Sincerely speaking, Akpeyi doesn't LOOK confident between the sticks. It's surprising going by his exposure.
Ezenwa is much of a showman. I guess that's what he does to kill tension. And it's helped him a lot. However, the Ghana game exposed him. He may not be to blame for all the goals, but conceding 4 goals in a match doesn't look good for any keeper.
Ajiboye, on his part, we have not seen enough of him. He MAY just be the best of the trio. He needs more games for us to really tell.

Overall, choosing between Akpeyi and Ezenwa can be tricky.

Joebie:
Celebrate not yet.
OGN may come back few hours of the match to say Rohr made a U-TURN. Ezenwa now to start.

Flaghouse1:
Thank you very much for this noble contribution to the discourse .
@ bolded refers- if this guy was a white dude you will support his ideas but just because his a Nigerian,you won't support is ideas. if the guy was one American or a British named RILEY NIGEL the idiot will not spew out this trash analysis ,the CEO is a young chap let us rally round him to make this project a success in order to reduce the grip of DSTV dominance in our cable market in Nigeria and may be with time TSTV will be a fully Nigerian brand

elyte89:
All dis etebo shld partner dis one,Mikel shld bench akpeyi...stop giving ursef unnecessary disturbance jare u will get to knw d line up by October 7th,precisely 4:30pm or even b4 sef,u wuld knw d starting line up released by d head coach..

Daejoyoung:
What I'm saying is that Etebo or Ogu would help us retain possession more against a fast team (relying on the pace of their wingers)and also give the attackline more steam. Ndidi is better against less mobile opponents like Cameroon, where he is there to chase the ball but not necessarily keep possession.

Daejoyoung:
Maybe not Agu.

Daejoyoung:
Hmm, Akpeyi looks shaky though.

Daejoyoung:
Confidence is more important, because it can't be imbibed in a day, but recklessness is easier to overcome or guard against, so I'll go for Ezenwa.

almudeer:
Mikel didn't played South Africa match

No wonder they wont let Igbos Go?!

Kwara state sould just be renamed "Saraki state"



Saraki`s family solely owns the entire state. No rival.

Daejoyoung:
I would prefer Onazi -Etebo-Mickel.

Danielnino00:
. Alright folks... Its a new day... And just 4 days to D-day....

Which midfield combo would u prefer vs Zambia?

Ndidi- Onazi-Mikel

Ndidi-Etebo-Mikel

Onazi-Etebo-Mikel

Icon4s:
Yet this is a player some here wanted out of the team.

Joebie:
“We are not going to train in the morning. Those that arrived last night will only do normal light warm up to ease off jet-lag. Full training will hold in the evening training,” stressed the Super Eagles Media Officer, Toyin Ibitoye, who also arrived Uyo yesterday.

Remaining players:

Alex Iwobi,
Victor Moses,
Ola Aina,
Uche Agbo,
Chidozie Awaziem
Ogenyi Onazi
Moses Simon

Voted means nomination.

William Gallas and Gyan were once upon a time nominated.

TheGoodJoe:
That talk had nothing to do with Roy Keane's ability as a player. Character is different from ability.

komekn:
I agree with the larger part of your view.

He was definitely not a technically gifted player, a simplistic ENFORCER with a bit more intelligence than Vinny Jones. Defensive midfielder who prided himself as the hardest man in football.

Keane's autobiography in August 2002, in which he stated that he intended "to hurt" Håland. Keane's account of the incident was as follows:



I'd waited long enough. I fucking hit him hard. The ball was there (I think). Take that you cunt. And don't ever stand over me sneering about fake injuries.

In today modern game he would not be able to make it into the premiership. Beyond bully boy tactics which worked in the EPL at that time, he didn't offer much more.

Never forget the day Thierry Henry got into an argument with him. He tried to get rough, but Henry mesmerised him with skill and left him for dead.

He will be in the list of most red cards in the EPL and that's with alleged favouritism given to Fergies players. He Keane should have been given a lot more than he got.

kennysville:
Folks, countrymen, Nigerians!!!
Can we please leave this legendary talk of Mikel being a legend. There will always be arguments as to wwho is a legend, who is better between Messi and CR7, who is the greatest footballer Pele or Maradona and so on.

The discourse at hand should be Nigeria vs Zambia. I expect tactics, analysis and strategies with the pool of players we have invited. What Zambians think is irrelevant cos what they havent factored in is the high humidity levels in Nigeria. One thing is sure, if our selection is devoid of sentiments and is done with utmost objectivity, we will definitely fly.
Therefore people, let the analysis flow, projections, and so on .... legend talk is a bit... er... um ... boring!!!

Daejoyoung:
I don't think Akpeyi has the confidence of Ezenwa, but it seems to me that Ezenwa could be reckless sometimes.

forgiveness:
Of course, AVB contributed to that success na. After all, he took them to the quarter finals.

forgiveness:
If there is no space you can't run and if there's a wall you can't but stop.

4-4-1-1 is my formation when defending. 4-2-3-1 when attacking.


..........................Akpeyi........


Shehu............ Balogun......... Troost......... Aina/Echiejile


Victor.......... Onazi.............Ndidi................... Simon

................................... Obi

......................... Ighalo.

If the foundation no good and the house collapse, wetin be the problem? Foundation. Foundation =Keshi.

forgiveness:
Who was the coach before Oliseh?

Did Keshi have any part in the nations cup qualifiers before Oliseh took over?

Mickael2:
you wan corner me abi, I don dey age small small since I was able to figure out what my Oga wanted to do to me

Mickael2:
I think Busquets has scored quite a few goals. I can remember his winner against Valencia sometime ago.

However, do you know why Iniesta keeps on making the FIFA XI? Why he won the UEFA man of the match in the 2015 Ucl final despite not scoring or even making an assist? Because he controls the game. Me I don't care if Busquets doesn't score or if he scores as often as Santa visits my place so long as he does his job perfectly well. Same goes for Mikel too

Mickael2:
wait oo you wan use the goal cast my guy? I told you goals alone don't matter

Mickael2:
theGoodJoe doesn't want to see that at all
