Deltamani:Simple! Inclusion. That's all. It will be highly delusional of me to want them to be outright starters at this World cup even if that is not such a big deal seeing the number of starters from age grade players so far. I'm even taking this stance more cos of that time excuse we've been using since 18th century. Sometimes, these newbies have better confidence than some starters.(Abiodun has proven that) But inclusion. They were supposed to be here. But as i said, selection headache btw two elephants can't make them considered one bit. |

Deltamani:They are the same level.. it's the same way people on this thread were denigrating Abiodun and Demehin inclusion in the starting 11 but they ended up been the best players on the field. Without Abiodun and Demehin Super Falcons would have lost that match by at least 3 goals. The energy Abiodun and Demehin brought to the midfield and defense is also needed in attack and the only young attacker available that can bring that energy is Gift Monday. The only problem the SF have in attack is Onumonu because she's too slow. Gift Monday, Kanu, Ajibade, Ajakaye, Sebastian or any other fast player would done a better job than Onumonu. Linda Caicedo plays like Flourish Sebastian while Gift Monday, Ajakaye and Ajibade are better footballers than Linda Caicedo.. Only Gift Monday speed almost gave Morroco heart attack. Slow attackers like Oparanozie and Onumonu are always letting important goal scoring chances waste. in the last world cup, Oparanozie couldn't tap in a cross from Ajibade due to her slow pace. In this world cup, Onumonu slow pace is killing super Falcons counter attacks.. If Messi had Onuachu's speed when he was younger would he have been the best player in the world? You don't see them as been on the same level because they are Nigerians, you should remove such thinking from your mind. Thank goodness players like Osimhen, Chukwueze, Orban, Boniface, Awoniyi, Moffi, Oshoala are changing the narrative. |

Deltamani:If there is one player we should go for it is her. |
| Re: Nigeria Female National Teams' Thread by Jojodjo: 5:13pm On Jul 25, 2023 |
Is it the same Onumonu that brought some spark to our attack ? Demehin that was shaky suddenly becomes prime Maldini to have prevented three goals indirectly . You make emphasis on speed; what's pace without technicality? No disrespect but I take it that you spew things that aren't valid or you probably have a different view from what's glaring as the truth. If it's intentional, fine but if it's not you'd need to rethink your points. Lastly, in recent time, it's an error to compare Ajibade to Caicedo..... codemaniacs: |

daveP:There is something you left out. We shouldn't do this because other teams are doing same. Quality should come first. Deborah Abiodun is an example. The coach felt she can be a stopgap till Ayinde comes back and she was picked. We're lacking numbers at the back which made it easy to pick Tosin and Rofiat who are already pros. You think if we have an exceptional forward among the U17 and U20 sets, we wouldn't pick her? Flourish is good but still raw. Physically, she is not there yet. As for Ajakaiye, she is good but not there yet at all. All she has is raw pace. Her decision making and finishing is poor currently. There are also Esther, Bello, and Idoko. With time, these girls will develop and they will get their chances. |

daveP:Inclusion? at the expense of who? For a friendly tours, I may agree. But for a World cup? No please. We are not running charity slots in super falcons. |

Jojodjo:Demehin's 1st World Cup match so yes she should be shaky and despite that shakiness she was the best CB and in the right position to clear passes and crosses.. If Onumonu had speed she would have cut into the box and placed the ball properly into the net... she was already past the defender, but due to her lack of speed she had to take the shot quickly. I didn't compare them I only mentioned Ajibade's name due to pace... Ajibade is older and better than Linda Caicedo they can't be compared, its Ajakaye and Caicedo that can be compared but even at that Ajakaye is better. You don't tell people to rethink their points and never ever say "no disrespect" when you want to intentionally disrespect someone... If you want to disrespect someone then disrespect the person there's no need for a preamble. |

🇮🇪Abbie Larkin believes Ireland can win their remaining matches against Canada and Nigeria: “We can get six points against Canada and Nigeria. We have a really good squad,” she said on talkSPORT. “We’ll put Canada under pressure and hopefully finish our chances.”

PDPGuy:Don’t think sooooo Oparanozie is just returning to fitness.. Ajibade —— Onumonu —— Esther Uchenna Kanu as Super Sub for Esther, Franny Ordega, Monday Gift and Oparanozie to come in.. |

mostob:All fine. But the reality is even if we see players talented than the ones I've been hammering, that mentality is still there. We know it is a serious Nigerian thing. We all know. Shebi this man even fought to include her name, else she won't be here. But we move. We have to drop that mentality across all our teams. It's not helping. The excuse given to back it up as well. Sidenote: so our world cup Goals vs conceded is triple inferior? If 63 is GA and -43 is GD......that means na only 20goals we don score in 8Appearances(32years)!!! Yeh!!! My chest!!!!! Big inference then.

Deltamani:This makes more sense. For me either of Esther or Kanu works. Kanu needs to be made to work on her defensive responsibilities. She can be a liability defensively. |

Deltamani:Are you the team's physician? |
| Re: Nigeria Female National Teams' Thread by Idiko1: 7:31pm On Jul 25, 2023 |
Kibbs:A stream of thought typical of backwater dwellers. Countries of substance fielded 16-year-old players to represent them during the current female world cup. |
| Re: Nigeria Female National Teams' Thread by Idiko1: 7:38pm On Jul 25, 2023 |
Deltamani:Ayinde is an accident bound to happen, period. Field her at your own peril. She is good for stoppage times. |
| Re: Nigeria Female National Teams' Thread by Idiko1: 7:48pm On Jul 25, 2023 |
Deltamani:Monday Gift is construct of Nigerian skewed idiosyncrasy. |
| Re: Nigeria Female National Teams' Thread by Idiko1: 7:58pm On Jul 25, 2023 |
Deltamani:How on earth would you know the answer to your question when Sabastine and Ajakaye are not futured as did Linda Caicedo? Esther Onyenezide can shoulder up with Linda Caicedo if she had been given the opportunity. |

mostob:Nigerians tend to be sentimental when it comes to youth players.. I recall seeing comments about the last batch of u-17 boys being better than the super eagles because they played some food football... Lol Ajakiaye and Flourish are talented players that still need time to develop. Especially with respect to their decision making on the ball .. if there's any player in the cadet team I would pick aside the trio of Abiodun, Imuran and Demehin, it would be Esther Onyenezide because of her creativity... |

codemaniacs:Were you really serious when you typed this bro? Even the Ajibade I've watched in the last two to three games she played for Nigeria can't be seriously compared to Caicedo. Not for now. |
| Re: Nigeria Female National Teams' Thread by Danielnino00(m): 8:36pm On Jul 25, 2023 |
I no too understand this world cup fixtures... Group C games will be played tomorrow earlier than group B's... |
| Re: Nigeria Female National Teams' Thread by BankyGee(m): 8:42pm On Jul 25, 2023 |
codemaniacs:Bro, I'm a big lover and fan of Ajakaye, but guy stop! This is disrespect to Linda Caicedo I swear. Ajakaye that is not even really good in front of goal? She just has speed for now, while Linda Caicedo has speed, tricks and crazy finishing ability! Scored U17WWC, U20WWC, second game for Real Madrid Women and now Senior Women's World Cup! Please let's know what we're typing on this thread sometimes o before mods ban person for unlawful comparison 😂✍🏾 |

BankyGee:If Ajibade wasn't good she won't be playing for Athletico Madrid. Ajibade is better... Its colonial mentality to speak negatively about your fellow hard working countrymen and women. |
