BascoVanVeli:Naahh... he isn't greedy... this was a difficult game... He wasnt even getting into the central area, no thanks to the mexican's defense and lack of support from chukweze... It was a difficult game |
Now I understand why chukwueze didn't even start the opening game... He could go missing in games... He had an especially poor first half but came alive alittle during the second period... he could just become a di maria blowing hot and cold.... hope he become more consistent... |
TheSuperNerd:I think ...TheSuperNerd.... is more funny.... Hw about that.. |
I in no way supports e-wars or call e-jostling on forums cos I feel it is utterly unnecessary. However, I am awed by how people could take things so personal on online forums... Guys!!!.. you can make arguments but dont take things personal.... why would anyone sweat over an online jibe... *hisses* ( tink I need to learn hissing) I really find it funny.. |

Hyperactivity on this thread... It all about PROFESSIONALISM When you act and behave within the ambit of your professional ethics with a keen drive for success, then you become a role model for others.. The football profession has evolved over the past few decades... With the increase interest of footballers in giving signatory to endorsement deals from various wares promoters and other companies, every footballer wanna be *sellable* Thus looking good is good business... Ronaldo, Kaka et al have been highest earners from endorsement deals cos they are handsome. As long as players keep providing the *goods*, hairstyles is no issue... I remember the crazy hairstyle of ronaldo delima and the brazilian team in the 2002 WC... However, IMO..extravagant hairstyles for u 17 Players could be a distration... Shaveoff their hair... what do they know?... When they become professionals they can go gaga.. who cares? |
safarigirl:Hit him in the jugular... Knock him out... Miss safari.... Name joke I dey oo |
Osimhen is a cheat.... Nigeria playing with Osimhen isn't fair play... The guy is too strong...he is a two in one... Nigeria should henceforth play with 10 visible players whenever they have osimhen on the pitch... |
Icon4s:He is the best player... Chukwueze is the best out.field player.... That guy is too good... His touches are clean... Wonder why I never heard of him pre-tournament |

[quote author]Iheanacho good enough for first team shirt - Pellegrini [img]http://isoccerng.com/files/thumb/26d9820b5a79e95/614/330/fit[/img] Manuel Pellegrini believes Kelechi Iheanacho has been good enough to play for Manchester City for a year and was only prevented from doing so by injury. The striker stood out in Wednesday's 5-1 win against Crystal Palace in the Capital One Cup as he scored one goal and assisted two others. That followed his late winner as a substitute against Palace in a Premier League match at Selhurst Park in September, while he also had a goal harshly disallowed in the recent 5-1 thrashing of Bournemouth. The 19-year-old has excited City fans with his early displays but his performances have come as no surprise to manager Pellegrini as he prepares for this weekend's meeting with Norwich. He said: "He didn't impress me because I work with him every day, so I know what he can give to our team. Last season I think he was ready to do it. We talked about his work permits but unfortunately for him he had a very serious injury in his ankles. "That is why he couldn't play last season. Now he is ready and I am very happy for him to demonstrate what he can do. But it is just one game, he must repeat, he must improve. In the way he demonstrates what he can do, of course he has an option to start. It is not an easy position to start in this team because we have important players like David (Silva), like Kun (Aguero). But in this moment they are not fit and for me it just depends on the performance of the players who start." City have several injury absentees for their game with Norwich, but Pellegrini is hopeful of having everyone back by the time the next international break has passed. That includes Sergio Aguero, who is missing at present alongside David Silva, Samir Nasri, Fabian Delph, Gael Clichy and Pablo Zabaleta. Pellegrini added: "I never complain about the amount of players that are injured but we have too many players (injured). To continue playing this way and winning is very important for the trust that the squad have and I hope during the international break we will have all the players (back). I always say we have a squad, we don't have a team. It's impossible with just a team to try to win silverware. You need a strong squad." isoccerng.com/news/2015/10/iheanacho-good-enough-for-first-team-shirt-pellegrini[/quote]Wrongly.. That's the right word in stead of the bolded... His goal was wrongly disallowed |
Yeah... I sent it |
I have seen it |
Ok |
BascoVanVeli:In my opinion, NZ caused his dip in form.... The worst was ..he didn't even make the best use of his time at NZ... No thanks to Manu & Co... He needs some break... He'll come good |
tbaba1234:or a Chelsea's Fabragas |
Sir Icon4s... Please go interview Eguavoen again and let see if he now know better.. |
When is the next u20 competition?... Sir Joseph ..you can create a thread for that already.. Osimhen and co.. Should go fight for that... Regardless of their result today, not much of my feelings for this team change.. Can they win the tournament?... Possible Can they crash out today?... Possible |
joseph1013: . Sure in place |
They lack some discipline... Hope they put it together tonight... Let them start preparing for u20 |
Icon4s:I have not watched any of their games in this competition except some highlights.. If they make it to the next round good..if not them try.. |
Sorry please, is this the thread for the golden eaglets or another one |
Icon4s:Out of respect for Mr. Eguavoun it would be very unrully to employ any "knife edge'' adjective in expressing my feelings vis-a-vis his spurious submissions as informed by this quote... Calling Nacho a "baby" is totally out of taste and unacceptable... It a shame that he ( Eguaveoun) in making these unguarded utterances only reveal even more clearly that he-like many Nigerian coaches- suffers from a reality glaucoma. They claim to know the game but are inept even of the basics.... Smh |
