let's be factual. You're right. But did you notice there was barely any green shirt available to do something tangible when attacking? Aina crossed to one player in box 18. I know he was doing his part but if bodies aren't where they should be, na horror. And that's what happened tonight.

In that situation, I expected chukwueze Ihenacho aribo and Simon to all start running towards box so that at least if they defend it then S.E players can recover the ball and shoot..

That's how s.e scored against Egypt.

You’re a bastaard ewu. What did your boyfriend iheanacho do today? He shouldn’t be on the first team ahead of any midfielders. A team need a dm, CM and AM to function properly and you shouldn’t compromise your midfield or defense

That's what I've been saying.

Where's semid4lyfe or any mod..

See abuses ...

Thunder fire you. Ighalo would had done much better today but the main problem was the midfield. We need 3 midfielders on the pitch

Thunder is the roar from lightning Sparks. Lightning is the one that can fire people not thunder..

Lightning fire you � � more. The main problem was the wingers..

midfield was too thin unless you expected Bonke to play DM, CM and AM at the same time

Sorry, I don't discuss with disrespectful people like you.

I'm disrespectful to people who are disrespectful to me..

Ighalo should start next game

Heaven and hell forbid..

Osimhen and Sadiq should start.. Ihenacho doesn't press and an old Ighalo will definitely never press.

When I said s.e needs it's fast players people were saying their careers are just starting that it's too early to call them up.

daveP:
The wing is easily locked up. Modern approach has made such a style so so outdated. Nowadays, if the fullbacks aren't getting opened space by midfield play to run in, it's nothing valuable to the team. We missed Ndidi definitely. I also noticed the lockdowns once the wingers received a pass. They just can't move. Nobody is opening up any space, so they pass right back to the defenders. How is AE seeing this repeatedly and not exasperated??

One of the things wrong with Eguavoen wingers is his over reliance on Simon and chukwueze..

They will receive pass with clear space ahead of them and instead of them to run and pass or cross into the box or run and cut in then pass or shoot they will wait for the defender to catch up then try to dribble. Simon was very guilty of doing this in tonights match.

Sportilitica:
Chukwueze has really regressed. Is he injured or has lost confidence?

That's how he plays for Nigeria.. he is playing safe so that he doesn't get injured so that he can return to his villar:eal duties..

He hasn't regressed per se..

mostob:
Which of your Moses and Simon?

Stop trying to deflect...

Defend your Simon and chukwueze ..

Icon4s:
Rather, it is only a foolish coach that will start all of Dennis, Lookman, Onyeka and Bonke

Icon4s, mostob and the people that liked this comment should come defend this comment.

Pgltm:
This team badly needs a creative midfielder, that can hold the ball, dazzle and make passes

S.E main problem is players trying to dazzle instead of playing simple football.. S.E needs players who don't hold onto the ball for long.

Shukusheka:
Set piece from both teams have been terrible. Africans generally are just terribly inept at playing dead balls.

Nwakwali is good at corners and crossing freekicks into the box.. okocha was very good at dead balls.

Omanambala:
Lol...those are your regulars naa

They are Eguavoen regulars not mine...

They will never start or even get call up letter if I was the coach.

forgiveness:
Iheancho should be removed first.

Ihenacho and Chukwueze are letting Aina do all the work on that wing..

Danielnino00:
Iheanacho should be yanked off at half time please... He has had absolutely no impact on the game.. He's made the midfield lean...

Aribo , Ihenacho , Chuks and Simon must be removed and must not start the 2nd leg..

Mostob and icon4s come and see the nonsense your Simon and chukwueze are playing...

Oasis001:
We need Etebo for Iheanacho in the 2nd half. Baba don over ghost this Half.

Onyeka for Ihenacho.
Dennis for Simon.

Simon and chukwueze are making are wing weak that's one of the reasons I wanted Dennis and lookman to start but people on NL were saying rubbish..

