na so una think say the serie A easy cus osimhen and lookman re scoring for fun?🥱

I don see how e too easy for success for udinese n lukaku on his return from Chelsea to inter Milan
Success is not doing badly ,lookman is a better player than success and plays for a better team than success

And Of course seria A isn’t easy

It sounds more like stereotyping to me... I won't say age cheating is part of our culture,but rather it is one of the pitfalls of being a third world country. We don't have the infrastructure required to correct that. People aren't age cheating,rather they are taking advantage of the broken system . It is like America that has a culture of gun violence because the system allows them to carry guns.
But still I feel it isn't right to judge people based on the action of others in their social class....
Also, the lack of opportunity to harness quality talents early leave lots of players fighting to make it in football for a long time, whereas their counterparts are discovered and harnessed early and won't need to cheat to make something out of football.

Only komekn that does not understand the very basic factors behind football performance. Like, does anyone need the bolded explained to them? Is it not common knowledge. Here you are having to explain it
Let's move away from anonymity but without specifics and tell me your experiential competencies. How many football clubs have you worked for ❓❓

I will admit to having a knowledge bias with England specifically and Europe in General.

Then add to that competency knowledge by association, how many English football league Manager do you know? How many European coaches and recruitment heads do you know ❓❓❓I will not talk about coaches

Quality isn't always enough..the form of the team you play for also matters...Danielnino00


You don't need managerial experience, competence or working with clubs to know the above. Even a primary school pupil knows he has a better chance of doing better in an improved environment.

You know I will be the last person to tell you seria A is weak

I am one of the few people who rate other league unlike many of you who fancy just epl

When simmy was scoring for fun at the seria A i was among the few who praised him while many of you don’t rate him including you because the league is not epl ,yet you think I don’t rate seria A because I believed iheanacho will score there ?

Smh

From denying age cheating to justifying it.

That's bigoted.

Do you know how many players are released year out year in football clubs.

Eberechi Eze
Tella
Oviemuno
Semi Ajayi
Chuba Akpom

All released and had to find Thier own way through football. Not all make it .it's not easy at all in England

I never justified age cheating. I was highlighting a challenge we are dealing with. I only countered some of your lies you tried to disseminate.

Many players in Nigeria will thank heaven to play on the lowest ground any English condition will dump Chuba Akpom and co. Heck, these guys families will sell properties if their kids can get a chance to play in India.

Please, conditions differ.

Impressive stats for Iheanacho but from what I am reading, he is on £90k a week and it is hard for clubs to meet that, going by his current rating.

He needs to take a massive pay cut to get a team with a good system to give him the run of games he deserves to prove himself

Battle of 🇳🇬 Lads in Portugal's Primeira Liga Bwin

Bruno Soporuchukwu Onyemaechi starts for Boavista while Afcon 2013 Winner, Obiorah Nwankwo starts again for GD Chaves.

Bruno's 13th start of the season.

Obiorah's 3rd start of the season.

It's Boavista at home vs Chaves in Matchday 17 of the Liga Portugal.

How many Nigerian adults are 6ft tall? Not to talk of 15-year olds. There's only one thing you need to do. Think and think about your statement before you post. I cannot believe you posted this with so much confidence. Incredible cheesy grin
codemaniacs:
must you make such comment..

Athletes have to eat more than the average person. spend more time in the gym, more time doing exercises than the average so their bodies will naturally look more mature than their peers...

when I did NYSC about 10 years ago.. there was a 15 years old guy that was 6ft tall with small beard and more mature face than his classmates....

Its about genetics..

If Tella, Eze, Olise were born and bred in Nigeria.. you guys will say they are in their 30s.

The Naples Public Prosecutor’s Office has reportedly requested a six-month extension for their investigation into the transfer of Victor Osimhen from Lille to Napoli.

The Nigerian forward joined the Partenopei in September 2020 from the Ligue 1 outfit in a deal worth €72m, plus €10m in various add-ons.

Prosecutor Francesco De Falco, working alongside Assistant Prosecutor Sergio Amato, believes that Napoli may have produced false communications in their financial statements for July 2020 to June 2021, based on that Osimhen transfer.

Should new evidence emerge, sporting proceedings could be reopened against the Partenopei, similar to the situation Juventus are currently dealing with.

Seria A is not easy by any stretch of the imagination it's still a tough league nonetheless.

However, it's not as competitive as the EPL .

Why are Italians so crooked and dishonest, is it a legacy of the Cosa nostta( Mafia) that has pervades their society

Last year I was in Italy, Sardinia to be specific got to the airport late 11pm + and the taxi took me on an Israelite journey from the airport to my hotel, I paid €185 it should have not been more than €80.

And throughout my stay I kept getting scammed by Taxi drivers in the end I just rented a car.

You are using statistics to overstate things and misinform and present a deceptive narrative. A player on nearly £100k a week and his core responsibility was to score goals in the EPL not against low level opposition in the cup games.

He has been abysmally poor for the past 6 years just one good season. You don't have entitlement to play , YOU EARN THE RIGHT TO PLAY.

Whatever minutes you get you make them count and create impact, Ademola comes on second half on the 56th minute as KC comes off . In three minutes Ademola has scored and gets the MOTM AWARD.

Quality doesn't hide it rises to the occasion. Good players adapt to whatever system.

Iheanacho won the EPL player of the month. EPL. Like the English Premier League player of the month. If the coach has chose to leave such player out, that is his business and has nothing to do with his quality.

His stats are there to see with what he has done with the minutes he has been given. That stats you are throwing up there is deceptive and you know it. You have seen he did with the minutes given to him. One word. Outstanding.

Any other is really you thinking you are deceiving people but not us.

The stats I posted showed how Iheanacho made good use of his time. Not you trying to throw some amateur readings that try to equate 10 minutes to 90 minutes. Then you try to claim you are a pro, when you do not even know a player needs a healthy run of games to prove himself.

Stop trying to sell yourself as some professional because you really demonstrate the opposite. You are seeing minutes to goals/Assists ratio and you are trying to discredit it.

Like who do you think we are, some amateurs that know nothing about football?

That crap you are pushing won't sell. The stats with what Iheanacho has done with his time is clear for even an amateur. Just see what you are posting. You are posting an incomprehensive stat and trying to run with it.

Keep that amateur analysis for your fans.

Stop trying to pitch Lookman against Iheanacho. I wish and pray for the best for both.

Lookman has done well and Iheanacho has done some impressive things too.

Bench Lookman like Iheanacho and he won't perform.

Mujtahida:
The point is this: is there a culture of age cheating in England? No. So practically how that plays out is that even if you see a 30 year old looking player in England say he's 19, You will believe him because the record is captured at birth and the opportunity for alteration is almost zero.

But what is our situation? It is an endemic national culture for people to engage in falsifying their age. And in football the incentive is greater because of financial rewards that come with the game.

So the default position of doubting player's ages in Nigeria is justified. Don't blame the doubters, blame the culture.
God bless you for thi take SIr

I personally know many age cheats that made it to Europe on the bac of lie

Know one old papa at 28 yrs that claimed 17 to get into shakhtar Donestk u-17 that time

People here will think we want to bring our own down. Some of us know agents and players and are quite close to the scheme of things

So yes, I will disbelieve most Naija players age until strong evidence proves otherwise
