Raphinha plays Baseball?? No higher performing winger than that Brazillian this season, truth be told. Except Salah.

Salah and Raphinha lead the way in 24/25.

I think the 'the ranking' was supposed to be 'my ranking'

Lamine Yamal sits higher on my list than Raphinha... No be by goals and assists alone, but I forgot, he should definitely be on the list.

1. Yamal
2. Salah
3. Raphinha
4. Saka
5. Lookman

Looks better now... Some names skipped my head then.

Yamal is a chance creator, a dribbler, a scorer and can drop back to defend too.

He's one of the fewest wingers that can take-on players while still creating big chances, he always know what to do with the ball when it's with him, and with his age, he's crazy bruh. That boy is like the most technical winger in the world, no cap.

I am normally the first person to judge a player holitstically and not limit things to G/A numbers only. This is why I will also have Yamal above anyone this season.

But if any of our wingers were dropping Raphinha numbers in a barca shirt, I know what the argument will look like.

Is it true Newcastle are looking at bringing Boniface? Does it mean Isiaka is leaving?

Tbh, he's played as a CF most of the season.

Triple OG speaking. My first under 20 World Cup was Nigeria 1999 but I was a kid then . My favorite under 20 squad I witnessed live is 2005 set and the most disappointing is 2009/2013/ 2015 set . FIFA under 20 World Cup remains my 2nd favorite competition after the senior World Cup

Guy, I hope this time around, we will exorcise the ghost of Chile 87. That 2005 set was dope too, with Mikel Obi,etc.. Siasia remains Nigeria s best youth coach for now. He knows how to pick and mould players into a team. Cheers

Well my opinion...

I don't think Boniface fits Newcastle football
Omo those men too rugged
Their football is too physical

Boniface is not that physical to play their game

My opinion....

Yamal doesn’t compete for air balls ⚽️ even the ones he can win easily not to mention defend

Not true sir. His friend, Chinese Ogbuke Obasi also did same. Believe it or not, Victor Osimhen and Samuel Chukwueze also did. Same with Taiwo Awoniyi and our beloved Kelechi Nwakali.
