Nigeria wants to play attacking football on a sandy patchy uneven pitch. Una better prepare for battle of long balls & dead balls. Dem go run tire

Maduka hv improved a whole lot ooooo

For now he is better than uzoho

Maduka Okoye is an averagely ok goalie. Small pressure and he would crack open with nothing special about him. Have seen him in the Eredivise with that weak team Sparta Rotterdam. Uzoho is better than him. Have not seen any measure of improvement in this guy. Still same weakness.

nelszx:
Ebuehi isn't a left back, that he was a make shift doesn't make him one. Ola Aina and Ebuehi are contenders for RB.
I still prefer Uzoho as No 1., Okoye still hasn't convinced me yet

I equally believes Uzoho is better than Okoye. Funny how some people think Okoye should be our number one goalie. The guy to me is poor at crossing or aerial ball.

With Samuel Kalu out and Moses Simon rumoured to be probably out too, if i were the coach-Gernot Rohr, the trio of Ndidi, Etebo & Aribo would play in the middle while Iwobi would play on the left wing to replace Simon. I would pick Chukwueze on the right wing with Osimhen as the striker. In defence, Ekong & balogun would keep their place while Awaziem and Zaidu would maintain their fullbacks position. Uzoho would be in goal of course to counter any aerial threat for the benin players are tall & big judging from the first leg encounter.

Personally for me, i will pick obinna nwobodo & azubuike okechukwu in midfield ahead of Semi Ajayi & Shehu Abdullahi. Obinna & Azubuike are far more talented and better midfielders than the duo of Semi & Shehu. With Aribo, Iwobi & Ejaria-when they finally processed his papers, i wonder how someone like the new addition Micheal Olise will make the team in midfield bearing in mind the way the team is set up by the coach. Because he would still be stuck on Etebo for energy, Ndidi for sleek interceptions, Aribo for quick burst of pace back & forth & Iwobi for his one-two passes. Semi Ajayi and of course Shehu Abdullahi will still remain an indispensable tool in midfield for him except we forgot what our team list was like to the last World cup & Afcon qualifiers and the events proper.

The coach oftentimes thinks of conuter-attacking football. His team is set up giving the ball away constantly, park the bus, then pick a loose ball and hit on the counter again. He has lot of players who are or can play as central defenders and almost none with creative spark in the middle of the pitch. His thinking has always been how to quickly close up the defence & take the ball away with speedy wingers. In his team list, majority in defense & midfield could fit in as vice versa.

1. Leon Balogun
2. Troost Ekong
3. Chidozie Awaziem
4. Ken Omeruo
5. Semi Ajayi
6. Wilfred Ndidi
7. Ola Aina
8. Shehu Abdullahi
9. Zaidu Sanusi

Morning House. Any dish seller/dealer in the house. I need offset dish up to 1.2m/1.3m to buy. .

Micheal OIise can not fit into the Super Eagles. We are talking about physical football in harsh weather condition on a poor pitch. He would struggle greatly. He's a light-weight & slower version of Joe Aribo. He's not special. He's just a good player.

Somebody posted this allegation on twitter.
''Full time: Ghana 1 Nigeria 0. Opponents score another late goal. It's the same old story. Team selection influenced by two individuals - Chief Joseph Uzoma Ebowusim and Liameed Olawale Gafar. Other players to get into this team, the asking price is from N2 million ($4,000.00)''

This set of Flying Eagles (Nigeria U20) don't look like a team that will go far. They are heavy & slow in movement. Caught ball watching while their opponent dribble through them with ease.

The retirement of Victor Moses, Mikel Obi & Odion Ighalo has really exposed Gernot Rohr's tactical ineptitude the more in the Super Eagles.

If in Europe or North Africa, he would have been fired long time ago but this is Nigeria, all is well.

Have observed that Zaidu Sanusi is always exposing the backline with his constant positional indiscipline.

Maduka Okoye & Sebatien Osigwe are long far from Super Eagles standard. That's just the truth.

