Etebo is injured?

I'm afraid yes... According to Brila FM this morning

asha80:
it is a bit strange

Kog45:
Even in Nigeria name like Habib Okafor is strange.

That you both haven't seen or heard of names like this doesn't make it strange.

Did Amokachi not married a Muslim woman from Tunisia? what are the kids names?
Nazim Amokachi, Kalim Amokachi.

You go to a country where a particular religion is major, marry there, then expect the names of the children to be different?

I have seen many names like this so its not strange to me or you believe we don't have igbo Muslims in Nigeria even living in the east?

Oga o, wetin come injure am na?

they are but not more than 5% of the population..also amokachi isnt igbo but idoma

This my comment might sound strange or odd. It is Not likely that all players we are banking on will be fit for Russia. I don't pray so though.

we should brace up for any eventuality after all neymar,harry kane,sigurdson and sergio busquets all important guys for their nations are injured at the moment.

DrKlever:
Is Gabriel Jesus the tap in merchant and Mbapp who's all pace and skill but no football IQ better than Iheancho on present form they are just fortunate to be selected to play. they ain't better than Nacho. simple!

Gabriel Jesus and Mbappe are for now far ahead of Kelechi.

daveP:
I guess I'm about to enjoy this discussion.... lol



did you take note that all the comparison you did was just about scoring, scoring, and just scoring

So cos Mbappe scored and Ndidi didn't, then that was what made him better than Ndidi. Guy like seriously....



Won't you ask yourself some questions before you wrongly jump into the that ship next time?


So cos the media didn't make his performance known to the while world, then he isn't worthy of a mention? Say otherwise cos that's what you're Tryna infer.


Keep hoping on Mbappe you hear...


Wetin concern me with Nacho. You brought in Mbappe to this issue, but I won't grant you the chance to add Nacho just to make two points.



They don't play the same position pls.



Goan get a 90mins clip of that match and come back and tell me what you saw.


Final Question... since his move to PSG, why hasn't he replicated the form he had for Monaco?


I don't ask cos I want to downgrade. I ask cos I need a different perspective from the one I hold.



The stint Ndidi currently have started from that season. Kante currently, the one he replaced is a shadow of his Leicester self.


A Dmf Vs A forward.... Comparing an Apple to A citrus fruit in taste and look..... interesting.


Anything to just make our own look Asif they are all into circus performances..

I'm not the one who made the comparison. Check the post I replied.
So making the ucl team of the tournament in his first full season isn't a big deal?
Winning golden boy isn't a big deal?
Winning young player of the year has to do with scoring?
He isn't having a good season yet he's scored 13 in 21 league games and 19 for season?

Why didn't you ask the guy who brought Ndidi to the argument?. Abeg I no want argue this matter again. Facts are Facts.

asha80:
they are but not more than 5% of the population..also amokachi isnt igbo but idoma

you don't mean it....I thought he was ibo

From yesterday's game, if Courtois was a Nigerian, we would have demanded for him to be dropped. Funny, how we write off our keepers with just a little blunder.

edi287:

Mbappe football IQ is lower than Nacho?? Ok oo.

Gabriel Jesus individual award (1)

Mbappe individual award (2)

Kelechi Iheanacho individual award (3)


After looking at their stats, you will discover their low Football IQ won dem individual award in top leagues.

What says Kelechi Iheanacho?

Yes, he is good but he's not yet to these boys level.

Gabriel Jesus dey bench Firnamo for Brazilian national team. E easy.

Humility017:

you don't mean it....I thought he was ibo

people often mistaken idoma names for igbo names because at first sound or look it sounds igbo eg okpanachi

asha80:

And is 5% strange? Idoma or not, you got my drift.

forgiveness:



The three goals weren't as a result of Barcelona's brilliant attack but errors on Chelsea's part and useless keeper.

Even at 2 goals up, Barcelona's coach wasn't comfortable with the way Chelsea dominated the game hence the need to remove Inesta and Debele for more defensive minded players.

Barcelona could not soak any pressure, they were exposed but thanks to Chelsea's impotency and in decisions in front of goal.


What about the one Moses Commot Alba for road enter box 18 in the first half but could not place the right pass? He was free to shoot the ball directly at the post or watch the movement of Williams but he passed the ball their defenders.

In the second half, Moses was in the same position Messi scored after he commot Alba again but instead of mamaring a shot, he passed the ball to Barcelona.

What about the one Kante went through the whole Barcelona's defence and had only the keeper to beat but played the ball across the post? Remember, he was suppose to leave the ball for Marcos who was in the best position to shoot.

What about Marcos three chances? The blocked shot inside the post after Barcelona yanch open, the one Debele removed from his leg and the one he was pushed at the back? Marcos shot was blocked because he was in experience to have shown the blocker the direction of his shoot. On a good day, Giroud or an experienced player will score. He was too slow in the one Debele removed from his leg. On a good day, a good player will make Debele kick his leg and win a penalty. The third one was a pure penalty. Go and watch the replay. Pique hands were on his back, it was a push. Penalty.


What about, the one Williams open the defence but Hazard miss judged the pass and went other way? You know see that one?

What about the one Hazard was alone in the position Messi scored, but instead of him to shoot, he passed to an empty space?

Didn't you see all those moment that made Barcelona fans dey fear, wey the areana was like a graveyard?

I have seen that you watch football as a typical Chelsea fan, no need replying any further

The gospel truth, we just hope that the major backbones don't get injured.

EPL fan boys how far?

What do you have to say about Football.....extremely good football existing outside England?

What do you have to say about kick & follow, brute, rush rush, power, and 'anywhere belle face' football?

