Icon79: It's alright bro. We can all learn from each other. Although KC played quite well today. I believe his time will soon come. He just needs to keep on working hard. Claude also needs to give him more playing time. He really needs a coach that believes in his potential and encourages him constantly 1 Like |

Did England call him up to keep him away from us? yes. BUT WAS THAT THE MAIN CRITERIA? NO. My point is Tammy earned it, coming from his very good start in the EPL and his wonderful run the Championship the previous season, and he earned it in the U21s. He earned it especially at a time that Southgate didn't only want to promote youth but also had some casualties (think Solanke's invitation as well) in the team. It's seems we are in a pro-youth era (of course those that back it up with performance).These youth's will have a chance to fight for a place. But will they be giving a nod to make the train to Russia ONLY because they are young, capital no! 1000 people can click like to what you have to say, but that won't make it the fact.. of course you are sentimental, and you've already admitted to that.. so there is no point going on with this. Nigerians can hate on Tammy. it's well understood.. I won't fault that. But when he performs, I will say it as it is. .When he hits a rough patch, I will say it as it is.. But if you say he was being hyped, that's like saying Iheanacho was being hyped. I'm sure you won't like that ![]() safarigirl: 5 Likes 1 Share |

Oga Chelsea won't have won the league without Moses. It's just like saying Mikel wasn't critical for Chelsea in the past. How many times did Mikel make Team of the Year? Moses contributions wasn't very obvious but his role was critical, and it showed whenever he was not on the pitch. If you want to make a case for Salah, make your case. You don't have to talk down on Moses, or try to reduce his contributions last season. Modified. In fact I retract my statement, Moses' contribution was very obvious. He was very instrumental when Chelsea switched to 3-4-3. That was when their long winning streak began, and from that point in time they took the lead and were uncatchable in the log. What do you call that? That moniker that said he changed football, that was just an exaggeration. But hey he was that critical to their success last season. Jarus: 5 Likes |

But, I didn't like that part he was questioning the inclusion of Aubameyang, that was low brother. At least, this helps Moses see himself important to us. 3 Likes |

Nacho couldn't register his name on the scoresheet yesternight..although he missed a an opportunity to draw level after gifting his opponents a goal.. ![]() With striker studed Leicester city,i doubt he will be giving another chance but I pray so Meanwhile I think it's high time we put up the striking department as one of the areas to be looked upon because currently our strikers aren't performing at the highest level. In the absence of these, i will personally clamour for a false nine formation where all our forwards are SS.. My oppinion thoor ![]() 1 Like |

mazimee:Aubamayeng scored 31 in 32 games. He had a better season than Vic Moses. Why would he even compare Moses performance last season to that of Mahrez? Mahrez won player of the year and made team of the season. Vic Mo was judged right. Top 5. Salah, Mane, Aubamayeng, Naby Keita were all better. |

I really feel sorry for Nacho. He's in a very tight situation. Got injured at the start of the season, hasn't gotten the required run of games to regain sharpness and failed to grab the little opportunities that have come his way. The competition in front of him makes things even more difficult. Dude has to get a loan out. It's difficult to judge him based on lil cameos here and there. He isn't going to bench Vardy or Okazaki anytime soon. Puel doesn't seen interested in him. He has to leave. This can't go on... |

tbaba1234: This is something we've saying quite Long. Iheanacho ain't a bad Player, but he's ain't a quality Striker. He made it into limelight not by playing as a Striker, but as a 10. I still believe in him, and hopefully expecting him to become better Player by switching Role to SS or AM. He has wicked Shots in his left Leg. He can shoot and score from outside Box 18". He has good vision for making timely decisive Passes. Iheanacho ain't helped by Pep, he's in the same Case with Mikel under Mourinho. 1 Like |

Ex Nigeria U17 Goalkeeper Udoh Wins Another Man Of The Match Award In Israel December 18, 2017 ![]() Former Nigeria U17 goalkeeper Akpan Udoh was once again voted the man of the match for his Israeli side Bnei Sakhnin Fc in their 2-1 win over Kiryat Shmona in the youth league in Israel. Udoh stopped a penalty in the game to help his team pick up all three points, in what was the fourth straightforward league game he has played for the youth team. Already he has joined the first team in training this season, thanks to his impressive performance between the sticks since his move to Israel two months ago. The goalkeeper who was in goal for the 2015 Nigeria U17 team that won the World Youth Championship in Chile moved to Israel thanks to the efforts of Israeli agent David Ouziel. A part of the Nigerian U20 team that failed to qualify for the African Youth Championship last year, but the 18 year old is still eligible to feature for Nigeria at the same level. --OGN 1 Like |

