Same thing applies to Idennaa AKA Omanambala and Odenigboaroli on Aribo. Lol

Idennaa, respects my man but after I saw your mention of my moniker asking for some Comparative analyses from me, omo, I had to ignore ooo... I don't wanna be part of any agenda against any of our lads. grin


This is low down dirty and inaccurate. I prefer Nwakali because he can hold the midfield better than Aribo , which statistics shows. How many chances has Aribo created in this competition ? Who has better pass average ?Long ball ? dead ball ? You know the truth but you are acting ddumb or what ? Please , when you quote me say what i said and don't make up some idiotic comments.

I don't make arguments in vacuum; I stated exactly why i want Nwakali but you conveniently ignored that that write the nonsense you have above. This will be the second time i am calling you to order. Please , get your facts right.

But , in case you have a memory loss or comprehension problems i will repeat myself again.....read below because i will not be correcting you again.

Aribo is not a midfield conductor which weakens our midfield because Ndidi will have to sit back because to calm things in the middle....we have seen that Ndidi played his best games in the presence of Nwakali but struggles with Aribo....Nwakali has better stats than Aribo in this tournament....fact!

Remember I have often criticized Ndidi for his limited ball playing involvement but I never condemned his quality ,but I have seen andrew44 saying I hate Ndidi. But , of course , andrew is not a man of logic. Danielnino actually corrected him about my position on Ndidi. People here are fueled by emotions including you. How could you put me and komekn in same subject. Komekn that turns logic upside down.


In my books Nwakali is a better midfielder than Aribo when it is down to the basic duties of a midfielder.....You can play Aribo when you careless about the welfare of your midfield, because we all know Aribo cant orchestrate the midfield. Yall praise the guy to high heavens but Nwakali stats has been better....

@Komken Nwakali had a decent game and as I was praying he is best using his opportunity to show us what he could do. I really loved his set pieces which could prove to be useful in tight matches. I would hope he works on his defending though. Too soon to mention his name along Mikel because the gulf in class is clear though I can see potential. As for Sadiq he really needs to sort his personal issues out and I also do not think he should play with Nacho as both don't mark.
Please who was the new substitute with dreadlocks that played right back?
That guy is good. Would love to see more of him. You will always know a natural baller.

Used to be a fan of Eze. But not anymore. Yes, he'll be a good addition to the team, and probably bitting his fingers now seeing whats happening. But that's his headache. Amoo is coming.

As for Olise, if he's seeing this games we've played, he'll be stupid to not want to play for the best team in Africa. And even if he choose otherwise, who cares? Amoo is coming.

Another jealous fellow whose opinions end here while mine keeps breaking boundaries and going international. grin

Weak attempt at disproving my claims. Why didn't you ask these when Kessie was being humbled and dragged by Sierra Leonean and Guinean Midfielders in the first two games?? grin

Where were his "brains" then? grin

He meets a psychologically broken Algerian Midfield and he suddenly regians his mojo using his power and brawny style of play to dominate. Isn't that coincidence?

Astrid... so please try again.

I maintain my stand... Kessie is more brawns than brains, O superficial one of football. grin

Nwakali has a good game though
But as regards to set piece we have nothing much to lose, Simon Moses is a very good setpiece take, I think he gave to corner assist last season, one to omerou and another to ekong against Tunisia.
Nwakali is just so lucky to playing around hardworkers like ndidi and ajayi, cos ajayi pushed forward, the duo was able to cover up for his poor workrate, just like kante/kovavic cover up for jorgihno, and just in case we are playing against an high pressing team, make any coach no just try play nwakali grin grin or else that one go dey catastrophic, but as regards to orchestrating, conducting of the midfield he is good I will never rate him highly in passes, his passes were low for an acclaimed 'elite midfielder' though he has the highest passes but I was looking forward to a Thiago alcantra or jorgihno kind of play but work rate wise and off the ball movement were just so poor. I rate 6/10. My candid opinion though

Against the Sierra Leone and guinea match, he never put up a wrong he was close to perfect, his position awareness, defensive game,passing range, workrate were just so great, and that was despite the fact he was played as a traditional DMF he wasn't given the freedom to operate offensively but today he gave his Atlanta's performance he was playing as a CMF today in a double pivot role today sangare was playing the DMF and he rewarded the gaffer with a good goal.

I watched the Sierra Leone and guinea, he played more as brawl without brain to the physical nature of the Sierra Leoneans and guinea players against a more superior technical side, he outshine all the Algeria midfielder this is to prove the point I made kessie is an all round midfielder if you're coach that prefer to use his physical skillset he will give you his best and if you prefer to use his technical skillset he will give you his 100%,he gave the both skillset in the last three games for his team

And yet after these disjointed yammerings, you watched Nigeria's game yesterday and declared the best ball passer on the pitch as having "low" passes. You dared downplayed his influence in the middle.

Mister... you are not to be taken seriously at all. Stick to the European football section where you lots only know how to throw banters, argue isolated stats and make "my club better pass your club" arguments.

Your insights are highly superficial. Sorry bro.

I share your sentiment bro, but you can undermine the physical aspect of the game, jorgihno would have been one of the greatest midfielder in the world if his physicality were just dope. The likes of Kante, debruyne were been regarded as the greatest midfielder because of their technical aspects and also you have nothing to take away from their physical aspect of the game.
