Lol. His name is not obagoal for nothing.

Martin’s shadow was a better footballer than emenike. I have no recollection of any highlight moments from emenike’s career aside the afcon 2013. Good player but largely forgettable. Won the afcon but it is not a trophy counting exercise. If that is the case, then fegor ogude > seyi olofinjana..

Goke7:
Just say you forgot the player and you personally adore martins.

Emenike apart from winning Afcon also won the golden boot at that competition. Yes his goals was that key. Can’t remember whatever martins did at Afcon. We can’t continue to use epl or European leagues to judge our players alone without their immense contributions to our profile as a soccer nation.

Joezinho:
His inability to show remorse for the missed goal was what really broke Nigerians hearts .Rather he stood with a smile on his face and chewing a gum while looking at the big screen to make sure the whole world is seeing him... 😂😂
There were Goliaths in that team...they wont play, they won’t allow others to play. To bench someone like Osazie, a young Nigerian who is passionate about the game, mentality balanced and active guy that could change the course of the game, is an evidence to this claim. How could Kanu start a crucial match like that? Lagerback was a puppet. he doesnt have the credibility to be called a coach.

zicky:
Martins moment I can't forget was he goal against ac Milan where he turned was it Maldini can't recall the defender. But for SE emenike has more memorable moments.

Joezinho:
Start Obafemi martins.
Bench Osimhen and ighalo.
Don’t call up emenike.
Arrest yakubu for missing that goal at the WC!!!

charlesemeka85:
I will start Yak, bench Osimhen and Martins , won’t call up Emenike and arrest Ighalo

Goke7:
You be wicked person o arrest Ighalo ke make Oga quintessential no go give you blow o my hand no Dey there

do4luv14:
How much many lwgbaja don coach

AlhajiDanladi:
Plus the comparison is rather baseless, Obafemi had a solid head-start to his career in Europe when he moved to Italy at 16 years of age and came through the ranks of Inter Milan. Emenike was one of those random players who was discovered while playing his football in Turkey in his mid twenties and wasn't even a Super Eagles player up until he got a late call up to international football in 2011.

Obagoal was clearly the more talented player and had an overall better career, but Emenike scored more vital and clutch goals for us WHEN IT REALLY MATTERED (Afcon win and WCQs).

All these anti-oshimen peeps should take a chill, if he can't score, others will and that's why it's a team game.

Amedino99:
why Kanu was even selected for that tournament still baffles me till date. This was his rating that day and his only appearance in that competition.

Joezinho:
What have you used to judge Osimhen so far? Is it his goals against bums like CAR, Lesotho , São Tomé and Liberia? Or was it by scoring against those carpenters that made him win the afcon player of the year? Or what impact does he have in the all the afcons he has participated in so far?

Joezinho:
Lol. Ogbuefi, wetin ighalo do you? 😂😂

Ilenekhana scores.

It’s high time super eagles handlers shun unproductive forwards like iheanacho,Awo,Sadiq,Onuachu etc and give this kid a chance

LoverOfEvil:
The kid might not even wanna play for us

charlesemeka85:
they hv to reach out to him first. You can’t assume such sitting in your house

LoverOfEvil:
Why didn't Ademola Lookman take the penalty

Goke7:
Until there's more stability in the Eagles' setup, we have to manage our expectations. We can't continue to change coaches like diapers and expect every Nigerian-born kid anywhere to play for us. We need to put our house in order, and these kids will even be the ones eager to play for us. If we can consistently qualify for the World Cup and I think we can like Cameroon does, these kids will be dying to play for us.

Joezinho:
Lol. And bannedlarger said he’s one of the best players on that day.

Goke7:
I don't think he's the one delegated for spot kicks for the club

charlesemeka85:
good point made but still there is nothing wrong with reaching out to the boy first

The team wasn’t stable when the duo of lookman and fisayo agreed to play for us

Amedino99:
you dey believe wetin that one dey talk?

LoverOfEvil:
He was standing close to the spot
It looked liked he wanted to take it
I don't think Retegui who just came to the club will be the one taking spot kicks
