BankyGee:I don't think they have the talents again, they hardly qualify for youth tournaments, even the female teams ain't qualifying for AWFCON again. GFA still better than NFF in recruiting quality coaches; Claude Le Roy/ Herve Renard, Avram Grant, Chris Hughton. Addo, a local coach is well motivated and earning in dollars. I can say the problem is not coaching, but lack of talents.. The last group game will be very interesting; Ghana vs Niger Sudan vs Angola Niger will play for a win against Ghana and pray Angola should defeat Sudan.. I watched Angola yesterday, the team is fantastic. |

opes:if the coach is good, it would reflect in the team. Their performances during the last few years have been nothing to write about.utter dreadful performances. After missing 2018 wc, it took an uzoho howler for them to reach the last wc and they still served the nonsense they have been known for. It's not as if they are really lacking in talent like that. |

terzurum5:Terzurum5, been a long long while my able OP. You have become a sort of hidden legend in here but your name will be always tied to the beginning of this great thread. Since 2016, it's been going strong for 8yrs and counting now. Took over from another legend in Joseph1013, the forerunner. Nice to see you again passing by, Terzurum5. I greet you specially 🤝🏻🙌🏽👊🏽

My fantasy line-up against Rwanda. [color=#007700]From midfield to attack[/color]. [color=#007700]Ndidi, Onyedika, Boniface[/color]. [color=#007700]Lookman, Iwobi, Osimhen[/color]. [color=#007700]Lookman[/color] and [color=#007700]Iwobi[/color] to occupy the left and right wing respectively. [color=#007700]Boniface[/color] to play behind[color=#007700] Osimhen[/color] as an attacking midfielder and secondary striker. |

BankyGee:More "tearing the League facts" on Osimhen in Turkey Victor Osimhen is the first player in 10yrs since 2014/15 season to score or assist in his first 6 league games in the Turkish Super Lig.

Iwobi to the right here but at Fulham, he plays more from the left. But yes, his last 2 games saw him play from the right so to make this work in this fantasy setup, he is to be utilised just as effectively as we saw him used on the RW vs Crystal Palace last weekend. Boniface in the SS role is possible. He just has to keep it simple and only take the necessary risks where possible. Also, not too many touches to avoid being frequently dispossessed. Onyedika to sit deeper than Ndidi and orchestrate plays, receive from defence and transit vertically. Ndidi to bring his Leicester role to this setup. Roam, advance and break lines vertically to provide passing options in advanced areas. So yeah, a fine experimental fantasy setup. Let me add, one that I know Eguavoen will never try (Shock me).

Barring the result in the first half, Iheanacho was pretty solid in the first half, created some good chances. It was a right decision to start him. And I think he should either start or come in against Rwanda. The result in the first half have made some emotional people not to see his fantastic contributions in the game. |
| Re: "The Super Eagles Thread: The Road To AFCON 2027, 2028 And 2030 World Cup by TheSuperNerd(m): 11:44am On Nov 16, 2024 |
Iheanacho has always been a fine chance creator whether he is in form or not. He created a particular big chance I recall, yes... but his OTB work and how it affects our transition shapes is where the bulk of the problem lie. OTB - Off the ball. Moniter0: |

I agree with you on a coach relying heavily on Iwobi as being lazy. The lad needs serious competition in the creative dept. But hope you have contacted the best fit for your haram Yori Kati Football plan in Raphael Odogwu. Don't waste Time. 2025 is coming. elyte89: |

Thanks again Basco for always coming through with the highlights for those of us too busy or occupied to watch live. Nice play from Bruno probably his best performance in the SE so far. Osimhen's missed chance in the 1 half denied him a well deserved assist. With more performances like this I think he will have the LB position on lockdown. Probably needs to improve in the physical battles more still looks slightly lightweight to me. Aina and Bassey look seriously off colour defense wise. Need to do better especially for next years high pressure WC qualifiers. Attack wise Osimhen was the only consistent threat. Yes he missed a sitter but made up for it with his crucial goal towards the end. Honestly our other forwards need to come to the party so we don't turn into a mostly Osimhen and Inshallah team. S. Moses well done. I'm one of his biggest critics on these streets but he has become more reliable lately and understands his game better and how it impacts the team's performance. Hope Chukwueze is taking notes. Condolences to Nwabobo on the loss of his father. May God give him and his family comfort at this trying time. To his performance no sugarcoating it Stanley was largely at fault for the conceded goal. A mistake let's be honest we would have dragged Okoye and Uzoho centuries for. I guess Nwabali's consistent performances for the SE since his debut this year has(deservedly in my opinion) earned him some reprieve but he should watch it because someone is waiting in the wings if too many blunders become part of his game. Monday's game is for all intents and purposes a competitive friendly for us so I would like to see AE give the likes of Onyedika, Yusuf, Osho, Boniface/Sadiq etc a good run out. No need to stress Osimhen and Lookman we know their quality already. BascoVanVeli: |

Eguaveon stats as a coach 25 games 17 wins 4 draws 3 losses Very good stats For the first time I'm supporting a local coach... I hope he succeed this time. |

My man, I will be the most pissed if African football fans refer to our Super Eagles as "Osimhen and Inshallah" as our strategy just like Salah with Egypt. How we go get Incoming APOTY Lookman, Boniface, Iwobi, etc and you reduce us to "Osimhen and inshallah". I go too vex gan😡😡😡 chrisooblog: |

Why Super Eagles new boy Osho was replaced – Eguavoen https://scorenigeria.com.ng/wp-content/uploads/2024/11/gabriel-osho-eagles-training.jpg *Gabriel Osho - Eagles Training Coach Augustine Eguavoen has explained why Super Eagles debutant Gabriel Osho was hauled off after the first half against Benin in a 2025 AFCON in Abidjan Thursday night. AJ Auxerre central defender Osho was a surprise starter against Benin, but he was replaced at the restart by Club Brugge defensive midfielder Raphael Onyedika. Eguavoen has now explained the thinking behind this change. “Osho is a very good player, who I have been following, I even told him even before he came that in the absence of Semi Ajayi, he will start against Benin,” Eguavoen told Eagle7fm Sports Radio “He trained only once and then played. “He was substituted not because he was not playing well but because I reverted to a back four so as to get something from the game. “We started with 3-4-3, then changed to 4-3-3 and in the last 15, 20 minutes we changed to 4-4-2 with Victor Boniface joining Osimhen to give us more numbers inside the box.” Source: ScoreNigeria |
