It is clear as daylight and you can see clearly why it was inconclusive to rule a handball for Rodri.

This your inconsistency is really confusing. Now his performance in the AFCON is the reason he should be discarded. It is no longer about him being a useless player. This is someone who played less than 90 mins in the whole tournament, scored a goal, and played well in the last game. What happened to "your consistency in the in your club should get you to the SE"? So now you don't care if he gets to La Liga or not, he should not be invited anymore. If that is not bias, I don't know what is.

"You have to be a lion in a small league/club for you to be considered"...he has proven consistent over the past 2 seasons and is instrumental to Almeria's promotion fight. But alas, that is no longer acceptable.

"If he was that good, why has no team come for him"...but.. but... Ovie has been in the championship for many years and his mates have left him there. But this condition only applies to Sadiq.

You praised Vardy to high heavens here for rising form the lowly doldrums of English football to the premier league, but for Sadiq it doesn't matter. He's just not worthy to be in the SE. Again, if that is not bias, I don't know what is.

The way I see it, you really don't have the moral standing to accuse people of prejudice and bias.
He's the epitome of bias, the embodiment of prejudice. His criticism borders on hatred. His constant accusations that people have emotive bias and prejudice is nothing but projection. He himself is the king of bias

First of all, I never said Okocha is not a great, he won the Olympic, AFCON, included in Pele's top 125 of all time. That is a great player.

I said he isn't a European great.

Because his greatest achievements came in Africa not Europe.

Okocha is one of the best players of all time history.

I said Nwakaeme will be one of the greatest Nigerian players in Europe, something which Okocha isn't.



Okocha won 1 trophy in his whole career in trophy-winning clubs.


His two Balon d'Or nominations came in 95 after Nations Cup win and 96 after Olympics win.

His first BBC APOTY came in his first season in England after last day goal to keep them in league. BBC is English, don't forget.

His second BBC APOTY came after his 4 goals in AFCON 2004 as top scorer.

What did Onuachu do? Win the league for Midtjylland?

What did Dennis do? Aribo? Victor Moses? What spectacular things did they do?

"he's not even the top 7 goalscorers in Turkey"

Nwakaeme has 18G+A this season, the highest in Turkey and the second highest among any Nigerian in the world.


He has been Nigeria's best player in the last 5 years, and has won 33% of all Trabzonspor trophy this century.
Nwakaeme not great abeg whether in Europe or anywhere. He's just regular as regular can be.

The Goodjoe, pls lets leave that issue. Everton was robbed. The handball was as clear as daylight. Rodris hand was even flapping like an eagles wings.
1) It was not even in it's natural position.
2) The ball did not hit his chest it didn't even touch any part of his chest.
3) The ball was not coming from the too, so the shoulder is not even in the equation.
The ball simply bounced, did not hit the chest, did not touch the shoulder, and his hand twitched, Abeg with ur church mind, where it hit
Even the direction of the ball afterwards showed that something changed it's direction. And that thing no be breeze. My man leave matter. Liverpool was robbed of the chance to go top. Everton was d sacrificial lamb. QED

Many of you guys have a fault of paying attention. Those pictures you are showing is after the contact with the ball. His body is not in contact with the ball in those pictures. The picture I showed you was where the contact happened.

Then you go to display pictures after the contact. Please, foul happens when the player contacts the ball. This angle I showed, shows clearly when Rodri made contact with the ball and there was no conclusive evidence of handball for Rodri.

The image you're showing seems to contradict what you're saying. This contact is nowhere near his chest and I can clearly see his shoulder and it's distinct shape and the shadow it casts. How can that ball be said to be touching anywhere but his arm?

There is the arm area in the image. The ball is not clearly off the green area. The ball has to be totally off the green area of the arm. Not shoulder.

It was not clearly off. So it is no conclusive evidence of handball for Rodri.

Let us keep bias off this talk and debate points.




From this picture, is the ball clearly off the green area? Even though as Lescott pointed the freeze here is still wrong. The ball was higher than this.

So, if they rule against us, I won't feel hard done but I understand why it was ruled as inconclusive.

I watched his performance for the SE in the AFCON so even if he played for Bayern Munich or Manchester City.

My opinion would be the same he was an embarrassment to the SE, and was extremely poor in the AFCON. Because he scored a tap in doesn't all of a sudden make him Drogba. Everything about his centre forward play for such a big man was abysmal.

Try somebody else.

Ovie has been injured with a groin injury for months and has just returned under new Manager Paul Ince. I am not sure what the comparison is. Ejaria prior to injury was an outstanding player in the Championship and still is.

Finally, Segundo division and Championship are miles apart. And unless the financial inducement is considerably higher many player's opt to stay in the Championship for instance Ayew was on £83k a week in Swansea.

The other difference is Sadiq has had 4/5 seasons in first tier leagues but was anonymous and unable to progress. He has dropped to a much lower and less competitive league and now a Lion in the Segundo division.

He is outstanding in this league but then is this his level and can he produce the same level of progression in La Liga ? We will soon find out hopefully as his team seem well positioned to get to La Liga.

You need to understand what prejudice and bias means. You think he is great ,I think he is poor, that's not prejudice or bias. You have low expectations I have higher, very simple.

His performance in club and league got him selected to the SE. But his performances in the AFCON should get him deselected.

Thankfully we have Dennis, Ighalo and Victor O he is not needed.


Sadiq played in the Serbian and Dutch first tier and was outstanding..
You are just hating..

May I remind you that BBC African footballer of the year is awarded for the best African in Europe? The African footballer of the year is also awarded for his time in Europe so tell me what awards Nwakaeme amassed in Europe to even warrant a comparison because his 9 goals is measly, in comparison last season Simy scored 20 goals for relegation side Crotone, Iheanacho scored 19 goals for Leicester,Moffi scored 15 goals to save Lorient from relegation, Onuachu scored 28 goals to secure Genk the league, Awoniyi scored 13 goals for Union Berlin so tell me how Nwakaeme with his 9 goals is supposed to be a great? and Onuachu didn’t score 136 goals over the past 5 seasons for you to consider Nwakaeme as Nigeria's best player over that period

Why join the top 3 clubs, when you can make one yourself?

Jay jay is an afcon winner, stared in 3 World Cup with jaw dropping performances especially one got him a big money move then to psg which made him the most expensive African footballer then, he is a cult hero in the French,German and English league and conqured the Turkish league to an extend he was awarded citizenship by the Turkish government

Most expensive player in Africa? Is that an achievement? Then let's hail legend Nicolas Pepe.

PSG were so disappointed in Okocha that he admitted that they expected too much of him. In fact, he was begging the club not to release him before they let him go on a free.

Conquered the French,German and English league? How man? Chris Woods has scored double figures in each of his last 4 seasons in England, is that conquer?
Inaki Williams have contributed 12 goals in 6 of his 7 seasons in LA Liga. Is that conquer.

Napoli have only 13 trophies in their history, Maradona won 5 of them. That's what you call conquer. With trophies.

He is a cult hero in different leagues, so also is Ben Arfa. They call this players "street will never forget", or best not "greats".

Starred in three World Cups? Bro.
