I don’t think his problem is based on performance. I THINK it’s working permit related. He was signed by Chelsea, and there was also no updates. If he was that bad Leicester won’t have signed him. He attended trials, didn’t he?


Habid never had any work permit ish. I dont know how they circumvented that rule buh I think he was already playing for the Chelsea youth team before he left for Leicester

Nacho won't cost much for now but he won't lack Epl club,trust me

You keep on misunderstanding and yet you don't want to learn. Iheanacho currently has a contract till 2021 or so and the buyback clause in the contract is 50million which means the buyout clause will be close to 70m if not more, for Leicester to sell it means you must bring up to that 70m except Leicester badly wants to offload the said player so do you see any EPL club paying 70m for him? Then you talk about going on loan, how many midtable EPL players are currently on loan to other midtable EPL clubs?? That's not how the business model is, if you are playing for Liverpool they can easily find you suitors from midtable clubs because that will foster the business model with Liverpool and along the line you will be able to get some of their academy players for free and all that. That's what Komekn and I kept on trying to explain to you but for some reason understanding it has been difficult for you

What is the Barca style exactly?? Being able to keep possession and having a high pass accuracy even in right spaces so you can execute all these brilliant triangles all across the pitch. I already pointed out that Dembele kept on warming the bench last season because he always lost possession easily and played with little or no motivation, this season he improved on that but at a time within the season he went back to his old wasteful self and even Rafinha played ahead of him, his head don cool now and he is back to what he knows how to do best, I watched the match against Levante and he hardly lost the ball four times, so as at now he has adapted to the Barca style perfectly except there is another Barca model you have in mind

You read where I said dembele is not suited to our style ,but he is getting the goals and assists

Haaa and ur point is Chukwueze's positioning? Bros do u know why Messi never liked playing alongside Dembele, before now? Do u know why Dembele found it hard to fit in till lately? The complains and reasons given by his teammates and coaches were his poor positional sense and decision making.

Dat said, when Chuks is caught up in a bad position, he conjures some improvised pieces of skills to wriggle outta the tight corner, hence, he easily beats his marker to save a situation. In other words, what he lacks with his positioning, he makes up with his impact dribbles. Please, can same be said of Dembele? Dembele only has his pace, which Chuks is also a match.

Dembele only has pace? grin grin I would ask you if you have ever watched Dembele before, just go through his stats and check the number of dribbles he completes per 90.
And down to the Messi part, it is still evident even now that Messi and Suarez do not exactly like playing with Dembele and that has absolutely nothing to do with footballing reasons, it is just because he is keeping Coutinho on the bench and Cout is part of the Messi-Suarez bromance, I don't know where you got your own idea of positioning because Dembouz's positioning is top notch and his runs off the ball is marvelous. And the reason given BT the coach for not playing him all along was because of his attitude not because of footballing reasons yet again, I suggest you research well before you conclude

Lol bro, u go come be my agent?

About Maja, av got my eyes on him and Aribo. I just dey wait make dem make their speculated moves to the top leagues this January.

Now this is a paradox.

So many dismiss players who are in lower leagues and clubs. Even when they are the outstanding players in that league.

The NFF should be engaging them now not when they blow. It's not rocket science.

As l always say rather have a Lion who is killing it in a lower league than an anonymous mouse who is being killed in a higher club and league.

Aribo is being looked upon by EPL clubs and Bundesliga clubs too. Maja has already made an unspoken agreement with a EPL club. What we are witnessing is simple Maradona football posturing and politics.

Nigeria Football Federation President Amaju Pinnick believes he can still convince Victor Moses to rescind his decision to quit the Super Eagles and is set to travel to England for talks with the Chelsea winger.

In August 2018, Moses decided to call time on his international career in order to focus fully on his Chelsea career and his young family as well as to allow the next generation of Super Eagle stars the opportunity to step up and to flourish.

''With all due respect to Nigerians, I am talking to Victor Moses because I believe he's somebody that has paid his dues,'' Pinnick told Channels Television.

