Ahead of OGC Nice's Ligue 1 fixture later today vs 2nd placed RC Lens away from home, Terem Moffi won't feature.

Expect him to debut in Nice's next game vs Olympique Marseille, the side Moffi turned down. What a game that will be. 🤣😂

Arguably so. He is Genk's 2nd highest scorer in their history. And had a title and all the highest individual awards in Belgium to show for it.

The man above him, Jelle Vossen had 105 goals in 248 games.
Onuachu bagged 85 goals in 134 games.

Vossen won more trophies with Genk though before he left for Brugge.



Ppogbae:


Is it safe to say he's Genk's greatest striker in history?

Please who knows the whereabouts of that Nigerian football joggler,Habeeb ( can't remember his surname) who was said to be contracted at Leicester City?.
A RCCG member .

I just finished watching clips of 9ja whizkid juggler,Chinomso Eche.

Why do jugglers find it difficult becoming professional footballers?.

Then Chelsea should have been clear from the onset that they didnt want him to leave. PSG were not happy and Ziyech himself was disappointed at the missed opportunity after his hopes got raised. He was in Paris already according to reports.


TheGoodJoe:


Chelsea did not want him to go. Probably Potter wants Ziyech sticking around in case there is need for a contingency plan.

Valentine Ozornwafor back to Belgium with Charleroi

The Left-footed CB hardly got games at Sochaux despite starting the first 2 games of the 22/23 season with them.

I used to think it was down to injuries initially but last week, I got in touch with Valentine Ozornwafor's Elder Brother to ask the exact reasons for Valentine's absence from Sochaux's matchday squads.

It was revealed to me that Valentine was not injured but very fit and was only being ignored by the coaching crew at Sochaux for reasons best known to them.

In other words, they just didn't fancy picking Valentine any longer. A very frustrating situation to be in.

I recall Taiwo Awoniyi related same experience when he was at Mainz in Germany.

I told the brother to please communicate seriously to Valentine to work his way out of there before or by deadline day of the winter transfer window and viola... just yesterday, Valentine secured a return to Charleroi.

I am happy for him and I hope he can begin playing again.

The Super Eagles are short on genuine LCB talents. This is why I reached out and I hope Valentine can get back to on-field action again.



I hope he gets more game time at Charleroi. I still don't understand why he was sidelined at Sochaux. I thought he was injured but further searches showed he was not. I really wish to see him in the SE fold very soon.

Football is now more direct. Juggling is a minor part of what make a good player.

Looks like Enzo Fernández will dorn the Jersey #5 for Chelsea. Jorginho's former number. Quite Iconic in the light of what Jorginho achieved at Stamford Bridge and especially because he is Jorginho's direct natural replacement in the #6 role.



He wouldn't be able to wear that shirt in UCL since Jorginho registered that number already.

Actually Sean Dyche is a racist Bigot and would blatantly push black player out.

Vieira is picking the best players and if they happened to be black it is coincidental.

I don't think it is coincidental. Viera knows what he is doing. He has 16 black players out of 25 players. I don't know what is going on in his mind but the British media might soon come for him. They may start a narrative like "look at what Dyche did in the past and see what Viera is doing now". I hope it won't happen sha.

Maradona was a ball juggler. At a tender age he used to juggle the ball at football events and was using it to get money.

I love Diego!

Sean Dyche has been criticized for his preferences for white players, but Patrick Viera flipping the script is considered wisdom? 🤔🤔

I don't know about that.

There's a difference between signing from a particular demographic and being pure racist.

Wolves currently sign only Portuguese.

Each of those black players know that success for a black manager is a success for their future.

Vieira's success means more doors for black managers in future. So they'd die for him.

Same argument could be made for Dyche as well. His preferences could appear to be coincidental.

You dey talk long story. What is Nwakali’s position today? One of the top midfielders in the league. If he were a striker and was one of the top goal scorers regardless of the team he plays he won’t be considered a failure.

As a midfielder, he has the stats that can guarantee he won’t go down with his team even if they were relegated.

Abeg refresh my memory on the players you were clamoring for na

komekn:


You deh fall my hand.

Nwakali Started at Arsenal when Saka, Smith Nketiah were 12/13/14 couldn't do ANYTHING.

They sent him to Eerste Division 2nd tier Dutch league Maastricht they promoted him to Venlo in the Eredivise where he played 380 minutes and 9 games they sent him back to Eerste division with Maastricht, too poor and not good enough.

He was without club as nobody wanted him in the lowly second tier of Dutch football Eerste.

As a consequence he was promoted to Porto B, in the lowly Ligaporto. after a few games he was a bench warmer. Nobody wanted him, they returned him to sender

The sender Arsenal were finally able to offload the bad market and Huesca the fall guy Moogo collect him.

Huesca immediately loaned him to a lower club in the Segundo division Alcarcon brought him back and valued him so much he was the the second to the last lowest paid player in Huesca.

Huesca wanted to offload him but nobody interested they then in desperation terminated his contract prematurely before expiry but failed. But on the day of expiry they kicked him out.

He now goes to Ponferradina that is essentially bankrupt and in the bottom of the lowly Segundo division facing relegation.

Oniovo BEECO tell me how that is PROGRESSION ❓❓

Or you want to turn darkness to light

Also I love his physique, can’t be bullied off the ball easily

Even if he doesn’t mk it to inter’s first team he has all it takes to play for any other club in a top league in europe
See how you're famzing him because Inter Milan signed him. Are you not the same guy who don't believe we had talents at home? All our talents are foreign born according to your wrapped thinking.

If someone had brought up a kid so good in Ogun state, you would have laughed yourself silly and made one of those drop dead comments you make about home-grown footballers.

Balogun is made for the top. The kid will grow to become one of the most deadly strikers in the game. Doing this in his first season as a professional is pure madness. Earlier in the seasons he wasn't getting much attention, I dropped this comment about him.
