oga Andrew444, why do you like to demote naija players? Last time,it was chukwueze and this time around,it is onyekuru.
Now, onyekuru to PSG?? yea...he is capable of being in their first team. Apart from Neymar and Cavani,all of their attackers are benchable.

Broda no nah ,you no dey understand me ,I like chukwueze and onyekuru but I will speak the truth,you don't expect me to call onyekuru a world class player bro ,please be realistic okay .


He is not better than Julian draxler ,he is not better than Lucas Moura who was also frozen out .

So mbappe is benchable ?

elyte89:




Chairman...I no follow d argument, abeg who dem.dey say onyekuru go bench


We go just dey use mouth bench player anyaw for her to favour our own,no b only dimaria e go bench, e go bench THOMAS TUCHEL TOO

ABEG,dis is 2019,lets b more realistic with wat we say,say we like our player no mean say make we dey yan wetin no possible.

I have been hailing onyekuru and I said chukwueze should remain at Villarreal

But oga mostob say I dey degrade Nigeria players

E remain small you go hear say onyekuru to bench Neymar

Many funny things this year bro

That's my biggest fear. The truth is most of these big clubs gunning for him have no immediate first-team plans for him. They will sign him and then ship him off on loan after loan until he fizzles into obscurity. I doubt if a team like Real Madrid for instance will give Chukwueze an immediate chance to fight for a shirt with the likes of Bale and Asensio.

I would advise him to remain at Villareal for at least one more season to establish his reputation properly before moving to a big team. Maybe they will respect him more then.

Not too long ago l said, Villareal is a team struggling. In the relegation zone. Right now they are in the bottom three.

A players value rarely goes up when your team gets relegated. And that loss can have an impact on how you are perceived.


Staying at Villareal would be the best option for now it seems. However, if they get relegated moving to a club that will give him the same platform to develop may be an option to be considered.

PSG played 4-4-2 in their last 2 champions league games against Liverpool and FK Crvena Zvezda with Di Maria as RMF.

Their coach likes playing with all the talents available to him.

No offence but you need to watch more PSG games. They do not play a 4-3-3 formation, just because Neymar is given the freedom to roam doesn't mean it is a 4-4-2, I am guessing you will also say that Barcelona is currently playing a 4-4-2 formation because of Messi's position on the pitch?

Even if Villarreal remains in laliga or not they re the best team for samu atleast for his development before moving to a more glamourous team. It's not only about joining the likes of Madrid, atm psg, bayern n Co but can he get game time in this big clubs?

His development should be his major prioty for now instead of joining a bigger team where he has to battle with more established players for places. Even if he wants to leave villreal he should join a mid table team in laliga, ligue 1 or Bundesliga.

Teams like hoffeinheim,leipzig,monaco,valencia,dortmund just to mention a few don't shy away from giving talented young players a chance in their team

andrew444:


Di Maria plays in the midfield as you have said ,but on a normal day di Maria is also a winger,they have to accommodate mbappe in his position

Even if di Maria is their winger onyekuru can't bench him ,I have not even talk of Julian draxler .

Di Maria stopped playing as a winger before Madrid won LA Decima so as at now he is considered a midfielder. However like you have rightly said even if he starts playing as a winger nobody that is eligible to play for Nigeria will keep him on the bench, not to talk of Onyekuru or Chukwueze no offence to his fanboys in here

Cavani cannot be benched but Mbappe can be benched? Wow

Samu is a super talent destined for greatness but leaving Villarreal for a big team at this stage of his career may turn out to be a big mistake which may affect him on the long run. He is just 19 and in his first season in professional football so why the rush?

Even if he leaves for a top club this january or in the summer the best for him is to leave on loan to a club that has good record and pedegree when it comes to nurturing of young players.

I don't know if it is nationality that always make majority of you guys here post rubbish or you're indirectly trolling. First, it was Iheanancho >Mbappe but now it is Onyekuru to bench Mbappe

EEGA:
I don't see him regretting any move.

Chukwueze is a very talented,hardworking,obedient and skillful player.

When their new coach arrived, he had some doubts about his abilities which made him start Chukwueze in his first game which was the Europa league .Chukwueze proved himself by scoring in the 11th minute and winning the 'Man of the Match' in that same game.3 days later the coach started him in their la liga game where he playef for up to 82 mins.In his debut game for the Super Eagles in Asaba he combined well with Osimhen troubling the Ugandan defence coupled with his superb taking of corner-kicks.He was the best player for the 1st-Half.He turned that particular game to a one-man show.It took him just 20mins in his debut game to write his name in Rohr's AFCON list.Can't wait for Ebuehi-Chukwueze combo on the right.It will be a delight to watch.

I'm not surprised with the current offers he is getting.



Chukwueze is not a player for the bench.He will always shine in any club he signs for.

Nobody is doubting Chukwueze talent at all...however,he isn't the first young player from Nigeria to be making waves in Europe.. we have seen many of them before...

Chukwueze hasn't even spent a full season as a professional footballer and you are already saying he will be a starter at any club..
He is in the best league in the world and a decent team where he will get plenty game time...let him stay a bit and develop himself.. let him build a reputation such that any club wanting to sign him will know that he is very good...

Let's just pray they somehow survive the relegation.

I am one of his fan boys and also onyekuru

My offence is calling onyekuru an average player and saying he will be a bench warmer at psg

And my second offence is saying chukwueze should stay at Villarreal and not trust the Epl teams

I agree with you samuel has to play at least 2 full seasons with consistent top performances before he moves to any top club that said the little bit I have seen of him he looks to be a special player hopefully he does enough to help move his team far from the relegation zone

We tell them a player is class, they suppose it to be overhype.

But why would they sign such a short deal with him? I am shocked by that one. Villarreal are in trouble because crazy wages will be thrown his way since there will be no transfer fee to be paid.
