Payet is an awesome player. The 4 EPL players I had recommended to Barca 3 seasons ago were: Ngolo Kante, DyMetri Payet, Eden Hazzard, and Virgil Van Djik plus Marco Verratti (PSG) and Paolo Dybala (Juventuss). But the hapless and clueless Barca board were more interested in the likes of O. Dembele, Paulihno, Riyah Mahrez, and Phillipe Coutinho. To me, Mahrez and Coutinho while great players are not Barca type players like Hazzard or Payet.

. Mehn I was so busy and engaged with the Marseille match that I didn't even bother checking others . Did you see Payet's 1st half disallowed goal ? That guy is madly talented. Both feet of his take shots accurately!! That was an Arjen Robben type of goal . No wonder West ham refused to let him go. Funny enough I still think he's still underrated. What a talent!! In fact the whole Marseille team was ready to DIE on that pitch. That's the kind of determination that makes you just love the game of football. Amazing!!

I want to send Iwobi an encouraging message on IG, he really needs it if they are trolling him that hard

But I'm priding in myself and I wouldn't want to be seen as one of those fan girls, so .....Iwobi, be strong, innugo? Great men have gone through trials such as this, even your uncle for all his legendary status and greatness, also had mean stuff said of him by frustrated fans....lucky for him, there was no social media with which they could troll him directly


You will shut them up in Russia, I believe in your ministry. Keep balling and keep working hard

Please send something to him abeg. Any comforting message would go a long way.

Don't worry about being called a groupie, I trust you and that's all that matters.

They would allow the likes of Jack Wilshere and even Mesut Ozil to get away with murder, but you'd never stop hearing about it if the likes of Iwobi (or Kelechi) puts a foot wrong! And that's why these kids tend to play with fear whenever they line up for their football clubs. Compare the way Iwobi plays for Arsenal vis-à-vis the way he plays for the Super Eagles. He can't even hold onto the ball for one min when playing for Arsenal, because they wouldn't let him

Watching Dymitry Payet reminds me of players that walked this planet between early 1980s and late 2000s...This age and generation is second class

better yet, let's do it in numbers.. he needs it.. He needs to know that Nigerians are behind him no matter what. That would raise his spirit when he is donning the GWG. There are a number of Nigerians joining this Arsenal fans to bash him.. our voices need to overpower theirs.

This is Lookman's stats over two seasons in League One and EPL in 16/17, then EPL and Bundesliga in 17/18 so far.

His performance has neither improved nor dipped. The question remains why is he not performing way better in a league that just has Bayern Munich winning everything? There has been excuses given already. Call his performance whatever you want but I don't see any marked difference from England to Germany.

The much celebrated Ighalo did far better in the Championship than what he did in La Liga, and he continued where he stopped when he moved to the EPL until he started experiencing a goals drought later on.

My point is you can find as much examples to buttress your case just as you can find other examples to dismiss it.. so what we have is we find people believing what they want.. don't apply double standards when moving from one Nigerian player to another.

Recommend those players minus hazard....I love dimitry payet so much and ngolo Kante...hazard is overrated...payet is so good at free kick,scorer about 3 or 4 in his first Epl season with west ham.....scored 10 goals with west ham and about 12 assist,while hazard could manage only 13 goals with Chelsea when they won the league.....Bros hazard is good but overrated....with due respect to all Chelsea players...Diego costa won them the league twice,costa is a beast,I will never want hazard at Barca,hazard is just an upgraded dembele....take my fact or leave it

Mind You bros dimitry payet is one of the most underrated player I have ever seen....he was earning 120k pounds per week at westham...that says a lot...only few players at arsenal earn more than 120,no player in Tottenham earn 120,harry Kane is just 100k,I am just making an example with payet....even when at westham he was a regular with the French team at the euros when they lost to Portugal at the final,it's hardly for a player to be regular at the French team with a below average clubs like westham....Even nzonzi of Sevilla hardly make the French team

KOMEKN SPECIAL REPORT -- PREMIER LEAGUE 2

[Fulham U23 0-2 Southampton U23]

5 Nigerian descents on parade for their respective U23 sides.

18 year old forward, Nathan Tella started and scored Southampton's second goal. 17 year old forward, Michael Obafemi also lasted the entire duration for Southampton. Fela Olomola, on the other hand, remained on Southampton's bench.

Fulham's pair of defenders, 19 year old Adetayo Edun and 20 year old Elijah Adebayo both played from start to finish.

Thank you bros....even Neymar first season I was calling him overrated player....but I had to eat my words the next season,Suarez first season was not too bad,he scored goals even after about 8 games ban.

Mind you I will call hazard overrated player anyday anytime,if you are the key man of a team and you don't get much goals or assist what's the use ?

Hazard Highest league goal a season is 15 goals,the rest are low goals and low assist,football is not all about making runs and dancing with the ball

Payet has always been known to be talented, the problem is he's been inconsistent. Only started showing a bit of consistency in his last season at Marseille and West Ham. That's why Arsenal didn't sign him. They scouted him much much earlier.

Arsenal fans are harsh on players that isn't Jack Wilshere. Ozil only started getting a pass as Alexis Sanchez left.
Hector Bellerin and Xhaka have had it worse than Iwobi imo. Xhaka has also shut his comment section off a couple of times.

All the years of frustration is taken out on players...It is no wonder why players want to leave. Even after Iwobi's brilliant display against Southampton, i still saw plenty of abuse. The environment is toxic at the club.
