No. O!

South Africa's case from what I heard was bad too. I think we were to play at Uyo. (Not confirmed) but they landed at Port Harcourt after leaving South Africa late behind schedule. They landed late in the night and the airport was empty. Like Zilch. So they had to sleep in the airport and had to get clearance the next morning.

No alternate arrangement was made to assist them that night.

Note, not fully confirmed but that was what I picked up.

Na lie

🚨 Manchester United want to offer Joshua Zirkzee + €30M to Napoli in exchange for Victor Osimhen! 🤯

The Italian club are open to negotiations for the striker.

(Source: @mattinodinapoli)

Napoli would want more
Them fit ask for 50M

But then, ManUtd were told to come back in June
VO isn't leaving gala this season

Kai. One loss.

Even that draw with Benin made us drop points, all these countries are wayyyy below us in rankings, not to talk of loss. 😑😑

We have already seen what a fit and inform Bashiru brings. He can shoot when in or near the box but he is not a creative profile.

So, Bashiru is not the answer. Try again.

EEGA:
A fit and inform Bashiru seeing 70+ mins in the Europa league is the solution to our midfield dilemma.

Eguavoen needs to hold conversation with Lazio coach and Bashiru as regards playing time in his club side.

He is the only midfielder asides Onyedika that can score when our forwards are marked out for most parts of the game.

Bashiru we saw against Rwanda was not fully fit as he was still recovering from a knock that made him miss the Benin game.

He should be played just behind Osimhen or on the right side of the midfield not on the left like he was deployed against Rwanda.

Playing on the right side of the midfield enables him to shoot and come in with his stronger foot(left foot).

It's not just finding one who can give those line breaking passes but one who can also score when the forwards are finding it difficult to do so.

With what Nigerians played against Rwanda.. i don't think they fully mean business.. they missed a lot of goals.

Dominating only in terms of attendance.

But herein lies the real dominance.

Afcon 2023 Final - 2 West African teams played the final.

Afcon 2021 Final: A West African team played vs A North African team.

Afcon 2019 Final: A West African team played vs a A North African team.

Afcon 2017 Final: A central African team vs A North African team.

Afcon 2015 Final: West African Derby again.

Afcon 2013 Final: West African Derby again.

Afcon 2012 Final: West Africa vs South Africa.

We can go on and on down history lane and you will find that COSAFA TEAMS ARE MERELY "USHERS" AT THE AFCON. They come in, they mark attendance, but dem no dey go front or high table.

chai that one enter “MERE USHER”🙆🏼

Angola will bring down the sky before they let go of their coach, especially when they are in such good form right now.

Plus am not sure how much he currently makes, Angola is a rich country to some extent.

I know the answer!!!
It is staring us in the face!!
Isn't it so obvious!!!
We have been here so many times!!!
Going round in circles!!!
Never reaching the summit of our powers!!
How long should we continue evading the solution!!
We have to DIG DEEP!!!!
Pull out the solution from the depths!!!
I don't need to say the name
You, and you and you and I know the man, the saviour, that prophet without honor in his homeland.
Mercurial and majestic but yet denied.

I need say no more, I rest my case.

You have not said anything.

Serious Question: Creative conundrum of the Super Eagles

Elyte89, if you were given the Super eagles job right now, which player would you call up ahead of March as the creative deputy to Alex Iwobi??


I ask this because of this Eguavoen statement below post-match...


“Goals win games, we all know that. They are scoring goals in their club sides, they are scoring goals in training. But when it comes to the game, they don’t score goals. I keep asking the same questions,” Eguavoen told journalists.

“But you know there are some players who can make a difference, who can put the ball into space for them to go to goal. But we are still looking for that player who has that flair and creativity. A good playmaker who can put the ball into space for them.”









P.S: Anyone else who has a serious answer to this question can kindly go ahead and answer. Throwing names alone won't cut it. You must name that lad and correctly profile him as the creative head needed. Don't just name-drop. Name-drop correctly with the creative midfield profile in mind. Thank you.

Nwakali /ebenizer /chrisantus Uche /or risk Nnamdi of u-20

Tochukwu Nnadi you mean. Not Nnamdi.

Meanwhile... pick just one. You are the coach.

In my list … I will av to pick two till I get my perfect combo …me no Dey look at club status/performance …I am after who can deliver in the national team call ups

You saw what I did there but seriously I need an answer. A creative profile answer. Eguavoen has stated an obvious need in the team so everyone (if anyone can) should kindly throw up a creative profile name.

Goke7:
I just like this thread

But you already have Alex Iwobi.

So picking two means you will be having 3 creative MF profiles. Well, not a bad idea but the focus is on deputising for Iwobi or playing such a lad when Iwobi is absent.

Well I don’t c iwobi as a creative midfielder like I said earlier in one of my post,any coach dt still relies on iwobi as a creative hub is a lazy coach

I will rada use him d way his club fields him,dt is if he will start ..to me I will assume we don’t have dt creative midfielder at all

Interesting insight. I understand you now. Actually a valid stance from you, I must admit.

@Komekn input is needed here.

ChrisKels:
It was Onyedika that ochestrated that goal by a simple good decision making. Ndidi would have chosen a simple pass wide to Bruno, but Onyedika opted for a quick turn to make a long pass through the midfield

Play Onyedika, Ndidi(or Onyeka), then Iwobi in the midfield
