charlesemeka85:
if a player as bad as bonke can secure a move to the french ligue 1 then nwakali needs to do more because its obvious something tangible other than passing is missing in his game

andrewbaba44:


Emeka bonke is not a bad player

He played 2 games for eagles and I didn’t see the wrong thing he did

Na ndidi spoil all of una ,bonke did well in those 2 games and I think the eagles didn’t loose any of those game

kellycute:
take your bias opinion of Nwakali and shove it in your ass. The people who likes your bias agaisnt him should be ashame of themselves allowing you to infest them with your hate for anything Naija born. It is not a rocket science that you are always against any Naija born players that excelled from our youth set up. Osimhen, Nwakali and the next in line will be Amoo.

The pattern is very clear for those of us with eyes to see. You hate any players from our youth set up especially when they are fan favorite. Take your bias opinion and shove it in your ass!

codemaniacs:



You're not realizing what 12large1 is just realizing about Nwakali.. another thing most of you forget is that football is a job and most countries will want a quota of their indigenous players playing for the top teams and earning a big paycheck.

They will protect the top teams for their indigenes and other Europe:and..

Another thing is they have a perception or stereotype of African footballers especially CAM African players. They convert most of our CAMs to DMs or FBs or WBs.. e.t.c..

charlesemeka85:
he is a fantastic player, good passing and shooting ability and deadly on set piece but coaches of this generation loves players who are workaholic at the middle as well

if he can work on his off the ball side of the game believe me nwakali will shine and make a name for himself in europe atleast in ,mid table teams in top league

I will never slap a man and I do not expect men not to retaliate, I am fully for retaliation.

And if you saw unprintable names, it was directed more at the person you were laughing with, than at you. Sorry if you felt offended, my response to you was borne out of my own feelings of being offended as well.

I still do not appreciate some of the statements you made of my person, but I apologise if they were borne out of your need to retaliate

andrewbaba44:


He is playing at the afcon

He might be loaned out though ,just as the Percy tau case with Brighton

Sorry but in this occasion your taking Absolutely utter dross.

In the EPL many teams have fielded teams with sometimes not a single English players.

Indeed most of the teams in the EPL are dominated by Foreign players.

Nwakali was at Arsenal with probably more Nigerian origin players than most club's barring Chelsea.

I went to an U18 match years ago with Chelsea and Reading some of the players were barking out instructions in Igbo. I nearly fell over in shock

komekn:


Let me indulge your reprobate mind and your imaginary prejudiced assumptions.

I am also AGAINST according to you, Moses, Awoniyi ,Iwobi and Dennis who I have commended with objectivity, came from where , Peckham in your mind. .

AGAINST is your twisted self birthed perception. Because l will not join you, in going over the top about your favourite Nigerian players, in your mind that means AGAINST.

I am AGAINST Mediocrity, Favouritism and Nepotism.

And I am all for constructive criticism which is the key component that makes players better not going OTT when player does the ordinary.

But for those with preconceived notions and negative bias , there eyes are darkened with prejudice and BIAS, like yours.

It's obvious you don't know what BIASED means, let
me remind you , "lnclination or prejudice for or against one person or group, especially in a way considered to be unfair "

I gave very intrinsically clear key performance indicators that are used to measure a Midfielders performance. You ignored those to present your OTT hype.

I even acknowledge the three passes one very good and the rest just your average routine pass forward.

But on every other indicator he was poor, and in some areas very poor.

I Made it clear the contribution of Frank Onyeka ( who has upped his game on arrival in EPL) much to my surprise. Was profound he brought intensity, stamina, backtracking , tackles, physicality all in few paltry minutes.

I rated Frank Onyeka higher than Nwakali before this game and I still do even now. He brings way more than Nwakali. It beggars belief that he has been made to sit on the bench.

My deductions remain the same Nwakali is a mediocre player. Given undue favouritism by the powers that be for way too long in the NFF. But it's nothing new this is quite normal in the NFF.

