Why do we like making things difficult? We could have easily beaten Zambia 10-0

Dem tie Oshoala leg for village

Good to know! Uwc

DrLikita12:
It has, thank you.

Before

daveP:
So Chukwueze has a brighter chance of going to Cameroun than Nwakali!? Isokay.

Good day! My day has been wonderful so far. I hope yours has been as well

DrLikita12:
Good morning,
Hope you have a wonderful day

To elaborate on my position

TheSuperNerd:
Creating a new thread for it will be okay and I think better. Doing it here will mean it will be muddled up in all the discussions and news that will always be dropped here. Let's give it its own thread to deliberate on and then of course any other moniker can always come observe if they want, after all it won't be a closed thread.... and I trust they won't constitute a distraction on that thread.

I don't think I support the WhatsApp idea. Not about to give out my personal contacts just like that. Shalom Dad. That is my take.

Very special mentions to DrLikita12 , Mickael2 , do4luv14 and Icons79

I hail una o!!!!

Although still public, a separate thread is a good idea to reduce distractions.

Nairaland Nigerian players awards, 2018.

Good evening house, now that we have seen all the matches for this year it is time to roll out nominees for various award categories.

Once again here are the elected nomination committee members: Tbaba1234, Icon4s, Forgiveness, Komekn, TheSuperNerd, Chriskels and Joebie.

Please house note that the discussions on the selection process would be strictly amongst these 7 monikers.

First off Committee members, do we discuss on this thread or create a separate thread for the selection process?
Let's get this sorted out first then we commence the players selection process.

Committee members we need your quick responses.

You have a point. How we make the approach matters a big deal especially at this stage. At least he should be aware we are still interested but we don’t have to make another official move.

Clementoke:
Don't get me wrong sir. I support every move that is directed towards Foreign born Nigerians Akpoguma inclusive. No one is overlooking Akpoguma who I see as a good player. The good thing is that he has been approached after which he asked to be given time to see if Germany might still call him. I see no sense in reaching out to him again before he makes up his mind
If we pursue him too hard, that will be desperation bro. If Akpoguma doesn't play for us heaven will not fall. I hope you remember that Awaziem did not even make the squad for this international matches.

No be fight. The man has his own career just as you do. If his inclusion will serve Nigeria well, then good for us. It’s his choice to make. Ours is to always look at what is in it for us. At the end of the day if we get him, it could be a win-win situation. Honestly, if Uduokhai’s stats this season was good enough, I would prefer an approach in his direction. Torunarigha na no go area.

Clementoke:
In need? Not sure we are that desperate. It is Akpoguma we are talking about here not the Ramos, Boateng and the Koulibalys of this world.
Akpoguma is not in the class of Zaha talent wise.
I just pity am. By the time hin eye go clear, he fit no see chance for SE again

Wetin do Ajayi?

zuchyblink:
We need Billing and Akpoguma in our team. Onuachu deserves a look in. Akpoguma could be the perfect completion of Oyibo wall if we are to play 3 at the back

We are saying the same thing essentially.

charlesemeka85:
we must not wait till he plays for barca or the liverpool first team. secure him first and allow him grow with the team. iwobi who is the poster boy of nigerian football today was capped when he was still playing for arsenal u21s

Why not? They are not similar players. They should be able to complement each other. Agu is closer to Onazi than Ndidi in style of play.

TheSuperNerd:
Yeah... I think we are getting there shaa... Would you play Ndidi and Agu together at same time? Hmmmm... Wellll.... **Scratches head** Still thinking...

Well I guess we have ample time to do his paperwork before the Seychelles game. He is the only real candidate IMO.

charlesemeka85:
yea! eberechi eze

Will he come good immediately if he made the switch? I don’t think he has reached his full potential . But at least let’s secure him for our Olympic team.

Odunayaw:
Ovie?

Ajagun particularly has not been impressive this season. But do we have any other AM options?

Odunayaw:
He raised a point but puts it to death by adding Kayode

Hopefully we line up good friendlies(against African opponents) before AFCON proper, a total of 4 good friendlies both home & away. That way we can test

I didn’t watch the first half. I hope our midfield is finally taking shape. Ndidi, Iwobi, and Agu? Not bad

TheSuperNerd:
Mikel Agu is a quality DM option. I think I will pick him over Onazi right now. Against a solid African opposition like Uganda, Agu stood tall. He may gatecrash the Final 23 if he finishes strong this season.

Honestly, with Onazi away, I think we are covered in Agu but again we need to move in for Philip Billing soon.

Uganda was a solid opposition defensively. Nice test of our forward line. Success looked promising in the absence of Ighalo.

So far, and for now I’m satisfied with Kalu, Chukwueze, Ighalo and Musa in our offense.

In midfield, we can still rely on Iwobi and Ndidi.

In defense, Ekong and Balogun.

The rest still dey audition.

That’s how complete our team is to be realistic if we are to compete with any team. Rohr still has loads of work to do IMO.

At LW only Musa has locked in a spot IMO

I think I'm satisfied with out RW options -- Kalu and Chukwueze.

I just tire for this match

I will watch the 2nd half

gbosaa:
I think you should watch it if you can, they are playing well so far and Osimhen has been unlucky. He has had two beautiful opportunities to score but he missed

Lol we should be paying homage to SA. Or better yet hold those Zoonimals accountable.

Odunayaw:
laslas I know say we no get other option. Na NTA de hold us to ransome

U sure say no be SS?

Odunayaw:
Na NTA i still de call dunghead na

I'm glad I'm not even watching it. This one na another Liberia friendly hahaha

gbosaa:
Everything is wrong with this match. It was scheduled to start at 15.00, then 15.30 but it started 45mins late.

And of all the angles and location to position the camera, it was this!
It’s almost like someone is videoing and streaming from the substitute bench.

This is horrible to watch. Pinnick and co got this wrong. Uganda almost scored with a cycle kick.

Lol. U dey call person that can choose to either do it well for us or not dunghead. Wetin u go all those that CANNOT do it? If they really can, why have they never gotten it right? Na SuperDungHead be that o

Odunayaw:
Haven't you noticed?

There's always a gap of coverage quality when Supersport comes down here to cover any match!

Compare how they cover their own premiership to the nonsense they are showing us

na why I go de everly swear for NTA. We are at the mercies of those dungheads

Nice

realpoacher:
Which Supersport channel is showing our friendly against Uganda?


Urgent response please

I hope we get to see 6 subs, and no late subs. — Afelokhai inclusive

TheSuperNerd:
Super Eagles starting XI vs Uganda...

Official....


Chukwueze starts as RW... His NT debut.

Osimhen starts as CF... His first NT start.

Ogu pairs Ajayi in Central defence.

Idowu as RB, Collins as LB.

Agu as DM, Etebo as CM (in double pivot with Agu but with the freedom to roam the midfield and Mark while Agu sits).

Iwobi as AM.

Musa is captain and plays LW.


I like that attack.

Onyekuru and Success both need to start for once. Let Musa rest

Modified
Look at Iwobi. No other AM.

TheSuperNerd:
Yes he is.

Is Success in camp?

TheSuperNerd:
This is not official but it is a probable lineup....

I think SS10 as well

TheSuperNerd:
Yes yes Of course Sir Dan... Super Sports 9.
