You see I'm not like you that will find any excuse to slander any player I hate, any body with two eyes that watched his match yesterday knows he played well

Can you please state the players according to you that I HATE and give your reasons for your conclusion.

And if you have to quote me please do it verbatim "my exact words" not your perception or assumptions please.

Anthony Nwakaeme has to go down as one of Nigeria's greatest in Europe.

Just took Trabzonspor to within 16 points of a first title in about 50 years, with a goal, assist, 8 chances created and 6 dribbles.

From two goals down.

Possibly one of the greatest in his club maybe on this backwaters league.

But now you are going OTT with the hype, if he is so good why has he remained in Turkey ❓

On the basis of him playing in the premier league or what?

See screenshot below.

Nuff Said can't argue with goals and goals scored in the EPL.

For those transfixed with the player definition , you will notice there is only one bonafide Striker in the list, Jamie Vardy.

Food for thought.

lacazette style!! It will help him. If he has pacy wingers, it will be a good one. But gradually with time

Lacazette is versatile and technically astute, he also use to be a Winger. And if s not your traditional type striker.

Lol

Number one you are capping with the arrangements

Number 2 You are putting osimhen there but ignoring Tammy Abraham and Lautaro Martinez from same seria A

So osimhen has better form than Haaland and mbappe so far ?

It’s well grin

When you don't agree with this OTT over hyping, you are called a HATER.

Sadiq almost dragging his team singlehandedly to La Liga. Scored one and created the other two from scratch.

Sadiq is doing very well in this far from competitive league Segundo division.

After all his failings he is s doing very well he is number 5 in the goal scoring chart's . After all the opportunity he has had in better leagues where he was essentially very poor, maybe this is his level. This is his second season in the Segundo division.

Can he step up to a more competitive league , and be outstanding ❓only time will tell.

As for his performances in AFCON they were abysmal and an embarrassment.

He has been in Europe for 12 years , why do you say it's his age ? He is 32 now .

Aubemyang is how old and has just gone to Barcelona and had already within a week or so scored a hatrick.

I have to admit the guy looks over 40 and we know the African penchant for age falsification.

Current form
Under 25 top 9 in Europe
From top to bottom
Vlahovic
Osimhen
Haland
Mbappe smiley

The screen shot below is for just Seria A and it includes players under 25. He is not within the top 9 of Seria A talk less of Europe.

Where are you getting these ideas from.

my problem with some of you is that you don't explore different factors while analysing sports. Aubameyang was born in Europe and started with the top leagues while Nwakaeme started with the low leagues. Nwakaeme is a late bloomer.

You need to wake up and stop this, pity me please mentality.

When I go to a Club head of recruitment, l don't say to him , you need to treat my player differently from everybody else.

You know things are very tough in Nigeria, he didn't get the opportunity to train with good coaches, lived in abject poverty and had stunted growth. So please pardon his failings and sign him please.

That's essentially what you are saying.

All the club is interested in is one question, can you perform with quality ,that's all .

So stop this nonsensical narrative, you personal circumstances are not relevant but your performance is.

Statistics are at best indicative and can be manipulative as well.

Unless there is a empirical theory that says the more minutes you play the more goals you will score.

Goal per minute ratios are just academic dribbling and labyrinthine noise making. It serves no purpose than to muddy the waters.

what are we talking about if he is not performing? The guy is performing and he is making headlines week in week out in Turkey. Your narratives are always bias and fallacious. If you are good you are good. The present Nwakaeme is good and deserves a call up. From your points players that did not play in Europe top leagues were not good enough but they outperformed our top players in Europe. Rainford Kalaba outscored Okocha in International football,Hossam Hassan,Ahmed Hassan,Weal Gomaa,Gedo, Aboutrika,Hosni all did better than most of our top players that played in Europe. If you are good you are good. Rating players according to the league they play is bias and fallacious

Wael gomaa Issa beast

Ahmed Hassan played in Europe mostly than the Egyptian league ,I think he wasn’t even born in Egypt

Rainford Kalaba Na bang average player ,out scoring okocha or not ,besides it’s 1 goal difference and he has more caps than jay jay so I won’t call that out scoring

Rainford Kalaba was scoring in cosafa castle cup while JayJay was scoring in Afcon know the difference bro. Before CR7 na one Iranian be the highest goal scorer for NT, does it mean he’s better than Brazilian Ronaldo?
