guy if ejuke goes to moscow and starts posting mediocre numbers it will be hard for him to get an invite to the national team.

what is helping people like Samuel Kalu and Dennis is the status of the league they play in. let Kalu go to Turkey as speculated and be dropping those rubbish stats like last season see if he will still be called up

andrewbaba44:
This is not that bad as you think

And calling a player from cska Moscow to the eagles is not bad

Your wingers are not doing that well in highly rated league so what are you saying ?

Apart from Chuks and Moses Simon then who are your other wingers doing so well ??

I will start an inform player doing well for cska over someone not doing well in the so called epl laliga seria A

i think what elyte89 is saying is for you to be tagged world class you most have won something substantial. i'm also of that school of thought.

daveP:
This world class inference from trophy cabinet don come again.

Those with such tag have the cabinet

Some dont.


Which means that it's majorly down to influence on games, consistency and dominance in positional performance, and contribution to decisive goals, victories on the grand stage.

Funny enough, some players have all these qualities but still cant effect much on the grand stage. Does that now mean they aren't world class.


Some aren't even all noisy, or in the media, but always deliver on the grandest stage. Muller falls under this category well.


So what exactly is gonna be the top decider amongst the criteria?

poor transfer i'm afraid you are right. Russia for a young up and coming player is not the most ideal. with the kind of wingers we now have playing in more highly rated leagues than russia it would be hard for him to draw the attention of coach rohr

6 goals in 17 games in the Belgian league is what he is making noise about grin ..

Belgian league that Nigerians have used to play around cheesy

Simon, Onyekuru,Kalu,Imoh Ezekiel, Joseph Akpala,even Osimhen..

I don't remember him calling Osimhen a lion after his exploits in Belgium...
I actually remember him saying something like Osimhen's exploits in Belgium was no big deal because of the quality of the league cheesy

Why this epistle? Just to prove Kayode was given a chance he wasn't? Why can't you admit you lied?

yes the same game time Osimhen, Onyekuru and Nwaekeme were given? they didn't sit on their backside crying that they were not given enough game time. some of them went back improved in their clubs and got recalled.

there is no double standard i'm just giving you a taste your own medicine. when you were shining teeth some years ago because KC and Osimhen were going through a rough patch you used Solanke to mock them. now that the tables have turned you are getting uncomfortable.

for the record as much as I troll you about kayode ajagun and co i always wish them well unlike you that once you hear nwakali and iheanacho you vibrate.
forgiveness:
Was given good game time with just 14 minutes, 19 minutes and 3 minutes? Take it easy.

Lmao at the bolded. But you just did that today. Double standards at play here. grin

lol now you're blaming the NFF i hope you know Nigeria was leading egypt 1-0 before moses came on the pitch?

VICMO had a shot cleared off the line. I do think you should blame the coach calling up mediocre players and the NFF, taking such an important match against Egypt to Kaduna, knowing fully well the weather will affect our players adversely...

equal stats but Awaziem edges it with one assist. plus Nantes wanted to make Awaziem's transfer permanent correct me but I'm not sure Ilori was wanted permanently by Bordeaux

forgiveness:
Ok. Now, see the Ligue 1 again.

your comparison is deceptive. besides how many games did Ilori play? if Ilori did so well he would have been signed up by French or Spanish clubs plus he's 4 years older than Awaziem

forgiveness:
Good. Then why do you think Tiago Ilori flopped in Ligue 1 and Laliga when his rating was better than Chidozie?

musa did well in russia and holland yes saudi league is low level but won't use that to say (yet) he has lost it. happy you used the gnabry example flopping in EPL is not the end of the world.

still insist it's premature to call KC a flop in the EPL.

Kayode struggled in Spain and Ukraine but is finding his feet in Turkey. he was given good game time in the SE still needs to prove himself.

Umar yes struggled in scotland but how much game time was he given coupled with the fact that gerrard totally didn't rate him. again like the gnabry example you cited just because a coach doesn't rate you doesn't mean you can't turn the corner.

the bold is the reason I argue with you sometimes because of the fluid nature of football i can't declare someone as a categorical flop. Solanke could wake up on the right side of the bed tomorrow start bagging goals in the EPL. you can criticize a player when he's obviously not performing to expectations but when he starts doing better and turning the corner it would be unfair to the player to start doubting him based on passed performances. it will be like insisting thierry henry is a seria a when he later turned out to be one of the greatest players of his generation. so if people are happy and see encouragement in Iheanacho and nwakali's recent games let them be.

football is a funny game you can be a late boomer like drogba, vardy etc or progress naturally. it's all about improving your game.
komekn:
Musa actually flopped in the EPL but was still outstanding for the SE agreed, after playing in the middle east does he still have it ❓

KC is a flop in the EPL but above average competence in the SE.

Kayode was on fire in the Austrian league but did not get a run of games in the SE. A flop I disagree, he needs to prove quality for now way down the list.

Umar has been at best very average in better leagues but was totally abysmal in Rangers. He has gone to the backwaters of Europe and has been very good not the best in the league. He needs to upgrade his league and club and prove he has quality.

