charlesemeka85: Yessoo, Adriano had pace, skill and a powerful shot. He just couldnāt keep fit and his fatherās passing mentally hurt him badly. |

oloriooko: This is the same for many players. The NT shirt is very heavy. Only a few players do better for their country vs their club. Off top of my head, James Rodriguez is one of those players. 1 Like |

mrwilliams9:bros they are not similar in any way Adriano was too complete. In his prime he was the closest thing to R9. Bobo was unplayable with shooting power that can be compared to that of few No disrespect to Boniface but no try compare him to Adriano unless u no watch the Brazilian during his prime |

I remember posting few weeks ago, Boniface is the Nigerian striker with the highest ceiling! The international break did him a lot of good. Boni is back to his f.. best! What a player!! 4 Likes 3 Shares |

charlesemeka85: Disagree. Both had great size and skill on the ball. If Boniface gets more clinical, theyāll be more similar. |

charlesemeka85: I am not saying Boniface is of Adrianoās level at his prime. No. Iām saying Boniface has many of the same characteristics of Adriano and if he, Boniface keeps developing, heāll be similar to a prime Adriano. |

mrwilliams9:oga they re not similar in any way I doubt you watch Adriano during his Inter days bobo was something else |
Re: "The Super Eagles Thread: The Road To AFCON 2025 And 2026 World Cup by mrwilliams9(m): 4:23pm On Sep 14 |
Marjoribanks: Very correct. He has more tools in his game than our other strikers. Only thing is his fitness and finishing. He got 2 goals today off 7 shots but a more clinical striker probably has a hat-trick if not 4 goals with some of the chances he had |

mrwilliams9:talk am reach next week I no gree Boniface is more like a Zirkzee kinda player ie CFs that are skillful, can play any where upfront as well as drop deep to create opportunities for his team mates He isnāt forceful and bullish like Adriano. Adriano was a menace to defenders during his prime Also the Brazilian had more pace |

Victor Boni-BRACE cooking defenders for fun in the Bundesliga. A Striker that loves to bamboozle defences like Ronaldo De Lima and add flourish to his finish. A highly Technically gifted beast.

Adriano! one of footballs great what ifs. You're spot on when you say he was very similar to R9. Pity depression took its toll on a very promising career. I think Boniface is too unique in his skill set to pigeonhole that he is a this or that. If Boni had Osimhen mad focus and ginger it would have been all over for the football world. charlesemeka85: 3 Likes |

If you look at the work he put in getting those shots on target, then I would probably give him a pass. Those two goals he scored can only be scored by few strikers in today's football. The run, the cut, the shots! Wow! What a player!! mrwilliams9: 3 Likes |

Truth is when Boniface settles into the GWG, he would absolutely lift even further the dynamics of our attack. He just needs to add the ability to use his immense physicality when need be to really utterly dominate defences (like Osimhen does) and not depend on his highly technical side alone. Have it on lock and we have the most unstoppable Striker on the planet. Even more than Haaland, I dare say but only IF... 7 Likes 3 Shares |

chrisooblog:Boniface may be fancier when compared to the Brazilian but the Adriano na confirm one man squad In his prime no defender fit stop him, then self when we had rugged CBs in serie A and European top leagues Adriano no need near post ooo, once the ball set well for his favourite foot him don hammer and na straight inside post. Also him get strength and stamina die the reason I called him a tank in my previous posts |

His shot power was so world renowned that even in video games, once you use Inter with Adriano, you are sure of a wonder goal. His shot power and accuracy was insane. Leite Adriano was the ballon dor striker that never won a balloon dor and never got to fulfill all his potentials due to depression. Depression na bastard. charlesemeka85: 5 Likes |
