He is pretty clear.. He said he is open to both sides..But there is a twist.. He may not be in a hurry to commit to one.

soetanoreoluwa:
Is he not thesame player that want to play for Germany u21. Maybe he is having a rethink.
Think I like how he's handling this issues not blowing it out of proportion.

I really do hope he comes good if/when Rohr gives him another opportunity so Oga forgivesness could shut us up. Lol

Haha!! But unfortunately for him, he failed to live up to that billing when he was given an opportunity to break into the team.

Now, he would have to go to the back of the line and wait for his turn.

by trash I was only saying he should not use that in this argument. Rankings is irrelevant in this discussion. Rankings can be used in other contexts as a reference.

In individual sports rankings have a greater significance. In team sports there are many factors that are considered, which is why I cannot just do a player to player comparison purely based on club rankings (and that was the actual context.

Komekn I can take u in this if u want us to apply that logic to comparing players. And we are going to use players that are not Nigerians. Let me know when u are ready.


komekn:
I am very suprised at you making that kind of sweeping statement. See the bold.

Tell me one nation in the past 40 years that has won the world cup that was not ranked in the top 10 huh

Tell me one club that has one tye champions league that it's league was not ranked in the top 10.

In actual fact in both permutations it's more like top 5 as opposed to top 10.

Have no doubt top players will play in top leagues and top clubs eventually.

Reality what is your reality. Tell me one not two just one please, player who has a rating that is not reflective of his standing that we have in thier current club.

Your descriptive diction (most times) is very sweeping and totally misleading. You seem to have little appreciation of this science of football analysis.

Of course there will be exceptions but broadly speaking rankings are indicative of the reality. That's why it's possible that a team that is ranked well below us can beat us and vice versa. After all what was south Africa ranking when they played us.

TheSuperNerd:
Goalkeepers Crisis – Bnei Sakhnin Ex Nigeria U17 Goalkeeper Akpan Udoh Gets Flying Eagles Invitation

https://i1.wp.com/owngoalnigeria.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/04/AD538B9B-6132-4EB0-8B23-371935108D86-2779-0000015FFE741113.jpeg


The goalkeeper of the title winning Nigeria U17 team of 2015 Akpan Udoh has been invited to the present Nigeria U20 team under the guidance of coach Paul Aigbogun.

Udoh is presently keeping goal for the youth team of Israeli side Bnei Sakhnin, and in the over 16 games he has kept this season, he was posted shut out in nine games with three man of the match awards to his name as well.

As reported by this portal, the issue of a good goalkeeper is one of the problems the U20 team are currently facing, and the coaches are hoping Udoh will be an upgrade on the goalkeepers they have in camp.

A club source revealed to Owngoalnigeria.com, that he was invited last month but visa issues stopped him from honouring the call, which would have seen him take part in the two friendly games they played against Egypt.

He is however expected to join the Flying Eagles in camp when the league ends in Israel. Udoh is not new to the demands of playing for the U20s as he kept goal for the Emmanuel Amuneke lead team of 2016 that failed to qualify for the African Youth Championship.

Popular Israeli scout David Ouziel manages the affair of the shot stopper, whom many believe has the ability to become the Super Eagles first choice goalkeeper in a not too distant future.

BascoVanVeli:
Dzeko has not been in Italy so long. I still don't get ur point. Who from the Italian league has gone to England and taken it by storm apart from Mohamed Salah? Cuadrado was the man Salah went to Fiorentina to replace and he flopped at Chelsea, went back to Italy and became the man again.

Mbappe of Monaco 11 found his way into the main team before he went to PSG.

Is he in the same level with Kelechi Iheanacho currently?

He's still currently better than them. Facts

Bazee won't be fit enough. He's clocked only 68 minutes so far this season, and still struggling to get game time.
Rohr won't take back his word on Enyeama
Aren't we tired of using Agbo as a training material already? Let's have players that would really fight for a shirt.
It's looking like Onyekuru is already training with Anderlecht.. Welcome developmet
I endorse Eze's invitation. We don't want running chickens without a head -- but creative players. Eze is a special player. He should have the one and only rookie slot.

Osimhen should wait to fight another day.

The Italian league has it's own uniqueness with rugged defenders. I don't expect a player from England for example to go over there and start tearing the league up -- and vice versa. I'm going to make a wild GUESS that the players you mentioned have been in the serie a for quite a while.. are any of them on their debut or second season?

BascoVanVeli:
I don't know about all that but Italy has a lot of guys who score big every year like Higguain, Dybala, Icardi, Dzeko, Mertins etc

when the rankings change does that automatically mean that the player(s) in question also change in quality? Let me ask you in a more elementary way.
Should Umar get signed by a team ranked higher (IN RANKING)than Shaktar tomorrow, would you then argue that Umar is better than Kayode? grin

forgiveness:
UEFA rating is based on your performance at the highest level. Teams don't just get points out of the blues. They earn it.

Nigeria national team didn't qualify for two AFCON consecutively but you expected them to be in top 10 - 30 rankings? Hello! Wake up. You are not making sense.

Now, no authorized authorities on football matters will take novice seriously.

let him maintain his goal per minute ratio that's my point.. He has the all time top scorer to contend with. And if he can stretch the record, let him go for it.

BascoVanVeli:
Why does he need an excuse he already has 14 goals 8 more than any one else. Odey had players like Alhassan, Adetunji, Mfon Udoh and Victor Mbaoma nipping on his heels but in this case we have a firm one horse race.

well I was comparing his previous season with this..
Usually I expect strikers to score less in the Italian league.. Not to say some don't score up to the 30. I believe Immobile has 29 at the moment

Put those rankings in your trash. It doesn't always add up. Today Nigeria is ranked below 40 in the world. Can u beat your chest and say all the teams above us in the rankings will beat us. Similarly you cannot say a player is better than another just only because of the league they play. Put those rankings in the trash. While rankings can be a good reference point sometimes, but it does not hold most times in reality.
Would Kayode even manage to score a goal in Serie A? -- Let me use ur overplayed logic, what was Kayode doing at age 19?



forgiveness:
It is either you play in a top league or with a top club.

Kayode is playing with a top club better than all the clubs in Eredivise based on current form.

Is it true?

As lowly as Ukrainian league maybe to you, it's better than Eredivise.

Where is Eredivise and the best club in Eredivise on the list of best clubs and best leagues in the world.

Remove hatred and sentiment for your head and be objective for once. Thanks

Martins was one of my favorite players in his earlier career and SE days. I have no reason to be happy about his injury.
And there was nothing official about him being under consideration by Rohr before the mishap. So I am indifferent.

Whether you are happy he is injured or not, and not going to the world Cup, we must state the facts here.

That should not be the excuse o. Odey wasn't far ahead, or was he?
BascoVanVeli:
The only thing I can see slowing him down is the fact that he is so far ahead of everyone else which means there will be no one to push him.
