The major problem in a 4-4-2 formation is risking being overun in midfield, those that watched leicester vs chelsea would have observed that without tielemans in that game leicester really struggled in that game as neither ndidi or soumary could control the tempo of the game, until maddison was subbed in...so for us to be effective with that formation we would need a cm who can control the tempo of the game, make tackes and be a good ball progressor.. Presently i dont think any of our cm has that skill set.. I also dont think a mid pairing of ndidi-aribo would be effective in a 4-4-2 formation |

Tinneh: My major problem with 4-4-2 is that it pushes wingers into midfielders and it just puts you in a defensive mode automatically |

Tinneh: You see players like alhassan Yusuf, Nwakali, ovie Ejaria somewhat have this skill set and this is why we have been shouting they should be in the team. skill set and tactics can be more important than where a player plays. In fact, Akinkunmi Amoo can play both as a winger and an attacking midfielder and so he can just play in the wings and help out in midfield at the same time. |

lovewins:decent football knowledge but not modern enough to me Made a lot of reference on resurrecting our traditional wing play and expansive football which I hinted on few days ago nothing more nothing less Was expecting to hear the tactical input that may be required if the opponent thwart our traditional game play but didn’t get any, may be that will be addressed when need be There is another point he made which I concur and noticed as one of the issues bedeviling the team for some time now, lack of physical imposing players as we use to have before. I know many will argue that it’s irrelevant but in the African scene it’s goes a long way in helping team must especially the least rated teams.like he said physique mixed with technique and speed will be 100% With what eguavoen said in the video with regards of how he wants his midfielders to play I think iwobi will be a jewel to him because the Everton man doesn’t shy away from getting the ball or making spaces for opening but very good at one touch football and long passes On the other side ndidi will learn a lot from the coach because I believe from the video that he has few things ndidi needs to add to his game Also as a coach who loves his full backs up the pitch aina will definetely shine under him 2 Likes |

If we play 4-4-2, teams like South Africa or those North African teams will play basic triangles around our players until we chop goals like sardine. If we had like a talent like Scholes or Gerrard who can pass and dictate the game on their own, I won't be too worried. 4 Likes |

TheGoodJoe: You missed the point I bolded. He said our Nigerian style has always been indirect with a little bit of direct to dissect the opponent depending on their style of play. In a nutshell, expect him to play a mix of both with the indirect being the dominant pattern. |

I pray this new mask doesn't affect his play. I hope Victor doesn't become too careful. Because this is just too early for his career. |
Re: "The Super Eagles Thread: The Road To AFCON 2023, 2025 And 2026 World Cup by TheGoodJoe(m): 2:03pm On Dec 21, 2021 |
realpoacher: I talked about that. Indirect means we will play possessively. However, Eguavoen expects us to always exploit gaps as soon as they are created with direct play. |

TheGoodJoe: I think he might prefer Frank Onyeka style of play based on he’s a good passer of the ball, very confident and also a playmaker. . If he wants his creative midfielders operating from the deep, then the best option he can get is in Nwakali. |

12large1:Any formation with d right and perfect players to execute it will certainly change people's perspective about d formation . The question is, do we have the right players to properly execute d 442 formation n get a consistent result out of it? Whether it b modern or not won't matter. |

andrewbaba44: Tega Abraham has been a consistent, continuous and outstanding Striker and goal scorer from day one since he started playing football. As a mere teenager he smashed the Championship at Btistol City and was a top goal scorer, he did the same at Aston Villa. In his first full Of Premier League season 2019/20 he scored 15 Goals in the EPL, he was Chelsea top goal scorer. last season he was also Chelsea top goal scorer despite being relegated to the bench for Lesser players, for reasons UNKNOWN. There is absolutely no comparison of Tega and KC one has been consistently outstanding and the other consistently mediocre. Tega has gone to Seria A and has continued. What has KC done over 5 seasons in the EPL with Leicester after 106 games just 22 goals. He had a very good season 2020/21 with 12 goals. After 3 seasons of shambolic impotency, he finally came alive. He deservedly got a lucrative contract extension until 2024. I said then that the true test will be CONSISTENCY and CONTINUITY in the 2021/22 season if indeed there has been true progression, not just a one season wonder or flash in the pan. There are 22 games left of the season can he score 10 goals before season end ,that would be outstanding. He has played 10 games and scored 1 goal. What you practice is bias and double be standard creating a different standard of measurement to suit a Nigerian player. KC was classed as a big flop by almost be all pundits and media outlets. Has that tag changed ,only time will tell. You introduced the comparison of Tega Abraham not me. They are on Totally different levels in every department of the game. Below YouTube clip just be to remind you. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7SqyfCOlMKk 3 Likes |
