Peseiro. Thanks for reacting early in that game. Thanks for seeing that Alex was a burden and SA was using the space he wasn't closing down. Now that we have been found out. Can you possibly switch to 4:2:3:1 in the final game?? Alhasssan & Onyeka to screen the DF, while Iwobi plays behind the CF? Or do we stick to our formation with Onyeka & Yusuf??. Also remember that Osihmen is no longer running on full capacity.

Maybe because he has not played a single match at the AFCON.

I would have preferred him. tbh.

Nevertheless, I do think Aina and osayi are solid options! Both can actually dribble too!

Marjoribanks:
So it will be Aina at LWB and Osayi at RWB!

Aina is an upgrade on Zaidu at LWB no matter how we look at it!

And Osayi is close to Aina as a RWB!

Paserio listens! I like this so much!!

Let's go Super Eagllesss!!

Aina-Simon!
Osayi-Lookman!
Mouth watering!!

You can't talk about substitute role without recalling that a prime Ighalo kept Oshimen at the bench throughout Afcon 2019. If Ighalo could do that to Osimhen, imagine what Adriano and Crespo could have done to him.

Blueelf:
Can running over the place and "all-brawn and no-brain" football be classified as everything else?

I beg to differ

Blueelf:
See Yakubu's goal against mali

Osimhen would not score it if given the chance

Enough is enough osimehn has to start scoring or moffi and nacho should be given a chance. Even the much maligned ighalo scored 5 during his last afcon

Curtisaxel17:
The CF role is not all about pressing. Positional awareness and clinicality in front of goal should be considered in selecting a striker.

codemaniacs:
he capped them for the SE... so it was not a foolish thing to do..

they did not falter against Ghana. Uzoho messed up against Ghana and Osimhen failed to score so it was Uzoho and Osimhen that faltered against Ghana.

Same way Osimhem is faltering in this AFCON but people are too sentimental to see it..

If Osimhen was not the main striker and definitely NOT Onuachu as main striker then SE would have been winning matches by at least 3 to 4 goals.

I am 80% sure Eguavoen would have called Nathan Tella or Orban Or Adams for this tournament. he might say Tella is too young same way he said Amoo was too young.

Both players came in too late to make any kind of assesment.

typicalgamer:
Peseiro is an inept coach

But one thing i give him props for is his defensive tactical awareness

Like this can be rated as the best eagles defense of all time.

If you see the fluidity in switching between zaidu and Bassey you’ll understand

The defense did a compact man marking without sacrificing width or depth

Best eagles defense ever

Joebie:
our defense has been the brain box.. very difficult to unlock.

typicalgamer:
Funny guy one to press and one to pounce on loose balls

typicalgamer:
Victor osimehn is the best thing that has ever happened to super eagles in recent years


The guy no get second like give me Two osimehn and it’s over for everybody

mrwilliams9:
Take out Zaidu abeg. Switch Simon for Yusuf. Let Iwobi play closer to Osimhen.

Good half so far. Tournament football is about being defensively solid. People dey forget say plenty AFCONs na binary footballing affair.

Cameroun will dance Makossa on your heads and I will be here for all of it on Saturday

minfelix:
But wait oo, i want to understand something, why Equatorial guinea draw with us..if they can actually score 8goals in 2matches…why was our scoring opportunity against them more than theirs in that first game?

Joebie:
Congrats to me. Just had a baby

komekn:
When your team is s doing excellent you partake in the accolades if they drop you also partake in the condemnation.

Last season was the first time in VO career where he finished the highest goal scorer in the league. After three season in Seria A.

It's one thing to be the highest goal score another incredibly hard task to maintain it. Right now he is very far off the top goal scoring charts.

That will impact on his value negatively.

Bannedlargedx2:
Bro, I am not South American and can’t speak for them. But, ask yourself if you have ever seen Lionel Messi or Cristiano playing street football in Lisbon or Buenos A years after becoming a professional? Or even tweeting unnecessarily and doing skits? If our players want to become revered they must realize that talent/hard work isn’t enough and they must realize that Professionalism, seriousness, dedication is equally as vital as talent if they want to have a career like Cristiano. Ronaldo has shown footballers the blueprint/epitome of longevity and success and it’s up to us to do it

Odunayaw:
JPes should be sensible and call up one more midfielder before it's too late. Toh

MetalJigsaw:
Funny, right?

Tobichimezie:
Osimhen lacks that elite mentality to win us key games or even carry us in the AFCON like the likes of JayJay, Oliseh, Aghahowa etc did in the 2002 AFCON. I know most of us hate to hear this truth, but Osimhen isn't THAT GUY, no player on this current team has that world class cutting edge ability to carry and lead this present crop of SE players.
