Skill as in footwork?? No way is Aguero more skillful than Lewandowski. Like I said, he has a better touch than Aguero. You're forgetting Lewandowski also played as a number 10 in his first season at bvb. I agree he way not be as fluid as aguero, but he can play as a target man and also make runs in behind the defence. He's a complete number 9.

TheGoodJoe:

When did Lewandowski play as a number 10 and who was the number nine in those games.

By the way, other strikers can make runs but who is better at making those runs. There is no way you can rate first touch and hold up play over a player who makes the team more fluid.

Lewandowski does those more than Messi but Messi is a better attacker than Lewandowski.

I like Aguero but he is more wasteful. Lewandowski is more clinical.

RIO 2016 OLYMPICS: Seyi Ojo rejects Nigeria


England youth international Seyi Ojo has turned down an offer from the Nigeria Football Federation (NFF) to play for the Nigeria U-23s at the Olympics in Rio,
Owngoalnigeria.com can reveal.



Ojo was contacted by a board member of the NFF Barrister Chris Green on the orders of the coach of Nigeria U-23s Samson Siasia but after speaking with the family of the 18-year-old he failed to convince them regarding a switch of nationality for the lad who has played for England at two-age levels.


The parents of Ojo made it known to Green that their son is however open to the idea of playing for Nigeria in the future but at this stage of his career it’s best for him to focus on his club career.


Last season he was recalled from his loan deal with English Championship side Wolverhampton Wanderers by Liverpool to provide cover for their first team after injuries left them short in key areas in their forward line.


He ended up making a total of 11 appearances for the
Reds in all competitions with one goal to his name as they ended up as runners’ up in the Europa League after losing 3-1 to Sevilla in the final.

Lucas Barrios played as a 9. Lewandowski first season at bvb was as a number 10.
Lewandowski is much more than just first touch and hold up play. Aguero is only more fluid because of his low center of gravity. Lewandowski can be plan A & B of a team.

binhozie:
He better take Moses jare prefer him to Musa and Ighalo for that Olympic team

TheGoodJoe:


I have seen that Lewandowski in one season at Dortmund played the ten role before Barrios injury.

Still, he can never ever be compared to Aguero when it comes to playing the ten role because Aguero has more ability with the ball.

I doubt you really think Lewandowski is a better all round footballer. That is not true. If you feel the ability to play the ten role shows good footballing abilities, Aguero beats Lewandowski hands down.

Unlike Lewandowski, Aguero played the ten role from his junior Argentine footballing days. As a young teen, he played the ten role for Independiente and then for Atletico Madrid. Excelling in it that demanded a huge transfer fee from Man City.

If you are a coach, between Aguero and Lewandowski, who will you prefer in the ten role.

The game so far:

Emmanuel Daniel saved a penalty. (When your goalkeeper is the best player in your team something is wrong somewhere!!!! ask man Utd!!!).

Awoniyi missed a close range header on 13 mins. He would have buried that... haba!!

Awoniyi is troubling the Danes shaa... he went close on 18 mins again but was thwarted by the Danish defence.

Obanor gets a yellow for dangerous play.(21mins)


And now... Obanor just scored an own goal!!!!

TheGoodJoe!!!!!!! how close are you to the stadium??!!!!

Denmark 1-0 Nigeria (26mins).

I wanted to do the Kpracking but The Danes are doing it for us. Massive Embarrassment especially with the kind of talents at our disposal.

What will Coach Siasia blames this on? Definitely not jet lag.
