented players like Ejuke,Eze and Saka into the team and not asking Moses to come out of retirement...
He has nothing new to offer ...

So why is this Vic M who you describe as average able to go from the retirement league of Turkey leave Onyekuru there and jump to Inter Milan.

French league one is not on the level of Seria A and or the EPL. Why has Simon built in seem permanent house their.

Onyekuru and Simon can only dream if attaining the level of Vic M. for now they are far away.

Age is not the deciding factor in football but outstanding consistent performance in the HERE and NOW.

How old are Barcelona core top performing players and how old is Vic M for goodness sake . You are being emotive not objective.

Na the money be the benchmark? Na that one go determine his eligibility for call up to SE? You seem to forget why we are in this thread.

Will u rather call up an unproven league 1 or Championship player? Will you say Maja is ahead based on his past exploits in League one? Kome, KC’s numbers is one of the best we have and it’s not poor. It’s above average because we are talking EPL.


Your question is ambiguous and l can't get your meaning.

What do you mean by unproven

Josh Maja was the top goal scorer in league one before he left, but for me he has stagnated in the French league. He has not moved on it shown true quality.

Wether Osimhen decides to move or stay is fine by me

He prolly dey see wetin we no dey see hence his reluctance

I would advise him to leave.

French league is very erratic and apart from PSG, Monaco most teams seem to be inconsistent too me.

Next season Osimhen will be well known to everyone and it will not be as easy for him. Add to that Lille like to sell not build. And as a result the players that helped him rise to these levels may be gone.

He could find himself struggling and all the accolades if this season no longer associated with him and forgotten.

Strike while the iron is hot, my view.

He will get a very lucrative 5 year deal that will settle him for life he can build from Napoli. It will not be easy but life is about challenges.

Look at Lille top scorer in the 2018/19 Jonathan Bamba with 13 goals and look at how many he scored this season.

Did you just say stats arent entirely conclusive? Wooooooow.



Match Impact
Match Influence


Goal/game
Goal ratio





Im glad this came from you.


By this, you need apologize for the way you describe Nacho then.


Chuks too impacts that Villa team despite the stats.


New benchmark by you. I hope to use it going forward.

KC is a forward, doesn't have the technical ability and or speed to play Wing.

Is not a skilful enough to play with any degree of guile to play as an SS. Certainly is not a AM.

So tell me something that he does beyond poaching that brings outstanding quality to the team. He is not like Firminho in Liverpool.

If he doesn't play he is not missed.

If Vardy, Ndidi, Chilwell, Maddison don't play the difference is clear.

So what are we to commend him for, Being lucky

So it took Jamie Vardy only 5 seasons to reach 100 epl goals ?

While it took Chelsea legend Didier Drogba 8 seasons with more games to reach 100 epl goals also

Jamie Vardy is one of the most underrated striker in the world ,that’s if he is not the most underrated

Yakubu is the most underrated Nigeria striker ever ,we should not forget that this dude has 95 epl goals just behind Drogba and adebayor but Nigerians only care about speaking bad of him because of the South Korea miss as if dem go win that World Cup

Can l ask and how old is Vardy according to many here he is too old.

At his age he has some crazy pace, without him Leicester will be below mid table no arguement.

Stop fooling yourself. Victor Moses was crucial to Chelsea winning the EPL. Is Chuks crucial for Villarreal winning the la Liga?

Even at the national team level, Chuks has not done what Vicmo did. Until then. Let's discuss.

Bros, I think he is talking about Moses attitude in/to the National Team as shit and not that he is a player with shitty ability.

There is a saying what goes on in the dressing room stays in the dressing room.

Unless you are in that dressing room you really cannot be making these wilde negative assumptions.

And even when you are in that dressing room it's your perception it's not a fact.

Things I have been told that go on thier many of you will not believe and that's from individual players past and present.

Nerd Walahi u like wahala.

Abeg u just have to read some posts and move on

How on earth would someone described Victor Moses a shit player and started rating rookies like Chuckwueze,Kalu who have not done anything for eagles.

I remember it was here we are telling them that Moses Smon is a better player than Kalu Samuel. By

Damn too funny to see some stats guys always bringing out to analyse players.

Victor Moses started his career in EPL for God sake not backwater leagues were Kalu,Simeon Moses started,even talented Chuckwueze has not done anything to be compared to Victor Moses.

No wonder some don't even rate Musa a four WC goals scorer,telling us that unproven Kalu,Oyekwuru,Chuckwueze,Simeon are better.

When chips are down we know the real Super eagles players who aways rise to the occasion when we needed them most,they deserve little respect.

The likes of Chuckwueze,Oyekwuru,Kalu,Simeon need to convince us more cos we have seen better wingers like SegunOdegbami,Adokiye Aimesemeka,Felix Owolabi Humphery Edebor, George Finidi,Tijani Babanginda Emmanuel Amuneke,Victor Ikpeba,Victor Moses and Ahmed Musa.

Thank you

The bolded isn't a valid argument..
Moses had the privilege of growing up in England,hence he was able to get into an English club academy and start his career there like most of his peers.. The likes or Kalu,Simon, Chukwueze and Onyekuru meanwhile started from the streets and the academy..
They have been able to work their way from the bottom and gradually going to the top..
Look at Simon for example, from Slovakia to Belgium to Spain and now France... Same with Kalu.. Chukwueze from Villarreal B to Villarreal main team and now attracting interest from big teams .. Onyekuru from Qatar to Belgium to Turkey and now France.
These boys may not have done nothing special for super eagles yet,but please don't belittle them... They have what it takes to be better than Moses and all those past wingers you mentioned there..

Just like those past players you mentioned,Moses has played his part for the team.. he helped us win the AFCON, he helped us qualify for the world cup.. He has done well!
Just like Mikel and Enyeama,they should be allowed to enjoy their retirement in peace while we give opportunity to the news boys in the team..

New is certainly not a measurement of better and in the context of Nigeria new is not neccesarily younger.

So because you went to a better school you should step aside for those who went to a poor school and had to struggle to get to your level.

You are being prejudiced and pushing forward double standard that's bigoted.

Elder Uncle Kog, I greet u. I just wanted to balance things really.

Victor Moses remains the best winger we had in the last decade (2010 - 2019). Absolutely no debate about that. He deserves some
huge respect abeg.

Also, right now, what he has achieved has not been attained or surpassed yet by any of our current young wingers.

I must admit though that the current wingers like Chukwueze, Simon, Kalu, Ejuke, Bonaventure, Onyekuru still have their best years in front of them and are all still upcoming.

One or maybe two of them could end up matching or surpassing Victor Moses' legacy of achievements with the Super Eagles and at club level and a few of them like Chuks truly have world class potentials to be much more but they are still growing so UNTIL THEN, we must accept that FOR NOW, Victor Moses is their boss on the wings.


This is my submission.



On this occasion l can find reason to agree with you.

I've always known he would favor a move to the EPL, reason why he's stalling. Whatever decision he makes eventually, I hope it's the right one.

It's not as if any of those teams had been serious about acquiring his services.
