komekn: Tackling ur second point first: you know there are several times u have thrown provocative words at me, right? But then the difference is the way and manner each person responds. I do not know you in person, but I have promised that I will one day arrange a meeting with you on any of my visits if it is convenient. This foreign born agenda, there was a way u were presenting it when u first came to this thread and we all were happy to have someone out there who knows some of these foreign born players in and out. People were always elated to see the name of any young Foreign Nigerian doing it well in England. But somehow along the line things changed and u should expect to see resistance. The only time you and I have been on different sides of an argument is this foreign vs local born issue. Infact same goes for every other person. Komekn, we appreciate ur contributions here but maybe u need to change ur tactics. I sincerely appologize on the insult u received. We have to move on and please don't be discouraged. We need more info on our English sons. 3 Likes |

komekn: If I understand you correctly huge talent according to you means an outstanding talent? Something like Mbappe now right? Well if that is your definition of huge talent well I am not sure he is exactly up to that. But for me I consider even Dembele a huge talent and although he may be more talented than Samu I still believe that if Dembele falls into that huge talent category (together with someone like....this young fullback cum winger in Fulham) then Samu deserves to be in it or at least around the periphery there. By the way Mbappe is an outstanding talent, not huge talent. Some might add Dembele to that outstanding talent category but there is no way Samu is not close to that Fulham guy(this is in respect to the match he played against Liverpool this season which I watched and live too, my first live EPL game by the way, although I have watched a few LA Liga games live). So this is just a matter of semantics, to you huge talent is the ultimate, to a lot of people here it is the second tier behind outstanding talent 3 Likes |

TheSuperNerd:good morning doc hope you are good. Bro there is no sugar coating this your use of insulting and abusive words against komekn is completely wrong and nothing justifies it. Everyone has right to express his or her own opinion even if we don't agree with it. whatever we feel are komekn's true intentions when he voices his opinions it is still not right to hurl invectives like the ones above at him. Dude I know you are a brilliant and intelligent person. You can easily counter him with facts and figures if he says something contrary without having to go down the insulting road. I know you're better than this but if what he writes riles you up so much like safarigirl would suggest jump and pass such comments. Take care doc stay blessed 4 Likes 2 Shares |

TheSuperNerd: Oga forget about long epistle, it's a simple stuff! If you think his comment is ridiculous or sarcastic, reply him in ridiculous or sarcastic manner as the case may be, no need for little insults. Concerning your first paragraph, if you must know, your input is needed here as well as that of other monikers. If you think that am looking for your 'attention' specifically-- well, I don't! because it neither adds important value to my person nor $$$ to my account. |

I will rather take the path of Jesus Christ and John the Baptist who spared no punches when accurately labelling the buffonnery of certain fellows who acted like saintly gentlemen but are venomous wolves in character and via the mentality of their human nature.... ....... than to take the path of the Pharisees and scribes who uttered no word of insult in a bid to look right to people when in fact they were the masters of the lows. Sometimes like Jesus did, it is best to label dirt for what it truly is. My stand changeth not but I appreciate your concern and words. Do have a brilliant day yourself Sir Chrisooblog.

chrisooblog: I believe this has been a huge misunderstanding. I for one will tag Samu a huge talent but will I put him in the same bracket as Mbappe? No way na, and they are almost of the same age which is what I genuinely believe Komekn is saying too but here once you oppose a particular set of people you become the enemy, even if you whistle then it means you must have whistled because you don't like so so and so player, it is annoying 3 Likes |

komekn: I strongly believe there was a degree of mischief in what you are now trying to project as an innocent question, perhaps aimed at getting a certain kind of reaction from readers here but they have overreacted. Why do I say this? Because even when I provided reasonable proof to back up why the player is being described as a huge talent your comeback was only to say I should have my own opinion rather than that of the la Liga expert whose view I referenced. Of what use was that to the debate ?? You were being a wind up merchant and you got served playa. Learn from it. Lol 4 Likes |

