Hutchinson is another player we should be looking out for.
He is similar to Saka is many respects.

Yeah. I agree on this. Especially the calmness when attacking.

These guys plan for Chuks and Moses o. Two two per wing. Perfect situo for pk.

Nice lineup. Im sure the subs will definitely be way way different this time. Especially if we are comfortable by half time.

This Newcastle guys almost comot Dennis leg o

Nice one for Lacazette


This Omari kid with the Obagoal vibes

Get a Chain


And feed it with exact kinda dishes your neighbor gives it.

Chain it at different corners of your compound and repeat this process while being nice and mean on other time.


Ensure its looking at your before you drop the food.

Eba does the trip more than rice.


Does it have a satanic appetite for fish?

Get lots of that.

If it doesn't work, dash your neighbor the Ekuks and find a new loyal pet. Accept the Breakfast and move on. Na Ekuks Afterall.

Once upon a time with Obiora Nwankwo in the SE setup. What happened to him?

Some of these teams we are overhyping, hope we know its expected that they hype us too, if not more?

We say that vs Egypt, and their Coach attested to that. The same Egypt that most of us never thought we'd win o. Sotey its almost costing him that job.


Glad Eguavoen has said he won't underrate any team. But its Sudan o.


I'm even thinking like "lets outplay them in such a way that whatever Egypt plays vs them, it wouldn't equal how we bested the same teams.



I personally want Iwobi to start. But what do i know about the first approach?

DrKlever:
It's my birthday fam . I only wish for SE to spell Sudan today.

Happy Birthday to you Comrade. Cheers to a new age!!

Jodera:
Lol... I wished he went to Roma to meet that mourinho but arsenal declined that wish

He's Mou's kinda player. Arsenal can cash out and move on.

Comoros goalkeeper pulling heroics to keep it at 1-0

Denying that Moroccan from pulling a Van Persie to create History.

Fun Facts: Afcon 2021

Senegal 0-0 Guinea is the 3rd goalless scoreline of this Afcon. The other two games involved another top favorite in Algeria and ofcos two of our group oppositions, Sudan and Guinea Bissau.

Senegal has recorded only 5 shots on target in their 2 games so far at the Afcon. They have faced Zimbabwe and Guinea.

Nigeria recorded 5 Shots on target against an African powerhouse in Egypt.

Chriskels' second In-laws still top favorites? Time will tell.

Make SE win these two Afcon abeg. I saw what Morocco played and im disappointed. Senegal too looking like Wikki Tourists. Smh

I love this. It means there'll be chance even after the world cup to build even a team C due to the 2023 Afcon upcoming.

Games go reach like 50 from now till then.


Seeing talents available dey sweet belle. Then the thought of PES as Coach weak me.

Jodera:
Omo, Fred better pass this Xhaka abeg. With our midfield structure comprising of odegaard and partey, Fred will fare well esp with his insane pressing. But you see that Xhaka, na only God go judge am. This guy doesn't jeopardize Switzerland's chances consistently the way he does to us.
I swear I'm suspecting person send Xhaka to rundown arsenal. Cos this is happening more than twice every season and it's not coincidental. Haba!!

I think Mou or Ancelotti are the two managers that can refine his game under a few weeks of training. Especially Mou. He doesn't seem to listen to instructions about these tackles. Mou madness will make him to start to see things differently. Pa Carlo would drill the hell outta his legs till he begins to reason and play like one Asensio.

Now he's the Ramos of EPL, but no trophies to show for it!!

Spy360:
We definitely need an upgrade on Xhaka. I hope it's done soon enough. He must not start the second leg.

So deep a picture. One that will stay in my head for a while. Lol


Qatar WC Should reveal a good replacement. If it entails changing style to accommodate that new one, no p.

Akinbahm:
No mind those youth players jhawe, e be like the overhyping wey pundits dey give them dey shark their heads.

Imagine a player who hasn’t registered his name on football proving yanga to someone miles ahead of you no b juju b that?

The Glory days are past. They'll learn then grow. Hope its not late by then.

Akinbahm:

Super Eagles Camp Update: Pre-Sudan

Some reliable reports say this man has been in terrific form in Training since the first session. Tipped to get minutes on Saturday probably from the bench.

I see one pk from him already. E remain -udan

I don taya abeg. My mind priority no be Ighalo wey no even dey here sef. Na how to spell Sudan and do some Gareth Bale-ing after the win be the koko.

safarigirl:
Ighalo played against Egypt in 2016 during the AFCON qualifiers, Nigeria lost that game 1-0

Ighalo started that game.