What do you have to say about Spanish teams dominating and winning the UCL 8 times in 18 years since 2000s?

What do you have to say about having an all spanish finals 4 times out of those years?

what do you have to say concerning spanish teams dominating the Europa leagues all those years too?

Or would you say that the second top half of the EPL cant stand toe -to- toe with their spanish counterpath?


when we tell you that football doesnt start and end in England , you lots wont hear...SMH

When we tell you to remove your tongues from the English ass, you lots wont hear


Ever wondered why no English descent or bred players never survived in other leagues?

the answer is simple....The English dont know how to play football....Their football orientation is wack therefore it cannot survived outside England.

Take Raheem Sterling to Spain, Germany, Italy and watch him flop

take Harry Kane to Spain, Germany, Italy, France and Portugal and watch him become a shadow of himself....this is not me being bais, rather the results are there for all to see...from Beckam, to others in the time past,....no English player ever succeeded outside England....FACT!!! Outsiders succed in England but not English players succeeding in other countries. Yet some English fan boys wants me to take football in England serious..... tufiaka....that aint happenning

For so long, Lampard was lured out to other leagues, He refused to go..., ofcourse he couldnt because he then what awaited him


i have said it before and i will keep saying it.......the only reason why top English teams beat top teams from the backwater leagues is POWER & PACE!

With power & pace they bulldozed their way through those poor teams from the 'backwater leagues' while feeling 'funky' like they have arrived... But when they meet their mates, the top teams of the other 5 top tier leagues then they crumble like a pack of cards.

Do you know why they crumble?


They crumble because they met their match in Power & Pace but they fall short of TECHNICALITY, INTELLIGENCE, FOOTBALL SENSE

Yes!....English football lacks technicality, inteligence and football sense. They have no football sense whatsoever, thats why they play kick and follow football, thats why they play 'anywhere belle face' football.

Presently only Pep is playing football in England and the difference is clear. They say la liga is a two horse race yet they cant even beat the others left behind by Madrid & Barca. ...Doesnt tell you that if all English teams were in the Laliga, they will all be playing catch up too?

They say Bayern munich cannot win premeirship with 5 matches to spare,...the same Pep who was in charge of Bayern then is in charge of Man city today, see how all other premiership teams are gasping at straws.

They say la liga is boring but the EPL is the most competetive, the most exciting interesting, bla bla bla.... and i ask, why wont it seem interesting when 19 average teams slugging it out in mediocrity week in week out with the ever reliable English press acting as an event ORATOR praising them to high heavens, decieving them, keeping them perpetually disillusioned.

I repaet, English football in its original terms is CRAP!

The EPL is what it is today because of the Foreigners in it,... Take the Foreigners out of it and it will become like ukrainian league or the Turkish league at best

Sir i think there are things we don't need to argue on.

I'm not disputing the fact that we have Muslim Igbo but still strange to some people to hear Akeem Okechukwu,lateef Chukwudi,Razak Orji,so hearing Habib Okafor drew my curiosity.

And i will not deceive you have never encounter an Igbo man with Muslim name.

Oga i have followed Football for over 25 years now, dont let me get started on ENglish players.....Owen Hargreaves case is in Isolation... let me just put him to rest.

i repeat ...English born & bred players are flops outside England.... not just Flops but big time error and Mistakes...ask those who bought them.

i asked a question and you a struggling to provide me names. Would you struggle to provide me names of Brazilians, Argentines, Spanish, Germans, Italians, French, Africans, or other Eastern Europeans who succeeded outside their countries?

If english football,style, tactics and orientation was that great ...shouldnt their export be dominating world football anywhere they go?

Will you have to scratch your head, think hard, or use google inorder to give me names of English export who succeeded outside England?

Baba i can never take English football serios.


Sometimes when i read komekn and forgiveness go on and on about how we should populate the SE with English groomed players [who majorly havent achieved anything in their careers].. i simply shake my head and chuckle

its like these ones are young men who started watching football yesterday.... everyday championship this, championship that ...

kai! this guy don insult our intelligence, SE and Nigeria as a whole sha

I think Chelsea was better yesterday than they were in the 1st leg. Every time Willian or Hazard were on the ball it looked like something might happen but yet again Barcelona gave more reasons why they might have the best defense in Europe with yet another clean sheet. The fact is that Barca let them have more of the ball and broke on the counter attack. Messi was the difference as always and people should relax on Courtois because the point is that nobody expected Messi to take that shot on the first goal. I think the sale of Diego Costa was the worst decision that the blues have made in a long time and it is going to affect them even into next season.

Exactly.... facts are facts, but would we have them without the media compiling?
Which means we are at the mercy of the same media, cos they can either be over looking or selective.


This same media that produces the facts are the ones saying Ndidi is the best in Europe, second to none, but we quickly rushed into the train to wanna prove otherwise..... quite revealing to say the least. Very revealing....


Facts are Facts truly....


These guys are all club form and shadows(nonreplicant) for national team.


Nacho have played more games for national, same for Ndidi, and they've performed well.



So I join the school of thought of thegoodjoe and tbaba1234 that club form is not directly proportional or equal to national team form.... and that has always had Nigeria as its top case study. I rest my case(Even if I've been on that same school of thought since... I'm joining again)


(exhales)

Icon79:
Good point. Ndidi still needs to improve in many areas, no doubt. But my argument is not to expect him to become world class in every area of the game before we can rate him. If that's the standard then only Leo Messi would quality


O pari

If only they talk just exactly the way you just did with this post, no one would want counter.... They talk Asif he can't get there or no matte TV how hard he tries, he can't reach that status. And that's my problem with Nigerians.

But when did he get injured tho? I saw him take a small knock in the game against Barca but that was nothing major
