I know highlight can be flattering but this guy is good. And there is Maguire raking up millions for playing rubbish
I think he should be invited sha...

The Mexico that beat us on Sunday got whooped 3-0 by Uruguay today. We are so far behind.

Going forward, we will need to make difficult choices. Ekong is not good enough, simple. We need to find a good CB or two along with Ajayi who is decent but not spectacular.

Moffi should forget about the National team in the near future. The competition is just so much better.

Dessers is good, but I don't think he can displace any of Osimhen, Sadiq, Awoniyi in that order when it comes to quality. When the guys arrive, he will find it difficult to get any gametime, though he may probably still be in the team.

Iwobi and Aribo can man that midfield. We just need an Ndidi back, or at least an Onyeka. I feel like this game was the best I've seen of Iwobi creatively in the SE, my guy gave at least 3 delicious through passes Moffi and Dessers squandered.

Simon is simply not good enough. He is not consistent, you don't know what you get from him. Also, he loses the ball way too much.

3-5-2 might work with Osimhen from what I saw today. If we had an Osi and say an Awo/Sadiq pair today, we might be seeing a different result. I was happy we created a lot of chances against a decent side, our bane in the past few years has been creating enough chances.

Overall we need to be more precise in our play. We have players who are good on the ball, so we need to play the ball on the ground and pass our way to our opponents' goal.

ekong needs serious competition in the team and balogun should be allowed to retire

If I were to be peseiro I will blood in younger center backs that will lead the team in the nearest future. The likes of akpoguma,osaze,bassey,ozonwafor etc should be the center backs to choose from going forward with an eye on the future. I believe before the end of next season more players will emerge in europe which will widen our pool the more

charlesemeka85:
When I talk about bassey here many see it that he is hyped because he’s foreign born

We are blessed and lucky to have this kid in our ranks. He reminds me of a young taribo west then in his first European club which is auxerre in ligue 1

I bet you guys if bassey moves to the epl as rumored he will only spend 2 seasons with a mid table club before being snapped up by any of the top 6 clubs

As for this home based training cones we carry go US, it’s high time the nff and 9ja egunje coaches stop wasting taxpayers money on carpenters. Even that opportunity and privilege would hv been given to few of the U20 lads that did well in niger inorder to sharpen their skills and exposure

Blueelf:


It's just 1 game

gSW had them going into the 4th

BascoVanVeli:


They got drilled in the 4th. 40 to 16.

U are definitely right that it was only one game but that game was at Golden State.

charlesemeka85:

Well said!!!
To me, Balogun has performed well in recent times compared to Ekong

Seems some officials have an issue with Akpoguma because of some scenes pre- Afcon.

I hope they extend invitations to the younger center backs subsequently.

Blueelf:




What do you expect fr a carpenter? Unpolished football of course

Moses Simon needs to tell us who he is bribing to remain in the national team. He is t even good enough for the bench

I'm of the opinion that VIC MO could offer our attacks good options.... whether we like it or not, we still need him

charlesemeka85:
yes bro but the guys were impressive. Peseiro I must confess is doing a good job so far

It’s been long I saw the team play this way

elyte89:



Rohr played very well too in his friendlies most especially in his early years on d job..so me no dey moved at all

Curtisaxel10:
Honestly, I think we should forget about scorelines at the moment and focus on gameplay. I saw a lot of positives in the game.

I commend Peseiro for trying to have the team pass the ball out from the back. Unlike the ballooning galore we had before. All we need now are decent technical CMs/DMs and the soup is ready .

Blueelf:
I must also had that our defense leaves too many spaces .....just too much space
Ekong can't marshal a defense......he is just not good enough

Otherwise, the boys tried apart from wasted chances

COOL10:
Honestly speaking, the boys played well in the 2nd halves of both matches. I wasn't expecting them to beat Ecuador, I just wanted them to play well with promise and they did just that.

They'll get better with time.

yinkeys:

Really. Do you know how many times Uzoho saved us ?

Dis statement of dey will get better. With time sounds like a scam to me....70percent of dis team have been playing together for d past 7years,for aw long will dey keep rebuilding and get better?

COOL10:


My emphasis was on the 2nd halves. Uzoho had more trouble in the first than he did in the second.

Boomgist:
He definitely has not performed well in recent times but to think that he is bribing someone to remain in the team is a No.

Someday football marries you and other days it leaves you, let's hope he rediscover form.

Him dribble Dy Sha vex me
