If Iheanacho had started from a club that will be giving him regular play time, he presently wont be in a small club at this point of his career. GUESS HE WENT FOR THE MONEY AND FAME ATTACHED TO THE CLUB. Still young though and corrections can still be made. His transfer would have been a meag one if he wa in a team that allowed in show-case his talent regularly on the play field.


Seeing a raw talent like him leaving Man-city for Leicester is like grace to grass to me!

On point!!!!!!!

If he is not careful, he might be coming off the bench for the foxes.

bakila:
No, there is no need.

We are a failed state, everything is a joke, it is clear.

I have questions

What about the other governors?
Why is a meeting of this magnitude being held in a foreign country when we are a sovereign nation?
Why is Buhari still wearing his black jalamia?
Why hasn't he resigned due to his health?

Can anybody answer these questions?

Get well soon, football is secondary, your life is more important

How can elevate ourselves when we are busy tearing each other down.

That's great, but Argentina is no2.?? Which mathematical formula did they use?

DavidoArsenal:
He's not doing it for Argentina? Lmao you're very funny. WC against Germany that they lost by a lone goal after missing numerous chances?
Or the Copa Americas that they lost on penalties? Please be serious.

Didn't know they hand out prizes for second place. Look, let me know when Argentina wins something OK?

FIFA realized that Argentina might not make next WC,

Frankaka8:
Olympics is a mixed of senior team and oda promising players.

Olympics are for players under the age of 23 plus 3 over age players.

His career is not over yet, so he has time to win a world cup and/or a copa.

Yes. He was the greatest striker and one of our greatest players.

I dare anyone to name from our current crop who can score 4 goals in one match

Frankaka8:
penalty is a gamble, it can go any side. Getting to 4finals was/is applaudable, hardluck then set in. Yet he was the Best player of the last worldcup even after losing d cup. He won U17 Fifa worlddcup and Olympics gold medal ( with Argentina National teams).

The youth trophies (Olympic medal is under 23 not national team) he won are youth trophies.

At senior level he has won "diddly squat". Don't be seduced by his Barcelona form; he has yet to duplicate it , at senior level.

DavidoArsenal:
is it Barcelona football club that is helping him make those runs? dribble players? Score goals? I can never understand you guys. That very final, he played well, it just wasn't to be

Well to answer your question, yes it is Barcelona football club that has helped him do wonderful things, cause he is not doing it for Argentina.

It wasn't meant to be against Germany (wc2010, 2014)
It wasn't meant to be against Chile twice (copa america 2015, copa america centanario 2016)

I rest my case

DavidoArsenal:
This leave Barca talk again? You guys are so funny. He has played with different sets of players at that same Barca but he's not great simply because he didn't leave Barca. You know how many players you will regard as shit because they did not leave their clubs? smh

He is great nobody is disputing that, and yes he has played with several other players...but its still Barcelona and an inbuilt system perfect for his skill set. If I'm his agent I'll tell him to never leave.

My biggest memory of his ineptitude in pressure situation was the last world cup. After the game against Naija I called it right there and then, "Argentina will win the world cup".

Then the final game v Germany and I kept looking for Messi, for long stretches of the game....I didn't even know he was playing. That was his moment laid out for him to TAKE and he didn't. Germany sef didn't seem to want the game either, until Gotze scored late.

foladj:
So iniesta, neur, etc are G. O. A. T? Because they won final. Abi shey dem no win am ni?
Don't you know it takes more than individual brilliance to win world cup, thats why people like spain, germany have won it. They have great team work.
You can't rely on one person to win world cup. They no dey joke for world cup.
If Argentina and Portugal think because they got messi and Ronaldo then they have automatic ticket to win world cup,then they are still joking.

Iniesta, neur etc are among the best players of their generations, no doubt, but even in their respective countries, they are not considered the GOAT.

Germany's GOAT is without a doubt the Kaiser
..and guess what, he won the cup as a player and even as a coach. I doubt if Iniesta is the best Spain ever produced...Casillas would probably be called the Spanish GOAT and he won the cup.