Akpoguma is far from being our first choice right back. Awaziem performs better.

Rohr's style has always been to concede possession to the opponent, and hit the opponent on the counter through the wings. That's all. That's why they hardly string good passes together & the midfield mostly become part of the defence or non-existent in most matches.

@mostob. Sanusi is not a good crosser of the ball. Dude is bang average. His crossings are usually short of intended targets. Check his youtube videos to confirm this.

ChrisKels:
Forgiveness, do you still remember my message to you the day Noah Okafor was capped by Switzerland, and Danjuma by the Dutch?

Lookman remains the only winger I have always wished for, dude is so good. If you have a lookman behind or beside Osimhen, so many opponents will be brought to their knees, though our coach na werey.

Gernot Rohr is tactically a scam. One day we go open eye!

@smartsmith0907
That Rohr will not take Nigeria near Afcon gold medal not to talk more of world cup second round. Your believing in him that he will come good is nothing but a mirage. Keep dreaming!
And let Pinnick & co keep drooling for foreign born players too. When it dawn on him & his team they will do the right thing.

That Napoli Bakayoko is always a bang average fellow.

Jordan Torunarigha of hertha berlin is the real deal. That guy is good.

charlesemeka85:
I best pick for our cb position

AKPOGUMA - HOFFEINHEM
EKONG- WATFORD
TOSIN ADARABIOYO- MAN CITY
TORUNARIGHA- HERTHA BERLIN
FELIX UDUOKHAI- AUGSBURGl

Only TORUNARIGHA- HERTHA BERLIN is the worthy addition in centre back in the current Super Eagles set up for now. FELIX UDUOKHAI- AUGSBURG could be deployed to play in the Leftback position bringing in more competition for COLLINS, SANUSI & AINA whilst AKPOGUMA - HOFFEINHEM will be in the rightback position bringing in more competition for AWAZIEM, AINA, SHEHU, EBUEHI & EHIZIBUE in rightback position.

Childera Ejuke takes pleasure in dribbling to entertain forgetting football is teamwork & results. Learn to pass bro!

TheSuperNerd:
Really excited for Zaidu. Our own version of "Meep Meep Meep...."

The Naija Roadrunner.



Porto did this short welcome video for him.


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mJQBcJ2XBec


Our left back role just got upgraded with "Lightening Zaidu." Exciting times ahead.

You are hyping him!
This dude is no upgrade nor anywhere better than Ola Aina not to talk of Jamilu Collins. Yes, he has the engine to run back and forth down the flank but his defensive positioning is not top notch.

Sultty:
I heard he drove himself to d hospital. This g has d primonition of his death. I guess that's why he turned down d chief of staff position when it was thrown at him, rest in power super rich alhaji

He's bigger than that. That man was Bosses Boss.

lincolnola:
Pls I need advice in terms of functionality, which of these decoders is the best to buy ?
#1.Iclone decoder
#2. Me cool hybrid android box
#3. GT Media V8 Pro 2.
Anyone that is not mentioned here can be suggested as long as it takes care of recent technology and possibly future.
How much is 3M dish ?

They are all recent decoders with functionalities one can describe as latest.
#1. Icone is of different versions depending on whether regular stb version or you want the premium high-end version which comes as both enigma2 + android or any of it and with added bonus of cccam+iptv servers for use.
Warning: It's not pocket friendly. You must really have the necessary Satellites.

#2. Mecool hybrid Android combines android functionality and satellite+cable tuners. You can pick a choice of what you watch whether url streams or Sat tv.

#3. GT Media V8 Pro is a good stb box but not comparable in quality & price to #1.

If you wish to explore beyond just regular Stbs, enigma2 boxes will give you unending funtionalities with many options as it takes care of recent technology and its future. The latest things are decoders with options such as cccam/Ncam, iptv or online streaming for movies or downloads of digital files.
Enjoy your hunting for the nxt box!

