Sir,NPFL keeper is the answer cos we still have Enyeamas in NPFL but imagine picking John Noble a third keeper with Enyimba just like having Ezenwa then who hardly played for his club.

We lost quality keeper the day Ikeme was diagnose with cancer but instead of deep searching we went for Uzoho who was keeping in 2nd Segunda and later 3rd division Okoye....I can say it anywhere that super eagles really helped Okoye career,nothing special about him.

If we believe we are lacking quality outfield players in NPFL but not keepers.All they need is coach Amusa Adisa treatment for Enyeama,Ejide and Aiyenugba but Alloy Agu is not ready.

Time for Alloy Agu to go.

I know you for that

It’s just that I am not happy

You can be unhappy o, the footballers sef, they are not happy.

That is why I would rather blame the people that I know are always happy, irrespective of results in tournaments like this; Nigerian politicians.


It's Iwobi I really feel for in all these things, it's his own DMs I want to enter, just so I can let him know not to beat himself up, because he will be getting trolled from Nigeria to England.

My problem is why did we panic and go all out at the 50th minute ?

That onrush worn out our players
And destabilize the game plan

I do not like people who resort to trolling their team after a loss.

It is such a weak mentality, such a loser mentality. It must be tough going through life, always expecting to lose
Being a realist does not mean that I'd become negative. Professionally one is trained to see loop holes, faults and flaws but balance demands that one does not stay negative. It's the mindset I want to understand, you come in when we lose and have a good laugh. Then stay away when we win. It's not the SE that is the target. It is we, fans of the SE whose joy he despises.

Baba, nothing he tried worked!!!

Tunisia's game plan was obvious to the untrained eye right from the first minute, and what was Eguaveon's answer?

See, player to player, the Tunisians are inferior to us so the only difference tonight was the input of the coaches.

Just watch as the Tunisians will be demystified in their next match.

We clearly would have won the game. So, you can not say what the manager did, did not work. The manager can only make right decisions. The rest is beyond his power.

Yes brother, i expected the coach to tweak his tactic at the beginning of that second half because the Tunisians were draging the game to suit there purpose and we played into their hands, they were not in a hurry to counter us and had clip all our dangerous outlets and were just waiting for that one opportunity to score and thereafter bring their playbook time wasting and frustrating football to play.
Our coach should have yanked kelechi off and push Aribo upfront and bring in Nwakali or onyeaka to shore up the midfield and take over the midfield lost to them at the last quarter of the first half.

By changing tactics in the first half, we could have.

you're right that Ihenacho couldn't press due to the yellow card but he can finish so its either him and Awoniyi come out before the 2nd half or Awoniyi comes out before the 2nd half and Ihenacho moves to the main striker and Onyeka moves to Ihenacho's position...

Nigeria's midfield trio of Aribo, Onyeka and Ndidi none of them must never ever be benched and Nwakali should be coming on for Onyeka or vice-versa..

Chukwueze should have been replaced by Onyekuru..

Musa needs to retire so that Amoo, Lookman or Dessers can have space...

Either ways, the coach messed up big time.

Chuks didn’t live up to expectations due to how we played. No support from the midfield. Iheanacho ought to have been doing that but Aribo would have done better if he was allowed to play and Onyeka takes his place in the midfield.

The coach is tactically inept.

I think we showed energy today. Everyone. From Aina, Omeruo, Ekong, Sanusi, Ndidi, Aribo, Iwobi, Olayinka, Awoniyi, Iheanacho, Sadiq.

This is literally all that played today and I can attest they really showed effort.
Where did you see energy bro. We were limp from the first blast of the whistle.

How is he tactically inept? Eguavoen with a man down took the game to them and showed them a good game. Na wa.

Our pressure came from tactical switches. If there is any thing you want to criticise, it is not tactics.

One game were stupid refereeing and some ill luck cost a win, we tear everything down, instead of seeking continuity, it wasn't fluke Nigeria won 3 matches.... we have a good plan A in terms of play, now we find a good plan b and c, though we haven't even fully adapted the planA, when we do, African teams will smell thier asses to win us...
we would be more lethal with goalscoring chances, and only fluke goals or penalty can get them goals against us. Nigeria will end games with 5-0 , 6-0 wins soon. Watch this space.
Drop emotions and do a technical analysis abeg .


We have a good team .. continuity is the answer.

I wouldn't say the coach is tactically inept. More like the coach did not recognize when his tactics expired and when he needed to change up things here and there. He got a good tactic, but he was too rigid with him and the Tunisians capitalized on it to bite us.

You're in your feelings.

Eguavoen has to stay. He'll learn from this and will get better.

Meanwhile, there's nothing wrong in making substitutions in the first half.

It only means you are adapting to counter the tactics of the opposition having seen how they set up to play.

Eguavoen should have shored up the midfield right from the 1st half.
Ppp
Oga, when exactly is he going to learn? He has been there before remember?

I'm not bitter that we lost, I'm just disappointed that our coach cannot come up with something to turn the game.

Wait till u see how ordinary these Tunisians will look in their next game.

Watching our first 3 games, u always knew that when our wingers are cut off, then we become ineffective.

One would have tot that the coach had a different plan in his locker but it turned he didn't.

Most of them are Nigerians. In all honesty we have taken this trolling thing as a national past time. Other nations just do it once in a while, only Nigerians, perhaps as a way of letting off the pain induced by living in a harsh society, roll the trolling drums everyday. It makes Twitter a place for stupid people and mindless idiots to thrive. There's a strong Herd mentality on that space.

They said we don't need Victor Moses, that all our wingers are better than him. Some say he's proud and lacks commitment.

They said we don't need Odion Ighalo, that all our strikers are better than him. That he's old and should have never come out of retirement.

Some said we don't need Dessers, that he's a broiler and not suited for African football.

Someone on Twitter told Dennis that Ekong would come back with the winners medal and he would have none. Some even celebrated his recent shortcomings.


Nigerians, I hail una. Let us enjoy our defeat.

Chuks is a winger so he doesn't really need support from the midfield he needs support from the fullback playing his wing but Nigeria was more focused on Moses Simon wing instead of using both wings and Chuks was playing like the fullback today...

Who limped? Is it Ekong or Omeruo? Is it Sanusi that was up and down the field? Definitely not Aina. He put in a mad shift today. I am sure you are not talking about Ndidi. He was a monster workhorse today. Is it Awoniy that was covering right and left of the field? Is it Iheanacho that the Tunisians even had to go physical. He was up and down the field.

I know you are not talking of Simon. We can not debate how had he worked today. Aribo. Come on. He gave his all. Is it Olayinka or Sadiq? Definitely not. What of Chukwueze? He tried now.

So how did we limp when these guys gave us full energy.
