Mickael2:
the coach that wanted Onazi(Redknapp) has been fired. Onazi is going to stay there for a longer time

Hahaha! You mean em go tey for there.

Joebie:
Likewise Olaitan, Isaac Success, Ramon Azeez etc in terms of playing at the "highest" level and being noticed.

Like I said, we always hope for the development of these youngsters.

Big money transfer don't say everything.

Red carded twice in a short time for a defender, don't that tell you something? Ilori is still developing. Don't put him where he hasn't gotten to yet because of a couple weekly stat.

The same championship is where the likes of Ighalo excelled. You can't rubbish the championship because of Ilori. I will not change the goal post. Whoscored stats is very reliable. I see how it changes even during live games. various aspects of player's performance is considered. If you have played few matches it can count to your advantage still. I have given you their ratings so far this season. Let's keep monitoring it.

Oga! Olaitan case na heart issue not talent. Before the heart problem he was doing very well.

Despite playing regularly in the Champions league Keshi refused to hand him an invitation.


Na who tell you say Success finish? Na so talent dey Finnish!?.

Ramon case na em club refused to sell him or allow him go for free to EPl.

In short, Almeria forced him to renew his contract with dem before he was restored to the first team. Before then, he was relegated to the feeders team for almost a season.


Are you following Chelsea's games this season?

How many of their defenders have received red card?

So, because they received red card tells a lot abi!?

Tiago Ilori received red card once this season. Where did you get twice?

Tiago Ilori did not fluke hu way into those couple of week stat. He deservingly earned them due to his noticeable class and quality after the games against Barcelona and PSG.

It can't be rubbished na. Just like that.

Big money transfer does not say anything!?

Ask PSG, Real Madrid, Mou etc they will tell you something.


Ighalo started somewhere in Spain. No bi Championship help am.

I maintain that Championship na kwatankwa type of football compared to more technical league...

The Spanish LA liga is the most beautiful league to watch. Followed by the Seria A.

If some of the best from these aforementioned leagues go to the championship dem go dey useless.

edi287:
Forget about Illori.. that one is out of reach. I doubt if he's ever watched a SE game in his life.

How do you know all these?

Joebie:
Two years ago is a while ago. Is he injured now? Why the limited time? And please don't forget to stress those best XIs were weekly stats.

Like I said they are all in the championship. We can easily monitor them - many thanks to whoscored. At least we have some good stats as a yardstick.

It doesn't change the fact that when he had the chance to play at the highest level he was noticed. Simple!

We know Messi may fumble in the kwatankwa championship kind of football.

Which limited time?

So, you didn't see he played all their first three matches before the red card?

Out of 7 matches he missed 4. 2 due to red card and 2 due to reasons best known to the coach.

You can't keep your most valuable player on the bench for no reason na.

Tiago Ilori is the most expensive player Reading fc ever bought.


The highest transfer fee received for a Reading player is the £7 million 1899 Hoffenheim paid for Gylfi Sigurðsson on 31 August 2010.[ 1][8] The most expensive player Reading have ever bought is Tiago Ilori, for £3,750,000 from Liverpool on 18 January 2017.

Joebie:
he made whoscored's best XI in Spain in one of those weeks, about 3 YEARS AGO. Take note, they are all now in the Championship. So let's make that comparison now, or at least during the course of the current season -- fair enough. Ramon Azeez was once voted the best youngster in the whole of a season in the La Liga. So does that now make him class?
With these youngsters, we always hope for their development. Michael Olaitan also comes to mind.

And please Aina is not the best right back in the championship.
I have the whoscored Championship best XI here for this season so far.

That's right! He made the best 11 in the LA liga despite limited playing time 3 years ago, and he also made best XI in ligue 1 just two years ago despite injuries and limited playing time.

sarrki:
I don't know why some people are too cunning

When did ipobs turned Igbo ?..

Ipobs are criminal elements

Ipobs are now terrorist organization

I now know why ipobs behaves like the way they did

I now understand why KANU failed

For FFK to be KANU adviser then KANU must fail

Oga, don't be fooled. Igbo is Ipob, Ipob is Igbo.

Na wa oooo.

Joebie:
Shehu as well. I'm sure he is a super regular Who else are you missing?

Haha! DAT one no dey my agenda.

Mickael2:
Mikel, Etebo, Ogu and a lot of others guys are regulars too. the only two exemptions I can think about are Onazi and Elderson, easy to figure out why they are the weak link

Yeah! You're right but I think Onazi's club is aware that his heart is no longer in the club and he will be gone in Jan hence the need not to put their mind on him.

Joebie:
Alex Iwobi, third best today - versus Chelsea - in pass success rate.

