This Okija boy, Bright Osayi Samuel, who has long pledged his allegiance to Nigeria, but was surprisingly overlooked by our recent Dream Team handlers, despite his exploits so far with the QPRs, is wanted by Southampton, according to -

If this pulls through, then I fear for Onyekuru. Osayi balls like former 042 (Enugu) great export, Chuks John Utaka, aka Utaka-CoalCamp

Exciting times never cease. Hope it pulls through even if not now but in the summer.

Osimhen giving Mendes serious warning..... Na wa... See elbow. grin

Meanwhile, I saw the Martinelli goal. This is part of why I rate that lad. Why I mentioned him alongside Osimhen, Haaland (actually Håland), Greenwood and Werner among a few quality others as the next super no.9s this decade is gonna enjoy. cool
Personally I think that goal was down to Kante's mistake rather than any form of brilliance. He effectively just ran 70 yards unopposed and tucked the ball home, nothing we haven't seen Musa and even Ikedia doing

Agreed

The martinelli kid is not bad, but maybe he is being rated because he is brazillian

I dont rate him much thou, but i still think he is better than overrated Vinicius Akpororo Junior of madrid

He was born in Okija but moved to England with his family when he was ten years old. I want to ask can he play as a play maker and give Iwobi competition in that play maker or attacking midfielder role. How good is he and what is his best position. Somebody educate me

He is an out n out winger who can operate from both flanks. He is skillful, explosive and strong on the ball with good work rate. He is also prolific in front of goal. He is a good team player

Imagine being 18 years old, in an Arsenal, Chelsea derby, playing with 10 men, about to score a decisive goal

Dont you think that takes nerve of steel?

For an 18 years old boy playing in the Brazilian 4th division last season to score double figures for Arsenal in all competitions this season means something. He's very good. I hate his much higher than Vinicius.
He was signed from Ituano in the Brazilian 4th division, not Santos or flamengos.

Anyway i said i dont rate him much thou, but that doesnt means he isnt good, my opinion

Remember i said he is better than vinicius of madrid, that should tell you alot

He didnt make ituano team bro, he is just like someone bought from an academy from brazil

Not cos he's Brazilian but cos of the way he plays. What he does is what makes Lacazette tired after 65mins in any game. Yet the kid still finds the net and youve got to give it to him.


He sprinted 26 times yesternight alone. And did you see how he was defensively too? Blocked 4crosses to CKs. And he will still be in the right place at the right time in Attack mode.

Dude literally works for himself unassisted most times.

If na academy boy and he's doing this in the Epl, then he is to be highly rated, based on what you just said.

Nice draws for Rohr and us all.


We all keep saying Cape Verde. Me i prefer we show them who's boss instead.


We need at least 3 clean sheets, 1 away and 2 at home. That shouldn't be a P.

So adademy boi no fit come Epl abi ,is he not a 4th División player from Brazil ? So what is he doing in the Epl

If I am to go by your words ,a 4th División player should have no business in the Epl if an academy boy should not be there ,Martinelli did not play any league game for Ituano

He was chased by a player though. And ofcos it is NOT a goal of the season contender-kinda goal but to be fair, he is 18 and having the composure and technique to keep the ball at close control for that run-up to the goal in a high tension top class London derby shows the kid's got heart and the mentality for the top. Martinelli scoring the way he did in that world class atmosphere is a big deal. I don't think Ikedia ever scored such at 18. grin

Note: No be yesterday, I start to dey watch Martinelli. So it was not just about one great game. The lad is truly quality. wink
