Gernot Rohr should look at this prospect. Much better attacking midfielder than Iwobi. On the same level as ejaria. Will become a better AM than Ebere Eze in future.

What a bold statement

Edit: His touches are heavy

chrisooblog:
Azeez is better as a CM. haven't seen much of him in the AM role but I have my doubts if he has that creative element to function in that position.

It is not about the creativity but the ability to take and release the ball in tight spaces

Wow I saw this stat

Cool cool cool

sheyishemba:
azeez is not a natural AM his best position is just CM and DM

He plays as an AM for Granada

Leicester are intent on buying Lallana

Rodgers is bad on the transfer market

Danielnino00:
National team coaches have their preference..
The same way Rohr preferred Ighalo to Osimhen isn't different from Brazil coaches preferring Jesus to Firmino..

Yea I remember during the world cup or Copa America people were pressurizing him to play Firmino

Unpopular Opinion :

I think Ramon Azeez is SE only natural AM aside Iwobi

Philosopher1979:
I have been wondering maybe chidera ejuke ia a false 9 like firmino or dybala or messu. Players like this can play anywhere in attack amd create and score at the same time. He might be underrated
Players like this blur the line between attacking midfield and stricker. This is just my opinion

I don't think Chidera Ejuke is a false 9 or AM but an inside forward, Wingers or Inside forwards like to take on and eliminate their man while AM's work in tight spaces and can only touch the ball once or twice before creating a chance (like Iwobi)

Edopesin:
If they're leaving LMC completely teams won't give up their CAF positions even if the private teams are doing better, it will even be unfair

Hmm anyway I think they'll make up for it by player sales to foreign clubs

Edopesin:
But they won't be recognized to participate in Caf competitions, unless they will still keep teams in Npfl and come up with new teams but with different names

When they perform better than the government backed teams they would have no option than to beg to represent them

Edopesin:
Nigeria Private club owners led by Ifeanyi Ubah and Kunle Soname want to form a separate league, aside the Nigeria Professional Football League due to the an unfair treatment from the league board, however the winner of the league will get a N100million, twice the winner of the Nigeria Professional Football League.

I don't know how true this is

Going private is the best thing for the Nigerian league, every thing government touches scatters

Somebody just completed a Nigerian FIFA team on Ps4 wow

Ziyech
Bruno
Werner
Sancho

EPL is going to be lit next season

jihday:
Eriksen? Have you watched any football this year?

No be only Eriksen na Soldado

Joebie:
competing with Kane will only make him better. You never know Mou may favor Victor over Kane..

You don't compete with Kane at Tottenham, you sit on the bench for him

sheyishemba:
am really skeptical bout osihmen going to Tottenham..the dude should just go to Napoli ...Tottenham are not assuring him game time coz they have Kane and moreover if the should use two striker it will definitely affect eriksen who is their top midfielder but in Napoli he is definitely guarantee of a starting shirt coz milik will soon be sold and merten might also be leaving so he will have his chances
also Liverpool might not give him chances due to the creativity that firmino provides for Liverpool and let not forget origi is still in Liverpool ....Going to Liverpool is damn risk like F**k .
Napoli is the best for him let him just go

Tottenham will be the worst decision for him, a half fit Kane played in the Champions league final ahead of an inform Moura imagine

TheGoodJoe:
I just knew Richarlison will not slack. The young man is too focused. See how trim and fit he looks.

Talking about fit, look who's fit

Richarlison is going on to be one of the best players in the world

It's only a matter of time before Barca and Madrid are after him

BascoVanVeli:
Abeg leave our Rakitic for us. Real Barca fan will always love him

Most Barca fans don't like him tho

andrewbaba44:
Only a clueless person will be comparing a Central midfielder stats to forwarders , to make it world you are comparing his stats to messi neymar and suarez

Bro you are confused abeg

You are earthquake, you keep on showing us, why cant you just hide that


Smh

I knew it would get down to insults, na me overrate your thinking faculty

andrewbaba44:
Rakitic is a midfielder nah

You are comparing him to Messi Suarez and Neymar who are forwarders ? Lol

Bro you are earthquake ,you just keep on proving it ,can’t you just pretend ?

Earthquake you can run but you can’t hide ,always having wrong arguement and weird opinions

Rakitic is a midfielder that's why I brought out his assists stats

If you don't have argument stop bringing out the earthquake stuff

andrewbaba44:
He is one of the best in his position ,I did not compare him to Xavi Iniesta and Busquets ,you don’t need to be at Xavi Iniesta or Busquets level before you can be considered a great player ,how many players can even lace Xavi and Iniesta boots this days

Rakitic is already 32 ,rakitic in his prime will start for all big teams in the world ,then why won’t I consider rakitic as one of the best in his position ?

Rakitic in his prime won't start for all the teams in the world, Rakitic has only 41 assists in his Barca career in almost 300 matches playing behind Suarez, Messi, Neymar and co

You overrate Rakitic

andrewbaba44:
But he went on to become one of the best in his position

At times you don’t need to get the best players in their position

Saudi mane was not among the top 5 wingers in the Epl when Liverpool purchased him ,but you can see the player he has become today

Rakitic never became the best in his position, he had a good 2016/17 season but he never had a career like Xavi, Iniesta or Busquets

Saudi mane was not among the top 5 wingers in the Epl when Liverpool purchased him ,but you can see the player he has become today

But what was the rational for buying him at 25 for 20 million after an average season at Sevilla?

If he was 21 or 22 I would say they saw some potential in him

Arabiandude:
Like you mean he hasn't contributed enough playing for Barca?

No the buy was puzzling because Barca were meant to buy the best young talents or raise them from the academy

But he was bought from Sevilla at 25, he was not even the best midfielder at Sevilla neither was he in the top 5 midfielders outside Barca and Madrid

Arabiandude:
He is not just good enough for Barca

He will be good enough for another top team he is just not suited for Barca

Do you think Sergi Roberto will even make the squad of other top teams?

After 6 years I still don't understand why Barca bought Rakitic

Arabiandude:
But how come Alba from LB still assist and scores, as well as defending?

Alves wasn't crossing but he was still defending, scoring and assisting, that's what is also expected of semedo

Alba is more involved in more technicalities like 1-2s and false runs with Messi

Semedo is more straightforward with less technique that is why I think he is not suited for Barca

Arabiandude:
I don't know, maybe I feels I am the only Barca fan that thinks semedo is scrap, that's why she.roberto sometimes has to be brought into that RB.

What's semedo assist for Barca? And defensively he isn't there either. He is only good at attacking and before he runs back, damamges would have already been done through his rb position and the attack he runs to, he doesn't scores or assist

He doesn't assist because Barca don't use the crossing style like other clubs, all he does is cut back to Messi

if he was in Liverpool he would have plenty of assists

andrewbaba44:
So una still dey take news from all this mumu naija site serious ?

If dessers join genk i no go like am ooo, genk ke ?

Genk are a club upgrade on Hercules, they are in the Champions league and fighting for the title

But not so much a league upgrade

andrewbaba44:
we know say we go buy am, but its just that most of us think he is not good enough for our club

We don too waste money, there is no way martinez is worth that money barca wanna pay, they will never learn

He is an average player, maybe he will become world class while playing with messi and co, who knows

Bartemou is desperate at this point, he offered them 60 million plus Vidal and Semedo which they rejected

Imagine offering Vidal

For Barca fans:

Barca are reaching an agreement with Inter for Laurato Martinez they have offered 90 million plus a player
