Wow! Nice suggestion!

Kog45:
Oga no be initial gra gra o…it seems the gap is no longer wide o as before,initially I thought it was wide but with results coming outs the smaller teams no send o

jihday:
if you make excuses for Oliseh I can also make excuses for Gbaseiro. P.S: I’m not really convinced by Cisse

Marjoribanks:
My brother! Are they ready to clear more than a year salary? You can't suspend the person you are owning.
This is entirely different from govt-civil servant slave contract! Paserio has the right to seek greener pastures!

AndSunGorilla:

Thought you are now retired from this thread, retirement never start?

Nomyth:


If sacking pasero will be difficult because of financial constraints , then why not suspend him under the guise that he applied for another job while still contracted to the NFF.

A local coach should be gotten in the interim to prosecute AFCON for us.

I'm really not a big fan of local coaches, but seeing that our local coaches couldn't have performed worse than what pasero had churned out so far, it's choosing a lesser evil.

Joebie:
my brother, you sabi comprehend well well? Read my original comment.

Meliforme:
Anyone coming out to say that Iwobi is poor at long passing, has more to know about the Super Eagles midfield and midfielders.

In the match against Saudi Arabia Iwobi recorded 5/6 accurate long balls, the same as Ndidi.
In the match against Guinea Bissau Iwobi recorded 6/10 accurate long balls.

How does the aforementioned stats represent a player poor at long balls.

While he may not be the best at it because of the likes of Kelechi Nwakali, he is certainly not poor at it.

Iwobi is a complete midfielder, meaning he can dorn the DM, CM and AM roles satisfactorily.

femianski:

It wasn't a 4:4 draw. We won 4:3 in extra time

Joebie:
Reminds me of our 4-4 draw with Sierra Leone under Rorh

Kog45:
Are you saying this with Peseiro as coach or who

Marjoribanks:
Ye/Nay

Elder Kog, Peseiro ke? that palm wine tapper certainly chose the wrong career.

This Brazil vs Argentina Game is super embarassing and terrifying. Smh. When was the last time a CAF game had such violence?

caprikon:


Nothing new ....South American football is very physical and sometimes violent...I think the more reason they keep having the upper hand over African teams is their combination of skill and physicality gives them an edge most of the time.

So far in the super eagles, Moffi and Awoniyi do not strike me as reliable strikers. They really haven't proven much for me to have that much faith in them to lead the lines in the absence of Osimhen. They really have to sit up with Akor and Durosimi knocking on the door.


Boniface too needs to sit up.

Check out the famous win against Morocco in CHAN 2014. Beautiful and perfectly executed goals.

My perfect sketch of my ideal Eagles team under a new coach at AFCON, it's a rough set up that reflects the players we need going forward.
GKs
Jonathan Rasheed/Arthur Okonkwo/ Stanley Nwabili

Defence

Zaidu
Igoh Ogbu
Omeruo OR Ajayi
Jordan Torunarigha
Gabriel Osho
Aina
Bruno

Midfield:

Kelechi Nwakali
Ifeanyi Matthew/ Michael Folorunsho
Alhassan Yusuf
Ndidi
Iwobi
One U20 player (maybe either of Eletu, Akinsanmiro or Tochukwu Nnadi).

Forwards:

Osimhen
Akor Adams
Gift Orban
Kelechi Iheanacho
Simon Moses
Boniface
Lookman OR Tella (want to see more of him under a REAL coach).

My first XI will come from the players listed above, since CAF expanded the AFCON squad list to 27 so new players will definitely be called up.

Bench:

Chukwueze
Awoniyi
Bassey
Moffi

Players to be dropped unless their club situation changes between now and January as far as playing time goes:

Joe Aribo
Uzoho
Umar Sadiq

27 players in total for the AFCON and a new coach
