I don't see iheanacho's name in the top 10 best young talent in the world, I don't see iheanacho's name among the nominees for the golden boy award, I didn't see iheanacho's name when Ronaldo mentioned the top 7 players in the world that can take over from him when he retires
His name was mentioned but it was silent buahahaha grin

Kelechi is being hyped? But the stats don't say so. 7 goals out of 11 international caps is no hype. Compared to Rashfords 2 out of 11 (coincidentally). EPL goals per minute ratio is not a hype. We have a sound argument. You can have your argument, but you won't win here anyway.

You will definitely win in English threads for sure.

Bro,,,, you cant win dis kind of argument here.
You know why? Kelechi is a god here grin
He's being hyped here since time immemorial, say anything against him here, many will call you hater.

Sir TheGoodJoe.... seems our names don reach Man Utd thread oooo.... I just got a mention and I was kinda surprised to see I got a mention in the European section... lol

Honestly speaking I have never for one day or even a second set eyes on that thread.... looolll... but today of all days we have been mentioned... me who no even get EPL or European club sef... looollll... .Seems our super Eagles ministry is spreading... grin cheesy

Some Dollophead (forgive me for this Sir BascoVanVeli... I just had to) in the Man Utd thread called Mystic01 or Should I say mysticcrap... says you (TheGoodJoe) and I are one and the same.... loolll.... Calls us the most stewpid guys on NL for speaking the stats on deadliest/most clinical/most prolific in the EPL based on current stat reports....


But almost Everyone knows that if no man or woman here on NL sports can tell the difference between TheGoodJoe and TheSupernerd.... then that fella must indeed be the most lobotomised Dollophead I have ever heard of..... good lord! cheesy

Iheanacho's record internationally will continue to dwarf Rashford's. We can start from the U17s if you will, until now.

See you at the end of the current EPL season. Because even on that basis, we will have the last laugh.

TheSuperNerd:
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.

Tu comprends? smiley

Re: "The Super Eagles Thread: The Road To AFCON 2025 And 2026 World Cup by TheSuperNerd(m): 3:50pm On Sep 22, 2017
Looollll... it has become just "my reasoning" now eh? cheesy

Not EPL site's or whoscored or Sqwuaka's reasoning abi? wink

Just classic... and you talk of Gabby Jesus being deadlier... loolll... the article I have shown you in a previous post showed Kelechi was at a point even more clinical and deadlier than C.Ronaldo himself.... beat that! grin

Stats don't lie.... they don't show you the full story but they certainly don't lie.... especially when it is a matter of goals naa....

Tu comprends Mon Frere? cheesy





Leyqute:


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.

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.

If Nacho is more clinical than other strikers, then you should have no problem saying he is better than them. After all, the primary duty of a striker is to score goals

Kelechi has earned his name. When he started out with Man City under Pelegrini, was he hyped?

The point is we won't be conned at the antics of some powers that be. Kelechi has shown that he is class and no one will downgrade him just because Pep didn't give him a good run of games. After all, didn't Pep insist on a buy back clause?

Kelechi is special. And that's a fact! And there is no hype about that. Only special players begin their senior international careers with that kind of goals return.

Is he better than Harry Kane as an all-round player? No way will I say that... Kane has been at the top more than Nacho... and Kane has proven himself big time. Kane is more experienced.

When Kelechi was banging the goals at City was he revered above England youth players by the English press? No!

Think my brother. Let each one hold on to their stats and blow their own trumpets.

But don't forget this thread is dedicated to the Super Eagles, and Kelechi is King here because he already has 7 goals for us. Any other performance by the special lad na jara.

Sir Joebie... I bet you that if Rashford was the one with Kelechi-like scoring stats The Man U and EPL fanboys will swing it like a double-edge sword and put it up our throats and shove it in our faces.... looollll

Even when it comes to International goals, Nacho trumps Rashford and here they are avoiding that route also.... Hahahahahahahahaha... bunch of Wailing dollopheads...... sorry I mean wailing Red devilheads... grin




P.S: Make no mistake about it... I got no EPL or European Club... so this is not hate. I even have a few favorite players in Man utd... I said that earlier to a certain Dope or something... what is his moniker again? (will check and modify)
*modified* DopeJemi smiley

haha Messi may not have won the world cup, but he's had quite a successful international career compared to many. But yet, at the same time, he does not feel he has achieved internationally. That even supports my argument. If there is anything that Messi needs badly, it is the World Cup trophy with Argentina.
