If I were chukwueze, I would advise he chooses Liverpool. He has a better chance of playing more there and he will surely improve under Klopp

Hanibal:
So you'll advice Samu to go from being one of the first names on the team sheet to not making match day squads just so that he can "soak" in knowledge ehn
Let me add that what fans of sexy football like yourself call "football knowledge " domiciled in your beloved coaches like Guardiola, Rogers, Tuchel and the likes is actually boring to some of us... Some of us actually find Guardiola's style too scientific, too dogmatic to be exciting.
Some of us find a match where one team has 70% of the ball boring, some of us hate it when one coach buys the whole planet and win all available trophies.
Heck some us find it boring when one team wins the league with 5games to spare.
No ,we are not enemies of success or whatever you'll call it, we just love football to be competitive, breathtaking, unpredictable.
My point is not every soccer player is built to play the "Guardiola way", if a player that isn't built for Guardiola (especially when he is African) decides to sign for a Guardiola team... My brother, that will amount to career suicide.we've lost Iheanacho on the alter of Guardiola's overly scientific football, Samu doesn't need his type of knowledge to have a successful career.

The robotic system is actually the brilliance. They break down the complex nature of the game into a simple formula.

Under 20 player,

19 year old Henry Offia..

God help us.

BascoVanVeli:
Did arsenal release Ovie Ejeria? Didn't they call him back? There have been tons of kids called back by their clubs if you say this is strange then you are lying. This is the time that youth competitions are getting hot a Chelsea youth won't be looking for a competition to play in because they are there enough.

tbaba1234:
Big scandal surrounding Aigbogun. I hear from reliable sources that players are paying between 2 million and 10 million to join the under 20 team to the WC. It is really tragic what i have heard.

ANS is reporting it as well.

BascoVanVeli:
By getting assurance before releasing their player. That's if they would have released him at all.

BascoVanVeli:
And you too u believe Chelsea will allow a player with such godly numbers come and sit on the bench? Keep in my the source of the information is his agent.

isan:
choose your 2 for AFCON

ChrisKels:
Good, so tell me, how would u know there were no better players since he decided to limit his scouting to Lagos? What happened to his 2013 format that birthed our best U17 crop? U dont expect a poor 15/16year old kid from Akwa Ibom, Enugu, PH, Owerri, Aba, Asaba, Umuahia, Onitsha etc to embark on a journey to far away Lagos, do you? U know the cost, the dangers and all. Last time Manu tested success he had camps in almost all the 6goeoolotical zones for proximity purpose, hence giving every kid a chance. How many Academies did he visit outside Lagos abi Nigeria revolves around Lagos? Mind u dis isnt about tribe or religion buh, zone, hence even the Igbo/igboid names u see on his list were not brought up in the SE buh Lagos and its environs. He picked most of his players from Lagos Academies and I even read an Academy has about five of their players in that team. This aint just laziness, Manu is on something. Bros there are cities in Nigeria that u dont joke with bkus they are always there to provide us with abundant quality talents; Jos, Owerri, Enugu, Asaba, Benin, Lagos, Kaduna are the primary cities, hence they deserve some sort of special attentions. From history, naijas best talents have always come from these cities, no disrespect to other cities.



That aside, how do u xplain the treatment he meted on a boy who left a tourney with England u16 for this AYC? Bkus Manu knew there would be no money to make on him, he decided to bench him to display his boys to the scouts for his own selfish interests, knowing full well that we are on a heated battle with the English FA for his services. Not even a minute of a game time to captie him and give him that Sense of belonging.

BascoVanVeli:
He didn't come with as big a reputation like the Chelsea lad. 20+ goals and 10+ assists are no small numbers. Something smells fishy if you ask me

BascoVanVeli:
I have not seen anything to prove that the Chelsea kid is as good as advertised. I have not even seen his stats online. Chelsea should be fuming if the player is that good but not a word from them. Someone might have played a trick on us. Those numbers could be fake.

jihday:
even when he was in a lowly Belgian league his statistics no dey burst head, virtually all our attacking players are either average or below

Utonwanne:
He's not good enough and drafted to defence

Bolowolowo:
This is a man who has appeared in only 17 la Liga games this far.

1 goal.

No assists.

Has only started 23% of the time.

Like several other Nigerian players in Europe, he has just been bang average this season. I truly wish the best for him.

Is it a crime to make objective and truthful statements on this thread

naptu2:
Thank you.

andrew444:
Moses didn't do that bad in the first half

The levante team gave Barca a run for their money in the second half

The few times Moses Simon was with the ball,he was not that bad

Bolowolowo:
So I cannot point out truth?!?! I'm a Super Eagles supporter, but I refuse to blindly worship our players. He was simply average during that game. Nothing less. Nothing more.

Earthquake3:
Villarreal has told the NFF to choose between Afcon and U20 world cup for Chukwueze

Bolowolowo:
Nothing worth mentioning. Average as always.

SerVik:
Without playing up to 5 liga games.

I remember when the news came up that barca wanted to sign ighalo, i said it here that he would only be a stop-gap rotation piece to rest key players and wouldn't see up to 10games. At the time, I knew that was what barca where in the market for.

On here, I was labelled a hater.
Well, the ighalo deal didn't materialize and kpb was the alternative. News flash: he hasn't and won't play up to 10games. Colour me surprised!

tbaba1234:
The foreign based list is not complete.

Nwaorisa , Igor Ogbu etc will join the team in Germany.

The club of the elder Benett refused to release him.

Joebie:
So how did Moses Simon fare today against Barca?

Humility017:
smiles .... Nigeria coaches are corrupt.
forget it pls
