Most Nigerians are just WICKED people based on allegations. Last season, it was reported that Moyes turned down signing Dennis because of a report about his attitude in Nigeria camp. Today, some of them are here posting “unverified” reports that he is Overage knowing which can possibly discourage any real club from signing him. Nigerians Very WICKED/EVIL people They really deserve buhari because an apple doesn’t fall far from a tree

Samueltemi337:
They were already slaughtering him on social media after being out for 40 days
Osimhen in 40 minutes created panic, he made some mistakes, but look at this picture
Starts from 50 yards to go press a ball that never looks like it could be his.
And instead he takes it.

He works had for his team and his pressing is no doubt too notch

mostob:
Ever heard the saying, work smart, not hard ? That's what's applicable here. Haaland doesn't exert his energy pressing anyhow. All he has is positioning and high sense of anticipation. I have never seen any player who is ahead of Haaland in both qualities.

The fact that Osimehn presses hard doesn't mean he will definitely score more goals than Haaland in the City team. Osimehn in that City team will give the MSN vibe where every forwards will have almost the same number of goals and assists.

Both are quality players but with remarkable differences.

This season alone based on the chances Osimehn misses and his bad positioning, he should had scored Double figures already by this time. But, he is still young and has time to grow so long as he improves on his weekness like bad positioning, missing Sitters and scoring screamers

Chai super eagles players are in form. The regular World Cup that our previous coach was guaranteeing is not even guaranteed anymore because of Stupid fans expectations

Saka haas scored against all the big 6 teams in England. Big game player! He doesn’t even have to score many goals just perform on the Big games

Another way to become a legend while not scoring many goals is to always PERFORM on BIG games lol. I just checked George weah numbers and asked myself how he won balon d’oor with such numbers. 18 goals a season in all competitions for Milan was good enough to win the balon d’or

We just need to ditch the idea of playing 2 wingers because we have so many top strikers. For now, we can play 2 out and out strikers osimehn and Moffi alongside one winger. The midfield 3 must never be compromised

Meliforme:
You play down Osimhen's kindness and TheSuperNerd's good works, just to make a point.

You’re a BASTARD. no one is playing down is kindness or whatever that means.

TheSuperNerd:
And you clearly knew I was referring to league goals when I dropped Osimhen's goals Stats from 2019/20 till 2021/22. Your reply didn't even try to say I was speaking off-point.

But then... since you say goals across all competitions in a season and not just league goals... then you again just shot yourself in the foot....

You should know this....

OSIMHEN SCORED 20 GOALS IN BELGIUM AS A 19-20 year old in the 2018/19 season.

That alone renders your point as already dead, null and void on arrival.





P.S:
And those George Weah Stats are not for his 1995 Ballon D'or year, Sir. Go back and do a proper homework.

Besides... I clearly asked you to show me where Weah bagged 20 league goals in any season at all. Fact is he never did. His highest ever was 18.

Despite you trying to play smart, The context was always the league goals. Always.

Goodnight.

My Apologies for calling you a CRIMINAL sha. Nonetheless, the Belgium league is a backwater league sha. In my opinion, I want Osimehn to score 20 to 25 goals a season before signing for a big club because big clubs aren’t patient with black players I.e Lukaku if you disagree with my stance, we can agree to disagree

TheSuperNerd:
This is not corporate America, Man. This is Football.

Now, tell us one time George Weah himself dropped 20 league goals in one season before or after he won the Ballon D'or.
Infact, tell us he dropped a 20-goals season overall (not league alone ooo) in his 1995 Ballon D'or year.

Talk. I dey wait....


And oh... he was a black man by the way.

Hehehehehehehe... Checkmate-in-waiting.

Look at this CRIMINAL trying to change my words. I said “20 goals a season” and not 20 league goals. More so, I hope the Criminal isn’t trying to compare Osimehn to weah? I remember how the begging agent was saying Osimehn is better than Haaland until haaland made him drink shit. Anyway, osimehn has the potential to be a World class striker but, he needs to refine his game and score 20 goals for Napoli before aspiring to sign for Marquee clubs. Marquee clubs aren’t patient with Black players and if you no perform, dem go Finish you. Now, go and beg for a New Jersey Nnama


George weah: 1991/92 stats
Total 91/92: 47 23 8 2

23 goals in all competitions for Monaco then he transferred to Milan. Also, the 1990’s was more difficult to score than presently

Danielnino00:
I,just like many others here we're disappointed in him moving go Croatia, but his performance so far has been awesome...Some "lion in a small league" thingy.... I wonder if Komekn would acknowledge that in the future or disregard it with his "for context, the Scottish league is rated on the same level as the English league one....bla bla...."

