Which part of the phrase "just returned from a troubling injury" don't you understand mister?

And I just told you he is top 3 deadliest/most clinical in the EPL and you are saying he doesnt make Top 10... shocked Don't you read?

Why do you guys of the EPL fans club love running on half truths and turn blind eyes to the whole truth? Smh... waste of time explaining further.. next plss...



This is funny. You don't even know the meaning of "deadliest". And being clinical is out of it. If you don't get into the right position(s) you won't score many goals.

If you were a coach and you had to choose between Kelechi and Diego Costa who would you go for?

Can you explain sensibly how Keleboy is the 3rd "deadliest/most clinical" striker in the EPL? Let's see if you can.

Your new 10 Zlatan will return and I wonder if you will still sound so confident then... wink

mister I don't do bets.... but When Nacho is in his best physical condition, you will see a real player despite Leicester's not-so-inspiring style... mark this space. Hahahahahahahahaha....

Anybody comparing Rashford with Asensio must be high on Kunu. Please go and Google Asensio vs Macedonia during one of the U21 games and tell me Rashford can even dream of such performance.

This is the hype I am talking about. Because Manchester United gives him playing time, he is the real deal since Giggs.

Allow the young man work hard for his future. Leave the hype.

I am not even on the hype train, my point is, right now, presently, rashford is the better player, nobody cares why iheanacho is not playing, nobody cares why he was on the bench for city before he got shipped out, heck! I was one of the few who wanted him to join another club so he could prove Guardiola wrong

under pellegrini, I was of the opinion that he was better than rashford, that was me calling a spade a spade, but right now, rashford has developed and still is while iheanacho on the other isn't due to maybe injuries, lack of playing time

Right now as it stands, Rashford is the better player

when we bought Zlatan, many thought that was the end of rashford in the starting 11, fast forward to the end of last season, he was starting finals with Zlatan

I don't doubt Iheanacho's quality, there was a time I wanted him in Man Utd, but right now as it stands, Rashford is the better player until Kelechi comes back and proves otherwise

Why is deadlier? A big muscular man with a matchet or a highly skilled marksman with a sniper riffle? I am sure you will choose the later.

That is why Nacho is deadlier. He is sure to convert more chances.

Never seen this moniker before so I can guess where it came from... but I Love your question because I have the perfect answer for it.

In all honesty... looking at all these players and their all round plays and contributions... come on now Brother... ask yourself this... is it fair comparing Guys with years of experience at the top with a lad like Nacho who is starting out? huh?

But I will still answer nonetheless.... wink


Better than Kane? No way!

Better than Lukaku? Come on man .. where did you get that? Are u ok? Nada... at least not yet...

Better than Vardy? Okay now... give me a break.. what part of NO don't you understand.. The N or the O? still not yet.. Vardy is 30.. Nacho is 20... come on !

Better than Morata? Chaaiiiii... morata? shocked Give Nacho a break...kid is U-21 dammit! cheesy


Look... I have said this before many pages ago and I will say it again.... I am not saying he is better than those strikers or even Kun Aguero... nope...

But I am saying he got something they (except Aguero) don't have... and that is the reputation of being among the top three deadliest forwards or strikers in the EPL based on goals per mins ratio... and that my friend is the koko... not who dribbles better or who does backlifts better or who got more pace or who does more snake bites or roulettes... or who moonwalks better... wink

It is about who scores at a more clinical rate.... and the job of strikers is to score goals. That is the hallmark of a striker or forward.

I do not drown my head with playing time. I am interested in quality. Rashford can have the glory. I am more interested in what Nacho does in the near future because I see his finishing quality. Even Guardiola confirms it. When Nacho plays for a side that creates chances, I expect fireworks.

I still remember arguing for Lukaku when he was in Chelsea with people criticising him. Even Chelsea fans. One even called him the worst signing Chelsea ever made. I knew him at Anderlecht. Watched him against Ajax. He was a kid then. I think still in high school. I knew he was quality.

When he got a good (note this) chance, he took it. Not all chances/playing time are good chances. It must have the right blend.

We in English class now okay... allow me then... lol

In football, "Deadliest FW/ST" refer to the strikers/forwards who are most lethal with their strikes on goal and goals conversion... It could also be explained as being Really Clinical.

