Every Nigerian Real deal Talent/Player is given the "hypes" and "attention" they deserve by me in here. That I properly analyse them is part of the many reasons why my moniker in here is reverred by several football platforms & groups outside NL and nationally. Some even track me to my twitter account which I deliberately don't wanna blow up. Some have invited me to join them but I have turned them down as I don't want to be part of every group and my time schedule also cannot afford it. A few have also approached me to work on a sports project with them but I have my own thing. I am highly selective of the groups I join. My time is precious. Now, a little of the spotlight is again on Kelechi Nwakali. A lad who has been talked down upon and called useless and incapable of football. So it is part of my football analytics duty to show that all those talks are rubbish and powered by nothing short of ignorance and mere disgust. Look below at Ponferradina fans on twitter AGAIN cherishing his midfield displays on his return to football since being shut out at Huesca post Afcon. Yuri scored 2 goals but it is Nwakali who stays on their lips and he is even leading a Ponferradina fans poll for MOTM award for yesterday. https://twitter.com/U_Deportivista/status/1561814882508587010?t=Ng34yDmGDomQf8Rlr30Dbw&s=19 This is not hype... it's just the truth being manifested. Performances vindicating what the likes of Myself, TheGoodjoe and co have been pointing out since like forever. In the end, it's not eureka at all... We hope he keeps it going. Ofcoz not all hope for this... ![]() 7 Likes 2 Shares

TheSuperNerd: F**k men. This is a heavy compliment but I think his coach should also get the accolades he deserves. I am not missing Kelechi Nwakali's next match just because of this compliment. Amunike called him a gift to football. I hope he fulfills his potential. Props for the good work smart one. 4 Likes 1 Share

charlesemeka85: You don't understand how these things work. It comes with an exhilarating feeling. Like for instance, I never adored the deep playmaking skills of Gatusso. This is coming from someone who watched these guys closely. The Spaniards are advanced when it comes to studying football. They pioneered this revolution in football. He is seeing something. It is not where you play but your decision making and thought pattern. Your touch on the ball and match reading capability. Mikel was playing on the Street when Babawo Mohammed found him. A secondary school boy. As soon as he played for Kashimawo Laloko, he said he had found the best player in the country. That is academy football. So saying lower league is not the point. 1 Like 1 Share |

I just pray his performance this season will be a stepping stone for Kelechi. The talent is there, he just needs to work hard more. Call me whatever you want, I really wish to have Ndidi, Iwobi and Nwakali manning our Midfield. But till then, Sultan, Onyedika and the likes should be invited for next friendlies. 5 Likes |

charlesemeka85: For instance, I did not watch Roy Keane as a playmaker. I always saw him as a destroyer. It was Wayne Rooney that pointed out that Roy Keane was the best passer in Manchester United and Ferguson saying he was going to turn Mikel to the next Roy Keane. That is when I started paying attention. This man praising Kelechi Nwakali listed Roy Keane. Shows his depth of Knowledge. Sometimes,you stop arguing and open your listening notes. 1 Like 1 Share |

mostob: Ndidi has the work rate but he needs to develop his passing. A deep playing pivot is becoming key if you must play possession football. You need a deep player that can combine with the defenders to play out of the back. I am seeing potential in Samson Tijani for that role. Ndidi might have to fall to defence but his passing might still prove a liability. 2 Likes 1 Share |

mostob: how can you wish for something that should be tested in friendly matches... if not for such foolish mentality, players like Simy Nwachukwu, Samuel Adegbenro, Yiro sor, Awoniyi, Amoo, will be getting more caps in the S.E. S.E had players playing top division football against Tunisia and Ghana and Super Eagles still couldn't beat them... |
Re: "The Super Eagles Thread: The Road To AFCON 2023, 2025 And 2026 World Cup by codemaniacs: 1:16pm On Aug 23, 2022 |
TheGoodJoe: there are different types of passing but summarized into short passes and long passes.. you didn't specify which one Ndidi is average at... If his passing his average then let the coaches tell players to play short passes because Eguavoen's tactics didn't help Ndidi's cause due to fact that all the attacking players were always far away from the defensive players including Ndidi... 2 Likes |

codemaniacs: It is not just Eguavoen's tactics but his playing style. You can't class Nididi as a playmaking defensive midfielder. It is not every defensive midfielder that can play like Rodri or Busquets |

charlesemeka85:So what's the criteria to know who merits it and who doesn't? Everyone should hype who they feel they should hype and leave others to hype theirs. That's not too much to ask now. |

kingphilip:the criteria is doing it big in top league and clubs not in obscurity Lets hype those that deserves it as well as possess the potentials to reach the very top not strugglers in europe lower leagues for over 5 seasons now I bet that footballing nations in Africa like Cameroon,Ghana,Algeria,Morocco etc won’t dare to rave about a 2nd tier struggling player the way few folks do here on a daily We no get shame? There is nothing wrong in giving him a mention whenever he performs but not blowing it to high heavens as if no player of Nigerian origin has such performance in the last decade Even when mikel played and bossed games against top clubs in epl and Europe for Chelsea no fit attract the hype nwakali gets here on a daily ![]() 1 Like |

Guy at the end of the day you can't stop anyone from talking up any player. As much as I think Nwakali gets unnecessary hype the dude does have some talent. If he can somehow pick up his career and get to start playing proper elite football, it's Nigeria in the end that will benefit from it. Not that I mind the bants. ![]() charlesemeka85: 1 Like 1 Share |
