Sometimes I wonder what's the real underlying issue behind the player comparisons. A player has been ruled out for 6 months or so, and the argument is still on about him. |
So Kayode is now better than Dessers and Umar combined.. And what if he fails to keep scoring in lowly Ukraine? Will that override all his accomplishments in Spain? forgiveness: |
you are very correct sir that's why he will be in the 35 man list. forgiveness: |
After looking at Ibe's stats this season, he could be a good addition but... BOURNE IDENTITY Bournemouth star Jordon Ibe set to snub Nigeria to try and earn England World Cup place The winger’s form has reignited interest for him to switch countries from the Three Lions By Mike McGrath 15th January 2018, 7:55 amUpdated: 15th January 2018, 8:11 am JORDON IBE will snub Nigeria to keep himself in the frame for England. The Bournemouth winger’s form has reignited interest for him to switch countries from the Three Lions. Jordan Ibe will snub Nigeria to try and play international football with England Ibe qualifies for Nigeria through his father and they are willing to offer the chance to fight for a World Cup place at Russia next year. But the 22-year-old is refusing to give up on forcing his way into the reckoning for England under Gareth Southgate. Ibe was tipped for an England call-up 18 months ago when he broke into the Liverpool first team as successor to Raheem Sterling, with Roy Hodgson admitting he liked him. The ex-Wycombe youth player struggled settle when he moved to Bournemouth but has now started to live up to his £15million price tag. Jordan Ibe far right) still has ambitions to represent England He has six assists this season in all competitions and netted the winner in the 2-1 win against Arsenal at Dean Court at the weekend. And he wants to make sure he is available for Southgate if the England boss is looking at his options for next summer’s tournament. Southgate picked him for the Under-21s in 2015, with Kop youngster Joe Gomez also called up at the time and on a path to the seniors. Ibe has played for England’s youth teams and would prefer to stick with the Three Lions despite Nigeria wanting him. |
Uduokhai: “I have not been to Nigeria often yet, but I talk a lot about it with my dad, and have family there. That’s where my roots lie, it’s important to me to stay neutral. “Of course, the German national team is the top in world football, but also Nigeria is well staffed. Currently, I’m really open to both sides.” It's looking like he is in the bag to me, and he is arguably the best among the German-Nigerian defenders we've been courting |
you think he could score 30 goals in a single season in Italy? BascoVanVeli: |
Dessers is 23, he has arrived age-wise.. You never know what he might do if he moved to La Liga for example.. it's hard to really say.. which is why i'm not so strict on this league comparison thing.. Did Sadiq get lots of playing time in Serie A? Modified Take a look at Orji Okwonkwo He had 3 goals from 10 matches in the serie A This term he's not even scored a goal after 6 matches in Serie B, even though he has clocked more minutes. You see what I mean? This is why i'm not big on league comparison.. it's all about player form and maybe other factors as well. somehow:
|
trust me, i'm enjoying it.. but my hopes are not high up there. BascoVanVeli: |
you mean they would have beaten the Japanese club hands down? somehow: |
Umar needs to maintain that superior goal per minute ratio. As it stands, a better way to compare them is by focussing on their current Eredivisie record. somehow: |
truthfully, he came and lighted up the EPL. It's not like he significantly improved.. He may have been a little underrated all this while.. This is the same man that singlehandedly stopped us from qualifying for AFCON. Moses is good.. But Salah belongs to the world class category. goldfish80: |
Okocha and Iwobi on SS3 |
even sane is better. goldfish80: |
aayayaya salah to mane gbam |
I AGREE -- arguably goldfish80: |
SALAH!!! |
well.. Rohr was about to hand him a timely invite I hope he gets well soon in time for next season. CaptainStephen: |

Odey part 2 Then he will slow down in the second half of the league. BascoVanVeli: |

Right now he clearly does not have same opportunity with the German senior national team. all these boys when go dey take am personal when girl turn u down.

