Actually, Ndidi at 21 is better than Matic at 29. Take it or leave it!

Matic has slowed down tremendously, coupled with his natural lack of pace. This is not the Nemanja Matic of 3 or 4 years ago.

first of vitesse is to chelsea what royal antwerp is to man u ie a feeder club
also ballack,lampard and deco were running chelsea's midfield at the time so there was no way a young matic was ever going to just stroll into that midfield
also isn't ur argument about ndidi currently better than matic?
as per underrating our players well so many ppl are falling into the trap that the english just got out off
our players are too inconsistent.

Mujtahida:

Why are you fond of breaking up play? So you don't think that there's a historical side to 2018 WC and 2019 Afcon. Did these two tournaments start or will get started in 2018 and 2019? Allow people yarn abeg. If you don't enjoy the history lessons, skip it. That's your liberty. You can't put a gag on others and say this is the limit of what they can discuss particularly since they are still within the confines of Nigerian football.

when I no be Wilfred Ndidi

tbaba1234:


I read a report today about Barca chasing Ndidi in the summer. It might be nothing but clubs are certainly watching.

If an English player is posting the kind of numbers, Ndidi is at the moment, the hype will be crazy.

agents put out silly stories in the papers evry once in a while to generate interest in their clients(All agents do this) and to drive their wages up.
that's the difference,he ain't english so why should he be hyped up?
kimmich and sule put in similar numbers in germany and don't get hyped
stats are just used to track fitness by serious coaches
only jokers take them serious

MetalJigsaw:

Hahahaha hahahaha. Your tackling stats here na die

yea matic of 3 to 4years ago is better than indidi at 21

LZAA:

"Ndidi is producing numbers close to Kante's league winning season with Leicester and he is still young"
see what i am saying
u are still holding on to stats
a player in ndidi's role is never ever defined by just stats

Please define what they are held by?

It has to something.. Their passing ability, their goalscoring, their defending... each of these things are backed up by stats. Yes, it might not tell the full story but it is certainly more objective than feelings.

That means, we do not know the real interests until the summer. The rest is transfer rumor..

Toyin Ibitoye confirms Ebuehi's Availability

That I would agree. That version of Matic was a beast. Sentenced John Obi Mikel to a semi retirement on da bench

Great news. I would really wanna see him in action against both Poland and Serbia.

yet top teams are mentioning jorginho while few are looking at ndidi
see what i said about stats
they never tell the whole story
stats are deceptive
klopp sounded like a clown after reeling off stats but anyone who watched dt match knows liverpool were well beaten

barcelona are mentioning indidi its agents but... Jorginho is not agents
chai..! Double standard

andrew444:


Bros ndidi is 21 and matic is 29,at 21 matic was at a Slovakia club before Chelsea got him,he managed only 2 appearance,he was used in a swap deal plus 25 million to get David Luis from benfica,ndidi is among the top 5 or 10 most valuable player in Africa and the most valuable young player in africa,ndidi is valuable than frank kessie of ac millan,that will say a lot about him

That's the problem with majority of us here - twisting. The Argument initially was Ndidi is better than Matic at the moment.

Is Ndidi better than Matic at the moment for real?! Maidaboi chipped in Age simply to get a cheap Point.

Who dey compare ndidi and matic ? I am just making an example for you not to compare a 21 year old kid to a 29 year old matic.

Dude.... did you read the previous Pages?! Ndidi is rated as a better Player than Matic at the moment which I objected!

Ndidi is not better than matic o,matic is already a world class player and ndidi is not there yet

and wia did i say so
mino raiola did the same with most of his players as with jorge mendes

At the moment, on form, Ndidi is as good as any DM out there, including Matic.

Matic can be grouped as 'world class' based on previous achievements and Ndidi has not yet gained that level of acclaim and is still developing as a player.

no football manager buys players by stats
none
they look at ur ability and what u add to the team
lemme give u an example
if cr7 was wanted by psg for example and dy decided to use his stats for the first hallf of this season as d deciding factor,would dy have bought him?

maidaboi:
indidi at 21 is better than matic at 21 and 29 EOD

well players develop at different rates
harry kane had tons of loan spells before he became a global star
jamie vardy until very recently was playing non league footie
again wasnt ur argument that ndidi is CURRENTLY better than matic

maidaboi:
may be somebody score the 13 goals and we mistake it for musa since he has only score 2 goals

No, he scored against Mali at Afcon l think.

That is untrue. Ronaldo is known globally, buying Ronaldo is completely different from buying a prospect.

Scouts analyze every part of a player's game including their stats before making recommendations.

So you think Barca cannot chase Ndidi? Matic is just a bigger and more popular player. Ndidi at 21 is certainly a better defensive midfielder than Matic is, except in making timely passes like someone said earlier.

andrew444:


Ndidi is not better than matic o,matic is already a world class player and ndidi is not there yet

Ndidi can be reffered to as a world class midfielder already.

I agree with your stance in this discuss. Ndidi still has a lot to learn, long pass accuracy, fast transitions, shot accuracy.... Do you know he is the worst players in terms of shooting accuracy in the EPL... the guy who has taken the highest number of shots without scoring... Make we calm down for the hype abeg... Ndidi still de grow and even on present form cannot and will not bench matic.

Daejoyoung:

Ndidi can be reffered to as a world class midfielder already.

Almost a worldclass player,don't call him that yet okay,but he is almost there

Daejoyoung:

l agree with that guy, Ndidi is currently ahead in that role presently.

Alright Sir!

I beg to disagree Sir. Ndidi is not as good as fernandinho, Fred, jorginho, casemerio, busquets, Gabi, Can, vidal, khedira... I can keep naming them... Put him in an attacking team and he's deficiencies will show.. He has a lot to learn.
