Marcus Ayomide Abraham scored again today for Feirense in the Portuguese Segunda Liga. His goal helped his side secure a 1-0 win away at Chaves.

His team is now up to Second spot on the table.

His stats read 7 goals in 10 games (5 starts).

His 5th goal in his last 6 games for Feirense.

In form!

Olisa Ndah of Akwa United is one to seriously watch for. The boy has everything. He is naturally a central defender but his passing ability sometimes finds him at the dmf position.

He has everything. Size, pace, strength, physicality, a nice first touch and a sick range of passing.

He has also played for the U23s

I asked a question sir

Can you answer it ?
I need to know if a striker with poor stats from the farmers league will start in the epl for the almighty Fulham that’s better than Porto grin

Using the argument of the REASONABLE man and this is not something that is beyond you.

Particularly if you so desire to go beyond the superficial and appraise matters objectively with comparison

Below two screen shots of the player line up of a recent match by both teams in their respective leagues.

Let's look at the Porto fc main forward players are Marega, Evanilson, Teremi and Martinez. What's thier pedigree Marega climbed his way from Tunisia, through the lower leagues of France, Teremi in 2018 was playing in Iran, meanwhile Martinez could not go beyond U23 in West Ham and left West Ham in 2019 on a free transfer.

Now let's look at Fulham forward players Ademola, Mitrovic, Loftus cheek, Decordova-reid.

In my opinion the only player with substance in the Porto live up is Marega. The rest will not smell the EPL.

Mitrovic isn't in form injuries have not helped but his pedigree is not in doubt. No introduction needed for Ademola and or Loftus-Cheek, finally Decordova-reid has scored 5 goals in the EPL.

We could look at the midfield none of the midfielder can touch Angisa the defence is not up for debate.

So how exactly is Porto so much better than Fulham FC? ❓ Because they are in the Portuguese league.

Don't just join the rabble and make assumptive deductions borne from ignorance. Explain highlights and expand, let's compare objectively.

I may even be convinced to agree with you.

Stephen Odey on the scoresheet in France's Ligue 2.

It was the match winner. His side, Amiens won 1-0.

Odey now sits on 3 goals from 15 games (9 starts) in Ligue 2.

All three of Odey's goals have been match winners.

Chukwueze should move from Villarreal, even if it is a loan move to salvage his situation before the transfer window is up, cuz It seems Emery no rate am atall.

I don't know why Nigerian players prefer sitting on the bench while their careers suffer.

Chidozie Awaziem played all 90mins at the heart of the defence of Boavista as they secured a 2-1 away win against Portimonense in the Portuguese LIGA NOS.
He made Five Clearances. 1 key pass. Won 3/7 ground duels. And also bagged a yellow for his efforts.

First is the Chest Control.

Next is the touch to bring it down.

Followed by the Footwork, Skill and turn to escape his markers thus resisting the press.

Next up was his Vision... Spotting the run of Jose Corpas, his teammate.

And Viola! He unleashed a pass of absolute brilliance. A pass the likes of Mikel Obi, Okocha and Iwobi would be proud of.


What's there not to like about this act? What's there not to be astounded at? Your exclamations are just apt!

Sadiq Umar is yet another #9 that Nigeria is gonna enjoy with time. The talent pool expansion continues...



P.S: My dear Top man, TheGoodJoe.... The league of Extraordinary Hitmen is still alive.

The control, the confidence, and the final delivery is worth more than a goal. Only this moment can trigger interest from a top Laliga side. Umar is top talent and I place him second to osihmen and if osihmen is not careful, a move to top Laliga side will see Umar collecting that no 9 from him in the SE.

Sadiq Umar is kanu Nwankwo plus goals. He combines the creativity of Kanu with the goals of Yekini.
That is why i like his style of play. He can play target man, he is mobile, skillfull, strong etc.
He is multifacated. His style of play fits Spanish football because la liga likes players that are skillful and technical

Ok I get it, Fair enough! I was concerned because this season, he has been used as either subs or when he starts he wouldn't finish the match.

He isnt consistent but this kind of appearances doesn't help because I believe he needs consistent appearances for his development at this point in his career. If he isnt getting that, he should look for a loan move. Thats not a bad idea.
