Leading praise and worship on the bus lol.

Truth is KC can be a reliable source of goals for the SE when in form.

I don't know if you have noticed KC has not been in form for over three seasons and has only been in form once in his career in 2021.

Prior to that he has never scored more than 5 league goals in a season since 2016/17

Mujtahida:
Rest. Try de rest

Try to use intelligence

elyte89:
Zaidu will return once he’s match fit …d big club name status will help him.

Zaidu is a liability with poor quality and zero football ⚽ intelligence.

yinkeys:
Zaidu may not return because of Onyaemachi’s form lol
Appears he has that 3 on lock
Joe Aribo needs to improve at Southampton too
Even Alhasan Yusuf made the cut ahead of Aribo

On what basis Alhassan has descended to MLS that's the bottom of the pit.

Bannedlargejr:
75 million release clause only racism or attitude can stop him from not playing for a marquee club next season

Racism 🤔

Think again please

solonnachi:
Among Sadiq Umar, Cyril Desser and Taiwo Awoniyi who would you pick?

Cyril on current form.

elyte89:
Same reason iheanacho is still been invited..it’s purely on club name status ,had it been he was playing for one 2nd division team ,he won’t get any invite again

KC has been impotent for the past three seasons and now Sevilla agbo and Viagra are still not working for him.

They want to offload him asap .

KC has no basis to be in the SE alongside his other team mate Sadiq 26 games and 3 goals in la Liga last season, 7 games this season and not one league goal 🥅.

maidaboi:
Ihenacho and Sadiq the only bad pick

Well done Coach Austin

Add Alhassan to the list as well.

Dude has descended to MLS has no business before and now being in the SE.

Too many better and promising midfielders available and much better than him

Bannedlargejr:
Leave the young man alone wth

You should read my post properly,it has NOTHING personally to do with Kelechi Nwakali.

But those who fed us a shameless deceit ridden meal of misinformation and disinformation relentlessly for 8 years.

They know themselves delusional and bigoted claiming to be football ⚽ analysts.

Even insulting anybody who challenged the nonsensical propositions they were presenting.

They should all bury their head's 🗣️ in shame 🤫🤫

ChrisKels:
UK dun cast bro. UK at the moment is just another Italy. The country has been messed up real bad.

You must have lived, worked and possibly studied here in the UK giving you both formal and informal knowledge to make such a profound statement.

Can I ask which UK universities you studied at and where in the UK does your professional experiential knowledge emanate from please 🥺

The midfield general maestro extraordinair the solution to the SE midfield problem. The extra ordinary talent look at how LOW he has gone.

There are people here claiming to be football ⚽ analysts with knowledge and insider information. Who put Kelechi Nwakali on a delusional pyramid of excellence. Feeding us this nonsensical proposition for 8 years.

Some took me to task saying I was wrong when l said he would not get into a English League one team. Calling me HATER , etc.

Well he has played one game for Barnsley and has been demoted to the U21 .

This is not about Nwakali but the deliberate misinformation and disinformation presented here by many continuously for 6/8 years non 🛑 stop.

ChrisKels:
I don't bank on kids born and bred abroad. The only players I have my money on are the players born/bred in Nigeria and moved abroad because of football

Bigoted tribalist steeped in double standards and garnished with bitter leaf 🌿 soup 🍲 and stale dry fish 🐟.

comodo:
So no more good players play in better clubs and get better contracts.
You really sabi how to confuse thunder. I never knew that some poor players can be lucky contract wise.

It happens all the time , you sign a long term contract and club think's 🤔you are going to be top quality and a year later you are mediocrity personified.

However, you still have your contract and your increments and clauses so the club are essentially stuck with you.

Rhian Brewster classic example sold for £23 million on a 5 year deal but only played 79 games in 5 season but only 4 league goals.

He has a lucrative contract and that will end this season and he will have find another club. But his pedigree is very poor and nobody will pay big money for him.

So he will have to reinvent himself and probably go abroad maybe Turkey.

kingphilip:
Chief of goalposts shift is that you?

But you didn't tell us stat is indicative and not final you only asked of just one and only one place where you used stat to defend a player and they made that available.

Stop shifting goalposts bikonu.

I am not 🚫 shifting any goal 🥅 posts you are , changing your narrative.

KC has been consistently poor since he left the comfort of top level players at Manchester city. After 7 seasons at Leicester City he had one good season in 2021 scoring 12 goals but the 6 other seasons he has not been able to score more than 5 goals.

Is that the attributes of a top quality striker or the opposite.

Jieta2:
This is you here, year in year out you have use stat to drag ihenacho like tiger generator.

Statistics are indicative but taken in conjunction with other variables in including TIME you get a full picture of the player ability .

And over a decade we can safely say that KC is a well below striker and or forward player. Many will call him very poor.

However, I think he has been very fortunate contract wise and is laughing 😁 all the way to the bank. 🏦

Subzerooo:
I know if I search your posts I will see were you are using statistics to disparage one of our home grown players

I challenge you to present with date and time please 🥺

Goke7:
Once another player is in a bigger club than a Nigerian many folks on this thread automatically believe that player must be better.

Whether it’s self hate or inferiority complex I don’t even understand. Doku am sure to them is even better than Lookman. Weird

There is absolutely nothing wrong with that proposition, better players end up in better club's it's that simple.

Poor quality player's end up in lower level clubs.

Football ⚽ is not just statistics alone and in this regard Doku is better than Moses Simon IMO.

Goke7:
Napoli did our guy dirty but we move. Dude is surely bigger than the league. Am just happy he's playing regular football and that's what matters the most

Are you saying that 🤯 VO is bigger than Seria A ❓

Jefersoun:
He is right to some extent. As a striker you need to score goals or else them go dey look you with one bad eye🤨.
To me Osimhen needs to step down his intensity a bit because it's causing him frequent injury. He is straining his muscles alot.

