he won't be the first teenager that looked 'promising'..... We are still waiting for some others with 'promise' to bloom, even though they have been promising for the last four years.

That perennial Chelsea loanee that was promising two years ago, we never see the promise, he is still a loanee. Who pre-season epp?

Iwobi, Achor, Assensio, Vieto, el sharawy , wilshere, walcot, Alex Arnord, maitland niles, Mbappe, Moussa Dembele et al too numerous to mention

Danjuma to start for Brugge
Bonaventure on the bench.

Wow Bournaventure is already back from injury to make the bench? That's a good news

Modified ; I couldn't see him on the bench bro. Wasnt listed by whoscored.com

tbaba1234:
Nigerians should watch out for Luke Ayodele Amos. The boy is a baller. We should not sleep on the guy. If he makes his breakthrough for spurs this season then England will invite him.

He is already an England U18 star but he looks promising even though preseasons flatter to deceive

komekn:

I am on this occasion WRONG without question. Not afraid to say.


I didn't look at the article in depth just scanned through it. And missed the comments about Success.

That being the case it's Fabulous news. I have always said FAILURE is the beginning of success once it's accepted and learned from.

He is now under no illusions, I hope about the mental tenacity, diligence and DISCIPLINE required to make it in the EPL. Talent alone is not enough.

He needs consistency it's early days yet but signs of Promise.

Every good player quite often proves pundits and even personal coaches wrong. I remember when I first met Raheem Sterling and seen how small and physically under developed. I concluded he would never make it.

So let last year's Wasteman become this year's Best man.

It's honorable to admit an error. I'm humbled, and in this case, I take back my earlier post. My unreserved apologies sir.

We all want the best for the team.

But I will always wield my axe whenever anyone goes wrong, and at same time hail that individual when he retraces his step. Dats my true identity

elyte89:
Still he doesnt deserve such statement. I tot we shld av surpassed dis unnecessary tantrums,his statement whether positive or negative on a 3rd party, not even you doesn't add or subtract anything FROM YOU SIR CHRISKELS ,U b chairman for dis thread,anything u don't like,simply ignore.

Trust me, I would have looked away if he had said his trash without quoting me. I always do.

Well u made sense and ur advice didnt fall on deaf ears. Happy Sunday

BascoVanVeli:
Dude learn how to take a joke. You are thinking too much.
I was talking about Success before preseason so surely I am not being negative towards him.

I wonder what correlation the bolded has with the post below, which came in support of the view that pre-seasons flatter to deceive even though it has been proven not to be so in many occasions. Now u wanna pretend u were joking. It was a Joke indeed

BascoVanVeli:
Reminds me of Mourinho and Moses. During preseason: Victor Moses was great, Victor Moses was marvelous.....Start of regular season: Victor Moses is going on loan to stoke, Victor Moses is going on loan to West Ham.

krattoss:
the way u tackle this guy on this thread is ridiculous..
He didn't insult u but u have started throwing tantrums..
He steal ur wifey

Stop sounding like a f00l. Was he polite with his approach? What he showed was pure hatred, hence he deserved no good. What did the guy he was insulting do to him? Besides he knew what was coming because I have warned him several times never to quote me whenever he wanna say something stewpid like he did up there

tbaba1234:
Awaziem during the Porto players presentation for the season.. Can you spot the man with a 9ja jersey?

No amount of hatred from all these short Sighted Naija fans can stop u my boy. Keep putting them to shame, ur man is solidly behind you. Soar on

BascoVanVeli:
Reminds me of Mourinho and Moses. During preseason: Victor Moses was great, Victor Moses was marvelous.....Start of regular season: Victor Moses is going on loan to stoke, Victor Moses is going on loan to West Ham.

Did it also remind u of Pelegrini and Achor, Zidane and Assensio, Wenger and Iwobi et al?

Dude stop being so negative with ur thinking .

How many goals did last year's waste man score, how many MOTM has he been awarded this pre- season. ❓ ❓ ❓

Link to match reports below. His name not even mentioned.

