Humility017:Pls what has been Etebo performance in eagles of recent? Ogu had two solid games against Algeria and Argentina, meaning Ogu is ahead but now a talented midfielder in Joel Obi is coming in and barely injury the guy is solid meaning any of Ogu,Etebo and Agu could be dropped if they don't measure up 3 Likes |

Claude Puel 'happy' with speculation surrounding Wilfred Ndidi's future 16:38, UK, Thursday 01 March 2018 Leicester boss Claude Puel is happy with recent speculation surrounding Wilfred Ndidi’s future because it shows the midfielder is performing well for his team. In recent weeks, Ndidi has been linked with a big-money summer move to Liverpool amid speculation Reds midfielder Emre Can could depart Anfield for Juventus when his contract expires at the end of the season. No player has made more successful tackles than Ndidi's 116 in the Premier League this season, and Puel says interest in the midfielder is a testament to how much he has come on since joining Leicester in a £15m deal from Belgian side Genk a little over a year ago. "We spoke about Wilfred, the other week it was about [Harry] Maguire and last week it was another. Every week it is a different player," Puel told reporters ahead of Saturday's visit of Bournemouth. "I think it is a good feeling - also because if there is speculation around a player I think all of this shows they have progressed in the team. Puel is delighted he can call upon the 14-cap Nigeria international "They [all] have to continue to work with us, and of course I am happy about [speculation regarding] Wilfred, Harry, Riyad [Mahrez], and Jamie [Vardy]. "I think it is also a good thing to have players of this quality in the interests of the team." Ndidi had a difficult job to emulate the success enjoyed by N'Golo Kante, who left the club for Chelsea six months before the Nigeria international joined and went on to win the Premier League for the second season in succession. Puel added: "I think since the beginning of the season Wilfred is perhaps the most important and most consistent player [for us] because he has played well [and] recovered a lot of balls. Ndidi's skillset is unique compared to Leicester's other players, according to Puel "Perhaps his last game [Leicester's 1-1 home draw with Stoke] - like his team-mates - he was not fantastic, but since the beginning of the season I think he has improved a lot. "He has continued to work with a very good spirit in training sessions but he is a valuable player for us because we don't have a lot of players with those attributes. He can recover a lot of balls he is strong in the duels and he plays it simple with good quality, and gives our play a good start." 3 Likes |

somehow:Yes but check out Nigeria midfield, Mikel,Ndidi, Onazi,Ogu,Etebo,Agu and now Joel Obi. Better for Shehu to concentrate on RB and my fear again is Rohr testing Brian and Aina at RB cos those guys too are solid RB. |

Kog45: I don't think our Midfielder option will be more than 5. 2 players are likely to get dropped from the players you mentioned. 3 Goalkeepers, 8 Defenders, 5 Midfielders and 7 Forwards |

Truidstar:Good if they come good in the friendlies and build on it then we all be happy. I'm a real fan of Akpeyi but after Argentina match i dropped my sentiment and face reality,hope to see him come good in the friendlies. I don't rate Ezenwa before but his performance against Angola changed my mind and hope to see him in friendlies. Oh Uzoho i think his Argentina performance still speak for him and hope he continue from there which would be great considering his age. The three are the solutions if they can do it but any flops my man it would be disastrous. |

safarigirl: I've noticed you always take opposing opinions too personal. I mentioned something I observed. Nobody is saying our attackers should also score 4 goals bit at least a goal or an assist every week isn't too much to ask. |

And he takes on a barca midfield having Busquets, Paulinho, and Iniesta towards the left.... Rakitic on the bench. Messi starts too upfront. This is the game Rohr will most definitely watch to see Etebo's current form and mentality against the big guns of world football... ![]() ![]() mazimee: 4 Likes |
