Senegal dey make Africa proud. I guess their qualification is sure.btw colombian keeper is quite good.

DrLikita12:
I don't think they plan to repeat it.
They did it so the season could be over in time for AFCON.

zoboizee:
Iheanacho will never boss the Belgian league. He lacks qualities you will see in those that did. Look at Samatta, Mbokani, Osimhen & even Ezekiel. He needs to finetune his first touch issue/ball control, dribbling ability, the need to use his right foot passively & he equally needs tough shoulder to wear down defenders.

Official relagated and playoff teams
Waiting for the final table

Thank you my sister. How can he say the only Bright side is taking a 17 years old player to an U20 WC.

Me I am already looking forward to seeing him at the 2021 WYC as he may not likely get game time in this one. We don't even have a goalie with the present U17.

Icon4s:
See, some of those boys na '' wowo'' cause am o.

You know that looking fresh and handsome makes someone look younger See how fresh those Europe based players look See Oforboh, Michael and even Dele-Bashiru even as he dark he still looks fresh

Compared to the likes of Offiah, Effiom and Oremade

Dis zacala guy just dey expose our men d more

tbaba1234:
How can you cheat in the US when your records are linked to everything you do? Your social security number is issued from birth and it follows you throughout your life.

It is easy to do in Nigeria simply because of lack of records.

Has Awoniyi been given a chance?

gamaliel9:
There is a certain Felix Agu..a defender who players for VFL OSNERBRUCK that just got promoted to Bundesliga 2 from Bundesliga 3

He is eligible for us...

charlesemeka85:
and what made the thunder team loan him to a 2nd tier team?

charlesemeka85:
yea have heard alot about him but the Portuguese 2nd tier is very poor so i will rate him when he performs in top flight

soetanoreoluwa:
Liverpool or Barcelona? Which one will guarantee Samu playing time, development and trophy? Which one is the best deal?

Earthquake3:
I think someone who has won most tackles and recoveries two seasons in a row has the right to be referred to as world class

Another angle is anyone at Leicester city world class?

gustav25:
Ndidi is bang average

AIG07:
Hello house,

I think it is high time we all agree to a particular unit/system of measurement when it comes to certain issues like player rankings.

The words below average, average, above average, top player, excellent player, world class, legend etc should be well defined and where possible mathematically proofed/backed up.

Reason for this is simple.
I believe anyone who has grouped our players into classes has done so using his/her personal metrics which is based on their understanding and perception which might not be generally acceptable.

The rating done in football is often on scale of {0-10} or {0%-100%} which afford the no 5 and 50 to be average mark.

A pundit who uses 0-10scale can easily group players in to 5 classes {POOR(0-2.49), BELOW AVERAGE (2.50-4.99), AVERAGE(5), ABOVE AVERAGE(5.10-7.49) AND WORLD Class (7.5-10) while any one who uses just 1-3 or will likely have (BELOW AVERAGE, AVERAGE And WORLD Class) which is limited when the pool of players is much and wide.

If I were to use the 0-10 scale,

None of our players will make it to the World Class group. I repeat none. I'll place Ndidi in the 'top' of THE ABOVE AVERAGE group alongside Mikel, Iwobi slightly below them in the same group,
The rest bunch of average and below average players.

The World Class tag should only be left for the very few players that are consistently churning out great stats season in season out. The likes of Aguero, KDB, Modric, Chielini, VVD, Ramos, Kante Neymar, Cavani Suarez, Ibrahimovich, De Gea, Lloris, Mbappe, Salah, etc led by Messi and Ronaldo who occupy the very Top.) won't class the likes of Pogba, Vardy, Auba, as World Class,they might be close but they ain't.

On the other hand. The word LEGENDARY IS RELATIVE! A player does not necessarily have to be world class to be a Legend. Even Green Forest FC(smiles) have their own Legends. Legendary status can be achieved via Loyalty, No of years of service, contribution etc. It can be attained either at club level or international level. Some players are lucky to have both. Bobby Charlton, Pirlo, Maradona, Pele etc

Morgan, Vardy, are Leicester Legends but not world class, Keshi, Mikel are Nigeria legends but not world class!

I hope this proposition and examples will help resolve various misconception and also save us from series of back and forth arguments.

Afobear:
Why call me to this Sunken place where all you old men do is drink beer and talk about your averageeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee frauds you calm players ? Is Iheanacho Nacho pigmouth still better than mbappe and a hybrid of Messi ,Cavani and Ronaldo ? Drunks
