you are right

Rockyrascal:
a handful of football analysts/writers come to this group daily to feed on the discussions that usually go on here about the SE. Most of them are active on football Twitter.

another dream.. they played us very tight.. lots of zonal marking .. we had very tight spaces to operate

JohnBullMySon:
Yeah, I meant 1- nil in our favour.

I saw this but I didn't want to say, because it went against my previous prediction of two wins for us.
I am still hoping the previous comes to pass.
We have a big advantage playing the second leg at home.

modified

Let me clarify, it might also have been a 1-0 for us in the first leg. But the second leg was definitely 2-0 in favor of Nigeria

JohnBullMySon:
I don't think Ghana will score more than a goal in the two legs.

If I should predict, the game will end 1-nil or 1 all in Kumasi and 2 nil in Nigeria.

u sef know say u like Sadiq since Tunisia

komekn:
I agree with you with my eyes closed and my mind asleep in a bad dream

ok no wahala. na safari

komekn:
I did not bring the Tega matter into this discourse.

All I said was they are two different types of player. With very different attributes that it's a matter of preference and each particular teams DNA.

We should come away from Ghana very comfortable.. In another 90 minutes we will complete the job. We must be very tactical in our approach.

Without any sentiments, If I had a team today I will rather have Osimhen, because Osimhen still has a high ceiling. And even his level at the moment he is a scary forward. Goals count don't tell the whole story.

safarigirl:
There is one otimkpu on Twitter trying to force the idea that Tammy is better than Victor

We say bring numbers, the otimkpu said Tammy had scored 21 goals and Victor has only scored 15


Based on their numbers in Europe, we have Osimhen on 15/28 and Tammy on 21/39

There is no argument that puts Tammy as better than Osimhen

yes na.. why Komekn dey bring Tammy matter?
it's not like we did not try to cap him

forgiveness:
I know you are just whinnying.

Even Sadiq is better than Tammy

komekn:
Do you recall when you said that Tega Abraham is just a championship level player and he will not go beyond that essentially.

He was the highest goal scorer in Chelsea team 2019/20 and he is essentially been a top Goal scorer everywhere he has been for the past 6 seasons.

And today he scored two goals bringing his goal tally in his first season in Seria A to 15 goals and counting.

Victor and Tammy are two different types of forward players. One plays with a Fiery Rage and aggressive relentless determination I haven't seen in any player currently.

And the other with a finesse ,balance and technical astuteness with football intelligence that seems unbecoming for someone so tall.

Who is better it's a question of either bias or preference.

leave Komekn.. let him help us scrape the best part of the rice pot.. we are waiting

charlesemeka85:
bonke hv been ever present for lorient since they signed him

I am expecting Thomas Partey to be very physical. He has shown us that side when we took on Athletico Madrid in that friendly. I am happy to welcome physical DMs like Bonke. We should match them well with every antics they may play.

daveP:
Imagining Aribo with a masterclass at Kumasi.

I hope we aren't going there to sit back and wait for counter Sha. This is the worst Ghana team in a decade or two. I expect some individual brilliance from Partey tho. But their Keeper will definitely not be ready for Osimhen.

Our opponents dey call up players here and there from farmers leagues and we are here criticising players that play in Ligue 1.
So if we do not have player in the top tier leagues we will just stay home and allow Ghana to walk over us?

na komekn I dey ask oh.
At least since you have been complaining here you have been unable to name 10 players so that we can all join hands with you and push for call up.. at least OGN writers come here to feed on our discussions.

Rockyrascal:
Innocent bonke as been called up to replace the injured Wilfred ndidi

maybe Tunisia, but you could as well have shown evidences of my "predictions"
I am not a prophet. My position is based on my conviction. It's perfectly okay to disagree.. One thing you can be sure is that I will not be in the pitch for either side on both occasions.

Meliforme:
Easy Sir.

You predicted that Nigeria will fall to Egypt, we saw the converse.
You predicted that Nigeria will rout Tunisia. we were beaten.

I want us to defeat Ghana, but you coming out to prophesy our win will not make me doubt our triumph. Maybe your prophesy will work this time.

