Thanks,Emma Olisadebe was already 300 level before he decided to pursue football as a career and started with university games.
olisadebe made the right decision playing for Poland because he wouldn’t hv been considered good enough for the super eagles then

Maybe few caps in friendly games

You are missing the point which is that you can't make it if you ain't talented. Those other variables you mentioned are secondary and they can't make you a good footballer if you don't have the talent already. Children of most footballers don't have talents but they are disciplined, taught how to work hard and be determined, but yet they fail at th end.

Most footballers from South America and Europe make it with only innate talent without discipline, hard enough work and determination, even though they don't last long on the scene.


Do you know as disciplined, hard working and determined as Justin Kluivert can be, he doesn't have what it takes to reach the height Baloteli attained
Yeah natural takent can get u to some extent. After that u need ciaching with discipline.
An example is gift orban. He is obviously a raw talent from street football to best player in belgium and European league record.
However to thrive in a top 5 league he needs tactical training duscipline humilitu and he needs to learn.
I mean to play in chelsea real madrid etc ge needs some polishing

Who is the better footballer, Abedi Ayew Pele or his two sons, Jordan and Andre? Or should we add their uncle to the mix too, Kwame Ayew, na real footballing family.

Hoping to see what next the Uche family has to offer us, already provided Kalu and IK those I consider one of the best set of siblings to play for us. Notable mentions are Emmanuel and Patrick Okala, Emma and Austin Okocha, Segun and Wole Odegbami. I wasn't impressed with Azu Oliseh, Ogbonna Kanu, Kelvin Amunike, the Sodje Brothers.

MODIFIED
I failed to mention the Babayaro Brothers, Celestine and Emma, the Kpakor Brothers, Austin Eguavoen and Monday Eguavoen, then Mikel and his less popular goalie brother, Wilson Oruma and his brothers too

abedi was too good to be compared to his sons bro

Abedi was a proper baller and the only aspect I will say our jay jay tops him was skills

Abedi was more similar to Oruma but miles better. Robust and a superb carrier of the ball with decent skills and passing ability

Boniface Victor was once a fan of Victor Osimhen during his U-17 days.

Now in 2023 both are National team mates , another reason why you shouldn't give up " cause if you give up na you FU*K UP".

This should be 7-8 years ago for anyone that would want to raise doubts about their ages.

Sir,can you name players who took after their Father starting from Nigeria national team right from immemorial.

Sir,no matter how you are closer to your footballing father if you don’t have the basic talent,no way.
Now the sons may not have been as successful as their dads but they still tried, those I can think of are: Willy and Baldwin Bazuaye, Ojokojo and Jordan Torunarigha, Dominic Iorfa and Dominic Iorfa (jr), Barnabas Inienger and Barnabas Inienger (Jnr) and then the great Teslim Thunder Balogun and Abioye Balogun (played for 3SC), Nnamdi Okosieme and his son Ndibuisi Okosieme and daughter Nkiru Okosieme, Peter Ijeh and his daughters Evelyn and Josephine. Those are the ones I know of.

I think Efan Ekoku also started professional football late after graduating from Auchi Poly.