Sanusi is doing Simon's work ..
Aina is doing chukwueze's work.
Which is leaving space in midfield and defense.

Simon should be removed at HT.. he is losing the ball too much.

He had a chance to run and cross but he waited for the defender to come back and when Simon tried to dribble he ended up dribbling himself and forgetting the ball then the defender easily recovered the ball.

Icon4s:

Only a person that's very ignorant of football will make such a comment.

mostob:
So because Klopp threw in Jota and Diaz, we should throw in Lookman and Dennis too?
Diaz and Jota were threw in immediately because the team structure of the Liverpool team was in place.
Could the same be said of the super eagles? Ndidi is missing, we don't even know our starting CBs and we're still testing formations.
And na people like you will berate them if they didn't meet your expectations...you will even go as far as going against their future invitation.
The bolded ws not necessary but I really hope you're OK

In football the formation is the structure, Dennis and lookman are wingers and can play those wings as effective as Simon and chukwueze.

Ndidi has been replaced by other effective DMs like Bonke and Onyeka.

They already meet my expectations unless they play extremely bad.

The bolded was necessary because Eguavoen doesn't seem to know the forwards that make his formation click and the players who make his team look lackluster. That's why Onazi was on standby and not tijani or Onyedika.

andrewbaba44:
Calm down about yira sor ,he is new in the game okay ,he started impressing recently and there are even better players in his Position

The newer the better not when he becomes complacent and has lost hunger for the game.

mostob:
Dennis and Lookman can not start....you don't just throw in players like that...
And Chuks will always start...

Klopp threw in Jota and Diaz like that... Dennis , Lookman and Onyeka must start...

S.E has to start pressuring and pressing Ghana's defense from the start of the 1st half. I don't want to see a "low block" or defensive game from the S.E and I don't want to see the 1st half performance they played against Tunisia ever again..


It's because of people with your type of mentality players like Dessers, Yira sor, tijani, Nwakwame, Akpoguma e.t.c are been called up..

Icon4s:
Starting Innocent Bonke and Frank Onyeka as DM and CM in such a crucial away game is too risky. I don't think they have ever played together in any competitive game.
Emmanuel Dennis and Ademola Lookman will likely start from the bench.
Simon and Chukwueze are likely to be the starting wingers.

It will be very foolish of the coaches to bench Dennis , lookman, Bonke and onyeka.. they must all start.

Chukwueze must be benched.. Simon/Dennis/Amoo/Ejuke can play chukwueze's wing.. while lookman/dennis/aribo starts in Simon's wing.

Then ihenacho/Awoniyi/Sadiq as AM.. Aribo as AM hasn't been very effective while in Rangers I see him playing as a winger and he plays well in LW..

Bonke and Onyeka or at worse because I know Eguavoen likes a thin midfield then just Onyeka as DM, it's should be an abomination to bench an EPL regular like Onyeka.

4-2-3-1 is good for the type of players S.E has.

3-6-1 disguised as 5-4-1 is also good for the S.E..

safarigirl:
I do not entertain people who are quick to throw in "You're a woman" when they want to address something

It shows a gross lack of logical reasoning or any form of intelligent reasoning at all.

The fact that I did not even mention anything about who scored first or last, but only mentioned conceding, yet, you came with this jargons, is telling of how much you lack in reasoning capabilities.

The women in your life should teach you more on how to not begin a sentence by discrediting people on the altar of gender. It does not make you sound intelligent at all

A woman like Lianne Sande:rson and 99% of women footballers and retired women footballers will never ever say they expect S.E to concede in both legs because they set high standards, your standards are too low for a team like the S.E..

Unless you work for NFF and you're trying to lower expectations and standards that Nigerians expect from the S.E..


Nigeria is an African football powerhouse and is presently stronger than Ghana so based on their current strengths Ghana scoring in both legs means S.E has serious coaching defiencies..

