Wilfred Ndidi getting better

It’s really a joy to see him continue to grow and develop his game this season, doesn’t always have a great game and still does the silly things once in a while but this boy is surely a much better DM today than he was last year. His ability to break up plays and make tackles has improved a lot, he works his socks off so much that he’s often too tired late in the 2nd. If you remove him from that Leicester lineup they’ll concede goals at a much higher rate .

My only concern is that he doesn’t seem to take shots at goal like he used to, he has probably been asked not to. The combination of him and Onazi breaking things up and protecting the defense in Russia will be a major advantage for SE even though they’re not the best at bring the ball up. Happy to see our boys getting better. I expect Ndidi to be on the radar of the big teams soon. Btw, wouldn’t Arsenal be better off with him than Elneny?

Well done Wilfred! :clap: :clap:

:agree:

I think playing alongside Iborra (unlike Drinkwater) has really expanded Ndidi's game range...

I was extremely pleased with his performance today
Particularly his long range passing and breaking up of opposing play
I hope Rohr takes note of the subtle but important difference between the role he plays for Leicester and the no-mans land position he occupies in SE colors

He is a top 5 DM in EPL and one of the most underated DM.He will start for alot of big name team in EPL today.
Leicester fans look at him like their new Kante and some say he is not far from Kante.

My Top 6 are Kante, Dier, Matic, Ndidi, Fernadinho. Gueye.

Gueye was the best DM in the EPL last season (yes, better than Kante), but his form has really tailed off this season. His entire team is faltering and he's been in poor form as well.

Ndidi is one of my favourite Nigerian players.

I didn't end up finishing the match, due to the time difference. But I was very impressed with what I saw.

This guy has the potential to be a COMPLETE midfielder! Yes, a lot of room for improvement, but he has shown potential in EVERY department. If he continues to improve, this guy could become something else entirely. I won't go on to make bold statements (although I really want to), but I can't remember the last time a Nigerian midfielder showed promise in every department (at the senior level).

Was it about yesterday's game (which I missed)?

He must have done really well becos forumers have also been very critical of his game as recently as a few weeks ago.
It's hard to tell unless you watch the games yourself.
But I'm happy for the guy, for Nigeria and for myself. :D

Generally much positivity about Ndidi's performance yesterday at Leicester:

What was the cumulative score when we played Everton last season? :taunt:

I am not too concerned about Wilfred, he is a bonafied starter for both club and country..I can state he is capable of starting for any EPL team...oh and guess what he wears green white green ..with Nididi and Onazi, our boywonder can be further upfront, creating and dictating play... so we are set..now we must work on good backups for all 3..

Russia wont be easy

I watched all of the game yesterday, monitoring Ndidi of course. I commented in the game thread yesterday about his improvement. I had commented last season on a few areas I felt he could improve upon at the time. He has clearly improved. I said he could be top 3 DM in the world. He's not there yet but I know he can by this time next year. Continue on my country man.
