sir Joe it's this high standards that you always use that makes you to see what lay beyond,

I asked you a question, you went and bring Xavi academy card, and Barcelona Academy, it's no longer an opportunity, or system,

it's now about barca academy right, yet you forget to realize that, that same academy was born out of an opportunity, and thru years and d
century of sweats and hard work, it is where it is today

sir stick to one facts and let's dwell on it to understand what we don't,

leave Xavi and barca academy out of it thanks

TheGoodJoe:


Why should we leave Barcelona and Xavi out of it?

You asked a question, about the meaning of at the moment abi?

I am showing you an example of at the moment.

The debate is about opportunity. These kids learn at a high level. I am showing you a credential of a 14 years old. These guys are coached by UEFA Pro licensed coaches.

This guys have high education. This is what is the kind of opportunity given to the likes of Tammy and Tomori, which the kids here do not have.

That is the crust of the debate. The gap in opportunity between the ones in Europe and here.

It is about education and chance to have a quality professional career. It leads to early break through in clubs and a good head start.

That Xavi's report card is a view into the debate. So I do not get why you are complaining.

AT THE MOMENT, WE CAN NOT GIVE OUR KIDS THE STANDARD OF EDUCATION THE EUROPEAN KIDS GET.

We do not have the facilities, kits, training staff and materials to achieve this. Our local system has been void of investment in these areas for years.

TheGoodJoe:


That will be astonishing is 0.1% of aspiring Nigerian kids make it to foreign pro football. We can't even dream it.

Heck, we can't even join academies.

Englandboy:
If he has use this same players to start in the first league he would have won, for now chukwueze is not a starter

Englandboy:

JohnBullMySon:
More than 0.5% of Aspiring Kids make it to the NPFL.

Tolulopefinest:


He'll come on to score the winning goal

Englandboy:
If he has use this same players to start in the first league he would have won, for now chukwueze is not a starter

Samueltemi337:
Oga most of the players that started this match started the Last one


just Moreno and dia


with this your analysis Danjuma shouldn't be a starter too


moreover Emery played Chukwueze as a striker in the first leg

JohnBullMySon:
Chukwueze is better as a super sub in this game.

TheGoodJoe:


NPFL is crap and no League or National league player wants to play there. So that is 0% achievement for our kids when compared to their European counterparts

JohnBullMySon:
They're better off starting in the NPFL

Yes Odun,the system is the key.We are getting it in the 80s to 90s but suddenly things turned upside down and till today we are in limbo,doing the same thing all the time with no success.

Those who managed our sports in the 80s have a very strong blue prints for grassroots development.....my secondary school handball team represented Nigeria in Finland,also selected outstanding talents in Kwara state secondary schools which i was part played football youth tournament known as Dana cup in Denmark.In the 80s secondary schools produced a lot of stars for national teams....

Olympian like former NTA sport presenter Hameed Adio,Olapade Adenakan,Ezenwas brothers,Chidi Imoh,Innocent Egbunike,Yusuf Ali,Falilat Ogunkoya,Mary Onyali are real grassroots discovery and most of them went from secondary schools to various universities in United States with NSC assistance.....Hakeem the Dream went straight from Ansaru Deen secondary school to United Stated as a basketballer.I can say much about Olapade Adenakan who was my area bro and how he started,the same thing late Sunday Bada,my mate Olympian Bisi Afolabi,these peoples started from secondary schools.

In the 80s st finbarrs produced real footballers for Nigeria national team,Stephen Keshi,Henry Nwosu,Samson Siasia but it is a pity seeing schools without sports field.

What really make it worst now,if you don't have the money you can't enroll your talented kids in football academies in Nigeria,am privy to this cos my senior bro is the Principal of Kwara football academy,meaning the real kids out there don't even have the chance to show case their skills.

I just don't know how things went berserk regarding sports development in Nigeria even in the 80s it wasn't like this...imagine secondary schools travelling out to represent Nigeria then...Oh my God,I remember when my school lost out to another school when America football was introduced newly,the school went to Canada on exhibition tour game.

Iheanacho just need to move to a club that would appreciate him more without that his contribution to the team would always end up in debating.

Less minutes or not he had 24 games so far and 4 goals.Yes top 5 in Leicester,Tammy was highest goal scorer with Chelsea last season despite frozen out of the team.

Iheabacho should just do the needful and move if he want to be rated like Sallah or Mane.

JohnBullMySon:
Villareal go shock people today

On my honest opinion Victor O is not technically astute to play in Arsenal. He is very one dimensional and Arsenal will not change their football DNA to accommodate him.

Look at all of Arsenal strikers in the past and present and make your conclusions.

Look at Pepe £75 million benched by a teenage Saka from the academy.

I will not be surprised if Arsenal go for Tega Abraham.

As at December 2021, Luiz Diaz was part of the Porto team, and according to Komekn back then he( Diaz) isn't good enough to make the Fulham team

andrewbaba44:


Porto at the epl will easily be a top 5 or 6 side ,but a Warri clown thinks otherwise and compare them to Fulham

Samueltemi337:
not true

andrewbaba44:


You think arsenal and spurs is better than Porto

Samueltemi337:
even Leicester city is better than them

TheGoodJoe:


Please, at the moment is now. I do not know how to say it. Please where in Nigeria can you give a child the kind of education obtained in Barcelona academy.

austineaddy:


Olapade Adeniken is the correct name
He is from Ondo state.

andrewbaba44:


Another deluded epl fan boy

I love how Luís diaz is faring at the epl
