richiemcgold:
Iwobi was never a creative midfielder. We shouldn't be expecting what he can't offer. A kind of creative midfielder we need for this current team is a player with Mikel obi's style of play.

Was Mikel Obi a creative midfielder?

The policeman dont have any issue.

He should just tell his superiors that Iwobi didn't perform that's why he lost his rifle.

Dancebreaker:


At least we went further than we have ever done in a decade. Bassey and entire defence was under too much pressure. Ndidi was an epic miss to SE.

And then i remember, i should have said Nigeria has never played this type of defensive football at AFCON.

In the 2002 World cup , i remember we crumbled under this same pressure. Though i must give it to the players we had back then. They played better despite meeting a classic Argentinian team.

Dancebreaker:

Osimhen did not look too fit.

Simon should have started to run behind CIV defence like Adingra did to us.
Osimhen was starved of ball.

CIV played sound football and deserved their win.
Sure Ivory Coast deserved their win.

The Coach's formation and tactics prioritized Defense in place of attack.

The midfield was basically not existent and that meant Osimhen was stranded forward.

Nigeria has never played this kind of defensive football.

We are used to a 4-3-3 or 4-4-2 formation.

Oga, you are being just emotional...

The dude is average. Pure and simple.

Defenders of all hue were bullying him front and back...

One goal in 7 matches tell the whole story...

I gave you facts and stats and you tagged me being emotional.

Your response to my post would have been worth it if you had faulted my points.

You dont know jack about football or else you would have seen that Osimhen was a waste of space...

He couldnt press, he couldnt track back, he couldnt make any good run...

Of course, he couldnt score or lay an assist...

Dude is an average, one season forward....

Real Madrid go dey laugh....
One season forward because you are ignorant of Osimehn's career history!

He was the highest goal scorer in the qualifiers.
Just check through Nigeria's progress from the group stage to the semi finals and see most of our goals came directly or indirectly from his play.

Two PK scored by Ekong were won by him.

He had two goals ruled out by VAR. The last one because of a foul by teammate Yusuf.

In the final yesterday, there was literally no chance created by anyone to him.
Most long balls played towards his directions were poor and many were far from opponents box.


Like i said, most of you criticizing Osimehn are armchair analysts.

Politics / Re: Why Can't Nigeria Establish Rice Mills And Agric Industrial Factories? by saddler: 12:27pm On Feb 12
Davidblen:
India government has established over 100 rice mills and agro manufacturing factories to subsidize food prices

Despite sanctions from the West, The russian populace is still standing because they plant and produce the grains they eat and the Russian government still subsidized the grains for its citizens and the European union is still suffering the after effect ever since Russia banned food exports

Why cant a country like Nigeria have the same? , Nigeria has more population than Russia or are they people holding down this country as a result of sabotage

The IMOTA rice mill has been sabotaged to not produce its full capacity, they barely produce enough to sell

We need revolution

If only Rice mills and Agricultural industries can be built with tribalism and ethnicity, Nigeria would have had many.

That's our consolation bcoz we never expected them to get to final if not I would have sent some harsh words to Osimeh, Chukweze, Aina, and Nwobi. They ruined the game.

I will be very surprised if Osimhen gets a top club after his performance in this tournament. Nobody is talking about his work rate. We know he works hard for the team. But at the end of the day, a striker’s job is to score goals. Look at Haller. Give him half a chance, he scores. That’s a striker.
How many balls did Osimehn get as a striker?

How many chance were created by Nigerian midfield for Osimehn to score?

Sports / Re: AFCON2023: Iwobi Needs To Be Replaced For The Final - Sunday Wale Adeniran by saddler: 11:50am On Feb 10
Yes, iwobi was very terrible in that midfield.

He gifts the opposition easy balls and put his own team in emergency mode.

Iwobi should start from the bench.

Business / Re: Can't Send Dollars To Nigeria Any More by saddler: 5:05am On Feb 09
Throwback:
The next step is to outlaw forex processing for foreign education for a minimum of 10yrs.

Any Nigerian that wants to be educated abroad should look for the money abroad.

We have schools here that can take those huge amounts of Naira we employ to buy forex for UK or American or Canadian education.

We need to jump-start our tertiary education system with better infrastructure, improved quality of education, improved salaries, and improved school fees.

Tough times require tough measures.


And the Buhari you supported wasted tax payers money in British pounds accessing medical tourism in London.


The Tinubu you are currently defending is also spending scarce forex to recharge himself in France.


Are there no hospitals in Nigeria? What about the ones they budget and spend billions on every year?

Abeg this was my last game, which I carried 9ja to win. Sporty put it as a loss because of full time draw even though 9ja went through. Is this possible or it can be contested??
lol

What do you want to contest?

You played Nigeria to win but the match ended in draw.

You should have played Nigeria to qualify. Nigeria didn't win the match in full-time, so you unfortunately lost.

So as they hold him down how many goals have the other players scored? I appreciate Osimhen, no doubt, but let's not sound like without him, it is over for us? With or without him if Nigeria can win the cup or lose the cup
They are schooling your ignorance and you are still being arrogant.


Osimehn is equal to two or more opposition players. His presence means Super Eagles are at an advantage
