Kalu will develop into a top class footballer if he adds the final ball to his game. His potential is immense.

Who will be next?

Its a mouth watering prospect to imagine having Kalu and Chukwueze on the flanks, Osimhen in the middle and Iwobi behind them.
Immense!
The last time we had such quality was the 'golden era' when we had Finidi on the right, Amunike on the left, Yekini centre and Amokachi/Kanu slightly behind.
Since then we've never had such a 'complete' diamond-shape operating at such a high ability level.

It is hard to contain one's excitement or overcome one's impatience to see them grow into their full potential.

Samuel Kalu is confirmed Garri Master but he had a very poor success rate this weekend.

Yeah. Stats can be used however you desire. While his overall numbers are high, I think his rate of successful dribbles is quite low

Why turn it upside down just to find something negative about the stat? What is the success rate of those ranked below him? The boy is the best dribbler of the ball in all the top leagues in Europe for God’s sake. Let’s appreciate what we have and encourage better from these boys. Not easy to leave the war zones of Nigeria and become the best in Europe in such a short time.

I see what you mean about finding the negative side. That was not my intention but I thought nfachairman raised a good point... it's also something I've noted in his game.

By the way I don't think a lower success rate is so negative... it means he's confident enough to try again even after failing.

He has 22 successful dribbles out of 47
The next highest person Arsenal's Pepe has 19/28
Betis' Fekir has 18/25 and Di Maria has 18/41
