Famocious:
Nigerian trio Alex Iwobi (#25), Kelechi Iheanacho (#29), and Wilfred Ndidi (#36) named among L'Equipe's top 50 U21 players in World football .

Leyqute:


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.

TheSuperNerd:
Finally clicked Share on this comment....

Was initially withheld by the antispambots before the supermods came to my aid (reason why I replied most mentions much later).

This comment by Sir Joebie deserves a prize on this thread.... I was just awed by it. Even First lady of the house, Safarigirl couldn't resist this... awwwwwwwwn...
she said "My Joebie"... in *libero80's voice*

Sir Joebie you deserve something... a kiss from the first lady will not be a bad idea as part of the something...... I could throw in a bottle of Coke and some KFC Chicken..... Loooll.... or you love MacDonald's?

Famocious:

You are welcome brother.. I've fixed in the source , thanks for calling my attention to it.

Joebie:
haha thank you my brother..

I already have my bottles.. I'm waiting

Joebie:
Sir, in fact I was compiling my own list of top 5 defenders that are available for Nigeria. Believe me I tried to formulate a way of rating these players and I realized the likes of Ehizibue of Zwolle FC, and Kenny Otigba are underrated. Both defenders have clocked lots of minutes professionally and have given good account of themselves, but have hardly had ENOUGH mentions on this thread or elsewhere.

Well let me digress. I've come up with an idea to respond and to engage as regards our arguments starting with the much talked about Tammy Abraham's case that trended yesterday. Many of us will get to see the voice and face behind my moniker. Just a way to make this more fun. And who knows it? We could make our beloved thread even more popular. I will be quoting monikers from on here, and I would even go on to address the likes of Pinnick and Onigbinde.. I will not stop there.. those English fans are about to hear weeeeen.. And you peepo that like EPL clubs pass your mama.. I dey come for una oh..

But first I'm asking for all of your blessings..

TheGoodJoe Kog45 TheSuperNerd supernerd247 (haha) the two madam gidgbams in the house of course. tbaba1234 .. in fact i can keep naming please remember to apply forgiveness if I didn't mention you oh.

In fact I know it will be somehow if I don't attempt to name more monikers. So let me just try because anything I do, I want to do4luv14
I can tell you for sure , it's not going to be yet another just a blog like chrisooblog
All of a sudden today we witnessed new monikers. I'm even beginning to believe they are Zambians (OCT 7th is your date of banishment and for garnishment).. monikers we've never seen before talking about rashy rashford. They had the guts to put beloved Kelechi in their lips.. and some of us who have been loyal in this thread joined them.
lol.. Michael1! Michael2 Michael3! How many times I call you? Do like Angel Michael na

Sir ChrisKels I hail oh.. Anytime I see that moniker, I remember Kels.. that legendary musician when get some kind bad habits.. But I am loyal oh

soetanoreoluwa the pastor, oya pray for us.
komekn the scout above all scouts. Where art thou! The man when sabi the nook and cranny of England. he sabi all the kurukere.. even all our U10 players for England he know them reach their middle names.. I greet you oh!

TheGoodJoe:
TheSuperNerd, do not spend too much time with those guys from the European thread. You were the one who asked about my absence during the Rivers Jubilee and I was among those who welcomed you. So them calling stupid and others and then calling us the same person is just funny.

I ignore most of those threads.

TheGoodJoe:


I disagree with the idea that Pep Guardiola was bad for Iheanacho. He was good for Nacho but a lot of people are trapped in the playing time as the only development means. We are seeing the transformation of Sane taking place without regular playing time. Taking his chance with a brace, coming off the bench. One of the goals a stunner. Followed it up with a start in the league cup game against West Brom. One of the goals a beauty.

There is loads of development behind the scenes. That was what I was interested in. From day one, I pointed that I have no problem with Iheanacho benching. I never did. What I wanted was the tactical and lifestyle training. These are things that can not be learnt on the training pitch.

TheSuperNerd:
@first bolded....



Cc Safarigirl **whispers... Joebie.. u Berra have 10packs ooo...


@second bolded.... Excuse me? Address pinnick and Onigbinde? **Well at least your last words in bold-italics says it all...... unless**



@third bolded..... Blessings to do what exactly?
You said many things man....


Anyway, on the defenders.... Ehizibue have been given mentions here before by monikers such as Sir Tbaba1234, Sir Forgiveness and even myself.... Just that he is kinda a more focused on the dutch for now...

Otigba is now at Ferencvaros of Hungary I believe... he is still one I can give a look into but well... Let's see shaa...

bigblangston:
Transformation of Sane? Sane had been hot and outstanding before he came to the EPL, his last season with schalke 04, he played 33 games and scored 7-8 goals and he was even invited and played for the national team before he signed the dotted lines for Manchester City, I wonder what you are trying to prove here maybe you are trying to say that it was Guardiola that made him know how to play. Anyway, I'm expecting you to say it was pep who transformed Aguero in knowing how to score.

Joebie:
So Shmidt decided to omit Osimhen entirely today and they held Mighty Bayern away.. na wa o

TheGoodJoe:

I do not know what is happening to Bayern. How they took a two goal lead and drew the game is baffling. Beckenbauer must be punching his head now.

As for Osimhen, patience.

Joebie:
haha it's already weekend na!!!

GERMANY: Bundesliga - Round 6

Bayern Munich 2-2 Wolfsburg (FULL-TIME)

Felix Uduokhai was on from start to finish for Wolfsburg
Victor Osimhen conspicously missing from Schmidt's side.

TheSuperNerd:
This Felix guy keeps getting game time which is great... Rohr should intensify his radar lock on that guy.

As for Torunarigha, have you noticed he has been sidelined for a while now because of Plattenhardt?

Joebie:
Oh did you say real u14?

Joebie:
In fact I don't know what's stopping Rohr from speaking Deutche.

Torunarigha's case no big deal. We already know he is a Bundesliga material. What's happening to him is happening to Echiejile in Turkey. haha

TheSuperNerd:
Well Torunarigha is still young and got huge potentials. I still want us to get him. Even good that Plattenhardt is getting the shine now... it takes Germany's eyes off Toru....

Hoping we can land both German-breeds to add to our Defensive options... would be simply awesome.

Joebie:
Did any of them turn down Rohr's overtures initially?

Chrismario:


By Fifa ranking, they re are ahead of Nigeria and many Caf powerhouse.

When was last time Zambia defeated European team?

junnyjake:



hahahaha, calm down na.

Rashford was extremely lucky, the season before his breakthrough, Van Gaal sold Van Persie, Falcao, chicharito, welbeck, Wilson was on loan.

So he only had Rooney and Martial.

Rooney was out due to injury, even William Keane (a white player) that was above him in the pecking order, got injured in one of the cup games leading to our Europa game.

Martial was injured in the warm-up drills minutes before the kickoff. Rashford was next in line to start. Which he did. One can say luck played a huge part in his rise.

Nacho wasn't as lucky as he is.

TheSuperNerd:
Not exactly.... I think. Although we already know of Toru's dad comments....

I think it is matter of how concrete our approach is for them. Maybe Rohr is keeping things low key as he did with Noah Bazee coz there is no way Rohr don't know about those two. Absolutely no chance he doesn't know. He got connections there naa as one who has worked with the German Federation before sef...

komekn:


Not a fan of luck but grace and diligence.

Getting an opportunity is one thing but what you do with it matters. Rashford seized his opportunity like a hungry lion and seized it, the rest is history as we say.
