keshi was just fortunate as a coach during his time with the super eagles and we all know how it ended when he ran out luck which resulted to not qualifying for back to back afcon

The only potent strikers he took to the competition of which latter was forced on him was emenike and Osaze

nelszx:
Despite our poor outing (not poor by my standards), Nigeria will move to 3rd in Africa (to be released tomorrow) only behind Africa champions Senegal and Morocco. Here's how the teams will line up
Senegal - 18th
Morocco - 25th
Nigeria - 32nd
Egypt - 34th
Tunisia - 36th
Cameroon - 38th
Algeria - 43rd
Mali - 48th
CIV - 51st
B/Faso - 56th
Ghana - 61st

Parrot69:

Keshi was a Big fraud. I remember one game (was it against Sudan??) He couldn’t win made fans troop into the pitch, only for the officials to call for security backup.
They wanted to lynch him. Seriously

komekn:


The current AFCON Golden boot winner plays in the same league as Ighalo the only difference Ighalo has scored more goals than Aboubakar. Food for thought to the objective.

Sadiq is an embarrassment to the SE and cannot even clean Ighalo boots. He is tall without aerial be domination has no Physicality and keeps fallling be down for no apparent reason, always diving .

Osimhen is faster than Ighalo that's all NOTHING else is he clearly better than Ighalo at. When it comes to Physicality and hold up play as well as technical play Ighalo is superior.

Dessers is not on Ighalo level, 17 games and 4 goals in the Eredivisie this season is not outstanding. Awoniyi is just starting not better than Ighalo, Onuachu is a good proposition but he is not better than Ighalo.

There is no Favouritism for Ighalo rather unjustified discrimination.

Victor Osimehn should just do the needful and avoid injury and good Balogun is back,possibly we will have Ighalo too cos the match na gidigbo (Bullmastif vs Rotweller),hope to see Etebo in the squad....my major concern is goalkeeping.

Parrot69:

Ighalo is doing well in Hilal, they will face Chelsea in FIFA Club World Cup Today.

TFLASHOGEE:
many submission dey make me laugh here Godwin Enakhena talk something about aloy agu yesterday about people blaming him for our poor goalie and he was like aloy agu is just in that position just for figure Head he has the position but doesn't have the power to function as his only duty is to train with any goalie that shows up to camp

caprikon:



I expect Eguavoen and his technical crew to tweak his predictable tactical approach from the last AFCON to surprise the Ghanaians.

I wish to see Osimhen, Etebo, Dennis and Ighalo return for the tie while underperformers at AFCON like Chukwueze and Okoye shouldn't be on the starting list. Not expecting too many new faces because the time is really short.

caprikon:


Evolution of modern tactics has somewhat reduced the need to have a playmaker.

An effective high press can create far more chances than a single AM would.
The SE midfield lacks a genuine CM/CAM who can dictate the play with intelligent passing , positioning and movement.
We have a fair number of good dribblers already.

caprikon:


You are shaking tables��. Watch your back.
I am actually indifferent to Nwakali but I'd glad if he eventually actualizes his potential.

Hardly heard reports questioning Ejaria's professionalism that's why it's surprising to me that he has remained in the championship.

do4luv14:



And that's what he need to show us what he had learned, what you and everyone of us should be concerned with is our goalkeeper trainer, Agu is not it

Joezinho:


Why should we, if i may ask ?

Mujtahida:

Abeg ooo. Like caprikon said for his own good and may I add for our own good, Okoye should not be in goal ooo.

We will be concerned with the goalie trainer after we qualify. Even that time will be a good time for Okoye to show us what he has learned. Abeg

komekn:


To those without eyes they think they can see but only darkness and unfortunately they think that everyone else has no eyes like them.

There is no other second tier in the whole of Europe that players move to top leagues as much as the Championship.

The EPL is the best most competitive league in world, that being the case , we can make an informed projection to say the Championship is better than leagues rated 8 and above ❓

Napoli has a top Midfielder on loan from a Champion side ,in the name of Anguissa.

Currently Spence 21 year old left back for Nottingham is wanted by the creme de la crème of Europe top clubs. So also is his team mate Johnson .

But of course to the blind it's an Ogbomosho akpa - Akpro league. The same league that our best Midfielder IMO was not able to have dominance with Stoke City.

Below a clip of Spence making Arsenal's Martinelli look ordinary, the same way this Championship club flogged Leicester city 4-1.

drDoom3:


We have one but continuously prefer pairing him with Ndidi as a double pivot instead of playing him where he is most effective.

mostob:
Heard Vitality will be terminating their contract with West Ham due to that Zouma's video.

Really laughable

M7even:
We would beat Ghana with the same players from AFCON. All that matters is tactics. Ghana will not integrate all the new players intended quickly before that game. We are better structured. If we are lucky we get an early goal and revert to counterattack. If the Ghanaian side isn't fighting hard enough, we can come out to play and dominate them. It is all tactics.

Every player has to be on their "A" game. I'm also worried about Osimhen he has been the darling boy but sometimes he can be so aggressive in the big game and pick up a redcard. I really fear this negative thought. But hopefully, he realizes he doesn't have to be involved with every play but just be clinical on that day. If you get one chance bury it. If you get two chances do the needful. I doubt that the new European-African coach of Ghana understands the nitty-gritty of African football. Yeah he coached a Reading side that used to play rough and hard back then, but how quickly he will be able to achieve that pattern with Ghana will be a huge deal

komekn:
I just watched Derby County managed by Wayne Rooney have just beaten Hull City 3-1.

What's interesting is the MOTM went to a 19 year old winger who scored , was simply electric and his name Festy Ebosele, was wanted by Everton but Rooney said capital NO.

He has been very good for Derby no surprise EPL clubs are looking at him.

He is of Nigerian origin although born in lreland.

nairalandankrah:
Arsenal and Tottenham going head to head for victor osimhen's signature... Only one of the both teams, will eventually get to sign him.

Papi85:
we have that in aribo just that he has been deployed so deep since making his debut for the team

drDoom3:
The gulf in quality between Al-Hilal and Chelsea is laughable. If every club in the Saudi league is at the level of Hilal, I can understand how Ighalo is stat-padding in that league. Imagine a CB trapping a ball nicely for Lukaku to finish from 5 yards.

While there may be a few exceptions, international football at the top level is not for a player of the quality of that league.

BascoVanVeli:
Ighalo might find it hard to score on this team ooo. That Salem guy is shooting every ball he sees.
