you aren't wrong my brother Victor himself mentioned ighalo as one of the players he looked up to while growing up so it possible he learned something from him during their time at afcon as ekong mentioned it in one of is video that ighalo use to tell victor he should keep working hard his time being the first choice striker will come and that was at 2019 afcon, but most people don't know this but will be happy to paint ighalo bad

Make we hear word oga, some of us keenly follow these players before they come to lime light. Osimhen has always been this physical and that was why he was always getting injured both in Germany and later in Belgium. He has never been a timid forward. By the way, Ighalo has never been known as a pacy daring physical forward. When Ighalo enjoyed his little purple patch, it was Troy Deeney doing the dirty job for him. No sentiments

Joebie:
Someone should please tell me. Those who have been following Osimhen's developement. Has Victor always been this type of physical player who brings a lot to the team even when he does not score? Look at his time in Wolfsburg and Belgium. Something tells me something just clicked in him when he understudied Ighalo. Or maybe I am wrong.

You are wrong, though one can never rule out that he learnt a thing or two from him which is rightly so, as his predecessor but Osimhen has always been this physical and mobile. I can recall his games for our youth sides even when he was neither a super eagle nor was ighalo an integral member of our squad. I remember the rescue mission against Lybia at the U23s, I still remember vividly his one on one physical battle with hard tackling Mali’s Abdul Karim Dante(adjudged the most physical player of the 2015 World Cup). Despite osimhen’s thin frame, he owned Dante in that final and came out with a goal and some great efforts that ended up on target. That final alone made me make up my mind on the boy.

He who gets into an argument with thegoodjoe must be ready to finish it .. The man can argue ehn

Whenever I see a blue ink, lately also, any moniker starting with Zuchy... na scrolling.

It is actually insulting to the likes osimehn and Ndidi when their national team coach downplays his players by saying, that they don’t have players in the mould of a Salah and mane. By voicing such derogatory comments, you’re disrespecting your own superstars “osimehn and Ndidi” and also motivating your direct opponents/Rival. Rohr is lucky that he is dealing with an incompetent FA because some of his comments are terminable offenses at bigger club. Can you imagine Barcelona coach saying that Barcelona don’t have a good coach like Real Madrid. For example, 1 v 1 Algeria didn’t had the strongest squad at the last ANC, but they won it despite Senegal and Ivory Coast having a stronger squad on paper. It was simply down to their coach motivation and believe. He was saying from the on set, that Algeria are aspiring to win the nations cup and look at what happened

12large1:
If I was super eagles superstars like osimehn and Ndidi, anytime Rohr downplay them to their direct rival, I would reciprocate similar behavior.
For example
Interviewer: Congratulations osimehn on your hat trick vs senegal
Osimehn: Yes, thank you… our coach might not be as good as Senegal coach, but the players collectively believed in each other and assisted me to score important goals…. Let Rohr take a dose of his own medicine.

Man you dropping hits back to back, lately.

If you could resist being uncouth unnecessarily, you one of those whose takes are interesting to read on this thread. Nwanne jisie ike.

No! we don't over rate him neither do we rate him as highly as foreigners do him. Osimhen brings much more to the party than just goals, and this is what sets him apart. There are strikers and there are strikers

Dude is going through a lot...He's been racially abused twice in a row

Did he score?

charlesemeka85:
I believe the reason many here don’t count sadiq as worthy enough for a chance in the current super eagles set up is because he is playing in the Spanish 2nd tier. My advise to them is to make out time one of the weekends to stream Almeria games to see him play

Sadiq umar I bet you guys will shock a lot when he makes the leap to the Spanish top flight and that will happen soon

I hardly hype players here but whenever I do there is something special about that player in particular

I agreed with everything you said but at the emboldened can you clarify the special things about Aribo?

Anguissa is that player that gives you both sweet and bitter taste. He is always so sweet on the ball until he kills a promising attack dilly darling unnecessarily

andrewbaba44:
Onuachu dropped for 2 people ,Na so you take no rate onuachu ?

Onuachu was at the last team with awoniyi so why do you suddenly want him out of the team

Onuachu dropped for awoniyi ? I can accept that

Sadiq ? Hell No

Ok

Lol our Warri ogogoro drinking NFF chairman and clueless coach would rather ask for a spent force who was never exceptional in his glory days.



By the way, I will reiterate; it is about time Onuachu was dropped for Taiwo and Sadiq to be weighed to see if any of the two would do better

Did you know that the number of African based players that have won the AFCON far out- numbers the number of European based players that have won it. It is not really where you play but how you play and your experience.

Then, it does not matter where Amoo plays, abi no be so?

No be u dey here dey shout say Amoo dey backwater league?

