Good Joe stop the hype. Nobody is perfect, we are all just trying our best.

TheGoodJoe:


I just feel Onazi was not lucky to work with a possessive tactician to refine his game which would have made him a more mature player. With tactical discipline and passing simplicity, we would have had a midfield maestro in our hands. Either way, Ndidi is lucky to be working with Rodgers and he should make the best use of it.

Earthquake3:
Ndidi has a powerful shot all he needs to do is to improve his aiming and technique

He can't be world class if all he does is tackle

edi287:

For me he needs to improve on his passing especially the short ones. If his passing is up to scratch - then he'll be super elite.

charlesemeka85:
bros i disagree with you. before ndidi signed for leicester from genk, he was seriously scouted by man untd who wanted to sign him and send him on loan to gain more playing time,hamburg then in the bundesliga were also very interested in having him and for leicester to cough out over 10m to sign an unproven talent who just played a season of top flight football in belgium is testament to the lads unpolished qualities. scouts no dey recommend dirty to their respective clubs because their jobs are in stake.

Even as injury ravaged Joel obi's career during his time in Italy. He was able to get noticed by the likes of Parma, torino and chievo and at a period of time linked with a move to Palace. If onazi was as good as some of u think he would have atleast attracted middle table clubs in Italy instead of moving to trspzonspor

TheGoodJoe:


The writer should be truthful to let people know that in this Tottenham game, Guardiola was robbed out of the Champions League. Not that Guardiola lacked Messi. He has set records in Germany and England without Messi.

VAR gave Tottenham two illegitimate goals. That is why Guardiola went out. Not because he did not have Messi. Either way, his journey has been laced with some of the best football plays in the history of the game. Lots of it without Messi. That is why he is a genius of the game.

Not hype. Fact.

TheGoodJoe:


Talent wise, Onazi was there but his orientation as a youngster wasn't well nurtured. If as a young player he was in an academy or junior side where his build up plays was nurtured, his off the ball movement to create passing lanes were groomed and his discipline to own the defensive midfield zone raised, he would have excelled with his talent.

He did not play in that light and did not grow with that orientation. That was his draw back.

Keep in mind the kind of football Ndidi played when he camped with Manu Garba, Amunike and Nduka Ugbade. Ugbade talked about passing the science of football to them. Those early tactical insight is now key to what clubs look for.

fabyom:
Pochettino is the real Genius! Give that guy this Mancity team and see!

tbaba1234:


Look at where he is playing.. That is what happens when a player is playing in a league lower than his ability.

zuchyblink:
a goal poacher is a goal poacher no matter were he plays. We praise Ighalo for scoring 6 in 6 matches in China let us also praise this guy. The Qatari league he plays produced 99% of players that won AFC effortlessly. To me Algeria is the most star studded team going to Egypt.

tbaba1234:


In better leagues, you face better and more organized defenses. I do not rate Ighalo's goals in China. He never scored that many goals in top leagues.

zuchyblink:
watch the guy's record he has always been a goal poacher. Most strikers in Europe cannot do what he is doing in Qatar.

tbaba1234:


Let us see him reproduce it at a higher level. Sinama Pongolle could not score much in the top league but became a goal poacher in Thailand.

jihday:
that 50-players report was just an imagination of a journalist/blogger

charlesemeka85:
Are you insinuating that he wasn't properly nurtured in lazio's youth team or Lazio lacked good and decent trainers or tacticians in their youth set up? Abi uduka, Manu and amuneke are better are better trainers than what Lazio have to offer as youth trainers?

fabyom:
Pep too benefitted from atrocious officiating on his part to winning the champions league with Barca!
For me he is not a Genius, he is good no doubt

fabyom:
Pochettino is the real Genius! Give that guy this Mancity team and see!

TheGoodJoe:


Did you watch the last game where Pochettino resorted to Martial arts to cope against Guardiola?

fabyom:
Guardiola is good but never a genius. A Genius should be able to diversify his strategies. Not having just one style of play.
Mind you he left Bayern worse than he met it.

TheGoodJoe:


Because Onazi's mobility, tackling ability and stamina was super human. However, his positional discipline failed him from rising to a top quality player.

By the way, Mikel is miles away ahead of Onazi in terms of positional discipline.

charlesemeka85:
will any club cough out 4million euros for onazi's signature currently? by the way is onazi not still young enough to atleast attract interest from top leagues in europe? i hold nothing against eddy but right from when he rose to the first team of lazio,debuted for the super eagles and currently in turkey i have not rated him for once. garagara and agidi no be say person sabi ball

charlesemeka85:
and why did he leave lazio when he became old enough to become one of the arrow heads in the team to trapzonspor in turkey? you mean no serie A team was able to afford him nor any decent club from the epl,french ligue 1,bundesliga or even one of the 3 top teams in the turkish league. pls go online and check ndid's stat when he played for genk in the europa league before leaving for leicester

TheGoodJoe:


Keep in mind from the Europa league when he was still at Genk, I think during the group stage, Ndidi made the team of the round.

Ndidi has pulled stats that ranked him among the best in Europe and to boss a game with Ngolo Kante on the field is not mean feat.

I do not think Onazi has operated on this kind of level in his career. Either way, it takes nothing away from Onazi because the dude was a machine for the Super Eagles.

fabyom:
lol you said it all. "In a friendly". Rohr pummeled Cameroon 4 nil, Algeria 3-1 even when they were both ranked higher than us.
Amuneke at under 20 could not get past Sudan.

Mickael2:


What's my business with Cameroon? You said Amuneke lost to Lesotho so should not be considered and I am telling that with a bunch of farmers he defeated the same Uganda team we couldn't score a goal against in our own backyard. What has Cameroon got to do with this?

Earthquake3:


No but he has proven himself in 7 clubs and 3 countries

He has even reached a Uefa cup final with Bordeaux don't compare the pedigree of the two

Earthquake3:


Not hating but I saw some of his goals, he wouldn't score them if he was in premier league

Mickael2:


A look at Rohr's page on wikipedia shows that he has been sacked outrightly in almost all his previous appointments.

fabyom:
I am saying he defeated them cos those guys do not need that match. Simple
