Of course what we need more is quality and sound coaches,not only in the Super Eagles but also in all the national teams expecially our under 17 and 20 teams.

With good coaches in our junior teams,we Will always be able to do well in tournaments and discover more quality players 4 our national teams,
and we won't have to worry about which FB that commit to us or not.

With very good quality in SE,we can only afford to go for the very best of the FB which can measure up to d standard we have set,
which will always be very difficult, because d very best of d foreign borns will always see us as the second choice.

Since the SE is almost saturated with more FB,what have we won?
Why should one worry himself about who commit to us or not?

What is the standard YOU have set ❓

mostob:
This Lesley move to Chelsea eh... Not expecting something negative but Chelsea as a club doesn't rate youngsters. Na so so loans Dem go dey send you.



Carney is yet to stamp his foot in the first team months later.

Below Chelsea academy boys who played or play for the first team in recent times;

Reece James
Tega Abraham
Christian Pulisic
Mason Mount
Trevoh Chalobah
Fikayo Tomori


Chuks Carney is 19 and competing with top level player's and played 14 games last season. In the context of the EPL and Chelsea FC that's very good in my opinion.

Your are mistaken in your claims.

lloydtruth:
So Chelsea now have Chukwuemeka, Ugochukwu, and Madueke yet none is plays for Nigeria.

Believe it or not.

Many years ago I was at a Chelsea U18 game against Reading FC.

And several of the boys much to my amazement were communicating in Igbo.

solonnachi:
Are you certain about this because this Tosin boy has on several occasions stated that the England dream has been rubber stamped on his mind. Hope he is not using Nigeria to catch cruise ooo

Is that what he told you ❓

Or you have created that narrative from your imagination

charlesemeka85:
leave the spoilt brat wey dey find pity

I heard he’s dad is wealthy and lives in Houston. Even that the man brought him to Texas to live with him but only returned him to UK because of he’s footballing ambition

Even got him he’s first car after he passed he’s driving lessons

Dele has attitude issues but realize that now cus he has fallen off

Actually l spoke to his Uncle his story is very different from yours .

charlesemeka85:
the agent too good🤣🤣🤣

To me Onazi hv never been a good player, he was just fortunate to hv decent stints with Lazio and the Super eagles

Onazi was one of the best Midfielders to grace the green and white.

He earned his place in the Lazio first team by merit,was wanted by Tottenham and a few other top clubs. Very good player.

However, after 5 oustanding season in Seria A with Lazio, he just started dipping in quality and firm ending up in he early 20's in the Turkish league it's been downhill since the.

What is bewildering is Onazi Ogenyi is only 30 years old, I can't understand .

Meliforme:
Amen, so be it that he is wanted by top EPL clubs.

If horses were wishes then even beggars would ride .

Don't work , don't improve, dont diligently pursue EXCELLENCE just wish and yoi will make it.

That's amen to yourself.

charlesemeka85:
Spanish 2nd tier club Burgos FC interested in Kelechi Nwakali

This is fake news you are denigrating a player who is wanted by the top clubs in La Liga .

Roger3D:
The dumb white man's religion and the even dumber African adherents. When will you fools wake up and smell the coffee?

Actually first church was in Ethiopia.

Moses wife Zipporah was a Cushite and from the darker regions of Sudan Nubian bordering on Ethiopia.

Perception is not FACT and you may perceive the Christian religion to be Eurocentric Caucasian white. That's because you lack knowledge a case of dumb and dumber.

Kobojunkie:
1. So even though the statement by Jesus Christ is set with a but...
to indicate a separation between the Old commandment and the New, you would rather believe that Jesus Christ meant instead to use and... meaning that not only is there no separation between the definition from the old commandment and the new commandments which He came to give , but Jesus Christ by adding to the Old sinned against God?

2. I am confused. Did you pledge your life to your bible or did you give your life to Jesus Christ? Which one? Cause they are obviously not one and the same.

Christ is the living word of God the manifestation of the word in flesh yet spirit.

Adultery is having sex with a married woman who is not your wife, strict Biblical definition.

maidaboi:
Five top premier league clubs

you want give Komekn heart attack LOL

These are the five too premier League clubs.

Man city
Arsenal
Man United
Newcastle United
Liverpool


I'm sure someone has been taking too much Kwale Igbo.

maidaboi:
LOL not true indeed
the fact that he is the only one that has done it is something because if it easy many players would have done it already

Scored a goal for everyday of the week , can you please evidence 🧾 that please.