Yes its a team sport,and you can't always rely on one player, but your best player cannot be a liability when you need him the most.
* He was invincible at Rio 14, until he reached the final and faded badly.
* He misses a penalty so badly he has to hide in front of the whole world and wilt. Great players miss penalties, but the greater ones overcome it. They don't use their FA as an excuse and then retire Was it FA that booted penalty wide?

Messi is a great player, but not the greatest... He leads Argentina to a world cup title next year.....then sure, why not

foladj:
He has gotten to final sha. And was MVP at the last concluded World Cup.

MVP This is not NBA abeg

Great ones reach finals, GOATs win finals.

kingDELE:
i come to realize something from some nairalanders, dey seems so mature when it comes to issue of arguments. U call me kid, its okey. But you old adult should stay of topic dat kids will invade.


At least u are an adult, u should be able to dictate a kid invasion able topic....

When did talking about football become exclusive topic of conversation for youth only?

OK, chance to redeem yourself....simple question that even kids should be able to answer......

If Messi is the greatest then why hasn't he delivered for Argentina in the World Cup?

Debate that...

kingDELE:
you think you debate like an adult? Den stop thinking about favour when debating....

All this because I said Messi is not the greatest and I backed it up with instances where he did not deliver
......
you came swinging like a drunken sailor who just grew his first hair on his chin and are inching for a fight.

Listen carefully, kid, Messi is one of the greatest....but he is not the greatest.... go and ask your Facebook friend in Argentina the last time Messi won them something......

kingDELE:
beliv it or not, world cup best player is something dat ronaldo will neva have.

His team won d euro 2016 not him. He offered nothing.


Messi took Argentina to d world cup final.

I guess u are aware of his ban from world cup qualification?
________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

My only problem is how u always open ur trash can to say fifa do favour messi's side...

You should know, you put your trash in my can, pls put it in your can next time.

When u learn to debate like an adult, without insults, meet me at the grown table.

Lot of fans boys up in here I see.......allow me to respond

Frankaka8:
strike maradona outta ya option, he is a drug addict during his time. And strike pele outta it, cos football was tooooooooooo wack back then. Messi is the best and most gifted football ever!

Lol, no wahala

Frankaka8:
can yu also compare pele's opponents to dis current opponents as regards defenders?? Messi was/is the MVP (Best player of the tournamnet)at the Last Worldcup in the midst of over 700 footballers that partook. And dat wasn't a barca team. So what is ur claim?? Messi got to the worldcup finals(end of the tournamnt) and lost on extra time after 90mins with an injury rocked argentina team is enof feat.

For somebody so great, he sure wilts when he is not wearing barca colors.
*He was listless and scoreless in the WC final that they outplayed Germany,
* He was so great at copas that he missed a penalty and tried to hide his face in his jersey
* Maradona handed him the team and arm band to try to take him to the next level at world cup 2010....they were run out the building by Germany

Pele has 3 world cup titles
Maradonna has 1 title
Where is Messi's world cup title and Olympic medal of 2008 is close but not the same

Next world cup is next year and a messi led Argentina can't even qualify out of their group. FIFA will find a way to get them in with some 2 leg qualifier against Tahiti or somebody like that. So no wahala.

But its just opinion, with cold hard facts.

Champions league titles and LA liga titles are great for CV sake, but its incomplete without a WC title for a player designated as the great one.

Frankaka8:
Let me know when pele or maradona wins the balon d'or 5times and still counting.....

You are comparing a global title to an individual award

Somebody tell the great one to leave barca and let's see how great he is.

Let me know when the great one wins the world cup or copa america.

PELE the greatest of all time!!!!!!

No

Play a season and then retire

Only 11?
I was expecting 20

Not too long ago Chelsea with a back up coach and as an underdog won champions league, how quickly we forget.

EPL can do better

(i) EPL needs to lighten their schedule so that the top 4 teams are fresher during UCL season

(ii) Arsenal have failed the EPL several times, with listless and embarrassing showings and a stubborn coach that won't adapt. Best thing for the EPL will be next season with Arsenal not making top 4.

(iii) LFC are in the last 8 of champions league!!!!!! Other EPL teams need to challenge city and arsenal for the top four spots, so more adventurous, adaptable EPL teams can give better showings.

No wonder his form has dipped. He has been dipping

This is a training exercise....
