On Awaziem against Marseille

Positives- He was vertile, a natural central defender but can play left back or right back
He was a good header of a ball,good in heading- in set-pieces
A solid man-marker...took out Thauvin except for that last gasp goal...my o my...96th minutes..heatbreaking
A decent tackler. Tackles,clearances and duels were done with finesse[ compare with Taribo West aka mongaru tutti]
He uses both feet,but majorly the right.
Negative- He did not bomb forward,didnt initiate any counter attack except for one, once,he desperately kick out a ball...for a doomed counter
attack by Nantes
The goal Marseille scored ,though he deflected the ball for a corner, as a left back he should have stayed put at that left
goalpost[during
corners,left and right backs stay at their respective goalpost and goal line]Awaziem did not do this. Though there two other
defenders with him there,it was his duty to remain and kick out any goal bound shot.

Above all,we have an elegant centre back to last a decade!!!
Not just an elegant one, a potentially world class defender, who if he keeps working hard and improving at this rate in three years I see him playing for one of the best teams in the world.

Here's what the legendary Gary Lineker has to say:
When asked in an interview with Spanish paper Mundo Deportivo who is better Ronaldo or Messi?, he replied: “I like Cristiano a lot, but Messi is from another world.”

A Lesson For Our Young Players

I’m actually just watching Phil Foden out on the pitch and he’s practicing and you might think why am I mentioning that?” Gary Neville said towards the end of his podcast after the Man City vs Chelsea game. “I’m mentioning that because I don’t see enough of it and actually I’m delighted to see him out there with the fitness coach, about to do some work on his own and I like it.
“I like the fact that he’s a young player who’s taking responsibility for his performance; he’s come on for a couple of minutes but he’s out there - he wants to play.”

Most official documents in the US contain both English and Spanish languages. enough said, do your research.


It's not just Mexicans, [b]North [/b]America is filled with alot of Spanish speaking people/countries. There are more Spanish speaking countries than English in North America (Not saying Spanish speakers are more in population.

Shebi I told y'all that Awaziem is going to start in Russia, either as a Center Back or elsewhere. If I can see his quality/potential, I am pretty sure that Rohr would see the same thing as well. And by the way, not to tort my own horn, I made the same prediction about Ndidi after he had his first cameo under Rohr.

Sure ke when forgiveness is saying his place is up for grabs? Ilori and Iorfa would bench him grin

Where did you see I stated what you just conjured from your fantacy?

forgiveness:


Will the world end after the WC? I don't know but we are saying catch them now before they become better players.

Manuel - Akanji is already gone and we cannot afford to miss these ones, especially Uduokhai, Ilori and Adarabioyo because they are exceptional good.


However, going to the world Cup, if Akpoguma, Uduokhai and Adarabioyo agrees to play for Nigeria then it is certainly certain that Awaziem and Kenneth Omeruo's place are up for grab.

Did you see it there? Abi you get comprehension problem?

Bia... Take ya time ooooooo.

Na you start to dey compare ooooooo. Una don see ooooooo. My padi tell me say na me start comparison for Iheanacho matter but because na my padi, I no wan prove am wrong with facts ooooo. grin

Since, this guy don bring am up, I am tempted by temptation to do the needful ooooooo. Make una no come here come dey worry me sa na me start, abi I bi blah blah ooooooo. grin


Now, back to the discussion. Do you think Tiago Ilori and Dominic Iorfa Jnr no fit play than Awaziem in the Ligue 1?

Answer dat one first before. grin

Oya, look the snapshot and compare Awaziem stats in the Ligue 1 with Tiago Ilori stats in the same ligue 1 then tell me who pass who. grin

Defensively, Offensively and passing attributes. grin

Dominic Iorfa Jnr stats is better than Aweriem own this season. Sorry. grin

I'd give you an example, there is no legal requirement for the IRS to include Spanish in filling out tax returns. However, the benefits outweigh the cost because they are able to get more people to fill out their taxes as a result. It serves a greater purpose.

I agree that it would delay the game if there are too many changes; however, I would not expect too many changes if they open it up. I mean, the team would still prefer to play their best players as much as possible. Right now, many teams don't even take advantage of the 3 changes anyway.

Yes, it would be chaos, in terms of delaying the game. But you're presuming that we'd see much more than 3 to 4 changes per game, if teams get more options. But I really don't think so, because every team would still want their best players on the field. You just don't take out Messi to replace him with Andre Gomes, just because you can grin

Ahly Star Ajayi Gets Super Eagles Call-Up For Poland, Serbia Friendlies

Al Ahly’s Junior Ajayi has been handed a debut invitation to the Super Eagles squad for the upcoming friendlies against Poland and Serbia later this month, Completesportsnigeria.com reports.

Gernot Rohr’s men face Poland on the 23rd of March in Warsaw, Poland before taking on Serbia four days later at the Hive Stadium in England.

Ajayi has been in great for Al Ahly this season, scoring eight goals and assisting nine in 23 games for the Red Devils who are closing in on a 40 thEgyptian Premier League title.

“Junior’s invitation to the Super Eagles will be a great addition, he has been doing well with his team and let’s see if he can translate that to the senior national team,” a top Nigeria Football Federation source revealed to CSN.

The former 36 Lion Shooting Stars Sports Club and CS Sfaxien winger was part of Nigeria’s Olympic team that won bronze at the Rio 2016 Olympics in Brazil.

Ajayi has won the Egyptian Premier League title, Egyptian Cup and Super Sup since joining Al Ahly. He also led the team to a silver medal in the 2016/17 CAF Champions League.

Super Eagles Keeper Uzoho Concedes Twice As Deportivo Fabril Lose

Nigerian goalkeeper Francis Uzoho conceded two second-half goals in action for Real Deportivo Fabril who lost 2-0 away to CF Talavera de al Reina in Sunday’s Segunda Division B league game, Completesportsnigeria.com reports.

Uzoho was beaten from the penalty spot by Jorge Fernandez in the 62nd minute before Christian Fernandez sealed the win two minutes from time for Talareva to deny the 19-year-old Super Eagles goalkeeper his 11th clean sheet of the season.

The loss was the 14th of the season for Real Deportivo Fabril in the third division in Spain.

Uzoho has now been beaten 11 times in 16 league games this season and he has kept 10 clean sheets.

The former Golden Eaglets keeper is currently being monitored by Nigerian goalkeeper trainer Enrico Pionetti in Spain.

Barring any injury worries Uzoho will be included in Nigeria’s squad for the pre-World Cup friendlies against Poland and Serbia later this month.

Real Deportivo Fabril are now fourth in the table with 47 points from 28 games.
