Excellent player . I rate him higher than Aina in terms of focus and tenacity. It was Ainas lack of focus that cost us a semi final place in the last AFCON against TUNISIA..
Absolute bullshit….are you a woman… nonsense. That was the guy’s debut and he did well. You can just praise him and not attack Aina. I for swear for you seriously… because what the hell. You guys will just come here and post comments like some pregnant woman.
Good to have him make the wing stronger. Those who hitherto play in that in that wing will sit up now knowing a slip up will make them vulnerable to losing out. Good competition….
YOUR AGGRESSIVENESS AND COMMITMENT OF THE FIELD REMINDS ME 1994 SUPER EAGLE SET AND JERO SHAKPOKE AGAINST GERMANY FRIENDLY.
BECAUSE OF YOUR PASSION AND COMMITMENT, YOU WILL NOT REGRET FOR CHOOSING NIGERIA AHEAD OF ENGLAND. YOU WILL WIN ALOT OF LAURENS WITH SUPER EAGLE
WHAT A GOOD PLAYER. INFACT IT HAS BEEN LONG WE EXPERIENCE A STRONG SPRIT COMMITED PLAYER ON THE FIELD OF PLAY. IF NIGERIA HAVE SUCH STRONG & COMMITTED PLAYERS IN EVERY POSITION, SUPER EAGLE WILL WIN NEXT AFCON AND WORLD CUP FOR SURE
Well said Sisterwoman Juliet. Samuel is an excellent player.
Heaven bless Osayi Samuel and all deserving Super Eagles players.
THIS IS THE TYPE OF STRONG FOREIGN BORN PLAYERS SUPER EAGLE NEED. NOT THE TYPE OF WEAK & CHICKEN LEG OF OLD ONE’S.
IF COACH PASEIRO DOESN’T WANT TO FAIL WITH SUPER EAGLE, HE SHOULD FORGET USING PLAYERS BY NAME/EGO. HE SHOULD GO OUT ALL OVER THE UNIVERSE AND SCOUT FOR A PLAYERS THAT ARE READY TO DIE ON PITCH. UNLESS HE WILL MAKE A RECORD OF WORST EVER COACH IN THE HISTORY OF NIGERIA SUPER EAGLE. BECAUSE IT HAS BEEN LONG NIGERIA HAVE EXPERIENCE SUCH SCORELINE AGAINST PORTUGAL.
In fact, I’m seriously happy for this guy. He has really come to finally stopped the invitation of Shehu for good.
But it’s too early to start putting him ahead of Aina. Aina has played over 20 games for super Eagles this guy just played one game but with him, Aina and Ebuehi, we are good.
Over to goalkeeping, central defense and Stable attacking midfielder because with good offensive midfielder, Moffi, Onuachu even Dessers can score goals talk less of Osimhen.
(Eze and Olise on mind)
If no one will tell the truth, you were just crap, Gasping for air every after they have dribbled the life out of you, you are no where near Aina’s quality, you should be playing for the under 20. Not the Super Eagles.
This is hate speech @Edosa or you didn’t watch the match or you watched the back of your television. Am sure you have not entered pitch before or has not kicked a ball if you have done that am not sure you will belittle his effort. The young man had a good game but talking down on him is callous and wicked on your part.
I repeat the guy was a waste of space. if i didn’t watch the match wouldn’t be commenting, just like the rest of his colleagues, he was crap, Obviously i see why he ended up in Turkish league. Invite him next time and you see what he is made of. On the issue of whether i don see field or played on one. Yes i have before you were even conceived
