I don't understand u...even my grandmother will not say that; solanke will lead the attack better than iheanacho. a player attested to be one of the best finisher in the EPL
bro please go through yr write up again and edit it

komekn:
When I first saw Etebo playing for my home town team, Warri Wolves, I discussed him with a few guys here.

However, never ever approached him the guys around him thier eye too cut and they looked way too hungry, so I coomot hand oh.

I also know another premiership team had eyes on him for sure. That was in January. So I am happy for him he is a very good talent with room to improve.

maidaboi:
isaac succes will bench seyi ojo, musa will bench odubanjo, simon will bench Ademola,kelechi is better than solanke, victor is a better baller than tammy Abraham,Etebor ahead of Ejara any day any time, iwobi ahead of onomah. Note players invited are the one we are talking about. Bring what you have in your arsenal lets debate

ChrisKels:
Typical you sir, always sentimental with anything foreign. Like someone rightly said sometime, u like a dude who values d gal he is having a crush on more than the beauty he is dating already.

Av rly missed u here Sha, how is d family and life in general?

ChrisKels:
Lol that was a bit harsh but that's by the way, sir forgiveness has this proclivity for downgrading home grown players just to make their foreign counterparts look superior. Most times I don't bother quoting him but when I do, I don't go into details (dissecting) because he already knows the truth but decides to be economical with it for reasons best known to him.

How is Ejaria better than Etebo? On what basis would a battering ram like Solanke make a better striker than KC?

It might have appeared gibberish and incoherent to you sir but please can sir Forgiveness back up his claims with fact? Next time u wanna quote me, be more refined with your choice of words. U can always cast aspersions but I won't take them when they are that crude.

forgiveness:
When 'Isaac' makes Liverpool's bench then let us debate.

Which Musa? The one in slovakia abi na where? Abeg, make we talk better thing.;DSimon can't just bench Ademoola because he(Lookman) offers more than him.

I saw Simon, Kalu and Rabiu yesterday. I give my verdict on them later.

Kelechi is never better than Solanke. Kelechi might not made Chelsea's bench.

Osimhen na baby to Abraham who just scored this evening.

Etebor is ahead of Ovie for sure but em go still gi-em run for him money.

Iwobi is England based.

goldfish80:
His dad is Camerounian while his mom is Congolese. Forgive me to think he's African.

komekn:
Goldfish80,

True word.

I met Pogba's older twin brothers infact knew one of them when he played at Crew with Chuks Aneke. These guys are undiluted Africans.

I remember the Boateng brothers one played for Germany and the other for Ghana.

Even our Sone Aluko his sister plays for Nigeria.
Fashanu played for England but lives in Nigeria and is fully engrossed in Nigerian life. Anichebe get house for Lagos in yawo is Nigerian.

So what makes you a Nigerian

Kog45:
Look my man am not saying he should drop any foreign based.My point is this Rohr should give home based a chance may be he can find one or two player.

I don't have d opportunity of watching NPFL of recent coz am not in d country but i know that talents are abound in d league

I remember it was on this thread u guys are mentioning player like obinna Nwobodo or are u saying NPFL is a dead league that cannot produce a player for Eagles.

goldfish80:
The Spanish league was not that tough either. The toughest league in Europe at the time was Seria A and Ronaldo scored just 49 times in 5years at Inter Milan.

Mickael2:
the worst part is that he isn't even paying due homage to Bernardo Silva who has been by far their best player. Because Mbappe makes a few runs, scores a couple of goals every now and then he now thinks that he is the best they have there? Like I said, I have noted and I will call him out

Rohr Hands Mikel Obi Number 10 Role To Iwobi Ahead Friendly Games With Senegal & Burkina Faso

https://owngoalnigeria.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/01/image-2-1024x570.jpg

John Obi Mikel absence from Nigeria’s upcoming friendly games against Senegal and Burkina Faso in London has paved way for Alex Iwobi to take his spot in the team.


Coach of the Super Eagles of Nigeria Gernot Rohr usually deploys Iwobi as a left winger, but will play him just behind the main striker in the upcoming friendly games in London.


Rohr will most likely rotate his players for the second game against Burkina Faso, but he has already lined up the players he intends to use in the March 23rd friendly game against Senegal.


Iwobi will reportedly play as part of a midfield three alongside the duo of Eddy Onazi and Leicester City highly rated defensive midfielder Wilfred Ndidi.


Oghenekaro Etebo who has been widely tipped to play behind the striker will now play from the left, while Victor Moses will play from the right according to leaks gathered by Owngoalnigeria.com.

Exclusive – Arsenal To Loan Out Nwakali Again As Wenger Rates Dutch Teen Wonder Higher Than The Nigerian

https://owngoalnigeria.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/02/image-37.jpg

Arsenal Nigerian teen midfielder Kelechi Nwakali will once again head out on another loan deal away after the expiration of his present deal with Dutch second division side MVV Maastricht, Owngoalnigeria.com understands.


Nwakali has won several man of the match award for his performances for his present team who are chasing promotion, but he still hasn’t done enough to convince the club hierarchy about his readiness to make the step up to the main team.


” If there’s one youngster who has been pencilled down for more first team action next season Donyell Malen has to be the one not Nwakali. As a matter of fact about 8 players are currently ahead of the Nigerian”, Arsenal youth team expert Simon John told Owngoalnigeria.com.


” Nwakali will go out on loan, am cocksure about that but Malen will be given a chance to push for a spot in the first team, before probably heading out on loan towards the end of next season.


” Malen has trained regularly with the first team and from those who have watched their session, he has linked up well with the senior players at the club.


” He has some areas in his game he needs to work on but overall he has improved tremendously, especially in front of goal. He is a sure to be included in the first team pre season activities”.

Revealed – Why Mikel Was Converted To A Central Defender At Chinese Side Tianjin Teda

https://owngoalnigeria.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/03/image-10.jpg

The reason behind the conversion of captain of the senior Nigeria national team John Obi Mikel from a midfielder to a central defender has been revealed.


Mikel shone in his new role as the heart of the defence of his Chinese team Tianjin Teda helping them pick their first point of the season, and also their first clean sheet in the two weeks old Chinese League.


His conversion from a midfielder to a central defender by Spanish coach Jaime Pacheco was done to help the team snuff out aerial threat from opposition, and also aid their style of play of building from the rear.


The Super Eagles captain didn’t disappoint in the role, as he won most of his aerial duels and also sprayed nice passes from the back to help his team set up attack.


His performance against Jiangsu Suning was roundly praised by the media, especially the ease at which he intercepted passes with near faultless reading of play.


It is also worthy to note that, it is not the first time he has played as a central defender because last season under interim Chelsea manager Guus Hiddink he played the second half of their Premier game against Swansea City as a central defender replacing Matt Miazga who had a nightmarish time against Bafetembi Gomis.
