For someone who said he knows football to even compare Bassey to Collins is just beyond me……Players marketers is a virus killing Nigerian football and it must be eradicated especially in the national team……Bassey is the best and inform defender in SE now followed by Zaidu then followed by Akpoguma and Aina because they are the only SE defenders playing top level football at the moment…..I just hope this satanic player marketers don’t find their way into the circles of the new SE coach.
Akp,except u just decided to spack such debate, no one is comparing Collins and Bassey.Both of them are Nigerian players, and we r happy for their exploit. So stop chasing clout.
