Ndidi:

eterisan:
moses is having a flat performance... He is just there.... Nothing to talk about... Nothing to criticise

I believe in comparison KC is having a storming game the Chelsea defenders are being terrorised and totally bullied by him.

tbaba1234:


Take away the assist and he was just good.. Willian had a better game

you can't take away the assist, that changed the game... Matic did it yesterday, Kante today, casemiero does it all the time.. That is the bar for ndidi to aim...

kc did he's best, never really had any chances....

tbaba1234:

It was the assist of Kante that makes the difference for Chelsea tonight, Ndidi tackles can not Save Leicester team tonight

Personally ,Ndidi is a kind of player that pay full attention to coach instructions. Whereby he stood out with his role as DM. Which make me the best DM in Leicester n in Epl.

He just need to do more in area of accurate shooting and once a while orchestrate offensive movements. I'm very sure he will get there very soon with offensive coach.

Agreed!

It was a bad GK error, a misjudged cross, on another day, it is a routine catch. Let us not overplay it. Good assist but Kante does not have that many and he is not on the level of Casemiro on that count.

Ndidi might never be a creative player, he does not have to be...He is already a cracking player as it is..

eterisan:
yes boss.... You know a real top top quality player can take a game by the scruff of the neck and change it... A moment of magic or brilliance... The guy was everywhere..... Ndidi doesn't have that in his locker yet.. That wow moment.... Heart skipping move that can turn a game on his head. .... Let's say Nigeria is in dire need of a goal...who do we look to for inspiration... Who makes something happen.... Not ndidi for me.... This is the point I have been hammering. ..... Tackling alone isn't enough to break the ceiling into real top top quality. . Superstar...... He is on the rise though. . Great performance from ndidi tonight.... Better days ahead....

they don't play same position

well said.... Gbam

We are too biased as individuals when it comes to Naija players. Iheanacho has a little bit of fault in that Chelsea's first goal. Out of 100% he'd get 25, cos he put the ball behind Mahrez and DID NOT open up as expected for Mahrez to give him a pass, thus making Mahrez attempt to dribble and create more space. Mahrez also has 60% fault, Ndidi has 5 just for not fouling and Morgan has 10 for not anticipating to block that Willians pass. Gosh!!! This f%*jing Iheanacho's worship has gotta stop, he ain't the only bloody player for crying out loud. Jeeezzz! I praise him when he does well, and I point his flaws when he under performs. Did he play badly today? Hell naw. He was very good bar that chelseas goal. He caused the MFs of chelsea to foul him a lot. He had a good game. But we should say the truth when it comes to some things. Had it been that roles were switched and Mahrez gave the bad pass to Iheanacho and Iheanacho was the one that lost the ball, most of the people saying Mahrez is wholly at fault now would still say Mahrez is at fault citing the fact that why would he pass that kinda ball to Iheanacho - thus making Iheanacho to adjust to the pass. Habaaaaa. Abeg naaaauuuu, make we de talk truth. I watched the game from beginning till end.

A few savage comments tho like....

i think Liverpool needs Ndidi more than he needs them ... Mourinho should stay away

kingphilip:

you don't mean it.... Do you.... I mean really.... Who replaced Kante at Leicester..... Who shields the Chelsea defence.... Is. . . . . . fabregas...... Oga philip serious for once na.... Kante is like upgraded version of ndidi... Better dribbler, better reading of game, better passer... And can still tackle if he's interested... If I were ndidi I will look up to Kante and model my game after him

That is why he is among the top players but he really was not that great before it.

What Ndidi did today is the undervalued and often overlooked parts of football.. Those tackles are the difference between 2:1, 3:1 and 4:1

eterisan:

lol l believe you expect too much from Ndidi, l understand where you are coming from though, but l am like Mourinho in this regard. If a player can play a role perfectly, then l am willing to overlook his shortcomings in roles that are not primarily his(If you grab what l mean). lf we have a Mickel and Joel obi in the GWG, then we may not need a very offensive Ndidi in midfield. Also Ndidi was involved in the assist for Leicester today, and also gave a timely pass to Vardy which was squandered.

I think, he should stay away from Mourinho.. He should move to Liverpool

Ndidi might never be a creative player, he does not have to be...He is already a cracking player as it is..

if he doesn't then he will just remain an above average player.... Just there.. Nothing to it.. . If you are satisfied with his performance... Then we shouldn't really be having this conversation..... Lol... I dream of ndidi been like a casemiero beast of a dm......

Makalele did not have to develop offensive qualities neither has Kante to be honest. I love his energetic runs though.

Oliseh: I made Eagles stronger by bringing Iwobi, Moses Simon


Former Super Eagles coach Sunday Oliseh has stated that the national team was weak until he introduced some young players into the squad after his appointment as coach in 2015.

Hale End Academy product Alex Iwobi was being groomed to play for Nigeria’s Olympic national team by Samson Siasia but was fast-tracked into the Super Eagles by Oliseh ahead of friendly matches against Cameroon and DR Congo despite the fact he was yet to debut for Arsenal’s first-team.
In addition, the likes of Moses Simon, Wilfred Ndidi, William Troost-Ekong, Abdullahi Shehu, and Kelechi Iheanacho made their international bows under Oliseh.

