oga destiny differs and at the right time he will make the leap. i bet you that ejaria is work in progress when compared to nwakali who couldn't make the cut at porto's 2nd team

making the leap to the epl from the championship is not an easy feat and it takes extra ordinary performance to achieve that unlike the laliga where newly promoted teams can easily take 10 players on loan from mid table and relegated teams

i bet you that based on current rating ejaria is miles better than nwakali which is the main reason rohr deemed the former good enough to make his bench.

nwakali to me remains i pretender and i can't wait to take my words back if he proves me wrong this coming season.

if leagues are to be put into consideration as a yard stick to determine a better player based on your sentiment that means nwakali is better than aribo

ChrisKels:


Oh now you know destiny differs? Would this so called destiny have differed if the player in question was Nwakali?


Lol about the second bolded, could you please show us the list or match day squad where Rohr had Ejaria on the bench? Abi na you build this one up from no where?

charlesemeka85:
rohr have spoken with ejaria which propelled the kid to apply for change of allegiance from fifa

nwakali last showed promise 4 or 5 years ago and since then he is yet to do anything tangible after leaving the shores of africa while ejaria slowly worked hard to get where he is today atleast as a first team player in a championship side.

i can only listen to your sentiments when nwakali proves me wrong by becoming a hit in laliga or atleast makes 10-15 starts in the colors of relegation hopefuls huesca.

even younger michael olise is gradually making a name for himself in the championship while your acclaimed midfield maestro nwakali is yet to make a statement in 3 different leagues he has played since leaving for europe.

you may continue waiting for nwakali to reach his full potentials while players like eze,ejaria,onomah,frank onyeka,aribo,olise etc are improving every season in their respective clubs and tipped to make the leap to the super eagles in no distant time if they continue with their progression.

TheSuperNerd:
We cannot even say this yet. Infact, we cannot think of it. Nwakali has to play and perform in La Liga first. And even when he does perform, I still won't say he is better. Why? Well, it's simply b'cos Aribo is still ahead based on National team form, experience and the fact he still does it for Rangers in the league and in Europe.

But take nothing from Nwakali. I believe he is primed to have it good for Huesca this season. I saw his second preseason game also vs Alaves (days after his first half showing against Espanyol). Played the final 30mins. Lad is gradually getting there in terms of fitness and match sharpness.


Meanwhile... Abeg everything must not be about Nwakali. You always bring him into conversations to talk him down. The lad steal your GF?? Na wa!

ChrisKels:


Bros u dun change mouth oo

From "he had him on the bench" to "he spoke with him"? Which one we wan take now nah?

komekn:


I am absolutely not sure about ANYBODY'S age born in Nigeria.

Why because we have no independent official corroboration of birth date data.

So we rely entirely on the assumed integrity of the individual in a country where integrity , honesty and truth are not on the main menu.

That's his official age, you can believe it or not it's still official.

I am more concerned with consistent continous top level outstanding performances age is academic.

charlesemeka85:


had him on his bench? maybe thats typo error but what i meant is he has been penciled down as a possible inclusion in the team and atleast make the bench for the sept friendlies which were cancelled and also future engagements if he continues with his form.

ChrisKels:


Yea, typo indeed

So could you please show us where he was pencilled down as you just claimed?

charlesemeka85:
i hold nothing against nwakali and once had high hope in him after his u17 exploits but since he left for europe and flopped in the clubs he has featured for it doesnt make sense to still rate him as i did before when other ones are springing out as the day goes

nwakali is yet to kick a ball in laliga which is still on break but the fuss and noise of how he will boss the league is becoming irritating to me. we have to wait for him to make a statement in the league when it starts before jumping to conclusion.

my assessment so far is based on his time with porto B where is wasn't even a regular in a team that plays in lowly rated Portuguese 2nd tier but i will take my words back if he proves me wrong by shunning out decent performances this coming season in the la liga

i am one fellow who say things the way i see them without mincing words and will be the first to call out any of the players who you guys tag as my favourite whenever they under-perform.

like i stated above it doesnt make sense at all living on past glory and its high time kid gets to work and until then he doesnt deserve a mention here

He is 27 not 37 .

It's so obvious the level of blatant Hypocrisy and double standard we have here.

ChrisKels:


So after all the noise, na for championship Ejaria end up, and for such an unambitious club like Reading FC, yet some guys wanna compare him with a player in the La liga?

Hmm make I no talk wetin dey my mind sha

charlesemeka85:
ejaria is yet to be invited to the super eagles so common sense suppose mk u knw say na typo error.

for him to apply for change of allegiance signifies that the nff n rohr had contact with him

ChrisKels:


No it was rather an exaggeration than a typo.

Do you even know the meaning of the acronym "typo"? You can not call a whole sentence a typo because typos are misprints of word(s). When you write "Emake" instead of "Emeka" it is a typo not when you deliberately distort facts like you just did, in a whole sentence to suit your narrative.

Emeka, people from Imo State dey sabi book kwanu, I no come understand your own case oo

Well, you are even better than the dullard that liked that post, instead of giving you simple corrections

If you had called it an oversight, it would have been pardonable

charlesemeka85:
ok oga prof its an oversight

forget grammar hustle mk money

ChrisKels:


Grammar too na hustle nah

Chai Charles Emeka my man

Subzero047:


Onazi was born in Lagos not London so he should be 51 by now

You are right, there is no way a player born in Nigeria can use his real age

Kbs468:
Eze now to feature for Crystal palace

komekn:


It's interesting to see he is Crystal Palace and Zaha will give him the right advice about playing for 9Ja.

Now that his long term future is being sorted out the next coming weeks will see a clear commitment.

That is not what I said in the bold.

Let me reiterate, because there is automatic birth date capture and no official independent corroboration of age in Nigeria.

You rely entirely on the integrity of individuals.

This is country where honesty, integrity and truth are not the best policy.

A country where at secondary school level we have exam cheating with high level WAEC officials implicated.

So I accept anybody official age whether I believe it is another matter. But in the end age is academic, we should concentrate on outstanding perfomance in the HERE and NOW.

Was he given euphoric accolades or rather aspersions.

Don't be hypocritical.

chrisooblog:
birth certificate yes are a definitive proof of age but other ways of corroborating a players true age can be employed.

Mikel Obi we know when he was involved with the pepsi academy so putting 2 and 2 together we can say he's around the age he claims even if you don't believe him.

same for the u17 players we produced since 2013 because of the mandatory mri scans they have undergone awaziem falls into this category.

this your constant talk about our lack of honesty and integrity gives the impression their are no honest people around which I think is a bit unfair. everyone in the world always finds a way to game the system so this pontification as if we're the worst in the world is over flogged. is football age cheating still a challenge in Nigeria? yes. has the situation improved? yes maybe not as much as we want it to but there is progress and we shouldn't rest on our oars until the system is sanitized to a reasonable degree

So, birth certificates are now useless??
