What I learned reading this is that: With the right antenna and proper system set in place, we can unearth many dynamically talented players here in the League, in Nigeria. If we can do this successfully, then screw those shakara foreign borns.

It's the same thing Amunike is crying about. The number of talents we are throwing away due to the negligence to develop our local club football. I share the idea with him. We need to stop wasting billions on meaningless projects and develop our football. The number of jobs we can create from it, publicity, and even development. It can form a way to curb crime too.

Sad we have visionless leaders who only enjoy seeing money in their accounts.

Thank God we won't hear that again, those were bad times grin If it were Rohr he would have mentioned Salah atleast 3 times by now

''You know we are missing Osimhen due to injury and experienced Ighalo.

This Egypt match will be an interesting game. You they have Mo Salah one of the best players. For us we have to rely on the collective because we don't have again players like Jayjay or kanu.

You know we are a young team....''

PurpleHouse:


I swear bro. You see how the player's have been talking confident. Because Eguavoen has told them they have only one assignment: to win Afcon.

Baba Ijebu would have killed their moral by now by reminding them of their fears and preparing to start Simon Moses. Tueh! cool

Technique over physicality anyday, anytime. This is why I don't support those who subscribe to the notion of choosing very physical players and dropping the less physical ones for the AFCON.

Until West African teams learn to incorporate the tenets of technical football into their style of play, the more fragile looking but highly intelligent and open minded North African teams will continue to have an edge over us.

Brains over Brawn cool

Yes he scored 3 or 4 goals but he was a slow player during the Rio olympics.I was surprised seeing Siasia include him in the lineup each match.
We all have our opinions though

His goals were essential for our medal. He won the Honduras game almost singlehandedly.

Stop trying to belittle his achievements.

Quaresma, Fabio Coentrao, Jesus Navas, David Beckham, Willian, Antonio Valencia, Jordan Herdenson, Wan Bissaka, Bernado Silva, Coutinho.

These guys can't do shiit with their left foot, even in tight corners they are over-reliant on their right leg to move the ball.

You know we were taking about forward players. And yes there are many player's who are so heavily one footed it's become a handicap. But more so with forward players.

I've seen Jordan shoot with both feet and do 30 yard passes with both feet. You don't know Coutinho , you are wrong, I know him Wijnaldum. You are wrong about Bernado too as well as Quresma.

Collins, Omeruo has not been particularly good infact , even Zaidu is all running no quality end product or football intelligence.


Zaidu’s crossing is decent…

We don’t need him to be a Robbo or a Trent, as long as he is fast to recover, strong and can cross well, for me he’s okay.

The only reason I'm not going to insult Eguavoen here is because he's the one seeing the players in training.

However, Ejuke dribbles from the wing, either coming from wings or driving to the wings. Playing him as 10 will just destabilize the attack. Can he even give a through pass. He hardly does so for CSKA. If he's not playing as a winger then he should be on the bench abeg.

Eguavoen seems a little too mesmerized by Ejuke's dribbling. It's becoming annoying.

I hope he is not stuck in the past , football has moved on. I really hope he has updated his knowledge base and is moving with the times.

And has not gone to his familiar comfort zone of the past

I've been impressed with the facilities and most especially broadcast quality so far.

Looks like a tournament taking place in SA or any North African country.

One wonders why CAF even toyed with the idea of taking it away from Cameroon to Qatar.

Under pressure and running at full speed does he have the composure to pick a accurate cross.

Yes because you no longer necessarily need to wait till the AFCON to scout for African players, cos you see them week in week out in their various European clubs.


And so the idea you can use the AFCON to further your career is no longer as tenable as it used to be.

Egypt is not a better team than Morocco

Maybe you are judging the Moroccan team from today’s game

Egypt will play better against us than Morocco played against Ghana today. Their team mostly plays together and are from the same league.

Lmao you don’t watch CSKA then. Ejuke is not a winger for CSKA, he is a left-sided AM (part of the 2 in like a 4-3-2-1). Most of his CSKA highlights show him collecting the ball from deep in midfield and then drifting into the left wing.

Also he gives through passes for CSKA too. Watch his highlights.

Just ignore those part you're focusing on and think of the bright side boss. I'm not saying screw them like forget abou them, I'm saying there'll be no need to beg anyone to wear the national team jersey with pride and passion.

Thise ones you mentioned love this country. The rest na pretenders and wide wild west hustlers.

Sorry if I get heated and emotive and even a bit deragatory.


But when you say Foreign born you are talking about me. You are saying I am less patriotic because l was not born in Nigeria.

I was born in the UK but made in Warri.

I don't watch it very often though. Just a few times and his highlights as well. But you still captured what I'm saying. He either drifts to the wing to cross or comes from wing.

So is that how he will play the number 10 for us?

[quote author=PurpleHouse post=109255178]

I agree with most of what you said.

But...

Morocco is more compact than Egypt ooh. Na because na Ghana that's why you feel they're not compact. This Moroccan team will eat Senegal for meal. Ghana get pedegree and strong head for Afcon even though it's been 30yrs they last won it.

Ebuehi can handle Salah majestically. You're right about Sanusi, he runs and lacks sense, and overlaps too often. But he's fast.

In essence, if we play slightly better than Ghana with a midfield that's tough to crack, we will be unplayable by any team.

And don't he surprised, we may just nack them 3 : 0 tomorrow. cool cool[/quote]
This was the dream I had last year November grin... imagine dreaming of a match that is to be played in January and then seeing a correct score of 3:0

But I look at the quality of league and club you are playing in as the measurement for quality. In the HERE and NOW. You cannot be playing moi moi Football in a low level league and club and think you become a Lion in the AFCON.
