Please what is happening to Ademola lookman and Ovie Ejaria switch to the super eagles of Nigeria cos we this players to add depth to our squad . Any update on Michael Olise switch to Nigeria.

We don't need the first two because they aren't better than what we have. As for Olise, we are in desperate need of an AM but is he ready for us.

He is better than average player but he definitely need to score more. He missed many scoring chances that could have lifted his value. The boy can dribble and create but he needs to start scoring more.

If he had left Leicester before 20/21, he won't be winning the Prestigious FA Cup. I'm all for him moving to one of the Elite sides but let the right time come. If it's this summer. Fine. If not, we wait. He is still only 24 going on 25 later this year.

Ehen... How far? Ndidi just won a major trophy while still at Leicester and beating one of the "Bigger Clubs" in the process. What's your take on him being World class now that he crowned his world class consistency at DM with a major title? grin

He even has more major trophies than World Class Harry Kane. Have your opinion changed now? grin

People underestimate the balance,stability and of rescent, the creativity Ndidi brings to that Leicester side..
Leicester did not miss kante departure solely because they were able to find a capable and overly imposing replacement in Ndidi..
With having the kind of player ndidi is,[4 players in 1] all Leicester has to do is to add a creative player(Barnes/madisson) and they'll still maintain top 6 every year..
They tried to experiment with hamza to provide some competition for Ndidi, but it failed woefully..
They tried Mendy, he did ok, but he lacked the sort of consistency ndidi brings on a gamely basis..
Pls someone should post Ndidi stats this season

I think people expect too much from Ndidi, while forgetting he was a natural defender who was converted to DM. He cant improve more than what you see now because he is at his max. The best he can do for you is to block and tackle and the occasional brilliance with assist and what have you. When I watch Ndidi I see a very improved Seyi Olofinjana, just combative and that's that. Dont expect Ndidi to replicate what Olise , Ojigwe etc. accomplished with SE. He is not a natural DM thats why he will not get many offers to move.

There was a time I thought Rohr was going to start Awaziem who is a natural DM converted to defender by these European coaches who never take their time to study African players and play them where they can excel best. Take Etebor for instance, the boy started off as a LW , SS but has been since misused and played in positions that underutilized his potentials. Ever since , Etebor has been wandering Europe hoping to establish himself in a system that doesn't respect his natural abilities.

I was hoping that either Zuby or Mikel Agu could get a look in but I guess as long as Rohr is still our coach we will continue to play Ajayi as a CB , Iwobi as an AM. I can't wait for his contract to expire.

Ndidi is a nice player as for me he needs to just market itself and work on his pr . Which is be more marketable both on social media and outside the pitch. Most of our players like this common aspect. I just checked is twitter handle of Wilfred Ndidi his last post was when Leicester won fa cup . He needs to more active on this platform as for me he his a nice player

We do not know what occurs in the locker rooms, training pitch, etc. Does Ndidi have the leadership qualities to fulfill the position? How does Ndidi interact around his peers behind the scenes? Do Ndidi's peers consider him to be a leader?

About this.

Look, Osimhen has done well this season but you must understand that he picked up more in the second half of the season. Battling with Covid 19, Shoulder Injury and Head trauma for the most parts reduced his impact especially in the first half of the season so I don't expect him to make it into EA Sports TOTS.

We should rather be making huge cases for Simy Nwankwo and Achraf Hakimi.

So FIFA mean to tell us that Mertens performed better than Osihmen this season?

Isn't an English man.

14/20 of the clubs presently in the EPL have an English man as Captain.

That's a vague question but I will try and be concise. Ndidi only/mostly excel with tackles and blocks. His passing game needs more improvements to reach world class. He is simply above average and I am being nice.

I am sorry, I don't rate Ndidi very high but he can still prove me wrong.

Well, the international media and Renowned stats experts don't really care now about those books of yours, as you know.

They care about facts. Hard facts that show Ndidi has been the most Dominant DM in the EPL since he arrived in January 2017 of the 2016/2017 season. Those are the "books" that matter. wink

Like I already said. I know your stance on Ndidi will never change so it's no surprise hearing the opinion you have of the lad.

Exactly what we used to hear of Mikel then Onazi and now Ndidi. All these guys excelled on their roles and made their teams win matches.

A DM not a CM, do you expect him to be pinging fabregas-esque passes? At least everybody agree that casemiro and Gueye are top tier talent, can they throw this type of pass you dream of? Make we dey realistic abeg

Yet Ndidi has stepped up even in this department (@bolded) recently and have been caught by all who watch him in the EPL sending some really creative passes forward. Like the one he sent to Barnes for 3-1 vs Liverpool and the one he arrowed to Iheanacho for 1-1 vs Burnley.

Ndidi as a DM is on 4 assists and some are still limit-talking him. It's becoming stale.
