Taiwo, imoh Ezekiel
Taye Taiwo was an established senior player in the team now na ego issues cause im own, he obviously played in the team for a good number of years. Imoh Ezekiel, Haruna were definitely wrongly overlooked. But my point is, over a long period, how many have we come up with? One person wey im talent no reach come dey complain about godfather.

Yes you are right,starting early is the answer....a neighborhood friend Tolagbe Alanamu was in secondary school and got invitation to U17 camp of Japan 93 but was dropped for equally secondary school boy Celestine Babayaro....Tolagbe started very early cos his Dad was Team manager with then Kwara bomber.All we need is introducing our kids early to the game but I realized only in football we are having issues with age,sports like track and fields and basketball always catching them young.

**Imagine that South Sudan goalkeeper is Under 20.
OMG,
I no dey follow drag age matter but that South Sudan own too much,the guy is even too old to play for super eagles

As a footballer nwakali ought to be at his peak at the ripe age of 24 (will be 25 this year) and if he aren’t playing top flight football at his best and most productive season as a pro in europe then he is not good as hyped here


Talent no dey hide and if he is as good as painted here by you and your cohorts scouts from bigger leagues and clubs in europe won’t hesitate to snap him up from the lower rugs of Spanish football

I doubt if he’s buyout clause even reach 500k euros so price no go be issue. Bigger club reps can pay that amount from their wallet no need of going to the bank 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

If gent can scout and sign Gift Orban from Norway 2nd tier then I see no reach no scout haven’t fished out nor recommend nwakali from laliga 2 atleast to clubs from France,Germany,Holland or even Belgian top flight

Now,I want to ask u an important question.

In your area walk of life,
would u consider yourself as the best,or as one of the best?

Say,you r a carpenter, would u beat ur chest n say u r d best carpenter in town.
If u r a brick layer,can u say u among d best bricks layers in ur area.

I think osimhen ,chukwueze,iheanacho,ndidi,success etc that made it from our national youth teams to top leagues in europe are all Europeans

Mk una continue dey dwell own pity,emotions and sentiment instead of facing fact

I don’t mention nwakali without any provocation by seeing stats or post trying to make me believe that he is the best midfielder we can boast of in europe and deserves a place in the super eagles by exaggerating his talent and skill set

You better channel your advise to thegoodjoe and others not me

Don't mind them jare

They want to play the race card

Can you imagine the excuses? Because Nwakali is not South american/European? Which kain yrain of thought be that?

Didn't Isaacs success have an opportunity with Watford? Did he not squander it on women and prostitutes?

Did iheanacho's continued inconsistency not glue his ass to the bench? Abi na village curse hold him leg?

I don't understand why we are supporting mediocrity.

Is kudus South American? Osimhen nko?

What about amguissa? Mane? Salah?

Kalidou koilibaly must be Brazilian then

Zaidu Sanusi that's a starter for Porto must be Maradona's cousin from Argentina

Oh I forgot that Vincent Aboubakar is Danish

And while we are at it. Onana is from Germany and grew up near neuer. That's why he is starting for his club.

Nonsense.

Actually they offered him out for €80k across the whole of the Segunda division but nobody took the up that loan option.

I wonder why 🤔

Then in desperation Huesca tried to end his contract prematurely and illegally. But as soon as they could they ended it .

U will only b able to mention just handful who made it to d top,I can mention hundreds of talents who never did.

Every year or two,many countries produce many talented players to represent them,why is it that not many of them end up in top clubs n leagues.

The English teams that won both d u-17 and u-20 world cup,y is it that not all of them r playing in top clubs.
The Osimhen set, apart from Osimhen and Chukwueze,where r d rest of them.

Just because u think u support Excellency n others support midiocrity will not make us think u posseses such an excellent mind.

Don't worry about Kelechi Nwakali. These guys have hearts made of steel. You think it is easy for Iheanacho to get treated poorly and pick himself up to perform over and over again.


So, some guys on a forum ranting negatively about them will actually not shake them. These are guys who had a plan as kids and worked hard to achieve it. They suffered repeated disappointments but keep pushing.

Look at Chidera Ejuke and the multiple setbacks he has had but he is still pushing.

So, don't worry about the negativity. These guys will still pick themselves and keep moving.

Look at Sadiq Umar for instance, with all the setbacks, he picked himself up and keep pushing.

So allow them run players down with their mouths. It won't stop the players from pushing on.

Last thing Kelechi Nwakali needs to do is think of money. He made loads of it in the past. He made a lot for five years. He can sacrifice some money to write his name in gold.

What Kelechi Nwakali needs to keep in his mind is that the talent is there and needs to push to perform at a top level no matter where he is. If he keeps doing that, his time will come. It might take sometime but a big break will come.

He should remember he is a brilliant talent and what he needs to do is to polish himself to shine.

He is already doing a lot of things right. Took a pay cut. A massive pay cut. Chose a country that will appreciate his kind of talent. In a low league where he is getting game time. In his last game, he raised the bar to a very high level. Meaning, his work rate improved and he nailed some impressive stats.

Now he needs to maintain that work rate and keep ticking the right boxes in his stats. With time things will fall into place.

This Ethan Nwaneri is not a dictator/conductor. You are just wasting time attacking Kelechi Nwakali, then end up exposing that you don't even understand the role of a midfield conductor.

Falling down in life is not the end of a man and no matter how much you try to paint a player bad, he can still pick himself up.

Your negativity against Osimhen, Iheanacho, Sadiq and others did not stop them from growing.

Your post of Ethan Nwaneri goes into the list of gaffes of yours.

Finito.

You should have known by now the man Komekn. I am not trying to belittle anyone, Komekn knows very little about the tactics of football, This is very true. There was a time he called Ademola Lookman a traditional winger. It may be that he has heard about the traditional winger role, and then decided to mix up Ademola Lookman with the traditional winger role. This and many more made me realise the man that Komekn is.

Komekn should do more of learning than talking.

It is glaring you are emotionally invested in Nwakali. I respect your faith in him and hope he catches the fire he once had. Talent is not enough. Respect.🙏
