i think Moses needs a partner in crime that understands him in the team, like the Emenike-Ideye pair.

I noticed that after he dribbled, no one came out to receive him pass, no one. I have a problem though, he is selfish. and we don't need this at the mundial where we would be punished for that.


good angle, our defenders have improved in their comfy kinda passing and accuracy.


Balogun is low on confidence, he would have made mistakes if he was at CB. He did well at LB though.

balogun was a CB oo, infact i rate him better than ekong, ekong dont know how to pass but clears the ball.

the positive was just the defence, I didnt see any pressure from the polish, they were just nodding the ball to the ground.

The only positive from this game was the defence and goalkeeper, if not i dont we did anything good, no connection between the defenders and attackers, no coordination in the midfielder, I bet if that balogun clearance had been counted ( cos it was clearly a goal) we wouldnt have been saying mosses sabi dribble.

To me mosses played like a slowpoke, he is not a good teamplayer at all, only releases ball when he is under pressure, and that free kick shld av been taken by iheanacho.

joel obi is not near to be a replacement to mikel, he played rubbish today couldnt hold the ball or manage to keep it on the ground, the guy na big flop joor.

mosses has a mental issue, too selfish, doesnt pass and when he manages to cross na empty space this is unprofessional.

As africans we believe anything white is better than black, ndidi and matic needs no comparison because ndidi is far more better than him currently.

Someone said matic pushed mikel out of chelsea, which signifies that he is better than mikel, this is pure falacy, in no way will matic be better than mikel both stats or by trophies won.

I rest my case.

It is just that Simon got into the team first. Many of these other boys are outshining him in Belgium.

Exactly, simon is reaping what he sow in the past now by getting a call up, cos currently he is not the best winger in belgium right now now, u have to call onyekuru, kalu, olayinka and dennis before u can find moses, and i believe simon is most suitable for african football compared to others thats why he got the nod ahead of them, but now its world cup he have to up his game cos there many waiting to snap up that position.

What he is saying is that no one is calling for his invitation, cos I have also observed him too, the guy is good and should be looked into, unfortunately that winger area is too competitive right now.

So musa can play the Left back, this guy is full of energy and can easily displace echiejile in that position.

My God if I didn't watch the match that's how this guys comment would make me feel Moses was trash.
Moses had a solid game, was one of Chelsea best players in the game.
When Alonso misplace passes nobody will talk, the very few mistakes Moses had which is normal for footballers, they will come and say crap like Moses had a bad game. The fact that he was subbed early does not mean he had a bad game.


Oga, moses was the worst player on the pitch after morata, defensively he was fantastic but going foward he was so blunt, i wonder if this is what he his going to play at world cup, am beginning to think that position has really affected his mentality.

What u dont know is that diabete was bought as a replacement for mahrez and he is not a striker, the only person nacho is competing is vardy, unfortunately leicester cant play two strikers considering the opponent they are playing, watch ur words cos even nacho is getting more game time than gray and no one has said gray has dropped form.

All you have to do to retrieve it is log in to your google account to access it.

Clap clap clap ,,, Bravo!.....

Post after post, ... Points after point,... You have provided both pictorial and statistical evidences against every lie from @komern, @forgiveness and other bias doomsayers

But they will still argue it.... Even when it is spread out plain before them

These lots scare me with their segregation against Nigerian born footballers

I mean, how can someone call a "white" color "black" all because they can't see beyond their nose?

This is no longer ordinary... This is pure MADNESS!!

These guys are currently behaving like the whites,.. They are racially segregating against Nigerian born players. More like .."nothing good can come out of Nigeria "..its already a stereotype, no matter what you do or say,..the FB's are better in their eyes!

To them iheanacho will and can never come out of his rough patch, no matter how hard he trains!... Isn't this mentality the same with what Puel has against him? undecided ... A white Puel is totally against your Player and you have decided to join him in condemning your brother because you now live in a white man land?

You play Solanke who has an English flag to his name for 10 matches without a goal, yet you keep on playing him. Whereas you play iheanacho only in cup games or give him 5 minutes cameos and he manages to get a goal still only to drop him and castigate him into abyss.

Why ... Is it because he has a Nigerian flag to his name on flashscore?

These guys double standards stinks to high heavens

Brother, you have said it all, I strongly know that English teams favor there own before others, i guess this is the latest trend or may be its becoming obvious, once u switch nationality and havent cemented ur place in a squad u r likely to be dropped on the bench.

Tammy n solanke have lots a games in there hand this season more than Iheanacho and iwobi, this is not coincidence its a well written plan, i wont blame the teams afterall its their league.

What pains me is that we africans will refuse to see this and begins to castigate our own. This policy is working for england and they will stick to it make it easier for foreign borns to play for them, and definetly we will lose good players to them also.

