Who else, Lord Nostradamus?

BascoVanVeli:
José Peseiro watching Akwa United play Plateau United as we speak. Well its halftime right now

yinkeys:

Wow I kinda love this mans spirit
Much more passionate about Nigerian football than Gernot Rohr
Respect to Rohr though, in the early times of his days as coach he did well
Finally home based players can make the cut if they are good enough

BannedLarge:


Any chance you guys get, you try to disrespect Rohr when his replacement hasn’t achieved anything close to him

mostob:
oh..I thought rebounds are counted as assist

elunico:


I pray he's still eligible when we eventually make it to the WC.

Amedino99:
Should we continue or rest. The dominance is embarrassing tbh

AndSunGorilla:

Thank you sir!!! You are always setting the record straight especially with historical information. Pa Fabyom as an elder amongst boys who are age mates with your grandchildren, I have been meaning to ask first hand about how good Teslim Balogun,Isaac Akioye and Paul Hamilton were. Please sir any information provided will be highly appreciated. Thank you again Pa Fabyom.

AndSunGorilla:

But you sent me home sir to my 80 plus old father sir. Me too I be bonafide Yoruba, that's why I have to respect your old age since you and my fada are supposedly mates now sir. Please forgive me sir, small pikin no know herbs e dey call am vegetable.
Btw really great move for our boy Taiwo Awoniyi, really hoping he shines in the EPL. Also Osimehn is definitely not going to Arsenal as I think Gabriel J's transfer to Arsenal is done deal.

TheLoneCitizen:


To be honest, e pain me say no be Dessers.

jihday:
going for Ladecima

maidaboi:
Ogunniyi Abiodun remember this name he is a baller

The match Peseiro attended. Akwa United vs Plateau United.

Some good football from both sides I guess the coach being there did the trick

TheSuperNerd:
It should count but the major stats systems don't count it. E.g. Stats Perform's Opta

In Fantasy Premier league and almost all fantasy play systems (also referenced most times by likes of Transfermrkt), rebound shots that lead to goals are counted as assists. Even Goals scored via PK won by a player or FK won by a player are counted as assists in fantasy systems so to rule out mixing things up, I stuck to the traditional for the U17s.


So if Emmanuel Michael has 2 assists if I add the rebound assist then Iyede also has one. But traditionally, Michael has one and Iyede, Zero.

In all, it depends on if I wanted to mix the two systems or just stick to the traditional.

Hope you get me.

jihday:
do you think Taiwo would have a wonderful season? Would Forrest style of play suit him?

TheLoneCitizen:


He's one of the players I don't rate, because from his style of play, I don't understand why he scores so many goals.

However, the most important reason why Forest went for Awoniyi ahead of a cheaper Dessers and a proven Dennis (both on their hitlist) is that they wanted a player who would suit Steve Cooper's strategy: two-man attack.
So with no change of system, he should do well.

Also Forest had a fan favourite in Keinan Davis, who is almost a carbon copy of Taiwo Awoniyi in playing style. Awo just far better finishing and chance creation.
Another reason he should do well.

Again, Forest are PL relegation favourites and had one of the weakest teams in Championship top 7, so Awoniyi will be working with little expectations despite his record fee and should do well.


Lastly, with Cooper's attacking brand of football, I believe Awoniyi should hit 10+GA.

charlesemeka85:
aribo to forest seem likely with latest reports, do you think he will be a good addition to the team?

Historically, we going for La Duodecima. But since 98, it's La Decima since that's what most media houses are parading.

History still stands that we have 11 overall. But ofcos, whichever it is anyone wanna go with... "Decima" dey inside.

Guaranteed, Aribo is moving to the Premier League this summer, but Forest are not alone. Fulham, Palace are also there, Forest just offered the more salary.

For a player who played the most positions of any Nigerian (alongside Iwobi) over the last two years, I don't think he can flop anywhere.