So can you substantiate your view or is just HYPE of your favourite player ❓

You are an asshole. Nothing less than that

If u are a very honest man, a realist who doesn't allow sentiment becloud his sense of reasoning, then, some times, u will be able to see things even bfor they happen.

Here is my post sometime in the past about Mercano the Porto's former no.5 sold to Roma after the past season and Awaziem

charlesemeka85:
yea the guy na cute boi also he looks very young

ChrisKels:
Very very young. I am so happy for him. Porto coach sold one of his stalwarts in the defense this past season few weeks ago to Roma to create a chance for young Awaziem in the first team next season.

Nigeria
Super Eagles Coach Rohr Monitoring QPR Duo Osayi & Eze Ahead AFCON 2019 Qualifiers

The fine form of Anglo-Nigerian duo Bright Osayi -Samuel and Ebere Eze has not gone unnoticed by coach of the senior national team of Nigeria Gernot Rohr , Owngoalnigeria.com understands.

They were both on target for the English Championship side in their 3-0 win over German side Union Berlin with Osayi-Samuel scoring the second goal while Eze scored the third and final goal from the spot.

According to reports gathered by our editorial team, coach Rohr has been monitoring the duo for a while with Eze even training with the Super Eagles during a training camp in London last year.

Nigeria will soon regroup for the AFCON 2019 Qualifiers tie against Seychelles, and one among the duo is likely to make the squad as Rohr is keen on rebuilding the team with young players after their first round exit at the World Cup.

” Most people don’t know how Rohr works. He has information on almost all Nigerian players doing well at their respective clubs. Eze even trained with us in London “, a member of the backroom of the team told Owngoalnigeria.com.

” I can’t say for now if they will make the team for the Seychelles game, maybe Eze could make it. It all depends on what Rohr think he can add to the team if called up”, he concluded.

tbaba1234:
He started this season with determination. Perhaps, seeing his mates at the world cup pushed him in the right direction. I hope he has a great season.

Ur second line nailed it. Dude must have felt hard done by his own character and decided to discipline himself. I wish him all the best.

safarigirl:
All these pre-season games flatter to deceive. Make we enter the real season, we go see who be who.

I am sha sure that Man City isn't taking that trophy this season

And u forgot it is the best time for players(mainly those with a point to prove) to make impressions on their coaches to be given a chance in the main event? U forgot a bad pre season could place u on the bad book of the coach and have u sent away on loan?

It was a good preseason that gave Achor his Man City break under Pelegrini

Watford coach, Gacia on Success;

"He looks a bit different from the rest. Fitter, hungry and very hardworking in training. So far he is like a new signing to us”,

Isaac Success the best Watford player so far in this preseason. Yes u heard me right... The real Isaac Success is back to his beast mode!!!

fabyom:
Naija boyz are painting Europe with goals. Rohr should please extend invite yo that Nig- Brazilian guy in China

U are very funny. Rohr should invite someone from chinese second division club just because of the tag "Nig-brazilian"?

Just the same way we should invite Ryan Sanusi because he is Moussa Dembele's cousin

Funny ppl full here walahi

Awaziem haters are u seeing what I am seeing?

Forgiveness how fa nah? U said d boy go chop bench, u said d boy is going back to Porto B. Wetin come dey happen?

Nnamdi Ofoborh has been officially promoted to Bournemouth first team campaigning in the EPL. He has been assigned the squad number 56 for next season. He is a left-footed midfielder, something Rohr has been looking for that made him keep under performing Joel. I pray Nnamdi gets a good number of appearances in the EPL to force Rohr's hand. His EPL experience will also come in handy for Aigbogun's under 20 team.

Joebie:
Nigeria has a bad reputation. Our image is not helping matters. However, we can turn things around,football-wise if we start to put our domestic league in good light.

I am bereft of words

Throwback

Abbey George and Joseph Yobo. Is that Osaze behind?

forgiveness:
You are only deceiving yourselves if you think Onyekuru is an inch better than Victor Moses, Simon and Ahmed.

