He's not interested talking nonsense and dancing on social media, he's just focused on banging in goals from all angles.

Is there a different Onuachu or the one we have been seeing all these years? Bros, let’s be serious. Onuachu, Awoniyi, Sadiq are not worthy of any more call ups. They have exhausted all their chances.

Tolu is raw but there is something in how he gets into good positions that sets him apart from the rest. I won’t say he is a guaranteed starter but he deserves to be given more opportunities like the others. I suspect he is here to stay, and not just because of the goal he scored yesterday, though that was sweet.

He missed some easy chances during the Unity Cup. Minus the goal, his hold up play was very poor against Russia.

I played soccer, but not professionally. I didn’t see the game to know that’s he’s minus 1. He would be perfect to come off the bench when SE had strong midfielders. Paul has the same problem, but Paul’s saving grace is his ball handling ability.

I don’t understand the Tolu hate on Cybereagles.

Hate it or love it Tolu is the #2 after Osimhen.

I would start a Tolu ahead of Cyril.

I think he will come good. He has physical presence in the box. Some said he missed easy chances, the thing his got the chances. While that other guys mentioned never got that chance. He kept defenders on their toes like Oshimen. You could see Russians and Jamaicans were scared of him.

What has Tolu done that Onuachu hasn't done better, both in club football and in the national team?
Tolu contributed nothing in all the games he has played except for this free goal the goalkeeper dashed him. If you are relying on him to give you goals, you are wasting your time. He doesn't press, doesn't hold the ball well, and is very slow.

From his three matches played for Nigeria (especially against Ghana) Tolu gets into goal scoring positions.... He needs to convert those chances...

I prefer Tolu over Onuachu
In the last 3 /4 matches Tolu has 1 goals and 1assist .

Onuachu has played over 15 games and has maybe 2goals and no assists

Striker ranking right now

Osimhen, Cyril and then Tolu

The Jury is still out on Tolu

Not yet convinced but he deserves more chances

Certainly above

Iheanacho, Onuachu

I dont think he is above Dessers, and also don't know if he is above Moffi, Sadiq Umar etc.

Under Chelle I suspect the striker roll call in particular order would be:

Osimhen
Tolu (Chelle seems to like him)
Dessers
Sadiq?

Boniface seems to have potentially played himself out of the team at this point, but if he's still in the picture...then he's further down the pecking order. Awoniyi is so injury prone that he might never be in consideration for national team football again, unfortunately. The likes of Iheanacho, Onuachu etc are clearly going to be NFF usual weird picks, cause it's clear Chelle will never rate those them. Moffi won't be in Chelle's radar anytime soon cause of his long layoffs due to injury, he will need a full/good season to be noticed.

I hope we get George Ilenikhena and Emmanuel Emegha.
