Spain don't want Bajcetic to choose Serbia. So they offered a juicer plan to lure him. Instead of u19 squad, he gets u21 spot.


Almighty Spain.


Anyway, playing for Liverpool already made that big difference. But highlight is what Spain is doing to get him.

Finidi George's Record as Enyimba Coach in the NPFL📶 since he took over.

🏟41 games played.
✅️16 wins.
❌️17 losses.
🤝🏽8 draws.

His Enyimba side's 2-1 loss away at Plateau Utd yesterday was his 17th league loss since he took Enyimba job.

As long as he focuses on improving their play, results with time will favor Finidi.

I thought you are intelligent enough to understand my assertions but... chai I am dissapointed. They are playing high level football in their country and culture. The environment enables your growth. Yekini played competitively in Nigeria league till over 40 years. Or is it your Europeans that plays competitive footy Mr. low self esteem British wannabe!
komekn:


I wonder what type of reasoning the people who liked your nonsensical proposition have, that has no iota of substance whatsoever.

The question is, l reiterate; Why is that some players in Europe are able to play at the highest level well over the 35 age bracket. However, African players seem to fade out once they hit 30 ❓❓❓

Examples given Thiago 38, Milner37, Young 37, Vardy 36, etc

Top level competitive football ⚽ leagues will be the top 5 in Europe. But the players I'm talking about are in the best league in the world 🌎. EPL.

And your response is to say they can play in the Local league in Africa until 50. See reasoning CHEI !!!

He should keep at it. Finidi should keep working on improving their play and with time the result will come in their favor.

Naija boys topping the scorers chats in Italy things you love to see.

To be fair Lookman wasn't showing world class form when he was with the foxes on loan. Yes he was ok but nothing that would have made you have regrets not signing him. Yes in hindsight it looks like a silly decision but in the end this move was the best thing for Ademola. Just happy it seems we hit the jackpot again with his switch because he's beginning to exhibit true classy form.


Do you think if Ademola was playing in the EPL he would have scored 10 goals at this mid way stage of the league ❓

When Ademola Lookman was playing for Leicester , December 2021, he comes on as a substitute and had immediate impact getting the winning goal and the MOTM award at the same time. His quality has never been in doubt.

He has gone to lower less competitive league and he is killing it , it should not be a SURPRISE.

It is an error to think this way as far as the issue of age is concerned. Is there a culture of age cheating in Europe? A person will even be foolish to doubt a person's age in Europe because records are kept at birth.

In Nigeria, I'd rather doubt a player's age than willy nilly believe his age. The difference is culture. Not about whether a particular player is truly this age or that age.

'One of them, a prophet of their own, said, 'Cretans are always liars, evil beasts, lazy gluttons.' - Titus 1 v 2.

That's Paul referencing what is a cultural judgment about the cretans. Does that mean all Cretans are liars? No. But it means that mendacity is a cultural norm and they have no regards for truth.

In the same vein we have a culture of age cheating. It's in all aspects of our national life. So I wonder why this self righteous angst whenever the doubters raise their voices.
It sounds more like stereotyping to me... I won't say age cheating is part of our culture,but rather it is one of the pitfalls of being a third world country. We don't have the infrastructure required to correct that. People aren't age cheating,rather they are taking advantage of the broken system . It is like America that has a culture of gun violence because the system allows them to carry guns.
But still I feel it isn't right to judge people based on the action of others in their social class....

According to some sources, it's at the talking stage. Frankfurt are talking to Genk to try sign Onuachu.

So it will go through provided agreements with both player and club are reached.

If Lookman played for a better team than Leicester in the league, he would definitely score 10 goals at this stage of the season ..
Isn't Halaand tearing the league apart despite coming from a "lower less competitive" bundesliga?
Salah and De Bryune struggled for game time at Chelsea,they went to Italy and Germany respectively and they came back to tear the EPL apart... Quality isn't always enough..the form of the team you play for also matters.

There is always room for improvement. In pursuing improvements, results come to favor the team with time. It is not just about if they are playing well. Finidi should keep his focus on improving their play.

There is be a culture of self deception here, it reflects t he r national culture.

We have two criminal geriatrics vying for the highest office in the Land.

One saying he is going to build on the shambolic ineptitude and bigotry of PMB and carry the nation forward.

The other one an almost permanent resident of Dubai with wealth acquired by scandalous corruption.

Yet many are going to vote for them.

We all know that age cheating is endemic and institutional add to that corruption is so deep into our society it's normal practice we have very little of any integrity and some of us are saying we are being biased and we hate all things Nigerian.
