There is one thing I usually refrain from when playing football- blaming or shouting at my teammates. Because of when me too go f""k up grin grin

One big reason for the togetherness in that Argentina squad is due to Messi. You will never find him shouting. He would let his action speak rather. That's why most of them said they would be willing to 'die' for him on the pitch.

Osimehn needs to learn something from this. We know say you get passion and you wan win but shouting at your teammate no go ever work.

Man was spoiling many moves with useless offsides. The couple of time wey him get ball, na rubbish em play.

We know the team set up is not good enough but try dey respect your fellow mate.

Over two legs we scored just ONE goal and it was via a PK despite inviting one million strikers some of whom are among the best across Europe...what does that tell you? we NEED midfielders especially creative ones! going forward every Nigerian team list MUST have at least 6 midfielders (2 CAMs, 2 DMs and 2 box-2-box mids). We don't need an overload of strikers, just invite 2 CFs and 4 wingers. I'm not even a coach but it doesn't take rocket science to know how to tactically set up a team.

This team plays like they donโ€™t watch each other at their club side because everyone that watches osimehn knows how useful he is at heading. The wise thing that our coach needs to do is to inform our players to be crossing the ball to osimehn but instead wingers and defenders just want to dribble. Bassey is really good at crossing maybe itโ€™s time to play bassey at LB

Wait wait wait wait oooooo... SOOOOOOO if Osayi no just drive into the Bissau box drawing that foul, we for no score today?

2 games vs Bissau and no open play goals.

Yet we yanshed them at the Afcon with a different side and without the need for penalties.

Heeeiiiii... what the Super Eagles have been reduced to now is just shambolic to put it mildly.

But seriously, just a penalty goal in 180mins+?? Seriously Against Freaking Bissau!!!! Ahhhh


Our football now is....
ah na you start am o.. if bandlarge continue with "osimhen can't score a single goal in 180mins vs guinea bissau". No complain oh ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚

These were the conversation that ensued between me and BannedLarge, where i told him the best CB's we have now.

BannedLarge:


Ajax can afford to play at at Lb but we canโ€™t because he is our best available CB

Meliforme:


He is not

BannedLarge:


If he isnโ€™t presently our best CB then who is If dem born you well mention balogun, Akpoguma, ekong, awaziem or semi ajayi. Tell us who is presently our best CBโ€ฆ. The problem with Nigerians is that, we exaggerate our players ability and always believe that, there are world class players at our disposal

Meliforme:


Awaziem, Balogun, Omeruo.

I don't come about these conclusions out of nowhere.

Samuel Chukwueze had a frustrating game especially in certain phases of plays which we would never forget but he also created the most chances today.

Yep. Surprise Surprise. 4 chances created by Chukwueze alone. No one created more.

Frank Onyeka may not be the ball playing pearl I want him to be to upgrade our middle game playing dynamics but he recorded more recoveries today than anyone. He had 10.


Top 5 Players with Most Recoveries for Nigeria today.

Frank Onyeka - 10

Alex Iwobi - 7

Ken Omeruo - 7

Osayi-Samuel- 7

Samuel Chukwueze - 6



Notable mentions: Osimhen as a CF still recorded 5 recoveries. Shows how much effort he put in ensuring we regain and initiate possession.
Sanusi also had 5.

Chukwueze is a big fuul
Osi throws tantrums indicated he's not a mature player yet
Uzoho is a massive minus one
Osai is the best player on the pitch today
Simon is unimpressive
Paseiro is not a professional coach I can boldly say dude na fashion model
I no sure say the guy na coach sef. You go don know with his undersized blouse wey em dey call shirt. Maybe na one Portuguese bricklayer Dem package as coach for us.

Please how did Guinea Bissau play all game with 11 men? Those guys suppose to be playing rugby not football! IMo!
African team need to do better with pitch! Ball bouncing while in play how do you expect a professional player to shoot on target. It is shameful that our players will be silently praying to play their remaining matches in Morocco! Stvpid pitch, stvpid officiating stvpid stadium!

I don't think any of our srikers can complain about lack of chances. The problem was not the midfield, unless you did not watch the match. Moffi, Osimhen and Chukwueze missed nothing less than two clear cut chances each.

Was I the only one who noticed a moment where it looked like Osimhen was criticizing Zaidu but Zaidu wasn't having it at all? He spoke back at Osimhen in an equally aggressive manner and Osimhen had to walk away grin grin

It was just before the break in transmission.

Who did the red give yellow card from our bench again? I hope it's not him?


All those dramatics is too show he knows what he's doing. Sadly, we've seen right through him enough. Rohr didn't even neeed shout at these guys sef.


Guy just tour Qatar and friendlies around the world for nothing.


Secondly, if he as manager can't curb those useless nagging between the guys, then he's failed.
