This KID Amooo

Post by Agbako »



Can he do this in a National Team Colors.? I think we should give him a look. To me better than suppose strikers we are parading right now that cant dribble one player. Moses Simon exception..... I need A player like this in the box to cause havoc...

You still have not learned as this issue pertains to our players. The league does not accurately reflect how good an African player is. The reason is because of economics. These players leave there countries seeking to play wherever they will be legitimately paid for their labor. They do not ordinarily care whether it is in Denmark, Saudi, or Germany. This is especially true for their first port of call. You need to read up about migration of these players to better understand this phenomenon.

Are u looking for dribblers or strikers? I think you should be scouting for rReal Madrid Germany based on your ability to discover talent on You Tube.

I am still shocked to see how he easily goes past players much bigger than him. And he is deceptively quick with the ball at his feet.

Eguavoen did say he was looking at calling either him or Silas Nwankwo as a replacement for Ighalo but CAF didn't allow it.

Got a late, late call up as a late replacement by Pep Eguavillo .. Unfortunately, CAF no gree. As we could only replace players with injuries.

ANC and WCQ have come a bit too early. Maybe next years ANC...

I am not saying the kid is not all that, or cannot be good because he is playing in Sweden.

But we need to chill until he proves himself in a tougher league, that's all.

That guy has a very good acceleration. Dams and his close ball control is awesome. Definitely one to keep an eye on, 'Ghanaian' or not. :D

Some people are so quick to dismiss uncanny talents because those talents have not been tested in the so called big leagues. A first time observer to the current AFCON tournament will be shocked to find out that the acclaimed 3rd best player in the world, Mo Salah has only scored one goal against some teams playing with mostly home-based or local players. Mo Salah plays in the so called BIG league.
We shouldn't be painting all the players with the same brush because they don't play in the big leagues. Players move all the time. The player that moves from league E to league A is the same player, with the same skill sets. The skills remain, the environment changes. So for me I look at the player's skill first before the league he's playing in.
Amoo is a very skillful player. Naturally gifted. If he moves to a bigger league tomorrow, it won't only be because of his skill it will be because his agent has found a better team willing to invest in his service.
A Person convinced against his will is of the same opinion still.

You keep promoting this fallacy, maybe when they first leave the country . Within a year, Terem Moffi, moved from Lithuania to France, Arokodare moved to Germany and France, Dennis from Ukraine to the EPL, Yusuf from Sweden to Belgium, Bonnke from Sweden to France etc. The cream will always rise to the top and the scouting network in Europe is extensive and the good players will get scouted.

Amoo is not going to last in Sweden. One more year tops.

Thats real talent there, i don't care what league that he is in. He will destroy some big name defenders. Reminds me of Ike Uche, but way more lateral movement, more direct.

Seriously that kid is fire.

I am trying to keep myself from saying that NIgeria's version of Messi may soon emerge. Let's see how he develops but certainly one to watch.

Kid is legit.
All sorts of things can go wrong for one so young but as for talent, he’s exceptional.

A lot of similarities between his game and Anayo Iwuala’s❗️

Nothing shocking about it. That was exactly Henry Nwosu’s calling card❗️

He’s not very Henry Nwosu-esque though. Henry flew past your like the wind. Amoo is more like a one-man stampede.

Both amazing to see in full flight.
