Oasis007:


I don't have strength to argue on this Bro! He's better off as a Winger...... EOD.

Yeah! He is better off as a winger but doesn't mean he hasn't done well as a SS. That's fact.

Humility017:
Don't know why some countries are just blessed with good goal keepers...
that Italy under 20 goal keeper should be signed by Arsenal at least to replace Peter Cech

We suppose get good goalkeepers but our greedy coaches just dey find money instead of talent.

Humility017:
exactly what's the essence of this commonwealth membership...
even England can't give an exception for the possession of work permit...for a person that earn over 25k pounds per month.

such a person should be eligible for work permit.... at least it makes for flexibility

We gain nothing from it. How many African countries have even hosted commonwealth games?

They rotate it among themselves.

I want us to renegotiate our membership or withdraw from it.

However, I thought someone said Ndidi got work permit due to his salary.

Oasis007:
Simon is Winger, some Arguments ain't worth it to be honest. It's a fantasy expecting Simon to thrive as an AM or a SS. He's better off as a Winger.

The best we've got now is Iwobi. Mikel ain't mobile as he was when he came into limelight, thus we've got to rely on Iwobi as a creative Player in the Squad.

He is not that bad as a SS but as an AMF, no.

iSlayer:
Let me keep a cool head.



Okay, I've heard you. Hazard is the world's best Attacking Midfielder. Simon Moses will take over from Hazard.

If your head hot na your head.

Who is saying Hazard is the world best AMF and who is saying Simon Moses is even an AMF?

You seem to lack basic comprehension.

iSlayer:
Today you're a Chelsea fan tomorrow you're a Liverpool fan, all for trolling sake.


Hazard at Chelsea plays at LWF in a 4-3-3/3-4-3 or LMF in a 4-5-1. Never at AMF.

I am a fan of both teams.


Despite showing you facts you still keep lying to yourself. Where are your facts?


Hazerd at Chelsea played AMF several times. Facts don't lie but you lied.

benitochakone:
Maybe he has an Italian passport... Just sayin. Am sure the club would have done its home work before agreeing any deal

Oh! That's a good one then. He is good to go.

CoolJulian:
Iwobi is the best option for that attacking midfield,though he doesn't seem completely convincing,he tires out easily....fact is,he still has time on his hands to perfect that role.

The AM role is therefore the least competitive and calls for worry. I just cannot seem to notice anyone who can play that role to perfection. Perhaps,they are somewhere,but haven't somehow been discovered.

I disagree that Simon be tried out cos he doesn't seem to necessarily possess the attributes. As for Etebo,I knew from day one that that position couldn't be his. I think his physicality flattered a lot of people.

Eze and Onomah should have been tried before AFCON but Rohr wants to be loyal to his boys.

benitochakone:
Southampton have agreed a £13.5m deal to sign Nigerian striker David Okereke from Serie B side Spezia. According to The Sun newspaper today.

Is he eligible for work permit?

I don't know what we are gaining from being a commonwealth member.

I just believe England wants to Lord over us.

timay:
If you're trying to say Hazard is selfish, well I agree, and he's selfish with good end product. And more so, being selfish is relative, cos Hazard has his goals and high number of assist to show for it. What does Simon have to show for his selfishness, nothing, except for wastefulness.

And second point, if you are trying to say that Hazard can't cross the ball, then you are a joker that needs not to be taken seriously.

Lastly Hazard is a true and true winger, not AMF. He has never at any point played as an AMF.

the only position I know he has played is the False 9 position, which he played sometimes under Chelsea former coach, Conte

You don't know anything about Hazard or Chelsea yet you are pretending to know. As a fan, I want Hazard out because he is a spoiler and at the same time a redeemer.

If you are a Chelsea fan, you go know wetin we know.

iSlayer:
He is a winger. He's only being tried as wingback because he's not awesome as a winger but he puts in a good defensive shift. Automatically, any coach will consider such player for a wingback role. Personally, I strongly dislike such though. It hampers their development as an attacker.

He has played as a wingback on few occasions.

timay:
They think AMF role is about gra gra and running aimlessly.

They want people that can't even cross accurately and are very selfish on the ball to come and play attacking midfield role. People that'll rather dribble into a tight corner instead of releasing passes to a striker Making a fine run, thereby messing up the run of play.

May be they think the role is only about aimless running and dribbling though.

These are the attributes of Harzard and he is an AMF/Winger.

zoboizee:
Experimenting players prior to a major competition in a position they are not well familiar with is a recipe for failure. Aigbogun did it with most of his players recently. Rohr by now should have been well acquainted with the right personnel for various positions in his team. The standard is 23 players. Of which he is to have probably;

3 -Goalkeepers
4 -Centre backs
2 -Rightbacks
2- Leftbacks
4 -Defensive midfielders
2 -Attacking midfielders
2 -Right wingers
2 -Left wingers
2 -Strikers

It is one of the reasons the team oftentimes inspired less confidence in matches because they tend to struggle. Making players jack of all trade & master of none really devalue their qualities.

Iwobi is the only one that can atleast try in the AMF hence three strikes should be considered.

OMANBALA1:
Firstly, I dont like the country called england and queen eliza and their over-hyped players that never worth a sshhit. But I am neither sentimental nor bias....I am yet to see an English groomed player that blew my mind. I meant those who have played for Nigeria. From Abbey George, Sodje , Ekoku, etc.