And don't say somebody said it because that would be air fairy hearsay.

maidaboi:
Don't disrespect KC abeg
He still remain the only player to score in all days of the week in a season in England

https://www.channelstv.com/2021/05/19/timeline-how-iheanacho-became-first-player-to-score-an-epl-goal-every-day-of-the-week/

What value does that particular statistic brings to his rating as a player. If indeed it's actually TRUE.

2022/23 from 26 games 4 goals 🥅
2021/22 from 28 games 5 goals 🥅
2020/21 from 25 games 12 goals 🥅
2019/20 from 20 games 5 goals 🥅
2018/19 from 30 games 1 goal. 🥅
2017/18 from 21 games 3 Goals 🥅

So how did he score minmum 7 goals in the EPL for every day of the week when apart from 2020/21 when he scored 12,:he has never been able to score more than 5 goals in a season

I wonder 🤔

BankyGee:
Bro all these things dey very unnecessary. Insulting someone does not prove your point. To be honest, anytime I read your posts, na shout I dey always hear inside my head and most times it "literally" causes headache. Just pass your point without insulting anybody, you can argue with someone without calling of names or just going around IPOBizing anyone that has a different opinion than yours. Let there be peace ☮️ and calm please 🙏🏽. All of us are friends/brothers on this thread not warriors... Thanks.

Agreed without question ❓

Curtisaxel10:
If he goes to Lille and bags the League's top scorer award, he would be in serious contention.....
















For becoming Victor Osimhen's backup striker🙂

Dude V.O. is on top 🔝 of the game right now and close to being world class IMO. This his first season where he has got to being highest goal scorer in a top league .

It's one thing to get to the top it's another thing to stay there. So next season is crucial for him to maintain his current trajectory.

Where ever he ends up the expectations will be HUGE , if he stays at Napoli he will be under less pressure.If he goes particularly with a transfer fee exceeding £120 million, then he absolutely have to meet those expectations.

Nunez scored 9 goals from 29 games he is now looking like bad market, such are the high expectations, that come with big prices tags.

AndSunGorilla:
I don't agree with sir K on what he posted as he's definitely undermining KC which is definitely on the extreme. That said, stating that Ivan Toney, Mitrovic and Watkins are quacks too is another extreme on the spectrum.

When somebody says that KC will score 40+ goals in the Championship 🏆 and I refute that ludicrous claim, thats not being extreme but the contrary.

Using a balanced ⚖️ comparison analysis ,with Ivan Toney, Mitrovic, Watkins, to get a balanced rational perspective. No player has been able to hit 40+ goals in the history of the Championship apart from Mitrovic.

Is KC by any stretch of the imagination on the same level as any of those player's.❓ So how could it be undermining to KC.

JohnBullMySon:
To think that some white people are not better than you, even when they had better systems to develop themselves, is equally as stupid as thinking that every white person is better than you. Whenever you involve race in something it shouldn't be involved in, you make a mess of whatever that is. The Arabs are some of the most racist and culturally narcissists groups in the world. Yet they know too well how to avoid race where competence is needed. Their key investments are run by foreigners wherever they lack talent.

I'll be glad if you come up with any Nigerian coach more accomplished than these guys below.

1. **José Mourinho** (Porto, Chelsea, Inter Milan, Real Madrid, Manchester United, Tottenham Hotspur, Roma)

2. **André Villas-Boas** (Porto, Chelsea, Tottenham Hotspur, Zenit Saint Petersburg, Marseille)

3. **Nelo Vingada** (Benfica, Sporting CP, Porto, VfB Stuttgart, Al-Ahli)

4. **Bruno Lage** (Benfica, Wolverhampton Wanderers)

5. **Carlos Queiroz** (Real Madrid, Portugal national team, Colombia national team, Iran national team, Real Madrid, Sporting CP)

6. **Jorge Jesus** (Benfica, Sporting CP, Flamengo, Al-Nassr)

7. **Vitor Pereira** (Porto, Fenerbahçe, Shanghai SIPG, Al-Ahli)

8. **Rúben Amorim** (Sporting CP, Olympiacos)

9. **Paulo Fonseca** (Shakhtar Donetsk, Roma)

10. **Leonardo Jardim** (Monaco, Al Hilal)


This list is based on the number of trophies won by each coach, as well as their overall success in both domestic and European competitions. It is worth noting that this is a subjective list, and there are other Portuguese coaches who could be considered for inclusion.