He clearly did not get on the scoresheet going by the scoreline. So, did he really do better? No.

He was starved of any balls and had only one shot in that game. We weren't in control of that game either especially after Etebo's injury and the goal minutes later.


But he barely had any engagement with the ball and coach was telling him to stay in his position despite he wanting to shift deep and get more engagements.

komekn:
The only striker that is doing well this season in the squad is Awoniyi in the context of good quality.

Maybe I am not that informed please tell me the others .

And because I am highlighting the quality of Ighalo does not mean I am insulting Awoniyi.

I actually have met him and think very highly of him , very good professional really good young man.

You Acknowledge he's doing well and yet called him pretender? That's an insult abeg. Its evident for alllll to see that his form is why he is in this squad. At least Trust the judgement of both Eguavoen and Amunike for this.


You actually did insult him.


Its not in the context of good quality alone, he's banged in his goals as well. That's enough to be a starter.


Im equally highlighting Ighalo's quality to this team and I've not even insulted any of the remaining 27 members of the squad. Is that hard to do? Means you're using emotions here now.

As for if Ighalo would have done better than Awoniyi vs Egypt, nobody should hold an Absolute Conclusion about that. Its not 100 for any of the Yes or No. But i can confidently say that for that shot Awo had, Ighalo's would have been hotter and might have scored. Its all experience but that's not a reason to call Awo a pretender. That's foolish.


To me Awo had a pleasant game with his own sweat and contribution doing what we needed to win. Our wasted chances weren't even at his feet but others.

I can personally reach a conclusion that truly Ighalo has been disrespected here, but Komekn calling the current crop pretenders has turn this thing to UFC face-off. I can't take that either, even as an Ighalo fan.


I dunno maybe its a trend but we also didn't really trust Ighalo replacing Emenike that year.


Only thing i can say is Aboubakar scored the winner in 2017 final against Egypt, bullying their defence. That's something. I dunno how good their Midfield were compared to the one Ighalo played with at that last Afcon, but if its vs Egypt, towel dey floor.

Our current strikers are doing well this season at their clubs. They weren't called pretenders then. Nawa o

komekn:
On my opinion 100% a big YES

Easy there now. Make we no start tonight abeg.

safarigirl:
He didn't score any hattrick

Na trophy we dey find and tournament just dey start.

Like you, i can't wait for them to spell Sudan, unreplied.

daveP:
Big joke

With that Hattrick, Aboubakar is leading charts for both MVP and Golden boot now.

Nacho and Awoniyi, abeg no make easy for Abou pls. Catchup. Spell Sudan pls.

TheSuperNerd:
Doesn't exist. Can't happen. No matter how many times your mind sees this one.

Until you see him at Eto'o side holding Wooden Boot.

TheSuperNerd:
Exactly why I want a few changes to the lineup we put out on Tuesday for our game vs Sudan in order to further cement our tactical dominance and further expand our tactical approaches to opponents.

We have to understand that the team that started on Tuesday was to curtail Salah, turn up the high press on the Egyptian team and see us have possession of the ball enough to create our own chances.

Each opponent don't carry the same level of threats or tactics. We gotta be flexible while keeping the tactical discipline.


Egypt out-passed us in every facet of that game but we dominated in the others stats: Chance creation, crosses, carries into final third, shots overall, shots on target, big chances created and missed, corners won, saves drawn... etc.

The only other stats we fell short was in duels but this is understandable because we mega-pressed almost throughout that game.

Against Sudan, I want to see Control, Smooth build up plays (not rushed like against Egypt), top pressing, mad possession, incredible amount of chances creation and conversion (Goals), and more. We can do it. And it's bloody Sudan... I mean, come on, if we don't stat pad against these guys who got outplayed by Guinea Bissau then what the hell are we doing at this Afcon? Lol

Two Pks

Several 25yards freekicks

Control and Possession

The least expectations vs Sudan.
And Sudan must not score. Egypt didn't, so no way for Sudan too.


Someone should download some clips of Keshi's postmatch interviews and allow Coachito study how he answered questions abeg. Its needful.


Another 3 points so Team B can do whatever they want against Bissau on last Match.

TheSuperNerd:
It does. In your head right now. You know, before physical manifestation, there is first a mental picture. A mental manifestation of that thing.

So yes, it does. Only if you start the company right now.

You wan turn prophet ontop me fa?

Okay, will mbappe win cameroun's Golden boot in this tournament?