Croatia is a Backwater league sorry I don’t even rate backwater leagues

TheSuperNerd:
Tell me one time even a fit Morata registered 20 league goals for any side. Just tell me one.

I doubt you would find one yet Morata has featured for most marquee clubs (Real Madrid, Chelsea, Atletico Madrid and Juventus).


Now... You just read facts and called it story, story, story.

But since you believe and know what a fit Osimhen can do... then that settles this discussion.

The wrong move would have been Osimhen moving to Man Utd this summer like some Shameless Man U fans in here wanted but thanks goodness that didn't happen.

Next Summer, Osimhen will likely get his big move after having another strong season in the Serie A under his belt. Maybe Man U will be a better place by then... time will tell. Other options also exist. Next Summer will tell it all.

So chill out with your "wrong move-destroy career" talks. He's been at Napoli for 3 seasons now including this current one. You make it sound like he's been on the move every other season.

Unfortunately, just like in cooperate america, a white player can fail multiple times and still be given opportunities but if a black man fail once, he might be done. The guy is still a young player that will have time to play for a big club. For now, let him give us 20 to 25 goals

TheSuperNerd:
He is ready to lead the Liverpool attack lines. Truth is he will have Joy in the EPL playing for a side like Liverpool.

And a fit Osimhen is definitely capable of hitting 20 goals in a league season.

You must understand that since 2019/20, factors have prevented him hitting 20 per season.


In 2019/20, he was on 13 league goals with 10 games left to play and the league was stopped due to Covid. It never resumed.

In 2020/21, his first season at Napoli, he finished with 10 league goals. Injuries kept him out of action for slightly over 2 months or so combined.

In 2021/22, again injuries struck and he missed nearly 2 months of action but he finished with 14 league goals.

Now again, he's already on 2 league goals in his first 5 league games. Injuries struck again.

A Stably fit Osimhen will bag 20 easily. That's the truth.

Story story story. Yes, I believe that a fit Osimehn is capable of scoring 20 goals but let him do it first then he can think of transferring to a marquee club. The wrong move can totally destroy a player career

TheSuperNerd:
Not ready for what exactly?

To play for Liverpool as their main striker except he is going there as a backup. Napoli is actually a good team that osimehn needs to conquer before going to the next level. Osimehn hasn’t even scored 20 goals a season yet and a wrong move can possibly destabilize a player career I.e (Sanchez alexis)

TheGoodJoe:
I have one word to advice Liverpool.

OSIMHEN.

He isn’t ready yet

komekn:
This match took place over 4 years it was an inconsequential friendly match for Athletico Madrid.

That's the context.

If this match was of such great importance and quality ,then the players who participated, will have had a career boost. Will you agree❓

You would expect selection will be based on outstanding consistent exceptional performance.

That being the case Nwakali and Nwakali should have had serious progession by NOW. But Chidi Nwakali is now playing in Saudi Arabia and Kelechi Nwakali is in the doldrums of the Segundo division.

Not much more to say.

Why you hate these guys so much na?? Free them bro

Our coaches needs to make midfield a priority and stop calling only 4 midfielders. From now on, we need a midfield selection of at least 6 midfielders in a team of 23. 2 Am, DM and CM on a 23 man squad

TheSuperNerd:
Raphael Onyedika bossing the midfield vs Atletico Madrid is testament to my observations on this Boy.

He is the Upgrade on Ndidi in that CDM role. Been saying it for a while now. Pick the best ONLY no matter where they play.

Ball on Onyedika. Onye Baller.

He is a good player but no forking disrespect Ndidi.

Anguissa is a player that I want our present midfielders to emulate. 2 way type of midfield

TheSuperNerd:
Here it goes....

*Onyedika was the most fouled player in the game (3)

I wasn’t impressed by onyedika in his cameo appearance for SE

How come no one talked about the impressive performance of our defense vs Algeria. Infact, I was mostly impressed at them passing the all from defense instead of holding it. Once again, I hope our midfield and formation do not ruin a talented SE team

TheSuperNerd:
We keep defending Nonsense, that's why.

Uzoho and Okoye have shown in this window that indeed your inactivity at club level can really expose you in international games. That Match sharpness and concentration in vital moments of the game won't be there.

Even Adebayo made an error in the Algeria B game but at least, Simon was there to save the day. Aside that, he was okay for his first game.

I hope we see more of him so We can know for sure if we are also wasting our time with him or if he is the real deal.

Onyeka was doing a 2 man job yesterday considering that we played with 2 midfielders. Infact 424 isn’t a modern day formation and any coach that use that formation is outdated

TheSuperNerd:
4 major errors in this international break based on their roles were all made by Benchwarmers at their Clubs.

