Dey lie say you didn't expect Sterling and Aguero make the list.

If anyone is lying, it is you because there is no place I said I did not know Sterling will make it. I think Sterling was PFA player of the year, so he would definitely make it. I said till now, I do not know if Aguero made it because of the brilliance of Hazard, Sterling, Mane and Salah.

At least, you have an idea because you saw them played. How come you didn't have that any idea despite claiming you watched Ligue 1 and Taye? grin

If Babayaro was good enough, he would had been noticed by CAF since he played in a Goliath league. grin

Chelsea was an average club as at the time Celestine Babayaro played there. Marseille was a better and bigger club than Chelsea as at the time Celestine Babayaro played for Chelsea. You can only deceive those who didn't follow Chelsea. grin


Did Celestine Babayaro light fire in EPL? grin

Taye Taiwo still performed better than Celestine Babayaro when he came to EPL. grin


Chelsea average then? Lol. It shows you lack understanding of football then.

First of all, Chelsea had some of the finest players in the game that period. Off the top of my head I can call Vialli, Gullit, Tore Andre Flo, Hasselbaink, Gianfranco Zola, Some point, George Weah, Graeme Le Saux, Desailly to mention a few.

The won the Cup Winners Cup in that era, the FA Cup and the UEFA Super Cup and the League Cup. At one point they came second in the league. Chelsea was no average Club at that time. They were big and just needed the EPL crown.

But when we look at the likes of Foden, Denayer, Sancho a d recently, Angelino, the education at the academy level played a big part in their development and then apart from Foden who is taking his growth slowly at City, they seeked first team football to showcase their lessons which showed they were good players.

I think Edozie is making the right choice playing with the City U18 first, then he can go and seek for playing time in a quality ball playing team. I hope he does not need to do that and break in early into the City set up.

Manchester City U18 pattern of play is almost the replica of the main team.

Taiwo was a good player but knowing if he was in team of the season means Google, not watching. As I said, you knew that by Google, not watching.

Chelsea as at that time was average. I followed that team since Babayaro's days.

Where did they finish on the league before Babayaro came?

For you to know I followed Chelsea, Chelsea was the team I saw a coach removed track suit and substituted himself in games. grin

Yes! They won all those in that era but Marseille was still a bigger and better club than Chelsea during that era. Fact.

They are few people that can tell you this. I watched Oruma coaching Nasri on the field in many games. Oruma was like Nasri's mentor on the field of play. If I did not watch it, I would not know. You see that Marseille, I watched them well. No mixing words. I even followed Oruma when he went to Sochaux.

To explain to you, I followed Nasri, Ben Arfa, Menez and Benzema in French youth football, especially in the toulon tournament they won in that period when they were young teens.

Lol. They were not average. But you tried. grin

The coach who removed his track suit and entered the field was Ruud Gullit. He was player manager. He had a one on one in the match and slipped due to a mud caught in between his studs. After him, Vialli became player manager.

You tried but Chelsea was not average then. Keep in mind Gullit himself was formerly the best player in the World.

I did not know Taiwo won it. Does not mean I did not watch him or he was better than Babayaro. Babayaro was pure class.

By the way, I think that coach who removed his track suit, Ruud Gullit (I call him "Rude Boy"wink was the one who signed Babayaro to Chelsea and also took Babayaro to Newcastle when he became manager.

Zola was the bomb. I think Denis Wise was also great. It was a good time for Chelsea, especially beating Real Madrid in the UEFA Super Cup. Good Times and glad a Nigerian was a big part of that team.

Ghana is not up to Lagos, in terms of what? Only a fool talks like this. Ghana is not up to Lagos. I was expecting you to state your reasons why you think Ghana is not up to Lagos. That is how wise people talk. Only foolish people make sweeping statements without evidence and without substance.

Of course there is no room for comparison, between Ghana and Nigeria. While Nigeria is a certified sh1thole, Ghana is doing great. No wonder thousands of your long-suffering mudder fuggerz arevtrooping to a Ghana everyday, like Muslims going to Mecca for pilgrimage. angry

Kidnappers have taken over your country. People can’t even travel travel on your highways because they will be kidnapped grin they are kidnapping anything that moves, for a ransom of coke gala grin Is this a serious country. Nigeria is a joke
krattoss:
bro calm down.

Ghana is not even up to Lagos State not to talk of Nigeria as a whole.

If u calculate number of people living fine in Nigeria and access steady electricity, it will surpass the whole population of Ghana × 3.

There is no room for comparison between Ghana and Nigeria.
