Kog45: That's the reason I said probably is not sure but I can say he's 70 per cent sure he will make the world cup list provided he's fit and injury free... He's the one left footed back we have... If he's playing regularly in his club... He's world cup bound |

Dannyxy:Oezil and Sanchez started their last game, Iwobi didn't. Its sensible for anyone to say he didn't justify his inclusion because he didn't start the last one. Can you please stop nitpicking and reading meaning to my comments. I don't appreciate being made to explain every sentence I make. |

ChrisKels: I was expecting to get reactions from the @bolded but I was not disappointed there was no reactions. However, when I mentioned Tosin Adarabioyo, Dominic Solanke, Lookman Ademola, Kehinde etc we saw negative reactions. Maka why? What is the difference btw these German boys to the Queen's boys? Did they not all openely rejected us? Why is Rohr not critized here for trying to beg these boys? Hahahahahahahahahahaha! Some people's heart can't be hidden here. As for me, I am open to all foreign breed good enough for the SE and these include both the Queen's boys and German boys. Period 2 Likes |

oloriooko:We know it's not thesame Argentina we saw during the friendly we will see at the world Cup. What about Nigeria, you think it's thesame Nigeria the Argentines will see also? So you think while Argentina would improve their game against Nigeria at the world Cup, we wouldn't do thesame? 3 Likes 1 Share |

OMANBALA1: Well, average players do come out of their shells to do some extraordinary things on rare occasions. We saw how Osaze won the player of the month award twice back-back a feat achieved by few at the time. Also winning the best African player that season. How Ighalo became the highest goalscorer in the EPL 2015. The coming together of average players with an hunger to succeed would be a team to beat. All we ask for is that recognition be given to average players who've done some extraordinary things. 2 Likes |

junnyjake: I don't think there is anything wrong with his career. The guy threw away money to come down to Turkey but dem no wan pay am the small money dem suppose pay. I think it is better he terminates that contract and moves to a better league or club. Besides, it was only last season and 3 seasons ago he didn't play in Belgium because he obviously went for money since Nigeria is not interested in him even if he scorces one million goals in a season. |

When your team plays badly, it has a way of rubbing off you in a -ve way. This doesn't give fans the license to start questioning his abilities, this is someone Wenger has trusted to play in games against the top 6 oppositions in the league. Singling him out for criticism is unfair, especially in a team where every other player were piss poor. There is nothing wrong with Iwobi, he was just having a bad game today, he practically dominated in a game against ManUtd earlier. |

I don't think Kanu Nwankwo deserved to win the 1999 APOTY award. Can someone tell me why he deserved it? Neither do I think Emmanuel Amuneke deserved to win the 1994 APOTY award. Does he? Okocha is not different from a comedian. Never serious and doesn't deserve any APOTY. |

goldfish80:their last EPL game? The one that ended 1-0 and Ozil was the scorer of the lone goal? If it is the Newcastle game you are speaking of, I regret to inform you that Iwobi started that game and played 70 minutes of it. Better apologise for this blunder. |

junnyjake: Which patient? Somebody scored double digit goals for two season yet he only had one or two caps for the national team. What do you expect? Clubs wants to get back their investment and they believe if you are z national team player you stock will rise but he wasn't getting the nod hence the need to make haste while the sun shine. Martins also did all he could to play for the SE. It was for that reason he left the big money in Russia to play in Levante but he was still ignored despite his performance in the la liga. My guy, he ran for his dare life after he saw hand written on the wall. |

junnyjake: Simon Moses singlehandedly helped Gent to win their first ever league title. So tey he won 5 - 8 MOTM. Eziekel was also influential to Standard Liege's qualifying for the champions league. He scored the fasted goals of the sesson or in the Belgium pro league. |

Loogan: Your write up is supposed to be in reference to my post, which is essentially about KC in Leicester city. However, you moved away from the main subject to carry out a number of negatively prejudiced presumptions that have no substance what so ever. So let’s break it down as if we are in the classroom and a misguided student is leading the classroom astray. Consider the absurdity of the presumption you have make that I holistically specially undermine Nigerian players and continuously do so is implied in your rhetoric. First counter question, when and where please state. I have been advocating, advising and enabling Black African origin including Nigerian players in English football for donkey years. So that is total balderdash. But I will stick with recent times, I have been advocating for into the English EPL and or as quality players that can add quality to the SE, such as Mba, Etebo and highlighted as well advocated the qualities of Ighalo, Enyeama, Ighalo, Obagoal, Joel, Ambrose, Aluko, Mikel and many others are these players from India and China . So that makes your unfounded prejudiced proposition nonsensical. What is apparent is that your write is not about the main subject of my post but your negative misguided impression about me. I have definitely and continuously highlighted Nigerian origin players that in my opinion can still cut it and could bring additional quality to the SE. I am involved with English football primarily, so I have in depth specialist knowledge. If that is your definition of bias its wrong. There are two main groups with regard to KC on this thread, the emotive, sentimental he can do no wrong group and the constructive realist group that says he needs to up his game. Excellence is achieved from hard work, realism and constructive criticism. You seem not to understand basic subtlety and figurative speech, “you are only as good as your last game”. This implies that each game either pulls you up or pulls you down and football has always been a short-term profession, as a result time is something you do not get a lot of. Then the next thing you did was to comment on things you really have no idea about but rely on hearsay and what you read in the papers. KC was considered by a number of different clubs true, but Leicester was the only club willing to accept the terms City offered irrespective of how unreasonable they were. You may call it desperation or whatever on the part of Leicester and also on the part of KC, who knew he wasn’t going to get game time in City. You talked about one of the biggest scams and financial flops in English football Andy Carroll. The manager of Liverpool Kenny Dalglish had an interest in the agency that negotiated the deal Andy in turn sacked his legal agent two weeks before the transfer was made. In football actions speak louder than words, I have known too many managers to learn this very valuable lesson. Marco is simply speaking up a player he has no time for and does not rate and needs to still make some money on. And you misguidedly use that as a basis to say success is quality. Indeed, he may be but with his attitude and approach I would say the EPL is not for him. Finally, in your comparison to players playing in the lower tier, I will say it’s better to be an outstanding player in a lower tier of the league than a dead one that doesn’t even warm the bench in a higher tier of the league. Meanwhile the gap is not as huge as you may think Bristol city have just proved that in the FA cup after beating Man U. Finally, finally i talked about the rise of Demerai Grey from bench warmer to first man on the team sheet and that was from initial training not games. You cannot accuse both Managers of bias that's simply not being true. I will not bother talking about Danny Ings who I see almost day to day and the others you mention. You need to move away from the emotive to the objective, upgrade and download increase your knowledge base learn from those who are informed on this forum. And don't just be a fan that thinks the loudest shout wins the game. 1 Like |
