This is the season for TRANSFER SPECULATION l expect to see all kinds of crazy stories. Chuba Akpom to West Ham seems very unlike to me. West Ham need a a good quality striker that will help turn thier season around not Chuba Akpom. Unfortunately stranger things have happened. I for NEVER believed that Bournemouth would pay £20 million for Solanke. A player that excelled at youth level but has done nothing in the game. I know his coaches at Liverpool were even suprised. I do expect too see some serious bids my multiple clubs for Eberechi Eze outside speculation as well as Oviemuno. Two media stories of interest with regards to Victor and Tega. Meanwhile l haven't seen any player do this kind of roundabout on the field of play in a long time. We should have an award for the most disgraceful skill against a players. This by Ovie is my first selection. https://www.empireofthekop.com/2019/11/28/video-reading-fans-go-mad-over-ovie-ejaria-making-a-fool-out-of-the-championship/ 1 Share

jihday: This is where we have double standard or maybe we lack understanding. One iwf my friends came from Nigeria he had played football in Nigeria and national youth level. I brought him to an EPL academy he chose to watch the U12's not the U23's he was shocked at the level of touch at that age and the training facilities and coaching. The top academies have players start at age 5/6 by age 9/10 they are training 4/5 times a week including games. Each session is at least 2 hours plus. "At that time" l watched him play and my opinion was based on comparative standard. By now you should have noticed a lot of our youth players have deficiencies in thier game when they get to Europe. Not thier fault they did not have the same level of training Natural ability unquestionably AHEAD but technical ability spatial awareness even touch are questionable. They then have to learn very quickly. First touch is sometimes everything it's the difference between the best and very good. 2 Likes |

Real men own up to their mistakes and apologise.. The dates u made those statement don't matter because u never specified that u were making reference to the present..

the bone of contention was your assertion that Solanke was better than Osimhen at the time when there was no basis yet for such comparisons let alone saying one was better than the other. reason why i put up your quote apart from bants was to show how premature your conclusions on Osimhen were at the time using drawing unfair parallels with Solanke at the time. you judged Osimhen harshly without appreciating that the boy was coming back from a serious knee injury which affects the performances of the best of footballers. you were expecting a young man from africa to come to a tough german league to start performing immediately whether he was settled in or not. even when he went to belgium you mocked him because of his failed trails without appreciating that he was recovering from malaria at the time. why I'm particular in calling you out on this is because when it comes to your favourite players you are understanding and become their voltron. the ones you don't like wahala. examples of this are too numerous. with Onyedinma he was too loyal to his club, with iorfa the portuguese mafia and wolves had bad belle for him, with chuks aneke injuries, with solanke you stylishly denied backing him saying he was never interested in Nigeria but you mentioned his name then when he seemed on the up and up. sometimes as a man you can put your hands and say my opinions about this or that player at the time may have been too hasty. unfortunately your ego and desperation not to lose face won't allow you do that. TheGoodjoe backs Iheanacho 100% but was cool when some posters would tease him with his "drills" and "soaking" comments. you are 100% entitled to your opinions but I'm also equally entitled to disagree especially when your assertions contain obvious contradictions. komekn: 11 Likes 1 Share |

Despite his lack of action and goals, Iheanacho insisted he never considered quitting the King Power Stadium. “No I am happy here, everyone is happy,” he said. “The manager is a top manager who is friendly to everyone. “I don’t see the reason why anyone could want to leave. I think he gives everyone chances, there are a lot of games coming up. “I believe in myself if I get the chance. It happens in football, sometimes you can face trying times or sometimes you can play. “It is a time I have to face in my life and just have to keep going. I just have to keep my confidence and be strong.” https://www.completesports.com/iheanacho-praises-top-lad-vardy/ Strong words from Iheanacho. One thing the foxes fans have hammered on is Iheanacho's mental strength. The challenges he faced lately would have weighed him down but the young man took the hits well. If Iheanacho feels he is at the right place, he has my support but it means he has to work twice as hard as every player in the club to keep developing through training. He needs to come back stronger and better each time he gets his chances. Wish him the best if he wants to stay. He is man enough to make his decisions. 3 Likes 1 Share |

Blueelf:I find the gang mentality against komekn puerile and repulsive. It smacks of weakness and cowardice. It has become fashionable to attack him and particularly kellycute and ChrisKels more often than not respond to his posts with disgusting shower of put downs. Yes komekn is infuriatingly biased and unrepentant in his coloured views. Personally most times I just skip past his write ups as I cannot bear his prejudice and sanctimoniousness. However, I still believe that those who chose to engage him can do so without the derisive hurling of epithets and insults. Please the continuous insults directed at komekn should please stop. 14 Likes 4 Shares |

I think people are allowed to have diversed opinions and make remarks based on their current beliefs. I think komekn has a bias but I think we all do to some extent. However, we should kill that belief we are always right because it hinders our ability to learn from others. We might not agree with some of komekn or each others opinions but we should reduce the backlash. Backslashes can make a person hold back when he has an opinion. Diverse points is what will keep this thread going on for long time. Please house, we need to reduce the abuses to appreciate each other. Finito. 4 Likes 1 Share |

boss Mujtahida good to hear from you ![]() yes i also detest this herd mentality of shouting down differing opinions. I'm a strong believer in using superior logic to win arguments. if the person insists on his or her opinion like you na to jump and pass such comments unless the person makes an obvious gaffe or i want to troll the person. Yes hurling insults it's uncalled for but how do you control full grown adults on a public forum? Mujtahida: 2 Likes |

Mujtahida: Komekn is also serving his own insults now, even to people that are supporting him. He will soon quote you and accuse you of emotive bias, amongst other things. Even when you try to be nice to him, he will find a way to attack you because he feels constantly attacked. That's why I told him to take a break, but man is adamant |

safarigirl:Truly komekn na case but we just have to tolerate and manage each other. As per his retaliations I really do not read him so I won't notice. One can make allowance for the occasional insults thrown sporadically here and there because we are human beings but when a sustained barrage of insults is hurled against one person then we should rise up and raise the bar against such.
