charlesemeka85: Suprised his stats over the last few years have not been impressive at all the club's he has played. He is very difficult to play against almost a man mountain very physical not particularly skilful or fast. I remember him when he was at Reading fc U18 he scored three different hat-tricks against Arsenal and Chelsea. Was the top goal scorer in.the U18. He committed to Nigeria then but after promises he wasn't even called up to the U20 although others fat less qualified were. |

Eartquake1: Otabor has 2 goals and 1 assist in almost 30 games between this season and last season. He is a forward player.. We are talking about League 1, championship and Bulgarian league not top level football. Eze has more than that this season alone. His form in the last year does not warrant any call up. If it smells like a rat, it probably is a rat. 10 Likes 2 Shares |

CIES rates Moses Simon ahead of Osimhen, Messi and Ronaldo Super Eagles winger Moses Simon was Nigeria’s best performing player across Europe’s top five leagues in the month of September according to The International Centre for Sports Studies (CIES). Simon, who is on loan at Ligue Un side Nantes, out-performed Lionel Messi, Cristiano Ronaldo and Tammy Abraham based on CIES data. CIES Football Observatory stated it applies a unique approach to “rate players on a match-by-match basis by taking into account the pitch production and efficiency at both individual and collective level (methodology).” In September, Moses Simon made four league appearances for Nantes; the club lost just one game. The Winger was scored a 82.0 rating and came up 101 in the same bracket as Barcelona duo Gerard Pique and Clement Lenglet, in a pool of 1051 players. Meanwhile, with a 81.0 rating Victor Osimhen was the second best performer (129), Wilfred Ndidi came in third (205) with a score of 78.8. Alex Iwobi was rated fourth. Source: Brilafm.net 1 Like |

New Boys Solomon-Otabor, Olayinka Send Message To Super Fans Pre-Brazil; Azeez Too Slavia Prague striker Peter Olayinka and CSKA Sofia winger Viv Solomon-Otabor have sent a message to Super Eagles fans ahead of a possible debut against Brazil in an international friendly on Sunday. Ramon Azeez is making a return to the national team after five years in the international wilderness and the in-form Granada midfielder is excited to face the South Americans. Asked to introduce himself to Nigeria fans by the Super Eagles Media team, Olayinka said : ''My name is Olayinka Peter, player of Slavia Prague. I am a forward and I am very happy to be here, I want to be here for long. ''I want to give my very best to Nigeria. Keep praying for us, keep supporting us and we are going to make you guys proud''. Solomon-Otabor comes from a footballing family, with his father representing Bendel Insurance, NNPC and Eagle Oil before relocating to England, and his uncle Thompson Oliha was part of the 1994 Africa Cup of Nations winning team. The winger said : ''My name is Viv Efosa Solomon-Otabor, I am 23 years old and I play for CSKA Sofia. I am from Edo State in Nigeria and I am very honoured to have been called up for Nigeria and I hope there's many more times for this to happen again. ''We have a big game on Sunday and I want every Nigerian to come and support us and show us some love.'' Azeez added : ''My name is Ramon Azeez, I play for Granada in La Liga. I am happy to be back here with the Super Eagles and if I have my opportunity to play on Sunday I am going to give all my possible best. I want all Nigerians to give their support on Sunday against Brazil''. Igho Kingsley |

Opponents Watch Brazil's Final Training Session : Neymar, Firmino, Jesus In Starting XI Vs Nigeria; Coutinho Dropped ![]() Brazil coach Tite has hinted at making at least two changes to his starting line-up for tomorrow's international friendly against Nigeria at the National Stadium in Singapore. According to TV Globo, Alex Sandro and Barcelona loanee Philippe Coutinho did not play for the team likely to start the game against the Super Eagles in the final workout on Saturday. Renan Lodi replaced the Juventus left-back, Everton Cebolinha started on the left side of attack and PSG superstar Neymar will take up the position vacated by Coutinho. In the tactical formation tested in training, Ederson Moraes started in goal and the back four contained Daniel Alves, Marquinhos, Thiago Silva and Renan Lodi; Casemiro, Arthur and Neymar lined up in midfield and the strikers were Gabriel Jesus, Roberto Firmino and Everton. With Brazil failing to win any of their last three matches, Tite might have decided to field a strong squad against the Super Eagles.