YOUNGSTER ON RAMPAGE: Chukwueze nets hat-trick in Villarreal whacking By Ade Alabi - April 4, 2018 48 0 Nigerian-born Villarreal U-19 prolific winger, Samuel Chukwueze, has been in fine form and constantly impressing for his club side in the U-19 league, the Division de Honor Juvenil, AOIFootball.com can report. There was no respite for UCAM Murdia U-19 as the Abia State-born youngster tore apart the defence, netting a hat-trick and making an assist in the encounter on Good Friday. His team went on to win the match 8:3 at home and Samuel was gifted with the match day ball after the game. The former Diamond Football Academy player and gold medalist with Nigeria’s Golden Eaglets at the 2015 U-17 World Cup in Chile, has a total of 7 goals and 9 assists in the league so far. “It is a great feeling and I feel so happy because it’s my first hat-trick for the team,” Samuel exclusively told AOIFootball.com from his base in Spain. Samuel is definitely one for the future and a future Super Eagles material if he continues in this feat. Villarreal U-19 currently seat 4th on the log in the Division de Honor Juvenil. --AOIfootball |

World Cup List: Rohr could invite some new faces, says Agali By Ayo Olu Ibidapo - April 3, 2018 709 0 Former Super Eagles’ star Victor Agali is of the view that Coach Gernot Rohr could spring a few surprises ahead of naming his 35-man provisional World Cup list, admitting the Franco-German is keen to give equal opportunity to every player in other to select the best hands for the country. The former OGC Nice attacker, who spoke to AOIFootball.com, said Nigerians should believe in Rohr because, after Bonfrere Jo and Clemence Westerhof, the Franco-German is the next best thing in terms of foreign coach to have happened to the country. “I believe we all must be patient with Rohr because after the likes of Westerhof and Bonfrere Jo, I believe Gernot is another blessing to Nigerian football. He tries his best to carry everybody along, and gives players equal opportunity to be selected and listens to all is scouting and technical team. “I know Gernot Rohr is fair to all and is committed to developing the image of our football. He will decide on that. I can’t comment on if he will stick with the ones he has tested and know or not, but may be one or two new faces, just maybe. I strongly believe we should scout more and know more of about opponents,” Agali concluded. --AOIfootball |

“The opportunity to play for Nigeria at the World Cup would, of course, have honoured me. After all, my father played for this country, too.” “However, it quickly became clear to me that I wanted to prove myself to the DFB. I’m new to the U21 and I really want to assert myself there.” Is it a sin to have a preference again? We've gone past this kind of talk.. Is Torunarigha even "mixed" (biracial)? oloriooko: |
OGN RUMOR: Musa Yahaya to EPL club, Huddersfield? |
ON TORUNARIGHA: “I recently called the Nigerian coach, Gernot Rohr, and explained to him that Jordan would continue to play for Germany in the future. He thought it was a pity, but he understood”, Zorn was quoted as saying by German publication B.Z. Same publication also quoted the defender as saying “The opportunity to play for Nigeria at the World Cup would, of course, have honoured me. After all, my father played for this country, too.” “However, it quickly became clear to me that I wanted to prove myself to the DFB. I’m new to the U21 and I really want to assert myself there.” -- OGN |
in 2022 komekn and forgiveness will start clamoring for this player because of this feat. ![]() Nigerian Striker Nominated For League Two Player Of The Season Award Published: April 03, 2018 Nigerian Striker Nominated For League Two Player Of The Season AwardNigerian striker Adebayo Akinfenwa has been nominated for the Sky Bet League Two Player of the Season award. The Wycombe Wanderers frontman has been shortlisted for the accolade along with Mohamed Eisa (Cheltenham Town) and Billy Kee (Accrington Stanley). The 2018 EFL Awards will be held on April 15th at the London Hilton on Park Lane and awards will be given out across twelve categories. The only player of Nigerian descent that made the shortlist, Akinfenwa, has been in brilliant form for Wycombe Wanderers in the fourth-tier of English football, scoring 17 goals in 39 starts while notching up 14 assists. Whatever the outcome of the Player of the Season award, the 35-year-old will certainly walk away from the ceremony with his head held high as he has been named to the Team of the Season in the division. In a 4-3-3 formation chosen by managers of clubs in League Two, Akinfenwa was one of the three strikers selected. The former Watford youth-teamer lists Leyton Orient, Swansea City, Millwall, Northampton Town, Gillingham and AFC Wimbledon amongst his former clubs. Ifeanyi Emmanuel --ANS |
