forgiveness: Bros I don't really know the arguement,yes Gabriel Jesus and mbappe is better than iheanacho,but benching firminho is no big deal,is it because he plays for Liverpool?firminho is an average striker okay,Brazil strikers are average,so please exclude that,the way you mention firminho make it seems he is a Luis Suarez,firminho is not even in the same class as benzema,Brazil has no good striker that's why Jesus will always start |

They are far ahead of him because they have had more opportunities to play. Do you know that playing week in week out creates confidence and helps you improve? Put KC at a top top team like PSG and/or ManCity, and let him play week in week out then see whether Gabby or Mbappe would be better. And I will keep repeating this message until I can knock it into the thick heads of the folks in this forum: our players lack the pedigree of an average Euro or Latin American player; hence they are often neglected and overlooked. And sometimes, racism (or nationalism) also comes into the equation! O pari forgiveness: 2 Likes |

Well, them that are in the know are speaking out and speaking wisdom: Conte, Courtois, Alonso know why Barca beat Chelsea: Messi “ “Tonight (and) in the two legs, Lionel Messi made the difference,” Conte said. “We are talking about the best player in the world.” When asked about Messi, Marcos Alonso has only one work to say: In a word, he was incredible.

Icon79: do you just fly into a top team? Let's take Mbappe for example. He was constantly on the bench at Monaco, even when people called him the new Henry, Jardim still kept him on the bench but each time he played you could see the quality and when he was drafted into the first team he kept on performing against every single team he faced. Nobody is just going to hand you a spot in a top team, you work for it and you earn it. How has Iheanacho earned a move to PSG as a starter? Or you think sentiments will make PSG buy him? No one here has a thick skull except you, because I don't know why you think PSG will just come and sign him because he is Nigerian 1 Like |

andrew444: so your only reason is that he hasn't scored enough goals? How many has Benzema scored? Morata? Who else? Before you give me the excuse that Benzema plays with Ronaldo, Firminho has to play for Salah yet he scores too and you called him an 'average' striker not even a 'good' striker. Come on! |

Lionel Messi: Cristiano Ronaldo will never match Barcelona star due to one thing - pundit But Manchester United legend Ferdinand believes Messi stands above Ronaldo in one aspect of his game. “I think him and Cristiano Ronaldo are the best players,” Ferdinand said on BT Sport. “The difference between the both of them is that Cristiano goes out there and his mindset is ‘give me the ball in the areas where I can score a goal’. “He’s an out-and-out goalscorer. Cristiano Ronaldo isn’t bothered about being on the halfway line playing at the rhythm of the game, he wants to be at the cutting knife-edge of the game. “Whereas Messi, you sometimes see him in the defensive midfielder position picking up the ball, playing one-twos, just playing with the opposition. “He’s involved in the rhythm of the game constantly and that’s the difference between the two players.” Source: https://www.express.co.uk/sport/football/931979/Lionel-Messi-Cristiano-Ronaldo-Barcelona-news-Real-Madrid-Champions-League-Chelsea 'nuff said!

Mickael2: Bros no call morata abeg,dat 1 na striker ? so because someone played for Madrid?friminho is not a world class striker and you know it,Epl fan boys will always side their players,firminho is having his best season does that make him a world class player? It seems you Epl fan boys don't know the meaning of world class,maybe any player that normally scores 15 goals is world class right ? What are you saying ? Even injury prone Daniel Sturridge has more minute goal ratio than firminho,have you forgotten firminho is an attacking mieldfielder or a winger before klopp convert him ? Benzema play with Ronaldo and so ?benzema is the player giving Ronaldo more goal assist even than Marcelo?how many assist did Ronaldo give to benzema ? What are you saying ? 1 Like |

Strange is something not in the norm. It's in the norm for a foreigner married to their citizens to have children with the home country names especially in a religious country. Even Okocha was given a Muslim name when he played in Turkey then. Okafor himself might have turned Muslim in Tunisia so it's not strange. It would be strange if the guy was to bear Muslim name as his surname when his dad is Nigerian and from the East. asha80: |

andrew444: how many assists has Firminho given Salah? Go and count it and check if it isn't more than Benzema to Ronaldo, yet Firminho has scored more than Benzema. Did I ever imply that Firminho is world class? The keyword here has been 'average' all along. Firminho is not average by any stretch of the imagination, because if he is average I wonder what Lukaku is. By the way of course Sturridge would have a better minute to goals ratio because he has played a lesser number of games |

What kind of amnesia is this? Have you so quickly forgotten that Kelechi did exactly the same thing at ManCity? He was constantly on the bench, but eeach time he played you could see the quality and when he was drafted into the first team he kept on performing against every single team he faced. See? I have just copied your exact words and it fits like a glove on Kelechi's ManCity performance! Now ask yourself why Kelechi ended up at Leicester City's bench while Mbappe got a promotion to PSG. Once you solve that riddle then maybe .... just maybe you can understand where I am coming from. O pari Mickael2: 3 Likes |

Mickael2: Firminho is not a world class striker,if he is not world class then he is average or is there another word I can use ?the same lukaku has 99 premier league goals in just few years,the same lukaku has about 180 career goals at the age of 24,the same lukaku scored 29 premier league goals for an average Everton team last season,so what are you saying ? Firminho and lukaku are average players but they are doing well for them self. Mind you I am a die hard Barcelona fan,check all my post on nairaland of you doubt me ,thank you Lukaku 43 games so far this season and 24 goals Firminho 41 games and 22 goals,is the stats not Almost the same ? |

Kog45:bearing Habib doesn't make the guy a Muslim. His mum is most likely Tunisian, he was born in Tunisia, so, Habib seems a fitting name. Do not look at the kid as an Igbo man in the conventional sense. He is a mixture of races and cultures, so, his identity should reflect that mix, rather than a one-sidedness. |

somehow: There are Igbo muslims even though they are a minority. It is not beyond the realm of possibility especially if the man has lived in North Africa for a long time. Also bearing the name habib, does not mean he is a muslim. Habib is first and foremost an arabic name. Arabic non-muslims bear arabic names too. 2 Likes |

Icon79 and co supporters of our super eagles, the WorldCup is a couple months away, all these arguements about Kelechi Iheanacho will end after June, the guy is now finally getting his groove on. He is about to take Leicester city on a good run, even with that these folks that we need to ban on this thread will still say a french citizen, who was being hailed by the french press is better, will still say he is not good enough. Abeg lets focus on the next friendlies and analyze them, plus the friendlies of countries in our group, that was what this thread was about before all this new derailers and inferiority complexed "secret admirers" of the super eagles completely derail the thread abeg. No offence but if you want to praise foreign players go to their National websites and praise them, enough of this them better pass us syndrome. 8 Likes |
