Go and check his games in the Belgian pro League and Ligue 1 before arriving at this false conclusion.

He is being restricted to defensive duty in the national team setup.

Your last statement is the sole reason he gets the nod over other better wingers in the national team. Yes. He has improved recently, and that's down to competition in the team, same way Onuachu improved his game because of Osimhe and co.

My point is not false. Dude doesn't offer much apart from defensive capabilities. And our coach is a defensive minded coach. So he uses him over better options oftentimes.

Because that's what he brings to the table not for his great attacking abilities. The boy has been playing for us since Oliseh time yet he is still hasn't wowed us.


He is still better than most of the Wingers available.

He can’t wow the “us” because the “us” belongs to certain set who don’t believe nothing good can come out of Samaria.

Who are the better wingers? Can you list them?

How come he had 2 assists out of the 5 games in AFCON?

Wrong bro. Jota was brought in to cover the front three. It was because of Firmino's loss of form that made it seem Jota was played as a striker.

I haven't seen any credible source linking Onuachu with Liverpool. As much as I want a Nigerian in LFC colour, I really don't see Onuachu as the type of player for Liverpool system.

I wanted to post your last paragraph before but I didn't want unnecessary arguments

But I'm glad someone shares same opinion as me.

Which kind talk be this...you expect a high flying young English boy to dump all that English fortunes for your Nigeria. Be realistic.

You can take Aina, Lukmon, Adarabioyo , Ejaria etc but you will never get Saka, Eze kind of talent. You get their low talents. Case closed.

You have a point

He is not better than Onyekuru , Samuel Kalu nor Chukwueze. Even Iwobi offers better attacking option.

I didn't want to respond because he seem bias.

Only Ejuke, not to talk of Oyenkuru that Rohr doesn't fancy, dwarfs Simon hands down.

Dammn we are loaded at the flanks sha.

Imagine what a direct creative midfielder would bring to that team? Perhaos now we should turn to Nwankali. Perhaps.

Yes o. Infact if City signs Anayo, he would walk straight into the tea and start all their games too.

I just say make i find your trouble small grin. I think Klopp doesn't like out and out strikers besides Lewy. Why, Ings, Benteke and Origi. I dont think Onuachu should sign for Klopp, my opinion.

Of course Anayo takes over from Sterling, that's just makes sense grin

Right now Onuachu has more in common with lewandowski than the other three you mentioned. I am standing by the 35 goal man on this one. If Liverpool sign Onuachu he will continue from where he stopped.

If that's the case then we need him. Good replacement for Simon Moses. Simon slows our game and cant dribble.

U just don't like Simon. Which one is can't dribble? Do you even know what dribbling is Just say you don't like him and let's move on.

Onyekuru couldn't even stay in league 1 and the rest of them apart from maybe Samu can't measure up statistically.

Simon have been doing well from Belgium days ,how did he just only improved ?

His only bad spell was his Levante days

He has been doing well in the French league since he arrived so what’s your point ?

Only chukwueze is better than Moses Simon in our wingers

I am talking about his time with Super Eagles. What good is club football if you can't replicate that form with Super Eagles, which is what we really care about. If you can't reflect your so called club form in the national team then you must pave way for a player who can give us what we want.

Onyekuru was ignored by Rohr until he was forced to invite him due to injury to Samuel Kalu and with just one start he wowed everyone and was the most threatening and dangerous player during our last meeting.

And no he is not better than anyone of these player as a WINGER...all puff and no pound. The boy was invited as an attacker not a support for defenders and he has not shone, period. Onyekuru , Kalu and Chukwu are all players that could create chances and also score, Simon , not so much. If you want a defender then invite one and stop converting players into different positions.

If you want to talk about club football then Musa should not be there.

We know Simon can dribble from here to Timbuktu , however , there is no end product. Simon is not an asset to Super Eagles. When Onyekuru was tearing Belgian league up Rohr ignored him and kept inviting Simon to play defense...abeg , make we shun this talk because I have noticed we have bad memories around here.

No wonder the “us” don’t see anything good in Moses.

He is better than all in his wing.

Those players finding it hard in the same Ligue 1 is now better than the one doing better in the same league. What an irony!

Mr man, you have never made any objective point devoid of prejudice.

I don’t take you seriously.

Besides, Chuks is better though they don’t play the same wing.
