Same way voting arrogant and selfish politicians negatively affect Nigeria.. calling up arrogant and selfish players also negatively affects the team..

Goke7:


And you not tired of wasting money on foreign based players who can't bring anything to the table? e never do una

AndSunGorilla:

As pointed out already, if Dennis played the PK against the coach's instruction, he should face consequences for that. Secondly, Paseiro needs to know when to use his 4-4-2, definitely a double pivot would have been better against an opposition like Portugal. I am not convinced about Kelvin.

ChrisKels:
Aribo is not eagles material

TheLoneCitizen:
Those calling for Peseiro head after less than a year don't know Portugal have had Santos as coach since 2014.

This is despite Portugal having the best managerial line-up in the world.

TheLoneCitizen:
The coach directed someone take that penalty.
If Dennis went against that, he should be disciplined for that.
And Ekong should be stripped off captaincy.

TheSuperNerd:
When Match list came out: Folks were like "Sharp", "Omo, win or draw", "Solid lineup", "Ndidi, Iwobi, Aribo Midfield trio, Sharp!!!" etc...


Before Match finish: "Aribo is Minus one", "Simon is useless", "What is Akpoguma doing?", "Rubbish Dennis", "Disband the team",
"Arrant idiots"...

It's not even about form. It's his arrogance and body language. See how he fell off the remaining grace when God dash am. Chance at redemption and he just successfully hanged himself with his own rope

They made caricature of me for supporting Rohr.

oloriooko:
The struggle over the pk shows the indiscipline within the SE camp where the captain of the team doesn't have a say on the pitch
Pase had to point at his choice for pk but Dennis refused and went ahead to miss the kick
A good team should have it's choice pk player in open play but Dennis showed why he's on the decline in his career

AndSunGorilla:

The Messiah would have prevented all this One pass, seven goals!!!

Subzero047:
Osayi Samuel, Bassey, Iwobi, Lookman that's it.

charlesemeka85:
you say 442 against this Portuguese team? The best would hv been 3 in the back then load the midfield with more bodies

charlesemeka85:
Dennis has rotten attitude. The same reason club Brugge and koln dumped him

TheLoneCitizen:
Onuachu's best game for Super Eagles. Played with confidence for first time.

TheSuperNerd:
Super Eagles First Half Stats:


Iwobi is the only midfielder who has created a chance in this game. The one he sent into Aribo's path after Aribo's bursting run and 1-2 with Iwobi.

Ndidi has not registered even a pass into the final third.

Aribo has registered just one pass into the final third and ZERO CHANCES CREATED.

Of the 3 midfielders, Iwobi has made the most passes (20).
Aribo has 12 and Ndidi, 12.

Aribo and Iwobi have both taken turns to high press the Portuguese backline alongside Moffi. That is one point to note as we are obviously playing with a front two and defending with a back 5.


Ladies and Gentlemen, behold the Best Midfield 3 you all wanted to field.

It is well.

hatakekakashi:
Uzoho looked calm on the ball

TheSuperNerd:
Since landing in Portugal, he has never left. He is languishing somewhere in the lower tiers of Portuguese football. Never made it to top flight football.

Subzero047:
Osayi Samuel, Bassey, Iwobi, Lookman that's it.

Samueltemi337:
The same Rohr that bottled a 4 goal lead against Sierra Leone

AndSunGorilla:

The Messiah would have prevented all this One pass, seven goals!!!

Fotosify:
Osayi-Samuel is the ONLY standout player. The guy is fast and solid. Aina's position is threatened, already!

AndSunGorilla:

Baba, I dey condemn the 4-4-2 for today sir. At least a 4-3-3 is what I meant.

Samueltemi337:
All these ones calling Rohr sef


which Rohr


Rohr that couldn't beat CAR or Cape Verde

zuchyblink:
Our biggest defeat in 24 years
