Nice one from the Dangote groups. Nigeria is bound for greater heights.

Buhari has layed the foundation for a prosperous Nigeria while Tinubu will take us to the promise land.

With Tinubu, Nigeria shall soon become one of the most powerful Nation in the world.

Tinubu is our choice for President

.

And how exactly will he do that ❓

From what track record, what industrial job creation business enterprise has he had .

What he had is decades of corruption looting of public funds by proxy and manipulation and enforced and induced loyalty.

Tinibu is personification of the Nigerian problem he is the PROBLEM and certainly not in any way shape or form the SOLUTION.

isan:
Your waste man has 4 EPL goals

How many years ago was that .

He has developed and is now the second highest goal scorer in the Championship.

What will he do when he starts playing in the EPL, l really cannot predict but he is now a very different player so my expectations are very different NOW

andrewbaba44:
Newcastle going for solanke is not ambitious

He is not even better than callum Wilson

I really don't know yet , let's wait and see what the new rejuvenated former Waste Man will do in the EPL.

What I can say is that Solanke can now finish with aplomb and brilliance. He is very different now.

He is technically better than Callum Wilson.

When Callum was in the EPL his best tally was 20.

Solanke has scored 29 .

charlesemeka85:
Newcastle interested in Dominic solanke

I once called him a " Waste Man" he had multiple opportunities at Liverpool and just couldn't cut it.

Even intially at Bournemouth but over the past 2/3 season he has developed into a real goal scorer. It may be the Championship but to get 29 goals in a season is actually outstanding.

I remember saying he had better qualities as an out and out striker than KC at the time. With the usual vitriolic rhetoric responses.

4 years later my opinion has not changed.

I doubt if he will go to Newcastle Bournemouth AFC are already in the EPL. So unless Newcastle offer some crazy money which they may do he will not leave Bournemouth.

When it comes to safety the Volvo is beginning and of the discussion.

If you want safety there is only one option.

Karlovych:
9 goals in 56 EPL games is not useless but Haller with 10 goals in 48 EPL games is a flop right? You want to compare Nketiah with Iheanacho that got 12 last season.
Nketiah hasn't even scored more than 2 goals in a season before this one and like I said his has limited skills as a forward and has poor shooting skills and finishing.

Football is about the HERE and NOW

But if you want to be more comprehensive we should really look at KC's last 5 seasons. This will give us a clear insight into the world class clinical finisher that some believe him to be.

2017/18 games played 21 with 3 goals scored.
2018/19 games played 30 with 1 goals scored
2019/20 games played 20 with 5 goals scored
2020/21 games played 25 with 12 goals scored
2021/22 games played 25 with 4 goals

There isn't much to say really.

Karlovych:
The boy is still useless with limited abilities, the Iheanacho you occasionally play down his goal scoring is better than him. A goalkeeping blunder and a tap in isn't special, his game against West Ham last week were filled with weak shots against Fabianski and missing of clear cut chances

It's great that he is so useless, he has scored 4 goals in the EPL from 18 games.

And clinical finisher KC has scored 4 goals from 24 games.

How very useless Eddie Nketiah is.

Just watching a very useless player according to Jihday just score two goals within 10 minutes against Leeds for Arsenal.

This Eddie Nketiah is so useless we need more useless players like this in the SE please

These are real pictures. It was apparently built by a private individual.

Where exactly is this place when I come to Nigeria want to check this place out.

Sified:
Some people don't know how high the rate of unemployment is in this country, and there's little to no job out there
So how long have you been searching for a job now?
What kind of job are you looking for?

Who knows, potential employers might be reading this

I want to suggest are more apt and revealing question would be to ask the level of underemployment.

Which is where people accept jobs they are overwhelming qualified to do. Because they cannot get any better.

You will be surprised how many waiters and waitresses have university degrees and higher but are serving tables in beer parlours and restaurants.

Add to that the number of people unemployed and it looks very bleak the present and future.

mostob:
Maracana multi-purpose stadium,Surulere

Is this proposed or actually in existence.

