EPL is not the best league in the world.... it is the european league with the highest rating in Europe... just because someone plays there does not make them better than other players... You can't compare the opportunities someone who was born in England will get in England compared to people born outside England..

If Lookman was better than Simon, Leeds will be after him... samuel kalu just joined Watford does that make him better than simon, onyekuru, olayinka, ejuke

and nwakali the midfield maestro never get assist this season

It's not every nonsensical proposition without substance do I respond to. As well as indulge misguided youthful exuberance.

But to show you the error of your ways and maybe you might just learn something, as it's obvious your limited life experience, has not taught you.


However, the application suffered a long delay due to the player's inability to sort out his Nigerian passport as well as his failure to provide a written request for a change of association in line with Fifa regulations

I really don't know the validity of this statement supposedly coming from the NFF. If it is, it's shameful open display of crass incompetence or something even more sinister, wilful intended to delay.

The written request is an administrative formality confirmation it will take you 1 minute to type. Giving your express wish to change your national team allegiance. Getting your passport is a day job.

A competent national football administrative body. Will simply type it out in a standard format ( you should have this format on file) you email the player to sign and return e- signature should suffice. But even if original are required first class UK is next day recorded and signed it costs £2/3.

The passport talk is just hilarious nonsense. You should know I know a few of our Nigerian origin players. Who have played for Nigeria.

The NFF facilitated they simply went to Nigeria High Commission, Northumberland Ave. London. Sat in the High Commissioner office, and within less than two hours, Nigeria passport was in their hands.

I am really surprised how full and dopey some people are to believe this codswallop. That's if it is really TRUE a statement from the NFF

In the past 2 years and presently, Epl isn’t just one of the best leagues in the world, it is the BEST league in the world. You forgot the part that I said “inform” if any of the players you listed can perform at the big 3, they will take precedence over backwater league players. Quality over Quantity. There’s a reason why I didn’t rank lookman ahead of dennis on current form

AndSunGorilla:

Sounding like a broken record.

He has been playing in the Swedish and Norwegian league for about 10 year's. He then was released i.e. contract not renewed and he goes to relegation bound team in the French League in 2022.

Although he is a DM l find it very strange that in 10 seasons he never scored one goal in the league.

These are not the attributes of a player that one will call outstanding.

Maybe you know something more than the clubs he played for in the lowly Swedish league. Please educate me.

Joebie:
I don’t know about you but I’m super glad about this

Joezinho:


But he plays as a deep lying playmaker in some games right?

andrewbaba44:


Since they cannot drop anyone for lookman according to you ,who are they dropping to accommodate Dennis

mostob:
ungingered Partey, when shooting, na innocent fans on the stands go dey suffer...imagine how a gingered Partey will be like...na outside the stadium Dem go dey pick the balls.

andrewbaba44:


But one of olayinka and sadiq umar are too good to be dropped to accommodate lookman ?

I would have called lookman if not for quota system

TheGoodJoe:

Do not pretend as if you do not get what the bolded meant.

All this while, Lookman was not ready to switch. Probably holding out to see if he had a chance with the English team. As long as he did not produce that request, NFF could not proceed with the switch.

As soon as he sent the request, it was possible to make the switch.

So you can end your campaign that the NFF were the ones delaying the switch. It was Lookman.

FINITO.

daveP:


He should be allowed to play the role he plays at Rangers. He should be freed up to shoot and score imo. This sacrifice that barely makes the middle have their own chance at goal is stale o.

BascoVanVeli:
Not sure if this has been posted here but our Basketball ladies had a big big win over France yesterday. Came all the way from 20 points down.

He plays as a DLP in some games in rangers and even in nigeria. So i am wondering why they said he can't play as a DLP.

Danielnino00:


In comparison to playing in the WNBA, going to medical school will pay her much better..
It wasn't until the Becky Hammon salary story made news that I bothered to find out how much they pay in the WNBA...The highest paid player there isn't earning up to 300k per season... That's damn poor .. That's why almost all WNBA players play overseas during the off season to earn more cash ..


Meanwhile,there hasn't really been more update on the status of her sisters playing for Nigeria...

Joezinho:
Some peeps are funny here.. Lookman"a addition is a great news. It adds to the competition for spots.

Chukwueze was piss poor during the AFCON and he’s been underwhelming for SE so he shouldn’t be an automatic starter.

Lookman is a baller through and through and knows how to deliver a cross on a sixpence...

Give me a frontline of Lookman, Osimhen, Dennis...

If possible mk nff reach out to Bournemouth’s billing again

Dude hv been doing very well in the championship this current season

Ayam in my house eating white soup with fufu so come n beat me

andrewbaba44:


25 games 8 goals and 6 assist is really impressive for a midfielder

Bournemouth will be in the epl soon

charlesemeka85:
when I tell you guys that the hate for kids born in the diaspora is real here una go say I be as****licker

We are suppose to be happy that a great addition as lookman is in our disposal now but to few here they are just pained to see another British born player in the mix

The only 2 wingers based on current form that I won’t drop for lookman in the current eagles set up is Simon and Dennis, others lookman is better than them based on current form

andrewbaba44:


Most people here don’t hate abroad born players here so calm down

The few people that are against lookman is because of that our Warri guy in the Uk ,the way he talks down on naija born ,nothing else

How many people hate Ekong balogun ebuehi ? They where all born abroad and they are loved by many here


And for you ,anything wey be abroad good to you ,when they where telling you Maduka Okoye was shaky you Dey see am as hate but you later kept quiet
