he plays for guimaraes in the Portuguese top flight and nothing special about him but still a rookie so what’s the fuss about him for?

You see the number of top clubs justling for his signature? How many has ever asked for the Siggy of Omeruo, Ekong, Awaziem, Balogun et al?

andrewbaba44:
And mumin is playing at the best club in Portugal

At least you sabi football small pass the other noise maker. Oya who are the best CBs in the Portuguese league?

andrewbaba44:
Ekong is better than djiku

Salisu ahead of balogun ,not really sure about amartey

Championship ajayi is better than that Mumin guy

Performance wise no Ghanaian CB is even playing what akpoguma is playing in Europe

Abeg Na only midfield Ghana get options pass us .

CB LB RB Wingers strikers we kill those people

Even poor Maduka better pass their GK from the English league one

If Ajayi was half as good as Mumin, he wouldn't be rotting in the championship

charlesemeka85:
who be mimin?

Amartey wey Dey chop bench for leicester? Oga na only salisu I see for this ur mentions

Do you have any centre back better than that Amartey wey dey chop bench for Leicester?

Lol it is obvious you no sabi pass the EpL or Manchester United. Google Khalid Abdul Mumin, then come back to talk

charlesemeka85:
even great Rufai and other goal minders out there hv made costly mistakes in the past. No be me choose maduka to be first choose so for eguavoen and his crew to pick him out of the 4 in camp as our number one implies he is class above others in training

Nwakali Dey join Burgos fc soon

Agu not Eguavoen chose him. It was still the paddy trend from Rohr's era, so suuum there!

Maduka cost us 2021 AfCon medal it is on record

13large:
Please, on current form, list their center backs that’s ranked or better than ours? Even our uninvited player “akpoguma” is still ranked better than Ghana present CB

No way Akpoguma is ranked ahead of Mumin, Salisu or Amartey

charlesemeka85:
The paddy paddy matter which is normal with our local coaches make nwakali see game time for the just concluded afcon pass a whole frank the tank

Yes oo, just as Maduka was busy applying powder for face when dem score am

andrewbaba44:
Ghana center back options please .

I will place Djiku same place as Omeruo and Ekong, I would place Amarteh and Salisu ahead of Balogun. I would take Khalid Abdul Mumin ahead Awaziem.

We have a more talented and better team than Ghana but that isn’t enough. Our coach has to motivate his players, select a balanced team selection, formation, adequate substitution and mentally believe that we can defeat Ghana. It is why I said that, if we don’t qualify ahead of Ghana (this time) whoever our coach is must be Terminated. Losing to Tunisia 2nd eleven was an eye opener and unacceptable

This is not entirely true. Ghana has better Centre Back options than Nigeria, they also have a better midfield combo than Nigeria. We only edge them upfront

andrewbaba44:


Tomori and Tammy are doing well sha

Yes I know but I don't see them as Nigerians anymore. Once you get capped, that emotion and hope automatically dies in me, and you become a total stranger to me.

andrewbaba44:
No wahala

Even our Player with French descent is still not above average

It’s well

I want him and Eze capped ASAP by England and Algeria, make I put them where I put Tammy and Tomori

Errrm those of you wey no wan let us rest over Michael Olise, According to Mr Mowiz the boy say SE no reach, say his eyes dey for either Algeria or France, say make nobody ever mention his name in the same sentence as Nigeria again

jihday:
nobody’s touching Lloris glove till he retire sha

Sentiments

andrewbaba44:
Before the howler wasn’t he the first choice ?

Howler or no howler Mendy was likely to bench him after that afcon

So it was 2020 in your village when Egypt hosted the afcon ba ?

I never knew Enugu was one year ahead of Lagos state

Lol the problem with you is comprehension. When was the howler and when did Mendy's major growth start?

Gomis's starting bet for Senegal was short lived because it started and ended in 2019 where he nailed his own coffin against Algeria. Prior and post 2019, Ndiaye and Mendy respectively manned the posts.

You wan make I explain am to you like you still in kindergarten?

charlesemeka85:
i swear down even the world cup proper we need our best if the team qualifies

For that wing - Moses Simon, Emma Dennis, Ademola Lookman, Sam Chuks and maybe Ejuke/Amoo.

We need our bests in every important match or tourney.

13large:
It’s like we’re used to obvious incompetency at our country and failing to accept responsibility instead of blaming others. Can you imagine some people suggesting that Dennis (our best player at Epl this season) shouldn’t be invited to an all important WCQ game vs our arch-rival because his Fa failed to submit his name to his club at the due time?? Like, some of the things that people convey here is just blatant ignorant

Only an ignoramus would call for the ommission of Dennis's name. We need to prosecute those matches with our best players.

andrewbaba44:
Na honest question I ask you ooo broda

Wasn’t Gomis the one that keep at the afcon at Egypt ?

Mendy of Rennes 2020 will never start for France .

Where did the howler against Algeria take place? In Kabul Afghanistan? And when was that? No be before 2020?

andrewbaba44:
When did mendy started benching Alfred Gomis at Senegal ?

I wan check something

Stop going off tangent. When did Gomis start keeping for Senegal sef abi you forgot Ndiaye?

I was talking about Mendy's rise that started in 2020 and you are talking about Gomis that was dropped after his howler against Algeria.

Mendy of Rennes na 2020 oga, so before that season, anybody could have started for Senegal. Funny enough, Gomis of SPAL wasn't even considered good enough hence Ndiaye of Horoya was the starter in Russia 2018.

