I think he has done more than enough this season, if his agent try to market him he should easily get a more decent team

The miraculous word "IF". "WHEN" it happens, we would be excited for him.

jihday:

Was Lulu not the FA chairman then?

Una really sabi deceive una self.

Lol, this is about Chukwueze's form in La Liga but since you choose to digress then Yep, He CLEARLY is better in the middle game. Playing in the PL doesn't make one better than the other.

I guess anyone not playing in the EPL is a fraud naa and that includes a lot of very good players. Lol.

Flawed Logic.

fabyom:
But Nwakali is better than a Premier league player? Okooo

Don’t know what Nwakali have done to you people here
Can’t be so poor not to get a decent team in same Segunda or even Belgium plus he’s having a really good season.

Fact is Thomas Frank used him the way he did coz that is how best the lad can be used for all his middle game limitations in a side playing with a defensive/counter/mid+deep block press against a more superior possession-based side.

He doesn't have the ballplaying IQ to best engage in ball carrying in such a game coz his decision making on the ball and Passing range isn't up there.

Besides, some ball carrying was already being done by Rico Henry for a good part of the game from the left and we saw opportunities for Brentford.

Frank did his "workrate merchant-like" pressing job/runs decently but beyond that he was nothing special. That is the truth.

BascoVanVeli:
Frank can only play what the coach tells him to play. If he was allowed to play his game he would be carrying the ball 20 yards at a time.

These idiots did this with Sven Goran Eriksson and I am not stunned. Bunch of football ignorants and air heads and we still have such in the corridors of power in our football.

Like I said already, you only just began following Bruno.

Bruno has featured more at LWB this season for Boavista before being used as a LCB in a back three for the last few games in the Primeira Liga Bwin.

Bruno is adept at LCB and LWB. Could also do a job at LB.

While Udogie is primarily a LWB.

And Udogie is just more polished than Bruno for now.

fabyom:
The difference, Udogie plays primarily as a wing back while Bruno plays as one of the 3 men in a back 3 or left back. Of course Udogie is clearly better.

funny enough they also tried same with Glenn Hoddle who also rejected the offer

'Won't lie, Ponferradina is a terrible team. They cannot perform unless Nwakali, Yuri, Ojeda are all playing at once. With Nwakali and the other 2 and with everyone fit, they can play really beautiful football but....

.... just bench any of them and most especially Nwakali and the team will struggle big time.

That was their 2nd XI getting spanked by a 4th tier side before the coach tried to salvage the game by introducing Nwakali and a few others. Nwakali is like a pearl in the midst of thorns at Ponferradina but he just has to keep doing what he does in order to move on up. He's having a fantastic season so far but it's not eureka. Long way till to go.

First of all, Onyeka didn't play DM against Man City yesterday. That is your first observation error. Lol

fabyom:
How many DMs does/do what you listed above against a team like Mancity? Until Nwakali plays with quality footballers then we can compare.

And secondly.... why did you run away from this comparison below? They all played at the Afcon didn't they?

TheSuperNerd:
Now to the next point... tell me these are half truths as well, Capper Elite Fabyom.

Among our midfielders at Afcon 2021, no one had a better Chances creation ratio than Kelechi Nwakali.

Note: Kelechi also topped for Most Big chances created.


1. K. Nwakali - 111mins played - 4 chances created. 2 big chances created. Chance created every 27.75mins.


2. Wilfred Ndidi - 360mins played - 5 chances created. Chance created every 72mins.
Bagged his most vs Sudan (2 chances created).

3. Joe Aribo - 243mins played - 2 chances created, 1 big chance created and 1 assist. Chance created every 121.5mins.


4. Alex Iwobi - 145 mins played - 1 chance created. Chance created every 145mins.


5. Frank Onyeka - 14 mins played - No chance created, no goals, no assists... and by your own "Peseiro-Onyedika" logic... why did Eguavoen only give Onyeka 14mins since he is a good player??

Do you see how silly that deduction of yours sound?





Bonus: It might interest you to know that the most effectively combined midfield chance creation for Nigeria at Afcon 2021 was seen in an Nwakali-Ndidi pairing vs Guinea Bissau with 4 chances created by the midfield that day (Nwakali- 3, Ndidi - 1).



The best that the Ndidi-Aribo pairing gave us in terms of chances creation combined in a game is 3. It came vs Egypt (Ndidi - 1, Aribo - 2).

Against Sudan, Ndidi x Aribo gave us 2 chances created combined (Aribo - 0, Ndidi - 2).

Against Covid-ravaged Tunisia, it was their WORST. The Ndidi-Aribo pair gave us just 1 chance created. (NDIDI - 1, Aribo - 0).

selling hakimi to sign dumfries , lukaku to get dzeko and more. I remembered when their sporting director said they signed dzeko for zero fee where dem dey for serie A table now oniyeye

Ademola Lookman AGAIN!

So cool from the penalty spot this bad lad.

7 goals, 1 assist in 15 league games (11 starts). Just 2 goals behind Top Scorer, Osimhen.

6 goals in his last 8 league games.

AdeFIRE LookMAN.

Lookman went from comedian to pro at penalties. I remember that his failed panenka at Fulham then.

Tenton Yenne scored today for Ararat-Armenia to help them to a 2-1 away win at FC Noah in the Armenian Fastex PL.

It was his 7th goal in 16 league games (15 starts).

Stats: 7 goals, 2 assists. He's a Winger/Forward.

He has learned the hard way. Remember his famous last minute "panenka" at Fulham?
