On this occasion l can find reason to agree with you.
I agree but the thing is victor moses came in when there was a lack of quality players in the super eagles.
Right now we have better players and so we dobt desperately need him even though he might be better than them.
At that time he was the only one thats all. Now we have chidera ejuke and many others

In jesus name you shallbpeospee and play for real madrid. Gid will put your enemies to shame. I pray that Gos favour will shine on you and you will start getting regular game time for sd huesca.

It's not about the style of play rather the lack of abilities for the style of play

KC scores well done.

He is slowly dragging himself from anonymity he has scored 5 goals in the EPL this season not great but it's an improvement.

Ighalo coming on to join the party, can he score today his first goal in the EPL this season.
1 he is on double digits
2 if the goals are taken by minutes it is 10 goals in 12 matches and not necessarily 22.
3 he is improving
4 you dont give up on players. Jammy vardy was mediocre until 26.

So what should we do because our Nigerian league is wack
Our football academies will make up for that. Most of our home grown players are products of football academies and grassroots football. Stuff like that is growing fast in nigeria. Calm down

Agreed without reservation.

Players need to be honest with themselves.

However, one big problem which is WERE DEH MONEY DEHhuhhuh

Apart from the top La Liga clubs money is not that high.

Most top 6 Championship clubs will out pay and out spend any club below position 8 on La Liga.
What most Nigerian players (locally born) dont realize is that if you do well in a mid-table club in a top 5 league
you might end up in a big club because of your experience. Its happening to chukqueze and osimhen.
Chukwueze is wanted by atletico madrid because they beleive he has experience playing in la liga. This happened to Braithwaite and
he is in Barcelona.
Osimhen might also move to a big club. Game time and performance in a decent league is very important. The Spanish and English leagues are ranked at the same level by the authorities.
Look at Samuel Chukwueze. If he stays 2 more years in Villareal, he could move to a big club in Spain or Italy because they beleive he has experience playing in the league. He might end up in Barcelona if they keep having problems with players flopping (with his experience in la liga football). This is what happened to Ighalo. I guess they thought he had experience of playing in the premier league and spain and this counted for him.

Sayin he has gone to La Liga is not to say the Championship is better. But that he couldn't cope with the physicality and intensity.

Etebo is now thriving in La Liga it is clearly easier for him.

He made the right choice he realised that this league is not for him.
I think Kelechi Iheanacho should go to spain. Man city play a type of football similar to Spain. It suits his style more.
Also, i think Isaac success should go to spain and be serious. At least he was better in Spain and Spanish football seems to work for him

Nice lil thrownback by @randaandrews on Twitter.

Nigerian players then and now(NPFL alumnus)

1. Shehu Abdullahi - Kano Pillars > Bursaspor
2. Odion Ighalo - Julius Berger > Man United
3. Ahmed Musa - Kano Pillars > Al Nassar
4. Karo Etebo - Warri Wolves > Getafe
Nice one. Reminds people there is still quality in our local league.
People talk about our league as if it is some sort of graveyard.

Mainz will buy him after scoring 1 goal?
If you be mainz fan na so you go encourage your team to buy am ?

He wasnt even regular for them self
https://www.goal.com/en-gb/news/mainz-in-talks-with-liverpool-to-keep-awoniyi/16vd0bwyqpuiz1uxl8bsf7ub2k

Read the link above. He was not given playing time that was all.

I have researched him. Remember when iheanacho was on the brnch in leicester.

Another thing is that by nature he is a drogba like central striker but in one of his lian spells hr was played in a strange formation. He succeeded at muscron because he was played as a lone striker. However the coach at mainz played him asva wing firward and he seems to be clicking. Some teams still rate him highly. Football is not black and white. I will give yoy the link to the liverpool site that talks about him