Iheanacho & touchline fireworks - Five things we want to see from Manchester City on Wednesday Oct 28, 2015 7:00:00 AM With Crystal Palace in town for the League Cup, Manuel Pellegrini has the perfect opportunity to bring in some exciting young players, writes Sam Lee. Manchester City is back in League Cup action Wednesday and it could be a tough task against Alan Pardew's Crystal Palace.While Manuel Pellegrini picked a very strong side in the previous round, there's an opportunity to rotate and bring in some exciting youngsters at the Etihad.And with United playing at home — and Middlesbrough bringing thousands of traveling fans — we just hope plenty of City fans brave the roads and the Metrolink to see their team. Here are five things we want to see Wednesday ... KELECHI IHEANACHO Even if he scores 10 goals this season, I'll still be annoyed about that poor offside call at the end of the Bournemouth match that denied Kelechi a stunning chip. The result was way beyond doubt by that point, but that type of goal can launch a career. The 19-year-old Nigerian barely needs any more hype around him, but had that strike rightly stood, it would have been two Premier League goals in 34 minutes of action. His first, of course, came in dramatic circumstances against Crystal Palace back in September, so why not give him a run out from the start against the same opposition?It would be harsh to criticize Pellegrini for being cautious in the derby — I praised his defensive outlook in the aftermath — but Iheanacho was only given seven minutes at Old Trafford. You felt that had he been introduced sooner, he would have given the United defense something different to deal with. The City boss is probably right to hold Kelechi back from the limelight as much as possible, but these games are the perfect opportunity to rotate. He's certainly ready. GIVE YOUTH A CHANCE And why stop there? Pellegrini brought on three youngsters in the last round against Sunderland and moreopportunities for City's brightest talents would be very welcome.Patrick Roberts, Manu Garcia and George Evans were all given senior debuts, of sorts, against the Black Cats. Evans, who only had a minute to show off his talents, has since gone on loan to Walsall, where he has scored twice in two games. But Roberts, who had 35 minutes to catch the eye, is perhaps the most exciting youngster behind Iheanacho and is a candidate to start Wednesday.A few days after the win in the northeast he was thrown to the lions at the end of the defeat at Tottenham, where he had just six touches of the ball in four minutes. At least you could say it was character building.He's been catching the eye in City's youth teams and in September scored the above fantastic individual effort against Juventus in the UEFA Youth League.Starting both Roberts, 18, and Iheanacho, 19, could well be the limit of Pellegrini's adventurous streak, but others can expect substitute appearances.Manu Garcia and Brandon Barker have been on the bench for Premier League matches this season and could be handed some minutes in the cup. Garcia, 17, has earned a reputation as a David Silva-lite since joining from Sporting Gijon and even went on City's preseason tour.Ahead of the last round against Sunderland, he acknowledged he was excited by the prospect of making his first-team debut — and he did just that with 16 minutes to go."In all honesty, I didn’t expect to go on tour with the first team, but things went really well and I’m really happy with the way things are going," Garcia said. "The Capital One Cup is a competition that is really exciting for all the younger players because we know there is a possibility that we could play and maybe show what we are capable of. It’s really positive, not just for me, but for the Club."Let's hope they get their chance Wednesday. RAHEEM STERLING TO STEP UP One youngster who is way past youth team appearances is Raheem Sterling, but he's certainly got some work to do for the senior side.It was hoped the hat trick against Bournemouth would be a turning point after some difficult performances, but he was anonymous against Sevilla and Manchester United.It is important to remember that he is still just 20 years old, and he has played an awful lot of football in the past two seasons.That will pose something of a quandary for Pellegrini, who must decide whether to give Sterling the chanceto take on some added responsibility as a senior player should he line up alongside the likes of Roberts and Iheanacho, or give him a rest all together.Sterling had one of his better games against Sunderland in the last round, picking up a goal and an assist, and the opportunity to involve himself in a battle against one of Palace's forward-thinking wingers could be exactly what he needs. A WIN ... AND MAYBE SOME SIDELINE FIREWORKS OK, so we all want to see the young lads play — but a win would be nice for the club too.Alan Pardew knocked City out at the same stage last season while in charge of Newcastle, and he might beconfident of doing so again.Palace is a good counterattacking side, and City's attacking approach should give it plenty of chances on the break.Pellegrini set his men up well at Old Trafford on Sunday, but don't expect him to have become a pragmatistovernight — City will most likely flood forward against Palace as it normally does in this competition.Victory on Wednesday would seal a place in the quarterfinals and, after City chairman Khaldoon Al Mubarak expressed his disappointment with the team's lack of trophies recently, any silverware will be very welcome for Pellegrini this time around.And don't forget the rivarly between the two managers. The Chilean is not often riled but Pardew really does seem to get under his skin. The two memorably clashed at St. James' Park in 2014 when the then Magpies boss branded his opposite number a ... well, I'm sure you remember.They were at it against at Selhurst Park in September when Pellegrini was not too happy about Pardew's sideline remonstrations.Knocking the Londoners out of the competition, then, would be very sweet indeed. ENOUGH FANS IN THE STADIUM TO ENJOY IT For the first time since 2009, United and City are both playing at home on the same night ... and plenty of locals are dreading it.With the Red Devils making the top tier of Old Trafford's east stand available to traveling fans in the cup, Middlesbrough has taken full advantage and is expected to bring up to 10,000 supporters with it.With traffic on the Mancunian Way still disrupted thanks to September's sinkhole, and the Metrolink lines bound to be rammed, many City fans could do without the hassle. http://m.goal.com/x/en-us/news/85/england/2015/10/28/16752622/iheanacho-touchline-fireworks-five-things-we-want-to-see |
