I guess the fact you did not see a tribal dent in the post makes you a tribal goon. No apology though.
grin grin
Comprehension is really your problem.. nothing else.
The fact that you're the only one on this tribal table should tell you something.

Bayana with 6 different scorers
We have 5.


Vs Camrooun, Onguene, Ajara can be a big threat. Got movement. So we need to win that midfield battle from start. Want to see what Estelle vs Ordega/Onumonu will be like. Ajibade has no threat on her wing. I hope we don't injure any key player in this match.

If Toni doesn't start, can she at least come on as a winger this time?
Glory Ogbonna didn’t do well when she Came in for N Payne, Though N Payne didn’t venture forward much maybe because she was instructed to..

Tony Payne is for sure one of Randy first pick whenever he needs to name his Superfalcon first 11…

A Onguene and N Ajara Vs M Alozie and T Payne is going to be interesting… Ohale will be the one to mark the Physical M Abam who’s Alozie team mate at Houston Dash…

But I see Randy Playing a Backline of 3 CM with Payne and Alozie at Wing Back..

�UPDATE FROM BANYANA CAMP�

I was even thinking a back 3 would be better against Cameroon..Given the fact that Alozie and Payne are natural wingers, playing as wing backs will give them more freedom to bomb forward...
But the question is who plays LCB? Plumptree or Ebi?

Oga Basco, I know it's your preferred lineup but Nicole ahead of Alozie is just surprising. And I kinda think Gift is more comfortable on the RW than on the LW
To be Frank I don't trust her one on one defending against fast skillful wingers. Ivory Coast vs Nigeria is a prime example. Gabrielle Onguene is probably the best winger left in the competition.

Monday was on the right during the Aisha Buhari Cup and she did really well.

What did Glory Ogbonna do wrong?
Re: Nigeria Female National Teams' Thread by lovewins: 5:36pm On Jul 12, 2022
I think we are overthinking this Cameroon match really. I am more concerned about how Cameroon will do defensively than the "danger" they muster offensively.

They are not as lethal as we think upfront, they could only score 3 goals in the group stage while conceding only one. If we can get our attack right, they'll be dealt with.

Allrrriiiiggghhhtttt grin
I have the same reservation about Alozie too....I just thought there is no capable replacement. Nicole has bot really been playing much for us.

Yea... South Africa should be able to finish the job. I still think the covid talk is an hoax.... Maybe a tactic from them.

Hopefully Botswana should be able to match Morocco. I don't want us to play them yet.

I'm more worried about their physical tactic..they are too rough. Make Dem no go break leg

Let's give the girls some credit, they are though too. Come on we played Cote d'Ivoire and Ghana when we couldn't string 3 passes together and we won. Save Ashleigh, every other player on the team can hold their own.

Morocco will still use wuruwuru to scale through... I don't trust those north Africans..

They are already bringing their laser tag nonsense to the stadium! Imagine using lasers against women!! Bullsh*t!!

Nicole started 2 matches against Canada. She is definitely a capable replacement.

Other the Summer series when she was nutmegged twice, I can't recall seeing her get dribbled past. Secondly, she and Ebi both have the best sliding tackles in the team. Yes, you might say she overlaps, but remember that she is not a full back but rather a wing back who must contribute to attack. Her crosses too are accurate and she takes good shots.

Naturally she should playing as a winger but we have too many wingers and few formidable full backs.

Exactly!!! Alozie is far from being a problem, she's everyway an asset especially if the coach is smart enough to know who to play her with.

She was terrible at the back initially when she got that role, but she has since significantly improved defensively. The coach only needs to play someone who can cover for her, especially when she makes her offensive runs. So far though she hasn't been beaten on a one on one situation and that's something worth noting.

What did Glory Ogbonna do wrong?
To me Nicole Payne is a better fullback than Glory, I believe when she start playing pro she would get better and better..!

That’s not even a question..

Ohale—— Ebi—— Plumptre

Alozie has improved a lot, she will definitely hold her ground against any Winger she faces. I haven’t seen any of our opponents winger or forwards beat her in a 1V1 situation of recent..

Exactly. Chiwendu Alozie is the Falcon equivalent of Calvin Bassey in the Eagles.

Improvements like that don't happen overnight. Especially when u don't play the position at your club. South Africa didn't use the wings as much as Cameroon does so this is completely different.

Exactly why I said I don't want us to play them yet. North Africa are notable for all those wuruwuru tactics.

Swap Plumptre and Ohale. Plumptre is a defensive playmaker herself. She cannot be the one to cover Alozie. That's a disaster.
Re: Nigeria Female National Teams' Thread by daveP(m):
Germany vs Spain

2-0

Two shots by Germany all through the game, and they were goals. That sounds like some pages from the Men's team under Loew grin


I wish we can be that clinical. At least by half. No tension, no overdo, just waiting for the right moment but contributing to passing the back around and winning it back asap.

I think Ogbonna can still balance it, but we know who the better one is, especially with contribution to attack. I'd like to see her against a worthy opponent to know how composed she can be. That's if Randy wants to give her that chance. Ohale will come tops if it comes to Abam. That one is no match for Ohale. To ve truthful, they're the ones with jitters. But their only threat to our players are those rough tackles. I can comfortably predict a red for them

The Ivorycoast striker also dribbled her successfully though in the second leg.

That Tunisian team is useless as fvck, they can't even trap the ball, so I don't think the South African team has anything to fear.

Re: Nigeria Female National Teams' Thread by PDPGuy: 12:10am On Jul 13, 2022
I’ve watched snippets of the Euros, and I must say the Super Falcons have some way to go before being a genuine threat at the WC..

The confidence in possession and accuracy of most of the passes is something that is still a struggle for the SF
