So UEFA covers MLS, SPL and Liga MX? I see.

Doea Opta contradict Uefa rankings for European leagues as well?

I repeat your acting like Opta is perfect in their ranking

TheSuperNerd:
Uefa is done for Europe only. Opta covers all leagues.

Opta only compliments Uefa on Uefa teams and leagues but they are global not uefa-limited.

That doesn't mean their ranking is perfect

TheSuperNerd:
Have you finished going thru the link?

Yes, doesn't pacify me..
Please stop acting like a wise man it doesn't suit you please

TheSuperNerd:
He is obviously not willing to read the article link I dropped and neither can he provide his own authoritative rankings.

Na why insults be him go-to game now. Funny Marvin.

So. I should take Opta over uefa
C

Am sorry but telling someone they are babbling is that a compliment or what

TheSuperNerd:
And here comes the insults... predictable.

Please stop acting like a wise master..
Doesn't suit you..
I have conversations here to learn, but sometimes foolishness tends to play much..
I started a gentleman conversation without jabs or insults..
I don't give a fvck about Osimhen or where he plays, it has no value in my life.
But you seem to take the conversation personal..
I pointed out an error between Liga Mx and MLS but you seem to like childish jabs
Highy unnecessary

TheSuperNerd:
Read mister. The link is there. Read and stop your babbles. Seems you enjoy talking than reading.

I see foolishness is rampant here..
Because I don't know what you mean by my babbles, I asked a question if you where of right mind now you would know this conversation isn't a tit for tat convo

TheSuperNerd:
You are already defending the mediocrity of the SPL. I have to consider all the angles.

Then your blind or can't read

UncleHaba22:
I already know where he's going at hence my question to him up there

Spl wey no there stadiums are always empty
All the four top team are owned by same company

My argument is about Liga Mx and MLS..
Spl is low which is understandable

UncleHaba22:
Bring your criteria on what you think the spl has over the mls na simple something na

Am speaking about Liga Mx and MLS on the basis that Liga Mx has been dominating MLS teams, do if Liga Mx has been the dominate force in north America how is MLS rank above it.. Unless you tell me it's about coverage I won't argue

TheSuperNerd:
A detailed article on the Opta Leagues Power Rankings... this one is as recently as March 2024. Digested this since last year ofcos when they released it.

https://theanalyst.com/articles/the-strongest-leagues-in-world-football-opta-power-rankings

What is the creteria..
Or do you just take everything given to you without thought

TheSuperNerd:
You are obviously the only one who follows the MLS, Liga MX and SPL na. So please OptaMarvin, kindly show us the true picture since world renowned Opta is not agreeing with your own picture.

Insults? You are the one acting like you know all the leagues in the world and have a more authoritative take than Opta. So show us...

If you think this is about spl vs mls
Nevermind the conversation

TheSuperNerd:
Okay OptaMarvin. Come up with your own details-laden world class leagues rankings.

Is it that most of you don't know how to have a gentleman conversation or you just decide to be insultive..
You brought opta Ranking and I said that ranking is not painting the correct picture this opta Ranking was brought up in the ESPN show today they had this argument that they did not understand the criteria of opta..
Have been following MLS for years and no time has MLS in anyway been stronger than Liga Mx..
Even spl and MLS is questionable..
Is it the MLS that's struggling to get football stadiums that is higher than Liga mx

TheSuperNerd:
Optaanalyst and Opta stats are the protagonists on this. Honestly I think, on a general level, and I quote, they make their calculations by taking the average power ranking for every team in the respective divisions/leagues, which helps inform them about the relative strength of the competition.

At the specifics... I know not but Saudi Pro League is ranked 33rd in the world league rankings according to Opta.

Before pif I would say yes that only al Hilal in the spl is strong but currently the top 8 in spl wipes the floor with MLS, I follow both leagues
Liga Mx that's wiping the floor with MLS teams that opta ranks about Liga Mx..
Wonders

Odunayaw:
MLS ranking over Liga MX even Championship? How dem de calculate am

That Ranking is rubbish MLS stronger than. Liga Mx how

TheSuperNerd:
Facts to note:

In Opta's World Leagues power rankings, the MLS is ranked #9, higher than the English Championship and even the Dutch Eredivisie.

Italian Serie B in 19th is ranked higher than the Saudi Pro League.

Infact, SPL is not ranked near top 20 leagues in the world.

This will be the new realities for our best player. Ofcos with 45M euros hitting the accts yearly.

You can tell me anything but if you tell me MLS is better than spl that's incorrect..
What is the criteria for opta in rating a league

Napoleon55:
Do I really want someone like u to reply me?
Pls don't, I prefer those who are objective and logical, not some wannabes.

Ok

Napoleon55:
For u as an African man,u believe u become wealthy only by earning fat wages.
How much is to lower his wages self? to $30k or $50k?
We are talking about to $200k,but u want me think u have his best interest at heart .
How many African players are earning $200k?
Rodri a Ballon d'or winner earns £220k.

I'm of the opinion he should be paid well,but he should not make a hasty decision and chase after quicker cash,there is still time to make even bigger money than what he is being offered now.

