Chief but seriously where's this hate you speak off? Most posters that criticize Nwakali always give fair assessments of his performances.

Plus why would anyone hate a player who can improve the SE if he's doing well?

daveP:
Mikel didn't even get this hype


Infact mikel is the most dragged sef despite all his exploit. Nobody said we hate mikel. Abi has anyone forgotten how safari used to defend mikel that year ni due to the dragging?

daveP:



The thing is we should hype with sense. Once a hype peaks the Delulumeter, no sort of explanation or defence can make it settles ever again.


Someone has not played for SE in even an afcon, and they're already saying he's better midfielder than Sofyan that was consistent with top Performance at the World cup vs teams that SE can't even really brag of defeating??


Then someone added KDB to the mix

I have to lose it. I must lose it like the basketball babe that gave Liz Cambage flying Stone cold punch. Haba.

It's further annoying that the hype is way more than what others have gotten in last 20yrs from Naija football.


Kilode!!!

which Amoo🥱😳

No be only Amoo na Amu 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Kog45:
Yes people dragged Mikel no be small o…I remember my cross with Michael2 on Mikel here.

maidaboi:
many were not here when Mikel been world class debate happened

TheGoodJoe:


There is literally a campaign against Kelechi Nwakali here and it has nothing to do with his performance. Most who criticize are actually people that have watched nothing about him. It is not issue based but just pure negativity.

Joebie:
It’s a hype when you make it seem bigger than what it is.

Was Nwakali one of the best in the Segunda last season? YES.
Has he started this season brightly? YES
Is he SE material today? YES if he continues this way in Liga Portugal.
Is SE in need of his skill set (dead balls, hold up play, pin point long passes etc)? YES

O pari.

Kog45:
Sincerely we need him in SE based on what we have but when there is contrary opinion it is hate on him

Next the haters crew will say you are hyping him too much.

Joebie:
I still dey wait for who go accuse me of hyping Nwakali .

TheGoodJoe:


Hate is when someone says Kelechi Nwakali is being hyped when no is hyping him.

If someone has a contrary opinion, the person should state it.

The person can say we do not need his attributes or there is a player that offer the attributes better than Kelechi Nwakali.

Any other thing is not logical in the debate.

Joebie:
Wait. Who never play for SE for AFCON?

Joebie:
I don’t think it all started that way. There was a time I argued that Nwakali has not performed to warrant invitation to SE. And it was the fact then because the stats were not good enough even in a lower league.

It was me and some of us against Nerdie and a host of others then. I remember cautioning one of those in my group that if we are not careful some of us will never see anything good about the player no matter what. So we need to separate these things and not be biased.

When a player is doing well, say it as it is. If the player is not meeting up, say it as well.

Modified
If you are playing in a lower league you have to be among the best there. It has to be proven.

AndSunGorilla:

But Joe,yes Nwakali played in AFCON but what about the comparison to KDB and the temerity to say Nwakali is better than Amrabat?
Anyway make I talk my own, Moses Simon is better than Messi and Messi won't make our 1st 11 :

TheGoodJoe:


He brought a statistic and it is up to anyone who disagrees to counter with stats. Nothing else.


I am currently running the profiles of midfielders that can give you at least 1.8 to 2 accurate crosses per game.
I can only find two names for now:
Kelechi Nwakali
Kevin De Bruyne.

TheGoodJoe:


However, if we need a player who has a particular attribute that we need, and he is not the best in Europe but the best among those in our team, he should be called up.

Saying he is playing in a low league is missing out the key point, which is the attribute he offers. That must be factored into the debate.

Here we go again Nwakili segunda accurate passes rating compare to others midfielders in top leagues.

TheGoodJoe:


The league he plays in does not change the stat. You can say we can take the stat with a pinch of salt. I never saw anyone run down Mitrovic, Nathan Tella, or Akpom's championship stats.

chrisooblog:
That's the thing you make it sound as if people are beefing a player who has been doing averagely well for a couple of years while the reality is he hasn't exactly been anywhere noticeable to attract 'hatred'.

Kog45:
Baba me no be division two fan so my judgement is always based on division one player,reason why I insisted Nwakili must move to division one then we talk and good he is there now,let’s keep on watching

You are not exaggerating my good man.
Amrabat is a midfielder many admire, but i will tell you this:

Comparing Nwakali to Amrabat will fill you with admiration for the man Nwakali.
There are aspects of the game that I have found Nwakali to be ahead of Amrabat, because Nwakali is more technical.
Press resistance, defending and duels, long passes and crosses of the ball, dribbling etc, are areas Nwakali appears to be ahead.
Judging the abilities of both players, you will find Nwakali a more complete midfielder.

Let's jettison preconceived notions and face pure facts that are before us.

Meliforme:



Which records?
I beg you to please state the records

Amrabat will not enter Super Eagles first eleven with ease.
