they don’t have goals in their attack but if they keep it compact they can have a good tournament

Kudus, Inaki, Ayew senior, and Partey can score goals. Even Salisu, Djiki and Amartey have the area prowess to score from corner kicks. They also have that guy from Club Brugge that scored against Porto. I think his name is Sowal.

The Black Stars of Ghana has the most complete team of any African nations at this World Cup.

Defenders: Salisu, Amartey, Djiku, Odio/Lamptey.

Midfielders: Samad (Lens), Partey (Arsenal) and Kudus (Ajax)/Kyere (Freiburg).

Strikers: Jordan/Bukari, Inaki, and Ayew/Sulaiman.

All the Black Stars need is Self Believe!!

The only world cup tournament the Super Eagles packed the box was 2002 (against Argentina and England) and we all know why! World Cup tournament is different from friendly match. It's quite unfortunate that we missed out on two world cup tournaments that we could have done very well (2006 and 2022).

Push Iwobi into the AM role. Play Onyeka and Ndidi pivot. Pair Bassey with Ekong. Sanusi on the left. Aina/Osayi on the right. Oshimen, Chukweze and Lookman in attack. We are good to go.

United States superb team! My son will proudly wear the jersey soonest!

I've not been following if you both have issues on here.
I just took his advise not further engage in this issue specifically.

I was the one that stopped the engagement, Mr man. You know what you doing and I see it. Keep the trophy.

Mujtahida:
You need to temper this your take with some healthy dose of realism. Our team is full of average players. One or two bright sparks but the bunch is average. Underperforming average players

I am talking in terms of the events that occurred during those competitions. If the qualities in our attack are average which team, then in Africa has better forward line. I believe my post is self explanatory. We have the tools in attack but the combinations to make it work are missing. Nevertheless we still have a team that could go toe to toe with any other team on the continent man for man, getting the combination right is the key.

Joebie:
Thanks for the advice my bro

I believe I didn't disrespect you in my post. How does supporting one's National team makes one an enemy? I was expecting better from you. Don't get in the mud with a pig!

Meliforme:
Some guys still believes that S.E is a bunch of average players.

Man for man only few teams in the world have the calibre of our attacking strength. We need to get our midfield combination right to help our attack. Our major problem is CB and goalkeeping.
Had it been we had solid goalkeepers we would have won the AFCON and qualify for the world cup. The goalkeepers cost us.

Ecuador just needs to take Sarr out of the game. Man mark him and it's over.

Senegal does not score a lot of goals from open play. They will find it difficult beating Ecuador!

Thanks!

AndSunGorilla:
Yes o, if we qualify

Africa has 10 or 9 slots for 2026 world cup. God keep us alive, I will cheer Super Eagles to victory!

Sarr ballerrrr!! Weldone Senegal. Africa is proud. However, the Super Eagles would have done better. 2026 we winning that cup!!

Joebie:
You did not qualify for the world cup and you are still playing friendlies like you have no ambition.

We beat Sierra Leone and destroyed Sao tome. Those are the games that matters for now. Rest.

Senegal attack these guys abegg!!

One two ODEeee!!

Children and capping.... Yet in 2017, Cameroon defeated Egypt to win the Nations cup.

Recall that you said that Nigeria remains the "only" team to defeat Egypt in 90mims. Cameroon did same in just "88mins" in a major final

Four ignorant people liked your post...

Netherlands should have blah blah blah. Same way Argentina would've won the world cup if Higuain scored 1on1 twice and Rodrigo Palacious scored his point blank miss. Nearly can't and will never kill a bird.

Football is not mathematics; if you like create 100 chances, if you fail to take them, that's your probs...

Nigeria is not playing at the world cup because they couldn't defeat Ghana which means they're simply not good enough but I should believe that thier players won't make the bench of the defending afcon champs who are also playing in the 2022 Mundial.

Nigeria is not the "only" team to defeat Egypt in 90mins Alalye...smfh!

I meant since 2021.

AndSunGorilla:
Let me wash my eyes, ok sir, where did I hype the dutch in my response sir. I think you are the one guilty of any type of hype sir . I put it to you respectfully that you said a team which didn't even make the QFs of the ANC is better than the eventual champions and a team which failed to qualify for the WC playing against a team arguably at its weakest point in decades as at that time. Regrettably, the SE is not at the WC and are therefore not even listed on the ballots or witness stand, so in conclusion, what's your favorite brand of coffee, just prepping for when you wake up so you can smell it.

You are the best team doesn't mean you will win the cup. Without Mane the Senegalese won't even qualify from their group at AFCON. We narrowly lost to Tunisia playing with 10 men for 40 minutes without Oshimen. Rest OG.

Joebie:
on paper.. on paper.. on paper..

paper no dey win matches.. play better ball

Nigeria as a team is rubbish

Okay! I know you are still pained cos we are not at the world cup. Chill man, it happens.

Onyi90:
Is beating Egypt in 90 minutes an achievement or representing Your country in the World stage/World Cup.
The Egypt you claim they defeated, are they in the world cup.
What are You Capping.

Egypt and Nigeria were just unlucky. Loosing by Penalty shoot out and away goal rule is not something to be angry about. Rest!

charlesemeka85:
Senegal will win this game. This Dutch team is too average to my liking

Imagine jensen starting for Holland?

Jensen and Blind.

AndSunGorilla:
Oga no need for all these comparison. SE is not playing, Senegal is the one playing. Enjoy the game sir and what does it profit the Side better than Senegal but are not at the WC and got flogged recently 4-0 (it is even debatable that the goal margin could even have been more had it been that Portugal didn't step off on the gas).

So, let's leave SE for now

Who told you our players stepped up to play? Portugal needed the match more and it's just a friendly match. This Dutch team is average. Has just one or two top class players. Hyping them cos of past glory. Rest the overhype, sir!

charlesemeka85:
not even osimhen. What they need most is an iwobi. They lack a ball playing midfielder in their starting eleven

If I were to be the coach after analyzing the first half I will throw in villareal’s Jackson and sub out one of those carpenters from the midfield

Jackson! Skilful and sleek but doesn't score much. You are absolutely correct.

Joebie:
Yea let's borrow them Osimhen, then O pari.
Naija nko?

If Holland has Oshimen Senegal would be 3 nil down at this moment. Respect the Super Eagles! Aside Koulibally and Mendy none of their starting 11 will make our first 11.

Nirvana101:
The bolded is just cap....

Yet they're playing in the world cup after knocking out Egypt. Do you think Nigeria can defeat Egypt and qualify for the world cup?

Senegal are defending Nations cup champions. If they meet Nigeria today, it's handicap two.

Edit: by now, Nigeria would've conceded at least 2 against this Netherlands side.

Nigeria still remains the only team that defeated Egypt in 90 minutes. Nigeria lost on away goal rule. Stop talking crap. Holland should have been 2 goals up if they are a good team. Which good attack Holland get?

Holland self no Sabi play anything.

This Senegal team is average. Tbh. It should have been 3 nil in favor of Holland. What's the hype about this Senegalese team. Their attackers won't even make our bench. Holland self no get correct players.

England has a solid attack but the defence...

This Senegal team is average without Mane. With Mane they struggle to score without him ...

This Senegal team is average without Mane. With Mane they struggle to score without him it will be very difficult.

Samueltemi337:
The group nor really hard


they can see off Serbia and Switzerland


Na football anything can happen

Which players Switzerland and Serbia have that Cameroon doesn't have? Cameroon will qualify from that group. Tunisia and Senegal groups too aren't that difficult. Ghana and Morocco group is a lit complicated.