Is Valencia in the level of Chelsea were Vicmo dey or Liverpool, Monaco or Olympic M. wey dey look for Simon and Ahmed?

Oga! They are all Nigerian players, so you should stop the better pass mentality for here. After dem go say na me dey start am.

I have nothing against those guys and I always wish them the best. I want Simon's Liverpool deal to push through as much as I want others to make better moves, I was the one who posted klopp's verdict on him, also I was the one who posted the news on how his agent scuttled his Tottenham move. But that doesn't make him as good a winger as Onyekuru. It's crystal clear.


As for Moses and Musa, we all know if they had continued as wingers, by now, their careers would have gone into oblivion. As a winger, Moses failed in all the clubs he was before Conte's Chelsea. Musa made his name playing as a striker for CSKA and when he got moved to the wings at Leicester, he was a massive failure..

I reiterate, Onyekuru is the best winger among all the wingers we have.

charlesemeka85:
the problem majority of our players have is bad agents and advisers

So painful. Imagine Etebo moving from CD Feirense to Las Palmas to Stoke in the championship.

charlesemeka85:
yes saw it few days ago. i doubt everton will sell him to valencia. while some dey move to slavia prague my boy is been monitored by good teams in better leagues hahahahahahahahahaha

Trust me Onyekuru is a gem. When I said he was better than everything we have as wingers, people thought I was beefing on others.

Yes, some of those wingers came to the national team before him, but he is miles ahead of them. From Musa, Simon, Vicmo to the Yinkas et al, they have nothing on Onyekuru as wingers.

As a striker, only Musa will give him a run for his money. KPOM

Ghana didnt make it to the world cup yet, their players seem to be getting more recognitions in this summer window than ours. Here are some who made giant moves from obscure leagues to the Europe top five leagues.

1- Richard Arthur - Wa All Stars Ghana to Lyon, France

2- Kasim Nuhu - Young Boys Swiss to Hoffeinhem, Germany

3- David Twumasi - Astana to Derportivo Alavez Spain

4- Nicholas Opoku - club Africain to Udinese Italy

Emmyboy did u read the news on Onyekuru and Valencia?

Confirmed: Nigerian Defender Dubbed The New David Alaba Joins SC Freiburg From Bayern Munich
Allnigeriasoccer.com understands that promising Nigerian defender Kimberly Ezekwem has ended his association with German champions Bayern Munich after penning a deal with another Bundesliga club SC Freiburg.

The left back, who models his game on Austria star of Nigerian descent David Alaba, will remain on the books of SC Freiburg until at least the end of the 2019-2020 season, having put pen to paper on a two-year contract.

Several clubs were interested in signing Ezekwem before SC Freiburg won the race for his signature and he has been added to their U19 roster.

The 17-year-old is not yet in tiptop condition as he recently recovered from a knee injury but is hoping to show off all his skills to his new employer when the new season begins on August 11.

Ahead of their first game against Unterhaching U19, Ezekwem has been training with SC Freiburg for the past three weeks.

He featured for the youth teams of SE Freising and 1860 Munich prior to his move to Bayern Munich.

He will be an under study to Deji Behruether. And just like Deji, Kingsley hasn't been capped by Germany at any level.

We stand a chance if ManU could do an Ejaria on him.

Isaac Success's rating as a second half sub for Watford in the preseason game against Stevenage ;


Isaac Success (replaced Jakubiak): Looked dangerous in attack. Fast, direct and looking likely to play a key role for Watford this term. 7

3:1

3:2 it ended. Not a debut to remember for Awoniyi

Awoniyi makes his competitive debut for Gent but they are losing 2 goals to 1 against Liege

AIG07:
I thought we played this same Morrocan side in our first match where our kids came from 2-1 down to win 3-2 with Lateef coming on from the bench to provide the last two assists.

The boys have done so well. Let the grooming continue

The bolded is the aim result is secondary

All three Nigerians who made the Gent 18man squad away to Liege in this opening jupiler league match start from the bench. But Uche Agbo starts for Liege.

Half Time scores 1v1