It's no surprise that he presented a nonsensical proposition without any iota of substance.

Just like his political affiliations based on wind and fresh air and bigotry garnished with tribalism.

typicalgamer:
Truth is self i can’t afford to go into viewing center
Na people mouth i take they hear who score and who they play.

Try f*ck around with this kinda attitude in real life and you gon find out eventually.

Here is a faceless forum you can claim who you want to be, dreaming is free.

Na battery we deh take power the TV for my viewing center.

Eee no easy for us. 😳😳

Joebie:
Oshare make we go start football club for Sapele name Onomah ambassador. Wetin u think?

Onome ( na me get am) would be better .

Who do you think should be captain, Kelechi ❓😧

Joebie:
He should go to Armenia

Will they pay him £30k a week which a number of Championship clubs are considering him for as well as a few EPL clubs.

Besides it's too close to the warzone Russia has created.

Tega Onomah is unemployed.

Refused to sign new contract with Preston North End and now he is a free agent.

I wonder who is going to pay him £30k a week and where ❓

AndSunGorilla:
Is he joining Finidi?

To coach or to play 🤔

Marjoribanks:
Our boys are putting in the work. Bassey, Ndidi, Omeruo and Sadiq are realling putting in a lot of work. Chukwueze, Simon, Oshimen, and Iheanacho are all over the place been irresponsible!
A club like Milan is trying to sign you yet you are all over Nigeria roaming about (Chukwueze).
I have not seen any Oshimen gym video or picture just roaming about with those local content creators (classless). To maintain consistent form/success you have to work harder than you have been doing.

My opinion is that Ndidi, Iheanacho, Aribo and Onuachu should remain in the championship instead of qoing to Turkey or Scotland.
Stay one year and bring your team back to the premier league. I am optimistic that their qualities will show through in the championship. Iheanacho might score 40 goals in that league.

Former top goal 🥅 scorers in the Championship now in the EPL.

Mitrovic 43 goals in the championship in 2021/22 from 44 games the best ever record in the history of the Championship. He scored 14 EPL goals from 24 games after being suspended for 9 plus out for injuries.

Ivan Toney , first season in the Championship 25 goals he scored 20 goals in the EPL 2022/23.

Ollie Watkins scored 15 goals this season in the EPL his best season in the Championship he scored 25.

Look at these forward players above and compare them to KC and you think he will score 40 goals in the Championship.

Barryseal:
Players and valuation these are chalk and cheese. We've seen players valued at 100M not worth anyway near it.
I guarantee you, Brighton are looking at Bassey's profile and not performance. This was the exact Reson MJ wasn't a first draft NBA pick. You claim to be a scout so you should understand what I'm saying.

Awaziem and Omeruo aren't in this discussion. They have their career trajectory and as native Africans, they have done relatively well for themselves. They have both been in the books of Porto and Chelsea. Played at the highest level in Spain and France. I don't really know what you have against them.

First of the inclusion was a retort to those who felt particularly in comparison to Awaziem and Omeruo that Bassey is not good enough.

Awaziem and Omeruo have not done well remove the proviso African. Omeruo never played for Chelsea and Awaziem spent more time in the B team. That says a lot about their supposed quality.

Barryseal:
If not personal bias, who would look at Bassey and think he's decent?

Very simple the person who wants to pay £30 Million for him.

But Awaziem and Omeruo playing in dead Segunda division and obscurity of Croatia are great.

Mujtahida:
You talk too much about something you know very little about. You did not notice that most of the evidence were objected to, with the points of objection reserved for written address stage. Do you know the implications of that? You have already reached conclusion that the evidence is overwhelming. How? By quantity? Is legal evidence determined by quantity? Did you see the evidence yourself? Do you know the legal principles that undergird legal proceedings and election petitions (which even many practicing lawyers do not know how much more you?)

I can only speak with restraint on this case. Calm down oo

The legal profession is unique, win or loose you get paid ,so you can give wrong advice because you will get paid, they will give misleading advice to get paid million this is get paid crazy money 🤑 season for Lawyers in Nigeria.

And when it comes to politicians pursuit for office they think justice ⚖️ can bought which has been proven in Nigeria. Right on the floor of the national assembly.

However, you completely DEVIATE AVOID EVADE the substance of empirical evidence 🧾 and make reference to nonsensical irreverent propositions and dispositions. Lets look at the ludicrous reckless display of impunity and the gargantuan abuse of legal convention and procedure.

