Did Balogun decline in form yes or no?

How will anybody know when he is not playing

When last did he play ?

Someone played 8 games all season and you are asking if he declined in form

Yeah. Namibia is there for them to hammer and then they fight for 1 point from the games against Morocco and CIV. grin

South Africa have never actually "hammered" Namibia in any of their past meetings. just narrow wins. in fact,South Africa don't dominate their fellow southern African teams that well.. .. they may beat Namibia but not easily..

Assuming Morocco and CIV play according to the strength of their squad, trust me those kuviki boys will b sent packing from the group stage..
like we learned at the u-20 world cup, 3 points is hardly enough to help u qualify as best loser...

Can you mention a bad game Balogun had to warrant him sitting on the bench

Balogun's situation is as a result of the abilities of his competition, Iheanacho on the other hand has been underwhelming in almost all the matches he played this season

What game did he play since he was sitting at the bench

Or was he starting games for Brighton in the spirit world ?

The coach apparently didn't feel he was good enough to be in the squad at times. I am not going into rating performances with you but tell me why the coach felt he was not good enough to make the squad during the business end of the season.

Silva joned city for money and the team project was successful so he remained there ,mancity offered better salary so what do you expect?

So a player will leave atletico madrid and join bournemouth abi because epl attract bigger names?

You are very funny i swear

What brought robinho to mancity? Robinho was Abu Dhabi United Group first project to be signed at a record 40 million euros 2008, with bigger salary than madrid

Robinho snubbed epl big boys chelsea then for mancity, that says alot for a mancity team to attract robinho over chelsea

Bournemouth might lack the clout of the likes of Atletico Madrid but I bet you players from the likes of Leganes and Celta Vigo will jump at Bournemouth due to the EPL.

City at that time was already a big project and being a big project in the EPL, it was an upward trajectory.

Lol do you expect him to speak bad about the epl?

Aguero joined city for money and their project became successfull in the past few years

If city was not successfull aguero would have end up back at barca madrid and the juventus of this world, you know this

One of the things that makes EPL more attractive to big names is the money. So saying they came because of the money shows you concur with the point.

Lol why won't they jump at Bournemouth when they are promised 100k weekly ? How much laliga dey pay ?

Should I remind you of Bournemouth recording signing Jefferson lerma? He jump from levante to Bournemouth because levante was paying peanut

Obafemi martins earn his smallest salary on his career at levante ,he refused to stay at the club and fly to MLS

Mancity was not a big name when they signed David Silva

One goal and 4 assist for a back up striker is not bad at all. I don't give a sh*t about his price, did it come out of your pocket? When I bring up victor Osimhen you say Belgium is not a top league but now you want to play up a much lower Danish league to get your sentiments across. Where does Denmark rank on that your league ranking? Lower than Belgium I am sure you know.


Leon Balogun was a bench warmer this season and you people want to give him an exemption but want to use that same mouth to talk down a much younger Iheanacho.

Consider what you have posted and ask yourself HONESTLY does it make any sense.

You have unashamedly changed the goal post, KC is now a back up striker. So Leicester paid £25 million for a back up striker. Honestly you suppose shame small with this your analysis if it can be called that.

His price is reflective of the expectation placed on him by Leicester City it's not an irrelevance.

Leonardo Balogun has been a bench warmer but has been very good for the SE when he has played. In comparison KC has not been very good to be diplomatic.

Now who is being emotive and sentimental, HONESTLY speaking ❓

Are u joking right now? So Jamie Vardy that won the league with Leicester was expected to be KC's backup because they paid 25M for him? U are a comedian.


Balogun has had his poor moments like against Libya for the second goal standing and watching while they put the ball in the net.

Depotivo La Corura is a bigger name than Bournemouth, but Bournemouth will attract bigger players. Thus moving from La Coruna is an upward trajectory in a players career. It is not by name, if not players Wil leave West Ham to Nottingham Forest.

The way u like to emphasize on 25 million pound KC is what I don't understand. There was a certain Fernando Torres of Chelsea who was largely a full time flop at Chelsea when he switched from Liverpool. You can now deceitfully, circumvent fact by saying he scored the goal that took Chelsea to the finals. Give the nigga that time to score the goal that keeps leceister in the premier league after they find themselves in relegation battle this coming season

Torres flopped in EPL with Chelsea but did well in Europe.


Chelsea bought expired product from Liverpool without knowing but prior to that, he was very consistent for years.

Simon Moses excelled as a wing forward in training. Until they play him as a AM I think he will never achieve his full potentials. Simon Moses is not a traditional winger , I think he was born to play in the middle due to his ability to operate in small spaces, energy and discipline....Everything Iwobi lacks!

Let him free me and explain how moving from Valencia by Mata and David Silva was a downward trajectory in their career path.

He can play as a second striker but I doubt if he can play AMF.

Get the point before raving on. The EPL has the attribute to attract big names. That is the simple point I made. This is a fact and should not be debated. If you think it is because of money, then you agree with my point. As I said, it should not even be debated.
