ovie is a not a good set piece take only eze is
stop overhyping the dude

Where did you read "Ovie is good with set pieces"?

Through the repatriation of the almajiris, the north has succeeded in spreading the virus through the length and breadth of the north

Arabiandude:
I thought Ovie doesn't have weaknesses according to emeka and because of how he was praising him? If his weaknesses are tackling, crossing and finishing, what then do we need him for?

Ovie has all the strengths reminiscent of a good player in his primary position (the CM), hence judging him by those weaknesses is unfounded, though it would do him good to improve on his tackling and finishing.

As a CM, his dribbling is very strong, his passing is strong, his long shots are strong, his through balls are strong and his defensive contributions are strong. These are the primary qualities needed in a good CM, others are secondary, though, they(the secondary qualities) make a few players stand out among equal.




That said, I am glad we have bagged him, but what the team needs the most is a good AM in the mould of Eze who possesses wicked strengths such as;

Dribbling - (very strong)

Taking of set pieces - (very strong), the super eagles are in dire need of this

Crossing, long shots, retaining possession - all strong

Philosopher1979:
Yes it is the portugues and futch srcond division are allright for a teenager that he was then. This boy's case will be like that of ighalo and he will prove everybody wrong.
You dont give up on a player at 22. It is too early.
He has the potential to be like kevin de bruyne or bruno fernandes. He will be a fine centeal midfielder/playmaker.
Watch out fir him when the league resumes. In fact huesca might gain promotion to la liga

Are u sure u know who u quoted? Dude I am the one defending him here, saying he would come good Bkus he has finally made the right move, I was the one who said I haven't given up on him. Oboy go wash ur face

zoboizee:
@Chriskels.
About K. Nwakali, you are not telling the truth. He played professionally in the Netherlands & Portugal. Stop spreading falsehood.

So those stints with Porto B and Maastritch at the Estdivisie are what u term professional football?

andrewbaba44:
Nwakali ?

Gbam!!

Here is one of the major reasons his elder bro pushed for his transfer to Arsenal, knowing full well that the move wouldn't bode well for his career, considering the red tape rule.


K Nwakali's house even though he hasn't kicked a ball in anger, professionally. Tells more about his family's priority

Subzero047:
He has phenomenal talent, imagine being MVP in an U17 side featuring Chukwueze and Osimhen

Trust me, that boy would come good. He is in the right place now

Arabiandude:
Bros make una allow Nwakali rest in peace or pieces na. He is playing for huesca and in 10years from now maybe he will make it to the top.
That Nwakali family have foundational spiritual problem and the earlier they recognize and act towards such, the better for family.
Just imagine, Chidiebere and Nwakali, 2 exceptional midfielders and nothing to write home for the both of them.

There is nothing spiritual about their challenges, rather the young boys have been grossly exploited, especially by their oldest bro, Allwell Nwakali who doubles as their advisor. Dude was only after the money he'd make from their sells, he cared less about their respective careers. Imagine the efulefu advised his younger brothers to go to England Bkus of money, after which he(Allwell) went to their village to get a chieftaincy title from the proceeds of their transfers, at his very young age. Tueh

AllforJesus7:
With our midfield gradually taking shape now is there anyone still craving for the return of Nwakali?

I haven't given up on him, I believe Huesca presents a great platform for him to relaunch his career, I just pray they get promoted

edi287:
Exactly. One of the German boys(Udokhai preferably) will give us that or Awaziem moves to CB.
Awaziem - Ekong/Omeruo looks good on paper. Ekong is turning into a leader at the back.

Ball playing isn't one of Uduokhai's strengths. If u want a ball playing center back, call on no other than Tosin Adarabioyo, that is his basic strength

Clementoke:
Is Uduokhai not an exception to this?
Dude can play centre back, left back, defensive midfield position.
However, he has lost form in recent times.

Actually Uduokhai is just there, nothing really special, bkus he has no significant strength, but, he is doing his best. And...yea he isnt a ball playing center back

Subzero047:
Ozorwafor is a decent ball player

I think I was a bit harsh on Ozornwafor, though my inference was informed by the fact that he hasn't proven nothing so far, professionally. But judging by what he showed at the U20 tourney and his meager stint with the Nzogbu boys of ala Aba, I would tag him a prospect

Arabiandude:
Left footed ball playing CB like Laporte and Lenglet. You have any in mind?

Such player does not exist for now, not even prospects, both local and foreign. Not Torunarigha, not Uduokhai and not Ozornwafor

komekn:
I would not jump to that very hasty conclusion so quickly.

You use the term all round, maybe l am misconstrued in my reading but that means in every department essentially.

The only two attributes that Awaziem MAY HAVE BETTER than Adarabioyo and it's not by any means certain is football intelligence and Technicality.

However, on the following Adarabioyo will floor him; Speed, Strength, Physicality, Aerial Dominance and Aggression.

