We cannot lose like this to Brazil

Our case will even be worse

The bright side is that we’ll definitely score

But with our current defense 5-1 guaranteed

The English might have invented football,but the Brazilians really perfected it... The squad depth in that team is mad!


You're right. But Nigeria also has mad squad depth just that our local coaches and technical coaches don't have a playing pattern and don't prioritize team work and also don't prioritize crossing and set plays or set pieces.

Brazil's teamwork, set pieces and wing plays and quick football is what making them beat Ghana.

2 of Brazil's goals are from set pieces. The second goal was Richalison's first time shot, most Nigerian players won't shoot that one first time.

Even super eagles will give Brazil too much respect

They’re playing against their idols duh

All of a sudden all Ghana players forgot how to play ball for friendly

And World Cup pressure never start o

We played Brazil in a friendly 3 years ago and drew with them..
Argentina and England are two top teams we have played against and not get humiliated

Alhassan won't flop. He is brainier than several of our midfield players in the middle game. He won't flop. And you obviously haven't watched him enough. You need to take your time to watch him without bias before making statements that won't age well.

Alhassan is better than Frank Onyeka both from tactical and technical points of views and we need that compared to a lad whose main attribute is running around, covering grounds like a headless work merchant.


And K.Nwakali will definitely fit right in and a midfield of himself and Iwobi is indeed tactically feasible
sir super analyst, explain this please. I want to learn

Nigeria do not have mad squad anything. Just few average ball playing players. The rest are overrated that are just playing for the money.

Belgium don't have the kind of squad Brazil has..
Hazard is no longer as good as he was, so it's mostly De Bryune carrying the team...
South Americans generally play football better than the Europeans... The Europeans just have the best sporting infrastructure in the world which is a huge advantage

Alhassan will flop in Super Eagles. I have watched him play. I don't see him fit the profile of a National team player. However, Nwakali will excel in JP system. He is the type of DM/CM he needs. Can pass, shoot and dribble. I would have loved to see Nwakali and Iwobi's midfield 2 against Algeria.
You can't have a Midfield duo of Iwobi and Nwakali especially against a top team like Algeria. Both of them are not so good defensively which means our midfield will be an expressway. Infact, Iwobi and Etebo played well because Sao Tome was a lesser team.

Ghana aren't giving Brazil respect. Brazil is creating and taking their chances while Ghana isn't creating and taking their chances..

Football is about creating chances to score, the Ghanaian players are not creating scoring chances.

I wonder self..
We had Ajayi, Ekong, Collins and Awazeim in defence...

If we play them now, our best defensive set up would be Akpogunma at RCB, Bassey at LCB, Aina and Zaidu on the flanks... a better defensive set up than that of 2019 IMO ... Na goalkeeper be the issue

What’s the difference between their attack now and the set we faces 3 years ago.

3 years ago vini jr was a scam
3 years ago ndidi was god of DM
No raphinha
3 years ago richalison was feather weight
3 years ago Neymar was the focal point of the attack

Which Nigeria player except iwobi, has made significant improvements in the last 3 years to stand toe to toe against this Brazilian. Team

Remember they’re Fxcking ghana without lube, same Ghana we couldn’t breakdown their midfield.

We drew with Algeria team B
All of a sudden Brazil is beneath us

Oga wake up to reality that Nigeria will never pass round of 16 in the next 30 years in a world up.

Your problem is you're used to the lean midfield Nigerian coaches use.

Nigeria should have a starting midfield four of iwobi nwakali Ndidi onyedika while bonke onyeka alhassan-yusuf etebo should be on the bench..

For Nigeria to be successful at least 7 midfielders should always be called up.

You're capping too much cheesy. When was the last time Nigeria even at their worst form were humiliated by a wide goal margin by any team? Give us an instance...

The problem with people like you is that you fail to see the positives in things around you.. You prefer to focus on the negatives in the name of "speaking the truth".
At Atlanta 1996, we faced a star studded Brazilian team and we won.. Likewise Argentina...
