TheGoodJoe:
I think people are allowed to have diversed opinions and make remarks based on their current beliefs. I think komekn has a bias but I think we all do to some extent.

However, we should kill that belief we are always right because it hinders our ability to learn from others.

We might not agree with some of komekn or each others opinions but we should reduce the backlash. Backslashes can make a person hold back when he has an opinion.

Diverse points is what will keep this thread going on for long time.

Please house, we need to reduce the abuses to appreciate each other.

Finito.
Thanks for this

I expect more members to denounce the insulting statements that seems to.have become fashionable

Hey Chris... Can you all spot Iwobi's expression in the background. It is faded but one can still make it out.... Sad that his team loses but perhaps within that sadness is a small hint of Happiness for Nacho. But right here, right now, in this pic... Iwobi was sad mehn... Especially with Ndidi's mad celebration for Nacho. cheesy

Club Brugge winger Emmanuel Dennis has predicted that Lille goal poacher Victor Osimhen will play for either Barcelona or Real Madrid in the near future.

Dennis is aware of the qualities of 2015 FIFA U17 World Cup Golden Boot winner as they were teammates in Nigeria's U23 National Team before their promotion to the Super Eagles.

Touted as one of the brightest young prospects in Africa by the Confederation of African Football, Osimhen has taken the Ligue 1 by storm since his arrival from Sporting Charleroi in the summer and he is expected to move to a more glamorous league if he maintains his goalscoring form.

The Ultimate Strikers product netted during Lille's 1-0 win against Dijon last weekend, taking his tally to 10 goals in all competitions.

''Osimhen is one of the best attackers in France and even in the world. I think he will go far, as far as Barcelona or Madrid. I see him end up in Spain," Dennis told Téléfoot.

With 4 goals and two assists to his name in his last four matches for the senior national team, Osimhen has quickly established himself as the heir to retired Nigeria international Odion Ighalo.
As a replacement for Suarez in Barca is a big possibility but I wouldn't advice him to near Madrid. With Messi behind hi., he would be banging so much goals

shameless man so they gave him opportunity to play so that they can get him in the shop market. See your 5 naira reasoning. We care less about that as long as nacho has been able to prove to everyone that he still have the talent and he has been able to perform each time he gat opportunity to play. 3 games this season, 3 goals and 1 assist is not a little feat. If Leicester city decide to sell him January, it gat nothing to do with his low quality but everything to do with their over reliance on vardy. Nacho is too good to be on the bench and we are very sure he won't lack any suitor in epl.




















Go ffuck yourself.. Wizard of lie. I nor dey go work today. I dey here dey wait u. Nonsense.
Bros, I agree that Komekn is very biased and polarized in his views and comments

But these insults aren't necessary. I know you're passionate about the Super Eagles and KC Nacho. We all are but we aren't fanatical fans here. We are respectful and courteous fans. We are loyal fans. We are humble fans. We don't respond to issues with insults. We do so with facts and figures.

This thread is a safe haven for some of us. We come here to chill and relax and relate with one another as unseen family that we are. Not to throw insults up and down. Are you saying that you will Ignore komekn if you were to see him pass by you tomorrow and somehow you find out he is the one? No. Rather, you introduce yourself to him and hug one another. This life na small thing. Nacho dey him house dey lounge (or on training ground working hard to succeed). He no send anybody to quarrel or insult on his behalf na.

It's good that we are calling out Komekn on his continuous inconsistencies and misrepresentations. But please, lets do so courteously. I am happy that Nacho seems to have found his groove and love for the game and I hope he continues this way.

However, enough of all this insults. No one here is perfect but we can all retrace our steps when we err in our words.

I think Victor Osimhen can play in Manchester united. Hey Victor fans lets go to Manu page and presurize them. The need a center forward. I hope they get him instead of Halland (that boy from Norway).
Manu strikers are at worst average and at best inconsistent.

Osimhen will shine in manu i swear
Don't try it

Do you think the English will bench Rashford for him because we naija fans like him?

Absolutely not. He is better than Rashford based on current form but sentiments no go allow them see road. If Neymar leaves for Barca and Cavani leaves for China or America, I see Osimhen in PSG next year

Nigeria, under coach Gernot Rohr, boast of the finest attacking options on the continent at the moment, according to Villarreal winger Samuel Chukwueze.

The Super Eagles are currently ranked 31st in the world and third in Africa behind Senegal and Tunisia with Algeria, who defeated Nigeria at the semifinals of the 2019 AFCON a further spot behind in fourth.

Despite Liverpool’s Sadio Mane spearheading the Teranga Lions’ attack and Manchester City’s Riyad Mahrez being the most celebrated of the Desert Warriors forwards, Samuel Chukwueze is convinced that Africa’s finest attack is Nigeria’s.

Victor Osimhen, Samuel Kalu, Moses Simon, Samuel Chukwueze and Alex Iwobi are presently Gernot Rohr’s most preferred options for his four forward positions with all five players young, fast and starring for respectable sides in Europe. Not forgetting captain Ahmed Musa whose return from an injury setback offers the Super Eagles an experienced performer upfront.

The combination of all these factors, Chukwueze believes, should drive real fear into other African teams who face Nigeria any time soon.

“The future is very bright (for the Super Eagles attack) and I am happy to play alongside them,” Chukwueze told Sports Vanguard as monitored by Soccernet.ng about playing together with Osimhen, Kalu, and Moses.

“Not only for the national team, when you go to their clubs you see that they are also doing very well.

“Osimhen has been on fire since the season began and Simon scored a hat-trick the other weekend. Kalu has also been scoring while Ahmed Musa just back from injury is doing well also.

“We have very good and dangerous attack, I would say the best attack right now in Africa.”

Really happy for KC. After a lot of on field off field disappointments I'm glad he has started to show the kind of form that attracted him to the Man city hierarchy. Still needs game time and consistent quality performances before a return to the Super Eagles is suggested but based on yesterday's display he's not far off. Yes like Tbaba said he should perish the thought of going to Turkey at least for now. he has shown he can still cut it in the EPL hopefully this busy xmas schedule will see him get good game time to further cement his place in Brendan Rodgers team.

I also agree with what one poster said that the way it's going Ndidi might be in the running to be named Leicester city's player of the season. pray he continues to stay fit and in form
If Vardy continues to score like this and finishes as EPL's top scorer and LFC makes the top four, Vardy would be voted player of the season. Why:

1 People rate goals more. Tackles, positioning, breaking up play is undervalued

2 He is English. Yes, Vardy is English