Because if it exists that's quite impressive

Koboko99:
There is a certain Tim Iroegbunam on the bench for Aston villa alongside Carney Chukuemeka. He's a DM, CM. He's just 18. One for the future

He is not the only Nigerian origin youth player in Aston Villa.

Carney brother Caleb has also played for Villa he is on loan now.

TheGoodJoe:


Forget bias. People have preferences. I will play Werner anyday over Tammy Abraham upfront. I believe you will play Tammy over Werner. It is preference in style, not bias to the player.

That's bias not preference it's not anchored on objectivity and player outcome delivery.

Because Tega is COMPREHENSIVELY better than Werner on all fronts.

PDPGuy:
Osimhen has reportedly picked Arsenal ahead of Man Utd….

Players don't pick teams the team picks you .

Arsenal are looking at a plethora of top striker's and so this a a bit premature as well as he is way over priced in my opinion £100 million.

Italian Mafia at work with his transfer fee.

charlesemeka85:
the same Abraham lampard during his time as Chelsea coach labeled him a championship striker?

If he was good as you stated why did Chelsea discard him just to bring in lukaku? Even it got to a point in the club last season where he was benched for almost 3 months without playing

And what happened to Lampard he got sacked.

Tuchel did not bring in Lukaku.

Tuchel refused to play Tega Abraham and put in his place Werner and Havertz. That season 2020/21 Kai Havertz who cost £72 million scored 4 goals after 27 games and much more game time also Timo Werner who cost £50 million played 35 games with much more game time scored 6 goals.

That season after just 22 games mainly as a substitute and with about 35% of the game time of Timo Werner still scored 6 goals in the EPL.

The previous season Teha Abraham had scored 15 goals the highest goal tally by a Chelsea striker since the days of Conte.

To date Kai Havertz and Timo Werner have been unable to match the goal tally of Tega Abraham.

Sometimes football defies rational look at the transfer fee of Timo and Kai £50 and £72 million. But both of them have never been better than Tega Abraham in any way shape or form. Meanwhile Tega cost Roma a mere £34 million.

Tuchel was biased and there seemed to be other preferences beyond football for his two German country men.

Now they bought Lukaku and that has just been shambolic management by Tuchel can't see him lasting another season.

How did rangers make it to the Europa league finals when their level is the English league one

Fulham will easily win the Europa league Walai

#Ogogorofootballanalysis#

Komekn

The same way Championship Nottingham Forest beat Arsenal and Leicester city in the FA cup.

Go and ask them they will gladly educate you.

andrewbaba44:
Back to ogogoro football analysis sponsored by you

Why is Frankfurt beating a good westham team ?

We all know Frankfurt is not on the same level with a world class Fulham who is better than Porto so how come are they beating westham

You should ask Barcelona

Thank God he is standing up he looks bewildered and really shaken

What has happened to Aribo
he is knocked out cold it is seems

God please

Hanibal:
But matter of fact Komekn has nothing against Porto, the fact that a Nigerian made left back aka Zaidu Sanusi is consistently starting games at a supposedly top European club like Porto was giving him sleepless nights, a Nigerian born and bred left back can't possibly be quality, it doesn't make sense, so problem had to be Porto, Porto had to be a useless team, infact so useless it is the equivalence of mid table championship teams.
Hence the Fulham comparisms.
The day Sanusi leaves Porto, and Porto signs Fred onyedinma or any of his carpenter init boys, the narrative will change

Stop telling lies to what purpose it's really unnecessary.

I made a specific comparison with Fulham not a general one, player to player and concluded that in general Fulham and on paper Fulham is a better team.

And specifically to Zaidu I said he would not get into the Fulham team. My opinion is the same now as it was then.

The left back for Fulham is Antonee Robinson a USA international, with 25 international caps. Do you think that deduction is emotive and prejudiced ❓

TheLoneCitizen:
And there's no rule that says if he played more he wouldn't score more, you dinosaur.

