Nwakali is more than good enough.. if he is doing good it's because he is good..

If Spain 2nd division is poor then why is England relegated from nations league group A

Spain is in the semi-final

Stop saying rubbish...

What is he doing good , he has been rejected with terminated contractd in every club he had been until he found a place in Segundo division with the almost bankrupt Ponferradina FC.

The team has played 15 games and had won only 5 games they are in the relegation zone going down.

What is he doing so good that his team have only been able to win 5 games out of 15.

Nwakali struggled to get into Porto B and Huesca tried to terminate his contract early and get rid of him. Why because he was too good.

Incidentally Huesca are number 7 in the league and Ponferradina is s 18.

Nwakali has found his level after near 8 years in Europe.

But in all these cases they were outstanding in the league.

Nunez was a teenage prodigy that had not played a season of first team football in his home country Uruguay.

Comes to the moi moi Segunda division as essentially a youth players and is joint 4th in first season. The rest is history.

Sadiq had played 7 seasons of football in Europe and found the Segunda division the perfect anchorage to move forward with limited quality.

Nwakali is not outstanding in the league, some people here give him accolades the minute he wears his team jersey. He is just making up numbers and hasvbeen for the past seven years in Europe.
This season might just be Nwakali's perfect Anchorage too, right? You made valid points about Nunez, but the Sadiq example gives Nwakali hope too. And according to the stats that Joebie has been churning out, it appears Nwakali has been an outstanding CM in the segunda this season.

But they are taking it to the extreme...

Why's CAF even allowing Libya to host games again?

They have been hosting matches for a while. Enyimba got knocked out last season cos they didn't play an away leg in Libya.
The question is why would you give them an excuse to get upset when you know there is a second leg to be played? Rivers management gave the Libyan fans something to rally around.

Unrelated topic, Firmino misses out of Brazil WC team. Personally I would take Firmino over Richarlison or Martinelli. Just a personal opinion.

Also Brazil is taking just 6 midfielders to the WC from a 26 man squad. Using that, I would say if we have a 23 man squad for us for example, there should be about 5 midfielders invited for us, not three as we sometimes do. Anyways am tempted to stroke controversy too and advocate for an Nwakali invitation, Ndidi, Iwobi, Aribo. Onyedika, Nwakali. Tough call to drop Onyeka for me, my reasoning is that Ndidi. Onyedika and Onyeka offer almost similar attributes and no point having 3 players with the same skillset. These are all my opinions o

Meanwhile with Aribo's coach now fired, let's see what that bodes for Ayo.
Firminho is competing with Gabriel Jesus and Richarlison for a place in the squad and not Martinelli.

U say I am talking nonsense then follow up by talking absolute nonsense. When last did u hear of Al Nasr Benghazi to know how long they have been doing something Why is Plateau not getting the same treatment in the same country

Enyimba refused to go to Libya, how is that getting dribbled? The date was announced and they made no plans for the trip. Instead they filled a complaint that was rejected.

Stats have to be seen in context of the quality you are playing against.

Segundo division is poor, Villarreal B essentially the team is number 13 in the league . This is a team that narrowly beat Wolves U21 2-1 not too long ago.

No EPL U21 team can beat a Championship team. Liverpool U21 played Wolves and beat them 5-0. Thats a big gulf.

Liverpool U21 were beaten 3-2 by Accrington Stanley in English League one. No U21 EPL side has managed to beat a league one side. The larger majority of EPL U21 sides will get flogged by league two and some non league teams. Thats the context.

In this regard stats have to be looked upon in the context of the quality of players and teams.

Would you then say because someone has extraordinary outstanding stats in the NPFL they should be drafted into the SE. ❓I very much doubt .

Players go from Academy football to top teams both in the championship and EPL U21.

Rhian Brewster from Liverpool FC to Sheffield United for £23milon. Chukwuemeka Carney from Villa to Chelsea at 18 years old to Chelsea. Harvey Elliott from Fulham to Liverpool FC.

Ponferradina FC is in the relegation zone if a team is performing the players take the accolades for performing. When a team is failing so also do the players take the blame.

Ponferradina FC has played 15 games and only been able to win 4 thats very poor. They look like candidates for relegation. And you want to say in that set up Nwakali is a baller.

Be realistic and stop jumping on the over hype bandwagon.

Valid points sir. All said and done, my opinion remains my opinion. Thank you again!!!!

As far as I am concerned, if Nwakali continues playing week in week out in the segunda where he is, I would WISH for him to be given an invite. All I can have is a wish anyway, neither you nor I decide who gets an invite.

Btw, looks like Awoniyi and Dennis should start prepping for the championship. Dennis once wiggled his way out but this time with his limited appearances am not seeing a way out for him. Also Forest are really patient with their coach, at this time, some other teams would have fired their manager now. Maybe a new manager might go a different way and it could be to Dennis' advantage or disadvantage.

Oh ok, it's now current form. Firmino's form isn't bad right now, Richarlison has been out injured, not a lot of appearances for Spurs, plays second fiddle to Kulushevski and Son, 9 appearances, 0 goals this season, 0 assists both in the EPL, Firmino 12 games, 6 goals, 3 assists in EPL. So who is more in form?