''He shouldn't just leave Nigeria unceremoniously and I told him that. I talk to him every day. I make him understand the reason, he's very, very eager.

''Even if he says I am begging him, I don't mind. It's not as if there are no players there but we should encourage our players. The others when they say they are retiring, maybe it is out of ego.''

If Moses does not make a U-turn, Pinnick has revealed that he plans to set up a ceremonial game for the 2013 Africa Cup of Nations star.

''He has paid his dues. I recall the Nations Cup we won, the game we played against Ethiopia, ten minutes to the end of the game, he scored two penalties and those penalties catapulted us to the quarterfinals.

''I will be meeting with him in a fortnight and his agent. Even if he wants to go, there must be a ceremony for him to go and that's the truth.

''Look at what they did to Wayne Rooney, they brought him back, gave him the captaincy. We must celebrate them at every point in time,'' concluded Pinnick.

Moses was among five Nigerian players named to the 2013 Africa Cup of Nations Team of the Tournament, the others being Vincent Enyeama, Efe Ambrose, John Obi Mikel and Emmanuel Emenike.

If a woman wants to contribute here, she must do so small small and not get all into it the way the guys do. You can deceive yourself and the other people here, but any woman that wants to contribute here must maintain the lane that the men have told her to maintain.

Crystal Palace have emerged as early favourites to sign Sunderland striker Josh Maja in the January transfer window.

The 20-year-old comes off contract with the Black Cats at the end of the season but it is all but confirmed that he will leave the Stadium of Light this month as they are looking to recoup their previous investment in the player.

According to The Sun, Huddersfield Town and Cardiff City are also monitoring the situation of Maja with a view to snapping him up from the League One side.

The striker's intermediary has a good relationship with clubs in Germany and it is thought there is interest from an unnamed team in the country.

Maja has been in blistering form since the start of the season, scoring 15 goals across all competitions, including 14 in the League One.

The former Super Eagles invitee has played for the youth teams of Fulham, Crystal Palace and Manchester City in the past.

Coutinho came back from his injury two months ago and yet he is still warming the bench now, how is he a starter? Even before he got injured he was starting as a midfielder that was until Arthur and Vidal got their chances and they impressed, since then dude has been on the bench, no way close to a starter for now

Sunderland face having to cash in on Josh Maja this month.

Owner Stewart Donald is furious that Maja's agent has now advised him not to commit his future to the Black Cats.

"Yesterday (Thursday), Josh asked to see Jack to say he will sign," the chairman wrote on social media.

"Today (Friday) I got a call from Sky TV saying he won't sign. Josh advised (us) that his agent has said don't sign, but no courtesy to tell the club.

"Also, we offered what the agent indicated! Busy January ahead.' But he later added: 'He wants to sign it, the agent has said don't! Stay behind him and don't get on his back - we will try and change his mind."

Newcastle, Crystal Palace and Huddersfield have been monitoring his situation.

Wow !!! The world is his oyster the ABSOLUTE best position to be.

Absolutely no need to move until the summer at his young age no transfer fee, a free agent.

He is about to become stupidly rich, l am amazed that Villarreal could be so slack in thier player management.

Before you let an academy player play first team you usually sign them up on a long term contract. Even if you don't think the player is that good. You commit them to long term contract speculatively.

Villareal have been very foolish and Chukwueze had been very wise.

Right now they Villarreal need him more than he does, they can not even put any pressure on Chukwueze to sign a new contract.

He could easily get £100k a week come the summer if he continues as he does.

Similar situation with Josh Maja at Sunderland they cannot put pressure on him by denying him game time. It's too late they need him more than he does. Even offering to increase his income in a multiple of 7. So it doesn't matter for Josh he cam go now or he can go in the Summer. All the £££ is coming to him and it will be in the EPL.

Their situations are not exactly alike. Chukwueze is already playing in the best league in the world and has no footballing reason to go anywhere else.
