Sometimes, you talk because you must talk and not because you have something to say.

What is the difference between'groom' , 'nurture' and 'develop' ?

Tell me, I wanna learn

Groom is a privileged term and doesn't make reference to fair play and objectivity as well most deserving.

For instance it's apparent that Nwakali was groomed to be in the SE although completely undeserving and without any reference to outstanding performance in club and league.

Development and nurture are terms that are about creation , evolving, instituting, capacity , knowledge and ability.

My understanding and l am not conceited to think it's universal. But in general in my football environment in the UK the term grooming is considered in the negative and never used.

Oga M7even i salute,I thought he already had 18 goals this season but 13 league goals...How many goals Dennis scored in Bundesliga before moving to Watford but Awoniyi should spend another season to convince doubters.

Goals are indicative but not completely conclusive.

You really have to look at the club strategy and formation then you look at the kind of goals he scores.

That will tell you a lot about his true quality and if he can transfer that skill set to a better, more physical, much faster league.

We have to be realistic 99% of our footballers given opportunity will age cheat.

And unfortunately because there is no government based Automatic birth data capture in our nation and Africa in general. There is ample opportunity.

The other problems in Europe quality is intrinsically linked to age and therefore value and opportunity. No matter how good you are if you are 27 you may find little or no opportunity coming directly from my Africa.

However, change that age from 27 to 17 and the doors of opportunity in European football will be widely open to you.

This is the reality.

M7even:



Let's look at awoniyi's career rise through this lens and understand what I'm saying sir. At the under 17 he was behind Isaac success during the World Cup. Success is injured and Awo rises up to the occasion where he enjoyed success at the under 17 , he is the front man under manu garba at the under 21 level winning the super six with flying eagles against the top 5 or 6 NPL teams, winning the under 21 AFCON beating Senegal on home soil in the final.

Awo's rise at the youth championships did not situate him in the ranks of kelechi iheanacho or Isaac success who had earlier secured a move worth 3 million euros to udiness pre under 17 World Cup. His move to Liverpool who loaned him out on his journey to Germany-Belgium-Germany was viewed by many to have been decent considering his fringe players status.

I dare say he is the most successful of all players between the 2013 and 2015 player who was loaned out from his parent club and later found a stable path to rise. The Nwakali brothers had their parent club at Manchester City and Arsenal. But where are they today. The other starlet at Porto think yayha , chidera, etc where are they today? They've all hit a rock on their careers. Isaac success escapades and weight issues have brought him back to udiness.

Of all these guys only three of them have maintained a name due to sheer talent, luck and hard work. They are iheanancho osimhen and ndidi.

Awo is enjoying a rise, but he has been injured and has found it difficult settling down early on but this is quite different from osimhen' s whose career rather hit rock bottom with series of injuries.

Awo should look Sebastian haller who is a striker built like him. Haller did tear down the german league. But struggled at west ham. Dennis style and play is not the same with Awo. You can be a flop in a lesser league and come good at a revered league . I worry so much about Awo having to struggle in the EPL


Well though out comments and l agree with you.

Essentially the skill sets required for dominance in the Bundesliga are not the same for the EPL.

Haller did not struggle but FLOPPED £45 million pounds 45 games in the EPL and 10 goals is very poor.

However, he goes to the Eredivisie with the highly esteemed Ajax he is now top Goal scorer in that league and counting.

In general if you are looking at progression in your football you will find most of your players will and should be teenagers in your U20. This is trend in Europe.

Still developing in their clubs and league but showing considerable potential and promise not just raw brute strength and physicality.

If we were to go round the just the EPL and Championship, I am sure that I could assemble a team of outstanding quality of real teenagers showing quality potential and promise.

But many here would not like that unfortunately.

So let them keep putting forward these Uncles and using self deception to think these are promising youth players.

Haller was never a bad player, he was just used in a system that did not fit his style of play. He was like Joelinton under Steve Bruce.

Not when the club paid £45 million pounds for you.

And in any case 10 goals of over two seasons in the EPL irrespective of whether you cost nothing or £50 million is pathetic and POOR. Particularly as a striker in the quintessential number 9 role.