It's difficult to measure technical ability and football intelligence when you are playing do or die , kick and rush football in the English Championship for Blackburn.

How well will Adarabioyo do in Leganese in La Liga. I don't know ❓ On the other hand how well will Awaziem do as a CB playing for Blackburn? ❓

Dude Awaziem is quite physical and very aggressive, he's got strength really. I wouldn't wanna talk down on Adarabioyo Bkus the ball playing part of his style delights me, but, at present, he isn't as good as Awaziem. I like the two and they are in my fantasy eagles line up come AFCON and Qatar, ceteris paribus

Lalasticlala, Kandiikane, tjskii

andrewbaba44:
Wow ,i just found out moses simon is the highest paid player at nantes, and they are about to sign him permanently

To sell to a bigger club, either Lyon or Rennes

123jamessmith:
please what is the latest news on lookman. hope the switch is still ongoing. i love to see that guy play for super eagles. hopefully we get saka and ebere eze too.

We ain't keen on Lookman, he ain't gonna bring nothing different from what we have already and he isn't better than what we have already in SamKalu, SiMoses, Chiddy Ejuke, DennisBona and HenOnyekuru.

Maduka Okoye �:

"Fortuna (Dusseldorf) is my number one spot but I want to play. I have to get experience in first teams.

"I've discussed with Fortuna: maybe I'll go to the Dutch league on loan to play so I can get premier league experience in the Netherlands."



I hope he gets to join an Eredivisie club this summer, same with Uzoho.

charlesemeka85:
Have seen both play and with no disrespect eze is a huge goal treat buh i will pick ejaria any day any time.

Ejaria even with his lanky frame is a warrior who doesnt shy away from tackles and a far better team player. Also he seem more versatile ie can be deployed from the flanks, as a number 8,10 or his natural position which is the CM position.

Eze is more of a coutinho kind of player with poor work rate

Glad to have Ejaria. Hoping to have Eze nwafor Mbaise join us soon. But bro, Ejaria na learner where Eze dey. Eze is clearly better

charlesemeka85:
awaziem is better physically buh adarabioyo na superb ball playing cb who is ripe for the big stage. He has improved tremendiously

Awaziem is an all round better center back than Adarabioyo.

Arabiandude:
I guess you know Aribo is also as skillful and possesses strength just like Ejaria but Ejaria doesn't score like Aribo...so personally I will pick Aribo for now.

Uzoho
Ehizibue Ekong Balogun Saka
Ndidi
Aribo
Eze
Chukwueze Osimhen Iwobi

The post u quoted read: "A run for his money", in other words, Aribo will be pushed by Ejaria


If I had an Eze, Iwobi would either force him to sit or sit for him, I wouldn't move either of the two to the wing the way u did here, because neither would as effective as Ejuke or Kalu in that left wing.

AIG07:
Ejaria in term of playing style is the closest to Jay Jay.

Imagine looking at your bench and you see in form players like
-Ejaira
-Eze
-Saka
-Iheanacho
-Dessers
-Etebo
-Balogun
-Ebuehi
-Henry

All sitted waiting to be called upon for action! The thing go just de to tori d coach for side line.

Eze is the closest we have got to JJ, and I tell you, he ain't sitting for no one once we have him. Ejaria would give Aribo a run for his money in that CM position, while I wait to see how things turn out for Nwakali at Huesca

Let me stir the river, too bad I came at the wrong time since Southgate ain't online now; Not even the most preposterous and extravagant club in the universe would bid this amount for Tammy.

Osimhen wouldn't make the youth team of English league one clubs

I think it is safe and reasonable to say Osimhen might be the GOAT that the world youth championship (U17) has produced, in the strikers' category.

junnyjake:
Wow!! That's huge. That'd make him the most expensive African player I believe.

If true, I think it'd be an English club.

Dude is a priced asset, and the most beautiful thing about the news(if true) is that no team is gonna shed that amount to keep him on the bench.

Subzero047:
Lille have received an offer of 85 million from an unknown club for Victor Osimhen

A link wouldda made the news juicier

seankafor:
chriskels wont like this

In every disappoint or adversity, I strive to find a positive. Yea I wanted Rohr gone, but since it didnt turn out that way, I will have to take solace in the fact that he has made contacts with some dual nationality players, and it would only make sense, if we allow him complete the moves. If he was relieved of his duties, it could amount to us starting the hunts all over again.

andrewbaba44:
So you still support a Turkish division 2 player to be in the eagles ba ?

He is being both realistic and rational, not supporting or taking sides

junnyjake:
Yeah, he appeared to me in my dreams last night.

Lol craze man.
Happy new month

I really do hope Klopp gives Ejaria an opportunity to stake a claim to a shirt, in the first team next season. Liverpool doesn't boast of the best midfielders, hence, he pretty much stands a chance to wrestle a shirt as a CM or an AM...