Bros who even told you we against Ighalo Bkus of his league? We don't want him Bkus his efforts are below par, his profligacies are well documented and he is so limited.

zuchyblink:
Playing in Sweden is not primarily the problem but playing in Sweden as a learner is the problem. A Victor Moses playing in Sweden is not the same as an Amoo playing in Sweden. Because Victor Moses has played for years in
big leagues while Amoo is still learning from a small league. Amoo is a dog in the city while Ighalo is a lion in the jungle. I am not in anyway against Amoo but we must Allow our young lads to develop especially those playing in back water leagues

All these Rigmaroles untop simple question abi no be you bring up north African players and their Arabian gulf league exploits again? North African players, them conquer Europe before going to Saudi like Ighalo? If no, then why downplay Amoo's Swedish exploits with the lame point that he hasn't conquered a big league, abi Saudi league way your north african trojans dey troop in better pass Swedish league?

zuchyblink:
For the guys promoting Amoo,playing in an amateur league like the Swedish league is different from playing and competing with experienced and exposed players from major European and African leagues

I'm pro Senegal and CIV, but my boys "EOC" in attack will fry their defenses. Ighalo with his defensive and ABF style of attack can never.

The EOC epitomizes pace, guile, dribbles and precision. Ighalo can never offer any of those

zuchyblink:
They mostly play in the middle east and have done better than our over-rated National teams in West Africa

Are those North African players also in the middle east as teachers just like Ighalo? Abi dem dey there as learners just as Amoo dey Sweden as a learner?


Hey! I would rather learn soccer in Sweden than Saudi

zuchyblink:
From your question it shows your level in sports analysis. Ighalo played in Spain,Italy, England for so many years,he is not in Saudi as as a learner but as a teacher. Ighalo has seen it all. North African teams are the greatest in Africa more than 80% of their players plays in the middle east

Are those North African players also in the middle east as teachers just like Ighalo? Abi den dey there as learners just as Amoo dey Sweden as a learner?


Hey! I would rather learn soccer in Sweden than Saudi

andrewbaba44:
Playing ahead of which Theo Hernanez? Better stop lying ,same Theo Hernandez that is making the French team and not the guy ?

The guy is not even half of the level of Theo Hernandez

Please stop disrespecting Theo Hernandez to praise your Senegalese average player

Bia Oliseh, pay attention to details, you no be small pikin again. The post you quoted read that "in recent times" which means "recently" Ballo-Toure has been preferred ahead of Theo Hernandez a world class left back. Now, check AC Milan last three or four matches to see if I was exaggerating or not. No be everything be argument.

andrewbaba44:
Bia you are allowed to have chuks as your boy only

Las las e be like Na senegalese or Ivorian wife you need to marry

About Senegalese babes, those girls dey fine but nothing beats my Igbo queens.

Make una permit me to derail small. For the past 2weeks, I have been here in the FCT, and I have got something great that might interest some of us. Nothing beats investing in landed properties(real estate). These below and more are my latest properties on sale in Abuja, so you can mail me if you are interested or if you know anyone interested. There are duplexes too in Federal Housing. Thanks

Aina issue is one of my cross with Rohr...Aina on the left is better than Zaidu and Collins...imagine Ebuehi not getting invitation.

Ebuehi to the right while Aina to the left.

Kpom!

The pressure finally paid off. Nice one Danjuma

Boulaye Dia returns from injury with a bang!

Chuk’s involvement in the build up was orgasmic.

My boys are balling

Chukz dun mature, he now varies his game with ease, no longer one directional and aimless dribbles. Omo see passes

Chuwueze dun mature finally. What a player, that would have been a goal of the season contender

Zambo Anguissa is a very big upgrade on Bakayoko

AndSunGorilla:
No be you say Aina and Sanusi dey ball, are they playing a friendly game together?

Lol bro this is not weekend ooo

AndSunGorilla:
How are u able to watch 2 matches at the same time?

Which two matches?

fabyom:
Then what are you watching if you my assessment is bias? Singo wan killam or not?

Bros no one can find it easy against Singo, that boy na Trojan, I have been following his development right from 2018 when he was part of CIV U20 squad

Aina isn’t a natural left back but he is more intelligent and performs better in that position than our LBs(both Zaidu and Collins)

fabyom:
Please tune in to Ac Milan vs Torino to see Aina's class! Aina na baller abeg not one over-hyped player that needed the support of two players to mark ordinary Singo! Imagine what Ejuke/Chuz will use do to him!

Mind you, no be only you dey watch this match oo. Easy with this your biased assessment just bkus of patriotism

fabyom:
lol inlaw! Okay, he is the greatest left-back the world has ever seen yet ordinary Singo wan Killam!

Lol the same Singo you all were under rating the day I made mention of him here last season? I told you all he was better than all our right backs but Supernerd no gree, now una eyes dun open vaaaaaaa!!!

Kog45:
Haha Chriskel una no go kill person for this thread.

My brother, a guy that has been playing ahead of Teo Hernandez in recent time is who Fabyom is trynna downplay his efforts. Aswear this one na jealousy oo

Kog45:
That poor boy Tomori would have settled our CB issue...he is the only FB that really pained me for choosing England over Nigeria.

Tomori na the only player wey e pain me when he snub us.

Yea my brother. That boy is crap, no wonder he is a starter for lowly AC Milan while world class Jamil Collins plays for German giants Paderborn, and Zaidu Porto bench

fabyom:
Aina and Sanusi having a good game! That Senegalese guy playing left-back for AC Milan, lacks pace and cannot tackle, I don't understand the hype around him! Tomori is a monster defender!
