Kog45:Elder, I can attest that you have been consistent in saying this about him but I disagree with you slightly. Here"s my assessment of him after watching eight match highlights of Wrexham AFC (which included the referenced Swansea match in the tweet) from the clubs youtube channel. Strengths: Calm temperament/composure, commanding goal presence, good positioning, dominant aerial ability, sharp reflexes, elite shot stopping ability, excellent in 1v1 situations, specialist penalty saver. Weaknesses and Areas of Improvement: A bit gaffe prone, ball distribution needs improvement, mid ball playing ability (prefers to clear back passes rather than play out from the back with his defenders), preference for catching crosses in crowded areas rather than punch out. In summary. he's a Donnarumma-lite with a high ceiling and room for improvement. I do not think Maduka Okoye is better than him. |

Blueelf:This is where some people say that the innit boys have watered down our team. Not in terms of footballing abilities but that I no go gree attitude which Nigerians have and which our teams have demonstrated on the pitch in many crunch matches. Check out in 2013. Ivory coast had an array of stars. We bested them. Can these crop do the same? |

ChrisKels:Yes. This would be his worst game provided the ref doesn't misbehave |

I'm still yet to recover on behalf of Cameroon from the way Morocco swarmed them like bees and stung them all over their body. They man handled them. A whole Cameroon oo, known for their physical aggression and tenacity. The Moroccan team mauled and gored them. We are coming sha. |

Subzero0477:The Tunisians were head and shoulders above Mali in the round of 16, imagine if the ref had not given Mali that last minute penalty. Would the Malians have won that game through penalties? That's where a balanced officiating matters more. |

yinkeys:You want Morocco to go out at quarter final so that the stadium will be empty for the semi final and final matches? Now that they have a chance to play 2 more matches, fair officiating will return |

Nigerians on different platforms are asking if they will get fair officiating against Morocco, I say win Algeria first then we discuss Morocco later |

femicyrus:They could’ve gotten a red card against Cameroon & that Tanzanian going down due to exerted force was a clear penalty. Svcks Nigeria can’t host anything due to bad leadership & insecurity I don’t think the experienced Nigerian players will be able to cope with the atmosphere & Moroccan intensity. But they’ve experienced it against Ivory Coast so 🤔 Maybe we can slow the game down lol |

Blueelf:It looks like 4:1 or 3:0 but don't be surprised if bad officiating prunes our goals down to 2:1 or 1:0 still in our favour. |

Uzoho was three years away from the team. He's in the team at Afcon now. In fact he featured in one match. If we go on to win, will this not be a story of grace? Kai |
