If Tunisia have a decent midfield they will ride over that midfield

Bakayoko and Osimhen

MetalJigsaw:
He was terrible sir

Algerians have figured out Chukwueze like maths

Put two defenders on him and he goes nowhere

andrewbaba44:
Take this to the European football thread

Thank you

Who is this one?

If you were Rohr would you experiment with a different starting eleven and risk being beaten twice in the space of one week

Or would you keep most keep most of the first eleven and make little changes?

Bolowolowo:
We lack depth. There’s still more searching to do for options in all departments except for goalkeeping.

Yea and Zaidu Sanusi is a good addition to the left back depth

What did we even learn from the Algeria match?

smartsmith0907:
dont be shocked zirkzee might switch to Nigeria he is a proud Nigerian he made his debut for Netherland tonight and he tweeted in Pidgin ( that should tell a lot ) rohr has contacted him and he didn't rule out the possibility of switching as a matter of fact Netherland senior contacted him but he didn't honor the invitation( biko no ask for source) but instead he is playing for the U-21

Na this kain thing dey give people hope for this thread

Bolowolowo:
Since our midfield is lacking, Rohr has no choice but to invite Nwakali and Azeez during the next break. There's no reason to omit them considering our lack of depth in that department.

Oforborh has played much more than Nwakali, Dele Bashiru too if not for the injury

Guess who just scored a hattrick

Ejaria will help us out in our midfield

tbaba1234:
Okoye, Ebuehi, Zaidu, balogun

That's all

A good thing is they are all part of our defense

When is our next match?

BascoVanVeli:
He is a galatasary player I thought

Yea ok

timay:
It's actually the opposite though. It means the stakes are now higher and any mediocre performance means these guys will be replaced quickly with better players because the financial ability to do so is now there.

When man city was bought then. The mediocre players in the team were the first casualty. It was few players who stepped up E.g Kompany who participated in the project.

So they need to step up their game too

Umar Sadiq will survive for the first few years, I don't know of Ozorwafor tho

forgiveness:
Sanitize the truth?

Take your truth to the politics section we don't want that nonsense here

forgiveness:
Am I the one that claimed talent can ONLY be found in certain regions in Nigeria?

Didn't you cry sentiment and powers that be against Buhari? How hypocritical is that?

Like I said, they are not your boys as long as they are not from your village. This is enough to count you a tribalist.

Which kind talk be this

Abeg Semid4lyfe make you dey sanitize this thread

JayromWrites:
How person go watch that match come claim say agu was majestic



Nothing aina no go see for bench

Agu was anything apart from Majestic

forgiveness:
Aina is better. Gbam

Opata

forgiveness:
Fans opinion don't matter, stats matters.

Aina is far better than Ebuehi.

If I ask you to bring stats now you start to yarn opata

Edopesin:
At the bolded, Rohr will not bench one of his best players in a crucial tournament as the Afcon for Omeruo and using yesterday's game as a point because Ekong wasn't his best is just mischievous considering the fact that Ekong was our best defender in the Afcon and in the World cup. Ekong has been our best defender in the past 4 years and the armband he wears ahead of Balogun says a lot.

Ekong has been consistent for both club and country, his numbers are there for you to see. I cannot imagine Rohr keeping Ekong on the bench for any reason, It just doesn't happen in crucial matches unlike with balogun that is dispensable

K

Edopesin:
nobody ever said balogun is not good, you only sidestep the point to avoid answering the question because you have no way to justify that Balogun is our best defender and that's just your opinion and nothing more.

What's your point, I said Balogun is our best defender most of matches he played he was one of our best players, he was part of the famed Oyibo wall and proved himself yesterday too so what exactly is your point?

He has to perform in a tournament? He performed credibly well at the World cup and didn't play much at the Afcon, club form? He has an incredible record at his club 16 clean sheets in 24 matches so I don't know what your point is

Edopesin:
The argument is not about who is good and who is not, It is about balogun and the tournament he played better than any of our center backs as you said

Eod

The argument is actually about who is good and who is not, Balogun is our best defender and he proved that Yesterday, bringing up tournaments in 2019 where he played only 2 games won't change that fact

Sportilitica:
Iwobi off, had a nice game with no attacking supporting. Misplaced a few passes but his fitness level can not be questioned at all.
We have not stringed 7 passes TOGETHER as a team.

Wait are you watching the match now?

Edopesin:
How you rate a National Team Football is definitely limited to performances in tournaments, Friendlies are used as preparation for these tournaments and I'm more about what tournament he showed that he was our best defender at.

Qualifiers tournament and their tournament proper are more significant than any friendly regardless of how we perform in these friendlies And Ekong also played well in the world cup and even gave us a crucial win to advance to the Quarter final in the Afcon

Yes and Idowu played well and Victor Moses, even Musa should be no 1 on the team sheet

We know who is good and who is not, stop all this shalaye

Edopesin:
how then did you come to that conclusion if he wasn't the best in any tournament

Football is not limited to tournaments, besides he played well at the World cup and played only 2 matches at the Afcon

Do you think we should discard all the observations we had yesterday match because it was not a tournament?

andrewbaba44:
If Balogun no do well for rangers dem no go invite am ,don’t be quick to forget his Brighton days

Common sense is not common

That one no be wetin we dey talk what is the connection between what you said and this

andrewbaba44:
Tournament and qualifiers na the koko

andrewbaba44:
One of the reason why I like to enter you

We are talking about how a player gets invited ,he has to do well for his club but you don run Dey para ,if I talk now dem go say Andrew don start ,as if you hear me argue about epl or laliga here

Smh

We are talking about National team performances and how Balogun has impressed and you brought out tournament and I pointed to the preference to ALL National teams performances to tournaments and you shifted to clubs

Sometimes dey know what you are talking about

andrewbaba44:
Tournament and qualifiers na the koko

andrewbaba44:
If you no play well for club national team no go call you so club is above all as club is the ultimate

Guy we dey analyze national team here, if you want to analyze their club performances you can go to their club page

andrewbaba44:
No na against Lesotho I for use analyse our players

I Dey use club performance bros

You use club performances, I use national team performances.

forgiveness:
Search and don't be lazy.

Aina is far better than Ebuehi. If Rohr like make em use Ebuehi but it doesn't change the fact that Aina is still far better.

Aina is better than Ebuehi in your dreams, don't let me bring up comments of Hull, Torino and even Fulham fans on Ola Aina
