In modern day football, 424 isn’t a balanced formation. I will go with Dennis and osimehn as my forwards and play one of lookman or Simon on the wings. I’m not compromising my 3 man midfield for any player.

that's the point..

Dennis drops to midfield and defense too often and can alternate between lookman and simon on the wings which means Dennis can play two positions Striker and Attacking midfield..

or try the image below ( don't mind the player numbers).

13large:
Dennis is the number 1 wing forward and osimehn is undroppable. You cannot omit Dennis that has 14 G + A assist contribution. We need purposeful players vs Ghana

that's the point...

Osimhen and Dennis as forwards because Osimhen is not a Dennis kind of player from what I watched against FC Barcelona that likes to drop to midfield and sometimes defense in order to get the ball forward..

then Lookman on the LW and Simon on the right wing.

with Ndidi and Onyeka in DM.

13large:
I will pick Lookman ahead of Simon on that LW position. His end product is much more productive than Simon own

then move Simon to Chuks wing..

maidaboi:
my four wingers for Ghana will be
Lookman
Simon
Chuks
Dennis

Ejuke should be excused for now

Ejuke showed more passion than Chuks during the AFCON...

Chuks had a lackadaisical attitude during the AFCON..

with chuks, most of the S.E attack will go through Simon's wing and the S.E will be very predictable... so its Chuks that should be excused...

with Ejuke, he will run at defenders at take shots at goal which will reduce the pressure on Simon's wing..

the Chuks in S.E is different from the one in Villareal... S.E doesn't need that type of player in the starting 11 but on the bench..

Many of our politicians when they cannot engage you in a SUBSTANSIVE based discussion. They will resort to tribalism, evasion of FACTS, infantile name calling and telling bare faced LIES.

You typify the Nigerian politician all wind and fresh air no substance.

The way you rate Europe born players above Nigerian born players is a combination of extreme racism and tribalism..

If you were in charge of any sporting federation in Nigeria... You will create an apartheid system,

I fight racists and tribalists like you with my own version of tribalism..

In a country like Nigeria, tribalism is very important...

Most Nigerian politicians don't engage anyone in any discussion, don't resort to tribalism because if they were tribalists Nigeria will be very developed, they don't evade facts , they don't do infantile name calling and they don't tell bare faced lies, they just assume and think they are talking to dull people..

which is the same way you talk to people on this thread, you assume everyone on this thread is dull and lack intelligence. you are condescending towards people on this thread which makes you a racist and tribalist. You are condescending towards Nigerian born and raised players which also makes you a racist and tribalist.

You are the one who typifies the Nigerian politician all wind and fresh air no substance.

Any Nigerian that doesn't support and highly rates Nigerians born and raised in Nigeria is a basta:rd..

and should never accuse Nigerians that support Nigerians born and raised in Nigeria of tribalism...

Meliforme:
When concerns are on defensive duties in the here and now, Omeruo is ahead of Calvin Ughelumba Bassey, the gap is even wide. Yes i said the gap is wide.

I don't know how you guys rate players, maybe your basis for rating might be on league quality, while league quality is a valid basis, it is not the only basis.

After a little study on Calvin and Akpoguma, i saw that they were rightly excluded from the AFCON tourney, Also i saw why Olisa Ndah was on the list despite plying his trade in South Africa.

Calvin is a young player and has shown growth, the potential to be the best is right with him, but we acknowledge the situation with him in the here and now.

komekn doesn't rate any Nigeria born and raised players..

For him, As long as they are born in England or in E:urope or U.S.A then that immediately means they are better than Nigerian born and raised players..

So please for your sake don't engage him when its between Nigeria born and raised players and players born in Europe.

You lack knowledge and you have no understanding.

In most EPL clubs they have different phases off development. I know a EPL club that contracted the former assistant manager at Sao Paulo FC Brazil to head up the u9-13 development phase.

To teach them skills, technical ability, touch, etc Because after that age it becomes difficult to teach those particular skill sets.

Now look at England youth footballers do you see any of the old kick and rush , footballers anymore. Look at Eze, Tega Abraham, Iwobi, Mount, Reece, etc

But we in Nigeria have remained stagnant we have not developed our football and movef ahead. Just like many of our academic lecturers still using notes of decades ago to teach today.

Years ago I looked at Victor O, when he was at Wolfsburg and l made it clear that he would not make it into a good academy. He was technically poor.

Physically outstanding and Fast a big YES and he has used his physical attributes to overcome inadequacies in his technical ability, to get ahead. I said he needed to drop league go to a lower league learn, develop and them move up.

Well he has done that and has left Lille and gone to Napoli. However, some of those handicaps are still there and they will prevent him from getting to the top if not addressed.

This is a problem with home grown players from local academies and leagues. This is why we quite a few cannot even cross the ball properly.

It was Philosopher1979 I quoted not you... The topic was about how Osimhen was failing at beating FCB highline and not about skills, technical ability, touch e.t.c.

