Don’t compare the great Pirlo . Pirlo walks on the pitch while his opponents runs still they don’t catch up with him .

Accurate passing .
Accurate set pieces
Accurate free kicks
And he doesn’t dribble . But with great technique that has compensated him for all that he doesn’t know how to do .

This comparison is wrong

We are in need of someone that link midfield with attack i.e creativity. We have Iheanacho who is one of the best finishers around. Creativity without Mikel is the main issue we have.
and Ighalo and ideye can both pass the ball better than the midfielders we currently have...?
Aside mikel....we can as well try iwobi there once more...he tried with his passes against the serbians...
the problem mainly was Ighalo positioning...and iwobi wasn't used to the role yet....
apart from iwobi....it won't be bad if someone like aluko can be tried....kelechi nwakali can come in after the world cup...

definetely not ideye and Ighalo...I don't see them as better passer of the ball....

For me, the right age for WC should be 24 and above, except for a special talent like Mbape. Any average player below 24 should be playing in U23 competitions, Team B, Olympics and stuffs like that. Check out d age bracket of d Brazilian team that beat Germany in their last friendly match, check out the age bracket of the Serbian team that just beat us, their age bracket is between 25-32 and that should be d right age for WC.


This is a very weak argument... There is no magical age for the WC... The best teams have a mixture of youth and experience. A 22 year old can be more influential to his team than a 29 year old. Joel Campbell was 22 in 2014 and he was costa rica's most influential player.. He is a good player, not necessarily exceptional.

The average age of the Ajax team that won the Champions cup was 23.

Serbia did not beat us because their age bracket is between 25-32... In another setting, that same Nigerian team can beat them.

I've already said I wanted a creative player. We are talking if we are to take a 3rd striker. Ideye is different to Nacho and Ighalo. He is a target man. Get hold up play, harrasses defenders. He wouldn't be a bad option.

We should also remember that Salah flopped in the same EPL with Chelsea the first time he came and you can't tell me Salah was better than Victor Moses then. Can you?



Salah didn't flop in his first season in the EPL

he was just not given enough game time...just like De Bruyne and Lukaku... Everybody knows that Mourinho isn't the type of coach that has patience with young players...

Alex Iwobi

Good performance from the Nigerian, one of his best for months. Played a big part in the first goal and set up the second and third. Unlucky not to score himself with a shot that was saved. 8

Consistency is the key.... Let him keep it up...

And regarding insults from arsenal fans,I just checked their social media pages now and there's a lot of praise for him...he even some MOTM nominations... I'm very sure arsenal fans don't hate him.. he just gets a lot of criticism cus of his poor performance sometimes.....

Simeone,Klopp and a younger Arsene Wenger know how to get the best out of young talents... That's why I want Ndidi at Liverpool...