Now feed on this... the internet is awash with it... just took this one from a recent article I posted on this same thread several pages back... wink

Top 10 EPL deadliest/Most Clinical (EPL-Min per goal record)

10. Robin van Persie – 139.69

9. Luis Suarez – 138.8

8. Javier Hernandez – 134.03

7. Ruud van Nistelrooy – 128.19

6. Adam le Fondre – 124.33

5. Thierry Henry – 121.79

4. Harry Kane – 119.53

3. Kelechi Iheanacho – 113.92

2. Sergio Aguero – 108.44

1. Gabriel Jesus – 88.82.



http://www.givemesport.com/1149649-sergio-aguero-and-kelechi-iheanacho-have-lost-their-pl-minutepergoal-record

Who would I go for between Costa and Kelechi? I prefer playing a 4-3-3 and 4-3-1-2 and Kelechi will be my pick easily... his linkup plays is great and better than Costa's and he got excellent Vision and good technique.. Costa is all brawn and power and directness... I don't need that. In 4-3-1-2 for instance I will pair him with another forward... smiley

In other systems if I may switch.. I will take Costa in a 4-2-3-1 or in a 4-5-1... so there you have it.

Oga, it's mostly subjective. Rankings etc. For us here we will keep ringing about the minute to goal ratio because that stat no be beans, and it supports our argument

You don't go to a Man U thread and say a damn thing about any of their special players and get away scott-free.

This is a pro-Nigeria thread. Should a Ghanian come here and say any trash about our players, he will get enough rain of abuses.

Anyone who comes here and chooses to talk down on our players should not expect a different treatment. If you really think Rashford is better you can keep that argument within yourself, else expect anything here.

Just as England holds dearly their own, we also hold dearly ours.

But let's call a spade, a spade. Iheanacho is class. He has scored more goals for Nigeria than Rashford has for England. And Rashford will most likely never win a senior international trophy. But guess who definitely will, before he hangs his boots? grin

So if you like keep using England celebrated ManU as your yardstick. Now, does it hold?

Work Permit Delays Amuzie’s Lugano Debut


By Johnny Edward:

Super Eagles left-back Stanley Amuzie is yet to make his much-awaited debut for his new Swiss League side FC Lugano because he has yet to procure his work permit, Completesportsnigeria.com reports.

Amuzie joined FC Lugano on a season loan deal from Italian side Sampdoria. He will play no part in their clash against Sion on Thursday due the work permit issue.

The former Nigeria U-23 defender has continued to shine in training for the Swiss club, and could be named in the squad for their weekend’s clash with Grasshoppers.

I can't fault Pinnick in this Tammy's issue. Knowing Naija papers and journalists, everything is a damn competition to them. What may have happened is Pinnick would not have explicitly said we have landed the boy. He may have told journalists in whatever state they were the other day that we met with the boy as I was visiting my padi who happens to be Tammy's dad and the outcome is looking positive and shown them the pics. Trust me in the eagerness to be the 1st to break the news, the journalist would label it as Tammy Abraham agrees to play for Nigeria. This is what I'm thinking happened. To Nigerian journalist "the outcome looks positive" is the same as "he has agreed". Is it not Naija papers that called Rabiu Ali's goal against Benin as screamer.... lmaooooo

I don't think Pinnick would want to jeopardize his friendship with his boyhood friend by claiming his son said what he didn't say. Cos if I'm the one, I'd call Pinnick and be like "bro wet in u go yan for Naija, see pressure wey u don put for my pikin".

Now to what England can do in terms of tying him. England have 2 games till the qualifiers end and need one win to qualify. If they win their next game, they could call up Tammy from the under21s for the last game. If they do that, be rest assured he's going to play even if it's 1min of injury time and that would be it. If for some reason they lose their next game and need the last one to qualify, then Tammy would be available until the Euro qualifiers begin next year. I don't expect England to go through the playoffs for WC. They are 5 points ahead and must qualify as top.

NFF and Pinnick must discreetly submit the papers to FIFA provided he's not cap tied after October this year. It'll just surprise England when they receive the form from either FIFA or NFF asking them to approve the request.

Henceforth, NFF should be quiet in its allegiance switch dealings. Take a cue from Senegal and CIV. You don't hear of it till they have invited the player.

I know you don't have a football sense so let me school you in the shortest possible manner.

Kelechi is a good player. I'm not against his goal per minute ratio and I hope he remain at the top but you need to address facts.

At City Keleboy comes on as a sub and scores, most times when City are ahead and the opponent is defeated already. He had many goals this way and that's what's boosting his goals/game ratio.

Last season K-boy had 20 league appearances and was a sub for 15 of them. He scored 4 goals. Overall K-boy has 12 EPL goals in 49 appearances.

That is not the statistics of a deadly striker. A deadly striker scores at least once in every 3 games he's started in. A deadly striker is a threat to your defenders because he could score any minute. A deadly striker scores a lot of goals.

