Dey play. Wait until you know who comes to start telling how Benjamin plays in a low level league who cannot make the bench of an EPL side.

That Tosin plays for Chelsea and has shown proven quality against bla bla bla.

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣. Tosin we de gba for Chelsea. Make that guy no near Super Eagles oo. I follow for people wey been de talk say make we call am.

Cocony:
Wetin you understand or misunderstand?
Akinsanmiro is an average if not below average player for now playing for a hapless team albeit loaned out to a hapless bottom placed team.
I will rather make a case for including a GIFT ORBAN in attack than an Ebenezer Akinsanmiro in our midfield based on all Serie A matches both have played.
Conclusively some recommendations seen and supported here bear some undertone of ethnicity. Same with not calling out Ademola Lookman's flaws just because of an APOTY award.

I am an igbo, I want Lookman to start the next match. And I want Akinsamiro to be invited. And another thing. i want Kayode to be convinced to join the SE. So dead this your agenda

Papi85:
they need younger understudies. The former Arsenal youth teamer now with Blackburn will do well as Aina’s cover

That kid is good

We need to do everything to convince Kayode of Brentford. Just that his thrown will be invaluable

mekabuachi:
If it remains 1-1 will there be extra time or straight to penalties

extra time

See wetin Osihmen miss. SMH

Akor

Nwabali eeeh Tufiakwa

Our Midfield is open like doughnut

Unlimited22:
The ref just wanted to avoid controversy after we Don already raise hell say na Southy man


Also this is why you should take your chances. Gabon have started very well and could well be ahead here.

Exactly.

Papi85:
Good call, shebi this na the SA referee wey una been dey cry fowl about?

Is a bad call, its a penalty. Although I like it.

Thats a penalty oo, make we no lie

We are not clinical enough at the frontline at all

In the last 5 mins and injury time, Iwobi has been playing against us.
Ndidi is not putting his body enough as he is on yellow card.

Our back 4 and Nwabali has been fantastic.

ChrisKels:
Chelle no rate Uche.

Uche doesn't get game time at Palace

Eric Chelle must use this lineup agaisnt Gabon for Solidity. When Ajayi returns he replaces Awaziem.

Second half bring in Moses Simon and Frank Onyeka to shore up the team. And may be Akor for Lookman in the dying minutes

yinkeys:
Somebody tell Troost Ekong to use jump ropes like boxers do to improve his footwork, reaction time & pace

I dont expect him to feature at in the play offs. Let him just be in the squad for leadership

afrodoc2:
Sekou Kone is back.

He might go on loan in January.

Good one.
Why is INEOS nlt using NIce the way Chelsea and City are using Girona and Strasbourg to train players. We should be sending some of our under 21s there.

semid4lyfe:
You just reminded me of how that Rwanda defender offed him in our WCQ match in Uyo 😔

Even in training, players get injured.
In fact, its not impossible for his clubmate and Gabonese player, Mario Lemina to off him during club training to prevent him from playing the Gabon game.

Hurdles still plenty for Osimhen to cross before turning out for us on the 13th. Nothing wey person fit do but to be prayerful and hopeful.

God abeg o.

Just weekend Match. Not just him all our key players. Thank God Chukwueze and Onyedika are back from Injury.

123jamessmith:
Please, Sammy Ajayi is not going to play against gabon, due to suspension. Players that have yellow cards in the regular concluded qualifying serious, will they carry the yellow card into the player off.

If we win Gabon he will be eligible to play the next match hence, the invitation

minfelix:
i gallantly highlighted all the games 6 important games Osimhen missed while lookman was fully fit spearheading as the starman/poster boy of the team in those games….Osimhen also scored in the 3-0 match against Benin

Osihmen came from the bench in that match. However, lookman was very important that period for people to come and be shi.tting on him now due to club issues is unfair

solonnachi:
23 man list by Owngoal

When did Moritz Jens become Nigerian Player?

minfelix:
boss Lookman no score any plenty goals when Osimhen was injured ooo
Nigeria 1-1 Lesotho
Zimbabwe 1-1 Nigeria
Benin 2-1 Nigeria
Nigeria 1-1 SA
Nigeria 2-1 Ghana (Lookman scored 1goal here)
Mali 2-0 Nigeria
Lookman played in all these games oo while Osimhen was out injured

You carefully removed the match agaisnt Benin were Lookman scored 2 goals.

