TheSuperNerd:

AbdulJaleel Ajagun is a very good player. I have followed him since his days at Dolphins (now Merged with Sharks to form Rivers Utd) and his U-17 days. A really good no.10. And yes it is uncommon to have an African player featuring as a no.10 in one of Europe's top 7-10 leagues.... (Iwobi have also featured a few times as Arsenal's no.10 before they switched to their Current 3-4-3).......

With That Ajagun's talents must be commended but ehmmmmm.... saying outrightly that he is better than Etebo is a faux pas. Etebo is a super versatile Player... far more super versatile than Ajagun. Etebo plays each role he is given to almost classic perfection and with remarkable Distinction... add to the fact that he is a super goalscorer too and assists-maker when played up-top....

Egbon Forgiveness... how you go understand the library thing eh? In fact, if you are interested, I will tell Yara Yara to send a driver to come get you and bring you to my main labs complex.... I am not in the library section of the thread's house today...

I like Ajagun... I like the Obuh boys... but you see.... I wouldn't wanna put him in a class of his own over Etebo.... you and I know Etebo is something else.

Ajagun is a wonderful talent. A very good player but abeg.... not better than Etebo or some players reeled out already in the AMF role of the Super Eagles.

Ajagun's versatility is also noted but Etebo trumps him in all-round versatility. #Fact.

Like I said... I no wan go deeply extensive into this matter.... Just understand that somehow out of the blues... Ajagun can be invited... he may yet get his chance... so don't give up or rule it out just yet... His time can still come.

Mujtahida:

This journalist ooo. It's not everything that should be reported naaa

Icon4s:


They have to work very hard to earn the place. Most of those players making waves in that SE team are U21 so they all fall into the same age grade.

Mujtahida:
@all Who does Etebo remind of us in terms of versatility, energy and movement?

Kelechi to West Ham is massive if it goes through #GoalGetter

OMANBALA1:

Amokachi, I suppose..

Kog45:
Pls which report from camp.Honestly sometimes i do not understand how u always based your judgment on training or drilling before a player can be chosen.

This is how you had endless arguments based on Iheanacho situation at man city,try to defend Guardiola on drilling of Nacho but d young man is wise enough to seek playing time elsewhere.

Nobody is doubting Alampasu ability as a goalkeeper but for now Akpeyi,Ezenwa are ahead.I don't know for d future Alampasu might be No1 but for now or against South Africa Akpeyi w manned d post or else injury set in,even at that Ezenwa w be called upon and this already showed in Corsica and Togo friendly.

In d absence of Ikeme,Akpeyi No1,Ezenwa 2 and Alampasu 3.This is how Rohr rate d trio irrespective of diving and jumping in d training

forgiveness:
.

Ajagun didn't only play for the U17, he also played the U20 WC twice and he was the captain in the last tournament. We saw what he did.

Can you please mention one Nigerian player in the top 5 leagues in the world playing constantly(I am regularly) in the no 10 role with facts?

Because the last time I checked, there is none.

How can you say Etebo is more versatile than Ajagun when Ajagun has never been given the chance to prove himself?


If Etebor is more versatile than Ajagun, how come his limited him to only 2-3 roles while has played in 4 roles this season?

I think I need something better than statement to convince me.

As far as his doesn't deem it to play in that ATM, I think he is the best no 10 in Europe. Same applies to others.


Now, I get the library

Humility017:


definitely you won't get my point
because we're at loggerheads on this
I read...orji words the last time..
saying next season he try step up his game..
so as to be able to make the world cup list in his country...
the young man is not even irked ..he is happy wit the progress he has made...hoping to build on it
next season.....

maidaboi:
when the players they like is not invited then they will start calling the coach names
especially 2 monikers here

Mickael2:


what I do not understand is why you will say that I mentioned that Oshimen is useless when I did not even have that in mind. I said clearly that his talent is there for all to see. Obviously I got the points you just made now

forgiveness:


Save for official use. As a grade A evidence.

