Starting 100% foreign born players at the defence was a costly mistake. You can take it to the bank.

Our defence did not cost us that day find another thing to talk

PhoneCareIkeja:
Nice

Thank you

TheLoneCitizen:
You know a player is touching elite status when a hat-trick is a mere routine.

It doesn't excite me because it doesn't translate to anything for Nigeria

TheLoneCitizen:
Onuachu hat-trick. It's going down tonight.

This thing doesn't excite me anymore

codemaniacs:
S.E already has 6-7 competent midfielders.

Nwakwali
Onyeka
Iwobi
Ndidi
Tijani
Bonke
Onyedika
Alhassan Yusuf

Only Ndidi, Aribo and to an extent Iwobi are competent enough on an international level the rest are just there

Well I'm glad this thread is getting back to normal my take is that until we have 6-7 competent midfielders we are going nowhere as a footballing nation

Alex don get another customer

TheGoodJoe:
Congratulations to the NFF men who have made it a duty to destroy our football. You have turned our football to a branch of your politics. Where you write names of your boys that they must play.

I hope you are happy now.

Blame Eguavoen not the NFF they gave him every tool to succeed

Moses Simon lol

Which formation are we playing now?

How many strikers?

Jesus!!!

Bassey has owned that LB spot

Shehu Abdullahi is now our only midfielder

Etebo out uno, this is now long ball and insha allah

Shehu Abdullahi uno

Aribo needs to come into the game

Bassey is getting into the game

These guys want to exploit our midfield weakness

Why the time wastage?

Aina's hand must be hurting him

Why is Onyeka always in front of the ball fgs!

They should give Osimhen these things

Ekong?

Onyeka has to be more disciplined this is not the time to play box to box

semid4lyfe:
Hmm, I'm not sold on the central defence.

Ekong and Balogun are not comfortable with ball at feet, cannot play out from the back, tend to boot the ball forward, yield possession when pressed and are also prone to errors.

I hope the team plays well today and gets the W but I'm as nervous as a cat in a dog pound.

One would think as a moderator of this thread you have the littlest knowledge about sports

safarigirl:
Anyway, team news


Good line up, yes?

Looks like 4-3-3

Onyeka as main DM, well decent

gustav25:
Many Nigerians will cry today

You go still cry because you be Nigerian

andrewbaba44:
What do you expect from someone always looking for agenda ?

He doesn't even know which agenda to follow, stats or no stats

Komekn looking for stats

komekn:
Everyone who so far says Uzoho is better has not said how and or supported it with statistics and rational measurement of attributes.

All I've heard here is emotive dislike, prejudice and bias.
You included.

Komekn when presented with stats

komekn:
You can drop as many contrived stats as you like.

One game doesn't define a player.

If Uzoho was so good he would not be in the backwaters of Europe going nowhere.

On the other hand Okoye is on an upward trajectory.

You cannot exclude cup football and league for player assesment. The only reason Victor O is in the SE is his club and league form. His first game in the SE at AFCON 2019 was absolutely woeful.

But he is essentially the first choice striker even pushing out the top scorer in the AFCON 2019 Ighalo.

You are putting forward a double standard.