In a nutshell, Mendy has been good enough for the French team since 2020. Also, for the past 1.5years, he has been good enough to start for France if he had played for the French team.

andrewbaba44:
At Rennes he won’t start but maybe be their 3rd choice , e get why

Was Areola starting, or did I ever say he would start? He was better than Areola, and would make the team ahead of Areola, for fvcks sake he was the best goalkeeper in the ligue1 that year

andrewbaba44:
He won’t sir

He was there in their league and they don’t use to call him up

I was specific. I said Mendy of Rennes "IF HE WAS NOT ALREADY WITH SENEGAL", he would be called because he was better than Areola a bench warmer at PSG

andrewbaba44:
Bouna sarr is not better than any England available LB so no go there ,this one Na gaffe

Diallo will make the bench ,I hate praising England but I have to say this that he won’t start ,he is not even a first choice CB at psg

France have better players and talent than England so you are expected to get better Senegalese than Nigerian from there

Now ask yourself how many Nigerian do we have in the English first team apart from saka ,so which better players you Dey expect Us to get

Mention a world class player with a Nigerian descent that has played for England?

Why do you keep repeating same mistake? How is Bouna Sarr a left back?

Who will bench Diallo!

We get craps from England yet them still dey form wetin I no know

chrisooblog:
Mane as well. Apart from Mbappe and Benzema (maybe) no one else in the French forward line is better than Sadio.

Mane isn't FrancoSenegalese

andrewbaba44:
I was talking about how Koulibally was good enough to make the team for years and will make many European teams that’s why I didn’t mention Mendy .

As of now only Koulibally and Mendy will get into the French team .

Even Mendy of Rennes would have made that French team 3years ago if he hadn't made his Senegalese debut yet. He was better than Alphonse Areola

andrewbaba44:
Mendy will only make the French team as if now .

He has been in their league when they do overlook him for veteran like Mandanda

Were we talking about yesteryears or current event? Oga, Mendy of Chelsea will bench everything France has to offer

andrewbaba44:
You suppose know say I forget to reason GK and not that I was just lying

After Mendy as GK and Koulibally who go start for France ? Nobody ,and Mendy good enough for France was only recently

So I am right bro

Most of the players Senegal get from France are all so good that they would have great international careers with English national team. Fact!

Diallo would start for England, Bouna would always make the team, Balo Toure would make the team/start, Koulibaly sure starter, Mendy sure starter, Pape Gueye would always make the team/start.

What we get from England is way too inferior to what Senegal get from France

caprikon:
A keeper like Mendy would at least make the bench for Les blues. Though France is loaded with wingers Mahrez could still have a decent international career if he turned out for France.

I agree with the points you raised but France is loaded with quality players at the moment so these guys are up against very good players and have to switch early.

In our case , English rejects still do plenty shakara for us.... Victor Moses had quality but highly questionable commitment.

Who wan bench Mendy for France team abeg? Maignan or Lhoris?

andrewbaba44:
Abdou diallo ,Bouna sarr can’t cut it at France

Koulibally really wanted to play for Senegal from day 1 ,he never considered playing for France ,dude will easily start at all national team in Europe

So it’s not just English born players as it’s everywhere apart from very few who where different ,if mbappe was an average player he will be playing for Cameroon,same with umtiti

Pogba playing for France while his brother playing for guinea should tell you a lot that African teams will always be second option ,e no shock una say Godfrey kondogbia later played for the central African republic After winning 7 caps for France .

As it is Koulibally is the only eligible French player that will make the French team from Senegal

This is not entirely true. It was Kara Mbodji that made Koulibaly play for Senegal when Kalidou was a nobody. After playing for their U20s, he was overlooked by the French youth system, then he joined Genk where he met and formed a CB partnership with Mbodji. Mbodji seized the opportunity to convince him that he stood a better chance with Senegal, and the rest became history. France started to taking notice when he became good at Napoli without even knowing that he had already been capped by Senegal.

You also lied where you said Koulibaly was the only FrancoSenegalese that can make the French team. Oga, Mendy will bench every French goalkeeper alive today.

caprikon:
Really admire the quality of the French born players in the teranga lions.

English born players of Nigerian descent see us as a fall back option if they can't cut it with the three lions.

Quality, burning desire and dedication. From the look on the faces of Diallo and Nampalis Mendy, you could see they were ready to die for the flag. I also saw that in Aina though

andrewbaba44:
After playing 10 seasons at the French league he didn’t ever make a market value of 10 million euros ,that should tell you alot

Okay

andrewbaba44:
I disagree about Bouna sarr .

Na so

andrewbaba44:
Bouna sarr plays for Bayern doesn’t make him a good player ,that guy is not a good LB

Some of their wingers aren’t better than ours also

Bouna Sarr of both Marseille, Bayern and the just concluded AfCon is better than everything we have at right back. Fode Balo Toure of both Monaco and AC Milan is better than everything we gave at left back.

By the way, who told you Bouna Sarr was a left back?

andrewbaba44:
I disagree

Some Senegalese player won’t make our team also

Their strikers and some of their wingers won’t make our team

Their right back plays at the French division 2 ,if dem call division 2 French league player with the options wey we get for RB una go para

Mendy ,infact all their GKs are better than anything we have

Koulibally ,diallo ,gana gueye ,mane ,kouyate ,Na these ones go start for eagles

You are wrong. Their first choice right back plays for Bayern while their first choice left back plays for AC Milan. Aliu Ciss was used because of the injury Balo Toure sustained.

Only Ndidi and Osimhen will start for Senegal in their preferred formation
