Joan Felix to Chelsea: Top player coming into a team still lacking an actual playing template.

Chelsea fans not that you should be excited or anything because your team really gotta sort out their playing structure and tactical implementations, but I really think you are getting an Upgrade on Kai Havertz in Joao Felix who's technically superior.

Just my tots from a deeply observed angle as usual.

A piece of advice Sir. Any matter wey you no know the start, no jump headlong, update yourself first before you dive in. . We ask your oga simple academic question, him no fit answer. I fit argue tiki taka with am anyday, but on top this matter you have to show you understand the most important paper FIFA based their decision to adopt the MRI on. If you cannot understand it, you cannot command understanding of any deductions that follow. Tell him to answer our question, then we continue the conversation. .
@MainJoe pls answer the question for the sake of this guy. I challenge you.

Edit: @TheGoodJoe, seems your account is back, troublemaker.

TheGoodJoe:


Tales by moonlight.

Explain to us how you came to such a bogus and false idea of a 21 years old beating the MRI wrist scan.

benji93:
Do you want us to start from the beginning again? . I'll do my best to be clearer with my questions.

TheGoodJoe:


My thinking is, is Joao Felix the choice of Potter? Joao Felix is technically superior but I doubt he is a better tactician on the ball than Havertz. It will prove interesting to see how he fits them because Joao Felix is an ideal player for the false 9 position.

TheGoodJoe:


There is no beginning. Explain to us how such fake idea came to you.

charlesemeka85:
no laliga team will come for him. If u wan bet I Dey game

fabyom:
How the hell is this Perez guy starting ahead of Nacho?

It's quite obvious you've never had a MRI scan.

I've had three MRI scans all related to sports injuries, that by default means a discussion with radiologists in a top university teaching hospital in the UK.

I have both first hand participative understanding as well as research based understanding.

What do you have , prejudice and negative ignorance anchored on infantile rancourous noise making.

damagnificentusb:
Looks like wilf Ndidi is in the mood today.
He's been everywhere throwing takcles and intercepting the ball. Excellent first half from Ndidi

mostob:
To say I don't know anything about MRI because I didn't contribute a 400-word thesis when the argument was going on is just laughable. I don't have the time to engage in unnecessary arguments. Mind you, we still had same argument on this thread few months ago.

Moreso, I expected you to back up your claim with facts but you kept twisting and turning. TBH, I was looking forward to learn something new too because the pot of knowledge is wider.

The.goodjoe gave Ndidi's case as an example. If Ndidi could failed the MRI at such age, how then could a 21-year old pass MRI? Genetics? Environment? Feeding?

Mind you, I'm not disputing your claim. I just want you to elaborate more.

Bless you bro.

benji93:
Sure, you see this is a subject that has an academic component, so if you do not sequence your arguments well you will just end up going past each other. I took that path, then I realized he was answering imaginary questions. I make an argument with a premise, he makes his argument with a different premise. Such a back-and-forth is unfruitful unless going around in circles is your plan.

So since you are willing to go forward, let's go with you.
I assume you are well aware of my argument.
I opined that over half of a sample of 20/21-year-old Sub-Saharan African players will pass the MRI test. To be clear this is a deduction I made. It's not a conclusion drawn by any study, at least not directly.

To be able to properly discuss this topic and make deductions we have to go back to the most important study that led to FIFA's decision to adopt the MRI.

Is this a fair direction to take?

mostob:
Now, I get you. Your opinion stems from deductive reasoning.
There is no need for further back-and-forth then. And to be honest with you, your stance is thought-provoking.

benji93:
Interesting, I have not even made my point. . Are you sure you already know how I was going to get to 20/21 yrs?

mostob:
That's why I said your stance is thought-provoking. If Ndidi and Mu'azam could failed the test as 16-year olds, I'm still wondering how a 20/21 - year old will scale through.

Danielnino00:


Ayoze Perez ..lol..

Rodgers doesn't rate Nacho..
I don't think Nacho cares anyway...

benji93:
The problem is you are assuming Ndidi and Muazam were actually 16-year-olds because they claimed it. They claimed they were 16, and FIFA was not sure they were telling the truth so they use the MRI. Our players have a history of lying about their ages, so for the recent generations, the assumption is they are likely lying, hence the use of the MRI to screen out the old papas 22+ claiming 16. The question is what is the maximum actual age for which a player can claim 16 across the world? Does it differ from one place to another? And if possible by how much? So do you want me to continue with my point?

I really don't know anybody in English football who does, just a few people here, that's all.

komekn:


You are waisting your time.

These guys want to call the moon blue when it's clearly bright white.

Habit is the beginning of character and character ingrained on a national scale becomes culture.

Age cheating is an intrinsic part of our national character. At every level of society we have age cheating in Nigeria and Africa in general.

Everybody knows that player valuation is intrinsically linked with age. Every football academy I have been to in Nigeria. The question asked is not how old the players are But how old do you want them to be ❓

We do not have automatic birth data capture and as such you rely on the integrity of individuals. Sworn declaration of age. Nobodys age in Nigeria can be officially verified by a government institution.

So for instance just add a mere 3 years to V.O. age and a big chunk of his transfer value will be gone.

So you want to rely on individual integrity for age verification, in country where there is None. TheGoodJoe has called me a LIAR dont think he knows what the word means. He is knows the truth but denies it .
