Philosopher1979:
Aribo and onyeka.
Supernerd and everybody in the house how will a midfield combination of aribo and onyeka look like.
Also, I suspect rohr wants to try Samuel kalu as an attacking midfielder
So I foresee aribo, onyeka and Samuel kalu in midfield.
I want a thorough analysis with advantages and disadvantages

Ndidi, Aribo and Onyeka is our best midfield enough of the Iwobi nonsense, I have been saying it that midfield has everything, balance, ball control and creativity and it allows Aribo to arrive late into the ball and serve as a shadow striker without having to worry about defensive responsibilities, if we had a midfield of Ndidi, Onyeka and Aribo the Algerians won't have seen it easy to dominate us

Exactly
The painful thing is that Rohr does not even know this....he does not even think the team needs an AM

He told you this??

You can't play with Ndidi, Aribo and frank and expect your midfield to be balance and creative. As far as SE is concerned, Iwobi is very crucial to our set up. You can't displace him. If everything works out the way I hope it should, I want a midfield trio of Ndidi, Nwakali and Iwobi. Now that is a balanced midfield. But oga Nwakali still dey wilderness, I pray he ARRIVE soon

Iwobi gas 9 goals for super eagles please don't disrespect big alex. Also, the iwobi of Nigeria is totally different from the iwobi of EPL. Just play him as an 8 or 10 and you get the best out of him

This lagos state governor is annoying
You wanna keep hosting the super eagles and u didnt build a good pitch as if he doesn't watch epl to see the standard pitch this players play in europe

Akpabio recognised this and he built a good pitch in Uyo and even took Late Keshi counsel not to use artificial turf.

Don't know why NFF and sport minister can't take this matches to Uyo any state that wanna host the super eagles should have something better than Uyo stadia

Is the Uyo Stadium pitch still as good as it used to be?

I don't think the Lagos stadium pitch is that bad .. Didn't you see how much effort the Lagos State government put into renovating that Mobolaji Johnson stadium for the Aisha Buhari tournament??

meanwhile,here's a recent picture of the Teslim Balogun stadium pitch....A friend of mine sent it a few days ago when she was there...

Iwobi may be good against Benin and CAR but he would not work against your Algerias and Senegals a huge factor about a midfield is its work off the ball and I believe the Ndidi, Onyeka and Aribo trio will hold its own against African and European heavyweights and Aribo is a creative outlet and you want to play Ndidi, Nwakali, Iwobi? grin grin grin that is even weaker than our current midfield

No be everyday you go dey play Liberia and Sierra Lone, Iwobi leaves our midfield open when he plays and leaves large spaces for Ndidi to defend, coupled with the fact that he struggles to hold on to the ball, a competent midfield will be licking their lips at the prospect of playing him

Since when?
How many games has onyeka played for SE for u to conclude?
As far as SE is concerned,Iwobi is still better than both onyeka and aribo.
U can check their stats in green n white colours

You nailed it. The best potential trio!

Could it be the camera or the pitch whenever the team plays there....the stadia is bad to watch

For the Uyo stadia think the stadia is till okay Awka United plays there.... the lasf the super eagles played in Lagos u saw how the stadia look forget about the rain in europe it rain during matches and the stadium still look decent

I just wish our authorities can do things right for once

No be you dey talk down on Ndidi, Iwobi and other foreign borns here, it comes to Nwakali you are forming pity party, gerrarahere!



Phew!

What kind of man are you ? It's either 1.) you have vision problems, 2.) you have comprehension problems, or 3.) you are not a very smart individual! This will be the second time I am correcting you about your use of grammar. What do you understand by the phrase "talking down on Ndidi " How many times will I say it here that I don't fancy Ndidi because his ball playing ability is poor , when did I ever jubilated because Ndidi had a poor game ? It's like you have "itchy fingers"

And when did I ever jubilated over Iwobi's lackluster performance at Everton ? Has Iwobi been impressive at his club ? No! Has Iwobi been able to hold down our attacking midfielder position ? No. Why would I lie simply to make you feel comfortable ?

So , if I criticized Iwobi and Ndidi based on facts then it expressly means to you Nwakali must be mocked and laughed at when he didn't perform ? Are you even a sensible person ?

He is a play maker a complete 10 when moved upfront

He makes defensive split passes at ease
So who does that in current Super eaglez set up

I find it hard to rate Iheanacho as a striker because of his propensity to drop deep, and the fact he struggles as a lone striker.

So rather than a out-and-out striker, I view him as a deep-lying forward/false 9.

Osimhen, Ejuke, Onyekuru, Onuachu, Iwobi, Sadiq Umar, Dessers.

Osimhen is a better striker.
Ejuke is a better winger.

But there is no nigerian player better than Iheanacho. World class.
