Nwakali is a very good player. He has been unlucky so far!
Anytime I watch him play I marvel. Just watch his game against Athletico Madrid!

Chaves provides him the opportunity to showcase his extra ordinary talent and he will and get that move to higher things.
Better late then never. Look at Akpom now!

Chuba Akpom is one in a thousand.

Listen to your delusions you are talking about an inconsequential friendly match of 5 years ago , please don't be so desperate.

Nwakali has been in Europe for 8 years and nothing achieved of substance in football.

Stats are indicative not conclusive and when taking out of context outright misleading and deceptive.

Kelechi nwakali >>>>>>> Gideon zelalem

Both were hype prospects with huge potential but fall short of becoming an all round player

All top scouts knows and see this that’s why he’s not drafted by a top team right now

But I’m not scared Virgil vandyk made it at age 28

So who’s to say nwakali wont be a late bloomer

I get the fanboyism we love our boy i do too

Using level of wages strictly as a metric of a player's ability is a measurement that will let you down from time to time.

There are tons of players who earn ridiculously high wages we know they nowhere deserve but hey it is what it is.

Speaking strictly about Nwakali the move to Portugal is obviously in the right step. The Portuguese league is rated sixth I think in Europe which is definitely a step up from the Spanish second divisions.

Nwakali will face stiffer competition and better opposition in Portugal hopefully for himself and his fans he will come good.

Before you decide to regurgitate the money argument I hope you know that nearly 75% of clubs in Germany, Spain, Italy and France can't match the spending power of even the bottom 10 EPL clubs yet the football they play is way superior.

The Portuguese league has a huge gulf between the top 6/7 clubs and the bottom 4/5 clubs. The bottom clubs without prejudice will struggle in English League two. Again without Prejudice Enyimba will flog and leave in the dust Chavez FC.

Is it better to be in Southampton in the Championship average income £34k a week or the Portuguese Premier league with Chavez FC average weekly income £1.5k .

We can't deny that batter players cost money and if your average weekly salary is £1.5k you are surrounded by carpenters and poor quality players. You are not going to get noticed.

The big question are we going to miss him?,not yet cap,so one cannot say cuz we have CFs doing it week in week out but Orban will give us real dynamism in eagles if going by what he is doing in Belgium.

Egbon, I will call a spade a spade, if anyone consistently talks down on someone, more or less insinuating that player won't amount to much in life, that's totally unnecessary and going beyond football analysis, in my opinion that's pure hate and it's devilish!!! Yes I agree with you we shouldn't over hype any player and conversations should be based on facts and logic but when anyone wishes another human bad and acts like God, that's nothing but witchcraft!!!! In the here and now, yes let's say player A or B isn't good enough but not wish them bad, these guys are humans too.
I rest my case egbon mi, help me greet Kenny o and

Kelechi Nwakali is not hyped the way you guys try to paint it. It is just an excuse to try to run the guy street. Kelechi Nwakali was strictly called for his ball playing and passing attributes. Those attacking Mikel were mostly doing it out of hate, and not football reasoning. Same with Kelechi Nwakali. What the hell does how much he earns have to equate to his attributes?

Nwakali is a talent that is universally agreed on this thread but he needs to fulfill that potential before hyping him to high heavens.

Akor Adams has scored in two games now for his club in France does that now mean he's world class? Of course not! At best he's a prospect who will get better at worst he's going through a purple patch.

I'm happy for Kelechi that he's getting game time in a decent European league but he will have to do a lot more to convince me he's the missing piece in the midfield of the SE.

Truth be told if we had two or three half decent CMs playing in various top five European clubs Nwakali's name wouldn't frequently come up in conversations here.


How many midfielders can deliver two accurate crosses per game

Having a midfielder that has that level of precision in crosses of the ball is very massive and commendable. This should open up a probe into the talents of the man, Kelechi Nwakali.

Have a think about it , consider the income average of Ponferradina and that of Chavez FC. Shockingly Ponferradina is actually higher. It looks like a move from one level of mediocrity to another. Nothing to be commended here IMO.
How much is your weekly wages in your profession?
Bring up the proof of how much u presently earn.

Show us how much u have earned since u turned pro,or since u started working,
let us compare it with ur other fellow professionals,
and let us see how u have progressed ahead of them,
and how u are among the best,
or among the highest earners because of your so good quality.

And after that,
bring up ur net earnings let us compare it with Nwakali's net income and see who has been richer based on the quality of services both of u have rendered.

Also take note of the level of opposition he's facing.

Wages or no wages he has moved to division one a very good step after facing a lot as a young man right from Arsenal to segunda and now back in top flight football….My prayer is for him to move up more not even for super eagles career which is sure bet for him based on what we have and also pray for his financial stability when football stopped.

I'm not even angry at Nwakali, even though I believe he's lived an average life as a footballer despite his promising flashes in his early days. I'm angry at those who keep bringing stats and mentioning his name here every damn day. Like, without him we are doom or what?

Do you know how many midfielders we have that are wasting away without call-ups?

The fact you keep mentioning Nwakali shows how low your options are in life and how average you are as a human being.

There are better fishes out there; mention them and unearth them. Let wasted talents lay low in their lane until they wake-up fully... if ever!
