According to "https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chisom_Chikatara" Chisom Chikatara became the 3rd highest goal scorer in the 2015 Nigeria Premier league with 2 goals behind the top scorer. That means technically he didn't score less than 20 goals..... [size=14pt] ‘ Yes it’s 24 ,’… Chikatara sets 2016 NPFL season’s goal target [/size] ![]() Enyimba FC striker, Mfon Udoh broke the record of most goals scored in a single season in the League in 2014 and supplanting that achievement is the pursuit of Abia warriors forward, Chisom Chikatara as the new NPFL season gets into full gear.Udoh scored 23 goals to earn the goal-king crown , and though he has only opened his account with a goal this season, 21-year-old Chikatara told footballlive.ng that chasing and surpassing the record of his City rival is his prime target. Though he admits it could turn out to be a tough task, the CHAN 2016 revelation maintains he has his sights set on target, ‘which is just a target after all.’ http://footballlive.ng/footballnews/npl-clubs/yes-its-24-chikatara-sets-2016-npfl-seasons-goal-target/ 1 Like 1 Share |

enomakos: You are correct. Owngoalnigeria.com exclusively gathered that the duo of Godwin Obaje and Sincere Seth who have both been doing well in camp are set to join the U-23s ahead of their friendly game against Brazil on the 24th of March. 19 year old Obaje has been scoring regularly in training and test games but his chances of making the team are slim due to the avalanche of options available to the coaches in attack. http://owngoalnigeria.com/2016/03/13/exclusive-siasia-considers-dropping-godwin-obaje-and-sincere-seth-to-u-23s/ 2 Likes |

TheGoodJoe: How do you know when a player is ready or not? At least, you have seen the YouTube. Now, tell me the difference between Solanke and Iheanacho from what you saw? Have you confirmed he played everywhere in the front line? ![]() Did you see the extra effort he did before he scored his goals unlike Iheanacho who received tailored passes from the pass masters to score easy goals. |

forgiveness: Where in the he'll did you see me cast aspersions on Solanke? You just write anyhow based on sentiments. I am writing of Iwobi turning down England for Nigeria and you are writing Solanke? |
Re: All The News About The Olympic Eagles (U-23) HERE! by TheGoodJoe(m): 12:43pm On Apr 05, 2016 |
forgiveness: Your bells just ring when you hear Solanke. Someone wrote that Solanke is ready to choose Nigeria over England. My reply was if he is ready, let us give him a call up. Your reply is how do you know if he is ready. I do not understand you again. We can not know. If reports says he is ready, give him a call up. What else should I say? As for Iheanacho Vs Solanke, you are just joking. Solanke is not as rated as you make him. If he was as good as you make him, Guus Hiddink would pick him over Traore and would not buy Pato. He might be a bright prospect but for now, he is not as good as Iheanacho that Man City allowed the likes of Dzeko and Jovetic leave for. 1 Like |

forgiveness: How can you watch that clip and tag Solanke prolific. If he wants to make it in the big league, he has to do better. He actually scored two penalties. That is in open play, in 17 games, he has 5 goals in the Eredivisie. He is not as prolific as you make him. Look at Chelsea, we have youngsters like Zouma, Rahman, Kennedy, Traore, Loftus-Cheek. You can say Solanke did not make because he is very young but to say he is better than Iheanacho, Man City's most lethal shot-taker, is blasphemy. Also, strikers drift to the wings but they have their primary role. Solanke plays as a point man/Striker in every game he plays for Vitesse. He does not have the stats to force Coach Siasia to drop his attacking plans for him. I hope he improves and pulls better stats. 1 Like |

terzurum5: Chikatara is very good but only in the NPFL. ![]() Remember, Ahmed Musa once broke the record of the highest goals scored in the NPFL but when he got to Play in the Eredivisie, he struggled to score 10 goals in 2 seasons. Bros, scoring goals in the Eredivisie or Europe no be beans and yam. Below is the screenshot of Ahmed Musa's goals record in Europe.

