Mickael2: Alaba was under 17 when he joined Bayern. He was not made by the Austrian League. Mane did not take the premier league by storm.. He was a decent player, nothing more. 2 Likes |

Mickael2: So because CR7 came from EPL and took the World by storm, every player from England will take the World by storm? Duh. I am pointing out that two quality players from a league is a poor figure. I said should I list players from other top leagues to explain competition. I am not saying that Kayode can not pull of a big show, I am saying the competition is poor there. Highlighting beating Roma does not make the competition stronger. Alaba and Mane does not make the competition stronger. I said the league is weak. 1 Like |

TheGoodJoe:I'm taking about the growth currently witnessed in Austrian football,the massive investment in their league and even their national team these days, while you quoted and was about listing stars who play in Spain and Italy. We are not even singing from the same hym booklet. |

tbaba1234: he was already playing for Austria wien when he left, by then he was already 70% developed at least. meanwhile a player who almost singlehandedly led Liverpool to a top four finish is just a decent player? but.... Iheanacho for example is a world beater? the kind of bias statements you guys make ehn... 3 Likes |

tbaba1234: It's not about just the league. It'd about football development in the country in general. They invested massively in their football system from bottom up, while hiring highly qualified managers mostly from Germany. Their investment saw them qualify for the European nations cup last year. A feat they never managed to achieve in donkey years. Alaba was nurtured from the system. If they didn't construct that platform, Bayern Munich wouldn't have discovered Alaba in the first place. 3 Likes |

TheGoodJoe:They are certainly moving in the right direction and their teams are getting good results in Europe. Even Rebull Slazburg hit Pep Guardiola's Bayern Munich 3 :0. This sort performances and results will make you understand that Kayode is not playing against some clowns. I frankly prefer Austrian league to the Scandinavia leagues. |

tbaba1234: Yea but they are no longer as strong... Compare that midfield composition with the era when Essien, KPB, Muntari held sway. Take a look at their defense, nothing to write home about. To imagine that they still depend on an old guard like Gyan for goals sums up the miserable condition they are in, presently. Gyan isn't it anymore and Jordan Ayew just doesn't measure up. The few big(though average at best) names but Andre Ayew u see on that list, are bunch of chronic bench warmers in their respective club sides. The Parteys, Armateys and Acquahs of this world. The only guy(K. Asamoah) who would have been an exception has been as unlucky as our own Joel Obi with injuries. Seriously, Ghana is feeling the heat |

TheGoodJoe: for a player playing for the second best team in a 'one team league' to win the highest goalscorer shows that he is very good. when was the last time you heard that a player neither from Madrid nor Barcelona won the pichichi in Spain? that was Forlan and I don't need to start singing his praises 1 Like |

Naby Keita went straight from the Austrian league to boss bundesliga. He made buli team of the season. The league isn't that strong but let's not undermine Kayode talent. 2 Likes |

TheGoodJoe: If that be the case,then my preferred lineup would be • Akpeyi •Shehu •Ekong •Awazeim •Echijele •Ndidi •Onazi •Etebo •Iwobi •Musa •Iheanacho ** I hope Omeruo doesn't start.. he may be one of the most experienced player in the team,but truth me told,he has been sloppy of late. I don't trust him not to fumble against SA. Rohr might probably play him anyway cus of his experience ** Etebo playing on the flanks would be cool since he is versatile. 4 Likes |

The other dude is correct. Etebo played from the wing. Mikel always played behind Sadiq Umar. Usman and Azuibuike pivoted the deeper MF roles. Etebo was mainly on the left wing, but occasionally switched with Imoh. But Etebo was on the wing for 90% of the tournament he played. Mickael2: |

Some Dudes are quick at accusing Forgiveness of Nepotism, yet they are the Champions of it. It wasn't wrong for Iheanacho to only be drilling without Competitive Football at the Club level, and still be making the SE List, but it's a Suicide to invite a Regular at a Club who often plays European Competition. It's 100% WRONG to be comparing Osimhen with Kayode. is it because the former plays (on the Bench) for a German lowly Club?! I enjoin some Dudes to revisit their Posts and objectively analyze it. They would know they are being Partial and ain't taking the Bull by its Horns. Kayode has been prolific for 2 solid Years, he's even named the Best Player in the League this Season for God's sake! I can't believe this is happening on this Thread. Someone should tell me where the Unity lies here in the Thread?! Kayode honorably deserves the Call up. He's not lobbied into the Team by anyone, rather his performance on the Pitch speaks louder for him. We can quick to sing-praise Onyekuru, but we shouldn't talk much of Kayode because he's plying his Trade in a lesser League in Europe?! Someone even rated Israel League ahead of the Austria League simply to condemn Kayode's Achievements?! SMH! This Thread needs to be fortified of Nepotism, and Objectivity should be given a limelight to SHINE. 6 Likes |
