Unfortunately in modern football it's not enough to just sit deep and fefenf. You must very quickly move from defence to attack.

That's what gives you the edge and moves you up the ladder. This is something that Ndidi must learn and improve on. Football is highly competitive if you are not improving you are regressing.

Soon other small boy players will overtake you.

It should be noted with caution nobody really came in for Ndidi. That tell us something. We may hail him all we like but PSG decided to buy a near 30 years ago old DM. Did they not see Ndidi.

Aribo brings defensive battle ready but offensive capacity to the DM position.

Finally Aribo is very hungry if Ndidi is rested it will be good to see how he performs against Ukraine.

My friend stop making noise abeg. it is obvious u know nothing about the player u write of. Aribo doesn't play DM. he only plays CM (primarily) and AM - secondarily

Earthquake1:
Can you point out where I made such statement?

After komekn posted that Aribo would be a competition to Ndidi, u alluded that ,that competition would bring out the best in ndidi, in other words u agreed Aribo was coming in as a DM. that's it below

Earthquake1:
Aribo will bring out the best in Ndidi, Etebo is a DM and Ndidi likes to own the defensive midfield spot

Earthquake1:
Yes Etebo plays primarily as a DM, CM and BtB are just nomenclatures

Earthquake1:
They already have Tim Weah in the same position

Make I dey look them

Tim Weah plays same position as Renato Sanchez? Nwanne biko kedu ihe mmadu mere gi here

charlesemeka85:
why not go get your coaching licence?

u no get d drift bro, only humility180 did.

That boy was the one claiming that Etebo, Ndidi and Aribo were all DMs, so i was marvelled at the level of his half baked knowledge, hence, I asked him why rohr would pack dem all as DMs

Humility017:
yeah...well said.
Ajayi have not really been tried thoroughly as a DM yet for the SE
you know his height also gonna be helpful as a DM....

I don't see Aribo as a good AM, his primary position is the CM role... I rather we opt in for Kingsley Micheal, Dele Bashiru that's if they come good in time to come...and also Ejaria and Eze too...are the only ones that can play the AM role...
iwobi can be used as a perfect sub for the AM role.... since dude don't wanna improve.

I picked those aforementioned players...because they shot very well precisely and with force from outside the box and also pass well to an extent though not like iwobi

Bar Eze, those guys u suggested are CMs too, but can function as AMs. this is quite hard for me to say, but the only recognized AM prospect we have, is that agbaya(baba Ajagun) in Belgium and a super inconsisent Onomah. But we can do without Ajagun if Michael, ejaria, bashiru et al, come good. That said I have my eyes on onomah, I want him in

Earthquake1:
Dude is there anything wrong with you?

lol bro the only thing wrong with me is that Etebo is a DM, Ndidi is a DM and Aribo is coming in as a DM too, to bring out the best in the two DMs he has already

So na only defensive midfielders papi Rohr wan pack for our midfield? lol that would be the height of carpentry

Danielnino00:
Rohr too like DMs ...Na dem they help his conservative style..

Etebo isn't a DM, neither is Aribo. Forget wetin dat boy dey talk, like Andrew rightly said, him no sabi anything, most times he says things outta boredom , not that he really has something to say. The only well defined DM we av is Wilf Ndidi, while others are makeshifts. Aribo is coming in as a CM to partner a DM in Ndidi, Etebo is primarily a CM who can also feature secondarily as an AM, hence I fear this could force iwobi to the wings, with rohr still at the helm.

Humility017:
yeah...competition makes the team better..

I see him as someone who will compete with etebo for the CM role...Ndidi is primarily a DM... the conservative kind..that sits deep to defend...

not until Rohr change the play style to be a full fledged attacking team...Ndidi will keep sitting deep to shed the defenders.....

for now Aribo can compete for the CM role

Here is Humility180 re-echoeing what was said long before now, wey komekn wan twist

Earthquake1:
And you are super dumb

Lol bros na commend I dey commend u nah. Y body dey pepper u over nothing nah? nawa oo. Etebo is a DM, Ndidi is a DM and Rorh is also bringing in Aribo as DM to bring out the best in the two DMs he has already nah. I follow u argue?

Earthquake1:
Yes Etebo plays primarily as a DM, CM and BtB are just nomenclatures

Wow u are a super analyst mate

Danielnino00:
U are expecting him to be used as a DM?

no mind that boy abeg

komekn:
When l said that he will compete with Ndidi particularly as he bring more offensively speaking. People went up in arms saying I am denigrating our world class Ndidi.

Competition makes the team better.

