I have heard of him, he's was of the 2020 NBA draft with 4 or 5 other players of Nigerian origin like Onyeka Okongwu,Zeke Nnaji and co.

BascoVanVeli:
I have already said we should break away from CAF if west African countries exit CAF the organization will die. Really Pinnick should take that idea to the next CAF meeting and put an end to theregional qualifying nonsense at the youth level.

BTW have u heard of Isaac Okoro on the Cleveland Cavs. Boy looks special

Kelechi Nwakali's Sofascore match stats.

Nwakali's loan move to Alcorcorn might be blessing in disguise because he is getting the necessary game time to remain sharp and match fit and also play his normal game without the pressure of fighting for survival in La Liga with Huesca. He's good performances with Alcorcon might should enable him be a starter in the Huesca team, that's if Huesca survives the drop.

TheSuperNerd:
I am just happy for him. Those huge potentials could yet be realised finally. He should keep it going knowing that folks are watching. With time, he will get the recognition his recent showings deserve. He just has to keep it going. Lad is doing very very well.

If Huesca survives relegation from La Liga, then probably Nwakali could be installed as a starter in their midfield as he is clearly bossing La Liga Smartbank despite featuring for one of the lowly rated sides in the Spanish tiers. A fine rebirth he is having. Like Kelechi (Iheanacho), Like Kelechi (Nwakali).

Wow! I hope he becomes consistent with this level of performance.

TheSuperNerd:
Kelechi Nwakali has just scored a world class Freekick!!!

What a Midfield performance topped by a goal that coukd become the winner!!! Wow

I dey tell una something.... Una no wan hear?!!!

Me too.

ChrisKels:
I just hope Huesca survives the drop and Nwakali rejoins them in the La liga, then, I will be taking another good look at him for that position.

Me too.

maidaboi:
i am excited lets hope he continue scoring from here because a goal scoring ejuke is a most have

Chidera Ejuke scores for CSKA Moscow

Term Moffi too

andrewbaba44:
Iheanacho simmy onuachu osimhen all scored

E sweet

Iheanacho with a brace

Osimhen scores

Iheanacho scores

Terem Moffi scores for Lorient, this is his 9th Ligue 1 goal and his 10th goal in all competition for Lorient this season.

Most of Kessie's goals are penalty kicks

12large1:
you're making no sense at all Fam absolutely no sense. When selecting a combined 11, you're selecting the best possible players among everyone not individually. For example, if there's a midfield options of Ndidi aribo iwobi kessie seri and a coach ask you to select the best 3, you don't compare the best 2 among the list for a position, instead you select the best possible 3 midfielders in the entire list.

Even our king ndidi might not be overall better than kessie or his marginally better. A CDM that has 9 league goals in the top 3 league in the world common. Individually their players are rated higher than us but collectively Nigeria will beat this present ivory coast. (My opinion) our headache now are Senegal and Algeria

I rate Uchenna Kanu ahead of Rashidat Ajibade

TheSuperNerd:
Uchenna Kanu, Anam Imo, Monday Gift, Chinaza Uchendu, Chiamaka Nnadozie (GK), Chidinma Okeke, and a few more have been added to the squad. Our squad is a mix of the old guard and the new.

The NFF top brass still see Musa of 2021 as the same Musa of 2018, they don't understand that 3 years in football is a very long time.

ChrisKels:
Why not extend same to Musa to also help him rediscover his mojo, or has Musa been performing since his 2018 glories?

One Igbo language expert complained about it being wrong.

ChrisKels:
When is Iheanacho taking out the dot under that "I"? That is a very wrong way to spell his name, I have been saying this since the first day he appeared in that shirt

Thank God someone else noticed it, Iheanacho was often drifting to his wing. The best formations for the Super Eagles with this current set of players are 4-5-1 or 4-3-3.

Tolulopefinest:
Chukwueze on his day is our best winger.
That 442 seems to be restricting him, not only him but the whole team

Chriskels is back! My man!!

ChrisKels:
Be reeling out names upon names, las las na white Onigbinde still be their head coach. Make Senegal, Algeria, Morocco, Mali, Ivory Coast or Zaire catch this team with Rohr as the coach, our body go hear am

I would pick Osimhen, Iheanacho and Moffi.

TheSuperNerd:
In the last Super Eagles list for our Competitive fixtures vs Sierra Leone, we had Osimhen, Iheanacho and Dennis Bonaventure named as the CFs. Onuachu later joined them as a late call up replacement for Simon Moses who was named to the original list before Injury ruled him out.

That left us with Four CF options although Dennis can also play from the wings.