Elock1:
Thank you very much... Uzoho might not be an Enyeama but he is very decent and has played in the big stage (world cup) as well

Naija just Bleep up when dem replace uzoho with okoye as first choice (just like that)

That Uzoho guy hasnt made any goal keeper error that I know of for the super eagles and he exudes confidence but Nigeria in their infinite wisdom decided to bench him 4 an inexperienced, untested and young Okoye

Who does that?

Sportilitica:
I hope we do not bash Uzoho if he makes his own mistakes. We jump ship too easily in my opinion. I believe both keepers are at the same level honestly. Nothing special about them.(okoye, Uzoho). A look at the teams that made it to the last 4 of the Afcon would reveal how good the keepers of at least 3 teams were. A strong team is built around a solid keeper. We should be searching for more keepers not trying to make excuses for each of them. We shall prevail

Uzoho is not match fit.. so he might be rusty..

safarigirl:
Anyway, I expect Ghana to score at least two goals against us in both legs

But unlike some people here, I always expect our goalkeepers to concede, my confidence is in our forwards to score more than we concede.

That is how we win matches.

From this comment you're a woman who is not into football but you just come here to while away time..
so you don't understand that conceding a goal is a morale destroyer especially if you concede first and conceding 2 goals first is a moral fatality ..

This is why I said you should learn to be specific when you talk unless you're below 17 years old.. if S.E is leading 3 - 0 and Ghana scores it won't have any major effect on their moral.

If Ghana scores first then all they have to do is park the boss for the remainder of the 2 legs.

That was Aus:tin Eji:de a

I have corrected myself.. now unquote me or put hyphen on Akp:eyi's name.. and same goes for safarigirl..

safarigirl:
Intentionally throw the ball ke?

Akpeyi's crime is corner taken quickly. That is his main crime. This your own, I no know where e from come. Una dey really hold things over people's heads.


And I will compare whoever I want to compare with whoever, no be you go dictate who I go use as comparison.

You lot need to give it a rest. Person no dey una still dey insult am.

Very disturbing behaviour

It was Austin E:jide not Akp:eyi..

Saka, Rashford and Sancho lost penalties to deny England their first Euros in decades

Today, how many English fans still wave that loss over their heads? How many of them said Southgate should not call up Saka, or should not start him because of that loss?

Na so normal people dey criticise players. Insult them those first few days, and start on a fresh slate.

But Nigerians? Free kick wey Akpeyi no catch since 2019, dem no gree release the guy blokos.

Una dey see say una no dey alright for this country?

Saka was one of their best players in the Euros and contributed a lot to them been in the final..

don't compare Maduka to Saka ever again especially a GK and a Winger..

Zouma still gets booed just because he spanked a Cat.. they haven't created a fresh slate for Zouma.. so stop deceiving yourself..


Europ:ean fans are worse than Africans

S.E needs at least 3 midfielders on the pitch. Bonke as DM, onyeka to play as CM and Aribo/Awoniyi/Sadiq/Ihenacho to play as AM.

Dennis starts ahead of chukwueze or Dennis starts ahead of Simon then move Simon to Chukwueze's wing and let Simon start ahead of chukwueze.

Chukwueze wing was quiet in the AFCON, he and Ihenacho didn't track back to help the midfield and defense during AFCON and against Juventus. Chukwueze can come on in 2nd half..

Aina should release the ball early and reduce his overlapping especially if Chukwueze starts.

daveP:
Imagining Aribo with a masterclass at Kumasi.

I hope we aren't going there to sit back and wait for counter Sha. This is the worst Ghana team in a decade or two. I expect some individual brilliance from Partey tho. But their Keeper will definitely not be ready for Osimhen.

What if Osimhen gets injured either before the game or during the game.

What if Osimhen gets a red card.

What if any S.E player gets a red card then what will Eguavoen do

S.E and Eguavoen has to prepare and calm the players down because Ghana is going to try to get at least one of our players sent off..
