AFTER watching Nigeria vs Congo and France vs itay I was shocked even miracle cannot save us, french boys will mean business and we will never escape them if eventually we luckily qualifies ahead of Croatia

phreakabit:



Based on the obvious fact, that we still do not have a proper LB, I suggest we play this formation, similar to what Tuchell did with BVB.

Pros:
We flood the midfield
Start our strongest 11
Press hard and fast due to densely populated midfield
2 attackers in the box.

Cons:

Unsure if Moses would work as hard as he does for Chelsea, faced with the task of playing as a winger and wing back at the same time.
Unsure if Iwobi or Musa can replicate what is expected of Moses on the other wing.
Unsure if Onazi or Ogu can press as hard as is expected of the DM in this formation.

Alternatively a 4-2-3-1 Christmas tree formation would be a good move too.
The formation looks solid wink
To combat some of the cons I'll suggest using ndidi in DM role he's a known fighter, and then pair mikel with etebo in the midfield, etebo will provide the energy and work rate necessary to play the high pressing game. But onazi should not be anywhere close to the starting XI or even the stadium angry
One more thing, moses Simon would have been ideal for the left flank in this formation, iwobi is too slow and sometimes lazy and musa has been out of form for such a long time in fact I don't know why he's Still in the team. I just hope Simon can recover in time

Maybe I'm just being patriotic but I keep having this nagging feeling that super eagles will exceed expectations
For the friendly, i want to see beautiful football, i want to see our defence tested by one of the best striker in the world (kane), if we do concede, i want to us fight to equalise or probably win, if we get a man red-carded, i want to see us maintain our shape and not crumble. I want to see our goal keeper command his area and organize his defence. All these will prep us for the world cup.
All in all, i wish the super eagles a fantastic and record breaking performance at the world cup

Xmen149:


mind you,all the listed mid fielders are either natural CM or DM there is always a large gap btw attack and midfield,. all we need is a fast,creative guy that can drop deep to collect ball then initiate attack and follow it also quickly return when the ball is loss...

now go watch our past games ...
This shows you watched previous games. I just laugh when I see folks who probably saw just one friendly match and then begin to say one player is this and that.

But England will embarrass Nigeria on the second.

Nigeria should try and reduce the number of goals. You dont have the players to do well at the world cup. Do you agree?

You were awful against Poland...you were just lucky. Against Serbia, you were dreadful. Even at home, Congo nearly rained on your parade.

What chances do you have against England who taught you football?

Ans----None.

Rashford will outpace and embarrass your old men. England goalie will be on holiday on the 2nd of June.

You registered on this forum on may 30th just for the sole purpose of insulting the super Eagles and Nigerians in general. I don't care to know where you come from but you need to take a chill pill, relax, enjoy the beautiful game! At the end of the day it's meant for relaxation and enjoyment, no point getting worked up over it undecided

Sure loss for Nigeria.

England is playing at home, Nigerian players are whack and Britain colonized Nigeria; so it will be very disrespectful for the Super Eagles to even attempt to score them.
hmmmmm
