Mickael2:


He isn't a better passer than all these players except maybe Onazi and that is because his style of play doesn't require that

Daninya111:


Is this a joke?.
We have Alloy Agu to blame.

Can you imagine a team experimenting in a tournament.

darkelf:

Afelokhai should be given a look in

darkelf:


I get you.

And I am saying that Alampasu, Ezenwa, Uzoho and Akpeyi don't deserve to be in the SE. They don't deserve to be invited.

komekn:


You completely have no idea what you are talking about.

Some of these boys are more Nigerian than you.

realpoacher:


Joke as in.... Baba Uzoho is better than Akpeyi by far


He should be starting instead of Akpeyi.

mostob:
it won't be bad to let him taste some action na. After all he will get paid. Who knows he might have saved that mahrez's free kick

Daninya111:


What if he concedes a cheap goal today and ruin our chances of getting bronze today?, like picking up the ball across the line? Lols.

As for that mahrez free kick I have watched the game over and over again. Akpeyi has a godfather no doubt.

mostob:
nothing to lose bro. Make Uzoho play small. Akpeyi really bleeped up with that free kick

Earthquake2:


Ok maybe you don't watch Balogun or you don't know these players I mentioned

And for your information Onazi is the most decent passer among the carpenter crew

Drtega:
Uzoho to start .... Confirmed

Truidstar:


Brilliant how? What has he done or achieved in the last 5 years? Does he have the mental strength to resist the temptation of inducement from so called player agents? No local coach for me.

TheSuperNerd:
I know this is hindsight but Mahrez would not have beaten Uzoho in goal for that freekick. Akpeyi is just too poor in organizing a wall and positioning himself.

I recall even the great Messi couldn't beat Uzoho from similar close range, edge-of-the-box-kinda fk at Russia 2018. Uzoho tipped it to the post. Sigurdsson too could not beat him.
Even with that said, Uzoho is also average (on the better side of average if you ask me compared to Akpeyi) and needs to improve. He is still 20 and I trust he can. But Akpeyi is never going to get better. It is too late.

Barryseal:

Let's not insult our sensibilities, Why are they not jumping at the chance to represent Nigeria, if they are more Nigerian than everyone? Doing zanku steps at African themed parties doesn't make you Nigerian.

Odunayaw:
Messi's FK wasn't at such inviting & dangerous position (especially for a left footer). In fact Messi was standing at the far right side of the box edge

TheGoodJoe:

Brilliant is totally different from character. I talked about Sylvanus Okpala's tactical acumen.

By the way, the highlight of Sylvanus Okpala's coaching career was him playing a big part in the tactical displays of the Super Eagles when we won the AFCON under Keshi.

When he was sacked by the NFF, Keshi fought tooth and nail to get Okpala back because Keshi understood Okpala's importance tactically.

TheSuperNerd:
It didn't matter because Messi has scored multiple times from such position. His left foot is not like any other my good man. Messi scored from similar position with his left foot against USA at the 2016 Copa America. That guy is dangerous on the right and the left. You know this. Messi taking a FK is unlike any other taking one except CR7 who is in same league.

Taliban:
Few more hours to the greatest losers final game. Carthage Eagles vs Super Eagles. Which of the Eagles will get de-winged? All roads leas to thensure epic encounter. Tunisia are not taking the game lightly and may stop at nothing to ensure they defeat Nigeria and win the coveted beautiful bronze medal.

Any feelers from our camp or insight into tomorrow's lineup. Will Osihmen show the coach what he has missed, would Ogu produce another own goal assist?

Waiting earnestly for the game tomorrow so Nigerians could be proud of their team again.

At the 2014 WC in Brazil, our greatest of all time messed up something worse than Uzoho's from same Messi. Uzoho has never been beaten by a freekick before in the green and white gear

Daninya111:


The first day my younger sister saw Akpeyi in goal against Algeria in Uyo. She shouted saying,"shaking methodology". She went further to say he exude 0 confidence and will bleep us up big time one day.she laughed when he conceded that bullet shot saying dude couldn't even lift himself.

It has happened. I just hope Coach Rohr retires today and make him crew follow am. As for Alloy Agu, posterity will judge him.

he wasn't really "brilliant" when he coached Rangers Int'l
