chidi1 is right..

But you guys are narrowing it to only partey.

If any Ghanaian player takes a long shot Okoye may not catch or save the shot. The only good thing is Okoye is match fit..

The S.E players must mark and overcrowd any Ghanaian player with the ball in the S.E side of the field with at least 2 players.

Because if they ball watch like they did against Tunisia then S.E will be in trouble and giving Okoye to much work to do.




what are you even saying, is it not the failure of our Dm, and defenders that fails to cover that guy,

still Okoye follow the ball, would had save it too, only for the ball to boun6in his front, he even got a hand to try divert it, but his touch was not strong enough, yet you all wanna crucify him

Chief, here is a link to the match to refresh your memory. Yes, there was a small bounce of the ball, but it did not deviate the trajectory of the ball movement. Okoye's amateurish initial movement in the wrong direction lead to us conceding that goal.

Yea..but have you watched him lately?
I watch him every time, because he hit post against Leicester? Still not impressed but it doesn’t mean we should allow him a clear sight sha. Just saying there’s nothing to be fearful about his shooting

On a serious note, I feel like you guys are not taking this Okoye guy's problem as seriously as it merits. This Okoye guy has a problem with goalkeeper ball positioning . Please rewatch the above highlight attached. You would notice that even in the first goal attempt by the Tunisians, he was poorly positioned. Were it not for the defender that cleared the ball, the Tunisians could have scored in the first half. All his goals conceded while on Super Eagles jersay are very "soft" goals. If our defenders ever have a bad day, we are doomed (the Sierra Leonian game comes to mind). PLEASE REMIND ME OF ANY WORLD CLASS SAVE OKOYE HAS EVER MADE.

In general, I know goalkeepers get better with age. Okoye is only 23 years old. He would get better with time and there is a potential. However, the Super Eagles is not were you learn your craft. It should be were you display it.

Dont think Tosin is on more than £60k or thereabouts.

But when you examine the attributes and unique skill set of Tosin he is in some areas much better than Maguire in my opinion.

Maguire signed a 6 year contract in 2019, which will have numerous clauses that will increase his pay with time. Although Rashford earns more than him.




This then agrees with the fact that ur assertion is wrong.. Because you said that "What you earn in football has a relationship with your quality."
Rushford earns more than Mane

Shaw more than Cancelo

Maguire more than Dias

De gea more than Mendy

De gea and mendy are different issues ,de gea has been a world class GK for seasons and Mendy is new in the game ,so there is no way mendy should even earn close to de gea

Partey has really brushed up his shooting boot lately.... As for Maduka, that guy might just cost us. To make it worse, Ekong,Aina and Omeruo have had some hard time as regards playing time this season and to make it worse,Ndidi is now doubtful.

Okoye has brushed up his saving gloves as well

Partey wey no sabi shoot when he dey wear Ghana jersey go suddenly become David Beckham for qualifiers, but Okoye go shame us.

Person wey no know go think say Okoye never get clean sheet since he returned to his club.

You people are sure Okoye cannot get better or did not get better, but Partey has gotten better.

Then even worse, because Okoye will shame us by conceding, our entire forward line will also be very useless and will not be able to score against Gianluigi Buffon that will be guarding Ghana's post.

Is Ghana's goalkeeper better than Okoye?

Is it only Partey that will play against us?

Everytime one player is constantly harped on for a match, that player always disappears on the day

Abeg make una allow person hear word with Partey. If dem score us, we score them back.

Na only one goal Okoye chop for AFCON in open play and he faced better players than Partey, Partey no score one goal for AFCON, and he no face any better goalie.

Make una mention better people abeg

Does Ghana have a goalkeeper?
