SolaFide:
Going forward,we only need 3 strikers for the November window.

A fit Victor Osimhen
A fit Gift Organ
A fit George Ihelikhana.

Odunayaw:
West Africa na crazy neighborhood

joelsteron:
I get your point about bringing in younger midfielders, and I’m not against that at all. But phasing out the older players doesn’t automatically mean dropping them all at once.

My point is about balance. If Ndidi is still being used, Iwobi is still around, then give them defined roles and bring Onyedika into the midfield properly instead of forcing Iwobi to play too deep.

At the same time, younger midfielders should absolutely be called up and given a real chance. Let them compete for those spots instead of keeping the same names there forever.

The team that played against Portugal and Poland and in the Unity cup, why Chelle dey troway face for them...
Bewene
Alhassan Yusuf
Otele
Emmanuel Fernandez
Igoh Ogbu
Tochukwu Nnadi
Rafiu Durosimi
Samson Tijani
Igboke
Nwaiwu
Even Benjamin Frederick.....or was there call ups for those matches just in vain with no hope of gradual integration into the super eagles?
For this senior super eagles player to collect 3-0 and winning a lean 2-1, Chelle should not be scared of taking out some players then

yinkeys:
Sudan
G Bissau
Gambia will all wanna beat Nigeria now
Pray make Cabo Verde, Angola or South Africa 😅 no catch naija now
Past glory , we better face reality
We’ve got weak players in the midfield, defense, goalie & attack that lack pace
It shows why we couldn’t qualify for 2 world cups
We hype & hail our players like they play in Barcelona, PSG, Bayern Munich, Liverpool, Arsenal etc
When they play in tier 3 teams and below
Only Lookman plays in a Tier 2 team
Shocked they’ve not appointed Falcons coach since, until Falcons fail to qualify for Olympics
Nigeria government will finish us patapata
I don’t see any country battering Senegal, Morocco & Egypt like this away from home
Is Ben Fredricks 100% fit to play ?

Dannyxy:
As for me this crop of eagles I expect nothing from them, if they still remain.

Iwobi Osimhen Bassey, and lookman for tournaments, all the rest of the old guard can go, let the new boys make up the team.

Give Bassey the captaincy, anything else na 1 step forward 2 backwards.

We still Dey call iheanacho


And we need a strong home ground that gives our players all the advantages of playing at home.

Akom Adam's, has really lost form. Look at when George came in, Nigeria almost scored. As a striker you need to position or look for space so that you can received pass and scored. Adam js really lost it.
The coach is just playing in base on he's form in Afcon.

AndSunGorilla:
Thank you!!!! Chelle too must take a huge part of the blame. I like it that it wasn't a close loss but a mauling. So Chelle has to sit up. He has to make some big calls.

minsfelix2:
Bro na only for Qualifiers this guy's dey always look beastly against us...if we met them at Afcon we usually dispatch them...why can't we solve this qualifiers problem for once eehhnnn
Angola stopped us from going to 2006 WC
Junior Congo and Sudan stopped us from going to Afcon 2015
Guinea stopped us from going to Afcon 2012.
Benin, Lesotho, Zimbabwe,SA stopped us from going to 2026 WC...

The only time top teams stopped us in a qualifier was in 2017 Afcon where Egypt stopped us and 2022 WC where Ghana stopped us

SymphonyRad:
He discarded all these players for reasons best known to him and stuck with the old guards, these players gave you a style of football we all loved during the unity cup and friendly games...yet somehow Chelle is too cowardly to stick to what worked for him because he's afraid of probably offending the "experienced players". I can bet that the unity cup team would have fared way better against Guinea bissau than the rubbish we saw today.

yinkeys:
The host nations for AFCON 2027 will wanna beat Nigeria if we qualify lol

yinkeys:
Aina & Onyemaechi would be retained though
Who better than them ?

Benin get more foreign players pass them and Benin just needed a draw to enter the play off and win to qualify 🤣🤣....boom!! 4-0

Kilishihunter:
Let's just hope Madagascar helps get points off them while we win ours cause we are officially in wahala. How will guinea Bissau of all nations be beating us like we committed a crime. Chelle should please play players in form next time. I just hope osimhen, Fernandez, Femi Azeez, yohanna and orban are with the team next month. Ndidi should even be blocked on the super eagles WhatsApp group

Mujtahida:
Even Morocco, the best team in Africa did not win us 3-0 but GB took us to a cassava farm and scored three against us.

The NFF cannot protest because even Nigeria does not have good pitches because I don't see why in this era our players should be playing football on such abominable pitches. It's unacceptable.

GUINEA BISSAU’s GOAL 🇳🇬 🇬🇳

I Said this Before that Stanley Nwabali is too heavy to hit the ground too lazy to dive . If he dived Here, this should have been saved.

I’ve always said Nwabali looks heavy and struggles with low dives — this is the same issue that cost us against… pic.twitter.com/Qv1atVMQAD

teeshet:
Ewoooo! What did i just saw? Guiness bissau of all people. I didn't watch the match. Somebody explain to me. TheSuperNerd, i blame you. You are always hyping this mediocre team. Come and explain or forever don't talk about super eagles again

joelsteron:
I’d like to see Chelle try a 4-3-3.

Ndidi as the 6. Onyedika as the engine and link between defence and attack. Iwobi playing higher as the creator.

Onyedika is very important to this setup. We need someone who can carry the ball, progress play and give the midfield some movement.

Ndidi protects. Onyedika connects. Iwobi creates. Enough said

lloydtruth:
These players are not the problem.

Eric Chelle is tactically poor and by the time Nigeria would have realized it, the damages would have been done.

I have also noticed that there are some paid individuals running a PR for him. They are also here.

Eric Chelle will mess up both our AFCON and Olympics chances.

Bookmark this.

Blueelf:
I tho7ght you were going to say something new

Ndidi is washed. So in 2026, you're still relying on him as a 6??

Onyedika is overrated

I thought you were speaking of guys that haven't yet been invited to play but are good enough

charlesemeka85:
Nerdy see as you collect stray bullet 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

charlesemeka85:
Just rewatched the first goal. Nwabali have no excuse not to make an attempt to punch that ball out
