Super Eagles Squad At Ghana 2008: What To Expect?

Let's just hope he will do it

The sad aspect is that oruma and obodo are out,what will our midfield be like? Is it mikel to play the role of atackin midfielder currently playin defensive midfield for chelsea or olofinjana,etuhu,ayila,kiata, who will it be

Have u guys seen d list posted by berti vogts for d camping in malaga? i think eagles will surprise in nations cup

Four West African teams rumped in one group, it can't get tighter than this. It is a well known fact that W.African's style of play is to dominate the mid-field and ocassionally place some dashing runs along the flanks.

Looking at the squad as released by Vogts, I can't find our attacking mid-field players that can be compared to what Cote'ivore and Mali posses not forgetting Benin.

Looking at the wings, I can't find any natural winger in the mould of Finidi or Amuneke that will always send shivers down the spine of opponents even before the match starts.

The Defence is also suspect. With Yobo marshling the defence, the likes of Shittu, Taiwo, Afolabi are most often not consistent.  Onyekachi Apam and Nwaneri still play with the mentality of Rangers/Enyimba. Ifeanyi Emeghara, Efe Ambrose  are outsiders.

It is only in the attack that we have some measure of formidable players. But what really can players like Martins, Nsofor and Uche do if they are not being fed from the middle or the defence.

I would have loved to see players like Lukman Haruna and Rabiu Ibrahim dictating the pace in the mid-field as they did in Korea, but do they have the experience and clout to do that? No. Vogts also doen't intend using them for the competition.

Give or take, if we manage to come 2nd in our group, we will take it from there. With some bit of luck anything is possible _{including winning while fumbling and wobbling}

Does anyone know why Victor Anichebe was excluded from the Super Eagles squad for AFCON?

Its really disgusting to see players like Shittu and Dickson Etuhu in Nigeria team just like we had players in division 90 like Sodje and Abbey george in our team at a point in time why wont we be crappy?

I don't mean to be rude but i can't count how many times the Super Eagles have failed Nigerians in the past. Be that as it may, i don't expect anything good or bad but whatever comes out of the games, i'll take it in good fate.

if we qualify from our group it would be a miracle.

Don't forget The two midfield generals for Mali - Mahmadou Diarra and Keita. I don't think Nigeria has any midfield players as good as those 2.

Sissoko is Malian too who is better than all those Nigerian players in that position. IMO

lol dream on

my brother, no be only you dey wonder. Etuhu is so poor in a crap Sunderland team, gone are the days our players commanded the best teams in Europe.
Cote Divoire have 4 players in the 2 top teams in England - Arsenal and Chelsea, 1 key player in Barca.
Even small Mali has a top player each in Sevilla, Lyon and Real Madrid . . .

Na Sunderland, Everton and Watford we dey go pick players. 

Even ordinary Portsmouth, the likes of Bouba Diop and Sulley Muntari are making our players look like amateurs.

 ever since nigerian players adopted the fashion way of tying heirs like a newly iniciated gay, things has never work out in tuornanment they engaged on.

3rd place as usual
