Why don't you calm down, and wait for it today. Dzeko this Dzeko that. You must think football is all about i beat you so if you beat that one i fit beat one. I know you are well motivated by your hate for the premier league. But that's ok. Na only you know say Traore go gas out before 60 minutes. Besides na only am dey play? If we tell you say make you watch ball na fantasy league you go dey play.

Arabiandude:

Inter, 2.10 odd, 20k to win 42k... I won it today.
Don't worry, you see the way Sevilla outclassed and beat Roma? That's how they are also gonna outclassed and beat Wolves.

It's a one leg affair and a neutral venue, Traore will gas out before 60mins because Sevilla plays a higher and better pressing game.

You think wolves can beat Roma whom Sevilla manhandled with all the Dzeko, Kolarov and others? This is Europe league and if they both don't meet, it's gonna be Inter vs Sevilla final.

You no go gree leave this guy.

ChrisKels:


So good he ain't considered even when United are reportedly playing shit

Subzero047:


He was playing in the division 1 when he was invited, do you want him to be discarded if he keeps playing well because his club is relegated?

He has not been invited since after AFCON, I think the only one he got was a last minute replacement for an injured player

barackodam:


Nope. It's never about the percentage.

It's always about representation.

"we sef get pesin for there"

There was a time Yoruba's were the most in the NT. And there's time Easterners(including south) were the most.

The goal is to make sure each of the 3 region has a player in the starting lineup.

If you have the time, disprove that. Pretty sure you can't.

Call it coincidence if you like, but Shehu has only been in the team to fulfill quota requirements

I'm interested, when was that?

Osimhen being the centre point of Lille's gameplay simply shows how good he is,don't you think..
Tammy on the other hand has been benched several times by a 33 years old Giroud and now,a much better striker has been signed to give him competition or maybe bench him..





Osimhen got 4 assists and created 5 big chances in the league this season.. Tammy on the other hand got just 1 assists and created 1big chances..

U self judge am..who is the better team player?unless u want to stick with your "stats are indicative " bla bla



Napoli are one of the most tactically balanced team in Italy and maybe Europe... They are a team that have maintained a possesive attacking style of play in the past 5 seasons despite having different managers.. They have/had some very fine players like Mertens,Insigne,Milik,Callejon,Lozano,Koulibaly,etc... Do u really think they would spend that much money on Osimhen if they thought he wasn't good enough to play for them?
On the other hand,Tammy was quite lucky to play for Chelsea.... If they really wanted him,they would have called him back afrer his back to back fine season in tge championship..instead,they waited until a transfer ban came in before giving him and other youth players a chance..
Osimhen worked his way to the top...it wasn't handed to him on a platter of gold!

Actually it's the contrary, Victor being the center point and focal point of Lille, shows how poor the team is not how good.

The term team is anchored in its entirety on COLLECTIVE RESPONSIBILITY AND PARTICIPATION. The opposite of that is singular responsibility and participation or focus.

When we talk about team work it's about cooperation, sharing responsibility, fusion and convergence of tasks in a collective.

Osimhen is the quintessential number 9 in Lille, everything is about him and for him in the team it's a singular approach.

Osimhen scored 13 goals in the French league one and his team 35 that's over 40% of the goals by one man. The closest person to him had 7 goals in Loic Remy.

Now compare to Chelsea 69 goals in the EPL, Tega 15, Pulisic 9, Willian 9, Giroud 8, Mount 7.

There is really nothing to discuss it's obvious as daylight unless your in darkness.

A heat map reflects more the team strategy not the individual attributes of a player.

Tega earned the right to play in Chelsea after consistent continous outstanding perfomances in the Championship and EPL over three seasons. He is proven and tested.

Everything you have written about Napoli is assumptive deduction by self birthed perception.

Finally, l asked you to name the player attributes that Victor exceeds Tega with to make him better ❓ ❓ But you could not find one. You have avoided the question.

chelsea fans don't rate the guy anymore

TheLoneCitizen:
Fotomac and Aksam Spor are reporting that Besiktas have reached a 2M agreement to sign 24yr old Chuba Akpom.

Fenerbahce are trying to hijack the deal. The deal became complicated due to Champions League football.

Besiktas want to sign the player before August 20 or else Akpom will not be eligible for their Champions League qualifier on August 24.

But the catch is this: Besiktas' opponent on Aug 24 will be Paok(Akpom's team) and being a one-legged tie, Paok do not want to strengthen a champions league rival.

Akpom also might be reluctant to deny his future team Champions League football. While Paok doubt his concentration.

In this catch-22, Fenerbahce have taken advantage by offering a 4-year contract worth 1.5M yearly to Akpom.

COMMUNIQUE OF THE MEETING OF NFF EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE HELD VIA VIDEO CONFERENCE ON MONDAY, 10TH AUGUST 2020



After consultations with the leadership of the Federal Ministry of Youth and Sports, the Board endorsed the proposal from the Secretariat for the lump sum of $2,000,000.00 (Two Million American Dollar Only) to be shared across the various Clubs and governing bodies of the various Leagues, viz Nigeria Professional Football League, Nigeria National League, Nigeria Women Football League and the Nigeria Nationwide League, as a booster for their preparation ahead of the 2020/2021 League Season.


The total sum is made up of $1,000,000 (being FIFA’s support for restarting the football season); $500,0000 (being FIFA’s dedicated support for women’s football); $300,000 (CAF’s support to its Member Associations); $200,000 (NFF’s support from Sponsors’ Funds).