Brazil vs Nigeria: Where the game will be won and lost Though not a competitive game, both teams are eager for the best of results in Singapore Nigeria will face Brazil on Sunday in Singapore as part of the two-match global tour by the five-time World Cup holders. Many are understandably excited to see the two continental powerhouses rub shoulders especially after naming strong squads for the high-profile international friendly. While an outright prediction on what Sunday’s outcome would be may prove to be an arduous task, there could be some insights into where the game will be won and lost. Editors' Picks It is worthy to note that Brazil have not won in their last three matches preceding the clash with Nigeria on Sunday. Last Thursday, they were held to a 1-1 draw by Senegal . Battle of goalkeepers For Nigeria and Brazil, the goalkeeping section remains a knotty issue yet to be solved. For the Samba Boys, injured Liverpool goalkeeper Allison seems to be their more trusted hand. The last victory, as well as a clean sheet, were all achieved with Allison. However, with Ederson Moraes stepping into the picture, it has not been rosy as Brazil conceded in their last three games and failed to register a clean sheet with the Manchester City man in-between the goalposts. In eight games in the Premier League this season, Ederson has managed just three clean sheets with his last outing ending in a shock 0-2 defeat. If the Super Eagles play their cards well, they can help extend the seemingly poor run of the 26-year-old with the Brazil team. While Brazil have their problems, it looks worse for Nigeria as this area remains a problematic one especially with the inconsistent performances of the past choices. Francis Uzoho showed great improvements the last time against Ukraine, if he improves on that, then it would be good for Nigeria but by and large, the keepers will have a huge role to play in Sunday’s game going by the attacking prospects of the three-time African champions as well as the five-time world champions Who will be more clinical? For punters, the Brazil-Nigeria game should provide goals going by attacking prowess of both teams and defensive shortcomings. Brazil have scored an average of two goals a game this year – 12 in total. Nigeria on their part have scored ten goals this year – and the Super Eagles aren’t all that super at the back either. Nigeria have conceded twice (eight) as many goals as Brazil (four). While the Super Eagles will be banking on Victor Osimhen upfront going by his superlative form for Lille ,where he has scored eight goals for in as many games, Neymar is worthy of being banked on by Brazil, especially with his new centurion status. The game may well be won or lost more by who is more clinical in front of goal. The Bench The right tactics, approach as well as selection by Gernot Rohr and his opposite number Tite could also determine where the pendulum of victory will swing to in Sunday’s game. Both managers need a good result in Sunday’s game to boost the waning confidence in their abilities. Tite outrightly expressed displeasure with the result and overall performance of his players against Senegal and has challenged them to up their game when they face the Super Eagles. “I am not pleased with the result and overall performance (against Senegal) as they were not what I was looking for. We have more to do for a better show against Nigeria on Sunday,” Tite told reporters in Singapore. For Rohr, he believes the Brazil game is a chance to show he and his youthful team are on the right path to greatness. “The game against Brazil will show how much we are progressing after finishing third at the Africa Cup in Egypt," he told the media. “It is a fantastic opportunity for us to learn a few more things that will make us better and stronger for future challenges.” In all, while many will see Brazil as the favourites going into Sunday’s friendly against Nigeria, the tie could be won or lost by either of the two teams. https://www.goal.com/en-ng/news/brazil-vs-nigeria-where-the-game-will-be-won-and-lost/1leyeocgshscu1se5rechtysh6 |

tbaba12345: That's a vague argument because Usain was never a professional footballer. We all know speed is needed asset in football. Jamie Vardy, Daniel James and Aubameyang all build their foundations on their speed. Goals don't tell you everything about a winger. Look at Wilf Zaha, so effective but yet to score a goal this season. |
