Busquets got a better prime sir and it’s all clear sir

I would have used trophies but I will be wrong on that ,you can’t play for Barca then and expect a player at Chelsea to have more achievement than you

Busquets was better on his prime
This guy is funny, LMAO. Kante is still in his prime and he's achieved more than bousqet (with individual records). And he's still kicking it better, every year. His value at 30 is still staggering and teams (PSG) will do anything for his service, and that's something different talking about bousqet.

Dude is 32 (bousqet) and is almost washed up, and its still supposed to be his prime.

Players are different

Busquets might be 32 and gone as it doesn’t mean anything

Kanté was not rated till age 26/27 while Sergio Busquets have been rated since his graduation from la Masia at age 20 and winning the World Cup then

If I am to go by your ogogoro analysis as you said Busquets is no more good at 32 since that’s his prime ,where was Kanté at 20 ? All players are different okay

Busquets spent 10/11 at the top of his game

Which one be individual records ? He won epl player of the year playing for Chelsea and Leicester ? Ogbeni you can’t win that while playing with Lionel Messi

Kanté didn’t win the best player at the World Cup France won ,we all know he was fantastic at the World Cup but the reason is there was a Mbappe and a Griezmann upfront

Sergio Busquets was not regarded as one of the best defensive midfielders of all time to be insulted by you kids who support Chelsea

Kanté has won many individual awards at Chelsea no doubt ,nobody Dey Chelsea up front wey Dey do anything spectacular so Na Kanté go win am

Cr7 ,Messi cannot be on a team and a defensive midfielder will be taking the best player award ,you can go and ask casemeiro or Modric grin

Signing Ndidi will enable United to play both Bruno Fernandes and Paul Pogba in more attacking roles, rather than rely on a combination of Fred and Scott McTominay to do the defensive work

I dont know why is only me that is seeing this thing

Akinkunmi Amoo wins Swedish Cup. His First Title in Sweden: Zlatan in attendance

18 y/o Left footed Naija Wonderkid, Akinkunmi Amoo has just won his first Senior Professional title with Hammarby IF of Sweden.

He and Hammarby beat Godswill Ekpolor's BK Hacken 5-4 on Penalties in the Swedish Cup Final. Game ended 0-0 after 120 mins of football action. Amoo entered on 60mins and lasted for the next 60mins of the encounter.

A first Title for our gifted lad. Hopefully first of many to follow for this young growing Naija star.

Moses Simon currently in action for Nantes in the second leg of the Ligue 1 Promotion/Relegation Playoff vs Toulouse.

Recall that he and Nantes won the first leg away from home 2-1.

If they secure the aggregate win, then they keep their place in Ligue 1 for next season.

Nah Bro e no concern me, you said Billing use us catch cruise, accepted
Lookman nko, person reject Nigeria three times, lol that one no be cruise ba.
Lookman agreed to play for Nigeria then Southgate told him he is his plans and baba rescind him decision to represent England, is that not cruise too? but people are still clamoring for him here
Me I just want the best of the best available for us, that’s all
All I am saying is if Billing is willing to represent Nigeria now then why not? It’s not that NFF approached him, he is the one reaching out so why not
The same Nigeria U17 said he was not good enough for our U17, when he went in trial with Oviemuno Ejaria.

Both rejected.

A few years later the NFF suddenly realised they were alive and kicking.

So who rejected who first

Hi guys

Now that the season has finally come to an end, realistically, who do you guys think will be nominated for African Player of the Year?

My picks are:

Edouard Mendy
Mohammed Salah
Riyad Mahrez

As the clear favorites,

And:

Kelechi Iheanacho
Sadio Mane/Paul Onuachu/ Samuel Chukwueze

As outsiders

Who do y'all have?

Honestly, your most likely 3 picks are also my three picks.

- Edouard Mendy: 9 Cleansheets in 12 UCL games. 16 EPL Cleansheets. UCL Winner. He is good for the Top 3 and will make the CAF Best XI easily.

- Riyad Mahrez: EPL Champion, Carabao Cup winner, 9 goals + 6 Assists in the EPL contributing to Man City's title win, 4 goals + 2 assists in the UCL leading them to the UCL Final. Mahrez is gonna make this top 3.


- Mohammed Salah: Finishing with 22 goals in the EPL behind Golden Boot winner (Harry Kane) is something. No titles won but his goals in the EPL and UCL plus the fact he has always made the top 3 in the past three APOTY Editions gives him a huge shout. Plus no real challengers for this last spot.



For Outsiders: I would add Sevilla's and Morocco's Youssef En-Nesyri who finished with 18 la liga goals and also bagged 6 goals in the 20/21 UCL (Joint highest scoring African in this season's UCL alongside Salah).

Also, another strong outsider we must remember is Achraf Hakimi who won the Serie A with Inter Milan as a major player. He bagged 7 goals + 8 assists as Right wing back. Wicked numbers that contributed to Inter's league triumph and he could bag a 60million euros move to Paris.

Your other outsider mentions are spot on.
Onuachu, Chukwueze, Iheanacho should get mentions. But I would have Ndidi over Mane in this outsiders list for 20/21.

Akwa United vs Kwara United

Big big match 2 v 3 on the log
I've been following Kwara for a while now. Nothing should stop them from finishing in top 4 for me. They do quite well away too.


Kano Pillars having some kind of change in team marketing since Musa came back. Though Vandrezzer remains unrivaled in anything Nigerian club football for now.





Outside



Something must be done with the technical aspect of teams repping on the continent. That Enyimba match weak me.


I hope they don't think its some magic or feemtrick that made them ousted. See yhe nig difference in play?!
