Bro end that topic there’s nothing you’re going to tell me about ejuke that i don’t know I don’t follow stats or whatever I watch with my 2 eyes before he came to Sevilla i was watching him week in and week out not just him any 9ja player especially our boys at slavia Prague

Oga there’s no way you want to quote it, ejuke has not even scratched his potential self not to talk of being euro best 🤣 una let fugazi praise get to his head 🤣

You see how productive marhez is even without the pace or physicality he can assist and score for fun

The moment ejuke learns to assist and score for fun and forget about all these best dribbler rubbish then he’ll be making real waves

As of now he’s just average with nothing exceptional to show for
I decided not to reply you further when i read your last paragraph.
You made sentiments your advisor.

You said there is "nothing exceptional" about Europe's top dribbler.
You can criticise him all you want, but saying there is nothing exceptional about him, is denying facts.

You did not even read what i wrote.

These guy needs a better technique coach
Which can improve his productivity because all these talks about dribbling na for him pocket only stats that matters is G/A nothing else

Make we stop to they hype the man abeg so he fit increase his productivity

Or we have a 5 star ⭐️ dribbler on our hands and we’re ok with him just dribbling wtf 🤬

Bro should learn synergy with his teammates and become either an assist merchant let top 9 have the finishing touch

Or be a cut in and strike like robben

Wtf is dribbling compared to the talent he has at his disposal his productivity is very very very very poor
And that’s the truth
He became Europe's top dribbler playing for Sevilla.
And he is their most creative outlet.

Don't ever think he is not productive.
Don't let a poor study determine your conclusions.

He should have had three goal by now,
I saw those goals.
I have also seen his shooting.

His goal chances creation is not poor.
I have seen his team.
And I know the quality that surrounds him at present.

Don't let a poor study determine what you make of him.
He has always been a fantastic dribbler, but became Europe's best, playing for Sevilla.
Improve the quality around him and see him shine the more, football is team sports.

And finally...

Don't think that his branding as highly technical has got only to do with his dribbling skills.
His shooting, his passing, are also included.

Europe's top dribbler

We have insane quality in the final third.

I think you like being contrarian perhaps because it makes you feel intelligent. Not necessarily from this post but there's a clear pattern where as people dey go right, you dey go left, as dem dey say black, you dey say white. I like dissident thinkers oo but this your own get as e be.
My intelligence is without doubt.

Ademola Lookman did more offensively and defensively, and had a more spectacular display than Moses Simon.
It is not difficult to understand.

How will he impress you with his tactics when from your first sentence it is obvious you misinterpreted his tactics. He played 4-3-3 not 4-2-3-1. Iwobi played his natural AM role, Onyeka was the CM and Ndidi the DM.

He will only impress you when he plays Ejuke 😏😏
I did not mention Ejuke, you brought him into the conversation.

I am not the only one who reckons Ejuke's technique to be above average.
A lot of independent analysts are professing it.

Football technique is not all about dribbling, as dribbling is not the only skill in football.
We don't currently have a winger who is better at passing the ball compared to Ejuke, that is why he is labelled very technical.
Our wingers are not that excellent at the game of passes, especially when it comes to using long balls to switch plays.

In my assessment of the game, Ademola Lookman was our best player yesterday and not Moses Simon.

Lookman did more both offensively and defensively.

How many clear cut chances did we create, we created few.

I will say things the way they are, and hope to see improvements.

Eguavoen did not impress me with his tactics.

Oh my God.

It is so clear that Eguavoen played 4231.
Iwobi played very close to Boniface that sometimes you will think it is 442.
Iwobi sometimes pressed the Libyans alone especially in the first half.

How do you guys watch matches and interpret so little.