Okoye, Uzoho and Onyeka.

We aren't ready to be serious as a football nation. Keep calling up inactives and expect miracles okay.

Keep calling up lads who don't uplift the team tactically and technically. Just keep doing same of the same. Nonsense.

I rated that list 4/10 and it showed how right I was.

The question is, who are the alternatives? As bad as uzoho, okoye are they’re the best available presently and it’s sad. At the end of the day, we just have to be realistic on our expectations of the super eagles

I like the center defenders trying to pass the ball at the back but eventually it will result to a goal. I like my defenders old fashioned I.e maldini

kenzysmith:
Asamoah Gyan, mutari,badu,Suarez, and other super stars went back to their and played at least a season to give back to their league but our players no go ever come back how the league want take grow setting bad examples even yenkini who was Nigeria all time scorer and an afcon winner humble himself to play in the NpFL. no be your fault baba na okocha and them KANU wey dey feel too big to come play for our league na. Start am

The same country that kidnapped his dad when he was playing at the world cup

Danielnino00:
If you're wondering why North African teams can't extend their dominance in Africa to thr world stage, look at this game... Look at the officiating and thr behavior of their fans... On top ordinary friendly..

We saw this during the WAFCON in Morocco...

Abeg shurrup. Their fans has every right to demand Winning by any means necessary. You should blame Nigerian fans for forming peacemaker when it’s time for us to reciprocate it. I remember vividly how Nigerian fans were hailing partey and co when they arrived Abuja instead of scaring them off

Amedino99:
e don do bro. Even your fellow in the lord that staked his house to play the wcq has reduced his lamentations.your darling daddy could not win AFCON even when his team was yet to be playing rubbish. Is it when we were playing ultra Haram football he would win the tournament. Get over it bro. Even if you reverse time to December 2021 I would still prefer he is sacked again

Instead of apologizing clowns will keep digging

Subzero047:
It's time to move on from Ndidi

Move on from Ndidi at 25 playing at Epl? Because of some in form Backwater league players?? I’m glad that some of you guys aren’t coaches

charlesemeka85:
yes I agree that his sack was merited but rohr would hv qualified the team ahead of ghana

That wouldn’t hv been achieved with pretty football knowing what was at stake. We all know Rohr’s conservative style would hv made the game more boring and rigid but tactically he would hv scrapped a win to qualify

Ghana wasn’t better but tactical their rookie coach was miles ahead of egu in both legs

Also against Tunisia at the last afcon the German would hv ousted the North Africans

How was his sack merited when he met all his contractual obligations? To me, I feel like all the bad luck super eagles experienced at ANC and wcq could be attributed to Karma.

Danielnino00:
It's been almost a year since Rohr was sacked and none of the so called big teams have approached him for a coaching job... They told us that the likes of Algeria and Morocco were courting him...
BS!

Somebody who has been coaching for 4 decades now and no trophies to his name..


I'll repeat it for anyone that care to listen..Sacking him wasn't a mistake... The timing of the sack and the replacement gotten were the mistake...

Sacking him wasn’t an error yet his replacement couldn’t accomplish what he accomplished with ease? The mumu even said timing issue? When was Ghana coaches hired

Danielnino00:
Your excuse for number 2 isn't very clear .Rephrase it ..
Number 3, I don't see what Dalung has to do with that. Uyo stadium was the best available stadium pitch in the country at that time and it served us well.. What was the need to move the super eagles away from there? It all started after the world cup qualifiers ended.. Port Harcourt,Asaba, Benin city and then Lagos.. Dalung left, Sunday Dare came in but the matter remained...

Number 4, we failed to qualify for the AFCON twice in 2015 and 2017.. Under his tenure .
Our failure to qualify for this year world cup is on the NFF not the fans... I will say it again, sacking Rohr wasn't and can never be a mistake .The mistake was with the timing of the sack .When it was obvious that the man wasn't heading in any direction,they should have laid him off..Instead they offered him a new contract and kept him until the last minute ..
Number 5, I suggest you do some research... Was Nike paying the NFF in naira too? What about money received from FIFA and CAF? Money for participating in friendlies?

My friend, shut up because you make no sense. The fans were responsible for that coach sack considering that he met all his targets, it was an unmerited sack and we were compensated with our worst ANC performance in 30 years/no World Cup. The team that eliminated us were in a worse predicament than us After ANC and they got the ticket

I have been hearing good reviews about iwobi resurgence at Everton but I am unsure regarding his best position. My question to you Analyst, is iwobi best position CM or CAM?