Victor Moses nko?

Icon4s:
It is a norm for national teams to play players out of their natural positions.

There are certain situations in which a team will have deficiency in a certain position(s) rather than Fielding an incompetent greenhorn there they would rather convert a well talented player to fill that position.

U saw Ronaldo and Nani play as top strikers in the last Euros. David Alaba also played as an AM in that tournament.

As u cannot buy players for the national teams u have to make optimal use of the personnel u have available.

But that only happens when you don't have an option.

In this case, we have options in Eze and Onomah and I think they should be given the chance to prove themselves after the nations cup.

OMANBALA1:
You are crazy....Most people think I have no emotion. 90% of the people on this thread know Iwobi has not solve our midfielder problems. EOD.

Na true. As if you say you know get heart.

Fine. Iwobi has not really solved it but we don't need a makeshift Moses in that role.

It's too late to experiment.

It's better we bring Eze and Onomah after the tournament.

OMANBALA1:
Right now, I dont care where he goes but one thing is certain....Iwobi on GWG has not lived up to expectations and we have other hungrier players.

You are not being objective but emotive and sentimental.

TheGoodJoe:
You have a point. Maybe, that is why Emery is thrilled with his style of play. Either way, Emery is brilliant and is doing a good job with Iwobi. I say Iwobi hangs on.

He can stay as long as he's wanted but I think he is a skillful player who needs freedom to express himself like his uncle.

Anyway, no problem he stays with Emery.

OMANBALA1:
I strongly believe that brother can excel in that position....think about it, he has the skill, the midfield energy requirements and can stay the course and highly disciplined. That nigga will run circles around Iwobi.....Its injustice to play Iwobi while Simon is on the bench. Its becoming clear Iwobi is gonna be another failed English groomed player.

How did you know Iwobi will fail?

I think the EPL doesn't suit his style. He should move to La Liga or Seria A.

Humility017:
An AM should be a good passer of the ball
someone that can comfortably link the midfield with the attack...

some one that can retain and release the ball quickly...when necessary.
some one that can give deadly pass and spot a striker well positioned from a distance....

that is an AM...

so can Moses Simon play this role?
the answer is NO..

I agree.

OMANBALA1:
Simon Moses excelled as a wing forward in training. Until they play him as a AM I think he will never achieve his full potentials. Simon Moses is not a traditional winger , I think he was born to play in the middle due to his ability to operate in small spaces, energy and discipline....Everything Iwobi lacks!

He can play as a second striker but I doubt if he can play AMF.

OMANBALA1:
Who and who is expired?

Torres

M7even:
The way u like to emphasize on 25 million pound KC is what I don't understand. There was a certain Fernando Torres of Chelsea who was largely a full time flop at Chelsea when he switched from Liverpool. You can now deceitfully, circumvent fact by saying he scored the goal that took Chelsea to the finals. Give the nigga that time to score the goal that keeps leceister in the premier league after they find themselves in relegation battle this coming season

Torres flopped in EPL with Chelsea but did well in Europe.


Chelsea bought expired product from Liverpool without knowing but prior to that, he was very consistent for years.

andrew444:
Where was lukaku played at chelsea? he was a striker nah, with just 10 epl games and few minutes and they want him to perform, chelsea fans sha

On the wings. If you no get liver Chelsea fit destroy your career.

andrew444:
Call players bros

You just dey call them one one dey go search google, as you current reach for football you no remember to call de bruyne abi?

As one who knows about Chelsea I can tell you three but I think you are just trying to stress me or you don't know.

andrew444:
Na only lukaku ? The way you talk be like say dem plenty

Abeg mention more

Besides lukaku first suffer for Chelsea bench

Lukaku was played out of position and he wasn't given chance to prove himself.

I remembered many Chelsea fans thought he was a bad player but I disagreed because I already knew him in Belgium as a monster before he came to EPL.

andrew444:
Na only lukaku you remember abi?

Meanwhile daniel agger came from denmark league and went to be one of the best defenders in the epl during his time

Fellani. Do you want more?

Certitude:
Aina has 4 in this rating. POORER than Ebuehi

Aina played only 5 minutes and had 4 in his rating but Ebuehi who played 90 minutes had 5 in his rating.

Who was POORER? Ebuehi of course.

You lied Aina never performed in GWG but fact was presented to disapproved your claims yet came up with this.

Keep deceiving yourself with your emotive bias sentimental reasons but facts don't lie.

andrew444:
All these ones are already world class before leaving the English league

Can you call the average ones ?

So many players have come from others league and ended up being world class at England

They are all from EPL.

komekn:
Lukaku came into Chelsea as an 18 year old didn't play and after getting stale and denied opportunity, he was never going to replace Drogba.

He went on loan to West Bromwich the rest is now history.

He played. Lukaku has been scoring double digit goals consistently in the EPL.

A Manchester United striker and currently sought for by Inter Milan. The story never finish.

andrew444:
Please name the Belgium pro league players

How can andrew444 don't know?

komekn:
Mainly the creme de La creme of that league although l don't recall many strikers making the step up from the Belguim league to the EPL and being outstanding.

Lukaku
