It may be the players oooo
Because even pep cannot do anything with these players

Bomnaija:
I don't know how u guys see this but i think this Nigerian team is really useless....basic footballing skills is not possessed by any of the players except maybe osimhen and I dare to say that without osimhen in this team, they will struggle to beat Tahiti or even Somalia...

Which kind team be this...
No intelligent play, no pattern, nothing.
Thunder fire anybody wey dey hope this team go qualify for world cup. Nonsense.

All they know how to do is to be doing content with that calister girl and her lesbian partner. Fools

They play in PSL, our boys play in the top 5 leagues. Ours Olisa Ndah who is one of the best in their league can't even make SE team. So why is trashing them so difficult. Can someone explain it for me. Or does it mean that playing in Europe doesn't mean that one is better. Make it make sense for me.

Tchinaidi:
To be Genuine Honest there is Nothing special about Onyeka.There are no doubt about his ability to tackle and win duels but football is much more than than running around the pitch.His on the ball qualities are significantly less to nothing and that explains why his absence from the squad.Alhassan on their can push the ball upfront as well give decisive passes but may not be as rugged as onyeka.Coach chelle is known for high pressing game and is strictly interested in ball carries as midfielders hence his decision to go Hassan

Mujtahida:
Abi you will add Onyeka to Ejuke as part of the players who you have personal interest? Frank the Tank is my man.

Samueltemi337:
As you put that guy for middle you think say we nor go notice 😒

Mujtahida:
No let Meliforme catch you oo

TheSuperNerd:
Let's just focus on the upcoming game.

Yes, Frank Onyeka's exclusion is a shock. He was Nigeria's best MF at the last Afcon. But then, there is some truth in the fact that the MFs selected are better ball passers than Onyeka.
Even at that, none of them does the "water carrier" job in the middle better than Onyeka. Either they match him or come close or are far off.

The biggest shock for me is Christantus Uche not getting his first true main invite to the GWG. He is of a profile that we don't have in the Super Eagles. A yaya toure regen and will also serve us in the final third as a powerful CAM with physical presence and high technical quality. But I believe his time will come eventually this year.

Good to finally see Igoh Ogbu getting called up. We need him at the back. His invite brings the Omeruo/Awaziem CB eras to an end.

Alhassan Yusuf is a player many love to throw shades at but again he is as workaholic as Onyeka and Ndidi and has more on-the-ball quality than both of them. The only issue is his diminutive stature. A bit lightweight which makes him extra aggressive in duels to make up for his small stature and it sometimes gets him carded for rough tackles. I like him but he is a MF we can drop too.

Papa Daniel... a local lad who happens to be the best of the bunch among the CHAN Eagles Midfielders. Giving him a chance is not a bad move but if you ask me personally who I am dropping to accommodate both Uche and Onyeka in the list, Daniel will be one of them.

Papa Daniel, Aribo and Yusuf.

I will drop 2 out of these 3 to bring in Uche and Onyeka.


In all, the list is the list. Chelle has finally revealed the first layer of his shell. Picking his first 11 is the next layer to unveil.

Soon, the shell over Chelle's introductory tactical approach for this team will fall off and we will know for sure.

Again, let's just focus on the upcoming game.

minfelix:
decent enough… its not a must we get a coach that has won afcon and come and flop with us

WarHammer2000:
Well, both Rohr and Peseiro had average RECENT records before they joined the SE but they achieved meaningful success with us.

No matter how good a cook is, if you give her
2,000 naira to cook a pot of Ogbono soup, she will certainly do worse than an average chef given a budget of 500,000 naira to prepare the same dish.

No matter how skilled a coach is, if he keeps getting hired by poor teams with average players, there's little he can do. Chelle has never managed a team as talented as the SE before. Now he has a team with elite players in the best clubs in the world at his disposal.

Let's see how his soup will taste.

TheSuperNerd:
He is our Yaya Toure-MF Profile. No midfielder like him in our fold currently.

He started behind the striker today though before being pushed further forward after the striker got subbed out and was at the center of the action indeed even creating a few chances.

Like Nwakali being unique for his DLP profile, Uche is very unique as the closest MF profile to a Yaya Toure I have seen among our lads in the midfield pool home and abroad.

Komehn will be minding his business and someone will disrespect him. When he writes multiple epistles his the bad guy