You earn the right to play by what you do in training and on the pitch.

If he had made better use of the minutes he had played he probably would have played more. But he had not.

Ademola Lookman a winger has scored more goals than him

andrewbaba44:
Arsenal going for osimhen looks like a serious issue

I hope arsenal makes it to the champions league

But aside this ,I don’t want osimhen to leave Napoli ,he has a higher chance performing better for Napoli in the uefa champions league than he will at arsenal

But Nigerians are obsessed with the epl and dude might just move there because of better salary so nothing consign me

And arsenal is not currently bigger than Napoli

On my honest opinion Victor O is not technically astute to play in Arsenal. He is very one dimensional and Arsenal will not change their football DNA to accommodate him.

Look at all of Arsenal strikers in the past and present and make your conclusions.

Look at Pepe £75 million benched by a teenage Saka from the academy.

I will not be surprised if Arsenal go for Tega Abraham.

TheGoodJoe:
Which clubs are you talking of? Apart from Kanu, how many made a big break in a top club in Europe in their teens?

Taiye Taiwo was from U20, that is late to what we are talking of.

I am not saying they had it easy. I am not saying it was a walk in the park but I am saying their environment gives them an edge.

It is difficult for an African kid to have the kind of break Tammy Abraham had at Chelsea. Tammy was 18 years old when he had that break to play in a team like Chelsea. It takes a high degree of fortune to make it from Africa, especially Nigeria.

If Osimhen was born in London and grew through their academy system, he would have been far ahead in career goals than he has now. That is the point.

If Iheanacho did not break into our academy system based on the special talent clause, he would not have had that early break in Manchester City.

This is what these kids are born into.

Once again your complete lack of knowledge and understanding makrs you be say a lot of nonsense to be honest.

Do you know how many thousands of boys go on football trials at Chelsea but fail to get selected. Some become mentally depressed.

For your information Mbappe was on trial at Chelsea but failed to get selected.

If you by a miracle get past the trials ,you ate now in continuous competition year in year out. Every year a 20% of boys are dropped from the squad, could be more. Some are so depressed at being dropped and released they commit suicide.

When you get to 12/13 Chelsea will buy teenage football players showing potential. These new players from Brazil, France, Portugal, etc May cancel out existing players in the team and they will be released.

So you have survived until 15/16 you now have to prove you are first team quality. You will be competing against experienced quality proven players bought for sometimes £50 million plus+.

Add to all that the hard work , training since the age of 7

If you then somehow overcome 4/5 times a week gruelling training , After all these hurdles you then discover the manager doesn't like you or your agent and you are released i.e. Pogba released from United.

I could go on and on , do you know how many players get injured and can no longer continue end of the road ❓ What about racism Do you know how many players are denied opportunity because they are black.


So by sheer tenacity, outstanding ability and the Grace of God, you make it to the first team. Will anybody unless they are highly ignorant say to you, you had too much opportunity.

That's a nonsensical proposition without any substance.

TheLoneCitizen:
Sometimes, you have to pretend to think, my good man.

Half of those 24 games were under 20 mins, yet he sits top 5 in goal contributions at Leicester.

It is inconsequential, there is no rule that says if he played more he would score more.

TheGoodJoe:

Precisely, you take a stat you like to share your biased idea that Iheanacho is poor and want to dump stats that shows what he offers to Leicester City. This is the definition of bias.

What is the pertinent stat that a striker is measured with , very simple goals and goals.

You take a plethora of statistics that are inconsequential and you want to tell us KC is world class.

You are completely blinded with emotive bias you have no sense of objectivity.

TheLoneCitizen:
Really, brother?