Enough with the lies, people didn't go up because u were denigrating ndidi, though u are always guilty of denigrating our homegrown talents, people rather made their feelings known that they wanted aribo as a CM to compliment Ndidi to make our midfield stronger. Dey echoed that they would not like the idea of one sitting for the other, hence someone like emmyboy was already drawing a midfield formation of Ndidi(DM), Aribo(CM) and Iwobi(AM). You too dey lie

komekn:
Is this the same Ekpolo that left Barcelona to play for Fleetwood Town ❓ Could only muster s dozen games over near two seasons and left for the deeper obscurity of the Nordic leagues.

People need to understand that there are players who do not need the SE to give thier careers a desperate and much needed life saving boost.

That will be true of most players playing at a good level in the top leagues and who have played youth level for England or any other top European league and country.

You are always writing out of point. How does this junk u wrote relate to the argument we are having?

I said I made a personal observation, that Edo origin players tend to be easily swayed by our advances than others, and I used ekpolo and osede as the least examples, out of blue ,u jumped in and started comparing/talking about who does not need the eagles to better their career.

Joebie:
You will have to take a lot into consideration before making those deductions.

Things like?

Joebie:
Where is Ekpolor from?
Modified Full name, Elohor Godswil Ekpolo.
And what influence did VicMo’s parent have I. His decision to play for Nigeria?

Seems u one of those who think Vicmo's parents are dead.

Humility017:
I think Akpoguma is from Delta state...
anyway... the parents influence tells a lot too....

I am so happy for this info

At the bolded is where I hail Edo patents.

Guy trust me whenever a European born Nigerian pops up and the player is Edo by origin, I don't lose sleep, but same can't be said when he is igbo or Yoruba. Just negodu Ogbonna, Onuoha, Ibe, Anyanwu, Ikechi Anya, Obinze Cole et al

Joebie:
Why u dey bring tribe into the matter na? What has that got to do with Akpoguma?

U call it a tribal while I call it my personal observation d e to track records.


Check out from Osaze, Vicmo down to the very least.


Did u know Ekpolor openly declared for Nigeria even as the captain of the great La masia, Osede was a strong part of Real Madrid and Spain youth system when he stated how green his blood was, look at Ebuehi, look at Ehizibue. Before u start una usually infantile name calling, I am a staunch igbo through and through, buh I give to Edo parents in diaspora.

forgiveness:
Of course! Good to them all. But are you sure Shehu is gone for good?

U would play a Turkish second division midfielder as a makeshift RB, ahead of Bundesliga, Serie A and Benfica stars?

tbaba1234:
He was waiting for Holland then.

He is 24 now. Reality has set in.

I think he is a better player than Dumfries. And he didn't pledge his allegiance recently. He actually did after seeing the success of Ebuehi who happens to be a fellow Edo boy, and also share same agent with.


Like i once said, Edo boys easily get swayed to pick Nigeria ahead of their counties of birth unlike Igbo and Yoruba guys. How old is akpoguma yet he ain't giving up on his unfeasible German dreams.

Don't be surprised to see uduokhai make his eagles debut b4 December

forgiveness:
This guy was better than Ebuehi then oooo.

Good to have both of them, plus aina in the mix. bye to shehu of Turkish second division

tbaba1234:
I hear Alampasu has been released by Feirense

Nawa oo

I think Ovie Ejaria is actually deceptively strong. Just checkout his legs

Humility017:
this guy called Komekn will never cease to amaze me....
just see how he is getting emotional all because we desire and crave for the German born players....

ohh boi..... I wonder ooo

For his pocket. His tears can't change nothing

tbaba1234:
Team of the week in Latvia.

It only shows that he is better than Latvia

I am tipping him to get a considerable amount of minutes for the Betis first team this season, atleast in the cup games.

Humility017:
yeah ajayi can cover up for Ndidi
in the DM role

Yea dats right

Joebie:
Getting game time is the most important thing for him now.

That, plus exposure he would sure get, playing for Almeria. He made the right choice choosing the Segunda ahead of that Turkish second division team, Bursaspor

komekn:
When l compared both of them to Dominic Iorfa who was then playing for England and Wolves as a first team first choice player.

I was called bias and accused of being his agent over hyping him, he denied Nigeria.

These two German boys have done exactly what Tammy has done. But we still keep begging them.

In my opinion even Odubanjo who is now coming back to form after injury is better than them. Indeed IMO technically he is better than Iorfa. However, for the physicality of the English game, Aerial dominance and pace Iorfa has the advantage , in addition Iorfa is also CB.

But for the position of RB with Nigeria in consideration our technical style of play my view is that Odubanjo may have may have the advantage. But open to debate but he would be the best option seemingly.

U have this strong proclivity to make incoherent travesties and still want to sale it as facts. What has Odubajo and Iorfa got to contend with Uduokhai and Jordan? Do they play in the same positions? Amidst all these qualities u used to describe Iorfa, dude in still in the abyss of the championship while the ones u so berate play in the top leagues. I guess the premier league scouts are too blind to notice what a classy player he is. Beats my imagination how one would create farcies and still dwell in them. Man we know better
