Defenders don't hang so nobody cares about them on CE.

Our defenders are not playing poorly at all.

Not a single mention of our midfielders, sha its not surprising...

Our defenders are not doing anything special and many here have been saying it for a while.
Personally, I will give a passmark to Aina and Sanussi, but our central defenders haven't filled me with any degree of excitement from their club performances recently.

Balogun: Supposedly our "best" CD is in and out of a poorly performing Celtic team in the Scottish Premiership.
Ajayi: A regular in rock-bottom WBA's central defence but IMHO is inconsistent, not commanding and often anonymous. To crown it all was red-carded last Saturday for a clumsy handling of the ball as he was about to be beaten.
Ekong: Dropped from Serie A's Udinense down to the English Championship @ Watford, he hasn't necessarily set the place alight or caught any positive headlines. I haven't been watching him tbh, but I haven't been hearing him either.
Omeruo: Same as Ekong down in La Liga 2. Kudos to him for scoring last weekend but he was standing in the right place at the right time in a goalmouth scramble in the 95th minute. Otherwise, Omeruo hasn't caught anyone's attention of recent.

Others:
Ebuehi: On his way back but nowhere near what he used to be - yet. Scored a similar goal to Omeruo's last weekend and that's about it.
Collins: MIA. At best, is 'just OK' at Paderborn in Bundesliga 2 where he has just renewed his contract. Rumours of him being snapped up from his relegation-bound team by a bigger club at the end of last season turned out to be unfounded.
Ozonwafor: Still trying to establish himself as a CD at Galatasaray and is mostly warming the bench.


So, it might sound a bit harsh but my conclusion is that on the whole, the majority of our defenders do not seem to be on an upward trajectory, unlike our strikers. Some are static and others are more like regressing IMHO.

We need top-flight, top-performing defenders to have any chance of impacting the World Cup meaningfully. All this first-round, second-round 'show face' nonsense is no longer good enough.

I think you need to check which club Balogun plays for, I think you will discover it is not Celtic and he only needs seven more points to be a league champion.

This dude will do anything to save his massa.. my goodness, Leon plays for Rangers who are currently 18 points ahead of Celtic and will be winning the SPL.. They are also about to make the last 16 of the Europa league. https://www.transfermarkt.us/leon-balog ... eler/56100


Why do you constantly polish lies to suit your agenda in worshiping **** even the other post on Ajayi, Colins Ekong, etc are lies. Collins has been playing week in week out, they lost to Dortmund by 3 goals to 2 in the league cup etc... just state you only watch the football in england where you reside... you don't have to always change the topic to suit the corruption you , and your massa **** been punishing Nigeria with

Oga, Leon Balogun plays for Rangers and they are topping the League. I think it's not fair that you come here and state something you are not sure about. It's a big shame man.

We all make genuine mistakes.
I always thought he signed for Celtic and the times I've checked for him in their line up, I've not seen him - for obvious reasons.
Is he making the Rangers line up regularly? I don't know but maybe that's cos I've been looking for him in the wrong place.

So aside from the club mix-up, are you saying he is a regular in the Rangers line-up, like Joe Aribo?
Just asking.
By the way, my post wasn't only about Balogun, so keep it in context before you needlessly ascribe ill-intent to a genuine mistake. I'm not sure why you're suddenly going OTT over a minor error on just one player when I spoke about 9 of them...

But this is CE, the home of one-upmanship.

^ dude you were wrong and you still insist on beating your chest about the false info . However you chose to speak and comment about something you have no info or update about. my goodness are you cursed or what? This is very annoying .

You've even indicated you misspoke, but you go on to ask if he is a club regular. You still do not know his numbers this season and you are still boasting in this thread . Everything you wrote about the defenders were all lies . You are a horrible individual

My groupie!
I've given you another reason to add to your 89,080 posts!
How many of them are dedicated to damunk?
This obsession you have needs further examination.

Oya, post number 89,081 loading....

focus, and keep counting. You were so wrong and it shows you are clueless to the status of SE players . Instead of correcting your error, you still want to prove a point. 3 folks here called you out , but you still play ignorance

Guys, Haba! Give uncle Damunkey a break. Since when did we start watching a game before analyzing it on CE talkless knowing which club our players play in?

Damunkey, Damunkey, please ignore them. Cetics or Rangers, same difference, abi?

Pretty much.
1st and 2nd in an eternal two-horse Glasgow race for the Scottish Premiership title with no other team winning the top division in over 35 years. That must be a world record.

So yeah, I wouldn't get too excited about either team, or the difference - that's assuming you're referring to Celtic, and not some American wannabe 'soccer' team self-identifying as 'Celtics'.

All these years, Pinnick and Rohr have not produced a ´Top flight, top-performing defender´. What happened to the London recruitment?

What happened to your Maldinis, Cafus, Desaillys, Puyols and Cannavaros hiding under Eko bridge?
Still hiding?

Couldn´t find any in London.

Try the conference... you might be lucky!

No need nah.
We will follow your advice and go under the bridge. It's cheaper.
If Eko bridge no work, we go try Onitsha bridge.

Nigeria needs your help. Tell us when you are next in Lagos so you can take us there.
We can fly to Asaba and hop over the river to Onitsha if Lagos no work.

Maybe you should try London or Westminster bridge or Dartford crossing?

Maybe you can help upgrade the database