Eguavoen was poor, some said he wasn't conservative, but he was to some extent. Our wingers sat deeper, off the ball.
We had more of the ball and looked like we were doing most of the attacking, because the Libyans were very poor, so so poor, with a mediocre game plan, and Eguavoen did not take advantage of this to utilise our players that are in form.
Our wingers played deeper than they should and weren't pressing the Libyans.
Our wingers got few shots.
Sports › Re: "The Super Eagles Thread: The Road To AFCON 2027, 2028 And 2030 World Cup by Meliforme: 11:35pm On Oct 11, 2024
It was clear Eguavoen did not expect a low defensive block from the Libyans.
The 4231 setup left Boniface somewhat isolated and suspended among the sea of defenders, there were no space for him to do anything.
The setup also saw our wingers playing very close to the touchline isolating Boniface, early at the first half.
Off the ball our wingers played very close to the midfield, and weren't pressing the Libyans.
The setup also saw our wingers not attempting shots at goal because they played deeper.

While it is true that Eguavoen did not expect the Libyans to go ultra defensive. What happened to tweaking your tactics to commit more forwards closer to the 18 yard box.

Eguavoen is yet to impress me with his tactics. I pray that someday he will.

I'm my opinion which you can disregard, he flatters to decieve limited end product too much dribbling with nothing very little to show.

How many goals has he scored in the past four seasons in 80 league games he has scored 9 goals. That's poor with all his unnecessary dribbling 😞
I am looking towards the day you will break your record of lies and utter bias.

Na one player I dey use one eye look and na Boniface…if he failed to step in very well in place of Osimhen then he is not for eagles….Ejuke deserves the call up but if given the chance he must show he is ready this time around
Alright, elder Kog45.

I watch Sevilla games because of Ejuke, but his Super Eagles performance is more important.
He will deliver in S.E.

Sevilla fans will come for your head for this.
They won't be chanting his name as he was subbed out at 89 minutes, if they think like you that don't even watch him.

Dude made 3 key passes and a had a disallowed goal because of a teammate that was fractionally offside.
In one of the key passes he made to Lukebakio, he could have gone for goal, but was selfless.

Although Ejuke's supposed assist was eventually chalked off, it doesn't take away from the fact that he indeed had a good game.

7/9 dribbles completed.(highest in the game... Na him food).

9 ground duels won (highest in the game)

11 recoveries.

He was heavily involved to help Sevilla earn a point at Bilbao.
He also made 1 tackle and 1 Interception.

The coach should make up his mind on his starting eleven, and build understanding and synergy among them.
He made mistakes yesterday.

Sevilla has the historic pedigree but currently lack the quality to sustain that pedigree. If they don't turn things around, they will get relegated by season's end.

Time will tell.
It is their wingers that i appreciate the most.
Chidera Ejuke and Dodi Lukebakio.

I am truly concerned for that team
They look like relegation candidates
They really need to refresh their forward line, and sadly, iheanacho is not the answer
I hope they sort themselves out soon
They have very good wingers in Dodi Lukebakio and Childera Ejuke.
They are very good and dangerous.

They need a good center forward.
Isaac Romero and Kelechi Iheanacho do not impress me.

They also need a decent backline, because they concede cheap goals.

Sevilla do not really have a good center forward.
Iheanacho's positioning and anticipation is not encouraging.

Loic Bade has no business on the bench.

Childera Ejuke has no business on the bench.
Ejuke is having a good synergy and communication with Dodi Lukebakio, as their communication with long balls, switching plays, is something good to see.
Ejuke's presence on the pitch, diverted attention from Lukebakio, giving Lukebakio more space to do his thing.

Make he go sleep
I have watched all Sevilla matches this season, he come be like say I jobless 🤣🤣🤣
The guy will dribbles successfully and when it's time to shot or tries to make assist, he will pass backward.
For Iheanacho at Sevilla, that guy is washed out already and I won't be surprise if at the end of the season his contract is terminated while they keep Ejuke
He is Sevilla's most creative player.
He assisted their only goal against Liverpool in a friendly match.

Dude has it in him.

bros they are not similar in any way

Adriano was too complete. In his prime he was the closest thing to R9. Bobo was unplayable with shooting power that can be compared to that of few

No disrespect to Boniface but no try compare him to Adriano unless u no watch the Brazilian during his prime
Boniface is also complete.
