Or do u suggest Bassey should be taken to wing role upfront. I will prefer him to either of chuks or simon to be honest

We need Bassey in defense. They should just tell them to cross the ball. Not everytime dribble and running

MetalJigsaw:
Never knew he was once a winger. But peseiro isn't playing him there

I remember him at Blackpool before he went to QPR and he played wing then.

Joebie:
That one when Jpes don reduce to nothing.

How? 🙄🙄🙄

Aina is graduate of the school of complete football.

He could play DM AM CM as well as both sides Wing and Wing back. His passing accuracy and football ⚽ intelligence is high.

Where is this school?

Joezinho:


If after 93 minutes of play in two games,  losing possession 23 times from 41 touches , completing just 52 percent of his passes, and his only highlight is the through pass to Osimhen, then he's not Super Eagles material!! 

Only Osimhen's aerial ability is enough for him to shine . Just be hoofing crosses to him in the box out of 3, one must enter. Go and Rewatch Morocco's game and see how they were lashing out aerial balls into the box 18 of their opponents.

We don't utilise this aspect of Osimhen’s game enough.
 

It doesn't remove anything from you to acknowledge you missed that pass in your reckoning of his game. This one come be like you de shift goal post.

Anyway, you're preaching to the choir. Crosses is underutilized in the SE. Agreed

Mujtahida:

Where is this school?

In West Boroughshire, England 😎

MetalJigsaw:

Osayi has the tenacity and athleticism to marshal the right wing. The earlier JPES starts playing Chuks from the bench, the better.

We cannot have a left footed right winger with poor techniques & Insha Allah moves. Someone that cannot complete a 1/1 on or cross..

has he ever played in any of the mentioned positions?

he was changed to a defender when he went to turkey.

Mujtahida:

All that I can say of Nwabali is that I like his character. Watched an interview where he said that he was not satisfied with his performance against CIV and I'm presently watching an interview in the clip with link supplied where one can see his determination. I like him. I hope he proves his mettle.


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WeicklLu7iU?si=F1RLu7dSyR4R_CB6

If he doesn't appreciate his performance against CIV, he is setting himself up for a bigger failure.

Wow!Aina and Osayi starting.

OGN says Peseiro hints..
it's just their guess work.

However, I think there is a chance that both can start with Aina playing LWB. Osayi as RWB.

Kog45:
Wow!Aina and Osayi starting.

There was a ball he parried to an onrushing CIV player.. That would have been costly. Besides that, he didn't put a glove wrong

Meliforme:

I was of the opinion that in the making of the AFCON squad, we didn't need 4 wingers considering Osayi is a natural winger. This would have given room for an extra CB or CF

Joezinho:


Bright Osayi will do better as a winger. At QPR, he was a skillful winger, very good dribbler , also great at tracking back..


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ksAZuHpiygg?si=A0RNDCef3v2pbW4P

Let Osayi and Iheanacho start. But let Iwobi be allowed to play his attacking role too. The absence of Ndidi has really reduced his advancing up front. Haba. Iwobi of all should not be inhibited this way now.

This is the reason why you'll be a very bad coach

Marjoribanks:
Back to 4-3-3!

Bassey/Zaidu out for Aribo.

Aribo will be the box to box role tomorrow.

Aina Omeruo Ekong Bassey

Onyeka Iwobi Aribo

Lookman Osimhen Iheanacho/Chukwueze.

Joebie:

Aribo still never impress me for africa football sha

Amedino99:

He analyse football with sentiments as long as you're british you can play anywhere on the field

Mujtahida:

He is not good with crosses. Good in playing ball on the ground

Wish Pasiero can try Osayi there instead it will make sense

Joebie:

We don't need an extra CB or CF.

Peseiro is just Rohr's identical twin tactically.

When playing "weaker" opposition, both men use 433 and play offensively with long passes from the center-backs used to locate the forwards and a generally positive approach.

Against "stronger" opposition, Rohr and Peseiro alike adopt a 3-4-3 formation with a pragmatic approach based on the "sit back and hit on the break" doctrine.

Neither manager has shown any willingness or ability to solve our midfielders' cohesion and passing deficiencies, choosing to bypass the midfield with the long balls instead.

In replacing Rohr with Peseiro, the NFF only sold their monkey to buy a dog🤷.

Game day expecting a positive result again.

Hope Osimhen and KC bring their goal scoring boots.

LET'S GO SUPER EAGLES

Joebie:

That our defence is stacked with versatile players who have proven they can play more than one position effectively..
Aina: RB, LB, RWB, LWB
Bassey: LB, CB, LWB
Awazeim: CB, RB
Osayi- RB, RW
Ajayi- CB, DM(Although he was terrible the last time he played there in the GWG)

List leaked already
Seems Ekong is injured
Knock from Ivory Coast game
4 - 3 - 3
So Onyedikachi & Moffi won’t see game time?
I’ve got a question
Is Onyeka enjoying his time as a 4 (DM)
Because I know he’s originally a box to box player
Hopefully the media asks Onyeka this
He did pretty well in the game against CIV
What’s Onyeka’s preferred position

Has he proven he can play attacking midfielder? Answer is NO!
