Loogan:Nice points. And the fact that he has to sacrifice his favourite roles has deprived him of individual awards and adequate involvement in goal scoring at his club. Thus, depriving him of some respects as a qualitative attacker . Its a thing of concern for me. |

Lolz, sometimes I feel some people just criticize a player, so they can gain attention.. OK oh, attention gotten.. Zappacosta now better than moses ehn, lolz. Isorai.. Moses was injured for more than a month, and Chelsea lost about 3 games, even got a whooping for Roma... Who was playing then?, was it Moses's ghost?.. Conte even had to start playing aspilicueta as a wing back at some point, because zappacosata was not performing up to moses's level, and immediately Moses came back, they quickly put him back into the fray of things, and guess what?, his first start, he got an assist, and since then Chelsea has not lost a game.. Agree yesterday,, he was not at his usual best, he set the standard for himself, so we expect him to perform to that standard at all times, but he didn't yesterday, and I dare say it's because he was fatigue, it's always easy to know when moses is fatigue, it you follow him, few days rest, and he is back to his energic self.. See ehnn , we know wetin Una dey find, but truth is, moses go continue to bench zappascosta, because, moses is class, and class will always surpass form.. Btw, shey Leicester city don sign new midfielder , silva ehn, I dey wait for Una, very soon , na ndidi matter Una go dey use nose follow nyash, dey try detect any fowl smell.. We dey kampe , dey wait Una.. Touch not my players, And do my eagle no harm.. Hehehe 9 Likes |

Bros, sometimes you should just ignore these ignorant posters. I have come to realize that most people who post here do not even watch the games they post about, believe it or not. I watched Arsenal v Chelsea yesterday, and VicMo didn't have a great game due to fatigue but he wasn't horrible. Take for instance, the two goals Arsenal scored yesterday (were created from) came from Zappacosta's wing; yet some folks are here promoting him because they read the craps posted by some dumb folks in the media with their own individual agendas! Listen, VicMo is going to hold onto his position for a very long time if Zappacosta is his biggest threat at Chelsea. The two are simply not in the same class. You gotta be blind not to notice that and Antonio Conte is definitely not blind. VicMo was one of Chelsea's best players last season and he has remained one of their best player this season. Check out Chelsea's results when Moses is out (either with injuries or on suspension). Trust me, Antonio Conte knows his values to the team. I advise folks to ignore the BS the English media tend to post about African players in general and Nigerian players in particular. They all have their agendas. O pari Kog45: 4 Likes 1 Share |

MetalJigsaw:I don't like it to because sincerely he's better than Willian Attacking wise, his penetration, skill creativity is something to behold in a GWG shirt. But as time goes on his goal tally will increase with more game time and confidence. |

Liamm: Bro, all you've said is true. In fact, I have previously mentioned his crossing ability and end-product as his main weaknesses. I also opined that it wouldn't be a bad idea to start set-piece training to add to his abilities. However, playing consistently for long stretches with very few days for rest can be very tiresome. That not withstanding, I believe that with costa's new found form, Moses has to adapt and improve. I believe in him; there's still time between now and June. So, it's too early to condemn him 1 Like |

darkelf:I'm worried because most of our players arent getting enough playing time in their respective clubs. The few ones wey manage see ball play com dey f*ck up on top their performance. This is world cup year and we want our best legs in Russia. If by april/may we are still going back and forth over players being in form and players being afforded playing time, i'm afraid I may have to concede group stage elimination even before the ball is first kicked when we play croatia. Zapa is in form and if he continues in that way; his goals, assists, dribbles, lets just say with his improved overall impact, Moses will begin to see the bench more often than not. |

Goke7: There are some people that dont shift grounds becuase of their strong conviction on matters based on verifiable facts, I dont play to the gallery. Moses has never been a fantastic player even when he got loaned over and over again to different clubs ,all to no avail. I have hammered on this guy for sometime now and everything I have pointed out in him can be reckoned. Moses has finished developing , he is not an 18 years old. At Chelsea he plays with caution but whenever he plays for Nigeria he throws caution to the wind and do what ever that comes to his mind to the detriment of the team and that to me is NOT ACCEPTABLE. Dont make this look like Moses was one of the best players in EPL last season because he is not up there. Dude is just a notch up ahead Moses Simon because of goals. He has been dribbling in the EPL for years but he has not gotten anywhere with it. Some people even said he is our best player, now that set off the rage in me. |

I can almost respect a man if he looks me in the eyes and insult me that run to the corner like a little girl to throw tantrums. We must not all agree but try and respect other people. If your feelings is hurt because Moses is being dissected then suck it up like a man and come up with better argument. |

krattoss: That you don't think that a player is exceptional doesn't equate to hatred for that player. This ad-hominem reaction to people who hold different opinions based on their own assessment doesn't make your proposition superior, it only shifts focus from the argument. If you think he is wrong, state the reasons why. "u hate the dude" doesn't address the points he raised |

safarigirl: Coaches in international competitions of this magnitude are not usually comfortable with making changes to the starting line up in the defense and midfield especially if the setup worked in the immediate previous game. Remember one of the rules of coaching is 'you don't change a winning team'. True that no two oppositions are same just also like no two midfield players could be the same. Facing an opposition with a different style of play from the previous may just involve the coach passing some vital tactical instructions on how to approach this game and also setting up the players a little differently without necessarily altering the starting line up. A midfielder of a particular desirable quality may be brought in later in the game depending on how the game is progressing to either choke up the midfield and slow down the opponent or add more mobility to create more chances. As I said before, depending on how the game is progressing. |