Also, In the last Super Eagles list pre-AfconQ double header with Sierra Leone, we had Iheanacho, Onuachu and Dessers as the Centre forward options for the Algeria and Tunisia friendlies.



Now, You are Gernot Rohr and you have to pick three strikers from among these lots for the March games. Who would make it to your list?


- Terem Moffi (Ligue 1)
- Simy Nwankwo (Serie A)
- Kelechi Iheanacho (EPL)
- Paul Onuachu (Belgian Jupiler Pro)
- Victor Osimhen (Serie A)


I hope you can see that dropping any of them will be tough based on recent forms and happenings.

For Osimhen, it's not even a question of form but the fact that he is Rohr's first choice CF/ST. And he scored yesterday on his return from the head trauma scare which will be great news for the coaching crew.

So you have the floor... Imagine being in the shoes of Rohr and make your choice. It will be respected.

Osimhen scores

Tereem Moffi scores for Lorient, sorry the goal was cancelled by VAR.

Iheanacho scores for Leicester

Terem Moffi starts for Lorient

He was earlier credited with an assist,the assist has been cancelled.

Tolulopefinest:
He didn't assist any of the goals sir.

Emmanuel Dennis with an assist in his first match for his new club FC Koln in the German Bundesliga. He's on loan at the club for the rest of the season. His assist was later cancelled.

Rohr should call him up during the AFCON March qualifiers. The boy is good.

TheSuperNerd:
Came in on 60mins.... With his side, 2-1 down. His teammate Yoanne Wissa bagged the Equaliser, 20 mins later.

But it was Moffi who had the final word! His goal driving the dagger into the Billionaire hearts of Paris. Sending their swagger crashing to the ground.

That goal is Moffi's 6th League goal in 15 league games (10 starts).


It was also his 5th goal in his last five games.

The fifth consecutive league game in which Moffi is scoring!

He's on a crazily consistent run of goals rush. Such form is evil.

Terem Moffi's goal is his sixth Ligue 1 goal of the season and his 5th consecutive goal in 5 Ligue 1 appearances.

Terem Moffi scores at home against PSG, he scores in his biggest game of his career, he was a 60th minute substitute.

Onuachu is performing very good in Genk, I still prefer Simy to him, Rohr should leave both of them out of the March qualifiers. Either Terem Moffi and Taiwo Awoniyi should be called up, he should even call up the both them if he wants. I see Moffi becoming the number 2 striker of the Super Eagles in years to come.

TheSuperNerd:
Rohr should leave out a guy that is responsible for 8 of our last 11 goals in our last 6 games?

Our last six games:

1. AfconQ: Nigeria 2-1 Benin - Osimhen scored a goal (Pen). Other goal by Kalu.

2. AfconQ: Lesotho 2-4 Nigeria - Osimhen with 2 goals + 2 assists

3. Friendly: Algeria 1-0 Nigeria - Osimhen not available.

4. Friendly: Nigeria 1-1 Tunisia - Iheanacho scored. Osimhen not available.

5. AfconQ: Nigeria 4-4 S/Leone - Osimhen with 1 goal + 2 assists before his injury which kept him out and partly led to us collapsing that day.

6. AfconQ: S/Leone 0-0 Nigeria - Osimhen not available.

Summary:

✔️Goals scored: 11
✔️Highest Goals Involvement: Osimhen with 8 (4 goals + 4 assists)


As long as Osimhen is available and fit... Please we cannot afford to leave him out especially not against Benin Republic away.

Note: I am not saying the others aren't good enough to step in but it's always best to have your finest weapons if they are indeed available. Onuachu may be our highest goals banger in Europe but truthfully Osimhen remains the Best #9 we have.

Rohr should call him asap

TheSuperNerd:
Terem Moffi Stats in Ligue 1

Yesterday, Teremas Igboras Moffi scored for the fourth straight matchday in Ligue 1.

He now sits on 5 goals in 10 starts in his first season in a top 5 league.

For Onyekuru to excel as a striker he needs to bulk up at least to the level of Aguero, he's too lightweight be a striker.

TheLoneCitizen:
I remember reporting exclusively last year that Galatasaray will sign Onyekuru not as a winger but as a striker.

http://forestgist.com/monaco-coach-niko-kovac-as-long-as-i-am-onyekuru-wont-be-able-to-play-in-monaco/

They just sold Mbaye Diagne, their first choice striker and top scorer to West Brom. The other strikers on the team are Falcao and Babel whose contracts expire soon.

Just like Arsene Weneger did to Thierry Henry, we might have ourselves another winger-cum-striker called Henry.

Terem Moffi scores for Lorient against AS Monaco in French Ligue 1, this is his third goal in the French Ligue 1.
