D'Law o ti lo (no pun intended) Nwaneri is being monitored like a hawk by the English FA only a serious dip in form and persistent chasing on the NFF's end could make Ethan switch. Unfortunately those two scenarios are unlikely to happen.

we better waste that energy and resources on getting Chukwuemeka and Iroegbunam

Nwaneri wonโ€™t work ๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿคฃ

15 y/o Anglo-Nigerian Ethan Nwaneri makes the bench for Arsenal in their EPL fixture vs Brentford.

Yep. You read it right! 15 Years old!!! Kid is An AM.

As usual for now, Frank Onyeka benched for Brentford.

Game on in 36mins.

You doubt it probably because you were not here when it happened or you just forgot.

mostob:
I doubt anybody mentioned Ethan Nwaneri here before his senior debut though.

TBH kid is so talented. He has a bit of Jamal Musiala in him. Driving runs, close control dribbling and those inch-perfect pass.

More on Ethan just before his debut happened.

TheSuperNerd:
Additionally, he's been impressing for the Arsenal's U18s and U21s. An attacking midfield player who has very decent goals and assists stats at U18-U21 levels.

For him to be on the senior bench at 15 in an EPL game means Arteta reckons with this lad seriously. So we watch and see how much more the lad grows.

Another Highly Interesting prospect.

Chelsea wanted a Pre Agreement with Osimhen for January 2025 that was rejected before he went to Galatasaray.

- They have been ringing Napoli wanting to do a deal in January. Willing to pay him the wages he wants 100%

But thatโ€™s Impossible. He stays at Gala for the full season.

Very funny take. But you literally judged him super just because he is a Kaizer Chiefs Player without knowing he was recently acquired by Chiefs.

Let this be a lesson for you then to be patient and not hasty with your takes.


NB: You also said to watch out when the PSL season begins to see how Ntwali performs for Chiefs and Nwabali for Chippa. Well the season has started but no agenda to run with currently, I see.

You called Nwabali's plays "yeye yeye"... you hyped Ntwali's pen saves as if Nwabali haven't been making pen stops in the same SA. And you said let us see how things go this season. Now I am reminding you and you call it gloating. Lol

Ntwali is a much bigger club now than Nwabali and is still being outshone by same Nwabali. That is the whole point of this reminder coz you made it almost look like him going to Chiefs automatically makes him better.

๐Ÿฆ Osimhen, on his injury scare.
โ€œItโ€™s not a serious injury. I felt a bit of discomfort and thought it was best to inform the coach.

โ€œI didnโ€™t want to risk affecting the teamโ€™s performanceโ€

๐Ÿฆ On the team sacrificing a 3 goal lead to settling for a draw:
โ€œAs a team, weโ€™re unhappy. We deserved all three points, but sometimes football doesnโ€™t go as planned.

โ€œIโ€™m happy with my two goals, but we need to work harder and focus on winning the next match.โ€

Nwakali is still richer than you,
more famous than you,
more loved than you.
He may as well be more educated than you if he decides to choose education,but he is a sports man.

Nwakali is better than you in life,there is nothing you can say about him that will change that.

I clearly said we mentioned him before his debut. I was certain of it and I have proved so. You are the one shifting it to "prior to Sept 18". Was he mentioned before he made his debut? Before he stepped out onto the pitch at Arteta's call? We did.

At the time we mentioned Ethan, had he made his debut? No. So I am not wrong. Read my statement again.

This is in no way something worth arguing about. Infact the first post about him came immediately the team sheet was revealed for that Brentford game.

Before he began blowing up, this thread did justice to making him visible. Myself and a couple other monikers already mentioned him before his EPL debut in 22/23 season, 2 seasons ago. We also graced the thread with his record breaking debut which lasted a few mins.

If we had moved on him then, we may have stood a chance but right now ain't no way we are bagging him especially with Bukayo Saka as the kid's mentor.


Saka wanted us for...... .....

......


Above is the statement made. Please where is prior to Sept 18 mentioned? Wasn't it clearly stated it was before his debut happened? Even if it was a minute before his debut, the point stands as valid as it was indeed before his debut.

And Ethan making the bench that day, was it a guarantee of his eventual debut? No. Capital No. We have seen youngsters make the bench all the time without coming off the bench.
In Ethan's case, We anticipated it and I rightly did justice to his info. Him eventually making his debut later that same day became a bonus.

The question is was Ethan mentioned here before he made his Arsenal first team debut? The answer is a BIG YES!!

Now rest. You are the one arguing over nothing really.

Leave this Nwakali thing. It's enough. Everybody has moved on.

When the SuperDelusional makes references to players I haven't mentioned in 5/6 years nobody says that to him.

As well as the other delusional praise choristerd of Nwakali.

Saka wanted us for a bit initially but then changed his mind when he saw he had a real chance with England. I understand Saka. And I knew instantly Saka will have a longer lasting England career than Tammy, Tomori, Solanke, EZE and co.

Now same Saka is Captain of Arsenal in Odegaard's absence and another Anglo-Nigerian like himself with high potential, Ethan Nwaneri is finally having his breakthrough season after his EPL debut 2 seasons ago, Omo, ain't no way England are losing this guy unless the hype drops.


Verdict: The NFF should have a mega active scouting and recruitment dept division focused on the dual nationals who can approach them early and see how we can commit them early before the hype comes. Those who will commit, will commit. Those who won't do so, won't do so. But understand, some of these kids also understand that playing for a Euro youth side (England U17, France U17, etc) betters their chances of being considered at their clubs as they climb up the ladder of their careers so some won't commit based on this angle alone.


Look at HYPOCRISY PERSONIFIED

Doing a shameless bigoted U turn.

Please wait for Nwakali to blow