Messi is the best player in the world how many times has he won the Balon Dor ❓

Barcelona as a team is excellent but that excellence complements the best player on the world.

They are totally and completely two different situations.

In Salah's first season in the premier league, he scored 32 out of Liverpool's 84 premier league goals..that's really roughly 38%.. does that make Liverpool a poor team at that time?
If u check Barca and Real Madrid goal chart for the past 6 seaaons, u would notice that Messi and Ronaldo contributed to the bulk of those goals..
U can go further down to the premier league and look at Leicester with Vardy,Spurs with Kane, Arsenal with Aubameyang.. are those poor teams?

U have no point here.... Osimhen's abilities was what made him such an important player to Lille..the same can't be said of Tammy who was benched by an old Giroud..
And I will say it again, Chelsea's transfer ban was what gave Tammy the opportunity to get a starting shirt at Chelsea..
Everybody knows that Chelsea under Roman Abrahamovic hardly give youth players a chance! They spend heavily!.. Tammy probably would be back in the championship by now if not for the ban... That's the simple truth!

Regarding Napoli, there are no assumptions there...just the facts... Napoli is an elite team in Europe!
If you don't know,u can ask Klopp... I'm sure u have his phone number...he will tell u how good they are!


To ur last paragraph, let me repeat it again, Osimhen is a better team player than Tammy...

Aside the goals, he got 4 assists and created 5 big chances!

Tammy on the other hand got just 1 assists and created just 1 chance!

Osimhen is also versatile...He can play from the wings and is good at dropping deep to hustle for the ball.. if that doesn't prove that he is a better team player,maybe the word "team player" has another meaning in Peckham..

FIFA Relief Funds: Super Eagles Austria Camp To Cost $150,000

The proposed training camp for the Super Eagles in Austria in September would cost the Nigeria Football Federation, NFF, $150,000.

The president of the federation, Amaju Pinnick was quoted to say that the funds for the camping and two friendly matches in Austria will be gotten from the FIFA Relief funds.

The NFF had already received the first instalment of FIFA Forward fund of One million dollars ($1 million) and additional Three hundred thousand dollars ($300,000) from CAF.

However, NFF chieftains want the Eagles’ stars to be committed and that their clubs would release them for the game.

Though, consultation with the team’s stars’ European clubs would be conducted by Super Eagles’ manager Gernot Rohr.

Meanwhile, feedback from the Super Eagles coach, Gernot Rohr on the assignment will determine if the federation would commit money into the exercise coming up in September.

According to the source, Sportinglife, the NFF chiefs want to seize the opportunity of having two European countries in Austria during the period to have the Eagles play training games with them, though the matches would be non-scoring since September isn’t a FIFA-free window where points accrue to such international friendlies.

In fact, NFF’s tentative approach to getting the Eagles to converge on Austria rests with the fact that September isn’t a FIFA-free window which means that the European clubs are not duty-bound to release their players to their countries for international matches, especially during this Coronavirus pandemic.

CAN WE JUST AGREE WITH KOMEKN THAT TAMMY ABRAHAM IS BETTER THAN OSIMHEN. THAT HE IS THE BEST YOUNG STRIKER IN THE WHOLE WORLD SO WE CAN MOVE ON.
This kind thing don tire person. Person go come nairaland na to scroll like 12 pages na only Tammy, Tega u go see full everywhere,

Dan. It's fine. Let it rest. I believe it's pretty obvious out there that Osimhen and Haaland are the leading U-23 young strikers/centre forwards (#9s) in world football today. When I add Mbappe(obviously the #1 although not a #9 but can be classed a striker/attacker), Lautaro, Rashford, Gabriel Jesus then you will see that Tammy doesn't crack that top 5. Werner should be in there too but he is 24 now.

Now Tammy's stats are indeed impressive enough for a striker but he is no way on the level of a lad who bagged same number of goals in all competitions despite having 10 games to play. Tammy played a full season in all competitions and still couldn't outscore a lad with 10 games to spare. The gap is clear.

Additionally, this is Tammy's first statistically good season of top flight football. Osimhen have had two already and headed for his third. Mbappe have been good from Monaco. Tammy is good alright but scoring 15 EPL goals doesn't make him world class as some ran the narrative that if he was a Super Eagle with these stats, we would tag him world class. Lol... That is very untrue and blatantly misleading. Yakubu did more than this and was never tagged World class even before his 2010 WC miss.

Iheanacho bagged numbers in his first pro season that saw him become the deadliest and most clinical forward in Europe BASED on GOALS per mins ratio but we never called him World class. We always said he had the potentials to become one judging from his first pro season in less mins at a top club like Man city while he was still 18-19 yrs old.

In all, I think it's fine. Let it rest. Tammy is good and has done enough statistically this season to enter the conversation of being among the best young strikers but he certainly isn't in the top 5 of such conversation. And this is the difference. Osimhen is in there. Haaland is in there. And so is Mbappe himself.

Make I rest

But if Southgate replies my post with some misinformation, I will give it back to him..
He iw obviously not fonr with Osimhen yet.

From saying he won't make the youth team of a championship team, saying he could end up like Christantus Macaulay and now trying to downplay his exploits in France!
I'm having none of that..

If not for Chelsea transfer ban and the Covid-19 pandemic that disrupted French football,I doubt we will be having this convo...
