Since turning professional, as a winger, has Onyekuru ever failed to get double digits of goals in a season?

andrew444:
Yeah that's the secret of his goal scoring form

U mean his poor goals return?

Curtisaxel7:
Does this guy sleep in his SE jersey? .

Still doesn't make him any less a waste in the pitch

TheGoodJoe:
Midfielders: Andre Ayew (Fenerbahce, Turkey), Mubarak Wakaso (Alaves, Spain), Christian Atsu (Newcastle, England), Kwame Bonsu (Asante Kotoko), Ernest Asante (Al Jazira, UAE), Thomas Partey (Atletico Madrid, Spain), Alhassan Wakaso (Vitoria S.C, Portugal), Jeffrey Schlupp (Crystal Palace, England), Alfred Duncan (Sassuolo, Italy)

The bolded are good and I can bet Alfred Duncan is good because I highlighted how impressed I was with the play of Sassuolo when they played AC Milan. Unfortunately, I did not watch the Napoli - Sassuolo game.

In case u haven't seen Duncan play before, he typifies young Batkley of Everton. He likes short, simple but decisive passes in the midfield and around the final third. He also chips in wt his own fair share of goals. Duncan (though agonisingly under rated by Appiah), Partey and tireless Wakaso of Alavez are my best midfielders for the black stars.

Another young exciting midfielder is Godfred Donsah of Bologna, though incessant injuries have greatly slowed him down.


That said, since the inception of the 21st century, to me, that Kwesi Appiah of Wimbledon remains the biggest scam ever, in the history of the black stars. As much as I wanted the old Gold Coast to lose to the Ivory Coast in the 2015 AFCON final, that Kwesi boy made me feel badly for Ghana. Boy was worse than crap. He could neither trap nor complete a single pass, until he was yanked off before the hour mark. Very useless player

Danielnino00:
Yea..I remember you said so... I also remember that you said Chuks was struggling(wonder why u didn't include that )

Chuks contract with Villarreal will expire at the end of the season, so it's possible he will leave...
The offers will come because he has done well to attract suitors.. its not until you read it in the news before u will know that clubs are after him..

Danny why? Why Danny? Why this upper cut

komekn:
If that's a joke, you are the only one laughing.

Otherwise your attempt at sarcastic humour is infantile, childish and STALE.

Tell him Awoniyi says Hi!!

gustav25:
Just a reminder , kylian Kelechi has 24goals this season alone but same can't be said for Iheanacho Nacho mbappe better than kylian Kelechi

This joke is stale and boring already. Get us something new

Utonwanne:
Samu doing good!

Time to start where I stopped

Utonwanne m ooo

nelszx:
Chukwueze with a rabona R2 GOAL That left foot reminds me of Robben

A wicked Curler bro, not rabona.

I knew my boy will never let me down. Did u see how he single handedly won Villarreal this match?

That pass to iborra that birthed the first goal was heavenly, the less said about that wicked curler...

Chai Chuks is a criminal

Samuel Chimerenka Chukwueze, thats the name!!

elyte89:
Baba awon boys


Aw many boys u don get now

If u young and doing good, u my bwoy!!! If u old and doing good, u my man, my niggy, my guy.

BascoVanVeli:
Osimhen and Awoniyi with goals already. Osimhen scored his first penalty in Europe

I'm tipping either of the two to get me a brace today. A brace from Awoniyi would make his stat, 8 goals in 8 matches Choi!!!

Choi another boy of mine, Awobaba hangs!!

My boy Osimhen, hangs once again!

Odunayaw:
Talk about saying what's in front of us.
He scored no?

No be new thing when it comes to tier 3 leagues. He always does, in VERY WEAK leagues nah.

TheGoodJoe:
I used to tell Manchester United fans I know that Fred will sparkle under Solskjaer. Nice seeing him working hard for the team.

Anyone notice his similarities with Ogenyi Onazi. This is how good Onazi would have been if he was good with his positioning.

By the way, the longtime on the bench did not hinder Fred.

It is now Onazi versus Fred? OK oo carpenter Ogenyi Fred Onazi

austineaddy:
He was a 69th minute substitute
He didn't start the match

Yea my bad, he rather got a yellow in the 86th minute. Like u said, he started from the bench.

Aina passed a late fitness test to start from the bench, for Torino away to Frosinone. He registered an assist, after coming on in the 69th minute, for Lorenzo De Silvestri, buh got yellow carded in the 86th minute.

Modified

Who else is seeing this two - man defensive wall of Saiss(Morocco) and Boly(Ivory Coast)? Very solid and orgasmic

komekn:
Although l don't always agree with you.

But the truth must be told and yes an EPL club was very interested in him. But all the deception and arrangement around him simply made things impossible.

Lol we dey agree sometimes oo

That said, please Whats happening to DoMessi SolankeMbappe at Bournemouth? He doesn't have Origi and Sturridge blocking his path anymore oo

andrew444:
I would have call him chriskels boy but he is not ENUGU IMO ANAMBRA and co

Whenever u want to say something stupid as u are wont to, always endeavour to eschew this moniker "Chriskels" please. Next u call it a stunt as a damage control, please, I am not cut out for such witless puerile jokes.

Be properly guided

All of you comparing the eagles of old to this present eagles are not serious. I'll prefer this present eagles to the old eagles because , the old ones are more of big players without good team play.

what we have today is more of average players but can do wonder as a team, which is better as far as football is still a team sport.

