12large1:Westerhoff went to Algiers 90 with just three professional players,Andrew Uwe,Ademola Adeshina and Ivory coast based Rasheed Yekini and came 2nd.The same Westerhoff went to Senegal 92 with solid players but came 3rd but Nigerians rated Senegal 92 team better than Algiers 90 team. Nigerians knows what is football,more reasons that Rohr was sacked.I remember how Shuaib Amodu was sacked,despite getting the results,Nigerians believed Amodu was playing negative football. Eguavoen brand of football has earned him respect amongs fans so let's wait and see maybe he would be judged by winning Afcon or not. 20 Likes |

comodo: We may need employ a setpiece specialist before Qatar. I'm still hammering this aspect since forever of 2013. We still haven't gotten this in the bag. Some team are equal in play but setpiece conversion is the difference and no one would remember who had the better striker or middle if it wins the game for a team. 5 Likes |

I have been highly impressed with Eguavoen team Selections, timely substitution, team performance and style. So far, we have been the best team at this tournament thus far (my opinion) it’s almost like he is listening to super eagles fans because he has been rectifying our complains on Rohr 19 Likes 1 Share |

BascoVanVeli: I don't even know if I should call you generous. Sadiq Umar 7.5? Dude was dancing around 4.0 the entire match, that goal could have only boosted him to a solid 4.5, 5.0 if you want to be generous His misses were criminal, so criminal, I'm very sure we can still arraign him for attempted murder, because I nearly died. You're generous O. The rest of the ratings were good, might have scored Ndah a little higher, as well as Onyekuru, but otherwise, cool. Na you dey talk for the video? 9 Likes |

safarigirl: Haba... His poor game wasn't even due to his misses. It was due to his playing style and poor decision making. He only had two big misses, one was the one-on-one. It was clear the guy was nervous, let's cut him some slack. I've gone in-depth to analyze his game and how he's a confidence player. His gameplay is not sleek or flashy like Awo or Osimhen, but he had presence (which was something Olayinka lacked) and was very unselfish. If he can calm his nerves and sort himself out, he'll come out good. 6 Likes |

drDoom3: I did not say his poor games were solely due to his misses, I simply cited his misses as one of the reasons Awo is not sleek or flashy, not at all. He is bullish, there is absolutely nothing flashy about his play because even Awo has some howlers of his own, but Awo brings other things to the attack, so, you don't even bother so much about his misses. Notice how when Awo is on the pitch, Iheanacho is a lot more present in the box and useful in attack, but when Iheanacho is on the pitch with Sadiq, we see something different. Their chemistry was non-existent. I can't explain this fully, but it is just different when it is AwoNacho. If he is a confidence player, good for him, this is not the kind of place for such a player. When we want to play friendlies, we can get a confidence player. A 7-game tournament is not the place to build confidence, you either bring it along, or you stay home with it. Moving forward, we will not have the luxury of missed chances, misplaced passes, clumsy movements and other mistakes he got up to, we have only one game/stage and we need to bury our chances each time. Perhaps, he can keep his role as substitute, preferably, when we are a few goals up because he is not even a super sub, but it is best if he leaves Starts to the Big Boys that came with their confidence. 6 Likes |

Joebie: Solace is ruthless. If anybody see 8.0, na just because the person did more than was expected Basco really spread out that 7.5, because most of the players were actually between 6.0-7.0, some lower. In fact, he is generous. Some people na first half dem shine, some people na second half dem shine, some people just dey low current the entire time, but in all, they did the business. *Modified Just saw Solace's ratings. Quite ruthless as expected, I think if I were to rate the players, I would be stuck somewhere between Solace and Basco's, one end seems too ruthless, the other, generous. But I wholly agree with that Solace's 4/10 |

I don't wanna compare players, neither do I want to judge Akpoguma, reason being that he got his minutes under Rhor. That said, from the few minutes given to Ndah, it is obvious he is clear off Akpoguma who was below par in the few appearances he has had with Nigeria. Like Komekn once said, 10minutes is enough to tell a good player and a pretender. I will still give Akpoguma that benefit of doubt because I haven't seen him under a good coach. Eguavoen got his calls right here. Where are those ogogoro drinking forumites that were saying that Eguavoen was trynna fill the team with local players because almighty Akpoguma was not considered? 3 Likes 1 Share |
