It is a poor quality league with low level intensity.

Look at Oxlade-Chamberlain first game in Besiktas and he is scoring for fun. He was struggling for the past 3/4 seasons to get on the bench at Liverpool.

Goes to Besiktas and he is a baller, that says it all.
same with the Portuguese league

Lookman is far more productive than Ejuke
Meliforme:


Our best wingers are:
Chidera Ejuke, Samuel Chukwueze, then Moses Simon,
and others.

These player can feed on scrapes, and still try to make things happen. You can rely on them for a certain level of balance. I have seen some improvements in the manner Chukwueze reads his game.

I am beginning to notice Nathan Tella, especially because of his move to Bayern Leverkusen. I pray he gets good game moments, so that i may discern the kind of player he is.

Ovie na my guy, but will you start him today ahead of Nwakali?. I know he has issues with the club which is why he lacks match fitness
komekn:


Ejaria is an enigma, not very vocal but an astounding level of ability.

At the time I talked about him he was an absolutely top level Midfielder for Reading and in the championship.

However, has had issues with several managers not the least of Paul once and Steven Gerard. His team has had serious financial issues they have been relegated and are now facing penalties for not meeting tax deadlines with the HMRC (HM Revenue & Customs)

His current situation is really contradictory the club says he is injured he says he is not, hasn't played for ages. He is cleary in dispute with Reading and his contract will not end until 2024. In addition his salary is about £20k a week at least.

Reading may get docked points again and find themselves in league two club, is in free fall. And it's not a good place to be .

I am going to post a few YouTube videos of Ovie, you have clearly forgotten who he is and tell me if Nwakali can even clean his boots.



https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u_bs6xwrcIM?si=G18tNXi09-6pB3HY


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-1YqRKsNbnA?si=6ufC8dB1rONg3Zkx

Can you now tell me the last time l talked about him as a prospect for the SE, ❓ But even with woes and issues he is miles ahead of Nwakali that you guys can't stop talking about.

🚨🔵 BREAKING: Victor Osimhen could take legal action against Napoli — per his agent Roberto Calenda formal statement.

“What happened today on Napoli's official profile on the TikTok platform is not acceptable. A video mocking Victor was first made public and then, but now belatedly, deleted”.

“A serious fact that causes very serious damage to the player and adds to the treatment that the boy is suffering in the last period between media trials and fake news”.

“We reserve the right to take legal action and any useful initiative to protect Victor

Sir Meli,just tell me how Ejuke is among the best wingers.I thought rating players should be based on club performances and their influences in national team.

As it stand today Lookman is the best Nigeria winger,14 league goals and his influenced in Atlanta last season stood out.

This season Lookman and Simon Moses are already showing us what we want,left for Chuckwueze to shake things up in seria A which I know will soon happen.

Ejuke is not even in the picture unless he does something remarkably with Antwerp.

Half truths again.... Ox was in fine form in his debut season at Liverpool,albeitt scoring much, which won't surprise anyone,given the system Liverpool are known for... That injury in the UCL game against city is what ruine his career.. After that injury, he was more in and out od the treatment room than on the pitch...

He has one goal in 6 league games for Bekistas so I don't get what the "scoring for fun" is implying...


Let me quote your verbatim, " Ox spent half of his time at Liverpool in the hospital"

Which hospital please ? You are using one good season to and injury to equate his entire career at Liverpool.

I met Ox several times in the gym and Keita was considered not good enough, very inconsistent although he has had his moments, again he also was injury prone.

Oxlaide suffered a knee injury in April playing against Roma that effectively ended his 2018/19 season.
After extensive rehabilitation he returned in the 2019/20 season in indeed he played 30 games that season scoring 4 goals, his best ever goal Talley in Liverpool FC.

So your assertion is completely wrong that his career nose dived after his injury. You accused me of telling half truth.

Now what will you call yourself a LIAR 🤬 ❓

https://barcauniversal.com/barcelona-weighing-up-free-transfer-swoop-for-26-year-old-nigerian-midfielder/
saw the news earlier, he should resist moving to barca cus he won’t play much there. All they want is for him to come for free and to be sold for profit in a season or two

ATM,Bayern and juventus are interested as well with Bayern thinking of moving for him Jan while others likely wants him when his free from Leicester in the summer

Apparently Victor and Napoli had a meeting this evening and the meeting didn't end well. The law suit threat was a result of that meeting. Pretty indicative that they didn't apologize and are doubling down.

Victor has now deleted every Napoli related post on his Instagram page. Curious to see is demeanor in tomorrow's game.

Was going to wait a few more weeks before doing this, but with the way everything os turning out to be, I hope people who were shilling for Luis Garcia and ADL take back their words. I remember criticising ADL for not making significant additions to the squad and for the hire of Garcia and someone like BascoVanVeli came to Napoli's defence while also justifying Garcia's hire. The house seem to be imploding now.

NB: it also appears Victor hasn't signed any contract extension though there was a verbal agreement.

he should force a move latest in the summer. He agreed verbally to a new contract with a rise in pay of 10m euros annually and also forcing Napoli to put a buy out clause of 120m euros which I believe is the major issue putting the elongation of his contract on hold at the moment

He should just try and get close to 20 goals in all competitions in order to attract bigger teams in the summer

Clubs like Chelsea, ATM, Real Madrid, Arsenal are in dire need of a striker of his caliber. Even rumor hv been flying that he has an agreement with Chelsea and Arsenal though I don’t know how true the report is

And so many here still talking down on ndidi, see the caliber of clubs showing keen interest in him. Ndidi of far above championship level. A player that at one time was rated one of the best dm in the Premier league.
the major reason big clubs weren’t really on him during the transfer window is his lost of form and injury record in the past 2 seasons

Without that a top club would hv snatched him from leicester for cheap because he just hv a year in his existing contract

With latest report flying around I won’t be surprised if Bayern signs him in January transfer window which I believe Leicester will accept instead of allowing him to leave for free next summer

what I'm saying is that bayern will not be interested in a poor dm as many here wants us to believe. Many here don't rate the championship, myself inclusive but for the fact that this guy has performed season after season in the Premiership we shouldn't be equating him with the situation of nwakali or other division 2 players that have never proven themselves in division one.

Osimehn was at fault for his initial petulant outburst and Napoli is equally at fault for creating such video on its highest Rated player. They both need to apologize to each other and I don’t know what transpired during the meeting but osimehn is escalating situation by removing Napoli from his bio while Nigerians are encouraging such childish behavior. Clubs, teams and prospective buyers are all watching. One thing that I have learned to realize is that in life, “The grass is not always green at the other side and it’s green where you water it”

No one is excusing Osimhen's outburst, and Osimhen has apologised to the coach and his teammates (Fabrizio reported this). The recent incident however happened after his apologies.

Osimhen so far has had a scandal free career and has don't nothing to steer off top clubs. Same can't be said for Napoli as Italy is historically known not to be kind to black players and every football business person out there knows ADL isn't such a great person to deal with. Like you rightly noted, top clubs are watching but contrary to your assertion, they will be lining up to get his signature.

My friend Osimehn publicly disrespected his coach and he needs to publicly apologize. (Not privately) some of you Nigerians will destroy this boy with your attitude. As for Napoli, they also needs to apologize to osimehn if they were aware of such video (Unacceptable) for him to remove all Napoli logo and activities from his Bio shows once again that whenever things don’t go his way, he behaves childish and you have imbeciles supporting such. Mind you, prospective buyers, agents, media are watching. I have learnt to understand that sometimes when you’re annoyed just be quiet and give it few days prior to reacting and you might have a different reaction. This case is a minor issue that could had been resolved easily
