Nigeria Vs Cape Verde: My Player Rating by Jarus(m): 10:06am On Jan 10, 2013 |
1, Ejide: Made a couple of good saves, even though it was more of bad finishing from the Cape Verdean strikers. Later had muscle pull. 6 2, Yobo: Brought experience to bear on a couple of occasions, also stopped ball a couple of times, but he should have done better. Having played at big clubs and world stage, can't believe he was part of defence that was overrun several times by the CV forwards 5 3, Oshaniwa: Below average. Not spectacular in the back. Routed by CV attackers.4 4, Echiejile: I still don't know why Keshi picked this guy ahead of Taiye Taiwo. Even if TT is useless in defending, he adds bite to attack. Echiejile is both useless in defending and making attacking runs to assist the left winger. Yesterday was no different. Gave the ball away many times. Coudlnt stop the CV guys meandering through our defence. Poor passes and finishing too 2 5, Onazi : Bad game for Eagles yesternight. Not the Onazi we knew. Made our midfield so porous while the CV had a field day, especially in first half. Gave ball away so unprofessionally. Did little in second half 3 6, Mikel : The only average performer in Eagles midfield before Igiebor came on board. Didn't do much in first half as CV overran our midfield but did a yeoman job in second half, having goal attempt as well as distributing passes although the guys at the other couldn't catch up with the passes for most time 6.5 7, Ogude : Lost in a midfield overrun by the CV 3 8, Musa : a couple of moves on the flanks but poor final ball 5 9, Moses : below average capped with unnecessary kick of opponent when he became frustrated 4 10, Emenike : average performance, especially on the wings, tried to push in several times, not selfish though 5 11, Oboabona : our best defender of the night, tried in stopping the onslaught of the CV attackers, but water pass garri 6 SUBS 1, Igiebor : easily the man of the match, came in and stabilized the midfield, making second half a lot better 7 2, Ideye : Introduced in second half but couldn't do anything spectacular 4 3, IK Uche : made a couple of efforts when he came in, but wasn't able to penetrate 5 4, Enyeama : Not tested like Ejide but still inspired confidence 5 5, Omeruo : good game for him, even as a defender, pushed forward and had a goal attempt. Also charged forward 6 MAN OF THE MATCH: Igiebor FLOP OF THE MATCH: Ogude 3 Likes |

Even though i didn't watch the game yesterday but truth be be told, we don't have a team that can overun an average team. We have bunch of average players who have nothing spectacular. Even our best players are not in the best of clubs. We have to accept that our footbal has taken a dive down. 1 Like |

Kenneth Omeruo was also one of the subs. He started the 2nd half @ right-back in place of Efe Ambrose and he did pretty well IMO. He's missing from your player rating? |
Re: Nigeria Vs Cape Verde: My Player Rating by akintun: 11:21am On Jan 10, 2013 |
I saw d first half, and only part of d second half . I believe d guys can improve in SA. The truth is dat Martis, Osaze, and TT deserve to be in dat team. This is d Nations cup, and we all know dat Nigeria usually perform well, infact since 1976 we have been d most consistent team at d Nation cup, so we expect nothing less than a semi-final place with dis set of average and below average players. 1 Like |

Hmmmmm, na God go help 9ja in SA. Bt sincerely speaking, we need Osaze, Martins and Taiye Taiwo in dat team. CIAO |
Re: Nigeria Vs Cape Verde: My Player Rating by Nobody: 11:32am On Jan 10, 2013 |
Dia is stil room 4 improvement, but Efe Ambrose is rily a disaster in dat right full back. 4 God sake why wil Keshi nt pick guys like Okonkwo or Mohamed Yusuf? I bet u, most sectators dat will watch Zambia/Nigeria match may end up with hrt atacks <lol> But luck always see us tru, we ar waitng 4 d day. |

For me, Mikel Obis' performance was the most dismal of the night. Couldn't hold the midfield and so couldn't inspire confidence in our players. Forget the team captain, No 10 is the soul of every team. 1 Like |

I totally disagree with ur ratings for Emenike,d guy z as useless as the potty in my house.I'll prefer a more clinical dike bright to him.and also u 4got to rate d poorest player in a green white green jersey yesterday, efe ambrose,I'll rate him -2.I'll prefer we take those boys dat played against catalonia to Afcon,and mayb jez add Mikel obi and nosa igbiebor to d midfield to make it stronger and maybe a joseph yobo in defence (experience wise), and victor moses in d wings(that's if he comes back to his right senses)to spice it up. I bet yhu nigeria will b d team to beat.those boyss against catalonia are more hungry 4 glory dan dis ones ydy. 3 Likes |

