Answer for yourself oga.

This thread is full of monikers with different doings, but we are all still united for the act that we keep coming here

TheSuperNerd:
And this is exactly part of what I address. No one has mentioned Nwakali ahead of anyone. We are just glad he is back tapping leather again after over a year in the wilderness of inactivity. That's all.

Even Rohr and the SE media officer are glad for him. I got wind of that. So we move.

Truth is staring at our faces. Now how could I have meant he didnt get mentions here?

TheSuperNerd:
Cc Sheyishemba

Even Joebie follow hype am. Tipping him to get an invite ahead of an Ejaria.

Funny how he didn't remember what he said what not done. Loln

There are different school of thoughts here. I don’t make generalizations.

We have all hardly done one particular thing or agreed in one thing. So I am not addressing the thread as a whole, but those who place nwakali ahead.

Modified
I will be making a direct comparison going forward.

TheSuperNerd:
Even what you meant is still a lie. Igbekeme was overhyped to the heavens on this very thread several times. Don't act amnesiac like you don't remember b'cos I always would remember such.

And there's no need to compare a player who just made his Segunda debut after more than a year of inactive play and has a different skill set to another who has a couple years of Segunda experience and plays in a different manner. One is a deeplying midfield potential and the other is more of a midfield runner with workrate.

I need not say more.

Na u get ur mind.

But clearly in my mind it meant going forward we have a direct comparison since they both now play in the same league and the same pos. As long as some got that meaning it’s fine by me.

TheSuperNerd:
My clean mind still sees an attempt to play down Nwakali's debut. There was no need to compare a player making his Segunda debut with another who has been playing there for a few seasons. So I guess the one with agenda for making such comparisons is you. Case closed.

The stats says it all. You have to stand out clearly in LaLiga2. That’s the bar I ALSO set for Nwakali. No double standards. Musa Yahaya was arguably one of the most talented players in UAE. I am hopeful of him as much as I am of Nwakali.

jihday:
the reason why I even quoted that post is because after all the hype they've given Igbekeme here, going by that stat he's just an average player. Nothing exciting

Oga u dey confuse me.

ChrisKels:
OK we should be talking about a player who wasn't in action instead of the one who was? What's the definition of sentiment again? Funny people

Dead wrong

This is the post:
It's James Igbekeme VS K. Nwakali. Both CMs and both in Laliga II

Now analyze the post again with a clean mind. Lol

TheSuperNerd:
That shows you that all along he has been out to just make a comparison between both and make it look like we ignore one over the other when all one did was drop a debut report of one. It is funny. Insinuations being exposed. Lol

Hmmm

TheSuperNerd:
Aha! Bringing My Lion Dad into this. Finish what you started.


Okay fine... Na just b'cos you mention My Dad, make I end am here.

Ok sorry bro. My bad

jihday:
I still don't understand, have I ever mentioned Nwakali here? I can't even rate his career yet because he doesn't have any career in senior football. I just commented on Igbekeme's stat you posted I don't know why you went to drag Nwakali into the discuss

My opening lays the context to my post. By the way, I just read sheyishemba post and that was my point. It’s a good thing that K. Nwakali has made his debut. I am hopeful of him like ALL Nigerian players.

TheSuperNerd:
Joebie... K.Nwakali made his debut. Igbekeme didn't play that game. A report was dropped and it shows positive signs that the lad could be making a fine comeback if he builds on this but you obviously had a problem with it b'cos you bring in Igbekeme as if he hasn't been mentioned before. It's not even like anyone is already saying, "Hey Rohr give Nwakali an invite bla bla bla".

It is not hard to tell where one is going with words.

That’s the point. I don’t have to put much effort in my post as long as some like you get it.

sheyishemba:
what I did not know I've been following this thread before 2018 WCQ truly James was mentioned here what he has hyped as nwakali hell no !!!! and mind you he has a better career than nwakali at least the lad has been consistent in the segunda division all this unnecessary attention to nwakali is very lame only 8 minute in segunda division person no hear again biko just stop being delusional, okay ?

Simple question. Will you call Nwakali average in the event that he doesn’t surpass Igbekeme?

jihday:
I don't understand why you'll do that, what's the relationship between both?

Icon4s call ur pikin to order o! Lol

TheSuperNerd:
What route? The route where I burst your insinuations open. What a childish comment. Lol

The keyword is “ahead”. That should be the argument. Who gets mentioned here ahead of the other?

TheSuperNerd:
Then try to be much clearer next time. Saying Igbekeme deserves a mention ahead of Nwakali is very very insinuating. Making it sound like we haven't talked about the Igbekeme lad before or given him plenty attention. Was it even a comparison? Did Igbekeme play in the Huesca vs Mirandes game? Was Igbekeme mentioned in the match report as regards Nwakali's debut?

You just wanted to start unrelated talk. Nothing more.

He’s got his fair mention here, but now we can make a direct comparison

komekn:
He has been playing consistently in the Segunda División for a few seasons. But nobody has mentioned his name.

However, Nwakali that has not played professional football for close to two seasons is a SE prospect after 8 minutes as a substitute in the Segunda División

Is that not super delusional misguided favoritism. Or what else can you call it apart from naked bigoted double standard.

