Why is nobody mentioning Etebo in the scheme of our midfield things,

is he that bad or what??

charlesemeka85:
Onyedika is very good and this will be evident to everyone when he moves to a bigger league. He is a better passer and ball carrier than Ndidi. Also very good in tackles

charlesemeka85:
if we can get Adarabioyo he will make a perfect combo with bassey

His is calm and good on the ball with good height and decent pace while bassey is more robust and faster

Another I like which many seem not to regard is semi ajayi

To me currently judging by what we hv he is our best RCB at the moment

Simi dey forget him self some times.. And there is always a confusion between Simi and Bassey as seen always even in the last game, between who moves first when there is a loose ball and the opposition closing down.. I observed them making this mistake twice. A good opponent would have dealt with us by that mistake

Another good combo should be Toru and Ajayi/Adarabioyo but we hv to wait to see how the former performs when given a chance

charlesemeka85:
I don’t know for others but ndidi remains our best CDM/shield to the back four while Onyeka’s agility,strength and tackling ability makes him our best b/b midfielder

Iwobi is our best CAM

If jpes loves passing out from the back then I prefer a press resistant player like Onyedika who is more comfortable on the ball and a better passer than Ndidi

comodo:
In our match against Egypt. Immediately Iwobi was removed, it became something else. The same against Ghana. Iwobi and Ndidi we're not available and it became Osimhen and Insha Allah. All our MF personnel should be invited to the camp. Whether in div 3 or 1. That way JPes can get up to 3 combinations to use for a tournament.

charlesemeka85:
haba bro we were

Super eagles were the best entertaining the at the group stage before been knocked out by Tunisia 🇹🇳 in the second round mostly due to the red card given to iwobi

Even with 10 men the team dominated the Tunisians. Eguavoen tactical plunder also contributed to the teams failure

No mind Egu.. Him no learn well from Zidane and Moh... They will not attack u all out.. He got too carried away with all attack and forgets to defend

He ought to hv been tighter and a bit rigid knowing that in the knock out phase sometimes an all attacking tactics backfires especially when you are playing a more disciplined side that will sit back and hit on counter attacks

ChrisKels:
Between Ndidi, Onyeka and Onyedika who shields better and who deserves a roaming opportunity? That is where the problem lies

charlesemeka85:
yea bro, my major worry is our CB positions

If we can get additional 1 or 2 decent players to compete in that position we re good to go

I no follow for pple having wet dreams of having a xavi or iniesta kinda midfielder when he don’t even hv any at the moment

To be the only midfield addition I will welcome is the inclusion of Ebenezer Akinsanmiro not for immediate impact but to be groomed for future purposes ( I think before 2026 World Cup he will be ready)

Our best midfield 4 remains

Ndidi
Iwobi
Onyeka
Onyedika

Aribo should be excused for Alhassan, Akin, Folorunsho or nwakali to be tried making the number to 5

comodo:
Boundary conditions are not always ideal. There should be room for uncertainties.

TheSuperNerd:
This is not as simple as you have put it.

And no you are not the only one thinking so. I have literally said Jpes isn't picking the right midfield options even from the available he has invited so far. He can tweak it better without inviting any new MF but time will tell on him.

charlesemeka85:
The trio are the best we hv at the moment

charlesemeka85:
that one concern u

No be because of the same nwakali prompted your post?🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Kettle calling pot black 🤣🤣🤣🤣

ChrisKels:
People have talked so much about the shortage of personnels in our midfied, but am I the only one who thinks that with the right combinations, we have more than enough personnels in that midfied to take us to the finals of AFCON and also get us through the world cup qualifications easily barring any bad injuries?


To me, our defense is good enough even though our goalkeeping department isn't the best. The right midfield combinations can easily help our defense shield our goalkeeper while we kill off any opposition with our fire power.

charlesemeka85:
no add nnadi and Akin to cover your agenda

Just ask what stopped the coach from inviting Nwakali 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣


Una go wait tire 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

BascoVanVeli:
What impressed me most about Iheanacho was his off the ball work. We can talk about level of competition all we want but that type of effort will always translate to any level of competition. If he can bring it like that all the time he would be virtually undroppable

Amedino99:
come to think of it, did we ever scored more than 4 goals in a match during rohr's time?

charlesemeka85:
mk Nwakali come serie A try the finesse mk we see 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

If dem no jam em intestine and guts out mk I knw wetin cause am

charlesemeka85:
Tomorrow una go say Nwakali is better than Enzo Fernandez or Caicedo 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

I like this SofaScore new feature. It gives you an imagery if you have not seen the highlights or not watching the game.

It tells you the situation, the part of the body used in the goal attempt, the direction of the ball, and the outcome.

For example Akor’s goal below, was due to a fast beak situation. He struck the ball with his left foot. The ball went to the low center of the goal, and the outcome was successful.

BascoVanVeli:
Osimhen’s leg long sha

charlesemeka85:
lemme ooo 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

charlesemeka85:

PurpleHouse:
I am not the kind of person who usually talks about footballers age. But how sire are about Gift Orban? I want him to last in the game. Hope he's truly 20. Best wishes to him. He reminds me of Obafemi Martins.☺️

charlesemeka85:
Never played for Nigeria at U17 or U20 level, Star of the week, Gift Orban has had a meteoric rise since beginning his career in Europe in 2022.

The 20-year old is already making a name for himself in Belgium after outgrowing the Norwegian scene in barely one year.
