timay:


I'm enjoying the argument between the two of you.

But dude, are you kidding me. Why mention CR7, who is a 5 times balloon d'or in your argument. Are you saying he's not worth 100million even at 34?

CR7 and Messi are the only players at their age that any Rich club will buy at an outrageous price, even at their age. Those two guys don't even need to kick a ball before those clubs get their money back because of their commercial value.

Oga, commot CR7 from your argument , and continue the conversation with the other guy

Hazard at 28 was bought for 100+ and his not much off than Zaha

andrew444:


Oga mbappe play as a winger and not a striker ,this is simple and clear ,cavani is psg striker and no one can take that away from him

I said gnabry is not doing badly

I didn't mention Leroy sane ,ryad mahrez? Sorry these 2 guys can win matches for you and I will take them over zaha

Win matches you say? Zaha scored 10 assisted 5 and won 10 penalties for Crystal Palace that's the meaning of winning matches

I can't remember Man city depending on Sane or Mahrez for such

andrew444:


Cr7 is out of this world so don't add him to this arguement

Cr7 and Leo Messi are the only old players that can be bought for more than 100 million

Hazard is 28 but he was bought for 100 million +

Zaha is 27 with identical numbers of returns (despite playing for a lesser club) and you say 90 million is too much for him?

andrew444:


Sterling under pep Issa bomb

Gnabry of Bayern is not doing bad

Should I also remind you of the bigger boys mbappe and Neymar ? They play as wingers for psg

For you to compare Zaha to Gnabry is an insult

Mbappe plays as a striker you can't compare him to Zaha

edi287:

They are younger. Zaha is 27. Simple. Dembele played and preformed in the ucl. Potential >>.
Zaha is not established enough to make that argument with.

C. Ronaldo was bought at 100 million at 30+ why was nobody talking about age

If you can contribute goals and assists like Zaha does 90 million is not a bad price

andrew444:


Eden hazard
Saido mane
Sterling

Are these 3 players midfielders ?

I will not even call the bigger boys

Sterling is not better than Zaha he's just playing in a better team with a better coach

I'll agree with the other two though

komekn:


I don't agree with you.

But l would say that an astute, forward thinking and intelligent coach. Will tactically structure his team to bring out the best of the attributes of his individual players. That's what he is there to do to create effective team cohesion for competitive advantage.

Musa is possibly one of the fastest forward players in Africa.

We should set the team up to play to his strengths not the other way round. Expect him to play like Zaha when that's not his unique skill set.

It's a failing of the management of the team not the player.

Madagascar gave no space, and when you don't give space to run Musa has very poor interchange play

Football is moving beyond Adama Traore kind of wingers, we should be looking towards technical wingers like Onyekuru

edi287:

Consistent? Zaha has only had one season close to elite.

You can say the same for Dembele, Richalison before they were bought

Joao Felix was bought for 126 million and nobody knows how he plays

edi287:

Richarlison is younger and has more upside. He's scored 13 last season for Everton. Zaha is 27 and has not had double digits goals and assists for more than 3 seasons.

Richalison had 3 goals before he was bought for 50 million, Zaha had 20+ goals involvement in the last season and should be worth more

andrew444:


Epl maybe yes ,but I am not sure

Europe? Hell NO

Name three wingers better than Zaha in Europe

edi287:

We've had this debate before. Dembele is younger and had better numbers in two different leagues.
Zaha is 27 - not a prospect.

Hmm Zaha is better and more consistent

barackodam:



Sorry, a harmless question.

Who would replace Musa in the team?

Onyekuru, Chukwueze, Kalu plays both wings

edi287:

80 - 90 million based on what?? Palace can keep him then. No club in their right mind will pay that amount for him.
I'm hearing Arsenal may go back with 55m plus a player.

Richalison scored 3 goals last 2 seasons Everton bought him for 50 million

If Zaha was Brazilian, Real Madrid would have tabled 100 million for him

edi287:

80 - 90 million based on what?? Palace can keep him then. No club in their right mind will pay that amount for him.
I'm hearing Arsenal may go back with 55m plus a player.

Zaha is in arguably the best winger in EPL possibly Europe

90 million is not too much for him, Dembele was bought for 120 million

Taliban:


Is that? Thanks for the education.

However, can you explain why Wan Bissakas first bid was 25 million? Half of the final deal.

I don’t know but I'm not expecting Arsenal to increase their bid

That woman is scary

How can you want 2023 presidency and not want Ruga settlements

Taliban:


I would expect that Zaha's valuation should be higher than Wan Bissaka's. However on BBC right now, the valuation I saw is 80 million not 90 million. But then the 40 million is just the first offer which means Arsenal will add more as negotiations continue but maybe not up to 80 million.

First offer is normally nearer to the player's value

But I believe that's all Arsenal have

edi287:

45-50m is a decent amount for him. Palace are dreaming if they think they'll get 100m for him.

Wanbisaka was bought for 50 million, Zaha should be 80-90 million

darkelf:


Damnnnn. Does it mean Iwobi's playing time is under threat??

Arsenal bidding 40 million for Zaha is the joke

Arsenal have bid 40 million for Wilfred Zaha

We remembered how we used to live as brothers as sisters in our darling nation with these same Fulani herdsmen.
The times we gave water and food to herdsmen journeying across the nation as they go on their business peacefully,
Just with their sticks for their cattles and kettles for their prayers,
that was all before the evil and criminal minded politicians begun sponsoring some of them for evil because they want to remain in power forever.

That was before the mad man called FFK began tweeting that they have sex with their cows, just to start war and bring unrest in the country.

May it never be well with troublemakers in our darling nation.

Nigeria will be great again in our lifetime in Jesus name!

No land for terrorists

naturecures:


moses and chukwueze left and right wing backs respectively 3-5-2 formation

Osimehen and Musa 2 strikers upfront.

my opinion

3-5-2 is a defensive formation, forget

naturecures:


think moses and chukwueze/kalu left and right wing backs respectively 3-5-2 formation

Osimehen and Ighalo 2 strikers upfront.

my opinion

Can Chukwueze play LWB?

3-5-2 doesn't accommodate normal wingplay

Bolowolowo:
Our next game is this Friday. We are yet to find out our opponents but most likely it’s Ghana.

AFCON is flying by really quick.

I hope it's Ghana any other opponent will be tricky

I think it's time Musa retires from the national team he doesn't have the technical ability to break down defences

And when he's not afforded space to run he doesn't contribute much

naturecures:
what super eagles need now is two strikers in any formation whatsoever. else IGHALO the apple of Rohr eyes will continue to get caged by any tactical coaches.

Two Strikers no wingers?

That would be easy to cage besides wing play is SE greatest strength

nairalandankrah:
Anyways in another news, can you guys imagine balogun? No single sign of remorse for such school boy error...


No Apologies just acknowledgement of a “miscued pass” to Ikechukwu Ezenwa that led to a goal, that’s all Leon Balogun has offered after Nigeria’s 2-0 defeat to Madagascar, as he puts on a brave face – plus oh, He’s not a ROBOT...
Is This the best he could say to us?

Do you want him to cry

He's a matured defender

Where is the 19? old?

How can you speak for people who don't want to be spoken for

Even on nairaland many of them are defending Ruga
