Englandboy:
ekong was a prime nd good defender back then even at udinese I just don't understand him lately ,he can't control ball on air

Blueelf:
Chukwueze the most overrated naija player in nairaland

Some will argue he is the best thing since Arjen Robben

But isn't it curious that Moses Simon - a demonized player has way better stats and more impact to his team (Nantes) than Chukwueze?

Yet, some will praise chuks and demonize Moses Simon?

I am not understanding

Blueelf:


If we had alternatives, Ekong is not even good enough fr SE bench

Sometimes I wonder what Ekong brings to the tram specially?

drDoom3:


Ekong should be playing the role Omeruo currently plays while Omeruo should be kicked out entirely. We have too many incompetent players getting call ups, and most of them are in defense because it is easy to hide there as a squad player. Collins, Omeruo and Shehu really have no business with the team. At LB use Sanusi and Bassey, CB Awaziem, Akpoguma, Balogun and Ekong as backup, RB Aina and Ebuehi. Max 8 defenders total.

Ekong was never a good defender and playing for SE really help his career.

Thankfully Ralf is coming

TheGoodJoe:


I liked Ekong at the Olympics. He was ideal to me and reliable.

Kog45:
Sir,pls go and watch Olympic video again...Ekong lacked basic thing as a defender,his ball playing is abysmal and his sense of ball control as a defender is zero even in Olympics.

Super Eagles really helped Ekong Troost.

From whoscored, Fred was the second best player and Roy Keane does not want him on the team. Shocking. That guy works his socks off for that team.

Look at this clip. You will know Ekong has technique.

Ejuke plays street football. He needs massive improvement. Always dribbling without purpose!

Roy keane get sense ?

safarigirl:
Since news came out of Iheanacho and co sneaking girls into camp, I've found myself thoroughly disgusted by the lot

It reeks of indiscipline and disrespect, to bring women to a camp, when others are adhering to the rules. Do they think themselves the only ones that konji affects? What is 5-14 days in camp that they cannot tie their trousers and stick to the business that brought them there?

Even the way dem dey take style relegate Kelechi for Leicester, does not annoy me the way it used to. The only thing I think of, is whether he displays that level of indiscipline over there too, and that's why the coach no dey rate am.


I'm just thoroughly disgusted.

wayodude:


Don't get me started on edited montages of YouTube clips. They don't prove anything really. Would you sign a player based on that?

isan:
Keane have been there he knows what he is talking about , whoscored is also Someone's opinion

TheGoodJoe:

Ekong is built for the passing game. Not suited for Ranieri's direct approach.

TheGoodJoe:


I disagree with that idea. Is there any pass in that clip that is not real? A clip of a player is the best source to know how good a player can be when he is at his best.

wayodude:


Of course you are in the know that consistency is what differentiates the good from the dross and the great from the good.

Anyone can compile a montage of any given player to make them look better than they actually are.

For example anyone who has watched Ekong for more than a minute will be more than aware that he neither has the vision, ability or belief to consistently hit the cross field diagonal passes shown in those clips.

Danielnino00:


You vomit too much bile....

Who is stopping you from hyping Simon?
Why do you always have a problem with people hiring their own opinion?

lakesidepapa:


Ekong is not a good ball playing defender.

TheGoodJoe:


I ask again, is it not Ekong given those passes in that clip? If he doesn't have the ability, a clip can not make him have it.

For instance, if players are not in advanced positions, he can't make the passes.

TheGoodJoe:


Ekong did not look like that to me at the Olympics.
