Joezinho:


onyeka is a box to box midfielder (except you haven't been watching brentford's game all season).. Most times he drops back to help initiate buildup and make an impact in the final third but that doesn't make him a pure DM..

andrewbaba44:


It’s the coach decision for him to be in the team and not me ,even onyekuru with a very poor season made it to the afcon so nothing new .

If you have not seen any hype then you aren’t always on this thread .

Happy Sunday

markfem2:
About the match slatted for Wednesday, coach Eguavoen should start with a lineup dominated by the other players who are yet to feature. I expect to see the likes of Onyekuru, Olayinka, Onyeka, Ebuehi even Uzoho. I am of the firm belief that every player should be given the opportunity to show what he can offer.

andrewbaba44:


You guys should rest abeg ,both the Nwakali slanders and hypers

He didn’t have the best game and also he didn’t have a bad game ,no need for you to start this nonsense hype setting him up for drags ,you don even Dey mention kome moniker ,I laugh Swahili

Nwakali hype men and slanders make una rest .

Hanibal:

Okay agreed... Box to box ba? Good
Can Nwakali play box to box? No!
Do you need a box to box midfielder when you want to bring calmness and recycle the ball in midfield? No!
You see why one cannot compete with the other? A tank is not in competition with a Ferrari ( Aba made) they do different jobs.
It's that simple

TheGoodJoe:


Can you tell me a person that said Nwakali had the best game?

The point is simple. He did the job the coach sent him to do.

How that equates to hype baffles me.

Joezinho:


And how did Nwakali bring calmness to the midfield?

By making back passes thereby putting his team under immense pressure? He kept passing it back, he tried to dribble and lost it.... Even ndidi grew tired of the back passes...

The midfield got weaker with Nwakali's introduction. The attacking drive from the midfield reduced..

andrewbaba44:


I didn’t mention any one said Nwakali got the best game

Oga blue font I was passing my judgment by saying he didn’t have the best game and wasn’t bad either

andrewbaba44:


Nigeria needs 3 point against Guinea-Bissau,we must not change much from the first team ,5 or 6 players from the first team needs to start our next game

This will be my team against guinea Bissau

4-2-3-1

Uzoho

Ebuehi Ajayi Omeruo Zaidu

Ndidi onyeka

Iwobi Nwakali Ejuke

Iheanacho

Any of the new starters wey no impress ,Na to commot am immediately put Better person ,if ejuke like make him go Dey dribble like Mumu ,I think eguavoen have sent him a warning by not playing him yesterday despite having a good game against Egypt

TheGoodJoe:


Do you think forward passes and losing it repeatedly did not put the team under pressure?

markfem2:

As for the CB's the Omeruo-Ekong partnership is a match made in heaven, why change the winning formula. Ajayi can come in as a sub.
I agree with the rest except for Ejuke who should come in as a sub. I wish to see Onyekuru and Olayinka in action. We are already on top of our group. The worst that will happen on Wednesday is a draw which is not likely to happen.

Papi85:
the best I have seen for a long time now in the team

Onerous exhumes so much confidence when on the ball and plays truly as a veteran

Joezinho:


Of course it does. But backward passes are worse.

Samueltemi337:
Onyekuru replace iwobi


iwobi replace Nwakali


Nwakali comes in as a sub Olayinka too

mank1234:
That Guinea Bissau goal that was disallowed would not have been disallowed if it was scored by a big and favoured team. If Egypt was down and scored in similar fashion, VAR and ref won't take the same decision.

VAR is for the favoured teams.

Stormtrooper11:


From what I saw against Sudan, Sierra Leone can beat Nigeria on penalties if we don't compose our attack, dictate play in the middle, reduce unnecessary long balls and establish a proper defense-Goalkeeper coordination/Communication

Joezinho:


onyeka is a box to box midfielder (except you haven't been watching brentford's game all season).. Most times he drops back to help initiate buildup and make an impact in the final third but that doesn't make him a pure DM..

TheSuperNerd:


False info.

24 accurate passes in 25 mins.

16 of them into/in opposition half.

Only 8 of them in defensive half.

How was he backwards all through?

Smh... just talking nonsense.

Guinea Bissau was a pure goal Walai

Egypt didn’t deserve to win that game

Danielnino00:


If you ask me, I think they are trying to keep Egypt in the competition because of Salah...

TheSuperNerd:
You didn't see any long balls even after watching the replay? My goodness.

So Nwakali long ball to Zaidu is a joke to you? Na wa.

Sometimes it doesn't matter how many times we watch a game shaa.