Osimhen and all our homegrown players have good skills, technical ability, touch.

It was Iwobi's poor touch that made him get red card against Tunisia so where is your knowledge and sense in the what you're saying.

13large:
At the expense of who? Remember, a team can only invite 11, 23 or 28 man squad. Dessers, yes but the remaining absolutely No. let them perform at a better league before thinking of the super eagles. Super eagles is a place for the absolute best - No exceptions. We’re not here to do charitable invitation

Maduka Okoye benefitted from charitable invitation and that skyrocketed his career..

Some Nigerian players careers will only skyrocket when they play for the S.E.

13large:
Yes I agree but not against Ghana except injuries. We need certified proven and tested vs Ghana and there’s absolutely no case for experimentation

He needs to be at least on the bench against Ghana...

Same way Dessers, Amoo, Samuel Adegbenro should have been at the AFCON at least on the bench.

Philosopher1979:
You see most homegrown Nigerian footballers are poorly coached. Our football system does not care about coaching and it is very important.
When they get to Europe it becomes obvious. You can't just survive on your raw talent alone. We need to declare a coaching emergency in Nigeria. Most Nigerian coaches probably don't teach their payers even the simple and basic things.

Has nothing to do with homegrown players he has been playing in Europe for years and should already know this things unless they're not telling him since most Europeans don't know how to relate to Africans.

You don't have to abuse or be condescending to someone or a group of people just to make your point.

charlesemeka85:
garcia is over hyped while Araujo is the real deal. Even United wants him with other big team

Meanwhile our own Calvin bassey is very good,linked with a move to the epl next season. Dude is once for the future and should be integrated to the current super eagles set up

Bassey needs to at least be on the bench .. he is not for the future he is for now and today..

If someone like you had seen Mes:si or c.ronaldo or Pele you'll have said his one for the future and their talent will go to waste..

yinkeys:
You mean gaining weight like Awoniyi

If he doesn't watch his weight he'll be fatter than Awoniyi...

TheLoneCitizen:
Osimhen vs Barca. One of the poorest offside awareness I've seen from a striker in any match.

He doesn't look over his shoulders and his gaining weight..

zuchyblink:
Onuachu's problem is his age. Nigeria is known for age manipulation. Onuachu is almost 28 and I know they must have added 7 years to his age. Tell me one Nigeria player born in Nigeria that made a big money switch at 27.

zuchyblink:
I can only write it on Nairaland and no where else. I am trying to let you know how they see Nigerian players born in Nigeria. A 20 year old Onuachu would have made a big money or a move to Europe top 5 leagues Onuachu has done better than Osimehn in Belgium but his problem remains the age perception.

watch what you type on the internet...

Nigeria is not known for age falsification.. delete that comment..

Onuachu's problem is the fact that his not fast and doesn't press... Anyone who watch him against West Ham will understand his issues..

It's not just about them doubting his age.. its also about the transfer fee that his club is asking for...

Joebie:
You go sabi discriminate o.

It's not discrimination to give other players opportunities..

jihday:
no, the most talented players should be given opportunities

Talented young players should be given opportunities..

komekn:
The best Nigerian should be given opportunity in the national team, irrespective of age.

Young does not automatically equate to quality and neither does longevity.

There's no such thing as the best Nigerian. Young equates to more energy and from what Salzburg is doing young also equates to more work rate..

Sugarboyy:
Since you do not agree, i think you should come up with your superior argument.

For me, i think the people determines their kind of leaders. when the people are good, they will get good leaders and when the people are bad, they will also get bad leaders because these so called bad leaders weren't imported from other countries, neither did they fell from the sky.

The Nigerian people must never be exonerated from today's Nigeria decay, we all should be help responsible just like our so called bad leaders

African presid:ents are chosen by e:uropeans in order to serve e:uropeans interests..

Most African countries especially west African countries are under indirect rule..

13large:
At the expense of who? When I vent hard on people here, they will act like I’m childish when they’re the one suggesting asinine suggestions. You want to drop one of our big 3 players like Chukwueze, dennis, lookman, kalu or our big 5 wingers Simon for an inexperienced backwater league player “amoo”? Amoo looks like a talented youngster, but he has to excel tremendously at that backwater league or perform decent at a big 3, 5 in order to replace the incumbent ones. I didn’t even include Ejuke, nwakaeme, onyekuru

Salzburg strikers are all under the age of 22 years old..

Younger Nigerians should be given opportunities in the national team..

andrewbaba44:
E no waste time

S.E should give Amoo caps as soon as possible.

andrewbaba44:
Chibuike adamu just came in for Salzburg ,immediately I checked he was born in Kano but has already been capped by the Austrian national team

I hope we get to see Samson Tijani play today

He has scored.

