The boys individually played well but as usual, the formation ruined it. 424 in modern day football is unacceptable

Our midfield looked so lean in the first half that the Tunisians were having a swell night. However, the lads tried there best and gave in a good response in the second half.

The officiating was skewed to our detriment and luck wasn't on our sides despite spirited efforts from our boys.

As Moses Praise of Supersport would say ' in Afcon any team can defeat iyal'aya anybody' grin

Oga, am not into this Man city nor European football club stuff, this is National team football where you do not have the luxury of another opportunity to remedify a lost opportunity.
Am talking of either you win or lose in a knockout stage you telling me about other factors. Oga off your mic..am off to bed. Good nite and have a pleasant less stressful work week ahead.

You literally did not say anything. I repeat we do not play sexy football under Eguavoen. He plays a direct offensive system. So you can not criticize him for playing sexy football.

If Rohr was our coach, Sudan and Guinea-Bissau may have beaten us... the only thing that could have helped Rohr is that I am 98% sure he would have called Dessers..

Nigeria lacked a pacy striker upfront and the only one we had ( Onyekuru ) he didn't play often..


The same Rohr wey no put Dessers for 40-man list for call am?

You are not sharing an opinion, you are pronouncing damnation for someone's career. Even when I was ranting about Sadiq, at no point, did I say he should not be a footballer.

There is sharing an opinion, and there is what you were doing. That is why I adviced you to sleep on it, because you were sounding really hateful and it's not healthy.

I no even know wetin make you dey bring sharing opinion here, because I did not say you should not share your opinion, I said you should sleep on it.
Damnation of someone's character? Wtf are you talking about? Did I call him a rapist? A thief? Wtf is Damnation of character here? I simply said he should stay off England. He doesn't have the talent or ability to survive there as a goalkeeper and you're capping trash. Abeg comot my face!

No dey whine us with Rohr for here. He fell off for a reason
It's ridiculous that some couldn't see that we were declining with every game we played under Rohr. Right after we qualified for Russia, I sensed a shift and from then on, I knew Rohr wasn't good for us. Let Eguavoen fail a thousand times, I'd still support Rohr's sack

A winger must not always run with the ball. Sometimes he needs to make room for his teammates to operate.

Chuks worked with Aina, Iheanacho and Awoniyi. Made some tidy drops for Ndidi and Aribo.

Running with ball is not the only work of the winger.

goodnight..

You see, you are so angry, you did not even read what I wrote well

I said "damnation of CAREER" and you are talking about character.

You really need that sleep, you sound like you're close to a cardiac arrest. Except you lost money for this game, it's really not that deep.

We were never in control of that match.
TheGoodJoe:


You do not make changes like that. When Tunisia scored, the commentator said against the run of play. We were working on breaking the organization of the defense of the Tunisians before the goal came in.

No coach will make an early change when his team is in control of the game.

Dude chill, he can learn a lesson from this and improve. Even Ikeme at 22 wasn't exceptional and was constantly shipped out on loan to league 1 and league 2 clubs in England. Also top class goalkeepers have days when they are comical from time to time and this should be a learning point to the coaching crew to scout for more players, not just goalkeepers. So many carpenters were present in this team that went to Afcon.
If this was a first time offense, no problem but this guy has been showing absolute lack of goalkeeping talent. It's just like he was picked to play in goal because he was tall, not because he was any good in catching a football.

The goal was sudden.

The talk no gbam, na emotion-laden talk

What emotion? If you don’t have anything to say to counter my point, it’s better you stay off my mention instead of subtle jab at me.

I asked, can substitution be made in the first half or before the second half commenced? Yes or No? Simple

Exactly

We were declining so fast, we did not even look like we stood a chance against poor teams, and somebody is saying Rohr was better.

How?

Being a realist does not mean that I'd become negative. Professionally one is trained to see loop holes, faults and flaws but balance demands that one does not stay negative. It's the mindset I want to understand, you come in when we lose and have a good laugh. Then stay away when we win. It's not the SE that is the target. It is we, fans of the SE whose joy he despises. I like how Icon4s puts it: it is his failure. Kpom

Negativity can be a very big problem especially when it becomes part and parcel of someone. You dare not take your dreams and visions to such people. They will kill it.

Remember people, always curb your enthusiasm

Football isn't 1+1. A wounded Lion is very dangerous when cornered Learn that about the Tunisians.

And take your L in peace. Insulting me or others with varied opinions won't change a damn thing. SE don loose be say Dem don loose

As usual, I'll be watching from the Shadows

And lest I forget, stop drooling over fine boys. Especially if that person is an outfield player for the SE. It may backfire. grin cheesy

Do curb your failures in life cos if you succeed you'd see less of the need to tell people to curb their enthusiasm.

In football there's always support.. it depends on whether the player uses the support..

when you say support what do you mean

when I say support I mean players to pass to...

Exactly! Players to pass to but with many options. That was lacking in the first half.

In this case, NO.

A very resounding NO

The only reason you are saying this now, is because we conceded early and eventually lost. So, clearly, it is not even a logical statement.

Eguavoen coming out in the open to tell us how he lost sleep drafting the 28 man list makes it look like he might not win the AFCON.

I have seen this kind of behaviour more in losers.

I pray he meets people that can help change his thinking and approach.
I pray we lift the AFCON trophy.

My criticism of Eguavoen started with this.

Nigeria needs a quality goal keeper urgently. We are tired of fine boys who are more active on social media than on the pitch.

What pains me is that this appears to be their second team after 12 of them contacted COVID-19 and they perfectly read our game against Egypt very well.

I know he's at fault for the goal we conceded but then, he's been first choice goalkeeper at his club for 2 seasons now and he still has a long way to go to improve.
Uzoho is just slightly better than him and he too is not in Enyeama or Ikeme's class.
Like I said the coaching crew need to do intensive scouting for quality players in every department.
We can't afford to be going to tournaments with a first 11/15 and 8 carpenters.

I agree with you without any reservation. That Alloy Agu is a scam.

He should be relived of that job. He wasn’t a good keeper in his days then how can he discover talents?

Dude is our major problem. The same way keeper messed us up in the last tournament is the same way we were messed up today.
If Yobo is is the team already,then they should get Ejide and Enyeama to help find great GKs to me. These things seem like rocket science to NFF peeps sha.

I heard this outsmarting from the panel and I asked someone a question? How smart were they? We had loads of chances to take the game. Eguavoen actually outsmarted them, not the other way around. Even with a man down, we kept creating chances. We were just unfortunate. I think the Tunisian's are getting more praise than they deserve.

Congratulations they won but they were totally outplayed as far as I am concerned.
in the sense that they saw a chance took it and got a goal, albeit cheap. Yes, outsmarted. We weren't smart with our dominance. So I can't call that outsmarting.
