TheSuperNerd:
Fantastic observation.... Looollll

Sir Mickael2 did the same thing.....

Sir Joebie is now making lightening strike twice in the same thread.... Looollll

Mikel..... Wetin u do these people naa?? Looolll

Joebie:
Christian Chukwu..lol
I don't need to collate facts.. a world class player stands out without sentiments.. i've never like Messi... but i've always been a realist. in my opinion he is better than Ronaldo, but everytime I want Ronaldo to win the best player.. so sentiments no dey my dictionary my brother.. world class players stands out.. i dont see anything scintillating in Mikel's game..

AIG07:
Mikel is an overrated Nigerian player-Joebie, 2017.

What can I say ooo?
Abeg Nothing.
*Make I just laugh small*

I'm not here for an arguement but to make a proposal to coach Rohr n his technical crew to drop John Obi Mikel from our match day squad against the Indomitable Lions of Cameroun come august as some fans have been displeased with his performance since all these yrs point that he has not been justifying his inclusion in the NT.
These fans believes that Mikel stay in the NT is long overdue and has contributed little to non to the nations football in recent yrs...blablabla

i have decided not to argue wit any Nigerian on Mikel's contribution to the round leather game both locally n internationally.

Most of these ppl claim to have been following the game since 1100 AD but fail to identify/recognize players who carry the team on their shoulders. The only ones they notice/see are the ones busy showboating, n probably scoring and the funniest part of it all is that the ones who rarely scores but decide to stay back n bring stability to the team are always culprit of bashing n abuse...

This set of ppl are quick to mention Messi n Ronaldo(I'm not taking away anything from them) as yardstick to measure worldclass performance but they've failed to ask themselves why these same players have failed to replicate their clubs achievements in their respective national teams.

Football is Team game and until we learn to appreciate other players performances we will not come to understand the beauty of it.

Mikel might not be banging in goals for the national team but what he brings(vision, creativity, leadership etc) to the table is second to non and you like it or not he is already a football legend and a national hero.

No member of this Cameroon team can make it to the nigerian first 11

Only patriotism can do this!

Mikel is OVERATED. Thrived in that holding midfielder role for Chelsea.. forget Holland 2005

Icon4s:


So you think the Cameroonian team will surely improve after this AFCON huh-huh?

Certitude:

We are going to beat Cameroon home and away as far as three or four of our players keep churning world class performance. Moses, Iwobi, Mikel and Balogun. Other just need to be average. I no even talk Etebor and Ndidi o. Musa may not get to start but you know what he can to to tired legs. Iheanacho... though no game time but remember his passes and the boy no be friend with net.
These players I mentioned play two or more position o.
Baba, I dey underrate Cameroon. I am just being realistic; not bias. I,m a fan and not a player.
sir AIG, let them drop Mikel after both legs against Cameroon, abeg.
Mr JOBBIE, Welcome, that is if you are no alternate. Abeg no let Safarigirl catch you oo. e no go sweet you. SUPERNERD AND sir THEGOODJOE are nice ooo.

joseph1013:


You don't rate Christian "Chairman" Chukwu? Why?

Good to see you on this thread. Welcome to the house!

Onazi (left) congratulates Mikel for his goal vs Algeria

jieta:
he maybe right according to solace chukwu(goal editor) but is subject to debate.

Tottenham have been linked with a summer move for a teenager doing the business in League Two. Bright Osayi-Samuel is reportedly a target
for Spurs and a number of clubs.

Bright Osayi-Samuel has made a big impression in League Two this year

joseph1013:


How is he right? No player in this Cameroonian team we just watched win the AFCON will make the Super Eagles first team? Please debate it.

jieta:
that is why i say is debatable, if you check goal.com you will see the article written by solace chukwu not my idea sir.

Run through both teams, and aside the centre-backs and probably Fabrice Ondoa, you would do well to find any member of the Indomitable Lions’ starting 11 who would get into the Super Eagles'.

komekn:
A lot of talk of young inexperienced and in many instances unproven at National competitive level players.

Why is nobody talking about Sone Aluko Fulham fc, yes he is 27, but he is real quality.

joseph1013:
Okay, I just saw this from an article he wrote:



He said two players would get into our team. He placed Ondoa on may be. He didn't say none of them will get into our team.

Is this the article you were referring to?

Icon79:


To be quite honest with you, I think Cameroun greatly overachieved at this AFCON. However, I agree with Joebie that it's better (safer?) to assume that they would improve that way we'll leave nothing to chance.

All in all, I will expect to see the same Cameroun that struggled against Zambia in the WC qualifiers.

O pari

goldfish80:

According to the article, the writer said apart from Ondoa and the two centre backs, you will do well to find any other player who can get into the Super Eagles squad.
Personally, I will add Benjamin Moukandjo and Bassogog to those who can make our squad.

joseph1013:


Please...why do people make very good points, yet destroy it with absurd analogies and examples? Ronaldo and Messi do not replicate club achievements in their national teams? Really? Were you alive in 2016?

joseph1013:


But you said he may be right. Why did you say that?

Did Solace Chukwu say not one of them will make our team? I can't find the article

komekn:


Okocha was obsessed with okocha and did a lot of very exciting show boating that looked good but didn't always help the team.

Oruma may not have been as skilful but he played a an unselfish team game with end product. I remember him in the Ghana v Nigeria Afcon he was outstanding. Unfortunately JJay didn't like the competition he represented and was not very sportsman like to him.

Icon4s:


Nothing is certain my brother.

You are right about their over-achievement and whether they will maintain that standard is what we can't tell.

Nobody is saying the Cameroonians will not or cannot improve . They are African champions and we have to respect them for that. And we really have to put everything in place to defeat them . What I am against is dwarfing Nigeria before them. I dnt agree they have more quality than our team.

TheSuperNerd:
Sir Goldfish... Are you saying Bassogog will bench Victor Moses? On the right?

And Moukandjo will bench Iwobi on the left?

jieta:
he say terku and one other player.
i don't know how to quote source i would have post it here.

Joebie:
thanks my bro!

good to see u too