Yeah bro, you can say that again. Even if o ly the championship clubs (in the lower division) are ready to buy or loan him, its better. What we're after (and he should be too) is regular team football and constant improvement

My broda, He didn't play that bad but the coach body language on how man City scored the first goal wasn't good since he lost the ball in the midfield...I doubt he would really play KC again!!! KC need to make a loan move to play consistently during the transfer window to gain his confidence back b4 the world cup.. His confidence is starting to take a hit!!!

His first touch has always been his biggest undoing, wonder why he hasn't improve on it in the last 1year..he really needs special drills and game time to improve that aspect of his game..he doesn't have the strength to hold the ball against strong defenders, the only thing he can do is work on his first touch and movement making it impossible for a defender to constantly get the ball off you when

he is backing the post..

If I was KC i wont take your advice, and its too early to move out yet, let him stay there and learn football, talent is good but practice is better, he is talented but now he needs to learn to improve.

Hope you know Henry is his own man. Like Vicmo, Henry is a winger who hardly play with the striker. He hardly cross, any space in the box with Defenders, he does it alone. Then defensively if we lose possession, he doesn't have the strength & so does Iwobi. Our second goal against Argentina was possible because kc didn't have the skillset but gifted with an eye for a telepathic pass to pick out Alex. With Henry, he will take them on & they will crowd him out in due course. Most tactical teams will do that to him.


Abeg which kind lie be that?, that henry is his own man?, where in the hell is it done in football?, henry is a good team player, he has a good passing accuracy if you watch his games you will notice that he has an eye for a pass but most time teodocyke always wastes it or unlucky. Henry is a guy that is not goal shy once he sight a post he shoots and most times score. After all in football a little bit selfishness is needed for one to stand out. He will easily fit into a wing back cos i seem him collects balls from the midfielder and push the attack, he majorly has a hand in terms of buildup play leading to a goal.

Did he play as a wing-back or as a wing-forward?

How was his performance "defensively"?

watched first half, his defensive abilities needs more work cos he is not as efficient defensively so he may not be really suitable for a wing back, but his attacking is more efficient than vic mo.

Yes your observations are spot on. He normally combines well with Iwobi. I don't know why he played selfish. Iwobi would have given him that ball back.
For that his free kick though, GOD bless his left foot. It's been so long we scored such sweet free kick. The Argies gk suffered but all in vain.

There is what I believe and thats practice, Iheanacho tried dribbling an argentine defender twice but failed also Iwobi tried dribbing an argentine defenders prior to his goal twice and failed also but latter on he got things right.

Iheanacho decision in not squaring the ball to me was intentional, he purposely didnt want to pass the ball then cos on a normal good day he always pass, i guess he has been practicing on his dribbling abilities but unluckily he failed that doesnt mean he should stop dribbling. If you notice that during the algeria games he was the one taking the freekicks and all was not converted, but he tried it on the argentines and succeded, i believe with practice he will be able to take on defenders.

I believe we shld encourage him and not discourage him in his development.

Anderlecht Coach Still Unhappy With Henry : His Dribbles Are Negative

Anderlecht manager Hein Vanhaezebrouck is unhappy with the contribution of Nigeria international Henry Onyekuru in the last two games in the Belgian First Division A, saying his dribbles were negative over the course of ninety minutes.

The Everton loanee is Anderlecht's top scorer in the league with seven goals from fifteen appearances.

''Henry has to stop thinking that he’s only about his goals... The sum of his dribbles must be positive after 90 minutes. Not negative, as now,'' Vanhaezebrouck stated, according to nieuwsblad.be.

''Especially if he has so much space and as little opposition as against Kortrijk, he should avoid simple ball losses.

''Yes, last week against Mouscron he scored the winning goal, but I expect more from him.''

Onyekuru has notched eight goals in all competitions for the Belgian champions, but only three were scored in front of the club's fans at the Stade Constant Vanden Stock in Brussels.

Anderlecht will host Uche Agbo's Standard Liege in the Cup on Wednesday.

Na wao for this coach oo, if this guy is playing badly why put him on for 90mins??, am thinking this man wants to stop henry from leaving in january making everton think he is not what they need.

The reason why Batman dark knight succeded was not as a result of batman but cos of the maniac joker, who brought craziness and comedy to it.

kinggSamuel:
I Prefer marvel movies and I will explain With 2 reasons. 1. The MCU. started in 2008 setting up one successful superhero movie after another before everything culminated in the avengers in 2012,2015 with another one coming in 2019. The marvel team steadily set up their cinematic universe introducing one character after another and all this is what made the avengers to Succed astronomically. DC on the other hand released man of steel in 2011 and bcoz the wanted to rush up a cinematic universe. They produced BvS, suicide squad. Suicide squad was a team up produced without adequately introducing the characters individually.
2. DC movies are too dark and dull. BvS was the crescendo. It looked as if it was covered with a dark green filter through out. When someone settles down and buys a movie ticket or downloads a movie he wants to catch fun, laugh and enjoy bright scenery seldomly does he want to brood and unravel mysteries. It worked for the Dark Knight because the batman is associated with darkness, fear and seriousness. Other DC films should be fun and colourful. Thor Ragnarok and guardians of the galaxy 2 are taking in millions with Thor at 750m Dollars And counting and guardians at 890m dollars. The avengers made 1.5 b dollars and with the way justice league is going It will not make more than 900m dollars at the box office.