By the way,if u were smart enough, u would have noticed that the post u quoted should be viewed as a sarcasm.

I wanted to give you a reply but your last statement shows your not worth the reply

robosky02:
Osimhen between 2 options

Europe or Asia

Greatness or money

The long run or thee immediate

Champions league for a full season or club world cup for few days

Limelight of moonlight


Osimhen future can be crashed in few days or be secured for postarity

I remember Brazilian Oscar at the peak of his career left Chelsea to China for mega money

Today his name is nowhere in football history or Brazilian himaak44444⁴[sub][/sub]


Osimhen has the potential to beat Rashidi Yekini goal records in Nigeria
Samuel Etoo record in Africa
George Weah Ballondor record
to become African greatest


But hiss decision will make or Mar it



He has

Oscar never told you he was after glory, Oscar was honest that he wanted security for he's family, did Oscar tell you he regretted he's decision, every human have what drives them, example Ruben neves said the only trophy he cared about is he's family so he took the suadi deal, so your gonna tell him that he's gonna regret putting he's family first..
Please think and stop this entitled behavior

Napoleon55:
Don't act as if u are not aware that it was someone from this thread that gave him the advice that shaped his career.

If not for Komekn who advised him at that time to leave Bundesliga and Wolfburg to a lower league and work his way up,he would still be be languishing in Bundesliga by now,but he took his advice, now he is superstar.

Now he is in situation where a sound advice without sentiment is needed, some of us believes on the long run,it will be better for him if he choose to remain in Europe even if it means lowering his wages for a while to play for a top club now and in his 30s he can go to Saudi Arabia.

He should lower he's wages, blacks are their worst enemies
Kvra didn't even do half of what Osimhen has done in he's career but he's earning more than Osimhen now yet you want him to reduce he's salary out of desperation

Setaleonoz:
Na the bad company weh osimhen dey keep dey worry am …. Which future is has he not secured already?

The money he earns from napoli/gala is very huge

he is just greedy and lack ambition at the moment

Where was Cubana chief priest and the likes when osimhen was languishing in Wolfsburg

Osimhen should use his head

The level of entitlement in this statement makes me wonder if you bought him boot

Subzerooo:
I feel like Osimhen would have taken better decisions if he was educated

This statement is stupid...
You guys are acting like he owes you something, he doesn't owe anybody anything..
Where you the one that bought he's football boot or what impact do you have in he's life to feel this entitled

I believe some of you must be toxic in your relationships wtf is all this hate and unnecessary opinion on Osimhen life

Blacks are their own worst enemy..
Some of the things am reading as advice to Osimhen makes me want to vomit..
Most of you are so hot for the epl or big clubs that you would let your own lick their boot just for them to allow him play for them
Tufiakwa.
So if Chelsea or man u say they will pay him 100k una go advice an to kneel Down to collect it

TheGoodJoe:
Wrong move as far as I am concerned. Osimhen should have signed a short deal on reduced wages in a big club. Yes it is unfair that Europeans that are not as good as him can command big wages but to get himself on a platform to prove his greatness, taking a huge pay cut would have been the best option.

After proving himself on a big stage, he can push for a better deal or even move to cash out in a place like Saudi Arabia. At this time, a big platform is what Osimhen needs, not money.

My advice to him, do whats best for him and he's family and leave fans talk

TheSuperNerd:
Bruno Fernandes is 30 and still saying no to Saudi for now. Amazing mentality.

He's family didn't want to move

yinkeys:
Congrats to Victor Osimhen

Make I find trouble small

Gala for win UEL instead of Tottenham
His partner in crime at Napoli just won UCL
He should leave that Gala club ASAP, take a pay cut for 4 years just before the transfer window ends
He should sacrifice since clubs ain’t coming for him, go to big club and win the ultimate trophy
He should pack his bags & leave Europe to Saudi when he turns 31

The way some of you talk makes me wonder..
He should reduce he's salary because he's that desperate abi

TheSuperNerd:
It is not about his earnings. It is about his football potential and his Super Eagles future. That is what I am concerned about. What gives you the right to question my wishes as a fan of the Super Eagles?

The same way you don't have the right to dictate the path another human follows to better himself how he sees fit..
You concern is of no importance to him and he's family, if it was he won't have accepted the deal..
Human beings will do whats best for them..
Fans are selfish I understand..

TheSuperNerd:
Victor Boniface not going to Saudi Arabia is best news tonight for me.

He has what it takes to be Absolutely world class and he was on the verge of running to haram league?? God forbid these nightmares.

Thank you Jhon Duran.

What gives a man the right to tell another man what he earns for him and he's family is enough and he shouldn't aspire to make more how he sees fit..

I have never understood this logic

yinkeys:
Saudi pro league is a funny league
With all that money, empty stadiums when teams play
They should find a way to bring football fans from other countries in.
I watched highlights of Ighalo & Ekong play
Don’t players find it a bit boring when stadiums are empty
Same with NPFL, some teams need to do better with PR & marketing
Even though people are going through tough times
Better they drop their gate fees to 1k or 500 than having empty stadiums

Aside the top 4 or maybe 6 the rest are struggling with attendance..
Different factors
Weather and ticket prices
