Nigeria has what it takes to win all 4 games, it’s just mentality that will matter, can our players be dogged enough in mentality and approach to chew this teams as they should be chewed.

We don’t have the Ghanas, Ivory Coast, Egypts in our group, even with this strong African teams, it’s a 50/50 chance, and Nigeria can qualify.

That we are in this situation is because of a poor winning and national team mentality from our players, they keep underperforming and being complacent, they don’t have mentality to beat this smaller teams, fear factor is big deal, and it starts with approach, slip ups can happen and this smaller teams get unexpected wins or draws sometimes, but the truth someone needs to tell our players is that their mentality is very poor, their approach and attitude is very average, it’s not a talent thing, a team with players in very competitive leagues is dragging points with Lesotho, Rwanda, Zimbabwean.

Super eagles players so far have let us down, if they come in with the ready to fight and qualify mindset, bring their A game, we will blow this 4 teams away, and it will not be small win, the fans can doubt but the players must believe it and be ready to do it by all means, man you need to see North African and South Americans fight to win football games, they are warriors.

The only player fighting in that team is osimhen, if the 10 others can also improve on their approach, Rwanda and South Africa will be down 3-0 each by half time, but if we continue with this weak mentality and approach, we drag 0-0, then because we all of a sudden want to score in last 20 minutes, we get hit by 1-0 on a counter by Rwanda, then go draw in South Africa.

And we do not deserve qualification with such poor mentality, we would just be making numbers at the mundial.

Na only Africa this kind fraud dey take place. You dey play home match for country wey dey the same group with you. Match wey Dem suppose carry go one east Africa or north Africa country. To make things worst, FIFA come even approve the stadium. Now no home advantage to Lesotho and now South Africa Kon get double home advantage.
This South Africa team no go win one match for world cup self

Again, allowing Lesotho and Zimbabwe to play their home games at South Africa is a very big mistake. NFF, Benin and Rwanda should have fought this very hard.

Philosopher1979:
I always suspected samuel chukwueze could play through the middle instead of the wings. I thought maybe a supporting striker. Maybe h eight be better as an attacking midfielder. His dribblingband creativity seems more dangerous down the middle. Let's see is it works for him in midfield. This is one change that I respect chelle for
Yes.

That's what they always do, they will stop the teams with better players in Africa from qualifying but they will end up disgracing themselves when they get to the world stage.
S/Africa cannot win Haiti in a world cup

yinkeys:
Hes not as quick and energetic as he used to be
In a tough game I’d pick Onyeka over him
Id pick him to start against Rwanda
Id pick Onyeka to start against South Africa
It all depends on who coach wants to play DM
Lookman hasn’t played any minutes this season, coach may start Moses ahead of him
He could come on as a sub
Chukwueze for the CAM role not as the DM.

Sad thing is that winning our last 4matches will not guarantee qualification.
Even qualifying for 2nd place Playoffs is not guaranteed if we win our remaining 4matches.

Both occasions, we will still need favours from other countries. That's just how pathetic our current position is.

Already zero my mind for this WC. Let us use the remaining four games for our Afcon tournament friendly games.

Our chances of qualifying to WC is 10%.

There was one too Vs South Africa in South Africa, ref cancelled Lookman's clean goal. NFF kept quiet. No single protest.
It wasn't Lookman who scored. It was Isaac success

What do you expect when the CAF president is from South Africa? It obvious they have rigged the match fixtures, days intervals between games, officiating, and venues to favor South Africa. Even the points deduction is in doubt because they have the CAF presidency.

The reasons are simple and they are 2 reasons.
1. Our players are not just good enough, we the fans are guilty of overhyping them e.g (Chukwueze, Simon, Ekong, Ndidi, Osayi).
2. Some that are good doesn't give their all and shows much commitments when playing for the national team (e.g Iwobi)

To me, only Osimhen, Lookman, Aina and Bassey (Nwabali is also cool) can break into any national team.

That's why during SE matches, you will see some of these so called professionals making school boys errors, errors that were supposedly avoidable even without a coach.