Zaidu sanusi hype man spotted

Upon all the hypertek you are giving this guy he is not even better than jamilu collins

I hear say porto wan buy the guy

Dude is better than Collins by far offensively. He is faster & always pick out his man with decisive crosses. Though i will still pick Collins ahead of him because his primary duty is to defend. Collins trump him in that department.

Subzero047:
He runs around for 90 minutes but in the end he doesn't create chances or assist or score or become SE top destroyer so what exactly does he do?

He needs to move further up. Dude was beast for feirense in portugal. Let him play the same role and you'll be marvelled at how much goals he's got in him.

IDENNAA:
This is not about who told me , or do you think I am blind. You always sound like......lol.

Nwakali is a legit AM and CM because he organizes and create clear cut chances. Stop getting all emotional

.

Nwakali at best is a DLM and at most a CM/RW. I have watched him played in the U17, U20, U23, Dutch div 1&2, and Porto B. Save the argument bro. The man you quoted have said it all.

lele4u:
Yes
But the satellite you want to watch must be in A or 1
So you have to be changing it any time you want to switch the satellite you have tracked.
NB. Let the NIT be off if you have not track dstv

That's a makeshift! Diseqc combines satellites.

Any technician here please, i would like to know if the hdmi port of satellite decoder can be repaired if damaged by lightning. And if this is what you have done severally kindly drop ur number if in lagos.

Tolulopefinest:
Taribo West is actually right. Aribo struggles against Benin republic and Lesthoto. But his performances against Brazil and Ukraine were top notch.

If Taribo is complaining about Aribo, what will he say about Ejaria who left Rangers because he couldn't cope with the physicality of the SPL & insults from Rangers fans. Aribo adds bite to the team offensively, quick movement of the ball from defence to attack. The type that Iwobi always enjoy in one-two quick touches. whilst Etebo doesn't offer that. Etebo is constantly enroaching Ndidi's space in midfield and being a jack of all trade. He's got his strength no doubt but Aribo doesn't need to be physical, he only needs to control or manage effectively his space in central midfield. In the said matches (Benin & Lesotho), he still had his brilliant movements up & down the pitch and almost scored against Benin if not for the brilliance of the goalkeeper.

Zaidu Sanusi linked with a move to fc porto

That's good. But he's still got a lot to do as a leftback. Though decent going forward.

Let's check their stats, man. Each players best season...


Ejuke attempts the most shots per game, an attack minded player.

Ejuke is fouled far more than any of the three, allowing free kick specialists chances to score and also annoying opponents to be rash.

Ejuke dribbles way better than any of the three, meaning he is a suitable player against defensive teams and also one who draws opponents to himself, freeing his teammates. He is 10th best in the whole of Europe. The best in Eredivise

Ejuke is the most creative of the three.

Ejuke has one of the best pass accuracy in the Eredivise, way ahead of the other 2.

Ejuke is the best player in his team. Simon 15th best.

Ejuke has 4 MOTM. Kalu had 2 last season. Simon just 1.

Simon has been involved in more of his team goals. 10/28

Ejuke is a beast in away games, closely Simon. Kalu not too good.

Ejuke shines against big teams, also Kalu. Simon often disappears in matches.


All stats from Whoscored.

Hope you remember Simon & Kalu are not in the same league with Ejuke. Quality of league & opponents differs. Ejuke will struggle in the french league. His speed would be matched & subdued. The league is very physical. And there is no basis for comparison with Mbappe at Monaco. Mbappe was by far technically & tactically savvy. Ejuke had a purple patch in the just concluded season. Check his stats at former club & compare. He's good no doubt.

''Ejuke dribbles way better than any of the three, meaning he is a suitable player against defensive teams and also one who draws opponents to himself, freeing his teammates''

He gets selfish mostly in the box. He doesn't look out for the free teammates.

Ejuke Ajax?!
Dude always want to run and dribble into glory. He would need to master how to pass the ball quickly with precision. Ajax is team first.
