All of you are missing the point about Boniface


Dude is not an outright striker,... He is a winger... A right, direct, and purposeful winger


He has been played out of position all these while in the SE


A dare you all, play him on the right wing in a 4-3-3 formation for 3 games and I assure you all of a total of 3 goals and assists from him.


Dude is just unlucky to have been played out of Position all through his SE career

......

Besides I am not impressed with this result and our gameplay

We should always aim to win matches instead of giving excuses all the time

We need to install a winning mentality into SE, we were supposed to finish off the game after the equalizer

how come he doesn't have the position issue in his club? He is played as a striker in Leverkusen and he does fine but playing him in the same position in Nigeria translates to out of position?

We are asking for too much, this is just a friendly and not a competitive game. We just won the unity cup, is that enough to instil a winning mentality? Let’s be honest we couldn’t have won this game but for the great saves made by okoye. Make Una humble small, go and look at the stats again

It's the latter I think... My "omo" don finish for this guy matter.

Samueltemi337:
3 subs

Apparently, Chelle doesn't trust Papa Daniel and co.

Odunayaw:
Wait who wore number 14 that missed one on one!

Over Onyedika? Na pikin Daniel o

Anywhere belle face supporters. I hope they will have the same energy to counter Chelle after September?
Kids everywhere.

Have you seen Leverkusen play? Do you see how fast their attack is? They don't even give opposition defenders time to think, na give you ball, gimme back them dey play o.

No be Moses Simon wey go hold ball for two days for wing be their winger o. Sometimes Boniface drops deep into their own half to start counter attacks and end up in the front to finish, Nigeria no dey play that kind football. The one big chance he created for Dele Bashiru should let you know that. One touch, no romancing of ball too much.

He should just try to adapt or he should be played as a winger or AM, afterall he started as a midfielder.

You right.

Speaking of Tolu. He is the owner of the other big chance we had. He scored his while FDB squandered his.

Odunayaw:
I gasped! The shape of his body when he wanted to play already gave away where he wanted to play it. See how Tolu sold the keeper now

yinkeys:
Tolu’s goal was a gift from the Russians
A sub that came on with energy
The way people are already hyping his goal
Smh
We won’t get that type of gift if we desperately need a goal or winner
Another draw for Chelle, looks like this is how he may go draw at South Africa’s backyard
I hope all the players are injury free post friendlies
1 win 2 draws

After komekn,na you I go block for this Nairaland. Your rakes Dey always GBA

Eric Chef abi na Chelle seff... 🧠🇳🇬

No! Fair enough if he hangs his boot. He should stick to club football then.
Boniface needs to show a fighting spirit whenever he represents the National team.

Bright Osayi isn’t good enough to start tbh
Zimbabwe made us pay like that

Eric Chelle, unbeaten in 5 games yes... but please, kindly plug that leak in the defence. Ejor Coachee..

Since after the first game vs Rwanda, we have always conceeded.

Vs Rwanda (Cleansheet)
Vs Zimbabwe (conceeded 1)
Vs Ghana (conceeded 1)
Vs Jamaica (conceeded 2)
Vs Russia (Conceeded 1)

I trust he will anyway. He just got his hands on Benjamin Frederick, Igoh Ogbu and Felix Agu as additions to the defence. We will get there, I expect.

Lovely question. Abeg who dey to answer?

White beard.. shinny head... Water bottle

Who does that remind you of? 😂😂

Victor Boniface is a CF. Just not your Targetman CF Profile or a pressing forward CF profile or a Poacher CF profile... or Sharpshooter CF profile.

Boniface is a links-man CF profile akin to a kind of False 9. One who loves to drop deep and be involved in the plays. His linkup plays and finishing stands him out.

Who has watched Spain's CF? Mikel Oyarzabal. Does he look loke a traditional CF profile. Now he doesnt... but he drops deep, links up plays and brings others around him into play. He is a false 9 kinda.


Also, the liverpool version of Firmino is another example.

So please, Boniface is a 9. He is just a different 9 profile.

Baltaza abi wetin be that he name

Ahahn wetin concern that nakêd weapon with Chelle

He is a 9. Just a links-man CF profile unlike the other CF profiles dominating the sport. His finest season at Leverkusen saw him draw some similarities to an R9 (Ronaldo de lima) profile.

9.5 is what we call Iheanacho. A trequartista. Elite examples are Messi, Totti, Roberto Baggio etc.

Boniface has led the line on his own at Bodo Glimt and now Leverkusen.

At Royal USG, he was mostly played in a front two.

lbrichman2:
I like how Chelle is improving every aspect of the team ....
Attack, midfield, defence..

This man really came to work and succeed..
God! how we have lacked a good, inventive coach who understands the needs and potential of this team..

God bless Chelle

The guy dey give me arteta vibes when he first came to arsenal
