Another deluded epl fan boy

I love how Luís diaz is faring at the epl

Hanibal:
As at December 2021, Luiz Diaz was part of the Porto team, and according to Komekn back then he( Diaz) isn't good enough to make the Fulham team

BascoVanVeli:



Tammy had 6 goals and 2 assists for Chelsea in the league, Iheanacho has 4 goals and 5 assists.

Blueelf:


At least we didn't buy Duaz with over 80m Euros unlike a certain Grealish

# Fraudiola

Long time my bro

andrewbaba44:

As for grealish guardiola no try

Na City board buy am though ,pep didn’t really want him

Bro you just can't dismiss how a better environment will impact on how good a player will turn out.

Do you know how many incredibly gifted kids that play on the streets who were never discovered just because of the poor environment we live in?

Messi that we all praise was it not a better Spanish system that brought him to limelight. Someone that had a health condition if not for Barcelona that paid for his medical treatment would we even know such a player exists?

Let's even talk other sports Divine Oduduro never ran sub 10 or 20 seconds when he was in Nigeria immediately he went to America for stu

I have no problem with Abraham but I'm just being factual that being born in a country that is developed has given him access to opportunities that have seriously boosted his career.

You guys are really funny on this arguement. How can you think wearing booths and having a father to drop you off at your football academy is the criteria to succeed in football.

Look at it this way. It's like academics where a rich parents pays for the best school for a child and a poor parent manages to send the child to a public school or a village school. What's gonna be the outcome of this. The answer is very easy as each person here can simply conduct that analysis on his or herself. That you are attending the most expensive secondary school in Nigeria is an investment in a child's future simply because of the exposure it brings along. That you have attended a public school or village school is based on the individuals ability to display extraordinary academic performance to boost his chances of moving forward to the university and getting a good job.

If you are the rich normal kid, you will go to a university ( which is like the soccer booths) you will get a degree and if you are intellectually gifted get a job without the influence of your parents. If you aren't so bright you might need the connection of your parent to secure a job( like how English players always get offers and loans easily even when they don't perform well in the current club)

If you are the public school chap in the university, who still manages to hold on to excellence in academic performance you must be really exceptional for that academics achievement to bring you a great job that totally liberates your family from poverty ( think that Nigerian working in big tech or Silicon Valley like Microsoft , google or Wall Street , or big oil firm) think of that one guy from university days who got such jobs on pure merit ( think about every Nigerian player who worked his way playing football in Nigeria before making headlines at the Dailies or national tv) it couldn't have been easy to be mikel obj at Chelsea or iheanacho at Manchester city (they both conquered the world by their hardwork respectively at under 20 for former and under 17 for the latter winning their nation laurels)

But the bottom line is , how many rich kids get good jobs after attending expensive and supposed good schools today? How many English players are in the first team of the top six teams of the EPL. The truth is everyone wants the best and whatever opportunity you are presented with in life it will always be up to you to make the best out of it.

Karlovych:
This is nothing but the truth, regardless of where a player is born they still need to put it the necessary effort to succeed as professionals even in the UK there are players who were very good art youth level but with time they fade away to obscurity.
Jordon Ibe is an example, Reece Wabara of Man City had to abandon football to start up his clothing business

zicky:
nobody is saying a UK base player don't need to put in effort. We are saying someone in Nigeria putting in the same effort with someone in said UK, will never yield the same result.

Karlovych:
The UK system is more organized than the Nigerian one, a lot of EPL teams have scouts that help identify potential talents and sign them up to their teams even before they become teenagers.

Until recently most Nigerian teams didn't even have a youth side or an academy so it is always going to be a difficult hurdle for an aspiring footballer to overcome.

TheGoodJoe:


I do not understand all this long story. A player has a chance to get a shot at playing for Chelsea because of his talent and hardwork. Another has little to zero chance of getting into Chelsea even if his is twice as talented and hard-working as a kid in England because he was born in Nigeria.

Yet you people want to equate it as the same opportunity. Haba.

That's england for you

They know how to hype average players

That's why one Uncle here said Diaz won't make Fulham team and Porto will be beaten by Leicester

Samueltemi337:
even West Ham go beat Porto


Abi nor be Lyon remove Porto for Europa league


the same Lyon way West Ham trash

chrisooblog:
It's simple really let's all not put our children in the best schools or hire the best tutors for them. Tell them to rely in their innate ability to succeed abi?

Whatever struggle kids in academies have over there Nigerian kids have 10x worse. At least such kids have quality academies where they are dropped off. Most Nigerian kids don't even have access to academies to go to before we even talk about quality.

VillageBus:
this one you are shouting Access to academy, did anybody stopped the nigerian kids from joining any local team close to them?
Simply join the feeders team of any npfl team in the state you stay, but no aspiring footballers in Nigeria want to move from there father's house to Europe.

andrewbaba44:


And Frankfurt beat westham

Ogogoro analysis and too much capping

Frankfurt also beat Barca and I guess they are better than Barca and even taiwo Awoniyi Union Berlin is better than Barca because they beat Frankfurt

Samueltemi337:
Na you bring that leg Na


because Diaz dey perform for Liverpool nor mean say Porto go perform well for premier league


Abi this one nor be ogogoro analysis too

andrewbaba44:


Only the epl big boys are better than Porto and that’s a fact .

Hanibal:

zicky:
oga I don't know how this is becoming rocket science for some of us here to comprehend the point goodjoe is making, two people putting the same level of hard work, one attending the best school and the other a village school, both doing very well, who do you think will get a better job. A player doing very well in say arsenal academy and another player doing very well in one local academy in Nigeria, who do you think have an edge. Better opportunity will always have the upper hand whatever way you choose to look at it.