I noticed a player rejected by Arsenal dismissed at WBA is now becoming the best left winger in Europe.

The one consistent thing of football is CHANGE either up or down.

yes it's a good move to restart his career after injuries afterall did he play a significant number of games with Benfica to be judged a flop? i know it's the ilori flop that's paining you. struggled in england struggled in france now he has run back to portugal cheesy

That's a good one. Coming back to the Eredivisie doesn't tantamount to failure as Chrisooblog wants me to believe.

lol same Vicmo that was on the pitch when egypt eliminated Nigeria in the 2017 AFCON qualifier.

easy on the hero worship on moses. i respect and thank him for his services but let's not overhype his contributions.

fabyom:
The disrespect to VICMO is quite astonishing on this platform.
Giving some folks praise mediocre players like Nwakali, Iheanacho, Iwobi to high heaven on this same platform. Wow!

At Afcon 2013, we were absolutely abysmal in our first two games which we drew.
Our last game against Ethiopia was a must-win but again we were shambolic until Vicmo came into the game after overcoming the injury that sidelined him from the first 2 matches and took the game by the scruff of the neck causing and scoring two penalties to win the game for us.

Without VICMO's contribution, we would have been out in the first round.Against Ivory Coast, we were camped in our half until VICMO took the game to the Ivorians cutting in from the left and unleashing a ferocious shot that Bari managed to save. He kept marauding the Ivorians defense thereby boosting the confidence of the other players.

Against Mali, what more can I say? A career-ending superb dribbling to set up Echiejele for the first goal. He was the Malians tormentor in Chief. In the final, it was his movement, dribbling, and shot that led to Mba's goal that won us the cup. Put respect on VICMO. He also single-handedly took us to the 2018 world cup. Against Algeria and Cameroon, he was unplayable. Our single win against Iceland started with that sumptuous pass from VICMO to Ahmed Musa.

Give a fucking respect to the legend, VICMO!
With VICMO we would have won the last Cup of Nations.

i was referring to his recent form in the GWG. even you will agree he hasn't been stellar in the last couple of matches he has played for Nigeria. i agree when fully fit and in form he's our best defender

Subzero047:

charlesemeka85:
Imagine one giving reference to Moses afcon 2013 exploit when we are in 2020?

Their recalled would have been welcomed if we lack decent qualities in the team but judging by the talents we boast of currently I see no space for both

Sports › Re: "The Super Eagles Thread: The Road To AFCON 2027, 2028 And 2030 World Cup by chrisooblog: 9:37am On Aug 21, 2020
slight adjustment

2) Iheanacho - Proven SE player. Above average in EPL
7) Musa - Proven SE player performed at highest international level
10) Umar - showed promise in Seria A and Dutch Eredivise. Doing well in Serbia. Did well at Rio. untested and unproven in international soccer
11) Nwaemeke - tested in SE yet to prove quality
13) Iwobi - Struggling in EPL but proven in SE
14) Kayode - Laliga flop. tested in SE yet to prove quality

Based on SE performances yes Ighalo was outstanding but based strictly on club football at the highest level (not championship) sorry he leaves a lot to be desired. between Seria A, La Liga and EPL Odion has only scored more than 10 goals once. please that is not something to advertise as outstanding


komekn:
Available options**
1) Osimhen - good quality yet to be proven at Higher quality Seria A.
2) Iheanacho - EPL flop
3) Simon - Good
4) Chukwueze - 3 goals in 37 games, a lot of development work required.
5) Kalu - Ok but not outstanding
6) Onyekuru - Good but unproven at Higher level
7) Musa - EPL flop
cool Onauchu - unable to justify selection from games played in the SE
9) Dessers. - untested at a higher level
10) Umar - very low quality league ( village champion)
11) Nwaekeme - untested at a higher level
12) Ejuke - untested at a higher level
13) Iwobi - midfielder
14) Kayode - Good potential but untested in SE opportunity not given.


None of these players has attained the level of Ighalo and none of them is better than him. The only player able to contend is Osimhen.

We talk about players in form, what will be Osimhen form in the much more quality and competitive Seria A.

He will not be the focal point of the team and with a ball played into space and or over the top of defenders for him to run onto as the main strategy will simply not work in Seria A. This league is well know for defending and closing spaces.

This is a test that Ighalo has already passed with flying colours, PROVEN, TESTED and CONFIRMED.

If we bring Vic Moses into the equation none of them has played at his level and or exceeded his ability.

which provided assist? shot that cannoned of a burkinabe defender and fell to mba's path cheesy

moses did well but he wasn't our most important. he was one among many that contributed to our AFCON success

forgiveness:
Against Ethiopia we were at the verge of bowing out of the competition but the individual brilliance of Vicmo won us the match after he won two penalties and scored by himself. Can you remember?

Against Cote d'Ivoire he did well.

Against Mali in the semi final, his individual brilliance recked the Malian defence and led to an assist for the first goal.

In the finals, he provided the assist that led to the goal.

As you can see, he was involved in all the games.
