I thought some Osimhen fanboys were screaming here that he apologized in private to finidi?

The way people disrespect Finidi over this Osimhen matter, you would think he was just one scrap footballer.. Finidi was once the best right winger in the world.. Osimhen can’t even lace his boots!!! I am glad finidi did the right thing by leaving.

There are truly no consequences for bad behaviour in Nigeria, that's why Nigeria is where it's.

The foolish NFF set a bad precedent for allowing Osimhen back to the team without apologizing to Finidi.. Useless lots.

but you're not a great fan of wing play

Why will you think so? Guardiola whose style is what I adore a lot has a lot of wing play. It just that it should not be direct but built.

The movement and ball transition helps disorganize oppositions.

The wing players help stretch the opposition to create gaps in the center to attack and also help widen the half spaces too.

It is okay. Finidi George has moved on. He is only talking about it because of media questions. Move on too.

Mujtahida:

Noo. The creativity has to be in the middle. In fact the entire attacking prong including the wings.

Modern day football aims to have a very high line of defence and large chunk of offensive players. Due to this the opposition covers a lot of the space in front of the 18, which makes it the most difficult spot to keep the ball for long.

So you can't have someone who dwells on the ball there. That is why you have Vinicius, Doku, Grealish, Foden. Bernardo Silva, Mahrez, Lamal, Inaki Williams and co. wide most of the time.

The Creative midfield is occupied most times by fast thinking players that also contribute to attack too. Not flair.

if we can hustle patriotically with our star talents on their red hot forms to win our two matches in march 2025 away Rwanda vs Nig
and in our Home against
Nig vs Zimbabwe we would close up on these 3guys that are on 7points
Rwa 7pts
SA 7 pts
Ben 7 pts
Les 5 pts
Nig 3 pts
Zim 2 pts
cos while we are busy winning our 2matches others are canceling out each other

MD 5(March 2025)
SA vs Les (Likely win for SA)
Zim vs Ben (Likely win or draw for zim)
Rwa vs Nig (Hopefully we can nick a 1-0 win)

MD6(March 2025)
Nig v Zim(Likely win for super eagles 1-0)
Ben v SA (Likely win or draw for Benin)
Rwa v Les (Likely win for Rwanda)

By the end of this 2match days…the group leader maybe leading us with 2points
Then we will have September(MD 7 & MD 8 to play our heart out…..our boys just need to play to their topmost level all these teams no reach, na we dey jonz
September is the best time to overtake, cos we will be playing
Nig v Rwa (Likely win for eagles)
SA vs Nig (sure banker draw match)

You just spoke mind...
The problem now is how to beat Rwanda GK... We need some who can shoot outside the box... A bit of unpredictability
Because before lookman and the rest go dribble enter the box... GK don set well to save the shot

As for SA those ones dey sabotage themselves with their hands

Maybe it's time to finally try new strikers who are more clinical based on club form? Outside of Osimhen and Ademola, I don't think any of our strikers/Fwds have staked an indispensable claim to their shirts right now...Awoniyi and Nacho aren't in good form/fitness, Boniface is either played out of position or just not mentally psyched up yet ...so why can't the likes of Chuba Akpom be given a chance? and what's the deal with Gift Orbans nationality situation?

Gala is like an angel sent to rescue osi from the pangs of demon possessed Napoli who is hell bent on destroying such a blooming career so playing for them should be seen as a gallant move to escape and relaunch from a neutral ground.
I believe osi is making the best of the situation as it is. He's like a rare gem in an unpopular location for sure he will bounce back to a better future whether Napoli likes it or not Conte should stick his apologies up his azz!

If you guys are serious about Qualifying for WC, then we should go for a foreign coach/tactican. I don't see Eguaveon making an impact in these qualifiers. He has had the same opportunity but never delivered. What makes you think he will deliver now?
Renard or Labbadia would have been good pick but it's so sad NFF could not meet the requirements of these tacticans.
Not to discredit any indigenous coach but we already know how things turn out with them.