But that's his most essential ingredient, playing with relentless blind rage and determination there is NOBODY like him.

He is not the most technically gifted or skilful but he works so hard to get the job done ✅ he engineers success through hard obsessive work.

If he doesn't play with that crazy intensity then you've taken away his essential DNA 🧬 unique selling point for competitive advantage. And he will become very ordinary.

BankyGee:
That last line tho

Osimhen doesn't have a competitor when it comes to work rate as a centre-forward. When he said he's worth more than €100M, he wasn't capping and it wasn't pride as Finidi FC and Twitter dumbbbheadds tried to paint it.

That's a statement of a person who knows his worth and what he can give you!

Work rate is an essential attribute for excellence but it's not the only one.

If you think you are worth £200 million but nobody is willing to pay it for you. It says there is a need for a reality check ✅.

Napoleon55:
Pls explain how u arrived that I was filled with hate from what I wrote.

You of all people should commend my objectivity for balancing the way we rate our own players to others,isn't what u have always advocate for?

Lookman had a fantastic season but Certainly not top 3,that's being objective not hate.

I don't think anyone have any reason to hate Lookman so why would I.
Lookman is one of my best super eagles players that I respect especially the way he switched to us without noise.

Is it because he is foreign born?
Explain.

Dude 😎 I am being sarcastic humourously.

Napoleon55:
It's OK to support our own,Lookman has been one of the best performers,
But he is not on top 5,placing him on top 3 is overestimation.

It's alright to be patriotic but some of u should also understand that Nigeria footballers are not the only ones who play football.

You are filled with HATE .

EEGA:
They were credited with an interest but did not back it up with a bid.

He was valued in the region of 18million euros last summer but has seen his stock rise to 30 million euros after impressing in the UCL this season.

But unfortunately nobody was willing to meet the valuation of Brugge FC.

Whats the point of having a valuation that nobody is willing to meet.

EEGA:
When last did you watch Onyedika?

He is Club Brugge's most impactful player this season.His goals in the play offs last season help them win the pro league(about 5 goals).

Onyedika has improved tremendously.

Please watch his last three Champions league game and come back for us to argue.

In a full match a long time ago.

"Most impactful player" that is a very subjective and opinionated deduction which is usually self birthed.

We make these over exaggerated claims that seem to have only support on this forum nowhere else.

If he was so good why is he still there ❓

Clubs are offering way less than the expectations of Brugg FC tells us how he is valued in the open market. That means he is not rated as high as you think 🤔

jihday:
Mbappe was caught offside 8 times against Barcelona

By how many centimetres ❓on each occasion.

er uote author=AndSunGorilla post=132545906]Tanimu on the bench again. Nwakali not listed, not sure if he picked up an injury while on the bench in the last game.[/quote]Maybe he had been sitting on the bench for so long and fell off the chair and injured himself.

However, it worked the manager compassionately gave him his first game of the season in the league as a substitute.

He was generous I think he got more than five minutes oh Wow

EEGA:
Pls Onyedika is very talented, has the potential to play for the top three clubs in Italy,Spain and England but must discipline himself.

I think this is his second red card this season.In their last Jupiter league match we saw him reacting angrily at a sub in the 83rd minute against Westerloo.Today he is picking up a red in a champions league game against Milan.

He should learn to control his anger.As this can stop him from being the best super Eagles holding midfielder of all time.

For now, he is currently at par with Mikel.

Dude 😎 you are getting gassed and over hyping comparing Mikel to Onyedika is delusional.

Sugarboyy:
We all know he is not better than Ekong
If he comes, he can replace Ajayi either on the bench or when we are playing a 3 man defence

Who is "we all know"

Talk for yourself and in your small biased perspective.

semid4lyfe:
You're wrong sir.

The players who tweeted mentioned not having internet access

They wouldn't have made that complain if they could have easily roamed their phones and latched on to Network Providers in the area

Someone provided internet access for them and from the account of the Nigerian Foreign Minister and the NFF, it was the Head of the Nigerian Community in Benghazi.

My phone gives me the option to roam anywhere in the world with few exceptions like North Korea etc and I expect it will be the same with all these players.

It's still very simplistic ROAMING I use EE in the UK below the roaming rates for Libya etc

Do you still think 💬 I am wrong ❓

semid4lyfe:
Just watched this Ola Aina's vlog.

Truly. It made me smile and laugh.

In all their shenanigans. the Libyans made a costly mistake by not blocking nternet access..

The internet access allowed us to escalate the issue via social media, and they effectively lost the info war.

By the way. was it the airport WIFI the players were using or were they given local sims with internet access? How were they able to access the internet?

Roaming very simple

typicalgamer:
The fact that Alex is our 10 makes me question our coaches a player that hasn’t played the number 10 role since he left the academy it’s just 😆 funny o

Alex is not him, the flair, the eye for a pass, and the from time screamer doesn’t come from him

The fact that our coaches aren’t breeding any number just shows they wanna keep this core group tiger and are afraid to experiment

In general in today's football the number 10 position has become obsolete.

codemaniacs:
S.E as a team has better strikers than any club Ejuke has ever played for.. Ejuke will thrive in the current S.E.

Move iwobi to CM.
Let Lookman play SS/AM behind Boniface.
Put Simon on LW
Put Ejuke on RW.

Or even though it won't be wise... bench Lookman and let Chukwueze play SS/AM

Chukwueze is more creative than iwobi for the S.E.

havinng Simon, Chukwueze, Ejuke and Iwobi on the pitch can favor the S.E

That would be complete disaster