Nice rating.... That match was very uninspiring and discouraging!! Its obvious that we missed an Osaze in team. Echiejile was terrible.. I doubt Taye Taiwo could have been worse than that. Ejide was good, but looked unfit. Moses showed gross unprofessionalism in that match.. Mikels passes were not connecting.. The team showed no cohesion whatsoever. We missed; Osaze Odewingie Joel Obi Martins Obafemi The outlook for the Nations cup is not too bright... 3 Likes |
Re: Nigeria Vs Cape Verde: My Player Rating by honeric01(m): 11:52am On Jan 10, 2013 |
Yet some people were comparing Rabiu Ibrahim to Nosa Igiebor. The latter is far far far more exposed/better than the former. |
Re: Nigeria Vs Cape Verde: My Player Rating by Maxymilliano(m): 11:56am On Jan 10, 2013 |
Going by yesterday's game, the Nations Cup is as good as gone. The Eagles performance was below average and lacking in quality. Emenike will be a disaster at the tournament and I don't see the team shrugging of their usual lethargic. Perfomance |
Re: Nigeria Vs Cape Verde: My Player Rating by lavivifubs: 12:01pm On Jan 10, 2013 |
The CVs were apparently better than the Eagles. However Keshi should learn from the game and make corrections before the commencement of the AFCON. The Eagles have to make their presence felt in SA. |

semid4lyfe: Heheh my brother, they're more than just 2 o, some people with sentiments. Rabiu should concentrate on how to get a regular playing time, if i were him, i would go to a small club where i can play regular football. if you can't play regularly, you won't develop. infact he should go to Segunda division in spain, like Villareal B, Barcelona B or Elche, then build his career from there. |
Re: Nigeria Vs Cape Verde: My Player Rating by Arsenate(m): 12:07pm On Jan 10, 2013 |
Musa deserves at least a 6. His pace was causing problems for the Cape Verdeans all night. |
Re: Nigeria Vs Cape Verde: My Player Rating by Jarus(m): 12:12pm On Jan 10, 2013 |
honeric01:I tire o. Even after watching him disappoiting in about 5 matches he has featured for Nigeria NT, people still use his performance at under-17 some 5 years ago to judge him today. |
Re: Nigeria Vs Cape Verde: My Player Rating by semid4lyfe(m): 12:17pm On Jan 10, 2013 |
honeric01: He's already moved from Celtic and signed for another Scottish Premier league side, Kilmarnock FC and he's been promised regular playing time there. I also Away from Rabiu, I really wish Bright Dike had made the final 23-man list. HE DESERVED TO BE ON THE LIST. |
Re: Nigeria Vs Cape Verde: My Player Rating by honeric01(m): 12:17pm On Jan 10, 2013 |
Jarus: It's very easy to know people who do not have any idea on what they're talking about from their comments, that's why i don't bother replying their post. I also think we need to do something about our LB and RB, I believe Kenneth can really play that role (RB), as for LB, having just Taiwo as a replacement means we're in deep shit. Taiwo of today is no longer the Taiwo of 2005, hence the reason clubs are passing him around. Does it mean that we don't have any good HB LB in our league? Echiejile is not that bad but very inconsistent. |
Re: Nigeria Vs Cape Verde: My Player Rating by bong4(m): 12:17pm On Jan 10, 2013 |
As much as i was not satisfied with the playerspeformance yesterday (which i feel they did on purpose), we should avoid calling them useless and other names cos they are humans and playing football is not as easy as running commentaries with our mouth. The coach knows why he chose them. Just don't watch Nigeria matches with all your heart and of course expect little or nothing. |
Re: Nigeria Vs Cape Verde: My Player Rating by honeric01(m): 12:19pm On Jan 10, 2013 |
semid4lyfe: Yes i know he's with Kilmarnock, but with the kind of player he is, he would have developed well in Spain and not in a place like Scotland. Yes, Dike is more precise than Emenike, i just don't know why Keshi went for the latter and not the former. |
Re: Nigeria Vs Cape Verde: My Player Rating by Jarus(m): 12:23pm On Jan 10, 2013 |
Still on Dike, I honestly don't know what Ejike is doing on that list. Na by force to include a home based if we don't have quality ones. Dike is better than Ejike and Keshi included Ejike ahead of Dike only to be seen as developing home-based. To me, Gabriel Reuben, Agbim and Oboabona are the only homebased that have business in that team. |
