There are no natural CBs on the bench but Stanley Amuzie can play CB.

krattoss:
MIKEL IS THE RIGHTFUL CAPTAIN BUT DOES HAVE WHAT IT TAKES TO LEAD A TEAM?

lexyman:
I m not too conversant with azuibuike's ability in the role , I hope he's mobile like Onazi , any time I see a Onazi play I remember Micheal Essien of Ghana . . But d attacking style we will play tomorrow will really help our defense line .

lexyman:
Nice formation .i think I will go with this line up .i will keep simon if possible through out 90mins cos of his ability to score set pieces .

laperson:
The game is 7pm Brazilian time (11pm Nigerian time). Don't know if any station will show the match.

Oloro ni igor talo ni ke waja. Igor is poison who compelled you to come and fight. That was what the program song was changed to. There was a flamboyant guy we bastardized his name to micho a, then the 3 brothers.
Poverty is bad, our house didn't even have light let alone TV. Things had taken a very bad turn. I remember listening to the Daman miracle on radio, that was some crazy match. Before you finish jubilating, another goal is in.

I didn't start fully watching matches again until the 94 nations cup, there were more pressing daily survival matters to attend to.

Napoleon55:
I believe 4-3-3 is the best formation for this game against Egypt,in order to accommodate most of the inform stars. Onazi,Mikel,Iwobi on the midfield while Ighalo lead the attack with Musa and any of the two Moses', we unleash one moses on each half.
Iheanacho should come in as a super sub in the second half.
The 4 most inform defenders should make up the back 4.
The formation can be switched from 4-3-3 to 4-4-2.

Likely line up.

1-IKEME
2-CHUBZOR OKONKWOR
3-UWA
4-ONAZI
5-EFE
6-OBOBONA
7-MUSA
8-IWOBI
9-IGHALO
10-MIKEL
11-MOSES

Subs-
IHEANACHO
MOSES

krattoss:
the Kaduna turf is looking good unlike before.

tbaba1234:
Carl Ikeme (GK)
Shehu Abdullahi
Elderson Echiejile
Godfrey Obaboana
Efe Ambrose
Azubuike Okechukwu
Mikel Obi
Ahmed Musa
Moses Simon
Victor Moses
Odion Ighalo

Likely side, According to owngoalnigeria.com

Good side. We definitely need more center back options, if Efe or Oboabana get hurt, what happens?

First, we do not know how old he was when he finished secondary school. Unless you know, we can not ascertain the gap of his age.

See my earlier post.

When I say Age cheat, I mean he was not like 27 years claiming 17.

I knew a player of 36 years, claiming 18.

TheGoodJoe:


I am 1998 set. I finished at 16 years old because my birthday is November. So he is within 35-36. Which is not far from my assumption.

That does not mean he could not finish at sixteen.

When Martins burst into the scene at Inter Milan (I did not hear of him when he was at Reggianna), people called him father. Meaning he was in his late twenties to thirty.

It was not so. When I met that guy, I knew Martins was above the age he claims but it was not wide as people believed.

TheGoodJoe:


I am not sure. However, I see Iheanacho being a regular player as a Cityzen two years from now. I see Iwobi a regular at Arsenal two years from now. That is, if they do not sell him.

U-23 VS BRAZIL: AWONIYI,OSIMHEN,AJAYI,SOLOMON IN CONTENTION TO START
[/size]
https://i0.wp.com/owngoalnigeria.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/03/image-148.jpg?resize=300%2C300
The quartet of Taiwo Awoniyi,Victor Osimhen,Junior Ajayi and Theophilus Solomon are presently in a battle for a starting spot in Nigeria’s U-23 attack for the friendly game against Brazil.


The duo of Victor Osimhen and Taiwo Awoniyi were paired as strikers in one of the teams during yesterday training game while Junior Ajayi and Theophilus Solomon attacked for the other team.

Although it ended 0-0 the quartet put in a performance that showed their willingness to battle for a shirt in the game against Brazil.


While Osimhen and Taiwo remain the favourites to start the duo of Ajayi and Solomon showed a lot to suggest they might get the nod ahead of the earlier mentioned duo.


Ajayi and Solomon combined nicely on several occasion and were more mobile in making runs behind the defence but the combo of Awoniyi and Osimhen were more reliant on balls from the flanks or through the middle.

Their form should be a pleasant worry for the coach when he names his squad for the Thursday game.

If you ask me my guess of Martins age, I will say 34. I can not put him above that because that is close my age, I am 35 and I believe I was older than the Martins friend I met in 2002-2003.

