komekn: First of all its your consistent, outstanding club and league performances that get you national team call up.
This is why when a player is in s higher and better club it gives you propulsion to the national team.
When a player does well he gets noticed.
There is a reason Sanusi is not in a top 5 league and or club. In addition we really cannot say how good he is until he plays week in and week out in a better club league against opposition players who are faster, stronger and technically better.
. Bros abeg abeg this is new year. Which one be say sanusi has not played against higher opposition wetin be champions league abi u no watch how he pocket mahrez . I personally like the improvement ola aina is getting this is what we want, to make eagles strong. Zaidu sanisu is class and I so know he will perform well if a bigger club comes since Porto now is not big in your eyes. Ola aina u are even over hyping what did he do in Torino that is extraordinary ?Omo take am easy oo. Everybody won't be in bigger clubs the same time the question is how well are u doing in that same club to attract bigger clubs?last time I check he is nailing it. Sanusi trajectory in football in a space of 2-3years is amazing. Give him that respect.
2innocent: as regards big club, Leicester is certainly a big club as at now, so if na just big club ndidi dey find , he no need go anywhere. abi Leicester na small club?
I don't know whether I am correct though. I feel ndidi operates more effectively in defensive midfield role when not paired . I also feel Rhor should adopt this 4-1-4-1 formation. Seriously that guy is a monster there now.
andrewbaba44: Pride no go allow them apologize ,when we Dey tell them then dem Dey talk nonsense I come Dey wonder Wetin make these guys Dey talk like this with so much confidence ,you go think say mendy na casemeiro or Kante
TheGoodJoe: Ironically, my late Twin brother used to be a coach of one of the departments in Enugu State University of Technology. He was also tactical too.
TheGoodJoe: One of Bielsa's student might be coming to Europe soon and he will be coming with fire. He is like the Guardiola of South America.
Marcelo Gallardo. Been a huge fan of him since his playing days. Like Diego Simeone, he was part of the Atlanta 96 Argentine side. Was on the bench though for Ortega
"What Gallardo has done with River is incredible, the level of results, giving them consistency every year despite the fact that they lose players...I do not understand why he is not nominated [for Fifa BEST coach in the world]” - Pep Guardiola
kendrick93: I made a simple comment and next thing i have butthurt fanboys attacking me in my mentions. Truth is this thread doesn't like anyone speaking the truth, anyone who does so is an hater/enemy... Let me say it again, not everyone is a Zombie. I will keep on posting my observations here,anyone who feels offended, that's your own cup of tea. Cheers...
true. You have right to to that. Let's just back it up with statistics and all that. We are all here for the good of Nigeria football beside this is super eagles trend. so you should expect bashing. When you back your statement with statistics it makes more sense and allow people to see another angle . Peace bro
kendrick93: Whatever dude. Simple fact is Napoli are looking better without their record signing.. Only a fool would deny that
. Omo take am easy. so you expect Gattuso to lose because osimhen had injury, so what is the essence of back up players? Some people sha. When the young man comes back he will be integrated into the team. Your statement clearly shows your motive. Even if you want to analyse situation, do it with decorum.
temi1290: Abi, with all the gra gra wey Leeds dey do dem still dey chop am.
. I am always full of joy watching them play. Their losses against these big teams is just based on higher player quality from these bigger teams . imagine belsa with man u team or even Chelsea team
TheGoodJoe: Zaidu Sanusi played very well. That is not what I am talking about. He defended well. I think he had a brilliant goal line interception of Sterling's shot which the commentator praised his reading of the place Sterling was to shoot to.
My problem was violent plays that were unnecessary.
TheGoodJoe: Zaidu Sanusi annoyed me with his repeated violent plays against Foden. He would have injured the Young Man for no reason.
I found that really displeasing.
calm down master . PEP tried mahrez against him no show, now foden nothing came out. It shows you how this guy has improved. Just give it to him.I believe he must have done that to instil fear in foden. Its part of the game.
Warripikine: Italian Pundit Labels Osimhen The Biggest Flop In Serie A, More Than Ex-Spurs Star Eriksen
Italian football pundit Marcello Chirico has ripped into Victor Osimhen, labeling the Napoli striker the biggest flop in the Italian Serie A at the moment, more than ex-Tottenham Hotspur midfielder Christian Eriksen who has struggled since moving to Inter Milan.
Chirico believes the Nigeria international has not justified the hefty fee that could rise to around 80 million euros Napoli paid Lille to secure his signature in the summer transfer window.
