I don't think the news about clubs holding back their players from travelling this international break is true. These countries where these leagues are played would also be participating, I don't know where OGN is getting their news from.

Very simple one game doesn't make a player.

He has played 87 games in the EPL for Leicester has now played 4 seasons and scored a total of 15 goals.

Thats what many fanatics call exceptional skill and prolific striker. However, that's not my opinion.

He scored a hatrick against a demoralised mentally defeated, relegated and managerless Sheffield United. A very good performance WITHOUT DOUBT, but it doesn't wipe away 4 seasons of mediocrity.

It creates great expectations for him to live up to.

The question is can he replicate and for once show some quality consistency or revert back to his consistent under perfomances.

So maybe Brendan may give him more game time.

From my observation Kelechi is a confidence player. The deterioration of his ability when he is lacking in confidence is more significant than for most other players. To build confidence though you need a good run in the team, not 10 mins this week 20 mins 2 weeks later etc. In 20 (TWENTY) of those 87 games you mentioned he had 10minutes or less on the pitch!! Transfermrkt*

He has never been given a proper run in any team in his career. That being said his goals per minute in all competitions overall so far in his career is indicative that he has something special. He needs to move to a club where he is the main man, starting week in week out over a season THEN we will be in a better position to pass judgement.

Look at Timo Werner and how much support he's getting to get firing. How many minutes did Salah and Lukaku get at Chelsea before they were offloaded? Those are excellent examples of what happens when a player is not given genuine chance and support before being labelled a 'mouse'.

Since the history of the European cup/CL, only two Spanish teams have won it..
Real Madrid & barca..
where are the others in Spain?
England has produced Liverpool, Man u, Chelsea, N'tinham forest, & A.Villa.

So pipe down, even your Barcelona only started being relevant in europe in the mid 2000s...

Maybe the other teams in Spain are busy dominating the Europa league grin

They said 2 head is better then one but here the case is 2 head is better than 5

If we combine the 5 teams from England their champions league aren’t up to 18 being produced by 2 teams from Spain grin

Barca started Being dominant in Europe in 2000s fine but I am glad you watched them win 4 of their 5 champions league

Respect to Liverpool and man united

When will chelsea arsenal and co dominate Europe ?

It's very irritating judging Nacho with the cameos he always gets. a good run of games is needed to boost confidence like you like. Nevertheless, i still blame him for not pushing his way of of Leicester. He needs to play more.

Oladapo was a treat all night. Too bad we lost. Enyimba missed good chances earlier in the game. John Noble is of Enyimba.
Thanks sir, been reading a lot here about that dude, hope he can break out and show all he has. Meanwhile is John Noble the undisputed #1 for Enyimba? If he's not, then he has no business in the SE. And since we are lacking food midfielders would Oladapo be worthy of an invite? I remember Reuben Gabriel before his injury amd move to Scotland, he was quite good.

His goals per minutes when given the opportunity to play has been more than sufficient currency to buy that right with change..

and when that right isn't given in Kelechi's case his output suffers! It is a vicious cycle really and I think he ought to leave the club if he wants to realise his potential, whatever that might be.

The keeper was disappointing and did Enyimba play against 10 men, seems a Pirate player was sent off, if yes, the whole team should be flogged, and the coach given frog jumps or monkey cigar in addition to the flogging.
