Before if an opposition player is standing in front of a player, he'd either dribble the player or attempt to do so. Now they just pass the ball. It kills my vibe. It's so sterile the kind of football being played these days.
it's not an interesting development at all.

If we can mention Harland etc any naija player can be mentioned here o. Nwakali has started the season very strongly. He only needs to maintain it. Statistically, he has it, but we want consistent top performance for once. Truth is no one can argue for any other midfielder that is available and a regular, besides those already in contention for spots in SE.

There is nothing like eye test.
These days are not like the days of
Ronaldinho,Okocha,Denilson,Robinho,
Ronaldo9,the young C.Ronaldo7,etc.
I think you are very wrong.

You are being very assumptive in your view.

Players who have the outstanding skill, flair, technique and dribbling skills of the likes you have mentioned abound in the game.

However, football has moved on, there is so much at stake. It's become a lot more disciplined, structured, strategic and physically taxing.

These players were known apart from Okocha for partying hard women, drinking, clubbing and even smoking etc. You cannot try that now you will not last two seasons and your finished.

They played to the gallery in those days sometimes selfish and tactically naive and very blasé and little discipline.

Players like Mahrez , Raheem, Gabriel but you try all that show boating and unnecessary skill, you will chop bench for two weeks. Pep will not tolerate nonsense.

It is the same for most clubs now team discipline and strategy are very strict.

Even the Brazilian no longer do all that show boating s the used to . You could say football had lost its soul and become too strict and structured and not so much fun.

I have a nostalgia for that type of football but it's gone now and machines like HAALAND are dominating.

He shouldn’t have left Barca
there was no way he would have won the ballon d'or as long as he was in the same team with messi. Not like he has won it now tho. He had completed club football in Barcelona by winning the sextuple. He wanted the ballon d'or. Psg at the time fit the frame. A big club in France, possibility of becoming a main player in the team. He thought the influence of psg would have given him the ballon d'or but fate had other plans. He is just unfortunate to play in the same period as messi and Ronaldo because his numbers are actually insane. They are worth atleast 2/3 ballon d'ors. I believe the only reason modric even had a chance to win the award was because Ronaldo was no longer a Madrid player by the time the award was done.

Denmark is among the big boys in Europe bros ,they didn’t catch up anything ,it’s you guys that’s underrating them ,they have been there since the 2018 World Cup .

Philosopher1979:
iwobi and nwakali will be like Okocha and Kanu to use a Nigerian reference.
The two of them can combine to break any defence.
Besides if nwakali is not liked
fisayo dele bashiru
Ovie Ejaria
Alhassan Yusuf
and others
There are even players in our local league.
The problem is that these players are not in the top 10 leagues of Europe and so we dont
want to try them our but then we dont have many players in the top 10 leagues of Europe that
are midfielders.
Most of our midfielders have average careers in Europe and so in that
area we have to lower the criteria out of neccesity
By including Nwakali continuously on this forum, the bar has dropped to the floor. A player who has done nothing in 7 years.

If he can be considered then every Nigerian player in any second tier and or back water league should also be considered. This is not irrational.

Aribo came from league One to the SE has progressed consistently and is in the EPL. Nwakali has just gone been very consistent in doing the opposite REGRESSION even with his SE call up he has gone nowhere.

Therefore it is justified to consider every Nigerian origin player playing in any low level league and or club in Europe. That includes English league one .

But we dont, instead we have a fixation with national youth players , youth football is just indicative potential it's nothing to anchor ⚓ selection upon.

If your team is well below mid table in the Segundo that's not a position of competence but failing.

You cannot then say you are doing outstanding in a low level league. And use that unit of low performance and competitiveness to determine quality thats mediocrity.

It's like saying Ndidi and KC are doing exceptionally well when, they are at the bottom of the EPL table. After 7 games it's somewhat a bit too early to make conclusions but they've not win a single game yet and have lost 6, they look like candidates for relegation.

In assessing players quality you need to look at the quality of club and league.

Ponferradina Nwakali club, is in Financial peril they cannot afford to buy players it's all loans, free players it's not a good benchmark for quality.

you have already said my mind. At least for now they ain't going no where with Tchoumeni and Camavinga in Midfield same with Spain with Gavi and Pedri. Denmark were average at the last mundial,Serbia were below average at the last mundial, check the records.
It was during pre-Euro,Euro and post Euro that Serbia and Denmark started making significant improvement.
Lastly,Naija will go no where with Okoye and Uzoho between the sticks
