She went further to say he exude 0 confidence and will bleep us up big time one day.she laughed when he conceded that bullet shot saying dude couldn't even lift himself. It has happened. I just hope Coach Rohr retires today and make him crew follow am. As for Alloy Agu, posterity will judge him. 2 Likes |

Earthquake2: How will I watch Balogun when he is effectively either warming the bench or not even in the match day squad, then the game against Chelsea his pass led directly to a goal. I am not judging him based on that but saying he is a better passer than Ogu or Mikel Agu is false. I repeat the two of them are better passers than Onazi that I know, not necessarily better midfielders, far from that 1 Like |

I know this is hindsight but Mahrez would not have beaten Uzoho in goal for that freekick. Akpeyi is just too poor in organizing a wall and positioning himself. I recall even the great Messi couldn't beat Uzoho from similar close range, edge-of-the-box-kinda fk at Russia 2018. Uzoho tipped it to the post. Sigurdsson too could not beat him. Even with that said, Uzoho is also average (on the better side of average if you ask me compared to Akpeyi) and needs to improve. He is still 20 and I trust he can. But Akpeyi is never going to get better. It is too late. Drtega: 6 Likes 2 Shares |

Truidstar:Brilliant is totally different from character. I talked about Sylvanus Okpala's tactical acumen. By the way, the highlight of Sylvanus Okpala's coaching career was him playing a big part in the tactical displays of the Super Eagles when we won the AFCON under Keshi. When he was sacked by the NFF, Keshi fought tooth and nail to get Okpala back because Keshi understood Okpala's importance tactically. |

Barryseal: When you say jump, where should they jump too. You don't invite yourself you must be invited, albeit they are of Nigerian origin. They believe in due process. Last wee I had a conversation with one of our midfielders and he simply said to me that he has not been contacted nobody has made any official approach to him. There are others who give me the same story. You don't invite players on the pages of newspapers. |

It didn't matter because Messi has scored multiple times from such position. His left foot is not like any other my good man. Messi scored from similar position with his left foot against USA at the 2016 Copa America. That guy is dangerous on the right and the left. You know this. Messi taking a FK is unlike any other taking one except CR7 who is in same league. Odunayaw: 2 Likes |

TheSuperNerd:Well, true. But you'd agree that you'd plank Uzoho more than Akpeyi if such a FK from a less dangerous area went in |

ChrisKels:Worse? Refresh your memory by Youtube.The FK in 2014 was very similar in position to Mahrez's FK. Anyway "has never" doesn't translate to "can never" or "will never" . I'd put my money on Uzoho stopping that FK Akpeyi conceded tho |
