Icon4s: YOU REALLY DO NOT HAVE AN UNDERSTANDING OF THE ACADEMY OPERATIONS AT FOOTBALL CLUBS IN ENGLAND First team players are called to the U23 on account of injury as part of the recovery process, or a fall out with the manager for football or non football reasons. The example of Sakho at Liverpool, Niase at Everton. Because you train with the first team doesn't make you a first team player, over the course of the season you will find a considerable number of youth players training with the first team depending on the size of the the squad. This is very normal, some may end up on the bench and or get a few games or indeed no games at all. Even when you get a few games in the first team you are still far away from being established as a senior first team player. This discussion centres on Iwobi, and the question, was he a first team player for Arsenal when he was invited to the SE ![]() Below a link to a report about him in the Telegraph on of the more upstanding newspapers that have integrity in the UK dated 6th October 2015. That is to show some corroboration about him being a youth academy player. https://www.telegraph.co.uk/sport/football/teams/arsenal/11915430/Who-is-Alex-Iwobi.html Indeed you will find a lot of players going back and forth from first team to U23 as a matter of routine until they establish themselves as first team players or indeed be dropped if considered not good enough. Its remarkable to note that it was after Iwobi's call up to the SE that Arsenal offered him a long term senior contract in October 2015. 1 Like |

[I]I hope this is true . It's about time we had a proper left footed player in that role.. Idowu has been very poor there lately...[/I] Rohr hints Jamilu Collins may start for Super Eagles against Libya 328 By admin - October 11, 2018, 12:49 pm Gernot Rohr has given a strong hint that Jamilu Collins could make his official Super Eagles debut against Libya on Saturday after closely monitoring him at his German club. “Collins is interesting for us. He has the qualities to play very well for us,” the Eagles coach said. “Perhaps he will start the game (vs Libya). “It is not just because he has a good left foot. He has a good physique, he’s quick, he can go forward and he is defensively strong. “I saw him play for Paderborn when they beat Cologne 5-3 and he did very well. “Two, three years ago, Paderborn were in the Bundesliga and they now want to come back (to the top flight). They have a really strong team. “What I also saw from him before the Seychelles game was good, but he had a little injury, he wasn’t 100% to start the game. “He started the game in Monrovia against Liberia and he was good.” However, Rohr equally admitted the competition for the left fullback position is open in the absence of Elderson Echiejile, who has yet to secure a new club. Ola Aina and Bryan Idowu are the other options for Rohr in this position. - Score Nigeria 1 Like |

The French Connection: Samuel Kalu - The Nigerian nomad at home in Ligue 1 By Robin Bairner ![]() The young winger is one of a host of foreign imports impressing in le Championnat - the League of Talents It has already proven to be a big season for 21-year-old Bordeaux winger Samuel Kalu, who has earned himself regular minutes at the Ligue 1 club while carving out a place in the Nigeria national side. He was handed his international debut against the Seychelles at the beginning of September, in which he grabbed an assist, and now promises more. With an African Nations Cup qualifying double-header against Libya looming, Gernot Rohr has rewarded the youngster for his promising start to the season in Ligue 1 with what is becoming a regular berth in a the squad looking to rebuild after the World Cup. Editors' Picks For Kalu, his debut represents a highlight of a career that has already taken him far and wide. His journey into the professional game started at the Golden Boot Academy, before taking him to France via short spells in Slovakia with Trencin and in Belgium with Gent. ![]() “I adapt wherever I go,” Kalu has previously admitted – and his success to date suggests that is indeed the case. By the time Bordeaux swooped for him in the summer for a reported fee of €8 million, he had made fewer than 50 top-flight appearances with Gent but had impressed sufficiently in order for the Ligue 1 side to line him up as a replacement for the talismanic Malcom, who moved to Barcelona in the summer after exploding in France. “I’m happy that he’s signed for Bordeaux,” Rohr, who turned out for the French club during his playing career in the 1980s, said in August. “I think he’ll give them penetration on the flanks because he likes to play in space. Against teams who like to defend deep, players like Kalu can help find solutions.” His statistics in the 2017-18 season were formidable, having netted six goals and offered a further seven assists in only 24 league outings. “He has an interesting profile, with speed and technical qualities,” Bordeaux president Stephane Martin told the press, indicating the chief reasons why the player he had been signed. ![]() The hope from both the club and the player is that he can replicate the spectacular success that Malcom enjoyed over the duration of a deal at Stade Matmut-Atlantique that will last five years. “Ligue 1 is another step,” the player, given the No.10 shirt, admitted when he signed with the club. He arrived on August 6 as Bordeaux’s first signing of the summer and in seven subsequent Ligue 1 appearances has mustered one goal and one assist. Despite relatively modest numbers, club coach Eric Bedouet has praised the importance of a player Nigeria hope can become a replacement for Victor Moses, who announced his international retirement a matter of weeks ago. “For a centre forward, wingers like Kalu and Francois Kamano are precious,” Bedouet said. “Kalu’s crossing is very, very good. They both possess great physical qualities and have a little of the same style: they’re very quick, direct, powerful and physically-strong. “Look at the build of Kalu – he’s capable of stopping with the ball then accelerating again, making the difference in a game all in one action.” The pair have often worked in conjunction this season and have been one of Bordeaux’s major strengths as they have powered into the top half of the standings. Kamano, 22 and now into his fifth season as a professional, has hogged the headlines after netting seven times already, but Bedouet, who takes matchday responsibilities for the club, is well aware of the value of the duo’s powers. ![]() “Both of them together, it’s quite annoying for opponents,” Bedouet added last week. “They have to continue these performances for the duration.” Indeed, Bordeaux have leaned heavily on the pair and will continue to do so in the weeks ahead as domestic and Europa League commitments mount. For Kalu, it has been a whirlwind beginning to the season, but for a young man fast tracked through Slovakian and Belgium football, it is a feeling that is not unfamiliar. Progress in his career has been unrelenting, and despite a left-field route to Bordeaux, he will expect it to continue all the way to the top. Source: Goal 2 Likes 1 Share |

I wanna straggle a bit. I have been thinking, why is AJ scared of fighting DW? I am overly relishing that fight because it promises to be a blood bath. Now Doentay claims he is Nigerian too. Joshua and his camp have been avoiding this animal like a plague. Is AJ being cautious or coward? |
