Odunayaw:
Iwobi?

Oh, I just saw the moniker

IDENNAA:
Iwobi, Umar and Aribo is a no no for me

Odunayaw:
Just look at Uzoho

Ndidi looked at him like "you fool"

JayromWrites:


Can't navigate that link

Marjoribanks:
It is a friendly and Sadiq came in before our 2nd goal. Removing him might kill is confidence. The coach did the right thing in that moment. So rest! lolll!

Joebie:
Make una free Umar. He did not deserve a call up in the first place.

Tobichimezie:
Peseiro is really a low IQ manager sha, why call up a match rusty Aribo when there are better options available? why can't we ever get basic things right in this country?

Nwakali

Folorunsho

Ifeanyi Matthew

These are far better players than Aribo who can't even get enough minutes in the freaking championship for crying out loud. Also the likes of Uzoho, Chukwueze and Ebuehi need to be phased out or benched.

gannod:




Chukwueze is too childish. No wonder they don't want the Coach to be sacked. He condones a lot of rubbish from these guys. I have always maintained we need a tactically sound Coach going forward. These guys are too non-challant for my liking. Imagine the number of chances they refused to bury today!

AndSunGorilla:

I dey tell you .

Hopefully, we play better and get a good result against Mozambique. Not a bad game from the lads, the Saudis scored goals from 2 free kicks while we wasted multiple chances and thwarted many goal scoring plays. I won't fault JP in my own opinion, if we perform same wag against Mozambique then we can be justified to shout and yelp.

IDENNAA:
Who was the guy that replaced Ebuehi.....good player

chuks404:
So we cannot win Saudi Arabia. What for heavens sake be this. I hope osimhen didn't get injured oooo. At least make baba go back him club in peace

Starboytwo:
Good. I want to see the attack without osimhen

Boniface will be around for a long time. Fine baller.

AndSunGorilla:

He was called up to replace the injured Awoniyi

Jpes na dust bin

Even me wey be layman for football tactics noticed that in the second half mancini crowded the midfield with more bodies

If u were observant while watching the game u will notice that our defenders weren’t passing out from the back easily as they did in the first half through the midfield, instead the resorted to low straight passes from defense to our attacking pivot

In football of this era midfield win games. Iwobi and ndidi were seriously shocked in the 2nd half which result to players pressing them down once they receive a pass

IMH opinion the 2 players that changed the game for us were Simon and Nacho

Uzoho na giraffe 🦒 and it’s high time our national team handlers accept this and start searching for a better keeper in if it’s from the local league. I will even easily forgive an NPFL goal keeper making such primary school errors instead of a pro who hv featured in the afcon,uel and World Cup

AndSunGorilla:

What was wrong with Argentina who lost against this low Saudi team, can you imagine Messi and his teamates?

Odunayaw:
I don't think anyone can hold an intellectually sound argument to fault JP in this match. He wouldn't have entered the pitch to convert chances.

However we could have seen out the game easily. This match didn't deserve a draw

wayodude:
Based on all performances under Jose Peseiro, the Super Eagles will NOT win the next AFCON.

The 2 reasons for this are as follows
1. Refusal to try out fresh options and ideas in midfield. Even when the team starts off on the front foot, once the other team commits more men in the midfield we totally lose control of the game, relying solely on athletism and luck.

2. This one is less of the coach's fault. We simply do not have a reliable option in goal. You cannot win anything without a decent goalkeeper. Nothing. Left to me I will start afresh in that position inviting 3 new options from the local league. They CANNOT be worse. I have seen Amas Obasogie of Bendel Insurance in the CAF Confederation Cup and he has to be involved.

My third point is not really a reason why we won't win the AFCON, but, I think the team dynamic is better without Osimhen. Maybe better for the team if he comes from the bench in the second half.

Sha, we are in trouble.

IDENNAA:


I am tired of Chukwueze.

chuks404:
baba, the guy lacks good game management. Ehen yes but we were up at some point in the game. Why not change the formation, mind you this is a friendly, there are other guys that arw supposed to come in the midfield. This man played virtually the same formation throughout. All he did was man to man change. The man has nothing to offer. I dey pity who is thinking nigeria will win afcon

M7even:
90 percent of us here knew that free kick will be a goal. It's almost 2 years and we still have a goalkeeper problem. Fine, the ball deflected off Bassey, and Bassey caused the freekick that led to the first goal and again the keeper should have done better with the first goal.

Truidstar:
😂😂😂😂😂 Because of friendly match?

AndSunGorilla:

He was called up to replace the injured Awoniyi

Pidginwhisper:
Boni is good forget. And Moses Simon is better than Eluku

AndSunGorilla:
One of Ndidi's best games for us. He has really impressed me today.
