Did somebody say he is a bad passer of the ball. Let me add John Ogu's (not even considering the leagues they play)

Even though I also won't take Joel Obi to a competition like the World Cup considering the fact that he is injury prone, but the truth must be said the guy is world class midfielder and very far from been an average player.

Can you help me check statistics of Sheu, azubike..? In their respective clubs..

I know what am saying we have seen good players not getting a good deals abroad and we have just there players finding themselves in top clubs in Europe... Considering his injury worries... No club ...i repeat no club will put their money on any injury prone player..


I like Joel Obi but good agent help him alot... He has been in Seria A all his life... And that's also working for him too.. I can see it again he got a good agent...

changing the goal post. We are talking about who is a better passer. it's already an established fact that Obi is injury prone. We want to know what both players have done while on the pitch. And I can go back in time to give you the stats. Take note that i'm not even considering the leagues where they ply their trades. Ogu plays in the Israeli League for goodness sake grin

I rarely use the words word class. But for him I will say near world class. Could he have been world class by every standard? -- definitely

so if u r Rohr,u would drop Etebo,after having worked so hard during the qualifiers,and still very much inform,been tasted and trusted, u would drop such a player to a player like joel obi,first injury prone,second,qaulity wise,just average.
then explain the reason why u joel in place of etebo and ogu,is he better than them?
In terms of pure ability, Joel Obi Is far better than those 2. If he's fit, he makes our world cup squad easy.

Season 2016/2017

Joel Obi (Serie A) VS John Ogu (Ligat ha'Al)

Modified:
For more than twice the amount of time Joel Obi spent on the pitch, Ogu could only equal him in assists.
Ogu picked 8 yellow cards compared to Obi's 3

We are talking Serie A vs Israeli top flight

The way Zambian fans have invaded Super eagles Fbook page and every Nigerian football sites is giving me sleepless night...I have even entered an agreement with a Zambian to renounce my citizenship if Nigeria loses and he also agreed to do same if we beat them. The screenshot of our conversation on FB is what we intend to use against eachother. Please let's pray for our Darling Super Eagles to win, I love Nigeria and can't afford to renounce citizenship now. If I do, where do I go?
Na to troll them hard if them lose...I'll personally act like a 15 year old again when we beat them

Azubuike is playing top flight football for the first time in his career, if I'm not mistaking.
There is nothing to check about Shehu right now -- Cyprus, seriously?

Here is Azubuike in the Turkish second tier (16/17 season)

Firstly, countries take more than 16 players to the world cup. The argument was who will Joel Obi bench? (Ogu and Etebo have not been starting). A fully fit Obi will not only make the list to the world cup, but will also start. Take that to the bank.

Absolutely! Especially when you consider the disaster the legendary, but the then clubless, Peter Rufia caused us at France '98 World Cup.
No matter how good you are, a keeper needs to be match sharp in order to perform. Hence, if Enyeama has not played any competitive match for over 1 year before the World Cup, I would be very concerned if we use him as our #1 keeper in Russia.

Mickael2:



Let me ask you an honest question. Would you choose Ezenwa from IU Fc over a clubless Enyeama?
Re: "The Super Eagles Thread: The Road To AFCON 2023, 2025 And 2026 World Cup by Joebie: 11:12pm On Sep 28, 2017
I totally agree as regards that length of inactivity.

But it's not like Ezenwa was a regular with IU prior to his recent exploits with the Super Eagles A and B team.

In the same vein, if Enyeama could get a few games under his belt before the world cup, he should easily displace Ezenwa.

Yea, let's pray and hope that Vince gets a club by January. Or else we'll have to schedule a dozen friendly matches, in the summer, to get him match sharp before the world cup proper.

Correction on AllNigeriaSoccer report:

Torunarigha did not foul Gero. Torunarigha's left hand touched the ball while Gero was trying to beat him in the 18 yard box.
Re: "The Super Eagles Thread: The Road To AFCON 2023, 2025 And 2026 World Cup by Joebie: 11:32pm On Sep 28, 2017
By demonstrating excellence in a few games Enyeama will easily get the nod ahead of Ezenwa.

As a defensive midfielder, I really won't go that far. I have followed Joel Obi's career and I like him a lot but Okechukwu Azubike is a solid DM. Short and simple.

then in place of who? as DM,CM or AM? NDIDI,ONAZI,or MIKEL?
is he going to play as a wing forward,compare him with MOSES and IWOBI. from these 5 mentioned players, who is he going to bench if he must start?
