    And he’s done it.  What a bullish goal it was too.  The boy is in the form of his life along with my guy Kvara.  Can we just petition FiFA to make that man Nigerian? JK but its a pity he represents a country that won’t do anything on the international stage

      If he wasn’t capped by Georgia already. Boy, we could use a guy like that in the team! What he does for Napoli is what I thought Ejuke would do for Naija, but so far that hasn’t happened yet.

        Ejuke? That selfish player?

      • Lord AMO 1 year ago

        Interesting that you mentioned Ejuke as a comparison.  I believe it is apt.  The difference is Kvara dribbles with a purpose and releases the ball to teammates on time or cuts in to shoot.  Almost always some sort of end product with him.  Ejuke on the other hand just runs himself into cul de sacs and often loses the ball while ignoring teammates that are in better positions.

        I’m truly hoping that his time in the bundesliga will help refine his game and that he’ll start delivering because the talent is undeniably there. 

  • Napoli will surely win serie A tittle in this 2022/2023.
