The rate away wins just the happen for npfl this days dey very surprising me sef no fit predict league again Kano pillars that hasn't scored since league started both home and away just beat aiwa stalet that hasn't lost again both home and away by 2 goals to one at akwa home ground
That skill invented is called "the Cruyff turn." Copied and used by many star players today. Even Iniesta and Xavi use am tire.
Starboytwo: I have read for like 10 pages back and here are my submission...
Firstly we should try to be civil in expressing our ideas Biko, the last few days has seen a surge of attack on a particular monika, we should try abeg... If I meet anybody on this thread outside, I will hug the person, I swear.... This place is my number 1 club now...
2- the 2nd issue is about the old gen vs new gen, i have read arguments, seen different views which are all legit, but one thing stands out, and I have seen such occurrence in the larger scheme of things... Nobody mentions Ronaldo de Lima, in all this back and forth comparism... Why? Why? Why? Imo that guy is the greatest player I have seen, and I've watched quite a few players, is it skills? Is it goal scoring, is it what? But nobody mention that Man... Or have you guys forgotten who Ronaldo is, the true Ronaldo... I grew up watching that man...I can't remember how I got the CD, but I have a best of Ronaldo back then, I eat and sleep that CD...He was my idol, he was the perfect striker... For Brazil, for psv,for inter, for Barca, for Madrid... See resume... Pls let's us be guided abeg...
I alsa watched a couple of cruyff and that man was very very very good, highly technical, probably the best technical player I seen, he even invented a particular dribble, I think it was in the Euros, which I adopted and I still use it when I see the opening, it never fails, expecially if the defender is sleeping....
Maybe we should define the best players by their Era's instead... If not where we want put
Zidane Ronaldinho
P.s my old man also told me Pele played in Nigeria one time like that, I don't know... But I know his favourite player, SEGUN ODEGBAMI... The only clips of him I have watched is the Nations cup in 80's...
Cc Thesupernerd, (na Carlos Alberto score that monster outside shot right?) Cc Thegoodjoe
TheSuperNerd: Gary Neville was speaking for himself not for all Biko. He cannot speak same for Edgar Davids or even a Cafu. That one na him personal matter.
And Nope... Van Basten over Haaland for me. Haaland can run all he likes... But Van Basten offers me not just stamina and very decent fitness but Finesse, Higher Football IQ and much more.
If na by covering distances... Our Nigerian U-17 boys in Brazil covered more distances than most teams they faced yet came home after the Round of 16. Covering distances does not cut it for me when it comes to picking a fit athlete for my team. E follow but it is not the ultimate. Nada.
I go for fitness with high yield brains. It beats allout running fitness all day.
I once read that Edgar Davids was jogging the ball in his house while making coffee
The top scorer in the Dutch Eredivisie Cyriel Dessers has sensationally turned down the chance of an international career with Belgium as he hope to be called up to the senior national team of Nigeria soon.
Dessers scored a hattrick for Heracles Almelo in their 4-0 win over ADO Den Haag on Saturday to take his goal count to 11 and also top of the goals chart in the Netherlands. His performance has not gone unnoticed by the handlers of the Belgium national team.
He presently has one goal more than Donyell Malen of PSV and Quincy Promes of Ajax despite playing for a modest team like Heracles. A move to a team in a top league has been mooted and a member of his management team Stirr confirmed they have been contact.
” As expected we have received concrete offers for Dessers but now is not the time to talk about it as he is focused on having a very good season and at the end we will talk about his future out of respect for Heracles “, he told Owngoalnigeria.com.
Speaking on the 24 year old preference for international football, the representative revealed that unofficial contact has taken place with the Belgium FA but Dessers has his mind fixed on representing Nigeria, where he knows he will get more caps.
” It’s not about playing for Belgium. It’s mainly the chance to express yourself on the pitch something which is very possible with Nigeria but not that much a possibility with Belgium. The message was clear when they contacted us, Dessers want to play for Nigeria and that for now remains the situation “.
Meanwhile coach of the senior national team of Nigeria Gernot Rohr has confirmed talks has been held with the 24 year old and the details will be published soon on this portal.

charlesemeka85: i wonder why people keep on worshiping messi when pele and el diego almost single handedly won world cups for their nation. no matter what messi achieves in barca and european football the argentines will never rate him as the greatest but diego armando maradona. diego is god in argentine football
i will recommend you to try and watch argentina's route to glory in mexico 86 to see the wonder of el diego

That's not funny at all.
First of all thanks giving to God that you survived unscathed and no injuries. Mental trauma yes.

Watch 1:50 of this clip and see the way Mahrez trapped the ball. You will see his skills in his locker. Not to talk of Bernardo Da Silva who is just pure mad on the ball but still finds it way difficult under pressure.
Next time your watching Mahrez play, watch the way he traps the ball repeatedly. No matter how hard of high the ball is. Check out skills by Marcelo and the way he traps ball too.
This is something l haven't talked about here.
But that thing called first touch is in many respects what demarcates the top players.