Dutct football rise continues... Like Die Oranje, Like The Super Eagles Didn't watch the full game because I was busy with some personal work but I was able to see the final minutes of it and wow, that was the best part. The dutch came back from two nil down and Drew 2-2 to top a Euro Nations League group having World Champions, France and Former World Champs, Germany (who have been relegated to Euro league B). By virtue of that, the Netherlands (aka Holland) are through to the Euro Nations League Finals next year at the expense of France. Wow! I remember when I and a few monikers many weeks back (more like few months ago now) were discussing the state of Dutch football and I remember saying strongly that I see a return to Euro 2020 for the Dutch and a comeback for them to the top with time because of their current talent pool with he likes of Frenkie De Jong, Matthijs de ligt, VVD, Stefan De Vrij, Bergwin, Promes, De Roon, Dumfries, Cillesen, Wijnaldum, a rejuvenated Memphis and more. Well, yeah they are not yet in the class of the Kluiverts, Van Bastens, Seedorf and Co but their potentials are huge and I said so months ago. I am excited for them not just because they have proved me right so far but also because of the connection Dutch football have always had to Naija soccer through the coaching knowledge investments of Jo Bonfere and Clemens Westerhof all those years especially in our first Golden Generation. I have this strong personal affinity for Dutch and Brazilian football because I believe those were the football cultures that greatly influenced how Naija Soccer have evolved into being one known for being attacking , dominant and having beautiful flair. It is inherent in most of our Talents especially from the grassroots with our age grades all the way to the senior team even though we are coached by a German now who had more of his football time in France (makes him a Franco-German kinda then). It just gives me Fine Joy seeing Dutch football's comeback coincide beautifully with the steady rise of Naija soccer also from the dark moments of 2014-2017. Almost same period the dutch also had their recent dark moments. I am happy the Dutch are in the Euro Nations League Finals and I hope to see them at the Euros 2020 proper but it is My Super Eagles that give me the biggest Joy of all... The pieces are finally coming together for Naija soccer just it is coming together again for the dutch and I only hope Rohr and his crew can manage to make the most of it. There is a deep unwritten connection in the football realm between Dutch football's resurrection and Nigeria's comeback steady rise.... Time will show more of it. In this light I hereby can conclude with the words, "like Dutch football, like Nigerian Football..." Excelsior Super Eagles. Borrowing England's famous words... The real glories of Naija soccer is coming home again... The dawn is ever closer. 2 Likes 1 Share

You cannot equate Chriskels to Komekn ever.... We all know Chriskels here. We know his stand and what his words are about. He may have the most personal axe to grind with Rohr but we know he is GWG through and through. He may label some of our midfielders as Carpenters but that is because he wants upgrades and to see the team become world class just as I also want. Was it not same Chriskels who was defending the stats of Mikel Agu the other day? A player who I know is among the carpenter crew? Plsss plsss and plsss... There is no correlation at all at all between Chriskels and Komekn. Haba! Komekn will talk down on every department of the team and mischievously play down the talents of every rising indigenous born Naija lad. But Chriskels... He will never do that. Chriskels even gives us updates on Foreign born Naija lads like Lookman and Sheyi Ojo and more. Just as I give updates occasionally on Noah Okafor and some others... We are only after killing the bias against the Indigenous born lads because I, Chriskels and some others stand for both the foreign borns and Indigenous borns. This is why no one can come out to say Chriskels is a hater of Home-grown Talents. See? So your point does not add up at all. And if truly you are no newbie here and claim to know so much about komekn, and all you can is he has a different view then I can only laugh and say, well done. Well done because obviously, the events of this thread from times past till now are lost on you. Lol... Utonwanne: 2 Likes 1 Share |

edi287: Nothing to prove but I actually know both of them of them personally. You would probably notice that l have not engaged instigator in chief of all the allegations, vitriolic caustic abuse, etc, etc. Maybe because of my professional background or experience in life, l am not sure. I NEVER or at least try not to make assumptions about what people are thinking it's an exercise in futility. No man can be God. Only God knows the heart of a man. Anybody insinuating that he knows what anybody think is not just conceited but deeply delusional. Words can be ambiguous, meaning and intention perceived with huge disparities in perception. It's not about the words but the person and how he receives them. With bad mind or good mind. It shows the depth of bigotry some have extended too. Nobody has brought out the post in which I commended Chukwueze extensively for his professionalism, dedication and discipline that with these attributes he will go a long way. I will use the word promoted, because I don't want to give detail or answer questions. Years ago when I attempted to promote Sunday Mba and Etebo to the EPL, I guess it was because they were born in Manchester. let me be sarcastic LOL. It's not an act of bias or favoritism but participative familiarity and association. That makes me talk more about Nigerian origin players in the UK. It may be a faceless forum but I try to be responsible with my words. You may not agree with my opinion but that's your prerogative, l am not looking for election votes to win Senate seat for Delta.Lol 1 Like |