MetalJigsaw:
He's not saying Adams is superior.

So if Lookman is superior why shouldnt he start?

semid4lyfe:
Abeg, when squad list go commot? Other countries don dey their release list o.

DR Congo mean business. Three former Belgium youth players don switch to play for them in the WC playoffs. On pape, DR Congo has a better squad than Cameroun and I tip them and Nigeria for the final.

See their full squad for the playoffs

Goalkeepers: Matthieu Epolo (Standard Liege, Belgium), Timothy Fayulu (Noah, Armenia), Lionel Mpasi (Le Havre, France)

Defenders: Rocky Bushiri (Hibernian, Scotland), Gédéon Kalulu (Aris Limassol, Cyprus), Steve Kapuadi (Legia Warsaw, Poland), Joris Kayembe (Racing Genk, Belgium), Arthur Masuaku (Sunderland, England), Chancel Mbemba (Olympique de Marseille, France), Axel Tuanzebe (Burnley, England), Aaron Wan-Bissaka (West Ham United, England)

Midfielders: Theo Bongonda (Spartak Moscow, Russia), Michel-Ange Balikwisha (Glasgow Celtic, Scotland), Edo Kayembe (Watford, England), Nathanael Mbuku (Montpellier, France), Samuel Moutoussamy (Atromitos, Greece), Ngal'ayel Mukau (Lille, France), Charles Pickel (Espanyol, Spain), Noah Sadiki (Sunderland, England), Mario Stroeykens (Anderlecht, Belgium)

Forwards: Cedric Bakambu (Real Betis, Spain), Samuel Essende (Augsburg, Germany), Brian Cipenga (Castellón, Spain), Meshack Elia (Alanyaspor, Turkey), Fiston Mayele (Pyramids, Egypt).

Cameroon that has Carlos Baleba, Frank Zambo Anguisa, Bryan Mbeumo, Etta-Young and Jackson Tchatchoou of Wolves? 🤣🤣. And Onana in goal? As bad as he is, he is good in African standard. He even shut down Osihmen yesterday in Turkish league

kennysville:
At no point did I say we should discard him. If we can get Luku to keep things simple, we will get more results...

In the words of Indians... Simpal....!!!!

There is nothing like keep simple. Allow him to play his game. Anyways Thank God you are not the coach.

Na Lookman you wan bench and play Akor.
Lookman that has transfer issues, immediately he settled with the club they restored him in the starting eleven, he even scored last week.

Samueltemi337:
So Lookman at AFCON killed the momentum of our attack?

Same Lookman that was spearheading our attack scoring goals during AFCON qualifiers is suddenly killing our attack because he didnt score in the last qualification rounds. SMH

kennysville:
Better in the colors of Atalanta or of Nigeria? Cos left to me, the dude kills off the momentum of our Attack and is always glory hunting

Kills which attack? Guy go and take sit with this una agenda. The same Lookman that scored plenty goals and was carrying us when Osihmen was injured. Same Lookman that scored winning goals in AFCON R16 and quaterfinals. Same Look.an that assisted Osihmen only goal in AFCON is killing our attack because Akor scored on his debut agaisnst Lesotho? So if you be coach, if them keep Lookman and Akor for you as option you go bench Lookman? That shows our football knlwlwdge as fans

NIGHTMARE0O7:
Akor in place of lookman.
He should play from bench abeg.
Exactly that team that played benin is what we want..whats wrong with yall

Lookman is far far superior than Akor Adams. We Nigerians should stop being reactionary and think deeply.

Martinez don sell match 🤣🤣

Unpopular opinion and i know a lot of people will criticise me for this. But we should have bought Ekitike who is actually a Man United fan instead of Sesko. Sesko is good and will get better, but Ekitike is more solid and clinical which would have suited our game more.

afrodoc:
We have to beat Spurs next weekend or we will be back in 10th position.

Hmmmn that one go hard o

EPL refs are not consistent, they are terrible. How is that not a red card for gods sake
