Let's get something right. Ighalo is a good striker, very good one. But with our talents now, does his quality merit his coming out of retirement at 31 playing in the middle east?, I don't think so. 1 Like |

zuchyblink: A player that was just the top scorer at the last ANCQ, ANC is definitely good enough to play for Nigeria in 2021. Although, Nigeria is bigger than any individual and should never beg anyone to come out of retirement, but if ighalo willingly decides to reverse his decision, I am in Support. Enough is enough our players should stop ending their international career prematurely 2 Likes |

Clementoke: Please don't insult Ighalo. If he comes out of retirement, he will still be the first name on this list. Let these young guys go and become the top scorer at ANCQ, ANC or score 16 goals for Nigeria before they compare theirself to ighalo. I didn't even mention sign for a "Big team". Personally, if I'm picking 3 on this list, Osimehn Ighalo Iheanacho The remaining 3 are superb talents performing at FARMERS league. I want to see how they perform at the big 3. Remember, ighalo was a 1 season wonder at EPL for Watford 1 Like |

Clementoke: You don enter my trap ,you no suppose ask this question Oliver Giroud ,France Jose Fonte ,was called up by the Portuguese national team coach while playing at China and was 35 years old then (mind you Portugal have younger defenders in their league ) and he is still being called at 37 while playing for Lille Max Gradel , Ivory Coast Gervinho , Ivory Coast El Arabi ,Morocco Thiago Galhardo ,Brazil ![]() Iago Aspas Spain Jesus Navas How many players are even world class up there ? I am not putting Ramos and Thiago Silva Chilleni Bonucci Pepe because I consider them as goat defenders Once a player is 31/32 he is no more needed at the national team according to you guys even if he is performing well ,rohr gave nwakaeme only one chance and some of you wanted him to impress with that one chance just because he was almost 30 then ,you can imagine the beer parlour analysis ![]() If I am not mistaken 90 percent of people sees balogun as our best defender and dude is 32 ,we should not forget his recent struggles at Brighton before he was back to his best 1 Like |

Clementoke: The level that most of these guys are now are the level that ighalo was 6 years ago. Remember, the Bobo played at Lyn, udinese and even scored 20 goals in the segunda to get Grenada promoted back to LA liga? My point is that he has passed this guy's level and don't need to be disrespected |

Who are the top strikers doing well in Europe top divisions, based on goals contributed? 1. Paul Onuachu. He is the number 1 with 27 goals (25 goals and 2 assists) contributed. No dispute. 2. Terem Moffi. The number 2 with 12 goals (10 goals and 2 assists) contributed so far. 3. Simmy Nwankwo. 3rd on the list with 10 goals (8 goals and 2 assists) contributed this season. 4. Kelechi Iheanacho. The 4th on the list with 10 goals (6 goals and 4 assists) contributed so far. 6 Likes

5. Taiwo Awoniyi - The most underrated of all. But he was ahead of number 2 to 4 with 9 goals (5 goals and 4 assists) contributed already before dropping to the 5th position due to injury just 2 weeks ago. I believe the coach should choose from these set of players if fit for the upcoming games. Osimhem, Maja and co should keep working hard. Sadiq should work very hard to play in a first division before he should be considered for the national team ahead of the aforementioned players. 2 Likes