1. INEC object's to it's own certified authentic original copy forms.
2. INEC contradicts itself with its own sourced data on BVAS and IRev not aligned to what it presented.
3. INEC refusing to submit to subpoenas for documentation, saying it doesn't have them. Thays not an option it's legal madness, you cannot legally substantiate figures you presented.
4. INEC breaches comprehensively it's own legally binding bye laws.
5. INEC breaches the Electoral Act as amended 2022, on multiple fronts. The umpire breaking the law.
6. Chicago state university under subpoena legally compelled to present an original true copy authenticated and certified of TINUBU university degree certificate. That true copy is dramatically different from the one he submitted to INEC in addition the true certified copy is to a female.
7. Criminal conviction for drug trafficking proceeds, drug trafficking is not a civil offence but criminal.
8. NYSC two different certificate presented one a discharge certificate and the other a exemption certificate. It's impossible for one individual to have t both .
9. Deloitte where he claimed to have worked and earned $1.8 million. Under the compelling legal obligation of a subpoena. Have declared they have absolutely no record of TINUBU at any time ever been in their employment.

These above are not an opinionated preferential based deduction but hard independent unquestionable established FACTS.

Please this is by no means exhaustive just a small snippet. If we were a country that upheld the rule of law he would be in jail.

And yes I studied law amongst other things and my claim to fame is beating a QC in court albeit in the UK. So yes, I have fairly good ideas of what is going on.

Finally a mad man can object to the rain 🌧️🌧️🌧️ falling it will not stop it.

Mujtahida:
That's a military hospital. They are meticulous in keeping records. My file as well as that of our entire family containing substantial part of our medical history (as in before we stopped using the hospital when we grew up and left makurdi) is still intact. And it takes less than 2 minutes to retrieve it. All I need is just to mention my father's service number.

You are talking about the record of one individual hospital not a national data base.

There is a huge difference.

We are talking about national automatic birth data capture that is held in a national institution. This will also be a secure data base .

Danielnino00:
Onyekuru was outstanding in Turkey, EOD!
To you, those boys are "innit boys" not Nigerian origin players because you constantly try to use them to downgrade the home grown Nigerian players here... See how you quickly defended Dele Bashiru move to Turkey..the same Turkey you have rained dog abuses on players like Omeruo and Awazeim for joining..

Your bigoted prejudice blinds you.

Have you seen me commend him Fisayo for going to the retirement league of Europe.

This is not a league for a player considering football progression ⚽

Trying to understand his Fisayo decision is not an agreement with it.

chrisooblog:
I was going to ignore this your comment but it would be foolhardy not to respond to your latest display of intellectual laziness.

Frankly I find it equal parts baffling and annoying that you always bring a sense of shallowness to any discuss that should be stimulating and mutually beneficial.

For the record whatever you think about me is your problem and problem alone. Your thoughts are worth less than tissue paper so you can keep your sanctimonious genuflections to yourself. I won't spam this thread with more political discuss however you're free to tag me here if you have a genuine reason to learn opposing views than gassing yourself up on half baked illogical arguments.

Words enough for the wise.

https://www.nairaland.com/7186774/epl-chatroom-all-discussions/2811

Let me once again deviate on this issue that pertains to the very survival of our nation.

You have denied every substantiated established proven authenticated and even certified fact to anchor ⚓ your entire deduction on emotive sentiment based favouritism and preference.

You are the quintessential Nigerian problem.

yinkeys:
Nwakali hasn’t lived up to expectations
I also remember that really tall goalie at u17 2013 level
Didnt Watch 2015 u17 WC so I don’t know who their first choice goalie was
Where’s Alampasu
Hopefully he shines wherever he is
Awoniyi, Iheanacho, Osimhen & Chukwueze have lived up to expectations
Hoping these guys win leagues
About time a Nigerian wins the UCL
Last player we had that won it all was Kanu
Mikel too

It's an exercise in futility to use youth football exploits to determine future football ⚽ prospects.

At best it's indicative not conclusive.

Joebie:
If I’m not interested I won’t be on this thread. I’m not surprised your extremely low IQ.

You are being too generous,low implies there is some.

charlesemeka85:
yes of course, he is wanted by betis and serie A new boys Cagliari

Liverpool and Ajax interested too but it seem he prefers remaining in Spain and likely to sign for betis

😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣🤣😅😅😅
