What was the duty of Iheanacho in that game?

Perhaps, if you knew his duty precisely you would have known why he ought to have been removed ASAP.

First, Eguavoen is part of the Technical Committee, not the technical crew. There are two different things.

Secondly, when you talk team work, formation, etc. You are talking of preference. However, Coach Eguavoen has a different perspective of the game. It is a pure offensive one but we used it to full effect.

That is down to him and his tactical acumen.

He also brought a clear improvement of players. Eguavoen is not for the glamor of possessive football. He wants it fast, direct and decisive. We saw it in full action in the four games.

When you are talking tactical flexibility, in the game against Tunisia, he showed it to the extreme.

Finally, saying we won by a lone goal against Egypt means you are only quantifying football by just the goal scored when football is far bigger than that.

It was debated extensively here and we totally outplayed the Egyptians.

So despite all your preferences, Eguavoen did it his way and gave a good account of himself.

Finito.

Did you watch the same game or another? It's okay to be dissatisfied with the result, but that shouldn't mean rewriting recent history. It was obvious the Tunisians came with a game plan having studied our wing play attack, but Eguavon changed formation, unfortunately it happened after they got the goal. Luck wasn't on outside, simple! But to claim the Tunisians played better or controlled the game would be false

Meliforme:


I doesn't matter whether he is part of technical committee or technical crew. The fact is, the players are not new to him. The players are not even new to me, how about someone who is closer. TheGoodJoe please give up on this one.

I agree with you it is just his preference, but he prefers a style of football with a crop of players that doesn't fit his preferences at all. Against Egypt out of a total of 15 crosses from Simon and Chukwueze, only 3 were successful. Against Tunisia only 1 out of 9 crosses were successful. Our long balls come mostly from our CB's to the wings, and not even from the midfield. Some of these long balls were not even successful. The successful ones were well anticipated and the wingers successfully marked out. The wingers were not even good at building plays from the midfield, because they are not midfielders, but inverted wingers.

Check out our passing accuracy, you will see how high the accuracy of our short passes are.
This tells you that we are more of a possessive side that loves to build up play not what Eguavoen is making us play.

We were a poorly coached side and Eguavoen's tactics and preferences dealt with us. i repeat he is a rigid coach. Only against Guinea Bissau did we see some flexibility, after which he reverted to his real self.

If Eguavoen did well, i will be among the people raising his banner. Hyping good works is part of what i love to do.

Did Bayern and PSG score 4 goals in the final 10 minutes U have no idea wat we were talking about just rest

TheGoodJoe:

As I am saying, your term of poorly coached is a preference. You want the team to play a particular way.

The team is growing. I doubt that team has trained and played that way up to three weeks.

With time, a larger percentage of those crosses Will turn to goals. That is what happens when the team grows on a system.

How can you summarize the team was badly coached when the players even beat our expectations.

Did you expect Simon to perform that way? Want of Ekong and Sadiq? I was shocked how good Collins performed under him.

The coach has a strategy and we can not deny how effective it is.

Even with a man down, we could dominate the Tunisians.

Let us leave preference and be factual. Eguavoen was effective and got the team playing well and in a fierce manner.

With time, he would sort other things out.

Odunayaw:
We re a possessive side that loves to build up play? Yet we have been crying for "a midfield orchestrator"!

Cool story bro

forgiveness:
Jose Peseiro’s resume is not that bad.

He was actually in Cameroon to observe the team.

Coached a team to gain promotion from 3rd division to 1st division within 3 years.

Coached Sporting Lisbon to the 3rd place on the league and UEFA cup finals.

Coached Panathinaikos to the 3rd position in the Greece league.

Coached Aly Aly to win the Egyptian league though he left before the end of the season. The fact that he has experience in Africa counts a lot.

Coached the UAE team to a 3rd place position in the league.

Coached FC Porto

Coached Braga to finish 4th in the league and won the Portuguese cup. I think I watched that team because Echiejile was part of that team.

Coached Saudi Arabia

Coached Venezuela in the just concluded Copa America. Not bad.

possessive side when no be say we be evil spirit. Since Mikel's retirement we have tried to be more direct in our play

okoye might turn out great for us, he is still young and growing

cut him some slacks my Oga D law

TheGoodJoe:


You did not mention duty in your post. So tell us the tactical change you were suggesting first half.

Famocious:


The thing tire me oo. Seems the number of red cards is more than yellow in this tournament. A lot of questionable calls

ChrisKels:
Seems I am the only one not pained by this loss. Actually, I got distracted by the world cup playoff draw and I wanted the Eagles home early, as a wake-up call in order to give me a better outing in the double header against Ghana. I felt if we had stayed longer at the AFCON, the boys probably would have been complacent against Ghana. Now that they are hurt by this loss, they would wanna atone for it by qualifying for the world cup. I'm not perturbed.

Mujtahida:

I know my brother. But it seems he will cost us games before we get to the point where he'd turn out great.

100% Jose peseiro is a very good coach, tactically dope but the only issue he is a bit conservative and doesn't play fancy offensive football

There has been a red card in too many 2nd world games.

You are just grasping at straws. If you watch the game closely, you would have noticed Iheanacho’s duty was cut short as soon as he got a card rendering him incapacitated.

In fact, he ought to have received the second yellow card while he was trying to fulfill his duty by recovering lost balls.

You can keep praising Eguavoen but unfortunately he is long gone. Jose Peseiro is now the coach. Hehehe!