TheGoodJoe:

You made the same mistake of misunderstanding my statement. I said I do not see many, not many. I still expect more. I do not see a lot of them better than him.

Just as I did not see a lot being better than Fabregas, Messi, Mikel.

Some will come out. Not many.

Many fantastic players will come out but few will be better than Iheanacho.

That is why first I say for now he gets what he needs to develop. When he develops, he seeks playing time.

Yes. Iheanacho will get regular playing time, two years for now. His development is on point and he is already one of the best finishers in the game when you take his goals to playing time ratio.

The reason Man City spent so much on the academy is to have a kind of Barcelona set up where a lot of the squad is gotten from La Masia Academy. Iheanacho is a big part of the project. He has to play to begin the success of the project.

I do not see much young players close to Nacho's ability in the future for us to see someone in the market ahead of Nacho.

There is also an improved Contract waiting for Iheanacho as soon as he sorts out who represents him.

Bros, i hail ooo! You don even go international since 85. I no love ball reach that level na. In fact, I don't like anything foreign as at then and like you said, na new maskara, Argentina, Appollo na em i like pass. I believe you will decipher what i mean.

However, watching football at the stadium was just for sight seeing with..... .

Maroc 88, i no go lie, i no watch am. Maybe i did but i can't remember. I be fair wheather fan.

TheGoodJoe:


I feel Shearer was better but I think has more to do with preference of Shearer's style and his longevity on the big stage.

Yekini was up there with the best hitmen in the game. He was a top talent.

I do not think Martins was an age cheat . I met a friend of his in Calabar. The boy read Biochemistry and he was a good player. He was about the same age Martins claimed. Martins longevity tells that he was really young when he burst into the scene.

Martins remains the most unfairly treated Nigerian striker in the Super Eagles. He was top quality but never got a run to prove himself in the National team.

amagunnerfan:
Na, from your list, only Alaba is worth it. Ross have been inconsistent, we can't say we have really missed much yet. Ali is in his first season. Wait till he shows what he is showing now again next season before we conclude.

If Kelechi was English, I am sure he would be playing more games and getting more goals and assists.

Compare Kelechi's game time and stats against that of Alli and Ross and you will see the wide difference.

amagunnerfan:
When I remember Finidi, I always say "who is Figo, who is Beckham's father" I will argue it from now till tomorrow, Finidi was better than both players ( on the wing) but off course, he is African, that's his crime for not been recognised as the aforementioned duo.

tbaba1234:
Nigerian Sports Journalist @patomiliki seems to suggest that Solanke is willing to play for Nigeria if given a call-up.

@TheOddSolace @D_WarEagle @thenff Dude likes Naija and I can tell you from Good authority that the boy is interested to play for SE.

@TheOddSolace @D_WarEagle We need to approach him professionally

What better chance to approach him when he is not yet on England's radar?

forgiveness:
Bros, i no be Old generation ooo! but i started watching ball at the National stadium in 1984. The first match was the FA Cup finals between Abiola and Leventis United. In the same year, i watched Ranges vs Leventis United. Leventis United won the matches on both occassions.

And the thing i could remember in those days is the popular song " o'n ke bi ologbo iwayawu, meow meow Meow!` But i no bi Old generation. Sometimes i love watching Football but sometimes i loose interest. If i tell you i stopped watching football from 2001- 2006, you would not believe it. In fact, i didn't watch a single match in the 2006 world Cup.

Don't misunderstand me ooooo. I get informations from... i no go tell you now.

The Super Eagles preparations ahead of the
first leg of the all-important 2017 African
Cup of Nations qualifier against Egypt have
suffered a huge set-back as Arsenal
youngster Alex Iwobi took no part in the
Super Eagles’ training today March 22 in
Abuja, over a minor injury paving way for
England’s bid to secure the youngster.A top official close to the team disclosed
exclusively to Naij.com Sports in Abuja that
the player vomited earlier in the day,
possibly as a result of the food he ate and
was advised to stay back at the hotel.
The father of the youngster was also
present at the training session which was
open to the media and fans.
However, Iwobi have joined the party as
they proceed to Kaduna for final
preparations of the encounter billed to
hold at the Ahmadu Bello Stadium on
Friday March 25 at 4pm.
It would be recalled that the Arsenal
prodigy was the first overseas-based player
to arrive in the Super Eagles’ camp in
Abuja, and was joined by his
colleagues Umar Aminu and Godfrey
Oboabona, as well as John Mikel Obi, Odion
Ighalo and Aaron Samuel.