Bro u r on point, DC is making there movies too dark and making it base on batman character, its not suppose to be so.

Marvel movies right now are far better no doubt, but that’s as best as it gets. But as far as comics and animated cartoons are concerned, till today DC > Marvel. I grew up reading comics and watching loads of hardcore superhero cartoons, not the Tom & Jerry and Sponge Bob types for kids of today grin!

Let me explain something about Superman to you. In the comic world, Superman holds himself back and uses maybe like 10% of his capabilities when dealing with others in order not to indiscriminately kill anyone and anything in his way with impunity and nobody can bring him to justice. So he always plays cool and limits himself most of the time, always playing Mr Nice Goody-two-shoes. But when you witness the real power of Superman, he’s not just an extraordinary Superhero, he’s almost a god! He killed Darkseid, even Doomsday. In the alternate universe where Superman was evil, only Superman could defeat Superman, nobody else. Superman in his true self has virtually unlimited strength and power, genius intelligence with speed faster than the speed of light - only The Flash in his fastest prime (speed force) can outrun him. In the comic world, Superman bench pressed planets. Do you know the kind of power it takes to bench press one planet alone, talk less of “planets”. Superman lifted Mageddon, which is millions of times heavier than the sun. Another time they tested his strength and he lifted an object that weighed about 200 quintillion tons (= 200 billion billion tons) and he lifted it with only one hand grin. The evil Superman (aka Ultraman) lifted Book of pages alone, something the good Superman tried to lift and couldn’t. Equal strength, equal abilities but different attitudes, which further proves that Superman (good guy) always holds back. There was a time he got pissed and knocked WonderWoman unconscious with one punch only, the almighty Amazonian Princess grin . Even Batman always carries Kryptonite with him everywhere he goes just in case Superman ever goes rogue. And Batman is the ultimate standard in the Comicverse. If Batman is afraid of something, then everyone else had better be 1 million times more afraid of that thing grin because Rule #1 of the Comicverse “BATMAN IS ALWAYS RIGHT”. Rule #2, “The answer is always Batman” grin


This is the most famous quote from Superman:

“That man won't quit as long as he can still draw a breath [*Superman talking about Batman*]. None of my teammates will. Me [Superman talking about himself]? I've [Superman] got a different problem. I [Superman] feel like I live in a world made of cardboard, always taking constant care not to break something, to break someone. Never allowing myself to lose control even for a moment, or someone could die. But you can take it, can't you, big man? What we have here is a rare opportunity for me to cut loose and show you just how powerful I really am.” grin grin grin Now see the clip below to see a little glimpse of what happens when Superman doesn’t hold himself back :

https://youtube.com/watch?v=zexXH3lS8Uw




You seem fascinated with comics, i know the OP is talking about movies and marvel is the best.

Probably superman will do better as a villain than a hero then will Dc mean business.

The Irony is that DC cant produce decent movies now cos they so much overpowered their character from superman, wonderwoman and aquaman and DC characters majorly r myths not even realistic.

Are you sure Marvel existed before DC? Check well bros!!! Many characters in Maevel have an equivalent in DC. Heck, they kinda imitated DC...

I was expecting this argument. It's been argued here previously by people like iice and facts pasted.

Search for the canons and read. No matter the version of Hulk, he can't defeat other versions of Superman. Hulk is NOT and has NEVER been on par with Superman!!!

OP, Marvel wins in terms of movies (love their character developments and how each connects) but when it comes to comics and cartoons, DC always has better storylines. DC equally has better superheroes compared to MCU.


storylines??, what do u mean by that??, r u talking of comics or big screen movies??, cos marvel has gotten there storyline figured out since, DC just rushed and combined justice league.

They should also kill Aquaman off. It will do Aquaman and DC a whole lot of good.

Actually the place aquaman sat on the laso of truth, where he started saying rubbish.

actually acquaman didnt do justice to d movie, he was even more darker than the batman and i was like who is the batman here?,
jason momoa shld not have played aquaman, batman might even be better for him, DC failed in character development.

Thor Ragnarok is much better than Justice League 2017 even though the story was a bit of a cliche.

Bro that Justice league was whak, the online nice things is they added a comic relief unlike batman vs superman, but in terms of combact and storyline, they bleeped up bro.
