Keshi invites Leon Balogun, already in camp!

[Tbite]

I trust you sha, there is no way you will miss Yobo's Testimonial.

[1naija]

Who is the Ghanaman next to him?








But bia, so the guy is a division 2 player? Who is selling us this rubbish?

[Catalyst]

I wished more of you could speak german to understand what he says.
It is an interesting interview revealing that Balogun is an intelligent, very focused and ambitious lad.
His attitude is definetly top-notch.

What did he say?

Interpret.

What I found interesting is that he talked about concious nutrition he practices to be in a good condition.
And he talked about a friend he closely works with in Berlin who is a physical therapist.
Balogun works on strenthening his back as somebody told him that his stomach muscles are 'too strong' for his back.

He also revealed that he is well informed of his opposite number on matchday.
He for example asked his coach wether Bastos (former Schalke) is as strong as Ibrahima Traore which he admited was difficult for him to play against.
Balogun also seems to be self-confident as he says that he has no fear playing the big boys in the Bundesliga - he just consideres it as a job to stop them from feeling too comfortable on the pitch and he does not undermine his own ability facing the big names in the Bundesliga.

(the interview is from last year when Fortuna Düsseldorf was playing in the Bundesliga)

Interesting.

Sounds like leadership material.

If he catches on, we will be blessing for a long long time as he is so young and has not even reached his peak.

I hear he is more of a CD rather than a RB? What is his best position?

Is he a division one or division 2 player?

Currently playing in the 2nd Bundesliga (like Championship in England).

His prefered position is CD but he has played most games for Fortuna as a RB.
As he stated in an interview above his coach may like his accurate crossing and his pace and stamina a modern right-back needs.

[amos09]

Who dey go this game sef? I never hear one person say him dey go Atlanta.

I will be in Atlanta hours before the game

[nemi2002]

Where are the guys that keep disrespecting Kesh.

[Robotnik]

Why is his picture not on the other thread of guys in camp?

Never mind I seen the picture on another site..

[Ugbowo]

[elerineye]

Me sef plan to storm camp with my kits. I might be a Nigerian International after the fact on Wednesday...

As a mascot?

Kai!!! Too early to dey read dis kain tin men...

[JssMan]

If he is Div 2 and a bench warmer, he has no place in our squad, when we are supposed to be close to selecting a team for the World Cup. OMG!

[The Notorious B!GGESTMAN]

But bia, so the guy is a division 2 player? Who is selling us this rubbish?

This is the nonsense we will have to put up with. I can see all of his agents are jubilating- they do not care for their country ,that is for sure. How old is he now? 24?25?26? And he is not even a starter at a 2nd division club! Meanwhile Otigba continues to beg to be given a chance....

[The Notorious B!GGESTMAN]

AIDS is real.

Have you figured out the eligibility rules yet? dumba$$$

and have you figured out how to use a condom yet?????

[imehjunior]

VE please confirm if Tony Harris is his agent and if Keshi has hammered?

[Player]

Some of you all are talking like this guy is the next best thing since slice bread....

[osita]

Am more happy with the invitation of Imoh and Uchebo, i believe these two players will make the world cup squad. Imoh is more like an Uche ike but with better pace and shooting ability.

if only keshi can also bring in Anichebe, who will complement Emenike if there is injury.

I have always said in this forum that national team form is different from club form. you may be surprised that imoh will fit perfectly into SE playing style.

no disrespect to uche but he has team meates in villeral that complement his style (tika taka). Imoh a times works his own goals, and you can see that determination in his playing style.

So Ike Uche has never had National team form?

Ike Uche had a slump period......and during that period, it wasn't like he was on fire for club either. I believe, there were some injury related issues and basically, he was off his game for a while, even after he returned. Now, his form has returned and people are talking about his game, based on the LOWEST point in his career!

I hope people realize, that Rashidi Yekini at his lowest point, was useless! Emmanuel Emenike, at his lowest point was useless!

So what gives? Last I checked, only Emenike has excelled at this eagles playing style...yet people keep talking about playing style. Bright Dike, Ameobi are they all of a sudden prolific? It is early days!

Lets be real!
