Hehehehe!

There was alot of resistance here at the mention of Joel Obi by my humble self and notable Mickael2 and distinguish Komekn.

Now, who takes the glory?

Don't forget we are still saying bring back Sone Aluko and Obafemi Martins.

Martz101:
my brother international football is different from club football, if you don't have deep lying playmaker, you make do with what you have.

I will love to visit history, In 2006 world cup, Italy won playing most of there games with del Rossi and gattuso, they are both destroyers... In 2010 Spain won playing with Alonso and bosquet both very similar and non of them is a destroyer, 2014 we all watch kros and khedira playing in the deep midfield role with Kramer coming in atimes.

Finally I notice we Nigerians love CHANGE alot even when not necessary, Onazi and Ndidi combo has only lost one match, why always referring back to it?

Kog45:
....meaning Onazi should sit in on the bench and with the absence of Mikel then prepare to see Onazi and Ndidi combo again even with Mikel i don't see Rohr dropping Onazi to the bench.

BascoVanVeli:
One of Onazi's best games as of late was against Cameroon and Ndidi was on the pitch then.

Martz101:
Not true, the right statement should be, The whole team ain't compatible without Mikel, the whole team flopped in that match.

if I may ask how many matches have you seen Ndidi partner Onazi without Mikel, you don't come to a conclusion like that.

Martz101:
Onazi will start, he missed the last 2 matches because of injury, his a sure started in the world cup if fit, Onazi will not only start but wear the captain hand band

really I dont understand how people come to a conclusion that Onazi and Ndidi aint contactable,Onazi,Ndidi and Mikel played in the midfield against Algeria and Cameroon at home and the midfield was wonderful

FT in Kano. Plateau United has been knocked out. Respectable result though.

Nigeria's heartbreak continues

EEGA:
We can manage Ndidi-Ogu combo without Mikel, but we can't manage Ndidi-Onazi combo without Mikel because we will end up losing.Against Senegal we drew with Ogu-Ndidi(no Mikel), against South Africa we lost with Onazi-Ndidi(No Mikel).

Taking Mikel behind will cut off supply to the striking players. It is better he plays behind the strike force.

England squad for the upcoming friendly

England's No.1 spot still up for grabs ahead of World Cup - Gareth Southgate
BURTON, England -- England's No. 1 spot at the World Cup is still up for grabs, according to manager Gareth Southgate.
Southgate has called up four goalkeepers for friendlies against Holland and Italy this month including Joe Hart and uncapped Burnley keeper Nick Pope.
Stoke's Jack Butland and Everton's Jordan Pickford have also been selected.
Hart was England's first-choice throughout the qualifying campaign but has started just one Premier League game since November for West Ham.
"Clearly the No. 1 jersey is up for grabs," Southgate told a news conference on Thursday.
"Joe has had a difficult period for his club. He had to miss game at City -- David [Moyes] did a good job in making West Ham more solid and Joe found himself out of the side.
"He's got 74 caps and he's important. We don't know how the next eight to 10 weeks will pan out."
Chelsea centre-back Gary Cahill, a recent England captain, is a high-profile omission with Southgate choosing instead to hand first call-ups to James Tarkowski from Burnley and Alfie Mawson from Swansea.
Cahill has lost his place at Chelsea and was an unused substitute for the 3-0 defeat to Barcelona in the Champions League on Wednesday.
"I was really pleased with how we defended in November", Southgate added. "I wanted to look at Tarkowski and Mawson, not just for now but the future.
"Then there are people like [Eric] Dier who I'd like to see in a back three. It was a very difficult call, he's a player I respect and has played a lot of qualifiers.
"I think there are players not in this squad who are not out of our minds."
Bournemouth midfielder Lewis Cook has also been called up for the first time, while Arsenal duo Danny Welbeck and Jack Wilshere return to the squad.
But there is no place for Brighton striker Glenn Murray, despite the striker scoring five goals in his last six Premier League games.
Manchester United defender Chris Smalling, and Michael Keane of Everton are also notable omissions.
Full England squad
Goalkeepers: Jack Butland (Stoke City), Joe Hart (West Ham), Jordan Pickford (Everton), Nick Pope (Burnley)
Defenders: Ryan Bertrand (Southampton), Joe Gomez (Liverpool), Harry Maguire (Leicester), Alfie Mawson (Swansea), Danny Rose, Kieran Trippier (Tottenham Hotspur), John Stones, Kyle Walker (Manchester City), James Tarkowski (Burnley), Ashley Young (Manchester United)
Midfielders: Dele Alli, Eric Dier (Tottenham Hotspur), Lewis Cook (Bournemouth), Jordan Henderson, Adam Lallana, Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain (Liverpool), Jesse Lingard (Manchester United), Jake Livermore (West Brom), Raheem Sterling (Manchester City), Jack Wilshere (Arsenal)
Forwards: Marcus Rashford (Manchester United), Jamie Vardy (Leicester City), Danny Welbeck (Arsenal)

andrew444:
You see,you guys are judging player with one season,so now firminho is now a world class player right ? I weep by the way most Nigerians analyze football just because it's their favorite club....smh for Epl fan boys

Mickael2:
Firmino is an average striker? Christ

andrew444:
Bros I don't really know the arguement,yes Gabriel Jesus and mbappe is better than iheanacho,but benching firminho is no big deal,is it because he plays for Liverpool?firminho is an average striker okay,Brazil strikers are average,so please exclude that,the way you mention firminho make it seems he is a Luis Suarez,firminho is not even in the same class as benzema,Brazil has no good striker that's why Jesus will always start

I guess I'm about to enjoy this discussion.... lol



did you take note that all the comparison you did was just about scoring, scoring, and just scoring

So cos Mbappe scored and Ndidi didn't, then that was what made him better than Ndidi. Guy like seriously....



Won't you ask yourself some questions before you wrongly jump into the that ship next time?


So cos the media didn't make his performance known to the while world, then he isn't worthy of a mention? Say otherwise cos that's what you're Tryna infer.


Keep hoping on Mbappe you hear...


Wetin concern me with Nacho. You brought in Mbappe to this issue, but I won't grant you the chance to add Nacho just to make two points.



They don't play the same position pls.



Goan get a 90mins clip of that match and come back and tell me what you saw.


Final Question... since his move to PSG, why hasn't he replicated the form he had for Monaco?


I don't ask cos I want to downgrade. I ask cos I need a different perspective from the one I hold.



The stint Ndidi currently have started from that season. Kante currently, the one he replaced is a shadow of his Leicester self.


A Dmf Vs A forward.... Comparing an Apple to A citrus fruit in taste and look..... interesting.


Anything to just make our own look Asif they are all into circus performances..