‘’One of the first things I did when I got the job was to bring a lot of young blood in because the team itself was already on the wane,’’ Oliseh said to ESPN.

‘’Players like [Alex] Iwobi, I brought into the team, I gave him his first call-up, and some others who had been sidetracked like Moses Simon.

“I brought them in and pushed them up.”
Oliseh stepped down as coach of the Super Eagles in February 2016, citing breach of contract by the Nigeria Football Federation.

I totally agree with you here.... Do you know why Mikel doesn't get the credit he deserves for all his years at Chelsea... Why his world class status is still debatable.... Because he has like 2 goals.... 5 assist in 10 plus years at Chelsea.... Please check d stats.... I am not very accurate here.... Pundits and fans always complained about Mikel giving sideways pass, keeping it simple and stuff... Mikel was a very good dm fr Chelsea, never flamboyant.... I want more from ndidi... He can be our superstar... And really put us on the world map

Bakayoko is just having a problem with his confidence and decision making. l see a good defensive midfielder in him if he can just work on those two vital areas.

Every errors leads to goals that's football, without error no goals, Now winner.

We know, we accept. Ndidi is very good at his role. I'm very sure you know his antecedent from Nathboys (pardon my spelling) to gent to Leicester. From CB to DM.
We have seen massive improvement of Ndidi and he still improving. Nobody is either castigating or making him bad. And we believe if he can add offensive to his game and he will become world best.

We all want world class players, we all want our players to be most sort after in the world, we all want our players to be most expensive player in the world.

Is it too much to ask for more attributes for Ndidi to become the so called world class?
Is it too much to let him know he can achieve those attributes with more training on offensive?

Ndidi can do it and become a world class if he works more on things we early said.

tackles don't win you championships, goals and assists do. Top players, win you championships, top players give goals and assists..... Sad but true..

If Vardy had converted that pass from Ndidi, perhaps there'd be less of an argument right now.

SADIQ with a glorious miss.

He does not necessarily has to be offensive to become world class. Ndidi was originally a Midfielder before he was converted to a CB and back to a midfielder.

Makalele did not have to score too many goals or give assists to be recognized as world class. Kante has not scored that many goals or given that many assists either.

Ndidi is already topping Europe with his ball-winning abilities. Take that attribute to a big club and it will translate to trophies. Certainly, he has things to improve upon but he is already improving, we can see it with every game.

Kante's tackles were critical to Leicester championship win.. Makalele tackles were critical to real madrid success..

What happened to Real Madrid when Makalele left and they could not find a replacement?

superbloke:

Exactly. But even if Vardy had converted it, l doubt it would have satisfied those wanting a more offensive Ndidi, they would still expect him to push forward more or to give more assists.
l believe Ndidi can add more of that to his game in Leicester though rather than becoming an all round Makelele, but still l'm happy that he does his primary assignment excellently at the moment. To me, he is also not bad offensively, moreso in today's game.

Lolz.... Baba ooooo oo.... This discuss wan enter another level now o. .... I see what you did there..... Oya na mek ndidi use he own win something fes na.... Besides Kante has always had assists and goals in his locker...as evident in his title, mvp winning season for Leicester as well as for Chelsea.....

For me it is not just the assist alone..... Didn't you see how Kante was ghosting past players, breaking the lines if you know what that means tactically..... He was everywhere..... He made things happen.... That is what we want from ndidi..... Do something, not tackle, pass then wait for next wave of attack against your team..... If he stays one more season he should move to a more attacking team abeg.....

Are you finished? Well, My friend.... Twist it all you want but the truth of the game remains that Nacho is not at fault for the goal... It is Mahrez. Commentator talk am. Many of us who saw the game affirm that too and only you and a few are trying to turn the truth on its head.... And hey! Nacho was in position... Go back and watch that moment... Where else did you want him to open up into?? Into the goalpost? Huh? Pesin wey dey on the shoulder of one of the last defenders sef...

Mahrez had so much time to decide... He even executed a dribble /skill move that moved his first marker out of the way and una dey talk say he didn't bring the ball under control enough. Sometimes I do wonder why people can watch the same game but just refuse to notice how things actually went. Smh....

I don't bloody care if you watched the game from the point when the players were coming down from the bus sef till the tunnel cam moments... But the truth remains... Nacho is not at fault for Mahrez's silly mistake. Period!

Talking of role reversals... Abeg haven't Nacho been at the end of bad passes himself at Leicester? Passes that sometimes he manages to bring under control and still find the right pass to make to make up for his team mate's error... So no dey overflog a slightly misplaced pass that still reached a teammate and the teammate had it under control and even had time enough to execute a skill move/dribble..... Before he then made the silly decision of running into trouble all by himself even after Nacho had positioned himself on the shoulder of the last defender staying onside.... Na wa.

Even Mahrez had one really bad pass today in extra time... You want the truth? I just ditched it out to you. De rien.
