I think we should have an award entitled Nigerian EPL player of the month.
For the month of November, my nominees for this “deo’s” prestigious Nigeria EPL player of the month would be:
– Ndidi
– Iheanacho
– Iwobi.
For me, it has to be Ndidi. The Super Eagles masterclass midfielder has been ever solid in the heart of Leicester’s midfield that his reputation now precedes him.
Timely tackles, neat interceptions and composed play are now complemented with offensive aspects to his game which have led to him having inputs in goal scoring initiatives.
Ndidi wins it hands down for me.
Iwobi comes second because, even though Everton are struggling at the moment, the ex-arsenal man has been lively with a number of goal assists and spirited displays.
Then,the return of Iheanacho sees him come third after recording a delightful goal and an even more delicious assist (admittedly that game was played on 1 December but I will still sneak it in!).