komekn:You sha, you will bring every point in this world just to specially undermine Nigeria players.The only reason man city let him go was because iheanacho was the top goalscorer at the time for Nigeria in our qualifying series, it's only natural we clamor for game time for him, which apparently pep could see with his eyes that the boy deserved game time, so leave that "Found Wanting" tag you always push up, ur so comical with your comments sometimes I find it hard to believe your constantly in a football environment, just because of the bias you put in your comments. people in football should never be biased. Oga if you are only has good as your last game guys like bony before he came back to form, loic remy, januzaj, depay at Man U, Luke Shaw, Danny ings, invanovic lastly Falcao at Man U and Chelsea would never get another chance at the top level again, but they will because they have history and experience, you can never ignore that! Your arguments are so flawed, under Shakespeare gray was a regular coming in as a substitute, you are making it look like the guy was completely frozen out of the team. Oga man city did not beg anyone to buy KC if anything they wanted to keep him and continue his development that's how Good he was. Now I'm sure you know liecester were not the only team in EUROPE after him, the only way they got him was coz they paid top cash and even agreed to a buy back clause an average liecester fan knows they are lucky to have a player of iheanachos quality, FACT! So when you talk about his price tag please give this guy some respect because he deserves it! has not spent up to 6 months and you want to crucify him. lots of teams have had worse deals, the Great English academy system that produces Andy carrol the almighty Liverpool flop, or you think Man U have got thier returns on the money spent on Shaw? If not for Pep, even the English were starting to accept sterling was one of those countless overhyped wingers, or has chambers done anything in his arsenal career? Were all of these guys not big money transfers? And they didn't hit the ground running with all fees surpassing 30mil pounds so save it. See it simple just let us know you are a Nigerian that loves and support the British NT, it would help understand why you say the things you say. You say success is a waste pipe a player Marcos Silva rates highly but you want us to invite aneke, aluko, onyedinma who are in lower leagues to the SE are they not his mate? Have they not been in the English system all thier lives? So what's the excuse why are they overlooked by major epl clubs for a waste pipe Isaac success? Oga try and be more open minded. 12 Likes 1 Share |

Icon79: He was the second worst player after Alonzo (in terms of their defensive capabilities). I guess Chelsea/EPL don't like a black captain (not an assistant), same way Chelsea treated Babayaro for Terry to get the captain's band, but they were more diplomatic this time about giving it to Cahill, so they had to keep Mikel out of the team instead because the guy was still performing but wasn't even given a playing chance by conte at all. Is Mikel really that bad? 2 Likes |

Daejoyoung:Pls are you talking of EPL or football in general cos i will never accept "MOSES changed FOOTBALL" or Conte made 3-5-2 popular in the world of football cos this formation was even more popular in the Bundesliga so why the hype as if the formation is new to football. Mind you English pundits are free to say anything cos i don't take them serious due to over exaggeration.I don't think Bundesliga or LA liga would praise Conte to the extent of saying he brought something unique in 3-5-2 formation that has been in vogue for so many years.

Joebie:Kelechi's International Stats will probably look like that after 56 Caps. 19 games for Chelsea and 2 goals.... He must have been exceptionally useless for them back then.....makes you wonder what some of the Kelechi detractors must have said of him back then....the same ones praising him today must have laughed at him then and said how much of a waste of money he is. Papers would have called him a flop and Chelsea fans on Twitter must have called for his head But Time changes all things, just like time changed the downward spiral of Moses' career and elevated Salah back to that Premier league he must have had nightmares of from his last experience I wonder how many Egyptians tossed him aside back then.....

safarigirl:Lol, l have said it before that Moses deserves to be third ahead of Abumeyang this time, because he had more positive games for club and country(just like Sallah and Mane) but someone here argued Abumeyang should be there because he was top scorer in the German league. l don't think that is good enough, but l know the sentiments involved in these selections. Abumeyang is already believed to be top thirty in the World, and so CAF award must have him there, neglecting the fact that this is an African award. l also remember there was a time an Egyptian should have won it in 2010, due to his outstanding performance for both Egypt and Al Ahly(the best African club) then but it was given to Adebayo, solely because he was top scorer for Arsenal(not that Arsenal could even win the epl) then but still we call it an African award and anyone who disagrees is simply sentimental (what an irony). 2 Likes |

Kog45: Lolzzzzz. Excellent analysis. Except that e get k-leg small The problem I have with all of these is when the rules change, you wont be here to defend it and clearly show us what really happened. I never wanted to comment on this APOTY but i think I have had enough! Left to me, the award is a popularity contest. Its no longer about contributions to the world of football. Even your analysis says it all. This is why when you watch talent shows, absurd people win in a ridiculous manner that befuddles the mind. And still we will have some weird way of explaining it away. All the goals Okocha scored in the EPL nko? Werent they enough for him to be named APOTY? Ever since he left bolton wanderers, what has become of them? You wanna know? They wandered throungh lower tier leagues. At least he was named BBC African footballer twice. Where was all this recognition in Caf? So my friend, this analysis sweet as it sounds, is still a biased one. If Caf wants to put things right, it shouldnt be about exploits in European leagues. The parameters need to be a lot more clearer and not on sentimental speculation of international rating. And certainly also not on goal scoring prowess. End of story! 1 Like |
