Gary Cahill was the weakest link in Chelsea defence line last season. He was so poor that people like me started questioning how he became Chelsea's captain. Is it because he plays for England? Well, your guess is as good as mine.

Dele Alli had a fantastic season but to compare him with Kevin DeBruyne is ridiculous.

Alexis Sanchez is a more complete footballer than Harry Kane. There's no contest.

I never made a case that Moses ought to be included in the list, simply because I knew that Kyle Walker was the best RB in EPL last season.

My man that's the EPL team of the year list so no debate.

I can only make case for Aguero but not forgetting that Lukaku had a great season with average Everton.Last season was awesome for Dele Ali and better than DeBryune.Nobody would picked Alex Sanchez over Harry Kane.Cahil was all there doing it for Chelsea.

On Vic Moses he had a better player in that position in Kyle Walker who had a great season with Tottenham that made Pep to splash cash on him.

Listen, I don't care who voted for whom. I watched a vast majority of the games myself. And it would take a suspension of disbelief to convince me that Dele Alli was better than Kevin DeBruyne last season. No one can tell me that Gary Cahill was better than Virgil Van Djik last season.

If you noticed, this was the PFA team of the season. The players themselves voted for their peers who stood out during the season.
It doesn't get more authentic than this.

Omo, think (or shall we say READ) before you talk/post. Go back and check my posts, I was probably the first person who stated clearly during this discussion that Mo Salah, Mane, and Auy are better players than VicMo.

But the point I was trying to make on my last post has nothing to do with Mane v VicMo or anything. I was just evaluating the EPL players of the season and my conclusion was, based on what I saw (and I watched more than 80% of all EPL matches last season, including 100% of all matches featuring the top teams), some of the players selected have no business making the team. And I listed names plus the names of the players who could've been selected instead.

Again, next time read before you respond because I don't like to repeat myself.

Jarus:
Oga, more than 500 EPL players that did the voting know better than you. They knew Moses before considering Mane for EPL 11.

World coaches and captains that picked Mane among top 30 in the world knew Moses before choosing Mane.

But you sitting behind your TV thinks he did better than Mane.

Classic!

Couldn't have put it any better myself. Remind me to give you a fat wet kiss when you get home tonight!

Solanke's case is similar to the Buy One Get One Free tactic, the English FA were moving for Tammy solely, then someone in the FA must have said

" Ay mait, what say we swoop in for that other Nigerian lad, what's his name?"

Komekn from the background "Solanke?"

"Yeah, that one. Been all over the Nigerian media too, we're going for Tammy, might as well cut them off on two sides"

Southgate "I don't think I need Solanke on my team"

"He doesn't have to be on your team, we just don't want either of them on the Nigerian team. Those bloody bastards got three of our guys already" he takes a bite from his muffin


And so, the regretful Solanke call-up happened. So sad my guy doesn't realise he's been royally played


That is the end of the story

So Gary Cahill made the EPL team of the year? While Virgil van Djik didn't make it? And neither did Sergio Aguero, or Alexis Sanchez. While Harry Kane and Lukaku were included? And Dele Alli made it ahead of Kevin DeBryune??

Tells you everything you need to know.

If it was a girl that reported such nearly happening to her, what do you think the male folk will say.

Actually, Zidane didn't score a lot of goal. He was just your old fashioned playmaker. As a matter of fact, goal scoring only came to become all in all in this day of Cristiano Ronaldo because that's the only way they could possibly justify giving him the awards ahead of Messi.

Add to that, he is not even playing in a top league, I mean, really, do you know the kind of shitty strikers he's up against? Can you compare them to the likes of Messi, Aguero, Modric or Rakitic?

Please, let's focus on begging Enyeama to come back, we shouldn't lose hope because we cannot field an inexperienced baby goalie for something as important as the World Cup

Huh

Did you quote the wrong post? I didn't say anything about Cristiano Ronaldo in the post you quoted


O pari

Chrismario:
It is either Ronaldo thief your gf or he make you lose big money for bet9ja.

