Striker's well outstanding ones are always on the move, because there is an incessant demand for strikers across all leagues.

Why then has he remained in the Segunda Division for two seasons.
Because Almeria put a hefty price tag on him.
In fact, a lot of clubs (including villareal were interested. Villareal could have brought him if not for the thirty million price tag
and so they brought the Senegalese guy from France instead.
Another bidding war is comming up next summer and even this January Newcastle are interested.
He has been noticed and analyzed by a lot of clubs allready.
His analysis is on
https://totalfootballanalysis.com/article/umar-sadiq-at-almeria-202122-scout-report-tactical-analysis-tactics
which is a respected football analysis platform.
Many teams are interested.
In fact Man city are interested but they want to loan him to troyes in the French league for a year first
and so next summer will be big for him

Sanusi Vs Benfica, joint second highest rated player
There are several people here who say Zaidu Sanusi is not goo enough and lacks positional intelligence
but he keeps entering the first team of porto despite competition from wendel.
I dont understand but i believe he must be a good player to be in porto first team and play so many matches a season.
He even had 2 key passes in this match which shows he can create chances

Sadiq Umar Don land for camp
Eguavon chose Sadiq Umar because of his creativity.
He is a creative forward with 7 assists allready this season.
A team that struggles to create chances from midfield needs a creative forward like Sadiq Umar.
He can play a a support striker, wing forward, striker and made to roam the final third
while he scores goals and creates chances.
people here wont see things this way and claim he is not good.
But skillset matters in football.
What a player has to offer and how he fits into the system
can be more important than where he plays.
In fact, Man city were once interested in him which shows how technically astute and creative he is.
Guardiola cannot like a player that is not creative and technical

Iheanacho brimming with confidence. Loving it
Iheanacho at his best is world class.
I mean it.
If he can be consistent, serious and dedicated he is at the level of the Mohammed Salahs, Ibrahimovic etc of this world
He just needs that run of game time

I am talking about the AFCON which Keshi won. The football we played as the game progressed improved.

With respect to offensive football, Manu Garba and his team really delivered in 2013. Those guys made it look effortless. I agree it is a shame we did not build on such amazing trajectory we had then.
i think the failure of our youth players to make it to the big stage is partly due to the failure of our local league.
if we had a good league, we will develop these players ourselves and sell them to clubs in the top leagues of Europe like
belgium and holland.
They will not have to go and rot away in obscure leagues like the Latvian league.
They can spend 2 to 5 years in our league and from there to to clubs like twente, Eupen etc.
We really need to develop our league.
Our talented players are rotting away in obscure leagues because of this.

We already have enough decent wingers, rather we add Calvin Bassey
Ademola Lukman should replace either of Moses Simon or Ahmed Musa in the wings or attack.
Simon lacks motivation for laying for us while Musa is living on past glory

TheGoodJoe:

You are the one jumping in circles here. The point is simple the coach wants a skill set from his midfielder. How you understand that as the only quality, or the important quality, or attributes of a midfielder is baffling.

It is a skill he wants his midfielder to have. Kelechi Nwakali has the skill. The coach wants to work with him in camp to see if he can bring him up to speed to make the cut.

How that worries you guys baffle me.

The coach has his philosophy and Nwakali has a skill important to him. It is simple. Not only skill. It depends on the playing pattern. Finito.
With nwakali a 4 4 2 formation may be possible. He and ndidi can Marshall the midfield. Chidera ejuke can play as a false winger who sometimes comes to the middle.
There are many options possible.
Look our lack of tactical depth is why Small teams embarrass us.
We need nwakali skill set.
One small team iwobi a false covid report because they realized that our midfield revolves around him and once he is not there we might struggle to create chances.
Other teams can read us like a book and nullify us and nwakali offers something different.
I'm tired of this.
Club football rating is not everything. Onuachu and Moses Simon made us realize that.
Every great team always has a dark horse or surprise player.
People here should try and see things our way.
Midfield control is fundamental to football and if you can win the midfield you have won 50% of the match. Nwakali offers midfield control and can even make the job easier for iwobi if they play together.
Time will prove me right

He is now FIFA errand boy and right hand man in Africa. Infantino is very close to him, he even gets to represent him in some occasions...
This may put him in a bad light amongst other africa FAs and CAF. He could be a saboteur being that the western countries want a postponement or cancellation of CAF and him being close to thjs western block can be used to achieve this plans

Pinnick is playing a dangerous politics while using the NFF as the ladder to achieve his personal ambition
Pinnick supports the move that the world cup should be every 2 years and he is FIFA messenger to Africa on this agenda. I think he is agreeing to the postponment of afcon due to his support for 2 year world cup

I'm not going to be suddenly comfortable with enikeni cos of they worked with someone. We can't repeat Rohr mistake. Besides its SE, the big brand here. Names that doesn't look it should not get it. We are suddenly trusting this guy due to the sugarcoating of Mou? I think Pinnick deliberately did this so we Nigerians will overlook sentimentally. Everyone trusting cos its Mou.


Even Pep and Klopp have made silly decisions at a point in time. I dunno why Mou's word is suddenly Platinum here. Not like he understands African football philosophy, etc.


Same old mistake.

Naso dem hype Lagerback with Tactician tag. Baba just dey touchline dey fold ams dey look like Lost Santa Claus.



Never Again!!!!
The sports minister should knock some sense into Amaju pinnick.
He should be forced to accept Eguavon as the coach to Afcon or nothing else.
Caf might even sanction us if we dont submit our final 28 man list on time.
Sunday Dare should act fast and stop Amaju pinicks childish, corrupt tantrums
