BankyGee:
Their team no too good like that jare.


Benjamin Fredrick's ratings with Dender are not really good too, he has two 5. red ratings but look at him in a team that's solid at least. Because person dey play for poor team no mean say he no get him own individual good qualities.

Frederick have been used at RB at club level

Mujtahida:
Ademola and Lookman? No be juju be this? 😏😏

Haha!!!! Na Victor I wan write o, lol.

I meant secondary assist. Aina assisted na, right?

BankyGee:
Ola Aina.

I hope Chrisantus Uche, Sam Chuks, Felix Agu, Raphael Onyedika all get playing time come Tuesday.

You forgot to add Amas Obasogie too.

Amedino99:
if the ball went a little higher, tolu would have been a villian for kicking out a goal bound shot. Good pre-afcon prep. We move on to south africa.

Looking @ it very well, I really think those defenders would have cleared that ball if Tolu was not there to kick it in.

lexyman:
he is so good in the air , i think he can get better if they take advantage of his height . scrappy goal na still goal

Top qualities :
*He has good presence in the box for his stature. That thing is working for him.
*He would make a very good number 8 as his hold up play and precise short passing in the box is top notch as also shown against Zimbabwe.
* In him I believe we have another aerial bully just like Osimhen
*He's hood with first touches too

I wish he had two of that pace, agility and aggressiveness that makes Osimhen stand out.

All in all, let's remember these ugly truths
1) Lookman missed preseason and have not played any game this season. So his form and shape is not yet there
2) Osihmen too missed preseason. Tho he has started games for Gala, but I have not seen his beast mode in his 2 games which I have watched. So he may not be in his beast mode yet.

BankyGee:
He's been balling even at Besiktas, his last game he had 7.8 rating.

He's calm and composed now, make he try work on him finishing tho.

Ndidi had a fine game playing as a DLP(always carrying the ball out from the back), but Frank was the one doing the dirty job in that midfield(breaking play and slowing down the tempo of the game just like he did in the AFCON).

Our defence did not do much in the first-half because of Frank's industry, but immediately he got subbed off in the second half.The opponents started seeing chances, which prompted Chelle to introduce FDB to stabilize the midfield.

Chelle learnt from our last 2 AFCON qualifiers,instead of throwing in Uche and Raph into the mix for a second goal, he chose to introduce FDB and Ekong.A move he made to hold on to the lead and not extend it.

I expect a good game against SA, but we will see what our midfield will look like.

For me Tolu & Osimhen starts in our next game.

Special shout-out to Fredrick for his composure in the heart of defence.

The future of our defence is indeed bright, with Bassey, Fredrick and possibly Vince Osuji.

Chelle know's his onions.

Go!Go!!Go!!! Super Eagles.

He knew that he goofed vs Zimbabwe.

Nice to see many positive comments this morning. All the negative, gloom and doom people have crawled back under the rock they crept out from.

lbrichman2:
Dude can bench Osimhen on a good day

U say what?

wildchild1:
whats the road to Word Cup qualification for Nigeria? we are 3rd on the table, is it still possible to qualify for world cup?

Let's say 30% possibility

solonnachi:
As it stands NOW

South Africa - 16pts
Benin- 11pts
Nigeria - 10pts
Rwanda- 8pts
Lesotho- 6pts.
Zimbabwe - 4pts

South Africa v Nigeria
Zimbabwe v Rwanda
Benin- v Lesotho

Why is everyone overlooking Benin? There is still big problem if they beat Lesotho, which is very likely. Which means we'll behaving two teams surmount in just two games remaining.

It's because we're still going to play Benin at home
Let super eagle win there next 2 game and I pray Benin win 1 and draw 1 before meeting us
I also wish Rwanda to beat Zim so that they can put pressure on SA , a Draw won't be a bad result for them

AndSunGorilla:
Okoye says hi. His suspension would soon be over.

Okoye is still nowhere near Nwabali. The guy is still the best joor

Ohh we still have a match with Benin. Good one.

His first touch is sleek. Tall, strong and confident. Not clumsy like Sadiq or Onuachu

Nwabali wahala too much.

South Africa is sailing and scoring goals for fun.

SA - 16 points with +8 GD.
Nigeria - 10 points with +2 GD.

Remove 3 points and 3 goals and SA will still be on 13 points with +5GD.

There's no other option. We have to beat SA handsomely on Tuesday, win our remaining matches and also hope SA looses somewhere down the road.

Its an uphill task but its possible, and I choose to believe till the end.

Na Peseiro and Finidi put us for this gbege.

Baba, this your Dessers, call am ooo.

Simon should come on as a sub abeg. Let Lookman play from the left.

What formation did we play yesterday because I don't understand why Aina was used as a RWB rather than a RB?

Mujtahida:
Nwabali wahala too much.

In terms of ability or attitude?

Joebie:
I meant secondary assist. Aina assisted na, right?

The secondary is like the pre-assist? If it's that one, it's Bruno Onyemaechi.

Aina's wasn't counted as an assist seff be like e hit Rwandan player before Tolu smack am in.

Attitude

ChrisKels:

Na 4-3-3.

Aina was an RB, Simon RW, but he was drifting to the left too much, leaving only Aina on that wing.

We're still playing Benin again if I'm not mistaken. As long as we beat them too, there should be no wahala. They're just a point above us.

It would be a war though. Arguably tougher than Nigeria v South Africa, because we're technically in the same predicament. And you know how these minnows start playing like prime Brazil whenever they see Nigeria.

FIFA is going to deduct those points from South Africa. It will happen. I'm now sure more than ever.