Despite having a hand in three goals (2 goals, 1 assist) from his six appearances in the Italian top-flight, Chirico has insisted that Osimhen has not been up to scratch.
There were high hopes surrounding the signing of the 2015 U17 World Cup winner by Napoli after making his mark at Lille with 18 goals over the course of 2019-2020.
"Everyone says that Eriksen was the biggest flop of the championship for now. agreement. For me the great disappointment is represented by Victor Osimhen," Chirico told 7 Gold (via Area Napoli).
"They portrayed him as a top player. They paid a lot for him, but it doesn't seem to me that he is doing great things, on the contrary ... "
Osimhen is unlikely to be available for selection when Napoli face AC Milan on Sunday after dislocating his shoulder while on international duty.
Guys do you agree with this..because I dont
probably he smoked weed. He should sought out his mental health.
. I will prefer a 352 with akpoguma/ekong/awaziem(right side of the defence) aina or ebuehi as RWB, SANUSI as LWB . ARIBO/ETEBO/IWOBI: though I will consider ajayi/shehu in place of aribo if need be as the match progresses. Chukwueze/ iheanacho and ejuke as front line.
smartsmith0907: Instead of arguing over spilled milk Let's us just drop our preferred line ups Here and have full insight on the next match.
very good suggestion. But baba rohr no dey hear. The man is too rigid. We will still see akpoguma at RB, MUSA as midfielder and the funny thing is that he has every excuse to give for that.
Never a time has semi and ekong worked . the same goal pattern( a player heading the ball in between the two defenders)was the same way Lesotho scored their first goal. Rohr should learn from his mistakes. How i wish the man will resign.
1realBobby: This is very possible... If you know osimhen very well, you would know that the lad always takes his health seriously.... if he suffers a minor scratch on the field of play and he is uncertain how bad it is, he always makes it look serious so he can be substituted and checked out properly...
bro, you really sabi osimhen. No wonder you can be so sure with your cash of his scoring ability.
smartsmith0907: Let's just stop crying over a spilled milk ....I can assure you guys the next match will be totally different ....sierra Leone don price market and they must pay...we have learnt some lessons in the match..and such mistake won't be made in the subsequent match ....I heard a call has been forward to maja to replace osihmen..but I'll try to confirm from the other technical crew. We move
. Hmm. Nigeria beating those guys at their backyard. Very hard.
Mickael2: Bros, at 4-2 up, you could have subbed in Yobo self and it wouldn't be that. You just need defensive minded players. The Leone guys had no strategy basically, hoof it forward, win the first header and just move it over to the wings and somehow our coach left Etebo(5ft tall) against their long balls when we could easily shift Ajayi to DMF and just put any idiot in CB and we would hold them off comfortably, win the first balls and their game is gone. Like this is so basic it makes no sense
. I begin to ask, what was then the essence of ajayi playing DM in our last two friendlies? The man dey smoke something. Is just show there is nothing he is learning. Algeria won us with the same strategy they used in nation cup. I was supporting this man,but today his cup is full. He hasn't learnt anything. He should be sacked
Mickael2: Then that means squad selection was terrible if you don't have a spare DMF. This was a very very simple substitution, even if you wanted to do like for like, sub out Aribo for another DMF who will plug the holes, chase the balls. You said he switched to a 3-5-2, why would you then sub in Ejuke? So basically he had three forwards Onuachu, Nacho and Ejuke, how is that even 3-5-2 in your dictionary bros? The dude did not play any 3-5-2 today so forget that first. When he subbed off Oshimen, Onuachu had no business in the game Na with Nacho already in the match, keep that sub slot open, probably put in Ejuke and move Nacho central, then save that Oshimen sub and put in a defensive midfielder or even at worse put in a CB and move Ajayi into DMF, he is terrible with the ball at his feet but he can win balls, we didn't win any single long ball, I mean ffs it was Etebo against one tall MF from SL. No matter how you look at it, there were countless options that would be better, wasn't it the other day that even Klopp subbed Salah for Milner against SHU?
. Seriously I the error was made when he subbed in iheanacho for musa. I was thinking of what essence and ajayi for balogum? I am still trying to know the reason for that blunder. That guy na scam.
busky007: Then should we continue sacking coaches because of average players? Will average players continue winning Tournaments?
. The players from sierra Leone are they better than ours man to man? Bro , the coach is wack. Is not by average players besides these players put in nice shifts for their club sides. A good coach will use these guys well.