forgiveness: Playing a striker off position can reduce the goal rate of a striker drastically. That is why I asked of Solanke played on the wings but he did not. Musa hardly plays as a point man, so you can not expect the same goal scoring stats as in the NPFL. Look at Lukaku at Chelsea. He hardly scored because he played on the wings. At Everton, he plays upfront as a hitman and he is a totally different player. One of the EPL best. 1 Like |

forgiveness: Those are two different unrelated issues. You can see the mix up from you. One, was about if Solanke is ready to choose Nigeria and the other is if he is good enough to play for the Olympics team. If he is ready to choose Nigeria over England with no regrets, then I say we do our best to make him part of the team and give him a chance to contribute to the growth of Nigerian football. He is a fantastic talent but I do not think he is ready for the Olympics team. If he wants to choose Nigeria, let us get him. If we get him, I do not think he is good enough for the Olympics team and if called I expect him to battle for the U20 spot. |

TheGoodJoe: Who was the coach when Solanke was sent on loan? Comparing Solanke and Iheanacho is normal because they played in the same English youth club grade. So, it is normal and there is nothing abnormal about it. Chelsea loaned players are all better than Man city players except Aguero. The rest no bi Chelsea standard. Even the regetted ex- Chelsea player turned Super star in Man City can testify to that. ![]() So, please don't go there. Thanks |

forgiveness: First get my point. I was never against his invitation. What I was against was the slogan of he being the best natural midfielder in the team - a team he has never featured in. At that point in time Michael Babatunde and even Rabiu Ibrahim were ahead of him. Not to even mention Mikel Obi, Nosa Igiebor and Ogenyi Onazi. Ramon just had a fairly good 6months of consistent club football going into the world cup. Forget that story of say "he was played out of position". Do you know how many positions I have seem 'Karo Etebo play of which he did creditably well. |

Re: All The News About The Olympic Eagles (U-23) HERE! by forgiveness: 3:06pm On Apr 05, 2016 |
Icon4s: How many league games did Michael Babatunde play prior to the world cup and what wing did play in his club prior to the world cup? Which club(league) did Rabiu Ibrahim play for prior to the world cup and which wing did he play prior to the world? How many matches did Rabiu Ibrahim play prior to the World Cup? Do you know Ramon Azeez played almost the same numbers of league matches Onazi played that season? I agree Mikel Obi and Nosa igiebor(because he won the Israeli league) were ahead but the rest mbanu. Nevertheless, Ramon Azeez na Ramon Azeez. He plays as a CMF and DMF. Period! Ok na! We will try Iheanacho at LB to access his talent. ![]() And pls, don't forget to answer the questions below too. ![]() Can you define "development" with technical facts? Which position is Iheanacho playing for his club that makes him stand better chance of being invited to the Super Eagles? Do you mean Sadiq Umar that is playing at the level of Kelechi Iheanacho can not contend at the Olympics level because of your.... criteria? ![]() |

TheGoodJoe: You mean in the big league where Van Persie, Suarez etc came, saw and conquered from the Eredivisie? ![]() How many penalties did Iheanacho score? ![]() Atleast, you saw how he scored with his skills without needing any tailored passes that made Iheanacho to score easy goals. Abi i lie? If Solanke dey for Man City, i am sure he must have scored 15 goals and even benched ... you know nau. ![]() The primary goal of an attacker is to score. Chikena! How did you know he played as a point man in every game he played for Vitesse? Did you watch any of the matches? |
Re: All The News About The Olympic Eagles (U-23) HERE! by TheGoodJoe(m): 5:06pm On Apr 05, 2016 |
forgiveness: I do not know how you can not understand something basic as the Eredivisie is easier than the Premier League. I know Tommasson, Nisterooy, Ibrahimovic, Suarez, Kluivert, Kanu, Huntelaar etc came from the Eredivisie. It doesn't make it easier. Look at Graziano Pelle at Southampton. In Feyenoord, he scored 27 goals in his first season and in his second season, he scored 23 goals. At Southampton, he scored 12 goals in his first season and in his second season, he has scored 9 so far. The Eredivisie is easier and you know it. Anyone who knows a bit about Football knows this. 1 Like |

forgiveness: Stop spreading your fake tales about Iheanacho playing in the same youth grade as Solanke. Iheanacho first had work permit issue and then injuries kept him out for long. The question is if John Guidetti could score 20 goals in 23 games in the Eredivisie and we did not make so much noise about him, why are we not having peace with Solanke's seven goals in Seventeen starts. 1 Like |
