Jesus Christ he can you create dangerous chances when you can’t dribble

Nobody can cross except AINA

Look at our chances kick and follow no flair, no run of play no nothing

We have luck on our side and I’m happy for it
Kick and follow was what produced Simon's one on one too abi

*Our frontline turns our weakling. Coaches can work on it as the tournament progresses.
*Omerou deserves a starting x
*Onyedika can stabilize our defensive midfield better that other options.
*Chukwueze should be benched pls.
*Aribo can play but not with thw iconic jersey #10.
*Nwabali has been tested. Still has a long way but gives confidence and hope.
*We are struggling because this formation is being experimented on the course of the tournament but we will surely get better with it.

All win na win. cheesy grin. Since Stephen Keshi, Nigeria has not been convincing in any tournament. Who knows, maybe we win this with at most a goal per game. cheesy
Are you sure you watched 2013 AFCON?

We did worse than this in 2013 AFCON Group stage

We have wingers who doesn't understand basic football principles.

Don't know when to pass, where to pass, when to shoot nor when not to shoot. Pathetic.

We have midfielders who can't press, run and shoot.

We have a number 9 who is having a beef with luck.

Only the defense and the goalkeeper are above average!

This team lacks the physicality and technique to control a game.

Pathetic team!

Everyone is expecting too much from this team. They have exceeded expectations. One thing is obvious. Looks like they do not understand each other.

this is the reason why I've been saying that we do not need 4 wingers in the squad.. We do not have good wingers.. We have good strikers that can also play from the wings.. We needed more of our CFs in this squad. The wingers hardly do the basic things wingers should do.


Tell me the strikers that can play wing please ❓
Re: "The Super Eagles Thread: The Road To AFCON 2025 And 2026 World Cup by Ihenzy(m): 8:12pm On Jan 22
Ighalo remains our best striker in recent times.
No one comes close.

no excuses bruv, we were poor, our boys are not showing enough zeal, just one shot on target, haba
Zeal? I beg to differ. There was no languid ball play in any of the 3 matches.

Na zeal make Aina no fit hit shot at post? Or Na zeal make Simon lose one on one

minfelix:
But wait oo, i want to understand something, why Equatorial guinea draw with us..if they can actually score 8goals in 2matches…why was our scoring opportunity against them more than theirs in that first game?

Because SE creates chances but are been sentimental towards Osimhen, Simon and Chukwueze..

Remove Osimhen or play him on Chukwueze's wing and play Moffi as the main striker while Lookman plays Simon's Wing.

SE needs an Asisat Oshoala kind of striker.

Aside Simon 1 dribble name anything else

You saw the kind of chance that 1 dribble created
He can cross, pass, shoot and still dribble after beating his man

That’s why mbappe and them Neymar get paid the big Buck wingers are key

Having Iwobi/Aribo as an AM is a travesty!

This is one of the worst Super Eagles team in living memory!

We were just outplayed by GNB second 11. Wow!
Aribo is nowhere near Iwobi whenever midfield shows is being discussed, Iwobi is ahead. We could have fared better if Iwobi started the game.

All I'd just say is that when results don't show it is as if you no sabi.

I can only pray for results for all the efforts

If I keep naming dangerous chances you'd keep moving goalposts so no need.

I noticed terrible attitude from our forwards for the times Osimhen turns provider-there's no one attacking the box. Terrible. Really terrible.

A number 9 who the coaches don't want to sub off or move to wings or SS.

If Uzoho was the one in GK then SE won't have qualified from the group.

we can keep defending this team but with one shot on target each in two consecutive matches, this is not an improvement

The use of 2 midfielders by the coach greatly affects players performance fielded in midfield. Iwobi struggled against CIV too.

There was one header Osimhen fluffed it's placing. That thing touched me in bones!

We are lucky to be winning kẹ?