Joebie:
Yes based on club performance ALONE.

Mickael2:


thank you. Now here is the question, Orji is also a lad for the future so he falls into the same category with Oshimen, why exactly was Oshimen preferred?

Mickael2:


thank you. Now here is the question, Orji is also a lad for the future so he falls into the same category with Oshimen, why exactly was Oshimen preferred?

OMANBALA1:


You just talk for talking sake. These are your wishes ,that Ajagun is better than Iwobi,Iheanacho and WORK HORSE OGHENEKARO. So,if you are made the coach you will start Ajagun ahead of any of these guys ? This is probably why another Onigbinde will never coach a Nigerian team again. Why don't you invite Azeeze,Awoniyi and Gbolahan and start them.

Humility017:

perfect question.... I think you should ask past under 17, 20, 23 and current super eagles that question....
they all should have Answers on why they keep inviting the lad....
afterall....them all can't be partial at the same time

Mickael2:


thank you. Now here is the question, Orji is also a lad for the future so he falls into the same category with Oshimen, why exactly was Oshimen preferred?

Mickael2:


you do have a point. I mean Bologna and Wolfsburg aren't too different from eachother, they both barely survived relegation but the case now is that when Bologna started fighting against relegation they called on Orji Okonkwo while Oshimen was still choping bench at Wolfsburg, if I talk now some cry babies will start talking about Iheanacho

forgiveness:


Which one be behave? I talk facts, e sim behave.

If Etebor is that good as a attacking midfielder, why is he not played in that position in his club instantaneously.

Without National team, Etebor can never smell Europe.

From NPL to Europe Ajagun has performed wonderfully well in that ATM role.

For an African to be played in that role constantly, is not beans na.

Can those players play attacking midfield, LW, RW, CMF and DMF etcetera effectively than Abdul Ajagun?

I remembered he ones played as a RB in his club.

If you know something, talk am mo we hear?

About the library thing, i am not understanding.

Chrismario:


Because he's preferred

If Orji was or is being invited, some other folks would be asking this question,,,, why was Orji preferred?

forgiveness:


Can you please pinpoint to one single expensive joke in that comment?

You should know by now that I don't make comments without facts?

TheGoodJoe:


I wonder why a simple point is difficult to grab. I said I do not have a problem if Iheanacho sits on the bench a season or two as long as he goes through the regular drills and routine of Guardiola. Iheanacho choosing to leave after last season does not in any way go against my opinion if you thought so. I made the statement beginning of the season. Haba.

BascoVanVeli:


What about Nwakali who made over 30 appearances? We just have to accept the coaches decision either way.

Mickael2:


but do you agree that Orji deserves a spot ahead of Oshimen, yes or no

Mickael2:


Portugal dropped Sanches for the confed squad, not because he isn't a class act but because other players are performing better than him, that is what I call professionalism at it's peak. We have game changers who could have been invited in place of Oshimen, Ajagun for example is the kind of player you can bring on when you are looking for an equaliser and play him as the DMF in a 3 man backline because he can also cover as the RB and LB allowing the actual fullbacks to bomb forward. Aluko is the kind of player you can bring on when a team adopts a man-to-man marking approach, he can easily beat his man unlike....Iwobi for example who would rather just pass the ball. I can name other game changers who I do not like personally but if we should be perfectly professional in our approach they deserve the spot more than Oshimen

Humility017:


I disagree...
please what has orji achieved in his playing career
can you please stop creating unnecessary debate
oshimen progressed from under 17 to SE...
u think the boy has nothing to offer...if the guy was not that good as you think...
at least one of these Nigeria coaches beginning from the under 17 would have dropped him
for your information ..the lad has the record for the highest goals scored in under 17 world cup.
what record has your orji set?
tell me.....

you just trying to give points that are not tenable...
now it is orji you wanna use to discredit oshimen
