You people should dead this 'African team' talk, when those African teams go to the world cup why don't they pass the oyinbo teams like breeze? Tall and muscular Senegalese players were taught football lesson by small and short Japanese players at the last World Cup. Football is by tactics and technique, football no be UFC

BascoVanVeli:
Now u want to make it about goals lol.
It doesn't change what we have seen with our eyes. Aribo has done nothing outside his two goals for the super eagles. Etebo on the other hand was our best midfielder at two straight tournaments.

BascoVanVeli:
Etebo has been better than Ndidi at the national team level let's not make this what it is not. Ndidi is by far the better player at club level but when they wear green it isn't even close.

BREAKING NEWS :- Manchester City Forward TAI SODJE reject ENGLAND CALL UP because of NIGERIA

charlesemeka85:
All of us here no the reason why you re hell bent on forcing many to accept that etebo is the alpha and omega in the CM position of the current eagles set up

Do you really know the responbilities of a CM? Etebo doesn't score regularly nor even assist. Since his inclusion in the super eagles I hv never seen one decent through pass or long breathtaking pass

As a CM it is expected of you to dictate the tempo of play and hv that natural gift of organizing play from the middle, make runs to the oppositions box when the need arises and as well lessen the burden of creativity from the teams AM and wingers

All these mentioned above etebo doesn't hv them. He is only good at hassling the ball of opponents and, pace and agility to play over 90mins tuning tro n fro non stop

Mk we no dey allow sentiment beclound our sense of reasoning

Not only in the national team but make out time to watch aribo and etebo in their respective clubs then come back to tell me who is better

A CM midfielder that hardly gets assists and goals. Na to cover ground and impressive heat map after games we come chop?

BascoVanVeli:
Outside goal scoring Aribo can be pretty average for us. We saw it against Benin and we have seen it against the other competition.

Let's not even talk about international competitions because Etebo has been our best midfielder in the last two.

BascoVanVeli:
And I also know why u don't want people to hear the truth. Outside those goals Aribo performed the same as Frank Onyeka.

Umm Japan actually were lucky to draw Senegal so I don't know where u are getting this from. Senegal lost to Columbia which there is no shame in doing

mostob:
Bro... one bottle of Heineken for you. Some people need to understand that football is no more about brawn and brawl but brain. Technique is taking over while physique is just an advantage.

mostob:
Lucky? I doubt sir. Japan worked hard for it not just lucky. Senegal clearly came to the game with muscle bit Japan came with technique.

Etebo has the lungs I admire in my enforcers but he is not a good CM. Dude be forming activities but at the end of the day, one can not point out one ting he did all match, than to hug the ball and wait for who to flex muscle with. As for Aribo, I never rated him.

Danielnino00:
This is where the problem is..
Ndidi isn't used to playing a double pivot at club level.. He does his thing alone..
Pairing him with Etebo doesn't bring out the best in him..It actually beings confusion..

Let Rohr give Etebo a free role and watch Ndidi perform better..
We saw how good his partnership with Aribo was..

charlesemeka85:
frank onyeka is a dm not a cm

u see say true true you no say ball

charlesemeka85:
you said it all. in the current super eagles set up we do not have an above average CM

Danielnino00:
Japan clearly came with a purpose.. Senegal weren't organised enough..

In the round of 16, Belgium clearly used the height advantage against the Japanese to score two late goals...

charlesemeka85:
which means you no sabi watch ball

npfl dey on break?

BascoVanVeli:
Calm down and learn. Frank can play both as it states here. He has been deployed as a DMF this season but last year he was a CMF.

ChrisKels:
I hope Kelechi Nwakali keeps improving on his game and fitness. Dude was born for that position, and I want to see him manning it after summer

that have been the ban of african teams in the world cup. football inteligence,technique,tactics and skills supersedes muscle and power



this is the reason africa will always find it difficult to win the world cup. gara gara no be football

mostob:
I'm telling you. Intelligence, tactic and technique are taking over. But here in Africa, na to turn themselves into biological bulldozer. You go dey watch Sumo wrestling instead of football match.

AndSunGorilla:
Would Ndidi solve Liverpool's problems? Abi make we try get Klopp if he goes on another sabbatical after all these recent failings. No think am too much o.