We are all entitled to be our favourites, mine are Ndidi, Aribo and Onyeka in the midfield.

Finally, l have been commending Osimhen for year's but not the way you do, balanced and fair with constructive criticism.

PurpleHouse:


I beg to assure you that give Eguavoen the job, in few months you will begin to see players for Azbeskistan, Kaftanistan, Ekpomanistan.

Not a bad thing if he's getting the results. But in Nigeria, especially as a black coach, agents and influencers will pursue you with money that you cannot refuse.

TheGoodJoe:


And I assume you that you are just speculating what is on your mind. You do not know his character.

I know a Nigerian man that turned down a hundred million naira bribe. I know another that turned down 10,000 Dollars bribe. Oliseh left Sittard because he refused to play game that would have made him money.

So, you do not know his character to assure that

safarigirl:


LOL.

He is a Nigerian photo journalist in Cameroon currently.

Dem say CAF, players and photo journalists have an agreement on how photos are to be handled in the competition, so, let me see if I can find something on that

jihday:
Errrmmm….. but…. Never mind

Icon4s:
My own conclusion about this Nwakili case is that he has performed above expectations so far.

I had always known the boy had it in him but I kept wondering y his development had been slow. Appears he is not pushing himself well enough.

Well, this AFCON has really helped his career.i hope he can improve as the tournament continues.

daveP:

Even staff knows Onyekuru is the clown of the team. Nice bonding. Iwobi though. Doesn't seem eager, from the cliques formed. Might be wrong. Aribo looking like music artiste. Omeruo no wan comot Ndidi side. E no easy. Most of the young boys never even enter u17 when he was already a champ. He even looks younger than most of them.

12large1:


This last 2 games was the first time that I have watched him meticulously since the u17 cup and I have impressed. His short/long passes, intelligence, technique and most importantly set piece acumen is a joy to behold and frankly there’s no one similar to him on our team for now. If we can convince eze, ejaria or olise to switch Nationality, nwakali position will become replaceable

PDPGuy:
The draw for the playoff (final) round of the African World Cup qualifiers takes place at 4pm Nigerian time today.

What team would you prefer be drawn vs the SE?

My choice is DR Congo

jihday:
Errrmmm….. but…. Never mind

charlesemeka85:
the 2 number 10s we have or i will say players that can only fit in when deployed to that position is joe aribo and alex iwobi

also youth international amoo is another good mention

others if they decide to play for us are michael olise and ebere eze

Icon4s:


With our current form, bring any Team abeg.We no fear anybody again

Truidstar:


Oliseh has anger management issues and is also a control freak. He needs affirmation that he is the boss. His players at Sittard breathed a sigh of relief when he left. He got it right tactics wise but man-management was zero.

safarigirl:


God forbid

I can never like anybody the way I like Mikel, the closest person to that in this squad is Kelechi, not even Maduka. Where do I know Maduka from if no be 2019?

You know who Mikel be? Odogwu ụwa n'ile, player wey pay hotel fees for the whole squad without making noise, UCL, EPL and AFCON Champion, Olympics Bronze medalist, he even defied his coach to play for Nigeria, U-20 Silver Medallist.


Please O, I don talk am for this thread before, make nobody dey call Mikel name anyhow where I dey. Mikel na my own JJ Okocha, my own GOAT, he will always be untouchable.

jihday:
make una dey decent unasef, football is big business and these clubs just want to make money they don’t care about your skin color

Icon4s:


K. Nwakili has always been a technically gifted player. He was also the free kick specialist in that U17 team. Himself Osimhen and Chukwueze were the standout players of that tournament, and I am glad to see that Nwakili has joined the other two at the next level.
Our performances at U17 from 2013 to 2015 has started yielding fruits for the national team. The two sets alone produced:
Ndidi (2013)
Iheanacho (2013)
Uzoho (2013)
Awoniyi (2013)
Osimhen (2015)
Chukwueze (2015)
Nwakili (2015)
