where he plays doesn’t matter, since he is creative and functions as a number 10 properly he should be reinstated into the super eagles team because we lack creativity 😎😊😁

He can’t be as worst as Iwobi 😏
Are you implying Iwobo is not good afer 7 goals and three assists and counting 😮😮this season.

Imagine how clownish Yobo was with his entitlement instead of working hard.
That's a dark 🌑 opinion far from truth and reality.

After a more recent look at our midfield profiles in the light of recent showings so far, i will pick Frank Onyeka as the first name on the list to start games.
Hard working resilient and great work rate but beyond that nothing else.

Technical ability, passing range and offensive ability very limited.

New quality upgrades are required to get to the next level.

Dennis dey forest but not hunting😁 like Aina and Awoniyi
Chai, baba, I was hoping Awoniyi grab like 1 or 2 goals from the 7-0 goal fest... Most importantly, he was looking very sharp.

Onuachu too, even tho they are going down, he should grab like 8-10.

Dennis Bonaventure.. I don forget this guy. Is it injury or disciplinary issue cuz I know he got some attitude... But dude is very good for Watford. I rate him highly.

If not for some modern DMS that redefined the dm role, the primary responsibility of a DM is not to score or play passes like Pirlo, rather their job is to break plays and stop their team over reliance on their back line.

This guy Carney should have been invited to the SE donkeys ago when he was somewhat under the radar.

Watched him for over 4 years progressing and he is real quality that will add a lot to the SE.

What did B. Dortmund see 👀that the NFF could not 🙈 see.

Football ⚽ evolves and the best players evolve with it or get left behind.

DM role that Rodrigo plays is like a playmaker.

He was talking about U17 World Cup qualifier that both Nigeria and Ghana missed out,
Nigeria and Ghana are both U17 powerhouse and because of CAF qualifying formats which makes no sense ,both won't be going to World Cup.

I think CAF don't really care about Africa's football development,
If FIFA had granted Africa 10 slots, there should have at least extended the qualifying number of teams to 24 to accommodate more teams from west Africa that have produced the best teams from Africa,but instead they sticked to 12 teams.

Better if CAF have listened to reason and increased it to 16 teams,but their regional zoning is still flawed.

Until goalkeepers turn to attackers you evolution advocates will not rest.

We are already seeing a big evolution with the way Khusanov, a central defender of Man City pushes high up the field to press midfielders from building play.

Quite a few goalkeepers are bordering on becoming playmakers from the back 🔙.

And are required to have good technical ability on the ball with pin point accurate long passes to forward players.

Kick 🦵🏿 and hope is no longer acceptable

GASPERINI would have bench lookman anyway, Atalanta doesn't have squad depth to compete for 3 trophies, they need to focus on serie A

Nacho can not be say to be the most hype. At one time the hype was on merit as the star boy of the SE. Yes he was rated above many players when he was at city. Once he dropped in performance, his rating dropped also.
