I agree Olofinjana is an intelligent dude and may possess exemptional football IQ but his displays were average at best. Yusuf Ayinla and Kaita in my opinion were slightly better. Mikel who was just starting out himself had to carry a very lackluster midfield almost entirely on his own before the likes of Etebo, Onazi arrived on the scene.

Obodo would have been a great asset to the SE but injuries were a MF! Same thing that affected Joel Obi.

Seyi and Sani na same same! He cost us 2004 AFCON with his brawn before brain approach against Tunisia! No need for that tackle at all!

Hatayspor coach confirms Fisayo Dele-Bahiru is unlikely to stay at the club next season. 🔚

“Fisayo [Dele-Bashiru] is a special player. There are many offers for him, including that of Lazio Rome.” ✨

( @radyospor )

Sharp!!! U get any video compilations of him?

It hurts that injuries have really messed up the career of his elder bro who is even more talented.

90-88 5.6s to go! Wow

At least we still enjoy Mikel small and he led us to an AFCON trophy!

Na Obasi and Akpam pain me pass! I am happy we have an Akpam reincarnate in Benjamin Franklin!

You know ball bro. Apam really pain me same as Obasi. I have high hopes on BenFrancis

TheGoodJoe:


Actually, Mikel was built and made for the tiki Taka game. There was a season, I think under Ancelotti where Mikel made more passes in total than Paul Scholes and Xabi Alonso. He was built for the passing game. By the way, Siasia plays expansive passing game.

Finito.

In football, players must pass the ball. But tiki taka made football all about passing. That's why I hate it. Because all the other elements of the game have been left to die.

Apam was cut short by injury

Mujtahida:

There was this Nigerian player I loved to pieces. Obodo!!! I was heartbroken with what injuries did to his career. Dude and Muntari in the midfield of Udinese as young ballers was so sweet.

Na Haruna lukman pain me pass…very astute and intelligent but highly indisciplined

Obodo at some point was messing up jare …trying to copy okochas style

Obodo get football IQ forget! neat short passes with correct long balls. Remember how him, Mikel and Oruma were running things for our midfield in the group stages of the 2006 AFCON wonder why he was dropped from the midfield in the knockout stages.

How come we ignored this?

Lukman was affected by poor football foundation. Didn't imbibe enough of the basics at the developmental level and was damn too indisciplined imagine chewing gum during the national anthem smh.

probably because of the league. Atleast this one has been posted this morning, I have not seen anything about Peter olayinka despite him winning the double in Serbia. Make God do am for our players make Dem dey play for better leagues

Actually, ball retention in tight spaces is a big part of TIKI TAKA and you can't achieve that without excellent dribbling skills.

You can see the Xavi Hernandez clip below. He is one of the top players that understood Tiki Taka inside out. Watch the level of his skill and retention ability.

Dele Bashiru & Joe Aribo
Are they good enough
Aribo dropped form a year or two ago
I have never watched Dele Bashiru play

Ejuke & Emmanuel Dennis need to up their game next season else they could miss out on Afcon 2025 or fifa World Cup 2026

Lol. Emmanuel Dennis conversation in 2024? 😂😂😂

Enzo Maresca to Chelsea.


Thegoodjoe abeg tell Amunike to apply for that Leceister job. He is more than qualified

Meliforme:
We don't really have a forward, built for the game of ball possession like Chidera Ejuke.

I hope he is in Finidi's plans.

Built for ball possession 🧐

Ejuke is a forward player you implying he is outstanding quality.

How many games did he play this season, l have to presume he is first choice that means barring injuries he should play at least 80% of games in his league.

That being the case how many goals and assists in the Belgium league did he get to make him outstanding.

Lobi Stars vs Akwa United

Top class performance by Sulaiman Sani. There are only 5 games left this season, if he comes to ur area make sure to go check him out. The boy is box office.

English born and Nigeria eligible forward Dapo Afolayan gained promotion to German Bundesliga with St Pauli

Heard he is interested in playing for us so he should be one to look out for next season in German top tier

Dapo’s rise from non league football to the Bundesliga

hatakekakashi:

The team as a whole has regressed badly, it's almost as if Spaletti overachieved last season. If you think it's Osimhen's fault, check Kvaraskhelia stats too or any other player in the team.

Also, Osimhen has been battling injuries, he didn't start yesterday.

Bro...there's a reason I said all I said

I have nothing against oskmhen as a person. I wanted to call out the hypocrisy being exhibited

What's the name of that Nigerian guy Getafe signed hyped to be just as good if not better than Rodri?

Please stop 🛑 being infantile and crying 😭 like child who someone took their milk 🍼.

Which player did I call 🤙🏿 waste man it's actually singular not plural ❓

Next question ❓ was it justified and if you can not 🚫 respond with specifics.

Please 🥺 be silent 😶

It depends who is the judge, whether is just or right to call someone a waste man?
Someone whose mind is corrupted with hate will surely justify it,
But someone whose mind is anointed with words and love of God will judge differently.

Wisdom is profitable to direct.

The boy is good, finest dribbler in the league at the moment.

Overhyped striker finished 3rd on the log of top goal scorers despite missing loads of games due to AFCON, injury and poor team form but he underachieved. Currently Nigeria's highest league goal scorer in the top 5 European top leagues but but he's overhyped

Good night everyone

Chrostian Obodo was spectacular on the ball. So sleek and beautiful deft touches.

But one player that suffered from Okocha's dominance was James Obiora. I personally rate Obiora above Oruma and Obodo

Bayelsa born Nigeria forward Philip Otele finished as the top scorer in Romania’s top flight with 18 goals and 8 assist

Likely to move to a bigger league this summer

Serie A giants and former champions napoli reported to be interested in him with plans to loan him out for a season to a mid table serie A club.

Epl clubs Brentford and Brighton rumored to be interested too
