In My opinion outside of Ekong he clearly better than any of our CB's.

If we go by Last season Fulham , Leeds, West Brom are clearly better than Boavista.

If we go to the bottom half with Stoke that fields two Nigerian international and many more internationals as well as Swansea.

Compare the team sheets and look at the personal if you look at the value and quality of players Boavista doesn't compete with these two teams.

The championship is more physicality and speed than technicality. Different types of football emphasis. So not all players can converge technicality with physicality and then add speed.

Players from the Championship regular go to the top leagues of Europe. And you will have to spend good money to prise a quality player from the Championship to any other league.

Money attracts the best players that's a given.

Drogba never even won the premier league player of the month award

You must be joking!!

Osaze won it thrice, Ighalo, I guess, once and Drogba? None?

charlesemeka85:
Newly promoted Serie A club FC Crotone are yet to officially announce the transfer of Ogenyi Onazi because they do not have an agreement to pay the midfielder based mainly on his performance.

The media have already reported that Onazi has undergone a routine medical ahead of penning a three-year contract as a free agent after he terminated his contract with Turkish club Denizlispor.



Onazi’s camp would rather he is given a normal contract with a monthly salary and win bonuses.

However, it is believed that Crotone are weary of the player’s recent battle with injuries.

The former Lazio star was hit by a long-term injury which kept him out for most of last year at Trabzonspor, who released soon after he had recovered.

He completed the rest of the part season at Denizlispor before he walked out on them over unpaid salaries.

Please, this boy is supposed to be 21 or so, I'm concerned that he looks like a middle-aged white man that works in a failing hardware store, that has been in his family for three generations.

GoddyOra:
I get your point man. Every U-17 tournament we see african teams like 9ja, mali and co dorminating their european and american brothers due to the age difference. Fast forward to U-23 and senior national team set up, we africans yansh go open and na trashings we go dey receive. Even european scouts know most of the youngster we parade are actually matured men buh continue to tolerate our folly.

Edopesin:
If it comes down to pace, it cannot be used because as you rightly said Musa is faster than a lot of our players and he is old, it's not unusual to see old but fast players

If you want believe he's 23 then by all means but the pictures I see don't look like a 23 year old and I might be wrong

TheSuperNerd:
Don't mind the little man. An inferior mind who always speak ostentatiously about himself in a bid to always seek attention and who thinks he must have a say in anything even when his knowledge on the matter in indepth is Zero and flawed. That's a man with self esteem issues and one in desperate need of validation from others. It is well.

TheSuperNerd:
Yes my good man. TSV Hartberg is an Austrian Bundesliga Top flight team.

komekn:
When l said he would get a EPL club I got digs abuse here.

TheSuperNerd:
Samson Tijani in action recently for TSV Hartberg

Played the whole 90mins. Wears Jersey #8.

IDENNAA:
Do you also have pink curtains and blankets ??

Lol...just checking

mkrest:
that's bad.... and a bit not bad

TheLoneCitizen:
Even though he improves, he needs that bench treatment for confidence sake..

He has played well in every game even this game, but he keeps missing chances.

jihday:
Maja scores

TheSuperNerd:
Clubless for now.

TheSuperNerd:
Matthew Yakubu, GK (21 yrs) kept his third clean sheet of the league season yesterday as his side SKF Sered secured a 2-0 away win at Trnava.

Sered currently sit third in the Slovakian Top flight (Fortuna Super Liga) table.

I believe he has cemented himself as their Number 1 "safehands" for the season. A lad to watch.




This is him below.

*Also, was fourth choice and dropped for the Poland 2019 U-20 WC. We went with the GK trio of Jonathan Zaccala, Olawale Premade, and Detan Ogundare.

Compare the way he has been looked at to Nwakali and quite a few others.

Consider the amount of attention given to him as well.

Danielnino00:
So, birth certificates are now useless??

komekn:
Was he given euphoric accolades or rather aspersions.

Don't be hypocritical.

Philosopher1979:
WHY A LATVIAN TEAM WILL WIN THE CHAMPIONS LEAGUE

It may sound Absurd but a Latvian team may win the champions league one day.
They are sourcing talents from football Academies in Nigeria and Africa.
Africans are genetically talented for sports.
This is how France used diasporan Africans to win the world cup.
There are now many Nigerian players flocking there at an alarming rate.
These Nigerian players are good but raw. What will happen in Latvia is that they
will simply refine then and win Uefa or the Champions League with them.
Africa's inability to manage human resources is funny. Other countries see it and take advantage.
The difference between home grown Africans and diasporan Africans (who were born in Europe) is
just the training and exposure.
This is probably why Valmeria does not want to sell Tolu Arokodare. They want to fill their team with blacks, win things with them and peharps naturalize them to play for the national team.
I dont know but we Africans dont know how to harness, use or develop talent. Human resources is something we dont understand

TheSuperNerd:
That was Elder Kog45.

komekn:
He is 27 not 37.

It's so obvious the level of blatant Hypocrisy and double standard we have here.

TheSuperNerd:
Well, the Oliver Twist story ended well for him.


But naah... If he says no, we move. Says yes, he is welcome.

komekn:
He went on loan to Getafe, did he make an outstanding impression to generate interest for a permanent move.

I really can't say, only time will tell.

Edopesin:
Onomah >>> Winks

I honestly don't know what they see in Winks

TheSuperNerd:
Naah.... Nothing close to my worst fear. Just a concern coz I fancy the lad. But won't lose sleep if he does go England's way shaa coz we got loads of fine options and the latest acquisitions we got bring smiles to my lips.

But I am greedy. I still want Saka.

Edopesin:
Only Southgate rates him obviously

mostob:
England just pack Right full backs inside team. Walker, Arnold and trippier. Saka wants to play as a winger and judging from this squad, he won't displace anybody there.Ings, Kane,Greenwood, Foden ,Rashford All the best for Tammy
BTW , where is Tomori.

Barryseal:
Saka and Grealish couldn't have replaced anyone on the list. Yeah?
Hopefully, this edges Saka closer to the Super Eagles.
Saka...... Osimhen...... Chukwueze front 3 will surrender many international defenders.
The world is not ready