Iwobi, Ndidi, Balogun, Troost, Ebuechi, Moses, Simon and Ighalo are the only super eagle's player playing regularly and doing very well in their various clubs.

Joebie:
Tammy will play for Nigeria

How u take know

komekn:
From the age of 15 Tega was the most technically gifted player in Tottenham's academy right up to the U23's he is now getting much needed game time in the championship.

I can see he is full of swagger and tricks but are we still able to lure him to play for us?

Same question for Solanke.

komekn:
Indeed his performances have exceeded those who have far more game time than him. He has been voted best right back in the championship several times.

His situation is unique Chelsea with its world class stars makes it very difficult if not near impossible for a young player to get an opportunity in the first team.

Consider Tega Abrahams first season in professional football in the Championship becomes arguably best striker in the Championship.

So game time cannot exceed pure quality and class.

Ilori for his very limited game time in England is still far behind Dominic Iorfa and Aina.

Yes! Game time can't exceed pure quality and class. In this case again Ilori is still far ahead of Dominic Iorfa and Aina(best right back in the 'championship') because with the little game time Ilori had in the Spanish LA liga he showed pure quality and class when he made the LA liga team of the weekweek (best CB in La liga) ahead of some of the best defenders in the world. Agreed!?

Remember, he didn't stop at that, he was listed twice on the best young talent of the week.

Now, be sincer. Which do you prefer btw best right back player in the championship or team of the week and best young talent of the week?

Joebie:
ITALY Serie A:

Torino 2-2 Sampdoria
Sadiq Umar makes Torino's matchday squad, but fails to take part in the home draw.
Joel Obi still out due to injury.

GERMANY Bundesliga:

Hoffenheim 1-1 Hertha Berlin
Jordan Torunarigha missing from Hertha's squad.

Sadiq is up against Beloti. How can he play?

Di's d time to lure Jordan to play for us.

Joebie:
Awoniyi score. Olayinka's sees yellow.

Mouscron lead waregem away

How many goals and assists does he have this season?

Awoniyi seems to adapt to the Belgian league.

komekn:
There are some of them, can I say, I have come across if not them thier agents and or both. I would say at U18 level they were all NAIJA come first in thier identity and engagement.

It really hinges on long term engagement and relationship, that is at the core of the matter.

For instance let's say I have three of these boys I have spoken too them. I have sold the Nigerian project to them they accept. I then inform the NFF or I speak to Amaju we then begin to play politics of what's in it for me and them. Straightaway they loose thier affinity for Naija and become dissapointed.

I have a principle in life which governs all my relationships, which is how do you treat people who have nothing to offer and or repay you. That is your true character.

We should have been the first to discover Tega before he began to Blow. Invited him to camp made him feel welcome.

We should not wait for England to recognise them before we do. There is something perverse about a stranger welcome you to his house and showing you love and hospitality before your own family.

If you go the London premiership academies it's not a question of who is Nigerian. But what % of the academy is Nigerian from age grade 6 to 23. The older they get the more the athletic prowess of our boys becomes more pronounced. From 15- 23 the % become higher � even more. So how are we engaging them as it stands right now.


Iorfa, Ojo, Onomah if approached correctly right now will play for Nigeria.

My eyes are on Onomah. This boy is a beast.

Iorfa and Ojo are also very good.


Tega is going going going.....

komekn:
Dominic Iorfa is fast big strong but not technically astute compared to Aina.

In this regard Dominic is built for the physicality, high tempo and intensity of the Championship and for the less technical teams in the premiership.

Consider Mick Mcarthy (Ipswich Manager) and his football ethos which is essentially kick and rush. Iorfa in my opinion would do well if he can improve his anticipation and positional sense as a center back. I rate him considerably higher than Ilori.

Forget pedigree and compare him to Ilori in terms of games played and Ilori is far far behind him.

None of them in my opinion is anywhere near the quality of Aina with regards to wing back play.

In regards to wing back play, I agree they are nowhere near Aina's quality but in regards to CB, Bros, those two players are ahead.

In terms of game played, Aina is still a learner compared with Ilori.

How many professional matches does Aina have under his belt in his whole football career?

junnyjake:
Until then! Until then my boss.

Hahaha! OK na. We are watching.

Joebie:
I agree. Lorfa has been a regular since moving from Wolves to Ipswich.
I will like to see how he competes with the like of Tomori and Aina.

Tomori, Ilori and Lorfa are CBs. Therefore, they are to compete with Aweriam and Agbo not Aina.

Joebie:
Actually he's got a fair chance in the past. Let's hope the coach starts pulling him off the bench.

5 minutes chances per game will do him no good.

