This will be one of the interesting duels in the match . Who comes out victorious in the battle.

the most important player in the French Midfield is Blaise Matuidi!

Yohan Cabaye comes a close second. Dont be suprised if Pogba starts from the Bench because Sissoko gives them a little bit more mobility than Pogba

in any case I think we can match the French Midfield but Mikel and Onazi need to raise their game. Onazi has been a little too rough lately and giving away freekicks in dangerous spots on the pitch.

But I believe that if Oboabona and Omeruo starts our midfield will play better. Never under-estimate the importance of the ability for Omeruo/Oboabona to knock the ball about from the back and into the midfield or sometimes run with the ball into the midfield.

Blaise maitiuidi is in a league of his own,so Paul pogba might seize the holding midfield role

We shouldn't engage the French in midfield battle; we should make good use of the wings and destroy them with pace which we've got a lot. Musa, Osaze, Emineke etc all very pacy. Simple instruction to Mikel: don't delay the passes.

you sabi everything

someone should tell Mikel he should stop trying to be Okocha or Zidane because her will never be, he should release the ball quicker

That mikel is my worst nigerian player ever...i wonder how he got into that team...

As simple as that

Matuidi is all brawn and no brain, Won't be so difficult to mark down, The real problem is Valbuena, he is their Messi and we have to be watchful of him

This Pogba is overated.

pogba or pagbo all i care is nigeria wil win.mikel is like a snail to me he better stay on the bench.onazi should use his shorts rightly.musa sometime behave like aboki but he impressed me against agentina.infact it was messi vs musa. What about moses? He should be at d first half and make use of the winger.osaze should do his usual 1/2 passes with emenike.musa should try and undestand him.our defence should be communicating very well.ambrose should stay tight in his position in other not to make enyeama look like olodo.finally,somebody should tell MIKEL to raise his game like guiness and d boys will come on boys like tomtom.

Later things

So Pogba na French name?? It's sounds like one African tribal name oh .... Like the cousin of Drogba

Paul pogba is the best u 21 central midfielder in the world. He reminds me of Patrick Viera . Mikel must bring his A-game on Monday

omoteamac: That mikel is my worst nigerian player ever...i wonder how he got into that team...

As simple as that

My guy stop hating
You are there asking how he got into the team
While he is there Making millions of dollars and
Pounds

My fear in that game is Mikel... He delays passes and sometimes get dispossessed. That taken care of, Nigeria stands a great chance to pull through!

O.K his name is Paul If not for DATA LOSS this wouldn't have made frontpage... All the likes i lost, i must gain back this night.. Like my post if u agree..

You shouldn't be talking 'bout Pogba.. The lad's got potential obviously. But he's bin off and on in this WC ..
The main man who is DD's trump card in midfield is Blaise Matuidi.. This guy is a BEAST..
He breaks up play very efficiently for d side and transitions with pace and purpose from defensive to offensive...
He is the one who does all the ''dirty job'' allowing the more creative players ahead of him to strutt their stuff(the likes of Valbuena, Cabaye, Benzema et. al).. He is everything u want a Mikel Obi 2 be..
But un4tunately i fear our midfield is going to get blown away, with d way Mikel Obi plays... He's got to be the most casual footballer around.. Mikel needs to take a cue from d young Onazi, and try to stamp his authority around.. If Mikel and Onazi can't stop Matuidi in Midfield come Monday, then we'd be in for a torrid 90 minutes.. Becos the wave of French attack will be merciless. #GoSuperEagles... Always with You..

Space booked

If PDP could take over ekiti witout any stress....our mikel and onazi will take over pogba and france midfield witout any stress...go eagles....we dey una back....no more #bringbackourgirls....its now #BringBackOurCup....

We should be more concerned with matuidi and cabaye. Pogba might not even start

ℓ don't know all tђε̲̣̣̣̥ analysis but one thing ℓ know is SE will send France home.

Mikel na slow poison ...he's like a snail in a race with zebras..only hard work and team work can pull naija through.. in terms of stats them don beat us

Mikel won't move and will make Pogba not to
