The point no be say you no fit get players from there. You fit, but na very high-risk players. There's a high chance that bringing in a player supposedly doing well in the "backwater leagues" will fail in the premier league, especially cos some of the players you could get of that amount are still budding. So quite understand why they would turn to the championship or other premier league players, cos, for the most part, these guys are used to the premier league or to something of a similar level of difficulty/rigority. So as a recruiter you gotta make a choice. Do you want to take the risk? Or do you want someone that has a higher probability of fitting right in. Now there's the problem that the players you get from the championship/Premier league are below average anyway, why would their former teams not renew their contract unless they are from the championship or you are offering a better salary. Besides some EPL teams still have decent academies. andrewbaba44: 1 Like |

sheyishemba: Why do you say lampard will go for Gilmour over Jorginho in CMF? imo the reverse is the case and it depends on how we want to play, Gilmour is not yet accustomed to first team football and we saw it in the last two matches especially against Crystal Palace you saw how Jorginho calm the game down when he entered.... |

Lille are desperate to sell Osimhen due to financial crisis. They also promised Napoli that they owed them one after Nicolas Pepe rejected them in favour of Arsenal. This is why Osimhen is delaying, because it seems Lille are pressuring him to sign the deal. Osimhen isn't taking time to ponder the deal, but is delaying in the expectation of an offer from the EPL. Everton have already shown firm interest in the player and are expected to bid for him. Osimhen doesn't want to make the same mistake he made when he moved to Wolfsburg having been pressured. Italian papers say that De Laurentiis wants to close the deal as soon as possible to avoid a mockery at the last moment as happened with Pépé. The Napoli fan base are becoming frustrated with Osimhen. |

andrewbaba44: Me I don't know why he keeps Lumping Rashford together with all those flops. Someone that is just having the best season of his career so far. The guy just dey yarn dust with that Rashford addition. I'm sure Chelsea fans won't dare call him a flop. Even Welbeck had a wonderful career before he left Man Utd and also did well at Arsenal too. |

Not when you buy multiple players at a price totaling about 150 million. andrewbaba44: |

The fact that Osimhen still hasn't given a definite response to Napoli shows that he isn't very keen on the move.. I don't agree with those saying he shouldn't move to the EPL.. If Napoli isn't really his preferred destination, nobody should force it on him... He has the right to decide for himself.. |
Re: "The Super Eagles Thread: The Road To AFCON 2025 And 2026 World Cup by benji93: 11:30am On Jul 10, 2020 |
Guy, no make i vex you ooo. . Rashford is Trash? Which kind weed you dey smoke. .Besides Rashford has improved over the years. They don't all have to be at the level of Ronaldo, Messi, Lewandowski e.t.c, and still be very good, possibly contributing to multiple championships. If your argument is that English players are usually overhyped, then i agree. Even some of those players you mentioned barring injury played some decent football over a period of 2/3 years. humility33: |

benji93: Me sef dey wonder where the Rashford talk is coming from. Someone that compared to previous seasons where the hype was insane, this season is the best of them so far, and yet someone somewhere is calling him a flop. I'm sure Chelsea fans will not like this kind of flop to play against them |

humility33: Slowed down a bit or got injured. Don't forget that if not for Covid 19 he would have missed the better part of the season and even Euro 2020 too sef, except if England just wants to risk him just like we risked an Unfit Ighalo for AFCON last year |
