This is the reason why I congratulated you on Ejuke moved to Sevilla.I know stats will start coming out,yes a good dribbler.

If you can used goal creation to rate Ejuke in la liga then why asking what is Fisayo doing in eagles cuz I saw him involved in Osimhen goal against Benin.

Fisayo has just 4 caps with a goal but to you he has no business with eagles.

Thegoodjoe gave you honest opinion on Fisayo.

Pls is there any difference between goal participation and goal creation cuz here Ejuke had no goal participation.
We have midfielders who have more to give us than we have in Fisayo.
I mentioned his fallings and gave more worthy options.

Goal participation or involvement implies that you are either the goalscorer or that you assisted the goal.
One can create a goalscoring chance without having the goal converted, in that case the player is accorded to having created a goal scoring chance or made a key pass even though the goal wasn't converted.

Ejuke has zero goal participation because none of the goalscoring chances he created was converted.

The art of time-wasting! While it may not be the most glamorous aspect of football, it's indeed a useful skill for goalkeepers to have, especially when their team is winning and wants to run down the clock....

Time-wasting techniques involves:

.⁠ ⁠Taking extra time to distribute the ball
⁠Delaying goal kicks and throw-outs
⁠Feigning injuries or cramp
⁠Engaging in conversations with the referee

it can be very effective , and the best way to manage a game tempo is to perfect this beautiful art .
not striking a balance is where i will fault Nwabali ,clever time management and blatant time-wasting, which can be seen as unsportsmanlike.
So, mastering the art of time-wasting, while staying within the bounds of fair play, can be a valuable asset for goalkeepers and their teams.

@Dlaw , please appreciate Nwabali for having this beautiful skill. make him team mate to vex, we like am like that .
You're saying crap! That isn't the point. Didn't you watch the match? Dude was wasting time as early as 60 minutes as though we were playing Man City or something.

but ,sincerely i didn't watch the match , only seen the highlights . if you have it , please post a link for the full match .



its because we drew the match , if we had won , i know your type . grin the same skill came in handy during the last AFCON , you dont condemn every act , have you taken your time to take a deeper look ? even Ekong can make a mistake ... the Ekong we are all praising now used to be a very average defender at a point in the SE.
Re: "The Super Eagles Thread: The Road To AFCON 2027, 2028 And 2030 World Cup by chrisooblog: 3:10pm On Sep 13, 2024
I slightly agree about KC he hasn't really started the season on fire. Disagree about dropping Boni and Awo because both of them are our only decent top 9 options for now after Osimhen. Moffi should have been in contention if not for his potential season ending injury.

Yusuf's place might be jeopardy if those our two young players in Getafe and Lens continue to improve steadily.

If AFCON qualification is wrapped up early then I wouldn't mind seeing Ebenezer and the young lad in Everton (if he's so inclined) being invited for the last fixtures.

Ejuke definitely deserves a recall.



Kog45:
Ha you want Ejuke dropped for Chuckwueze?you dey find Oga Meli trouble….Oga Meli triple are Nwakali,Ejuke and Chuckwueze just that Nwakali dey fall Meli hand o……honestly Ejuke deserves call up and there is no need dropping Chuckwueze……I think Iheanacho or Boniface/Awoniyi should pave way for Ejuke.

It's not about us winning. Like you said time wasting is a skill which Nwabali appears not to have. He's not subtle about it.

I haven't watched Fisayo for an extended period of time to properly assess him but 1 goal in 4 international games is very decent. From what I have seen a bit of and observed from people's comments he's a very forward looking midfielder who seems to be adding a fresh dimension to the SE attack.

We currently don't have a very obviously creative AM so I don't think we have those 'worthy options' you speak of. Iwobi for all his industry na manage we just dey manage am.

[quote author=Mujtahida post=131984674]No talk oo. It's his attitude. Read the report. He's been penalized at his club for it. That's different from when a goalkeeper kills time to manage a win for his team. Every sensible goalkeeper does that yet one cannot say that delaying is an attribute of all goalkeepers.

Anyway the coach has said that it will not repeat itself.

If we won that game nobody will say anything. We too Dey over do over analysis for naija. I watched Ruud Gulit one of the greatest midfielders saying the antics they display as players when they are under much pressure. It’s part of the game though irritating. The North Africans are masters of this nonsense all players on the pitch start rolling on the floor when hand or leg touch them. The Ivorians used same tactic for us during afcon final. Nobody holy for this thing jor

[quote author=Goke7 post=131986893][/quote]You don't get what he is trying to say.
You implore such antics if you are leading or drawing against a tough opponent towards the closing stage of the match and not against a weaker opponent you are already dominating from the early stage of the match as it was witnessed in the last game. We have a higher chance of winning the game, so why waste time and disrupt the energy and intensity of the game?

weaker opponent? you guys didn't watch how the Rwandans were looking for a late goal? Moreover, whenever your opponent has the ball, are they moving back toward their area or your end, I no understand una o. Have you seen the stats, the % possession was never far apart.

We only dominated in terms of shots on goal but never in possession of the ball

We were more threatening and had a better chance than them to score.
The point is for him to know when to apply such antics. There is not bad in applying it, just know when to do that and don't over do it or it. Finito

Because we didn't win, we feel it's a problem, make we all rest abeg. Before another agenda go start. Nwabali remains our number 1 for now. He's not the reason we could not score.

Nobody is against him, he is the best we have now.
We are only pointing areas he can get better, just as we analyse other outfield players. Simple.

I think he said the margin of the higher was not too much.

If I remember correctly, the possession was 51-49 in Nigeria's favor and that is actually close.

You say tiki what? Tiki taka is creative, spontaneous, artistry, beautiful? Chineke God.
Have not been following international conversation where people are crying that tiki taka has killed football and diminished creativity in the game? What is beautiful about running and passing? Is that like playing not table tennis with legs?

Hmmmm you can decry the inability of our players to string passes but abeg leave out the poison of tiki taka from naija football.

And then again, this stringing of passes is something that for me requires the players to spend at least a solid one or two weeks together.

Rewatch the game with Rwanda, especially the first half.
With hindsight; my substitutions would have been, iheanacho for chukwueze and Simon for lookman.
