Amuneke confirms Maduka is still first choice

https://www.brila.net/we-cant-drop-maduka-okoye-because-of-one-mistake-amuneke/

Maduka is just like De Gea. Mistake prone but still very talented.

Comparing De Gea to Maduka is quite a stretch. Akpeyi and Maduka may actually share more similar attributes.

Mistake prune, but still talented?

That's a stupid assertion from Amunike.

What if that one single mistake cost you, like it did the last time?

He should not be first choice. They're even making him like he cannot be replaced. Hence more mistakes.

Rather, talk like he can be replaced if he keeps making mistakes and dude will seat up. Say it as it is.

Na Why I like Mourinho be this. Mah Oga go just send you go reserve team go learn lesson, even if you be Drogba. Lol.

You are really in drugs

What concerns what a player earns and his footballing ability ?

Go and ask Neymar, Mbappe, Lukaku, etc ❓❓

There is a direct and incontrovertible relationship between what a player earns his unique skill set and his attributes .

To get those unique attributes that will bring competitive advantage in the game for the club ,they the club are willing to pay and what they pay is a reflection of the value placed on your attributes.

What your are saying is balderdash.

“If you want to be a striker for Liverpool, you have to work your f***ing socks off in each game.

“You have to defend the width, you have to defend whatever. That is important.

“That’s why we change. Not because they didn’t score, because they scored and we still change.

“But it’s about how much can they help us in all the situations, and for that you need fresh legs.”
- Klopp

CC: Thegoodjoe .. Klopp is clearly hinting here that he has specific preference for the number nine role.. Not much different from what Eguavon is saying.. Expect that I don't think that kind of preference can work in a national team setting due to limited time to try out new things..

Klopp is absolutely keyed into work rate, this is something the football analysts make report's on continuously. Can we do more is the question.

I am know a youth player under 18 , ABSOLUTELY outstanding , skilful, dominant and technically astute.

He doesn't have to do too much at U23, U19 etc to dominate and as a result his work rate can be suspect. But it's not noticed at youth level AT ALL.

However, he goes to first team training and it becomes exposed and a lesser player get into the first team because he works relentlessly although he is not as good. That youth player is Tyler Morton.

Or your go back further Dele Alli from league one to Tottenham and England.

Porto doesn’t have money like Fulham ,and that means Fulham are better than them

Stop being deluded

Go and ask Mané why ekuke player like Hudson odoi is earning more than him since bigger salary is a better player

You can also ask salah why Jadon sancho is earning more than him since you no wan receive sense

Eredivisie is a lowly rated league but the Championship is not, you even brought up league one players. You think the national team is a circus grin grin

Our player's in the current team a good number are from Turkey, Cyprus, S.Africa, Bundesliga 2, Segundo division.

Where did our arguably best Midfielder come from Aribo is it not league one essentially.

So you are calling the SE a circus or your being bigoted with double standard.

1.That's the problem, Eguavoen is hung up on the past and is too player centric.

A good coach harnesses the talents at his disposal and adopts tactics suited to their strengths and to neutralize the opponents.

For example, Tunisia was depleted and without 12 players (some of them key players) when they played us at the AFCON. The coach did not whine. Instead, he adopted a tactical formation that overloaded the midfield, played close & compact, cut off our wingplay by double marking our wingers and got the win.

2. Eguavoen is misyarning and making gaffes all over the place.

➡️Admitting some players were invited to pacify certain people & interests

➡️Saying he has not traveled to watch some players play live and that's why they were not invited.

That's a nonsensical statement. This is 2022 for crying out loud and with the internet one can comfortably watch matches in the comfort of his/her living room and assess players.

➡️Hyping a retired player with questionable commitment and trying to bring him back into the fold

➡️Saying he knows his starting 11 against Ghana when the players have not reported to camp and had any training.

➡️Saying he cannot play through the middle (midfield) because he lacks players like Mutiu Adepoju and the late Thompson Oliha.

When you juxtapose the last two statements, you'll realize Eguavoen has already given away his formation and tactics for the game against ghana

Eguavoen no try abeg.


By the way, there was nothing special in Thompson Oliha and Mutiu Adepoju. It's just Eguavoen and his nostalgia for the past.

I have seen Eguavoen through and through.
I kept talking about the wrong things with him, before the AFCON and after.
The explanation he gave regarding Onazi's invitation is one of his methods of making excuses for a possible failure. He is always blaming things, he is always counting on luck.

I pray the coach that will take over from him won't be worse.

It's unfortunate that Championship teams dont get to play in Europe unless they win the FA Cup .

Otherwise I believe Fulham have a good chance of beating Porto.

Stop being sentimental and emotive.

Objectively speaking give me two forward player in Porto that are better than Ryan Kent and Mitrovich in Fulham. Assesss and appraise in a quasi balance score card methodology.

Add to that the entire defence of Porto Vs Fulham.

Please don't just say they are better appraise with specifics don't be ASSUMPTIVE be objective. And if you open your mind you will begin to see a different perspective.
Oga come tell us how Dennis have scored more goals in a single season than KC in 3 seasons, don't tell me you just type without thinking.

I tire o.

If Villarreal had lost, he'll tell you that apart from Madrid, Barcelona and AthletiCo, all other teams in the La Liga will struggle to be in the top 15 of the Championship.

They say make we accept everybody opinion for here maybe Subzero go help Andrew help us tow am commot from this thread.

Food for thought

The best striker in the Eredivisie couldn't get more than 7 Goals in the EPL, his last season he had 3 goals in the EPL.

The best strikers in the Championship last season are in the EPL and have Toney 11 and 7 Pukki goals already with about 10 games left in the EPL.

The best striker in Villa Real, is Arnaud Danjuma left the Championship he is on 8 goals from 18 games. He wasn't the best striker in the Championship. Villarreal paid £25 million for him.

Look at the top 10 strikers in the Eredivisie and tell me one who is better than Mitrovich. Because Haller is definitely not.

Another look at transfer fees for player's from this Championship that you look down at with disdain. Ollie Watkins cost Villa £30 million from Brentford and Benrahma to West Ham about £20 million. That's just one club.

To make it easier for you see the list below. Open your mind and do an objective.

La Liga is a top leagues but with huge disparities between clubs. So in the past two decades the league had essentially been Real, Barca and Athleti

However for teams from mid table and below they would not dominate the Championship in my opinion.

Vardy was the highest goal scorer in the EPL for Leicester last season with 15 goals. I tend to lean to only EPL where the quality of opposition is of s particular standard.

As opposed to cup games where you may play weakened teams by selection and or very low league teams. This gives a skewed view of a player ability.

From 2017 season to 2019 KC played 71 game's and scored 9 goals. Dennis has not completed his first season in the EPL and has already scored 9.

Actually Mane gets considerably more of than Odoi, l assure you with all the performance related clauses. I don't need to say more.

Porto have a business model buy them cheap sell them high and place huge transfer clauses on their contracts. This happens a lot with African players in Portugal. I no longer have much dealing with Portugal.

Tell me one club that put in an official bid that Leicester refused.

Bissouma had a £ 30 million rejected in the January window.

Valuation are academic not to be relied upon.

Djed Spence I've spoken about him before on loan from Middlesbrough to Nottingham Forest. His transfer market value is currently £2.5 million.

But I can assure you he will go for 10 times that fee in the summer window. Watch this space. That's to buttress my point about academic transfer valuations.
