elyte89:Olise is still better than him. Though I would prefer him to Ejaria if he shows consistency. 1 Like 1 Share |

Yeah, you are right. Pace, agility, workrate and loves to hug the ball. Still a good squad player but he cannot dictate the flow/tempo of a game. That thing he cannot do is the major difference between he and the Algerian Midfield general, Ismael Bennacer. Danielnino00: 2 Likes 1 Share |

Okoro is a special talent. He is on the United States Junior team. He feels more American, unfortunately. He was exceptional against my Miami Heat! BascoVanVeli: |

elyte89: your observations are very apt....he is a jorgihno kind of player dey no stress themselves with work rate....they just control the game with their passes and they're always ready to recieve passes....his major strength is his pass but his work rate is still poor and also needs to make himself available for ball...he needs that awareness like you've said and also composure....i think he is already ripe for the eagles considering the fact we lack depth in our midfield department it gonna be nice having him around to show what he got...but his performance yesterday was superb....despite the fact am not being one of his strongest critics.....his performance shocked me to my bone marrow.....he delivered an "elite midfielder's performance".....the freekick was ment..Good one ...local man is actually impressed. 1 Like |

ChrisKels: Let's tell ourselves the truth. Assuming Nwalkali is relatively unknown, given his performance with Alcorion some of us in this thread already will be clamouring for his invitation. Of every midfielder in perspective, Nwakali is the most suited for the CM role. He looks like the missing ingredient. In the pecking order: Nwakali-Etebo-Aribo-Ejaria. |
Re: "The Super Eagles Thread: The Road To AFCON 2025 And 2026 World Cup by drDoom3(m): 8:59am On Apr 13, 2021 |
Meliforme: Aribo is above Nwakali and Etebo. Like play like joke, it will be very funny when you see Aribo playing for a team like Liverpool in few years time. He is English, so it will be easy for him to get clubs in EPL. Plus Gerrard connection. The guy is just too good. Quick feet, dribbling, finishing, decent passes, smart on the ball, left footed. We don't know what we have in that guy. |
Re: "The Super Eagles Thread: The Road To AFCON 2025 And 2026 World Cup by andrewbaba44: 9:24am On Apr 13, 2021 |
Meliforme: But most of you where clamouring for his invitation when he was not doing well So what’s stopping you guys now ? You said if he is unknown,so what changes anything since he is popular here ? |
Re: "The Super Eagles Thread: The Road To AFCON 2025 And 2026 World Cup by Meliforme: 9:29am On Apr 13, 2021 |
drDoom3: Nwakali is the best fit for the CM role, looks like he is built for that role, He makes that role look easy. Seems like he has received special grace for the role. Nwalkali is a game dictator, he is like a choir leader, i can't really say that for Aribo. Aribo looks more mobile and flashy, but those attributes don't wow me. I look at impact. We are talking the CM role here. |

Albanian
Superliga
leading scorer
Patrick Friday
Eze has
claimed that
he would be
open to
playing for the
Albania
national team
as he has
been
continuously
overlooked by Super Eagles coach Gernot Rohr.
Eze is having an outstanding season at FK Kukësi,
scoring 12 goals in the league and also found the net
against Slavia Sofia in the first qualifying round of the
Europa League back in August 2020.
The Kaduna-born attacker first made his name in Europe
at Serbian Superliga club FK Mladost Lučani, ending
the 2014-2015 campaign as the top scorer in the division
with 15 goals.
Eze has no caps for the Nigerian national teams and the
1992-born player was not age-eligible to represent the
country in the 2016 Olympic Games.
Speaking to our colleagues at Tirana-based television
news channel Ora News, Eze said : "I never had the
opportunity to play any category, I never played in any
category for Nigeria.
"Of course if Albania call me I will come and happily
play".
Asked to name one team he wants to play for, Eze
responded : For the respect of other clubs, all the clubs
here are good, but my vision actually is to go to a better
league and a better situation where I can express more
of my talent.
"With much respect for Albanian teams but I intend to
see much more."
The 28-year-old Eze previously had spells with clubs in
Ivory Coast, Serbia, United Arab Emirates, Saudi
Arabia, Turkey, Poland and Jordan before his switch to
Kukesi last summer. |

I remember him, he's dad Alex Nwora was once a coach of D'Tigers. The NBBF should cap tie Precious Achiuwa and Udoka Azubuike from the 2020 draft class in the coming Olympics because these two guys were born in Nigeria and may easily agree to play for Nigeria compared to Isaac Okoro, Onyeka Okongwu and Zeke Nnaji who were born in the United States.

fabyom: No there is no junior team for NBA players. He played U17 when he was in highschool. I will go out on a limb and say he is well in tune to his Nigerian side just knowing the region he is from plus the fact his parents are from naija. He does answer Nigeria related questions. Just like when he told a reporter that naija players are so good because of the food The fact is that nobody on Earth will refuse playing on the dream team. Even Hakeem the Dream played for them so our best bet is to catch them before they even get to that level. 2 Likes 1 Share |

K.Nwakali is already top 3 in the Alcorcon team for Tackles per game stats at 1.4/game. He is top 7 in the team for Interceptions per game at 1.2/game. These numbers are a far cry from the numbers he picked up at Huesca before his loan move. This shows the lad is indeed improving on his marking and off-the-ball-movements and I also have the eye-test privilege of seeing all his games in La Liga Smartbank this season so far. I need not mention his other stats reports. He has been Alcorcon's undisputed Best player since he joined them doing strong bits in both the offensive and defensive phases of the game. So all this talk of Nwakali has to improve his marking is funny because he has been doing just that and just needs to be encouraged to keep it up and take the improvements even further. You guys should please stop analysing Nwakali by your past knowledge of his plays when you have hardly watched him play recently. Watch him in the present and analyse correctly. Thank you. Cc Chriskels (coz na you cause this talk). I have seen all his games so I know what I am talking about and the stats show this as well. You can even check this thread (link dropped below) made about Nwakali by a Super Eagles stan account called @OptaSuperEagles He really took his time and broke down everything on Nwakali at Alcorcon so far (prior to yesterday's game)... https://twitter.com/OptaSuper/status/1380602965971599362?s=20 Merci.
