Joebie:
The stats show where Ndidi is better and otherwise. You are making a different argument.
If you need more physical presence and players to win aerial duels in the midfield your go to man is Billing. That’s also important to help a team keep possession. Billing has played more as a CM than DM in this current season. So here is a place for Billing in other areas when needed.

Bolowolowo:
Current Eagles as Managers...See Ndidi

Blueelf:


Mikel is not a current Eagle.

Yobo's scenario is highly unlikely unless he improves his credentials

Subzero047:


The thing is, Iwobi does not have the mindset of a professional footballer, he doesn't train, he has a poor cardio, he is more interested in being a celebrity than being a footballer

Carlo Ancelotti prefers a 4-4-2 formation and I'm struggling to see where he would fit in the new Everton side

komekn:


You sure say u go uniben ❓

Maybe you did but I doubt if you are from Edo or Delta states. Or you ever lived there.

Because your understanding of the Edo and Delta pidgin is seriously seriously questionable. You seem not understand the terminology and meaning and dramatic comedic impact or if you like tongue in cheek.

I am sure Edopesin and Joebie can definitely school you.

You have totally misconstrued my words and substance in the pidgin that was used to convey the message.

Joebie:
“England was never going to give me a chance to play for the senior team, that’s the difference. Nigeria gave me the pathway to play for their senior team,” Aina was quoted as saying in an Instagram Live interview by the Punch. “I probably would have made it there at some point but Nigeria told me I can make it here now, it was a no-brainer.”

— goal

Iwobi does not have the mindset of a professional footballer? can you imagine what you just said, you are now confirmed as a certified beer parlour analyst

Make iwobi no do style again make e no dress fine and wear diamond ? I wonder what people like you will say of neymar because that dude is the most stylist player at the moment

Iwobi doesnt train? Do you work as a coach at EVERTON to say all this ?

Ogbeni you are speaking in the nonsense

D Amokachi
Assistant coach to Keshi at 2014 WC


"Brown(Ideye) for me was one player that I regret that we did not take to the World Cup in 2014,"

"Hundred percent I didn't know how he didn't make that list," he added. "I never saw it coming that he didn't make the list till when the list came out and we found out."
"We ended up going to the World Cup with players that even me I don't even know."


Okay,
Let's hear from Pinnick


Q: Was the team to the World Cup in Brazil not ambitous enough?


A: I do not have anything against Keshi. He has done so well for Nigeria. He remains the first Nigerian to win the Nations Cup as a player and a coach... Football has gone beyond having a coaching crew on the bench. The trend is now to have the technical backroom staff, peopled by expert coaches, who win matches from the bench... That is why nearly all the teams at the World Cup have the technical backroom staff. But Nigeria did not have that and that was because Keshi did not want it. He thought that they were going to take his job away and we all saw in Brazil that it could have been very different if we had such technical experts in the backroom, advising Keshi during match days or even before.

People had mindset before going to the World Cup. What was Keshi's plan at the World Cup? Was it to win the trophy? If his plans were to win the World Cup or develop our team for the future, we would have said said yes, we tried. If he wanted to win the World Cup, he would have gone with Obafemi Martins, Ikechukwu Uche and Ogbuke Obasi because they are all match winners. I watched Obasi in action for his Schalke during my trip to Germany and saw how he laid the assist that led to the first goal and scored a beautiful goal, which made me call Keshi to ask if he was watching the game and taking note of Obasi's contributions and he said yes. But I was shocked when these guys were not included in the team to Brazil for the World Cup. Obasi was hot this season.


Okay, I'm done.

All of you asking for their names to be named. Apparently, Keshi was totally and solely in charge of his squad(i'm not counting NFF o), to the extent that even his assistants don't know how he picks his players

Law Enforcement will have a case if they get players affected to testify. There have been many players involved in this. If you get 3-5 to testify, you have a strong case.

There would also be bank transfer records in some cases.

Many players will not want to go that route, it draws attention to them. Even Obasi is getting pressured and he mentioned no names.

Olulong:


In the nonsense and in the rubbish my bro. Las Las iwobi will still bench Ejaria and Eze

BascoVanVeli:
Billings would be a great addition but my joy will come from getting Saka.

somehow:


then they should come together and follow your advise if they want this rubbish to stop!

BascoVanVeli:



Same Amokachi that was accused of forcefully selling watches to our players. What do u think would have happened if any of them refused.

The Bull is a legend but Keshi rightfully sacked him for his disloyal behavior.

Olulong:


As per you they follow am go training abi??

