Mickael2: I can't believe you just said this. not every team needs a controller for your info, Chelsea last season had absolutely no controller in their team for most of the matches they played, now let's take a critical look at that team.
can you tell me that Ndidi cannot do what Kante does for them? can you tell me that Ogu, Azubuike, Agu, even Onazi cannot do what Matic used to do for them? Can't Victor Moses play our very own Hazard role? the problem with the SE lies with the coaches, we employ coaches with a limited skill set, a coach who only has one tactics in mind, no in game tweaks nothing nothing. currently we have a golden generation of wingers coming through and attackers but our defenders and defensive minded midfielders are dwindling why then can't the coach just adopt a formation that will suit wingers and attack minded players? when you keep on attacking your opponents for ninety minutes will they even see the ball to harm you? our problem is in our over insistence on playing two DMFs, I doubt if there is any modern national team that plays with two DMFs not to mention that we are spoilt for choice in other departments but we continue playing two DMFs. why can't we just play a bona fide 4-4-2 because of the attacking options we have? We have like six ever good wingers off the top of my head, when we only need two midfielders we will see that we are spoilt for choice there, Ndidi and Mikel seems like the best option right now, I don't see why the two can't hold their own against any team coming at them if they have good wingers that can take the pressure off the centre of the pitch. and in case of any eventuality we have Joel Obi and Ajagun and even Iwobi to replace Mikel, we have Ogu and a whole host of others to replace Ndidi but our problem is that we insist in playing that blasted 4-2-3-1 formation that requires a lot of through passes. the simple truth is that we do not have such players in our team at all and even Mikel that we celebrate will not cut it as an AMF for other top teams so Wyeth can't we just play to the strength of the players we have Chelsea have Luiz who builds up from deep. That's why Conte wanted Koulibaly last season and Van Dijk this one. They now have Christensen who is also a good ball playing CB. We don't have a ball playing CB at the back.. I haven't watched Awaziem so I don't know how much of a good passer he is, but with no great ball playing CBs, it was simply atrocious to play a midfield of Onazi - Ndidi - Etebo especially with Nacho as a 9. |

TheGoodJoe: I am not defending Iheanacho. Keep that aside. I am talking of Leicester City as a whole. Forget the goals they scored. Their football sucked. It will look good for defending players like Ndidi, Amartey, Morgan, Maguire etc but atrocious for attacking players.
I do not like Iheanacho in such system. It is not about him scoring goals or shining. It is the kind of way I want him developing with respect to the Super Eagles. I want our players playing in systems that complements what the coach is doing with the National team. He shouldn't have moved to leicester then. |

Please no Onuoha. Dude is only interested in playing for us now he has no chance of playing for England. I hate when some of these English born players come up with lame excuses and "turn a new leaf" after they've been dumped by england and want to play for us. The other time Agbonlahor was yarning nonsense about how NFF doesn't pay attention to English born players when they're young and only wait till they become big despite us inviting him to play for flying eagles and later SE while he was still an U21 player. I can understand not wanting to play for us due to corruption or whatever, but be straight and don't bring up these lame excuses. Onuoha is trying to be smart and claiming to have always supported SE despite his earlier statement about the difference when he watches England and SE. Screw Onuoha...he's not Nesta anyway so he can piss off for all I care |

Finally! Someone bold enough to speak up on this issue. Look, you don't have to like/approve homosexuals(personally I don't), but as long as they're screwing each other consensually, let them be. As long as they contribute in some way to the country, they deserve a right to at least screw themselves as much as they want without being worried about 14 years in prison. It's fine not to legalize gay marriage, but the 14 year nonsense has to be scrapped. It's plain stupid. |

Mickael2: poor poor analysis.
First of all spending money does not mean winning titles, so when Pep wins titles don't come here and tell us that he bought the title, case study- Real Madrid. Years and years of Galacticos, only one league title and no champions league, then they started grooming their young academy players and guess what? B2B champions league titles. So that is a poor analogy really.
Second, Man City's backling before Pep came was calamity Hart, Kompany, Mangala, Clichy/Sagna, Kolarov. Apart from Kompany, who else is world class there? So which world class team did he inherit? Not to mention that these guys are above 30, almost all of them anyways. The midfield? A 32 year old Toure is the main guy in the midfield, not that he is bad, far from it but at his age, he should be an integral part yes but not the main focal point. Then you have Aguero in attack, I always said he isn't world class and Pep came and I guess he saw the light too, so yes Man City needed a complete overhaul Well said. |

Nothing else to add but I am glad it will keep ill informed demagogues like Obi and Stanech out of here. That gladdens my heart because we have enough Uncle Toms butt lickers here and we don't need any more. My real problem with these guys is how they've been demonizing immigrants. They've been trying to push this notion of most immigrants being on welfare which is plan rubbish. Come out and be blunt with it, not this lame excuses they like giving. |

Don't understand why you put the GRE in there. It's unrelated to the other two and most euro schools focus mainly on your undergrad results and IELTS/TOEFL before they look at GRE. GRE is an alternative to GMAT. |