Actually, her point is that you have to be a prolific scorer to win the awards (not to get nominated). I mean, getting nominated is irrelevant here because VicMo was nominated as well. The argument was why he wouldn't win.


O pari

blueto:
You didn't actually get point. I stated it to confute the notion that it was all about goalscoring. He he was named ahead of some fantabulous goalscorers, so I think it was apt to mention such achievement considering the context. And besides, he won the prestigious 2017 PFA Player of the Year award and it seems you advertently left that out.

The bottom line is that those 3 players: Mane, Salah, and Aubameyang are better than Moses. However, if we are going by Cristiano Ronaldo standard then VicMo should win it but none of the other players won any silverwares last season.

Nigeria’s Head coach, Gernot Rohr, says he needs just four ‘stronger’ players in the Super Eagles to complete his team for the Russia 2018 World Cup.

Speaking in Germany last week, Rohr said it is not fair if critics continue to take aim at his goalkeepers for not being good enough for the World Cup.
”We are looking at the World Cup and it is not gamely if people express concerns about the goalkeepers. With the goalkeepers we defeated strong teams during the qualifiers. I have that experience of this level, qualifying through Africa zone is much tougher in Africa and we took the goalkeepers to face a strong fire-force of Argentina”

In fact, Rohr said what he was looking to add are four players who he believe can give the team a steelier outlook.
”We are looking at the team all-round but because we need a rhythm, we shall be looking for just four players to improve the team. If we can be successful with them, then we are ready for the World Cup.
The Franco-German added that the Nigerian team, being the youngest going to the World Cup are looking beyond Russia 2018.

”We want a smart appearance at Russia but this project does not end here. We believe we can empower young Nigeria players to do well in international and continental football, so that is why I tell the Federation that we need a long-term plan for the Eagles which include a good preparation for AFCON 2019.

Well, let's hope that they do

GWAM!!! Serves her right! I wish it would always work out that way.

You'd be surprised how frequently that craps happens. A number of my friends have been propositioned. And one of my friends who's a part-time Private Investigator (PI) took it upon himself to investigate the case and tried to convince the woman that the man wasn't cheating. But guess what? She still insisted in going ahead with the "revenge fvck". Pathetic

when women cheat for revenge they do it on the lowest degree of slutiness possible.she figures the sluttier the more its gonna hurt u her man. its so fvcked up coz its true.it does hurt. but a pained heart will always be better than an incurable disease

lol.....the words of a Messi fan can nwverf be taken seriously in such things

Nne, you made a good point that these days strikers (goal scorers) are favored in winning those awards. The keyword being "winning". And some clown came out of nowhere to argue that Kante came 8th!

I mean, how's that relevant to the point you made (or were tryna make)


O pari o for NL

safarigirl:
lol....anything is better than nothing

The funny thing is that Cristiano has never even been compared with the other greats. He's only (always) been compared to Messi, mostly by Messi's detractors. The debate about the greatest of all time always ends with Pele, Maradona, and Messi.

There's one thing that differentiate the three: they are all know with one NAME. Something like Cristiano Ronaldo wouldn't belong on that list


O pari

Mujtahida:
Between Messi, Ronaldo and other greats I'd rather not choose any of them. But between Messi and Ronaldo, I'd rather choose Messi. He's the more naturally gifted. He was born to play. Ronaldo used brawn, determination and will power to make himself into award winning footballer. He plays for the awards.

Since when did the 7th runner up (the 7th loser) became the winner

Sometimes some of y'all strike me as .... (*abeg, lemme swallow*)

Kante (defensive/centre midfielder) was recently named 8th the best player in the world according to Ballon D'or organizers. He won it ahead of great goal scorers like Harry Kane, Kevin De Bruyne, Eden Hazard and others. He also who the 2017 PFA Player of the Year award . So your point isn't entirely true. it is not all about goal scoring but it might still be the dominant factor anyway.

Check again, Nigeria v Poland game is on Joebie's list. I think he was asking why we're not play two friendly matches within that window, like the other countries. Hopefully, the NFF would schedule another friendly.
