Onuachu has been scoring goals right from his time in Denmark. Its not a new thing. I only wonder why the Nigerian Peter Crouch has not moved to a top league. His numbers are there for all to see

His Denmark goal stats is different bro

Don’t make it look like onuachu was averaging 1 goal in every 2 games at Denmark

131 league games at Denmark and 51 goals is not that impressive to me and cannot be compared to 68 league games and 51 goals

In the future, I will remember Musa for his 4goals at the world cup, but I will never celebrate him as someone who managed a century of caps for the eagles. Yobo and Enyema got theirs on merit, Musa is getting his fraudulently, hence, in my book, I can never place him in the same league as those previous two. A century of caps must be earned, and every count of it must be merited otherwise it looses its value. The NFF should stop the history of helping players to fraudulently earn a 100 caps to the detriment of the team. Well, this is Nigeria, a failed state.

Really happy with Osimhen's goal scoring exploits this season. In just 7 games he has scored 70% of his goal tally for last season. He is also gradually building himself as the main man for the Neapolitans. Long may it continue.

Well you are entitled to your opinion on Musa. Whatever the shenanigans of the NFF using all means by hook or crook to earn 100 caps I disagree that Musa is an undeserving of the milestone.

We can't just dismiss his performances at the World Cup as a mere footnote. If other players did what he did in those tournaments we will rightly praise them so why should Musa's own be different because you don't like him.

Musa has also been a constant presence in the team during the good and bad days. He was there when nobody wanted to associate with the team and they were called super chickens.

In output Musa has performed even better than some of our favorites. Is goals or assists Musa's numbers are up there with the best SE of the past and present.

We can criticize his current place in the team and say he has overstayed his welcome (by the way his case won't be the first Greats like Keshi, Kanu and Yobo stayed in the team past their prime) but I won't denigrate his contributions to the national team. No slander to the Governor

CALVIN BASSEY

Why are you guys over hyping this boy? He is that good, yet he can't pin down a starting place at Rangers?

By the way, the boy should understand he is African, hence he should go make peace with his dad. He will only be ridiculing himself bearing his mum's maiden surname instead of his original surname(Ughelumba) just because the mum had a strained relationship with the father in Italy. I read the man never left and that he has been trying to be a part of the boy's life, instead the mum has been doing everything to turn the kids against their father, leaving the Ozubulu man in tears, as he couldn't stand his son turning to a total stranger just before his very eyes.

Dude, according to our naming culture, as the legal son of Ikenna Kingsley Ughelumba, you are Calvin Ughelumba, not Calvin Bassey, as your mum has forced you to ID with.

Well you said he doesn't deserved to be celebrated like other centurions like Yobo and Enyeama without any firm points to back your assertion.

Yes we can say we don't like how Musa is getting his recent caps but how is it any different from Yobo who you compared him to?

It's your right to dislike Musa but you can't drop "hot takes" and not expect it to be challenged and drop a feeble excuse of itching fingers.

It's because you are Chris as well that I am also trying to understand your point.

The point is simple, Musa was immense for the eagles in his best days, but as long as being a centurion is concerned, he got his through the backdoor unlike the likes of Enyama and Yobo, hence I will celebrate him for every other thing but being a centurion. He didn't earn it, rather it was given to him, politically.

Was Yobo's own "earned"?

Going into the 2014 WC was Yobo our best defender? Remember at the time Omeruo and Oboabona were our defensive pairing. Keshi even dropped Joseph from the squad for some time until the WC came around so will you say Yobo fraudulently earned his 100 caps?

Were those on the bench as good as Yobo or was any of them doing better than Yobo at the club level? During Yobo's time, we didn't have capable hands and he was also still playing at the apex with Fenerbahce and Norwich in the EPL, hence, his was justifiable. Tell me where Musa plays, and tell me if Musa is as good as any of our present bench materials in his position

No, you are wrong, it is already in the public. He is a public figure, and he is supposed to have his home in order so he doesn't become an object of ridicule. He needs to be reminded. You all be trying to be more Western than the westerners, hence sweeping our customs and traditions under the carpet. When a child is going the wrong way, you ought to give him corrections, then it is left for him to heed or not. He was not born out of wedlock, so it is silly for him to adopt his mother's maiden surname and have his own surname relegated. We believe in "afa m efuna"

Musa plays in the same Turkey Yobo was at the time. About Yobo being better than those on the bench then why didn't Keshi recall him until few months to the WC? If he was at least good for the bench he would have involved Yobo for the crucial business end of the WC qualifiers.

Same Turkey really? For a club that just got promoted? While Yobo was a starter for the then best club in Turkey, do you know Musa is a bench warmer for the worst club in Turkey?

Lol Musa that was getting call ups even when he was club less and a non playing Kano pillar?

So, you would take Egwuekwe ahead of the then Yobo who was in champions league with Fenerbahce?

Sorry man, I'm done with you on this.
