Curtisaxel10:you have moved from nacho to Osimhen. Strikers miss chances and it is part of the game. Do you know how many chances vardy do miss in a game?. Osimhen still remain our best striker and he prove it already by clinching the highest goal scorer in African nation cup qualifier.. Nor be bean bro! 6 Likes |

I am watching the highlights of Benin vs Nigeria now because of @JohnBullMySon cos I would like very much to confirm his observations and thus his reason for thinking Maduka has better reflexes than Ezoho. I will get back to all of us on the matter. But I noticed something in a 27th minute highlight. Although the Beninois defender was close a world-class player doesn't hit the ball like that. |@Team Ndidi is a superstar. Because of you i'll start looking at them more closely. Attached is a video of some of the highlights of our match vs Benin. At 6:25 of video, Maduka made a bad judgement call there, he could easily have been picking the ball out his net. I can understand it when people question his stability. check: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lMIKwwhuM6s |

12large1:you are just deceiving yourself. Do you think anyone will snatch number 9 shirt from Osimhen? It is not possible. Someone that is doing well for the national team and won highest goal scorer in qualifier will be drop for sadiq or any other striker. You guys are not honest at all. Listen, as far as super eagles is concerned, there are certain players that will never be drop.... Osimhen, Iwobi, ndidi, Chukwueze. E be like say you nor know say na rohr be your coach.

12large1: Lmao. Not under Gernot Rohr. And I don't think He'll bench Osimhen for any of the guys you mentioned as well. The same coach that didn't invite them when he needed 1 point from 2 games, I don't think He'll do so for a more important game like the WC qualifiers. Moreso, he had 5 Goals and 5 Assist from 5 games probably the most Goal contributions in this qualifier. I don't think He'll bench that sort of player for 3 untested guys heading to the WC qualifiers. Buh then it's just my opinion 1 Like |

The problem with us is that we like to pull down our players and hype the one that is not even on the list. As long as the player is not playing he is better than the one playing. Imagine someone saying Kalu will drop Chukwueze to the bench. Beer parlour analyst! 5 Likes |

@JohnBullSon, you have no idea what you are talking about. And i fear for your knowledge of the game. I believe you are talking about the save in the 64th minute by Maduka. His theatrics made that save look better than it should have. Some goalkeepers will even hold onto that. . That being said i fear for your knowledge cos the two scenarios are not the same in any way. Saying they are is quite disingenuous.The save by Maduka was a weak header headed for the corner. There's no way he parries that back into play cos he was a little late to be honest. For the Uzoho save that led to a goal that was ruled offside, that ball was nowhere close to the corner, so it had to be parried back into play. Although I do think he could have done better, i would lay some of the blame on those two defenders that momentarily lost focus and left those two Lesotho players, unless of course, they were creating an offside trap, which could have been the case. You were all over the place, i have proof blablabla. Sorry, that was terrible proof. Find another. JohnBullMySon: 1 Like |

Olulong:don't mind those beer parlour analyst. They prefer untested players to a player who has been tested and trusted in the national team. Someone that ended the qualifier as highest goal scorer. It is either they are trying to catch cruise or they are just arrogant. Instead of them to be glad they have a trusted number 9 that can help them win game they are busy looking for fault. 1 Like |

kellycute: I am the biggest Osimhen fan on this thread, If not the Whole world .... But believe me, after his shoulder surgery, Osimhen has not been 100% clinical. The Osimhen i know would have easily scored a hattrick today... He is that good. He needs to spend a whole lot of time on personal training to help him come back to the scoring Machine that he truly is. Nonetheless, Osimhen is the undisputed number 1 CF of the eagles. Even if we change coach today, He won't be benched for anyone else... Others will play supportive roles as usual. 1 Like |

Thank God someone else noticed it, Iheanacho was often drifting to his wing. The best formations for the Super Eagles with this current set of players are 4-5-1 or 4-3-3. Tolulopefinest: |

Just need to touch on the second half. What most impressed me was the movement of our players. They did well covering each other and opening passing channels for each other. However, we still have a lot of work to do. Iheanacho dropping deep and distributing the ball was impressive especially towards the time he was taking out. He looked well coached. Ndidi covering gaps at the back was also brilliant. Etebo showed immense work rate. Osimhen showed how frightening he is if given room to attack. Rohr needs to work on a system to create spaces for Osimhen. Iwuala looks a genuine talent and he showed it. I was impressed with his skills but needs to work on his weight. Also his use of players. He looked at ease playing with Ebuehi. I was over impressed with the tactical movement and awareness of space by Onuachu. He looked like Rodri of Man City playing the attack. Also covered grounds. Iwobi was so delightful to watch in that second half and looks suited for a possessive playing side. 8 Likes 1 Share |
