andrewbaba44:this is not true, I have watch Huesca last four matches and he played as a deep lying playmaker in two of them, there DM is poor on the ball, so he is the one that drops deep to collect the ball from there CB, in one he played as a DM(kinda like a regista) in a 442 formation and the last as a CM in a 442 formation. I don't know where you got your AM and winger from. Earlier in the season he was playing as a RM in a 442, but he still had the task of receiving the ball from there CB. 2 Likes |

humility33:Hmm...do we need to blame Eguavoen for this but Rohr...recalling Ighalo was a big fraud and Shehu making the team on versatility is another tales by moonlight. Anyway we just need to support the team but post Afcon we will surely see new players coming into the fold. |

Pls I just dey reason why inclusion of Olisa Ndah over Kevin Akpoguma...pls I need urgent reply cos I thought the guy was having it so good in SA league but going through his performances so far....NO NO and funny enough someone said he is better than Balogun and Zuchy my man said NO reasonable coach will overlook Ndah.

He scored 3 goals in that tourney 2 against south Africa and one against Mali that was the beginning of the reign of the relatively unknow Belgium based forward then I just can't wait for Pinnick to leave through I will applaud him and rohr for recruiting lot of this foreign born players but instilling discipline and using the coaching roles as gifts to his friends is something that is uncalled for Well lets support the team...if Coach Austin is fully in charge...I trust him to be a nonsense man he was a member of the coaching crew in 2004 together with Christain Chukwu they took that tough decision 2 Likes |

do4luv14:Ndah like I've gathered isn't that bad going by the reviews of S/Africans (pirate fans) on him. According to them, he's the next big thing after Van Djik. I haven't seen him play but the reviews says alot about the player. I only wishing the team a successful camping and luck during the campaign. I'm just happy we have a proper CM in the midfield that can collect passes from his DM and send to AM to initiate attacks. I'm feeling we'll be playing a 3 man midfield or 3 man MF with a SS. My concerns on the list are Musa, Noble (who has not played a game), Simon, Ighalo (off and on). Aside that it's a very lethal squad that if they click as a unit and play to instructions should beat teams well. Maybe the plan is to outscore the opponent. 3 Likes |

Kog45:He's has played 13 games in SA not 3. Just type his name on Twitter search and see how he's been raved about as the signing of the year for pirates. Sometimes ones break out season comes from unlikely places. Mikel played in SA and didnt cut it much till he left for Lyn Oslo. I have not see him play but I hope to and no much YouTube videos on him playing for pirates. The S/A fears he's too much of a player to play in the PSL and maybe signed up to Europe after the AFCON tournament. 1 Like |

Kog45:Ndah doesn't play like the regular CBs. If you watch his game or few highlights you'll see he's a ball carrying CB likely he was converted from a DM into a CB. His handling of the ball tells the guy must have played in a DM role previously. Hard to beat in the air and not shaky 1 Like |

Astrid4:First of all, if for instance, a coach prefers having a player that makes runs with the ball into spaces, and that player plays in the PSL, are you saying the coach should not use the player to play a bundesliga star who does not make runs with the ball? If the player does not fit the coach's philosophy or lacks the skillset he wants, you can not force it on the coach. The philosophy is king. |

Astrid4: Over time, we have seen where skillset trumps club status and experience. Seydou Keita was one of the most gifted midfielders in the game. Had a stellar time at Sevilla. However, when Guardiola came on board, he preferred the skillset of Sergio Busquets who was a Barcelona B player. Busquets understanding how to keep the ball with simple passes while in tight spaces made Guardiola prefer a Barca B player over a La Liga top star. Shay Given was to me the best stopper in the Premier League. When Mancini was to have his first season, he did the unthinkable. Said, the young Manchester City keeper who was on loan with Birmingham will fight with the brilliant Shay Given for the number one position as goalkeeper for Manchester City. The preseason was crazy. Both played each half per game. At the end of it, Mancini chose the young boy over a Premier League top recognized shot stopper. In the debut game against Tottenham, Joe Hart pulled one of the best shows of a goalkeeper. You can see the clip below. I think he won man-of-the-match. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KaHY6FaQW7U So please, it is not about club or status. 1 Like |

Aside of the Akpoguma situation, how come no one is talking about the inclusion of shehu, Ahmed musa ahead of more deserving players like ebuehi, nwakaeme, ejaria, Lookman etc.. some of us were complaining about Rohr horrible selection and eguavoen decided to continue from where Rohr stopped. I’m tired everything in this country is politics and I am glad that, slowly by slowly my interest at SE is decreasing. Eventually, if we continue these nepotism, tribalistic selection, I will totally discontinue and sign off…. Ike agulam |

ABIODUN105: ![]() ![]() ![]() This thing you are saying here carries heavyweight. In the tactical video, Eguavoen listed three players who I believe are key to his ideas. Chukwueze, Osimhen, and Chidera Ejuke. These guys know themselves when it comes to the field of play and Kelechi Nwakali was a key player for them. If it comes to understanding, Kelechi Nwakali fits into the picture. Interesting point. I hope Nwakali can pull a very good shift in camp. 1 Like |

jihday: Westerhoff brought a 16 years old player from Ranchers Bees to the Super Eagles camp when we had lots of more senior players. The young man became key for the team and later became a top star in England. Later even won a man-of-the-match performance against Manchester United in the FA Cup. His name, Daniel Amokachi. It is not by club but quality to offer the team. |

12large1: Making drastic changes, especially dropping senior players can cause drastic confusion in the camp and the team. Dropping one can prove easy but dropping three can become catastrophic. Eguavoen is just starting and he can not make drastic changes few weeks to a major tournament. |
