If I was coaching Zadok and want to suggest players to watch clips of and copy I would promptly point to Finidi, Beckham, Figo, Mahrez, and Di Maria.

A productive winger to me is one who uses his dribbling skills to create that slight space to deliver a cross or shot. A high IQ winger for me is one who is smart enough to know when to cross or shot instantly instead of pointless dribbles that allow defenders time to get into shape.

Zadok is young and still has time to refine his game and avoid Ikedia, Maduaeke, Chukwueze kind of wingers play sets.

Thinking about Yohanna
I really don't like all these dribbling wingers who dribble until they reach they eighteen yard before they pass or shoot. They bend their head down and start running like squirrels.

Baba, cross ball na.

They should be taught to cross the ball as in their game should be a mix of both skills. Till date Finidi stands as our best 7. He was an excellent crosser of the ball.

That guy sharing "if Nigeria hosts the world cup" meme.

This is Japan in training in Mexico.

Mujtahida:
My bad belle prayer is for all of them to come home after first round.

The story is told of three men who found themselves in hell. The devil told each of them to make one request and it will be granted. The first one promptly asked to be with his family.. The word was barely out of his mouth before he found himself cozying up in the warmth of his home.

The second one requested that he wants to be on a cruise ship in the pacific ocean. Fiam, he found himself on a cruise ship and began partying.

Well, it was now the turn of the third guy. Do you know what he asked for? He requested that the devil bring the two other guys who had left, back to hell.

His request was granted.


We Super Eagles fans are in the hell of disappointment now. My bad belle request is that all African teams must come back after first round. 😂😂

😆 why will the third person ask for such request? Don't he want good life?

SymphonyRad:
In an odd way I'm kinda glad we didn't qualify for the world cup, with all this plethora of exciting young talents emerging, I strongly believe it will all finally come together for Nigeria after this world cup when the next AFCON commences with all the new players finally peaking for us as we start a new lease of life with a budding generation.

Nothing good about us not qualifying for the World cup,
World cup boost young players confidence and careers who featured it.

One other thing, I have been hearing "We are rebuilding" since 2002 till date,
only Keshi had been able to have gotten it right, not with the entirety of the new generation, but with the balance of the old and the younger players.
Let's believe Chelle will better Keshi's achievements

Bad belle na. Ever heard of kill joy?

TheSuperNerd:
He can cross when he needs to. He dribbles when he needs to. He passes when he needs to. He mixes all these actions. Una too dey overanalyse a good thing.

That'd be great if he has these qualities in proportion.

do4luv14:
So that when goals lick in through his side they will come and crucify Okoye ahbi

You and your Okoye. How your uncle Pinnick?

The U23 arm of our National Teams Hierarchy has to be resurrected and taken seriously. The NFF is sleeping on the U23s.

Your post deserves a thousand likes. You have put into words my sentiments. I wanted to highlight some portions but the entire write up is the highlight.

Timing. Proportion. Accuracy. If he tailors his game to inculcate these elements he would be invaluable to any team he plays for. Otherwise na Ikedia 2.0 he go be.

I know right.. The story was just hilarious and captivating.

Chukwueze not hitting his highest potential in soccer is not tied to his wing play pattern….its just simply shows that’s the height of his ceiling and limit of him wing play destiny….
I would want Zaddok to grow into the Neymar/Lamine Yamal shape(players that can delete you one on one turn your stomach in and out and mess you up and still deliver beastly crosses and assist aswell as adding beautiful goals to his game

Joebie:
he get choice? no be only Bewene be the natural RB for the squad?

Mighty Igoh has played there before for Chelle and he could again. He dare not put Fisayo there though, that would be suicidal.

Watching Tunisia vs Belgium right now and my God, Tunisia look just awful...it's obvious their template at this world cup will be park the bus and insha Allah, just a utterly diabolical team to watch.

They won't win any game

Fisayo has played RB already under Chelle.

Tunisia red card. Gharbi from Ogundu's club, Augsburg on loan from SC Braga. Bad tackle on Doku...

Belgium 3-0 Tunisia... KDB Special.

It will always be Tunisia. They are the Flop Kings in every WC year from Africa.

As usual.... Useless Tunisia at the world stage


Very anyhow country


Disgracing Africa upandan


Them and Egypt can never perform well outside Africa


Always flexing muscles in African Qualifiers

It is now 4:0.

The persecution of the Tunisian players on the field of play is not something i can wish for anybody.

Make Una no make mouth too much o na Portugal we go face soon o be careful how you yab other teams 😂

It is now 5:0.

Some of it na decision making too.

Send in a one time pass to your forwards no, na to attempt dribble for the highlight reel.

To be fair Chukwueze isn't the worst offender (looking at you M.Simon) but I've seen it one too many times to not conclude it's a style of play issue than him reaching the max of his ability.

You remember that our second goal against Algeria where Osimhen gave a one time pass to Akor? Samu would have definitely attempted to dribble the last defender instead of passing once.

The worst thing Portugal go win us with one or two goal margin
He nor fit be like this

4-0. Lukebakio. I just tire.

Modified na 5-0 now... Raskin... as I dey type.

Went unbeaten in the WCQs (9 wins, 1 draw) and conceeded zero goals only to come concede 5 with 9 days to their opening WC game. Smh

Lolzzz which one be Uncle Pinnick again, person wey I no even know, and he even Sabi me,

Infact make I no talk 🚶🚶🚶🚶🚶🚶

This is Tunisia's "World Class" WCQs campaign that fetched the WC ticket....

They went from that to 5-0 thrashing vs Belgium... a tournament darkhorse team ooo not one of the top 5 WC favorites. It is too much bikonu.

Default setting of Tunisian national teams is to qualify for WCs and get knocked out unceremoniously.

Egypt themselves have a disgraceful record. 0 wins in 3 appearances.

Maybe this first one will be the lucky charm they need to break their duck.
