The best dribbler and most skillful player we have now is Chidera Ejuke
Forget Okocha he is the greatest dribbler that ever lived.
Im not saying player, i mean when it comes to the art of dribbling nobody (not even messi) dribbles like him.
okocha's dribbling skills needs to be studied by scientists.

So how is a black that grew up in Africa different from the one that grew up in Europe or US??

Ask Pep Guadiola, he has very good explanation. He plays Sterling, Fernadinho but despise Eto, Yaya , KC etc. They think we are not very intelligent. Even Vardy stated Ndidi is only good at tackles and block.

When I see these Naija born chics marrying and drooling over white boys I feel deeply sad. Naija chics born in U.S hardly, rarely marry white boys....na the JJCs

Etim Esin did it.. 1986 world cup qualifier between Nigeria and Ghana, our bredas, at National Stadium Surulere... Ernest Okonkwo was very disappointed
that day. The roof was brought down when he did it. Emmanuel Ebiede also attempted it in an Olympic qualifier against Uganda[ or is it Zimbabawe] then handled by WESTERHOF...in that game Pius Ikedia scored a last gasp goal to send Nigeria to Sidney, Australia.

Don’t mind them. Nigerians are some of the loudest and most ignorant people on the planet. Most Nigerians have no clue what life is like for an average black man in Europe or the United States.

Brendan Rogers may or may not be a racist but the point is, the man hasn’t give Kelechi a chance to stake a claim in the team. I dare him to start Kelechi in 5 consecutive games, allow him to build cohesion with his team mates and see if he can deliver.

As I have said several times before, as a black guy, you gotta be twice as good as the white guy to start. And I am speaking from experience here as well.

My brother , when I call whites racist here these people go dey look me like I am speaking foreign language. Yes , Rogers may not be racist but let KC be an English boy and see if they will not drag Brendan for what it's doing to the boy. They are systematically racist. Their structures are fundamentally racist.

So in Iheanacho's case Rodgers is racist towards him because he was born in Africa and black, you must be a comedian.

This is wider than your scope of understanding, oga.

Leave them to be playing dumb. How can a player put in MOM performance and he is dropped from his team next 2 games. Mind you, similar situations happened on a smaller scale last season. Iheancho self should be partly blamed because he seem comfortable on the bench. The Bobo could had secured a loan move prior to this season

To you it is whatever you can decide but he makes a killing. Forget your fame chasing , oga. Let him milk those whitey until they make up their mind. Iheanacho will shine anywhere he goes. His first touch has improved and he is a deadly finisher! He is still young , so who dey lose ?

Baba just dey Leicester for enjoyment. This thing wey una dey argue no concern am. In fact, I think he even prefers to avoid stressing himself playing football self grin, I sure say deep in his heart Iheanacho dey vex anytime wey him name appear for team list grin. He just wants to sit at home and enjoy his nkwobi and palm wine....haven't you noticed he's growing a beer belly? grin.

Ademola Lookman Unhappy With The Pace Of The Process Of His Switch Of Allegiance From England To Nigeria

owngoalnigeria.com

On loan RB Leipzig wing forward Ademola Lookman is unhappy with the slow pace of his switch of allegiance process from England to Nigeria.

The former England youth international has already started the process of his switch of allegiance from England but it’s yet to be completed.

At Fulham he has so far impressed mightily with the national team of Nigeria the other team he want to be a part of in order to play at the next World Cup in Qatar.

“ He is bitter that’s the word. The entire process is too slow. It’s a year now and we are yet to get over the line with it. He is eager to start his senior international career but the slow process of the entire thing has left him unhappy”, a representative of the player told Owngoalnigeria.com.

“The process is different in England because all the FA’s under the supervision of the United Kingdom have to sign the papers. From the last time we checked two out of the five are yet to sign because they haven’t received it yet”.

Aside Lookman, Reading midfielder Ovie Ejaria is also waiting for the green light from FIFA to complete his switch of allegiance from England to Nigeria.

Have you ever stopped to wonder if Guardiola's disklike of African players has more to do with their football abilities?

You have said it yourself several times that most African players aren't tactically endowed due to the poor state of football infrastructure here..
It makes absolutely no sense to say Guardiola likes Benjamin Mendy but hate Iheanacho because of their skin colour, because they are both black.. Mendy being born in France doesn't make him any less an African.. the same goes to other black players Guardiola has worked with..

They won't tell you this same Brendan Rodgers brought Victor Moses to Liverpool and played him as a 10. Moses flopped but as usual - they blamed Rodgers for it.
The question we should be asking is who should Nacho bench? Jamie Vardy with 8 league goals? Or is it Tielemans or James Maddison(when he's 100 percent fit) as a source of creativity?? Rodgers barely plays with 2 upfront...i don't understand why it's hard for folks to understand.
Nacho needs to push for an exit. Simple. Vardy doesn't look like he'll slow down anytime soon.
Its sad that the likes of West Ham and Aston Villa were looking for strikers and they didn't even consider Nacho. I mean Villa signed Watkins from the championship.
Vardy was not fully fit for that arsenal match,who was supposed to replace him? I don't expect him to bench Vardy but he deserves more minutes than he is getting.

Calling Rodgers a racist may be too extreme. As posted by one moniker here, if you're not twice as good as your white counterpart, you won't get a look in.
But Nacho should be blamed. The easiest option for him was to link up with Pellegrini then but he didn't. He is not getting playing time and my guy is even unmoved about it, abeg make we free Rodgers.

You dey mind those drunkard pundits? grin

Even Man utd that has been shitty in the league sef, the best teams from other leagues can't breach a their defence. PSG with all the Neymar , Mbappe only had to score them through Martial own goal. while a free scoring Liepzig became an impotent against them.

The fact is that, the EPL teams have got stronger this season and not the other way round. Every match is now madly contested like a final in the league.

O pari

stop making up excuses for Iheanacho's performance at Leicester. At Newcastle Martins had Viduka and Owen to compete with, it still didn't stop him from doing well there, Drogba kept top white strikers on the bench at Chelsea, Aiyegbeni was exceptional in England as well while you are here daring Rodgers to start Iheanacho is 5 straight games while Vardy at 33 is clearly performing better than him, is that not bias on your part? So if your were Rodgers you would bench Vardy just because you want Iheanacho to build cohesion with his team mates.

Rodgers hasn't been fair with Nacho,but it has nothing to do with his skin colour...

Rodgers even brought Balotteli to Liverpool... I don't think somebody like Balo would have agreed to play under Rodgers if he knew he was racist..
Though Balo later had issues with members of the squad, especially Gerrard.

All in all, Rodgers hasn't been fair with Nacho... He can actually start with Vardy on the pitch..either as a supporting striker,or on the flanks...
But the man is not a racist, that I am sure of
