you're right about musa. ..and for akpom..he might he good as a supporting striker mind you he is a player from arsenal academy(hale academy) well brought up with fluid plays and passes...so ha might be a good supportive striker

Bros being a Hale End graduate doesn't make u exceptional, if u ain't got it, u ain't got it. Need I mention one time Hale End prospects and graduates out there that are as whack as our NPFL players?

Dessers have been in the conversation here. So how is that double standard? Abi na one at a time we dey take watch players?
komekn KC had a wonderful performance today. It's only one game but warrants an SE conversation at least. Consider the context of this match and how it mattered a lot to his club.

But you have to show improved form to get called up. I think Rodgers saw his improvement and knew he will come handy. The coach still gets the praise. He's been doing everything right so far this season.


First EPL game of the season and watch how the fans go delirious here.

Is that not double standard too much favoritism for certain players.

He is probably the first player Klopp ever regretted signing... That too at the expense of sending Origi out on loan
..

I remember the line "the presence of Solanke sent Origi away to bench Osimhen", hence, Solanke is better than Osimhen since the player that was sent on loan for him(Solanke) is benching osimhen grin grin

First game, first goal, first assist. Thats how stars do


Solanke has seen more games and minutes with zero goals, zero assists, zero key passes, zero penalties won, zero offside, zero attempt on goal, zero attempt on target, zero intent and instinct. How about that?

how well did dessers fare in the colors of utrecht? that your dessers no fit measure up with the best in top leagues and i am not wowed with his performance so far.

no disrespect to him and i must confess his stats are mind blowing this season but he is doing that in a mickey mouse league and club. i will only take him serious if he joins one of the big teams in dutch football or any team in one of the top leagues and sustain his form.

heracles abi na wetin na club?

If the Eredivisie is a mickey mouse league and his club. Then what on earth is the Serbian league and Partizan who are about 10 places below

JUST CURIOUS yet they are so many calling for Sadiq Umar.

Until KC can score at least 10 goals a season on near to that he's not ready for the SE in the EPL. He was poor in his last few games for the SE but that's conveniently forgotten by his fanatical supporters.

I would like to see Dessers at a higher level but hes done enough for an invitation getting selected is another issue. But if he performs you never know.

have you seen me hype sadiq here? mind you i never told you dessers is not good enough for the super eagles but personally i would only make noise about him when he joins a better team or atleast i watch him play.

onuachu was once painting the dannish league with goals as sadiq is doing now in serbia

Kelechi Iheanacho was delighted to net his maiden Premier League goal of the 2019-2020 season and produce an assist for the goal scored by Jamie Vardy in Leicester City's hard-fought 2-1 win against Everton.

The former Manchester City striker has found game time hard to come by in the English topflight, with Vardy and Ayoze Pérez ahead of him in manager Brendan Rodgers' pecking order of strikers at the Foxes.

Iheanacho confessed it was tough for him being on the bench and revealed that he's learning from one of the best strikers in the world.

The Leicester City number 14 told Sky Sports after this evening's game at the King Power Stadium : ''I have been waiting for this opportunity, I know one day it's going to come. I have been working hard in training everyday to make sure I keep up to the standard.

''I am happy today, getting a goal and assisting Jamie so today was very good and it was fantastic with the whole team.

''You need to be strong mentally as a football player, it's not easy not getting enough playing time.

''I know Jamie is a world class striker, I am behind him and learning a lot from him as well so I am happy and I know my chance will come.''

Following his strike against Everton, Iheanacho has now scored 13 goals in a Leicester City shirt since arriving the club from Manchester City in the summer of 2017.

ok but nacho is better and will do more if he plays in the eirdivisie

It's an assumption not a fact.

Football us not like that.

Consider KC cup games and his goals scored against much lower level opposition. He did not score a hat trick or dominate as a striker.

Look at Slimani almost dead at Leicester goes to Turkey still dead. Then goes to Monaco now being celebrated in French league even rated at one stage more than Osimhen.

Football is not so simplistic or mathematics.
