What kind of nonsense inferiority complex is this? smh...

Omeruo's the only one in the Championship "good" enough to play for our National team. The rest (U23) might be good enough for our various youth teams.

U think so? If Oduamadi can play for SE, as horrible as he is then I rest my case. Carl Ikeme and Tom Adeyemi(great game today) are good enough to play for SE

4 Goals in 12 International games isn't a record a "Horrible" player would have, especially for a Winger, his form only started to dip when Keshi was trying to play him in the hole.

And even then I wouldn't pick him in my best Nigerian 23; rather than leave AC Milan, dude wants to be sent on loan forever.

Would Tom Adeyemi bench any of the following: Mikel, Onazi, Nosa, Azeez, Ogude, Izunna, Raheem Lawal, Haruna, Joel Obi, John Chibuike.

Sorry but Ikeme is just not it. He's way too mistake prone; something than seems psychological and is not International class IMO. Dude reminds me of Heurelho Gomes

Ikeme is good enough to seriously challenge for a place in the squad. He's better than Agbim from what I've seen whilst we're on the subject of error prone goalkeepers.

My guy, even an Agbim who was pretty much inactive for almost a year, wouldn't make some of the school-boy errors Ikeme has made.

Ikeme has the 'misfortune' of playing in a country where every second of every game is captured by high definition TV cameras.
I am not convinced he is more 'error-prone' than the average GK. One shudders to think of what errors the likes of Agbim and even Ejide have committed not caught by the cameras.

Obviously u don't a clue of what u are talking about, Odu is a wing forward not WINGER. Secondly, he is not a SE material, I don't need to repeat this for u. Tom Adeyemi offers more in term of mobility, dynamism and very imposing than Izunna & Ogude.

So I have no clue because I see a winger & a wide forward as pretty much the same thing? :lol:

I see you fell for my trap. So out of those 10 players I listed, you could only pick two (which are quite debatable imo. :taunt:

I don't need to explain to u that the highlighted players played a different positions with comparison to Tom Adeyemi, so technically they are out of d debate

My guy...

Some of Agbim's mistakes at CHAN weren't simply school boy errors, they came with Master Degrees.

Ole Gunnar Solskjaer: Tom Adeyemi will be a top player

Cardiff City manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer believes new signing Tom Adeyemi will play a big part in the Bluebirds campaign this season.

The 22-year-old signed from Birmingham on a three-year deal has played in the club's draw at Blackburn and 3-1 win against Huddersfield on Saturday.


“He wins the ball really well for us, switches the play and scores goals as well”

Ole Gunnar Solskjaer
Cardiff host Wigan in the Championship on Tuesday and Solskjaer has tipped Adeyemi to have a good season.

"He's going to be a top, top player for us," said Solskjaer.