If you say Kele-boy has a better goal per minute ratio than everybody else, I won't argue with you.

So quit yarning your nonsense. Iheanacho is not in the top 10 when you talk about deadliest strikers in the EPL. A good goal/min ratio doesn't make you a deadly striker.

Last season Harry Kane scored 29 goals from 30 appearances and he came on as a sub just once. In the previous season he scored 25 goals from 38 appearances (all of which he started). That is a deadly striker.

But in a different scenario, we saw the limitation of that substitution. Rohr has taken note of this I am sure.

And yes Agu started against Togo in that 3-0 win. He did well in the game. Maybe Ogu and Agu together for Algeria after bagging the ticket against Zambia? loolll

Ah, tu ments, cher frere. D'etre "deadly" n'est pas la meme chose d'avoir "high Goa/min ratio".

Tu comprends maintenant eh?

We in English class now okay... allow me then... lol

In football, "Deadliest FW/ST" refer to the strikers/forwards who are most lethal with their strikes on goal and goals conversion... It could also be explained as being Really Clinical.

Now feed on this... the internet is awash with it... just took this one from a recent article I posted on this same thread several pages back... wink

Top 10 EPL deadliest/Most Clinical (EPL-Min per goal record)

10. Robin van Persie – 139.69

9. Luis Suarez – 138.8

8. Javier Hernandez – 134.03

7. Ruud van Nistelrooy – 128.19

6. Adam le Fondre – 124.33

5. Thierry Henry – 121.79

4. Harry Kane – 119.53

3. Kelechi Iheanacho – 113.92

2. Sergio Aguero – 108.44

1. Gabriel Jesus – 88.82.



http://www.givemesport.com/1149649-sergio-aguero-and-kelechi-iheanacho-have-lost-their-pl-minutepergoal-record

Who would I go for between Costa and Kelechi? I prefer playing a 4-3-3 and 4-3-1-2 and Kelechi will be my pick easily... his linkup plays is great and better than Costa's and he got excellent Vision and good technique.. Costa is all brawn and power and directness... I don't need that. In 4-3-1-2 for instance I will pair him with another forward... smiley

In other systems if I may switch.. I will take Costa in a 4-2-3-1 or in a 4-5-1... so there you have it.



Okay. I see your reasoning.

According to you, Gabriel Jesus is the deadliest striker in the EPL because he has the highest goal/minute ratio.

Dries Mertens has scored a goal every 96 minutes for Napoli. To you, he is more deadly than C. Ronaldo who scores a goal every 102 minute for Real Madrid. Heck, Gabriel Jesus is deadlier than Cristiano Ronaldo too.

first of welcome to our humble thread i also visit the man u thread plus other foreign club's threads once in a while. my own take is that it's too early to judge who is better between rashford and kelechi. both camps have good arguments why they feel his own player is ahead but like joebie said this is a pro nigerian thread so it's only natural we back our boy iheanacho. sentiments aside rashford is currently ahead based on playing time and goals scored but we all know how the english establishment (understandably) tend to encourage any young hot english talent plus playing around world class talent and being coached by a world renowned manager would obviously rob of on him. kelechi had a fantastic breakthrough season with pellegrini's man city before he slowed down a bit under pep. he's just restarting his career with leicester so it's too early to say he won't succeed there. however international wise you have to admit kc trumps rashford. already his stats for nigeria are amazingly impressive. 7 goals in 11 starts can't be sneezed at and if all goes according to plan he will have a chance to win atleast one AFCON in his career. rashford on the other hand can you confidently put your hand on your heart that he will make it to the semis let alone finals of any international tournament with england?

rashford may still go on to make it big with man u but one thing i have learned over the years watching many english strikers like rooney,
shearer, andy cole, teddy sherringham, les ferdinand etc is that they may score tonnes of goals in the league but when true levelers like world cups, euros and champions league competitions their hype disappear. this same rashford was present when iceland with a population barely the size of lagos island knocked out england with all the kanes, vardys, dele allis of this world

dopeJemi:


what is that international trophy kelechi will win before rashford? Nigeria's lack of quality strikers is the reason why kelechi can start for the eagles, was it not ighalo that led the line against Cameroon, fncking ighalo

in a team that has vardy, Harry Kane, Rashford still starts, in a team that has ibrahimovic, Lukaku, martial, rashford still starts but when it was just Aguero and Wilfred bony, Kelechi couldn't start

lol abi you no see EPL for there? How about we talk in terms of international performance, etc?
So what's your own basis?
