UEFA CL - Olimpiacos(2) VS Manchester UTD(0) Olaitan Starts

[metalalloy]

I dunno what some of guys are expecting from Olaitan, but i think he played OK. Would've loved a goal from him but he did good. He definitely needs to build upper body strength if he's going to play as a striker!

the only criticism i have was that he went down a bit to easily. Ok game for him but massive game for his team.

But he is not a striker, he is an attacking midfielder by nature.

But as a striker (which is where we see him play) he is very average so would be hard to see Keshi calling him...plus he doesnt show much AM skills playing upfront either...

Oh dear, Roy Keane with a haymaker to the EPL vs the world debate.

[Sunset]

Very decent performance from Olaitan. Showed some very good touches and dribbles.

Still has some room for improvement.

[Skylolo]

Nice one Joel Campbell...

I like Olaitan's game as well upfront on his own against 2 defenders, used the ball well.

FT

Pathetic Man Utd.

As for Olaitan, wont just dismiss or approve of him just like that but then he's worth watching in the 2nd leg.

I actually think the guy might be better in GWG than he is Olympiakos. He played with the handbrakes on tonight. I see some Onazi in him.

What he didn't say, the absence of which undermines that he did, was a cold Wednesday night at the Britannia.

but let's be honest. he is not ready for WC football. he will be better next season for the vital experience he gained today though.

Based on one game?

[anointed]

in my opinion Olaitan needs to be a little more imposing and make better decisions...he's decent but hasn't asserted himself enough in this match to justify the hype...maybe next time..but 22 goals in one season is a fantastic return for a striker..

When was that? I thought he has scored 11 goals in 22 appearances for Olympiakos.

Thank you Paj. maybe my reaction is more of annoyance from the overhyping from peeps like anointed. A useless man it's team at that. He should have hassled rio and vidic hard.

You still haven't shown where I said he should be on our WC squad and here you go on another lying ego trip that I I hyped him. Again, I ask you to show where except of course you are just a long scum.

You even sound so clueless that all you can do is to thank Paj.

Because Paj echoed my point.. Buy I won't insult or get into that pit latrine with you

3rd lie. Substantiate how Paj echoed your point. Paj said he was decent and needs to assert himself in the match.

As for here's what you said:

It's because he makes lazy and wrong runs.. He is standing still waiting for the ball played to his feet most times that's why.

And

He has a long way to go. In70mins I haven't see anything to wow me. Sorry your boy ain't it..

Where is the echo?

Lie No 1 - that I said he should be in our WC squad - WHERE DID I SAY SO? I will leave CE for 2 weeks of you can show me where I said so

Lie No 2 - that I overhyped Olaitan - SHOW ONE POST WHERE I OVERHYPED HIM

Lie No 3 - that Paj echoed our point? How does Paj's use of decent but needs to assert himself in tis match equate to he's lazy and makes the wrong runs and that he ain't it?

Who needs a latrine when the stench of your lies has risen to the heavens?

[mcal]

Honestly what is David Moyes doing with these players on the training ground?
Too many average players on this team, only God knows how we manage to win the EPL last year

Fergie won't he league not this players.

What kind of rubbish is that abeg park well with that bad belle mess.
Nah Fergie gave Man City, Arsenal and chelsea lower points
The rubbish we hear on CE self

...coaches do make a huge difference.
The guy they have there now is headless.
Gone are the days name win matches or send shivers down opponents spines.
After '94 ANC the name Nigeria strike fear, then come USA '94, then Atlanta '96. As for this United team they would be lucky to make Europa next year.
See how Everton new coach is guiding that team.

@BeniTx, bia, bia osiso...4-2-3-1, Man United, the perfect misfit.

Listen, I am not trying to be harsh on the lad. He did not play badly, he was okay. And yes there is still the second leg to come- but this is the WC, and he has yet to be capped at International level. We shouldn't take too many newbies, and I believe the only newbie striker that should be taken is Imoh Ezekiel.

And no, he should even be considered for the AM role.

[The Notorious B!GGESTMAN]

Oh dear, Roy Keane with a haymaker to the EPL vs the world debate.

and he's just delivered an upper cut to Michael Carrick. Keane always makes for great TV!

If he is not ready, who is? How many of our current super eagles players are in Champions league football. Any Nigerian player playing at this level of champions league and against a team like Man U must be given a chance to fight for a shirt otherwise it becomes a travesty of justice considering that our current Eagles team has lower ranked players. Anybody saying that Olaitan is not ready must be mischievous.

So you confirm he shouldn't go to the WC based on one game. Noted.

Yeah he played OK, and got an assist and did well for someone no playing in his best position. It's not a battle with your boy Ezekiel. Chill.

"We have been brainwashed by the Premier League that it's the best in the world. Nonsense. It's the best brand"

Abeg how do i add a signature oh!!!

[The YeyeMan]

The problem for those who have drawn conclusions based on one game is that if he plays a blinder at Old Trafford then they'll either swing to the other side and say "He's good enough for the WC" or obstinately stick to their original position. Best to survey how things look come end of April.

Nice one Joel Campbell...

l.

And no, he should even be considered for the AM role.

Who should be considered ?

How do you know its not his best position though? He trains with his team daily and thats where they feel he is best, what makes you think they are wrong?
