Thank you very much... Uzoho might not be an Enyeama but he is very decent and has played in the big stage (world cup) as well

Naija just Bleep up when dem replace uzoho with okoye as first choice (just like that)

[b]That Uzoho guy hasnt made any goal keeper error that I know of for the super eagles [/b]and he exudes confidence but Nigeria in their infinite wisdom decided to bench him 4 an inexperienced, untested and young Okoye

Who does that?

Ghana's pattern against Nigeria has always been defend and hit on counter attack

You are absolutely right bro the present Ghana squad can't score three goals in a game and lastly since 2000 till date Ghana have not defeated super Eagles with a local coach on board.

I see super eagles triumphing.
do you mean Ghana have not used a local coach to beat us?

ike shorunmu was a fine and quality keeper for nigeria

Compared to many others that came before him or enyeama, he wasn't, I would even rate Carl ikeme higher but we didn't see enough of Carl.

I liked that you didn't add Ike shorounmu, because I never liked the guy. You must have assurance that a keeper should save your blushes often. But with okoye and uzoho at the present level they are operating, I can't ever have hope in us winning any tournament. Just a single mistake is all it takes and everything comes undone

I did not watch much of Shorunmu but I can tell you that he produced one of the best goalkeeping performances, if not the best goalkeeping performance in Nigerian National team football. That was against Germany. It was a masterclass. I think it had to do with the coming of age thing.

If Shorunmu did not injure before France 98, I believe we would have gone to the Quarter fianals.

Why does the Ghanian coaches feel confident about beating us? Because they think they have the tactics to beat us. They are relying on what they saw in AFCON. There is a reason why the very first thing Amuneke did in training is make the boys focus on operating in tight spaces.
I am happy Amuneke is in the crew. If Ghana is banking on our weaknesses, we have an answer already. With Amunke in the mix, we will be unpredictable. Of course, there is no secret that we have lethal forwards. But our defense will be stronger than expected.

based on what criteria? If we're going with 442, Sadiq and Osimehn will be a good pairing...Sadiq playmaking ability, dropping deep, his height and even his goal threat will complement Osimehn. Ighalo is just like Osimehn,they both can't play together... Nacho doesn't really roam

You have not watched Iheanacho recently. One thing Iheanacho does very well is roaming and creating passing lanes for his teammates. He is now good at it.

My preferred formation is actually a 3-5-2 with Aina and Zaidu as wingbacks...this will take the Ghanaians by surprise but it means our wide forwards will be on the bench which might not appeal to a coach that emphasizes wing play. The 4-2-3-1 is more conservative than Eguavoen's 4-4-2 but I think it gives the team more balance especially in the midfield.

Em, If you are playing 3-5-2, you can play two top strikers and the full-backs will provide crosses for them. However, not my preferred setup.

scared ? Really ? No matter how strong a nigerian team is or how rubbish a ghanaian team is at a time, playing nigeria is motivation enough... The thought of nigeria not playing in qatar is more scary so when i say you guys are scared im very right about it

This is why I am happy we have Amuneke.

So as you nigerians have packed plenty forwards for this game, who is will defend for u ? Even look at ur goalkeeper-one shot one goal.... Worst part will be nigeria not scoring a single goal with their 12 forwards

TheSuperNerd:
I agree with you. Iheanacho shouldn't start as our Middle game dynamics will suffer some deficiencies but indeed his technique when striking a ball or crossing it, is up there with some of the best.


I will pick Iheanacho to start in an attacking pair with Osimhen. I say we keep it basic but Eguavoen and Amunike will call the shots on this.

I say a basic 4-4-2, where most players understand the tactical demands.

Iheanacho has redefined himself recently and has become what I term a ball-playing creative forward. He now plays more as a 10 than a forward and gives the team fluidity.

I think Iheanacho and Osimhen stand as the surest picks to start. Iheanacho's play will surely benefit Osimhen and I see the coaching crew noticing Nacho's tactical playing improvement.

Beyond the tactics, I hope we have a team psychologist...derbies are emotionally charged games...we need proper game management, no need for rash tackles or brash decisions. Let's not risk getting a red card.