Look at the eagles of 2013 that won the AFCON, they won because they played as a team instead of individually that we usually have before.
That is why we could afford not to have a Mikel and a Victor Moses in the qualifiers and still get superb result because they play as a team and don't rely on the big names. Have you ever wondered why Nigeria did not win anything serious after the AFCON 1994 and wonderful performance on the world cup the same year? it was because after the tournament , most of those guys became popular, went to big clubs and became bigger than the team, hence the ego clashes that happens all the time among the players. They started playing individually and not as a team.

Have you ever wonder why the Las England squad at the world cup surpassed expectations and beat the performance of the Rooney, Lampard et al eras? it was because their game was more of a team play, rather than individual brilliance.

Spain, Germany and France are the last three to have won the world cup, none did it with average players, this is against ur theorem.

World class players win u gold not average players. Panama came with average players to try to punch above their weight in 2014, they couldn't stand the heat at the long run, Iceland too in the Euro.

Yes unity, team spirit, tolerance, discipline and understanding are the prerequisites to succeeding as a team, buh, u must not Parade average players in order to have/instill these sine-qua-nons. This is where a good coach comes in, Herve Reinard did it with what was left of the aging Ivorian golden generation. Never site England as an instance bkus England just like Africans like gloating.

If a coach like Reinard had handled ivory Coast or Nigeria all those years, the result would av been a lot different and more positive.

The best African repps in the world cup till tmrw, remain the best assemblage of quality stars with good management, without sentiments, from Cameroun in the 90s, Senegal in the early 2000s to ghana in 2010.

In summary, u dont need average players to succeed at the highest level, rather, u need quality players with discipline, team spirit, understanding et al.

The guy's head is strong o No be just this afternoon de yab am?

In a league equal to English league2 (English third tier)? Talk of mediocrity glorification

andrew444:
This your story dey one kind o ,yet na Bastia of French division 2 mba go ,club wey dey battle make dem no relegate to division 3?

MBA career don finish like this because e no get club

Yeni matalyspor get promotion last season or so ,the coach no want MBA .

Make e go India or Malaysia league or make e come back naija league

Wait oo, u claim to know about Nigerian football yet u dont know about the ownership tussle between Warri Wolves and Rangers, over Sunday Mba, that cost him a better move to Europe, masterminded by Amaju Pinnick? SMH


At the bolded, the post you quoted said he had to settle for scrubs, and u still put in that line "yet na Bastia of French division 2 Mba go..."? U and use of English sef. Bro, na Bastia be the scrub wey I dey talk of. In absence of the tussle, Mba wouldn't have ended up in a shitty club like Bastia, he had better clubs in top European leagues coming for him but were put off by the tussle. Dats wetin d post wey u quote mean.

andrew444:
because he is not good and because kelechi kylian iheanacho mbappe was the better player and starred at the World Cup

Hahahahaha yet u wan make him lead the lines for us in Egypt?

Lol Andy my man!!

andrew444:
Yes MBA was a lucky boy with the eagles .

Now tell me how did pinnick spoiled MBA European dreams ?

Is pinnick MBA agent ?

Pinnick was the Delta State FA Chairman then, and was claiming ownership of Mba via Warri Wolves, whereas they already sold Mba to Rangers, tagging him a flop, before the Afcon not knowing Mba's fate had other plans. Luck smiled at him, he got selected by Keshi and shone at the Afcon to attract European suitors. Suddenly, Pinnick emerged outta blue claiming they didnt sell him outrightly to Rangers, causing an ownership tussle btwn dem and Rangers. That ownership tussle scared away many illustrious clubs that wanted him after that tourney, hence, leaving the boy wt scrubs. That thing still dey pain every soccer loving isuikwuato man till mrw.

Even Southgate can testify to this, I guess he had an Epl club then, who really wanted the guy, buh for the tussle.

andrew444:
As him no start oya criticize people wey start ?

you just dey force your self to win case anything you wan talk talk me don tell you my own .

Him no start and na bench warmer yet you no allow am rest ,people wey start to talk about them dey fear you ?

No need to dey express your self by saying e pain am ,you don already talk am before

Answer the simple question, why ur top striker no start at the mundial? Was he top-striking for the Bench Warmers Association?

andrew444:
Crappy MBA was important and won naija the afcon

Once you don't like a player you don't speak the truth that's one thing about you ,it's clearly written all over you .

Me hate my own brother? Bros Mbah is a guy I know and celebrate, we all dey play December league then. We(umunnekwu) dey always knack his community(Umuobiala) akpako whenever we jam dem for isuikwuato December league. I cant hate my own buh then I cant mince words to favour my own. Mbah was just a lucky boy with the Eagles, nothing special. That said, I still hate Pinnick till tomorrow for truncating Mba's European dreams.

andrew444:
Lol

Seems ighalo didn't lead the line during the World Cup why ranting against him ?

You didn't see nacho to rant against

Seems ighalo was a bench warmer ,then start ranting against the starters

You are confused bro

Lol e pain am

The truth they say, hurts.

So, why him no start nah, upon everything u said about him being the top striker before the world cup? Abi him na the striker of the Bench Warmers Association? Na for bench top strikers dey stay?
Maybe he was top-striking on the bench

andrew444:
See just take it that ighalo will lead the line as a striker during this afcon

Better go do fasting and prayer make e break leg

Enjoy ighalo till rohr leaves

You can talk from now till next year ,all those one wey you dey call your boys dem no go dey there .

Emenike time don come and pass ,I will always tell you he is a good player ,I won't be bias like you .

Hey you boy, u making the same mistake again. It is not cast in stone that Ighalo would be leading the lines. Remember, before the world cup, u said he owned the number 9, buh at the World Cup proper he turned out a bench warmer instead, hence making u a liar.