I will quote you if Nwakali fails to surpass him.

jihday:
average player in a poor league

Don’t make insinuations l never implied that.

Modified.
U don start again. You want to go that route again?

TheSuperNerd:
It is funny that even Joebie talks ignorantly. He talks like we haven't given Igbekeme several mentions here. The things I read here ehn... Hahahahahaha. I can see some people here have short term memory.

People just love the boy because of his U17 WC exploits. He is seen as if he still has the potential for greater things. Today, Igbekeme deserves a mention ahead of Kelechi Nwakili, until the latter starts to pull better stats in the same league.

komekn:
The quality of a league is also reflected in the money it can generate to attract players. Essentially good quality players follow indisputably the £££€€€.

How much was spent on transfers in the entire Segunda División this season and look at how much just Fulham spent on transfers.

When you have had a look then we can talk.

This is a players that his entire justification for ability is based on youth football of 5 years ago.

He went to the Eredivisie flopped got demoted to the second tier Eerste Divisie flopped again then ended up in Porto B playing youth football and shockingly was not even a regular.

He has gone to Huesca the Segunda División and is not a regular. Comes on for as a substitute in the 82nd minutes.

And he is being talked about as a prospect for the SE, that is unbridled delusional misguided favoritism.

Can someone remind us of the last time and year Kelechi Nwakali played a game of first team professional football. ❓

If l started talking about a player in English league one, who played 8 minutes of football in his first competitive game of professional football for over a year. The majority of people would be screaming expletives against me and saying l am nakedly blatantly biased.

You have quite a few players on loan from higher level clubs including Wolves. These are players that can't get a loan move in the Championship and not too many clubs interested even in League one.

Someone is using your name or what seems like it to post rubbish on NL. You may need to report him/her.

I knew it wasn't you judging from your posts/comments that I have seen before.

Peace.

Lol. These are the kind of vids that get people believing in conspiracy theories.

Respect to Odion Ighalo ,still playing at the top at 31

Rohr throws Eagles camp open to NPFL players
By Alex Monye
19 June 2020 | 4:15 am

If you are a home-based player and you believe you have the qualities needed to play for Nigeria, you now have the chance to convince the coaches with your skills. This is because Super Eagles’ Chief Coach, Gernot Rohr, has challenged players in the Nigerian Professional Football League (NPFL) to be ready for the assessment, which will begin as soon as club football returns in the country.

Home-based Nigerian players have been clamouring for inclusion in the senior national team, which in recent times has been the exclusive preserve of players playing outside the country. The change began with the Nigeria Football Federation’s (NFF) insistence that Rohr must go round the local venues to scout for qualified players for his team before he got a new deal.

Yesterday in Lagos, Rohr, who spoke through Super Eagles Media Officer, Toyin Ibitoye, challenged the NPFL players to up their game and prove they are as good as their overseas-based counterparts, saying he would move round the venues to pick the very best among them.

Ibitoye said the NFF and other stakeholders have made arrangements for adequate security for the German and his crew when they start touring match venues on scouting mission.

He added that although Rohr had in the past watched some games in the country, the new mission would ensure that he sees as many players as possible across the country.

“The players should get ready because Rohr will be at the NPFL league venues to assess them. There are no security fears as everything would be put in place to ensure he does his job in secured environments.”

On the clamour in some quarters for Odion Ighalo’s return to the Super Eagles, Ibitoye said the issue would be evaluated at the right time, adding that the coaches would do the best in the interest of Nigeria.

Well you can say that. His latest spell with Porto B is my own reference point. Hopefully he improves from that.

junnyjake:
An improvement from a journey to obscurity to that of resurgence.

It's too premature to say it is an improvement or otherwise. An improvement from what to what?

Philosopher1979:
At least it is an improvement. Better than not even being on the bench.
Secondly let us wait till january at least he would have played a lot of games to judge him.
But at least he is better than 6 months ago

Thirdly the spanish second division is underrated and a good league with good players. A borusia dortmund teenager is in huesca. I dont agree that the 2nd division of england is so much better.
You beleive too much in english football.
Villareal was once in the second division.
Sometimes you are too extreme

I'm beginning to think the reason why some Nigerians are retiring their players prematurely in their head is because they think those players are using football ages.

Odunayaw:
You Andrew is saying Onazi is 27? Wonders

True, much is expected of Werner. Didn't Auba hit the ground running in the EPL?

chrisooblog:
you are right the bundesliga is not the same as the EPL. The level of the German league is much higher. This season in the Champions league German teams have battered English teams from pillar to post.

you can not compare Batshuayi's short stint to Werner who has been consistently prolific for the past 4 seasons. Batshuayi that has only had one prolific season in 5 years? please stop taking the piss komekn.

*you are still tuned to Hypeville FM 95.4!!!* la la la

komekn:
Make we talk dis ting well.

If you be babe, then you all the guys say, l too fine, my character too sweet, everybody says I am the best wife material.

MEANWHILE NOT ONE PERSON PROPOSE.

That's is the case of Etebo according to you, all the Managers praised him but NOBODY wanted him.