One thing I can tell ya all is Nigeria is going to the World Cup and Ghana is not. Bookmark this

So long shot is now Okoye’s weakness. Someone should tell me any goals he has conceded like that besides that of Tunisia.

codemaniacs:
chidi1 is right..

But you guys are narrowing it to only partey.

If any Ghanaian player takes a long shot Okoye may not catch or save the shot. The only good thing is Okoye is match fit..

The S.E players must mark and overcrowd any Ghanaian player with the ball in the S.E side of the field with at least 2 players.

Because if they ball watch like they did against Tunisia then S.E will be in trouble and giving Okoye to much work to do.

We have another candidate for gaffe of the year. Who dey take note? I just dey cruise o, no I’ll feelings. This thread na fun I swear. I’m loving this camaraderie (comradeship)

Is it too late to call up Bonke and Yusuf?
What we feared about our midfield when the list was released happened earlier than expected. Now let’s see if Eguavoen will have common sense.

Rofl for that dusting powder part.
Lol Ghana wan close shop for 1st leg Abi dem go cancel second leg hahaha

safarigirl:
Na only Partey and Okoye go play the game? Abi Okoye never catch ball wey come from outside midefield before? Abi na Dodo Mayana dey catch ball for Ghana? Abi na Chiellini and Bonucci dey Ghana defense?

No be two legs match we dey play?

Some of una go just siddon for house, dey imagine worst case scenarios. I know say light no dey, so na heat make you dey reason far like this, pour yourself dusting powder and carry mattress go your frontage. You'll be fine

Rohr was alway talking. But talking lots of Rohrbish!

13large:
When Rohr wasn’t talking, you guys claimed that he is too boring, dry, quiet and meek. Now, you’re claiming that Eguavoen is talking too much. Nigerian fans talk too much abegi

you said it right my sister..
where you dey since?

safarigirl:
That guy is proper NFF connect, nothing anyone wants to tell me

As long as he is not injured, he will always make the list.

It's disgusting

At the time it was not clear that Ebuehi would be ready in time.
Shehu, however, should never have been given a look in regardless.

drDoom3:
Should be in the squad ahead of Shehu. Etebo was invited despite recovering from injury, Ebuehi too should have been invited.

Seems Ebuehi played today..

THE TRUTH the NFF have failed to see.

andrewbaba44:
Alhassan Yusuf scored today

Having a good season I must say

What would you do if you were Aiyegun?
I would say I want to wait for my chance with Nigeria. rings a bell?

Jargozaza:
Benin republic invited Tosin Aiyegun

We already have an advantage playing in a neutral venue. I want the better field which is likely Morocco's. We may even play better there than at Abuja.

mostob:
Benin will make sense..it will be as of we're playing at home

Somebody should please tell Eguavoen to stop dreaming about the SE of 94. That's so many years ago and football has changed alot.
Reason why I am happy Amuneke is in the crew. I just hope Eguavoen would welcome LOTS of input from his assistant

where is that my vawulence comrade with a green face?

lloydtruth:
Lots of tribal sentiments around here. Someone people are hell bent on downgrading Osihmen just to promote their tribesman Awoniyi.

lol.. then how is he a footballer na?

abi na hand Balogun like use

Odunayow:
Balogun is uncomfortable with the ball at his feet

Strong contender

Ronaldo reborn a man

TheLoneCitizen:
Yira Sor what a finish.

Then celebrates like Ronaldo. 21-year-old man.

lol
Onomah is the best AM we have never scouted

andrewbaba44:
I informed him about ikebe super hazard and he ran away

Sir, na only this kind stats u dey see o

komekn:
Sebastian couldn't cut it in the EPL he was essentially a flop.

But he goes to the Eredivisie and he becomes the highest goal scorer.

Akpos will need more time to really show us his stuff. This is why he should not be turning down invites. Na himself he dey do.

chrisooblog:
Chief he featured in 4 solid games which is enough to see what a player is all about but his performances were very average to put it mildly.

How many times did Ebuehi, Zaidu and Aribo play before we saw their qualities?

Even Sadiq Umar with less minutes played was beginning to settle but we should make excuses for Akpos.