Subzero047:


Yeah I follow Iwobi a lot and I can't tell you he devotes a lot more time to partying than training

ChrisKels:
Hey Komekn, sorry I couldn't login in the night, had a naughty Saturday evening that got me drained, hence, I retired earlier to have enough rest.

I woke up to some missed calls, and a text message that read. "Thanks Kenechukwu for your kindness, I got the money and I pray God continues to bless you and replenish the pocket from which this came".


I wasn't gonna be taking pizzas while my neighbor starves, I would make do with our usual delicacies till things come back to normal. Hence, I provided you with the account number of the woman who hawks sliced pineapples around the entrance of my estate. Life hasn't been that easy for her since the inter-state lockdown because she buys her commodities from the neighboring state, Ebonyi.

Even though ur intentions werent good, I would say thanks for blessing her and those prayers and good wishes from her, should actually be directed to you.




That said, I remain Chriskels, as long as u remain komekn the Southgate of this honorable thread

elyte89:



From Nigeria ,ogbeni swerve

barackodam:
Iwobi that was a starter at Everton, before his injury.

And the one that has played almost all the matches since Ancelotti, does not train.

A player that does not train will start for a middle table team?

Issokay

Subzero047:


Yeah I follow Iwobi a lot and I can't tell you he devotes a lot more time to partying than training

Olulong:


So an Unserious player will be a starter in a Top ten EPL club under a manager like Anceloti??

Subzero047:

[s]
Ancelotti has managed 12 Everton matches and Iwobi has only played 3 of them

So how is he a starter[/s]?

tbaba1234:

Some of them are the ones offering coaches money

We are largely anonymous on this thread.

For some that means l can say anything l like without any sense of right or wrong.

I take the view that one will have to give account for his words and if l loose anonymity, would I be ashamed of those words. Certainly not.

For me this forum is largely light hearted entertainment and banter. I do not take anything that serious. Absolutely nobody can offend me because l don't take offence.

For that reason you will never see me use vitriolic acidic rhetoric and abusive language to anybody. That is true even in my personal capacity.

I may use very diplomatic language and long drawn out diction to say someone lacks common sense and or more. But abuse a big capital No.

Nonetheless, over the years our words are recorded whether they are lies or truth. They say something about us. They paint a picture about us.

In my professional capacity l am always 95% of the time the only black person. I come across ignorance and blatant discriminatory racism very often.

My response is to show those ignorant racists overwhelmingly consideration and love. To a point they become ashamed of thier ways and begin to see me and other black people in completely different light. It means that l can not get bitter from the bitter racism l am shown. It's actually biblical.

But back to you.

I do not lack discernment to see the spirit behind most of your comments and the nature of them. However, I choose not too be like you and not reciprocate. I can not anyway, because it's simply not in my nature.

We know as a man thinketh so he is. To the pure all things are pure and to the impure everyone and everything is impure. So what you perceive is not neccesarily a truth but a reflection of yourself.

I was born in UK but made in Warri.

I spoke in comedic tongue and cheek language specifically Warri pidgin, in light hearted banter.

I am almost certain Edopes.in, andrewba.ba44 and Joe.bie will bear me witness.

However, when ChrisKels responded giving his address. I remember our Warri saying "na joke joke, people deh take talk true". Maybe he really needs some help I thought


I thought too remove any stigma let me gather the forum to eat along with him albeit of us together, albeit it Virtually. l truly was looking forward too it. The spirt here is brotherly love and consideration in jokingly way, not insult and abuse (as you somehow have alleged)

You called me to honour my words.

I then gave you a proviso, that you should take a picture so we can all join in and eat with you AGREED. Indeed a quite a few people were looking forward to the event, again in light hearted fun. But you have spoiled it.

But now you have shown a lack of of truth integrity, honour and even civility.

You can't cover unrighteousness, lies and deceit with a supposed good deed.

It would have been better you took the money and explained say tings tight oh bros , l decided to cook one pot of Oha soup and show us, everyone will understand, even hail u join.

But what you have done here hmmm is simply not RIGHT, after calling me to honour my words.

Subzero047:


Ancelotti has managed 12 Everton matches and Iwobi has only played 3 of them

So how is he a starter?

Subzero047:


I'm not talking about team training, I'm talking about personal training

I challenge you to bring up a photo or video of Iwobi personal training since this Coronavirus lockdown, and don't tell me he does it secretly

Subzero047:


The thing is, Iwobi does not have the mindset of a professional footballer, he doesn't train, he has a poor cardio, he is more interested in being a celebrity than being a footballer
