Iwobi better run away from the perennial failures, he has a bright future, if he wants to win UCL, He should leave Arsenal.

As for Iheancho, we know say you like Arab money but at least you are delivering the goods at City.

And did the man say they watch Mikel live? Because for the past few games I can't even find him on the bench

Iwobi should leave the team that gave him chance since he was 8. The one team that believes in him even when teams like Chelsea are loaning out 38 of their young players.

Your thought process is that of a plastic and Iwobi is an extremely intelligent young man to know what's best for him. He's not likely to follow your not so intelligent advice. Sorry.

Zambia skipper Rainford Kalaba has admitted some of the players were afraid of Nigeria stars who play in the Premier League and this caused their 2-1 loss to the Super Eagles in their World Cup qualifier on Sunday.

Zambia lost for the first time in Ndola with Premier League stars Alex Iwobi and Kelechi Iheanacho scoring for Nigeria in the first half.

The other Premier League stars in the squad were Chelsea midfielder Mikel Obi and Leicester City’s Ahmed Musa.

Kalaba said, “Playing against experienced players based in Europe, some of the guys were scared of playing against them because they always watch them every weekend in the Premier League and when they see them live, it is often difficult for them to concentrate on the game.

“In the first half some of the guys were a bit scared, but in the second half we all saw how things went and we controlled the game.

“There are even more stars in Algeria and Cameroon, so this must be a big lesson for us.”

He added, “We respect Nigeria because they have some good players.

“They have some experienced players in the midfield and they were well organised.”

The exciting forward said the pressure would now be on Chipolopolo to get their qualifying campaign back on track.

“Losing our first game has brought more pressure on us, but we hope to improve,” he admitted.

“We are all very disappointed we lost at home because it was important to start (this competition) well.

“We still have time to work together with the coach so that we could rectify the mistake we have made.”

They have been watching him live for d past 10years...his absence in the last 5games or so doesn't stop him from being feared.

smh just smh. We wonder how people could be so intellectually drained, you are a perfect example. A player representing his NATIONAL team has absolutely no reason to be 'over excited or scared' to face another player whatsoever, dumbo it's a NATIONAL team and you should be ever ready to face another national that may be the number one in the world. I used Asia as an instance because they are the continent that are not way too exposed above Africa and they don't get 'over excited' facing another country because they are ever ready to meet countries better than them but are equal to them in the field of play

Only Africa will give 'over excited' as an excuse when you are professional representing your national team. For you to even wear the colour of your country you should be exposed enough and ready your mindset to face Messi one day. This isn't a club where you my be in division 5 where you can only play against your fellow mediocre clubs until a miracle happens and your club gets promoted or a better club buys you.

I just smh at your level mhen
