Mujtahida: That's why I usually don't like it when Onuachu scores or starts scoring.
He will be invited and he will not score. Even though I must acknowledge the fact that he has not had many opportunities with him playing many minutes on the pitch. But that's besides the point. Our playing style doesn't seem to suit him.
Let's go with Osimhen and Lookman Arokodare and Akor. If he’s going for 4 strikers Den it shld be osimhen ,akor, onauchu and gift orban (if he has been sorted out with his switching) Moffi and dessers are out injured |

joxxy01: I still can't get over it; I mean, how did we even get this lucky to be in the playoffs.
Just rewatched the game now and just like Hugo broose earlier in the week stated, our players didn't even know that they needed to score 4 goals to qualify.
After Onyeka scored the 4th, he celebrated as though the goal was just an icing on the cake not knowing that that one goal is as important as Osimehn's three and boom will sneaked into the 4th place pushing out another team whose only crime was to get 6 points from the weakest team.
This is a clear sign that God really wants us to be at the world cup. Sincerely it’s miraculous and I expect d boys to take the second chance seriously |

Emmanuel Chukwu came off the bench on 77mins as Wolfs went a man down.
Tochukwu Nnadi, DM continues his consistent showing in Belgium this season as his side Zulte Waregem are currently up against Cercle Brugge for a chance to move 4th in Belgium if they win. Game at 1-1 now The last guy nnadi is a guy I believe can give d midfield something different |

He was just paraded by FC Lolo against Pirates and he committed numerous fouls that don't just deserve a red but a life ban, yet he was left to walk freely by these weirdos that masquerade as African referees. lol dt guy acted like portable 🤣🤣🤣 |

charlesemeka85: Onyedika don see common Crystal Palace sign for ? 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
All we hear always about him is just rumour
During Peseiro’s time he preferred Onyeka and now Chelle prefers Ndidi which implies that something we haven’t noticed yet as mere fans is missing in Onyedika’s game This is my exact argument about this onyedika guy we fans are not cin …no worry ,dem go soon use am …2 foreign coaches can’t be wrong na ,same way we taught Bruno was better Dan zaidu ..if onyedika is dt good Dan ndidi ,den he shldnt be chopping bench under 2diff foreign coaches who has worked closer with these two players In trainings. |

Meliforme: He has always been a tactician. He interprets the coach's ideas very well, and reads his opponents well.
We currently do not have direct replacements, but players with complementary roles. Even though I criticised ndidi a lot on this page but to be fair on him,he has had some of his best games in eagles under Eric chelle |

Considering the circumstances, we really need to cut Chelle some slack. From the moment he was appointed, almost every match he’s handled has felt like a “final.” He hasn’t had the luxury of experimenting with his squad, except during the Unity Cup and the friendly games in Russia 🇷🇺. Surely, you wouldn’t expect him to test new players in must-win matches like those against Rwanda 🇷🇼 and Zimbabwe 🇿🇼, or even in crucial World Cup qualifiers. From his recent interview, it’s clear that the emergence of Fredricks was purely circumstantial the originally invited players were unavailable for the Unity Cup, so Fredricks was drafted in because he was already with the team in Brentford.The same goes for Olakunle, who was also in Russia 🇷🇺 when some players withdrew from the friendlies. Looking ahead, with two more important World Cup qualifying games coming up, it might not be wise to introduce too many new faces into a team still trying to grasp his playing philosophy especially when even players who’ve been with him for over ten months are just beginning to adapt. Personally, I think the best time for him to bring in new talents would be either just before AFCON or after the March playoff fixtures. |

Mujtahida: Forget it. In the interview, Chelle spoke effusively that Ndidi understands the 4-4-2 formation.
The others can only fight. Ndidi got it. I don’t know y ppu just like to turn a blind eye to something so obvious….peeps here will be putting out first eleven wout ndidi I Dey always tell dem ,any line up wout ndidi na wash ,u heard d part where chelle said he took his time to explain via video sessions to ndidi aw he wants him to play the role and he’s now getting it ..he also used dt analogy to quash fans hope of cin deir players favourite for now ,saying it would be hard drafting new players to the team except for one or two |

Subzerooo: There is a reason they are able to convince fb players to leave European nations to play for them and that's because they have built a structure and an enabling environment, if e sure for you go and convince common Adarabioyo  I think dis goes beyond infrastructure and facilities to lure dem cos what Dey c in foreign countries where Dey can represent is better or almost d same facilities in Morocco 🇲🇦 or Senegal 🇸🇳 I want to believe deir major success of convincing foreign born players is more of patriotism Dan infrastructure as u suggested cos an average Nigerian 🇳🇬 is not even willing to associate themselves with Nigeria 🇳🇬 let alone of commiting demselves into anything.in everything we do we try to associate ourselves with anything foreign dishing our own values . But take a look at Morocco 🇲🇦 or Senegal 🇸🇳 foreign born players ..I believe they cherish deir values and culture hence finding it easy in convincing them to switch their allegiance. |

ChrisKels: Like someone rightly said, our defensive depth is so poor. Zaidu is an average left back but he is way better than Bruno. Bruno is very poor. I have seen Agụ play, I was not impressed. I wonder why our coach doesn't want to give Torunarigha a chance in that left back.
Another very poor defender we have is Osayi Samuel. I think our coach should try talking to Kayode of Brentford.
By the way, those of you who have been following Besiktas games, how good has been Uduokhai? He would not be a bad short-term back up to Bassey. Not impressed with Agu 😏😏😏..chriskels bia,ur takes dis days ehn ,wetin Dey sup ..? D agu I watched at unity cup was very impressive,miles better Dan Bruno |

Cocony: Many hurriedly forget that Victor Moses represented England in the 2007 FIFA U17 World cup before switching allegiance to Nigeria. They make it look like there is a "cast in marble" rule for switching allegiances. Ademola Lookman likewise featured for the English U20 team in the 2017 U20 World Cup before switching to Nigeria.
If NFF and Chelle consider him relevant to their plans they will go for him. The only thing dt can convince him Is a World Cup ticket …and with serious convincing cos it’s not even sure …na 50/50 |
