andrewbaba44: Bro, you got to understand that some players are fan favorites and even when they play poorly, their fans will blame the rest of the team but them Even Umar Sadiq had a better afcon than Chukwueze Yes I said it. In our frontline, Chuks was the weakest Don't worry, if he doesn't improve , he'll go and join his brother in Segunda Division 2 Likes 1 Share |

Barryseal:You are the only one that didn't see the mention of Mikel's name during the afcon. Perhaps due to the large number of pages you missed you decided to skip some pages cos that is the only explanation I can give to this your statement. I recall you weren't really that present here during afcon 1 Like 1 Share |

Barryseal: Mikel average? Hahahhah. The things we get to read. His defensive midfield talent is grossly underrated..Mikel Obi has probably been our only real world class outfield player in the last 20 years.. He is one of the most intelligent and technical footballers 9ja ever produced.. I don't think you watched mikel play.. 3 Likes 1 Share |

oloriooko:Alex was massive yesterday,his dribbles,link up play and pressing were top notch The problem is that many expect iwobi to score goals always but if we observe his style of play he is not type of player. Iwobi is a typical Arsenal groomed player who style is based on simple passes and link up play which makes a core ex Arsenal’s manager wenger type of player Alex is not that fancy and flamboyant player as many of us mistake him to be but an efficient figure when it comes to high pressing and linking the midfield to the attack. He is not a traditional winger who is expected to take on players, put in crosses or cut in to score but will say is a hybrid winger/AM who loves to drift into the middle always to link up play Having him in a team most especially when deployed to the flank gives more advantage to the team in terms of creativity and indirectly gifts the team the luxury of playing with 2 attacking midfielders because of his nature of drifting to the middle to create chances 5 Likes 2 Shares |

Joezinho:even if iwobi keeps this form when dele Alli comes to his height and gives the type of performance that earned him the PFA young player of the year back to back iwobi would be rooted to the bench even if he dazzle like okocha the best thing will be moving him to the wing's we want Iwobi to play but damn he won't bench dele Ali ![]() |

Barryseal: TheSuperNerd: Looooolll.... the post above was dated January 5, 2022. This is just a part of it. Also, When was 26th April 2021? It's Sunday yet you cannot help dropping fallacies. Most times, people like you just come in here and cap nonsense. Here below is the Official Uefa Champions league post on Mikel that went viral and which made Drogba drop this comment as seen in the pic shot below: https://twitter.com/ChampionsLeague/status/1386698200040488966?t=k807iJSFefiZQYMKXpX1Jw&s=19 @first bolded.... your post is literally someone saying "I didn't watch Mikel Obi" without actually admitting that he didn't watch Mikel Obi.

Brilliant clip. Part of the key to pulling this curling shot action off was the quick switch of play to Zaha's wing putting him one on one with a defender enabling him to use his footwork to cut into his favorite right foot and execute the strike. Strike would have been harder to pull off if he had 2 or 3 defenders on him in a double or triple up. So Olise's diagonal long ball to Zaha was a "perfectly timed" beautiful switch of play to a less concentrated area of the field that caught the opponents a little off-shape on that wing and gave Zaha more room on the left to cut in and shoot. Chukwueze used to execute similar strikes like this from the edge of the box on the right in his breakout Pro season at Villarreal so I hope he gets his mojo back coz his Afcon showing was really underpar.

Excellent post. All I have been saying on the Playmaker role from deep (CM-Playmaker/DLP) is right here. I hope some learn this and WATCH our lads enough to tell the difference and not depend on write-ups from people who only uses Goals and Assists to rate a Playmaker. Lol A Playmaker conducts, directs and orchestrates. Goals and Assists are bonuses to his game. But because some feel it is always about Agenda, they keep going blind to the obvious which is easily observed through simple eye test from a standpoint of genuine neutrality. Honestly, it's funny that they had to wait for you to bring the definition from an outside source before they finally understand when all that is here is what I have explained and even over-explained overtime. Funny lots. ![]() Meliforme: 1 Like 1 Share |