Iheanacho versus the most similar world class player to him since 2020/21: Harry Kane

Per minute

Goals:
Kane: 0.54
Iheanacho: 0.56

Assists:
Kane: 0.33
Iheanacho: 0.25

G/A:
Kane: 0.84
Iheanacho: 0.81

Chances created:
Kane: 1.4
Iheanacho: 1.54

Clear cut chances created:
Kane: 0.47
Iheanacho: 0.35

Successful dribbles:
Kane: 1.49
Iheanacho: 1.56

Dribble success rate:
Kane: 52%
Iheanacho: 62.5%

Expected goals (no penalty):
Kane: 0.49
Iheanacho: 0.38

Actual goals - Expected goals:
Kane: -2.1
Iheanacho: +5.6

The only reason that site compared him to Havertz is because they are both left-footed, or else the negroid is clear.

Respect the senior man.

Misrepresentation and misinformation using statistics to create a convulated Idea that a player is much better than he is.

FACT - In the 2021/22 season KC has played 24 games and scored 4 goals. You really cannot dress this up ,it's simply abysmal and very poor, for a foreward players some have claimed here is exceptional quality.

JohnBullMySon:
Lol. Komekn is coming to tell y'all how Fulham is better than Napoli and Mitrovic better than Osimhen.

Fulham is really good btw. I think they just made it six now. They have sharp shooters like Man city.

Mitrovich just scored 43 goals in one season the highest number of goals in the history of the second tier.

Fulham have scored over 100 goals in a season in the Championship.

Look at the quality of players it's no Fluke, Liverpool tried to buy their 19 year old Midfielder in January but have hot him now on a pre contract.

If you do very well in the Championship every top level team in Europe will look at it you. Unlike no other second tier league in Europe.

Fulham just beat Luton Town 7-0

Fulham is not better than Napoli in my opinion however, would Napoli beat them in a match, l really don't know.

Food for thought Anguissa a sure starter for Napoli was let go on loan. Not wanted by the Manager.

TheGoodJoe:

So you know someone can battle with injuries and surmount it but you want to use that injury window to define Osimhen.

Congrats to Tammy proud of him but do not use him being injury free and opportuned as criteria of his success. If Osimhen was born in England with his talent and free of injuries, he would have gone far.

Despite the challenges, he is still doing well in Italy. That shows the heart of a winner give Osimhen his props.

You do not need to denigrate Osimhen to praise Tammy.

They are young men doing well and we pray they keep getting better.

Finito

IF is a very big word.

You don't predict life by location and differing circumstances. It's your life experiences that form your character not the other way round.

How do you know that Victor O, would not have ended up as die hard drug dealer running tings in Hackney East London with no interest in football what so ever.

If Victor with his limited technical ability had not gone through hell fire of life experiences in Lagos. He would not have had the die hard mental resilience to overcome all his challenges in life and succeed the way he has , against all odds.

Life is not so predictable.

Only God can do that, he who knows the end of things from the beginning.

andrewbaba44:
They will come and say Nwakaeme is too old and he plays for turkey and he is not better than our wingers ,I will be waiting for the person that will come and tell me that nonsense even after we failed to qualify for the World Cup

And yes it’s time for dessers no excuse .

Yes he is too old probably even older 9ja football age.

Yes he plays in a moi.moi inconsequential low level against retired players.

There are too many players better in better leagues and clubs.

We don't need Mediocrity but quality.

andrewbaba44:
Afena bench Tammy

You know you are being deluded just as komekn is towards victor ,this one even worst pass komekn own

Actually what you have is effectively Roma second 11 team.

chuks404:
so he is now world class? People self. I don't want to be drawn into that argument of who is better. HE IS PURE AVERAGE. deal with it. so u want to teach osihmen football and u are calling Tammy? Hahahahahah. The issue is that we don't know what we have . yes he has places to improve but Tammy is not a yardstick but serious AVERRRRRAGE STRIKER that needs more schooling than osimhen.

Nobody said Tega Abraham is world class, nobody even said he has the potential to be world class.

Nobody said he was a singular yardstick for being World class.

But your prejudice against him and your favouritism for Victor has befuddled your sense of reason.

Can you please tell us specifically where Tega Abraham AVERAGE STRIKER needs schooling ❓