I want to hear him play full matches or or half matches.

Joebie:
We need to go for Felix Uduokhai and Jordan Torunarigha.

In addition, Tiago Ilori and Dominic Irhofa.

Joebie:
Bundesliga:

Bayern Munich 4-0 FSV Mainz05
Of course Bayern beat the hell out of Mainz. Balogun was on from start to finish for Mainz.

Stuttgart 1-0 Wolfsburg

Felix Uduokhai (Wolfsburg) completed the encounter from the start.
Victor Osimhen was back in Wolfsburg's bench, but was not introduced.

I am beginning to get worried for Osimhen due to lack of game time.

When will his club begins to play him?

I hope it will not be the same case with Chrisantus who was never giving the chance to prove himself with his bunsusliga team.

junnyjake:
sorry!!!

There's no place for Ibe in our present team.

Rorh would consider Bonaventure, olayinka, onyekuru before him.

We can only wish him the best as he continues to wait for England to look his way.

some people no get chill sha.

So, if Ibe scores 20 goals and gives 15 assists in the premier league, and if he signifies interest to play for his father's land, una go still consider the aforementioned players ahead of him ba?

Best way to cool tension.

Pesuzok:
I guess you stay in SW

Currently in Aba.

Kingharzyz:
Its not a fake news.... You guys should keep it up we observing.

Please, do note that there are many Yorubas in Abia State especially Aba and the indigenous people of the land is aware, and can differentiate.

In addition, the Westerners are not their target neither those of other regions save/except the army or what they term Hausa/Fulani army.

It is very mischievous to say they attacked the Westerners when it's glaring that is not the case because as I write unto you many Westerners feel safe in Aba and they go about without being molested or attacked.

The mosque is not a Yoruba mosque because other people from different regions including the Igbo Muslims uses the mosque.

Please, desist from instigating attacks on the Westerners which could cause lose of any precious life.

Disclaimer: mods pull down this misleading and provocative thread else it could help to propagate the course of the devil to fuel ethnic cleansing on both sides. Thanks

Interesting!

BascoVanVeli:
Enoch Mwepu is just about their best player and he is not a winger. He is the main creative force in the team. In the U20 world cup Zambia could not beat a 10 man Italy after his injury.

All their goals came from the wings. They can't play from the middle.

Rohr Plots Super Eagles’ Game Plan With Zambia Videos

https://www.completesportsnigeria.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/08/Super-Eagles-Just-Win.jpg

By David Meshioye:

Gernot Rohr has commenced close study of two Zambia’s Match footages ahead of Nigeria’s crunch 2018 World Cup qualifier against Chipolopolo’s in Uyo on October 7, Completesportsnigeria.com reports.


Super Eagles’ Media Officer Toyin Ibitoye told Completesortsnigeria.com that the former Burkina Faso coach is leaving no stone unturned to ensure Zambia are flattened like Cameroon at Goodwill Akpabio Stadium.


Towards this end, Rohr has began a closer study of Zambia-Algeria double-header videos, admitting that the two matches confirmed Chipolopolo’s resurgence in Group B.


” I can confidently tell you that Super Eagles coach is seriously busy with the two Zambia’s games footages,” Ibitoye told Completesportsnigeria.com.

” Rohr has been studying the tapes with his backroom staff, with the aim of coming up with the right tactics for the game.

” All hands must be on deck, Zambia will not be taken lightly.”


Nigeria lead Group B with 10 points but would need an outright win over Zambia to guarantee her third straight World Cup qualification after matchday 5.

On the other hands, Zambia need to dig deep for a win in Uyo to take final group matches to the wire.

Zambians love playing from the wings. Block the wings and mark out their wingers, then they will runout of ideas.

There is a way you mark to slow down a player.

Joel Obi injured after a fantastic start to the season.

Na wa ooooooo.

TonyeBarcanista:
Now I am clear... But the Ibadan summit actually referenced 1963 Constitution which I frown at...

The 1963 Constitution recognises 4 (instead of 6) regions and lumped all North as one.

It makes referendum cumbersome, it took the grace of God for Midwest to be given theirs.

It doesn't represent the wish of Niger Delta people for control of our resources that will see us pay royalties to the center instead of take from the center. The latter makes us subservient to whoever controls the center just like it was in 1960s and now, but the latter gives us the autonomy we seek...

It place control of security units (police) in the hands of the center, an arrangement that has never worked. All 6/7 regions should have their police force. The Centre should only be concerned with Defence (military).

It is about Parliamentary system, this form of government has been overly abused though I wouldn't mind a return to it.

Which grace of God?

They requested for it in 1963 and got it immediately in the same year?

So, what is grace are you talking about?
