After Lookman collect his APOTY.

Boniface should get a Look-in too.

All our forward line might be APOTY's

Boni need to start doing well in the national team colors to deserve a chance to win an Apoty award

Doing well only at Bayer 04 won’t win him the award

if he stays injury-free and Leverkusen wins another trophy, he will surely be a candidate no matter what he does for the national team.

Gasperini wan give gametime to others. Lookman is easily the best player at Atalanta so the coach go wan protect him treasure. A goal and an assist takes his season Stats to 3 goals and 2 assists in all comps (Serie A and UCL) across 5 games.

The form of an APOTY-in-waiting.

Reminds me of 1994 set.

Yekini - APOTY 1993.
Amuneke - APOTY 1994.
Finidi - Best RW in the world (1994-1996)
Amokachi - 3rd APOTY 1994.

Then Ikpeba and Kanu came in 1997 & 1996 and 1999 respectively.

We are seeing that Golden era of individual honors for our Nigerian lads again. We have to win something grand with this generation else it would just be a tale of nearly men.

Danish Nigerian MF, Tochi Chukwuani vs Nigerian MF, Raphael Onyedika in UCL football.

Sturm Graz vs Club Brugge. Interesting midfield battle.

the reason I said he's a candidate, btw how many African players are currently at his level? Afcon 2025 is Dec 2025 to Jan 2026 so apart from wcq nothing much on the continent next year.

Those Glass House clowns will not see this one to consolidate and take advantage of by employing better manager now.

Mikel Obi was the last Super Eagles MF to make Top 3 in 2013.

Okocha did it in 1998, 2003 and 2004. Oliseh finished 3rd behind Okocha and Hadji in 1998.

Even CB, Taribo West make top 3 in 1997 when Ikpeba won.

Enyeama, a GK made top 3 in 2014.

Aston Villa 1-0 Bayern Munich.

If you are a Villa fan, you will be sleeping in 7th heaven tonight. Damn! What a UCL night in Villa.

Jhon Duran the hero once again off the bench. How many times will he keep doing this as a super sub CF before a team picks him up and make him their main man? That's another top striker emerging strong outta Colombia.

that Duran kid is highly underrated. I love the boy so much and I foresee him exploding and moving to an European top club soon

Chelsea pushed for him last summer but Villa refused. The only player of this generation that I can slightly compare to ex Inter striker Adriano
