oyibo abi albino wall

Our 2 CBs are wack abeg most especially ekong
I wonder why Ekong is unstable. I remember Algeria in Afcon saying their coach told them to pressure the CBs because they're jittery.

Lastly, I wonder why players don't make signals or at least scream at one another either in pidgin or one of our languages on what they have in mind & want the other person to do.

baba I prefer him on the cm position since we have a capable one in ndidi at the moment

Frank suits African opposition because of his robust and all action style of play

With ndidi sitting deep, frank as the ball carrier and iwobi as the creator our midfield will be balanced against any team in the world

Ndidi is excellent in screening and protecting the back four while frank has the energy and agility to move the ball forward as well as assist ndidi is covering ground, also he is very good in high pressing while iwobi should be the one to link the midfield and the attack

With frank aribo and etebo’s place will be the bench

You ain't wrong sha. I just wish he or Alhassan could do it like Algeria's Ismael Bennacer

They may need to watch the Italians to know how to do that on the pitch. Cos they just wave hands at each other and continue. I miss Enyeama in this ginger aspect. Maduka doesn't even look like. Neither Oyinbo Wall. Musa? grin

Awaziem is error prone, but he is more rugged and never jittery.

But Nigeria won't sack coach

Ppogbae:
During the 2018 World Cup qualifiers, Croatia lost to Iceland in the 1st round in exactly the same fashion as us (they conceded a 90' goal). They also lost to Turkey, fired their coach, but managed to edge Greece in the playoffs. The rest, as they say, was history.


Can the Super Eagles bounce back and continue their march to glory?

You forget club coaches can buy players that suit their philosophies and drill them every other weekend?

Why Klopp no continue with those average guys and try to win the EPL or UCL

Which players did Raniera sign before he lead Leicester to that title run? .. And that clueless coach in Manchester that has signed many players to suit his philosophy,what has he won??

National team coaches don't have the luxury of selecting the player they want, but they sure have a large pool to select from too.. Abi it isn't the same Italian team that failed to qualify for the world cup that Mancini took over and rejuvenated?


Meanwhile,what philosophy does Rohr have that require certain players to suit it? the man is choking his squad with defenders...Which kind Philosophy be that? cheesy

Call me a conspiracy theorist, but I think the team played well when that criminal Salisu Yusuf was part of the coaching staff.
Maybe I'm overthinking things...

I was going to say this ever since he has been sacked Rhir tactics has been questionable.

You'll be hearing Monster Machine up and down. #Radarara. Only to lose to ordinary CAR at home.

Bring that Alhassan wey Dem dey hype like the new iniesta now, na nonsense e go play.

Abeg, why is nobody talking about Aribo, that guy seems untouchable but he really adds nothing to this team. Just backward passes . Nothing else. Moreover, that guy is damn too slow. He lags like a phone of 500MB RAM


I have talked about Aribo before here and said he doesn't bring anything to the team but we have some bunch of deluded people who are praise singers for foreign born players. It didn't take long for them to hand the number 10 jersey to him and anointed him Okocha's replacement. The the inferiority in the African man is very deep ,therefore , anything foreign is superior to their own.

Die that rubbish stats you pull from god knows where. Not until 2019/20 ndidi never got the better of kante stats wise, make biased no blind your eye.

Moses most important player, hazard plays baseball, he was so important how did it go when they had a change of coach.

No talk go iwobi side self he wasn’t even the best player in his wing not to talk of the entire midfield in arsenal. Everton was scammed big time.

I’ll slaughter all the players for today match except ejuke.

The entire backline needs to be dropped from the national team.

Same balogun and ekong, mostly balogun when no get heart to push ball for rangers come here they form Porsche and lose ball steady.

Guy no matter what your say we’ll not win afcon in the next 3 edition except all of these players are gone. Let’s not kid ourselves about World Cup we’re just going there to make up numbers.

Imagine eze playing with these thrash heap.

Why don't you drop the stats for that year and compare that of Ndidi with other DMs?

Did I say Moses was Chelsea player that year? I said he was an important member of the squad... You can't deny that fact cus it was made clear! Iwobi was starting games for arsenal... All that support your logic of having players in top teams, so why are you trying to run away from it?
Your darling Rohr was presented with an opportunity to send a tired Argentina home and clinch the round of 16 ticket,but in the usual fashion,he bottled it...

Trash talk the players all you want...after this international break,they will return to their clubs and churn out decent performance...Then by November,your darling Rohr will gather them again and make them play inshallah football...

Danielnino00:


Ndidi was statistically the best DM in the premier league...prove me wrong with the stats used to rate DMs...and when did Pogba become a DM?? Moses was a glorified wingback that was the best player in that dominant Chelsea team, wasn't he? Did you not just say our players aren't in top clubs? I gave you Moses and Iwobi as examples, you reject am... what's your point?

And you mentioned Onuachu as if you won't have added him to the list of players you bashed if he had played today...

Your post is a pathetic attempt to discredit the effort of our players who are obviously doing well enough at their clubs,so as to make the white fraud look good... You failed! Keshi took a team of very average players,some of them who were home based or playing in obscure leagues and won us the AFCON and qualified for the world cup round of 16. He took a relatively unknown Togo team to the world cup...
There's plenty of evidence out there to support the fact that a good manager that knows his onions would get the best out of his team, regardless of how many average players are there....
Your darling Rohr got outclassed by coaches of CAR, Sierra Leone and Madagascar in the space of 2 years..All those teams collectively can't even boost of one player in a top tier Europe top 10 league...


So , in period when Moses played for Chelsea he was their best player? You meant the wing back Moses or another one?

Modafokas were making excuses for him saying that it was the bad pitches affecting him and they always threw in his flash-in-the-pan performance against Brazil, as a point. Our number 10 ought to be hallowed, but I think the desecration started with the very pompous and over hyped African Guadiola. If Paul Onobi and Gabriel Okechukwu could pull on our no10 shirt, then why not Aribo? grin

Hahaha.....naa , bro. A midfield of Ndidi-Onyeka-Iwobi will still not work because Iwobi will become the weak link. Why do we keep mistaking Iwobi for an attacking midfielder. Yes , Iwobi had scored some important goal but we expect him to create play but he doesn't have that ability. Invite Nwakali , Amoo and Obinna. Iwobi can never function against a high pressing side, period. His ball carrying is piss poor .

Am I the only one who thinks Onyeka's display today made him look like the better DM for eagles ahead of Ndidi? Being a DM isn't just about interceptions and tackles, and Onyeka showed it today with more flair. Ndidi has never been this impressive to me, playing for eagles
Onyeka cannot b trusted for now,
this is d kind of flair that mikel agu came with in his first march,n was found out in his subsequent games.

Onyeka is no way near ndidi as far as defensive midfield is concerned in SE for now.
in fact we should not try it against any top team.
A DM need to do his primary job first b4 showing off.
Re: "The Super Eagles Thread: The Road To AFCON 2025 And 2026 World Cup by ChrisKels: 11:35pm On Oct 07, 2021
Ejuke SEEMS to be the most mature of all our winger forwards. Chuks is my boy, but Ejuke edges him in trickery. Knowing that the team is deficient, a more tactical coach would try Ejike on the AM position, placing Iwobi on the left wing. But our coach na real muuuuu!

They know Aribo has not proven himself worthy to start nor wear the number 10 jersey but they are too ashamed to admit it here. They hyped him so much that they ended up devaluing him because much was expected. I can see through these foreign born like a sieve....they are not better than we can produce, just a better system.
