I'm gonna guess most the players on that list will tell you their stock would have been higher if they were natives.

Re: Kenneth Omeruo linked to Hull City (Loan)

First Omeruo is not good enough for Chelsea. He can't defend cornerkicks and can't score any. So he is really smart for extending with Chelsea. He goes on loan to learn the trade. Hull city is good for him. He will be facing top strikers from Liverpool, Man City, Man U, Southampton, Tottenham, Ever...

Re: Zonal Marking analysis - Nigeria vs France

I don't think their is any team in the world that will not suffer from the loss of their best player in-game against a more talented team. If Messi goes down Argentina has absolutely zero chance of winning this world cup. Same goes for Neymar and Brazil. Likewise for Robben and Benzema. Pre-tourney ...

Re: [WC2014] France 2-0 Nigeria: FT (Pogba, Yobo(OG))

How many top 10 ten talents does Costa Rica have? How many Costa Rican players would start for Italy, England, and the other teams theybeat? You do not need a team full of top 10 talents. You don't but that means you need to get lucky. Costa Rica got Greece, we got France. We got unlucky somewhat w...

Re: URGENT SE REBUILD

1. What rebuilding do you want to do with a team with a good base and a future? 2. We need to realize that we are having some set of players that will dominate the African scene for the next 5years in Onazi, Omeruo, Oboabona, Juwon, Mikel, Enyeama, Elderson, Emenike, 3. Like Akamoke said, we only n...

Re: [WC2014] France 2-0 Nigeria: FT (Pogba, Yobo(OG))

You are right, there are very fundamental issues involved. But even on the ephemeral level of player selection, there were much better players in the local league than Oshaniwa. And I would have the same expectations from an Isaac Success or Musa Mohammed as any player in the current SE. Afterall, ...

TXJ, lets discuss these options and what expectations you would have had with em. Who would you have taken ahead of oshaniwa that's obviously superior to him ?

Re: Waasland Beveren confirmed that Harris will receive Fifa

To understand this, u would have to ask yourself, why would a club accede to such a clause? If a club had expectation of its player making the WC squad, it would be foolish to give up the money; no? But if on the other hand, the agent had full knowledge of his inclusion in the squad, irrespective o...

Re: NAIJA GOLAZO CONTEST OF THE WEEK!!!! Ajagun VS Mba VS O

MBA's goal was the most difficult as it was off the bounce with a defender closing him down as it curls around the keeper. Osaze's goal magnificent but most strikers who are worth their salt will score that chance base on time, angle and clear chance . Ajagun's goal looks lucky as it could have eas...

Re: NAIJA GOLAZO CONTEST OF THE WEEK!!!! Ajagun VS Mba VS O

No SE player has better technique than Mba. Give him a room to shoot and you'd find yourself to blame. Mba's goal is the most difficult one because of the swerve he put on that ball. Goal of the week for me. Actually I think Mba's was the easiest. Ball bounced to him , he controlled it and took a s...

Re: NAIJA GOLAZO CONTEST OF THE WEEK!!!! Ajagun VS Mba VS O

Ajagun's goal was a good volley. MBA hit his with very good technique too.
Osaze's goal had the highest difficulty. He ran the length of the pitch on the break and still had the presence of mind to score from that angle with a perfectly hit ball on a moving ball. Most strikers don't score that goal.
