This might not be unrelated to the harassment he suffered in the hands of the Nigerian police

Kog45:
Apart from Balogun in the last friendlies others are bunch of average and fact remains Akpoguma failed to live up-to the hypes,so let see Ehzibue first in GWG before you send others packing.

Icon4s:
Have you noticed any remarkable improvement on Simon and Kalu in the last 2yrs? They are even on a decline if you ask me.
The only winger that "may not" have reached his prime is Chukwueze but he too needs to work on his game as he is becoming predictable. I don't count Iwobi as a winger because I don't like the idea of playing him from the wings.

Icon4s:
now we need 4 extra wingers.

I thought some people here once said that we didn't need Bukayo Saka because we have enough Wingers?

We have so many average wingers in that Team. None of the current Wingers can measure up to Victor Moses and Ahmed Musa when they were at their prime.

JorgedeToledo:
He's injured

Tolulopefinest:
Did you watched the world cup?

If yes you'll know that Iran is a very solid team. They play good football. They will beat most African teams even Nigeria .

I mean everybody on my time line should be in Canada, us, France etc any moment from now... Even on this thread Libya, Sudan connect dey, mo4

andrewbaba44:
You sure say Chukwueze get assist ?

Danielnino00:
You are still talking rubbish...

Making commitment to a country is one thing... Applying for a switch of nationality is another thing...

Since how many months did Lookman and Ejaria apply for their switch?

Again, despite your so called knowledge of English football,why are you hell bent on ignoring the fact that it has been mentioned before that it is hard for English born players to switch allegiance because of the process involved...
Why will the NFF be running around to get the players to switch allegiance and then delay it? What's the sense in that??

Wilfred ndidi is 23 and its not compulsory he will join a big club at 23, vvd was almost 28 when he joined liverpool and the rest is history

Partey offers something different from ndidi and arsenal needs something different and thomas should be the cheaper player, not taking his qualities away

Trust me i dont want ndidi at everton even thou they are a better club than leicester, even doucoure and ndidi are 2 different type of players self

But ndidi wont go for 30 million, psg prefer cheap players this days after the neymar purchase , go and check it and see for your self, Gueye made it to a big club at 30 and you are saying such about ndidi who is just 23 ? you need to calm down

Sol bamba was 34 while playing for cardiff in the epl and you expected teams to come for him, bamba was never better than VVD forget that one you dey yarn, you must be deluded for expecting a team like liverpool to go for a 34 year old bamba who boast of just championship experience or others bigger team because you think bamba is a thiago silva, ramos pique or bonucci and some few others (These are players who can get big clubs at their age 33 upward)

Ndidi will not make england team that boast of kalvin phillip of leeds starting and harry winks, with all due respect you are MAD

Harry winks and kalvin phillip are not half the player ndidi is

This guy is just 23 for crying out loud

I for like argue with person wey know ball walai

[s]Unfortunately our preferences are not reflected in the football market.

Ndidi for reasons unknown has not been able to generate interest in his outstanding talent by big clubs, WHY ❓

It's not about price alone.

Arsenal went to go and get Athletico Madrid DM Partey, Everton decided to go for Dacour from relegated Watford. Going back in time even PSG preferred a much older Gueye and paid £30 million for him, than go for a supposed much better Ndidi.

So step back, put aside your emotive preferences and there has to be a reason.

When Cardiff was in the EPL Sol Bamba had better stats than Virgil Van Dyke. But nobody came in for him Bamba he is back in the Championship with Cardiff. The question is Why❓

The decision to buy a player will not test entirely on statistics. Because statistics are indicative and not conclusive, there are many things that are not captured by stats.

With regards to Ndidi, he will not make the England team. His passing range is very limited and his ability to change the game offensively limited. There are other DM who do this much better than him.

Again putting emotive sentiment and national preference aside. However, if he adds s better passing range and tactical game management that they noise game, then he could see himself in a much bigger team. [/s]

[s]I still think without an iota of doubt and or arrogance but plain objectivity he will walk into the SE Midfield.

Will Aribo, Frank Onyeka, Tijani, Iwobi, Agu, Azeez, Ndidi, Seyi, etc displace Rueben Loftus-Cheek in the Fulham team. I very much doubt that.

Bearing that thought in mind because it's obvious you don't have the attribute of objectivity. You jumped with emotive sentiment and negative bias.

This is normal practice in football player rotation, when even Pogba got dropped, or Barkley, did anybody write off these players.

Tega has missed 2 games and you have written him off with rhetorical disdain. Your prejudice is naked. No other Nigerian player will not play a few games and you write off, with celebration.

You should try restrain yourself and get some OBJECTIVITY.

TheSuperNerd:
And it's a goallllll for Chidera Ejukeeeee!!!!

CSKA now up 2-0 in the Moscow derby against Dinamo Moscow.

Ejuke and moscow derbies shaa... First goal came against Spartak Moscow. Now his second has come against another Moscow club. Wetin?

forgiveness:
Lookman was exciting to watch.

We have Moses, Peter and Lookman competing for the LW position.

Subzero047:
No Onomatopoeia even on the bench
They have relegated him where he belongs

Subzero047:
Werey dey disguise

Danielnino00:
Our pressing game today was almost non existent...we didn't even commit enough men forward.. Iwobi appeared to be the only one trying to get the ball to Onuachu..

Seriously,Rohr needs to scout for some more decent midfiders..maybe get Ejaria paperwork done quickly...

Samueltemi337:
Collins na player

Na so una hype idowu but we see where that one end

Samueltemi337:
Like he delivered a good cross or a nice pass

CornOak:
Points to note:

1. The team last played 11 months ago
2. Had training for 3 days before match
3. Several new players
4. Match was a test game with less emphasis on result (highlighted by the coach)
5. Our key players were missing

These points led to:

6. Low team cohesion, communication, and spirit
7. Exposed unwanted players
8. Identified our weak areas ( midfield and set pieces issue which hasn't been solved yet)


Well, the points above are no excuses for the shambolic display. However, we should note that today's match was fairly okay considering these factors. By the way, both teams were not impressive either.

Lastly, the technical crew still has a lot of work to do to bring the team back to order. So I agree with your point about Rohr.

PS: Tunisia beat Sudan 3-0 today.