13large:
He wasn’t as poor as some of you guys are saying. Even so, his replacement must be superior to him or the same level not inferior. Let amoo prove himself at the big 3 leagues before he can think of benching a big 3 player. I think “YouTube” deceives some of you cabu cabu analyst

He was so poor that most of our attacks went through Simon's wing..

so all the opposition has to do is close down Simon's wing since they know Chuks wing is toothless with Chuks playing there and he wasn't tracking back.

Kog45:
What thinking...my man Ejuke was poor....before Afcon I always seen Ejuke and Chuckwueze as our game changer but the duo flopped.

Ejuke wasn't poor..

Kog45:
Picking Amoo over Chuckwueze must be a joke.......unless Eguavoen gave Amoo the same opportunity he gave Nwakili and he grabbed it.

Chuks was poor in the AFCON and must be benched.. Chuks must know that he's replaceable..

It's thinking like yours that made Eguavoen not to put Ejuke on the list against Tunisia..

13large:
You prefer an inexperienced player at a backwater league to someone that has proved himself at the biggest stage in the world? You’re a dunce. Let amoo go can prove himself at a bigger league before he can think of benching chukwueze. If chukwueze was playing in Swedish or danish league, how many goals would he be scoring in a season

Chuks was poor in the AFCON. So for me it's either Ejuke, Dennis or Amoo on that wing..

charlesemeka85:
when I tell you guys that the hate for kids born in the diaspora is real here una go say I be as****licker

We are suppose to be happy that a great addition as lookman is in our disposal now but to few here they are just pained to see another British born player in the mix

The only 2 wingers based on current form that I won’t drop for lookman in the current eagles set up is Simon and Dennis, others lookman is better than them based on current form

what you fail to realize is that S.E is having a "golden generation" from both Nigerian born players and foreign born players and since the foreign born players are not sure if they want to play for S.E then lets go for the ones that are sure... that's the summary... the only position where we haven't found golden generation is GK..

a formation of:

Osimhen Dennis

Simon Lookman Amoo

Ndidi Aribo

Ekong Omeruo Ajayi

Uzoho


I prefer Amoo to chuks because Amoo scores from outside the box and cuts inside...

Kingsolar:
Just got a name that's being appraiseby GoDaddy at $1,890. Should I go ahead to register it or I should submit to SH review. Please

Submit for review because they can reject it.

If you've already appraised it there's a chance someone else can register it so don't buy it yet just submit for review.

You can also sign up at name/worth and appraise it there if it's tier 2 then it might get accepted. But SH has rejected some of my tier 2 names.

13large:
In the past 2 years and presently, Epl isn’t just one of the best leagues in the world, it is the BEST league in the world. You forgot the part that I said “inform” if any of the players you listed can perform at the big 3, they will take precedence over backwater league players. Quality over Quantity. There’s a reason why I didn’t rank lookman ahead of dennis on current form

If a player performs in any league that player should be a priority.. not everyone will play in the EPL no matter it's ranking.

13large:
He can play on both RW and lw. By playing at the best league in the world and being in form, he is already ranked higher than Simon, ejuke, onyekuru, musa and olayinka.

EPL is not the best league in the world.... it is the european league with the highest rating in Europe... just because someone plays there does not make them better than other players... You can't compare the opportunities someone who was born in England will get in England compared to people born outside England..

If Lookman was better than Simon, Leeds will be after him... samuel kalu just joined Watford does that make him better than simon, onyekuru, olayinka, ejuke

Beloved03:
Better at the moment than the Ejuke and Chukwueze we currently have.

He plays Simon's wing not Ejuke and Chukwueze's and Amoo's wing..

Stormtrooper11:
Lol. What do you mean meant to be poor? NO HUMAN WAS BORN TO SUFFER! Get that straight. I bet if you was Swiss, you'll believe you were meant to be poor cos Switzerland ain't have natural resources. All these states above the Niger and benue produce alotta foodstuffs and grains for the nation. Get your facts.

Stop cappin conspiracy theories and actin tribalistic. I'm a student of history. Don't involve General Ironsi in this.

Lol. You believe IDPs are foreign agents lol. I just hope you never get in a middle of a conflict zone. The insurgency is a result of the failure of the Nigerian government to crush these rebels in the first instance. The Maitasine were crushed in Kano by the military government in the 1980s within weeks. If it was a "Democrat" government like the present dispensation, it would be politicised. Y'all playin politics with lives of Nigerian citizens.

Damn, we derailed much. Let's stop the argument.

people who prefer to feed herbivorous animals before feeding humans are meant to be poor because they haven't fed themselves first.. Herbivorous animals and lack of rivers cause desertification which leads to poor soil and inability to farm and inability to farm leads to agriculture poverty which leads to famine and starvation especially when they don't feed the animals in a ranch or confined place...

States above river Niger and river benue have been affected by desertification and they can't farm... states like benue and Jos sell their foodstuffs to other northern states and not the nation..

I study reality and not his-story...

the Insurgency is a result of govt showing support to the insur:gents to spite southern Nigerians...
