That Swiss I saw against Italy? naaa!

TheSuperNerd:
If Switzerland is their next opponent if they survive this, then it may be Otilo. The Three Lions have to step up big if they are to survive the Giant-Killing Swiss.

TheSuperNerd:
Truth be told, this English team has the quality. I said it from the beginning of the tournament in their opener against Serbia but their issue is the stiffling coaching of Southgate.

This England lead is as a result of the players pushing. Not down to any Southgate magic and because this is their case, they may not survive a stronger, better, technically superior and more tactical opponent.

England is lucky to be in this half of the round of 16 draws. The other half houses the true powerhouses that could hurt them but even at that, their path is still not all safe.

You play two defensive minded players with very limited innovation creative ability it's a recipe for disaster.

typicalgamer:


Fisayo did more for eagles with just 45 minutes and show more potential than onyedika did over a 2 year period

But you’re not ready for that conversation

If not for The goal against Benin onyedika was never in the conversation to begin with

If not for ndidi and onyeka sudden drop of form onyedika was never likely to make match day squad

Is this not the same paperweight onyedika at afcon ?

1 good game and all of a sudden he’s the next coming of Toni Kross

Throwback.

On paper against SA Lookman played as a LW. But that's only on paper.
Lookman's shots were blocked for the most part, not from the wings. Most of his runs were not from the wings. He did his usual advances to creating space to shoot, but the SA defense were well drilled and disciplined enough to crowd him and block his shots. This is where we missed an imposing CF, one to stretch the opponents defense, that will create space for Lookman to thrive.

@EEGA

In the note of playing Lookman closer to goal, does that not affect the balance of Finidi's play, which I feel resorts in the wide forwards playing wide, to expand the defensive shape of the opposition, and create room in the center for the team to attack.

If we work with that notion, I feel Childera Ejuke should have been called up because he fits more into the wide playing role than Lookman.

Onuachu has a better goal sense than these guys. He might be slow which is his weakness but when played to his full strength he is a menace. For club football, his only mistake was his desperation to play in England where he found himself in relagation battling Southampton. Asides that he has consistently shown he has every potential to be a good forward player. I know the national team has no time for all that as we want result instantly. But then, coaches know better. At the last AFCON he was our second choice striker to Osimhen, and not Moffi, there is a consistent reason for that even while Moffi came as an earlier replace for Boniface and Onuachu came later to replace Sodiq. So I tell you, if only we can yield to play to his strength which we saw while he was at Belgium. I dare say no Nigerian player dominated the Belgian league like Onuachu did.

Am rewatching the South Africa game and observed that Chukwueze n look man never exchanged any passes and also seem like they were competing with each other
