I saw Peseiro play Iwobi in Jorginho styled midfield anchor man. Every man and his dog knows Nwakali is the best guy to play this role. Something he's done all his career. No way on God's green earth is Iwobi better than him in that role.
For me, that's the only criticism I have for the coach. However, regardless personnel, we should beat Lesotho and Zimbabwe.
The players are to blame 98%. They have no justification for not putting chances away. Any Nigerian 11 assembled even if Dr Rafiu Oladipo was the coach should beat these teams.

this link just showed videos of players playing back passes around their comfort zone

Danielnino00:


Good afternoon everyone. I appreciate you all for your time and patience so far, and apologies for not being able to meet up with the deadlines listed in the calendar.
So, based on responses received so far, here are the members of the nomination committee for the 2023 Nairaland Nigeria Football Fans Award:
1. Danielnino00
2. Icon4s
3. Thesupernerd
4. Charlesemeka85
5. Joebie
6. Andsungorilla

Given that the super eagles have a game tomorrow and next week, I think it's only right to wait until afterwards before we begin. The super falcons also have a game coming up toward the end of this month and early December, but the super falcons only have one category for the award, so we cant wait till then. However, if members of the committee wish to make modification to the categories, we can find a way around it.

In lieu of this, here is the new calendar:
November 22- November 27 2023- Selection of award categories by nomination committee
November 27- December 2nd 2023- Selection of players for each award category by nomination committee
December 4th - December 11th 2023- Official Voting of winners by all Nairalanders
December 15th 2023- Official announcement of winners

Thank you all

Peseiro this Peseiro that....

Danielnino00:


I'd really like us to move on with this award, but it isn't all totally within my power.. this thread must be carried along 100 percent.
It appears that many aren't so happy with the state of our football these days given recent results, so it's time again to decide whether or not we go ahead with the award.

If you qant us to go ahead with the award, click on "like", id otherwise,click on "share".
Voting closes tomorrow at 10pm Nigeria time

joelsteron:




That is the team nigerians are worried about. Well i blame our basket goal keepers. Even minors thinks they can take shot from anywhere and its a goal.. But these super eagles is going to the world cup. That i have seen

Barryseal:

It's always the easy way out to blame the coach. Truth be told, these set of players will disappoint any coach the federation hires.
Nothing was wrong with Peseiro's lineup over the 2 legs. Most coaches will go for 98% of that same line up if the same set of players were available.
Let's be real, these set of players are the supposed best we have in those top leagues we love so much.
I blame Peseiro for not working on the GK dpt that's all.

elyte89:
Let’s try to get barryseal point…firstly as an experienced foreign player plying ur trade in best foreign leagues week in week out shld beat a very lowly rated team even if their coach is not on the touch line ….we had no biz drawing against d likes of Lesotho 🇱🇸 and Zimbabwe 🇿🇼.these are one of the easiest games in the group

Secondly…80percent of the players in our team feels too relaxed that they knw Dey would be starting games once Dey re invited.it’s high time we involve hungry players who re ready to compete and give deir .it’s not necessary they must play in d first five best foreign leagues ,afterall those who executed the last two matches were majorly from d so called leagues dt couldn’t defeat carpenters

Odunayaw:
Just look at this

Barryseal:
Going forward, players like Olisa Nda, Ibrahim Olawoyin, Igho Ogbu, Akor Adams, Gift Orban, obinna Nwobodo, Arthur Okonkwo, Nwakali must be added to refresh the team. We missed doing this during the friendlies which is quite unfortunate.

Add these hungry set of players to the team and watch our fortunes change.

codemaniacs:


NFF can't change the players and the SE is not qualifying for the world cup because the players will never be changed.

Boniface likes to assist and should be playing LW while Moffi plays RW if chukwueze is un-available while Adams plays Striker then Orban plays AM while iwobi plays LCM and Nwakali plays RCM and Ndidi/Onyedika/Yussuf plays DM.

Then Uzoho is permanently banned from the team.

mostob:
Just look at what you typed.


Rather than suggest good wingers that will push the ones we currently have, you decided to move the strikers around. When did Moffi and Boniface turned to wingers? When last did Orban played as a midfielder?


The funniest thing is you listed 7 outfield players excluding the back 4 and goalkeeper.


Na 12 players dey play match?

Barryseal:

Are you suggesting this lineup cannot beat Lesotho? Can any of the Lesotho players displace anyone from this lineup? Let's be serious

Mujtahida:

We've never started a WCQ with this kind of wackness.

The WCQ for Russia 2018 was tough but due to the fact that we started well winning Zambia 2-1 in their home, it set us up nicely and we qualified.

Now see the sham this man has put us in playing weak teams like Lesotho and Zimbabwe.

codemaniacs:


Salah, Diaz, Nunez, Jota all play as wingers for Liverpool but they are strikers. so there's no harm in playing strikers as wingers.

Orban will play SS, I call the SS role as AM so that the high amount of strikers the SE has can be put to use. Iwobi is not a Bruno Fernandez type of midfielder that scores lots of goals especially when the strikers don't score...

Iwobi, Nwakali and other midfielders should play as CM or CAM not as AM or SS because they don't score goals and Super Eagles needs passers in Midfield and Iwobi, Nwakali and Onyedika/ndidi/yussuf/Onyeka midfield will either pass to the wings or AM who would then cross or pass to the central striker or other players in the box.

simple.

Danielnino00:


Wetin u dey talk? Salah is naturally a winger.. he plays as an inverted winger.. Diaz is also 100% a winger.. Jota spent the majority of his career as a winger before joining Liverpool,but he can play as a central forward.. Nunez is a strilee, but his pace and dribbling skills make him able to play on the wing... All 5 of Liverpool's first choice forwards are versatile.. the same cant be said of ours...

You want to tweak the formation and play players in roles they arent technically suited for

Lineup and results are two different things like we witnessed

We only have one bonified star which is osimehn

Everyone else is a piece of ⚙️ In a bigger engine in their club

What I’m saying is 90% of our players are Glorified role players, and seeing this result is not surprising at all we all think football is played by big names or the club you play i feel bad for us.

Because by the end of the day your name won’t score the goals.

This team is not a unit they need a firm and discipline coach to hold everyone accountable or else we’re gonna end up like Germany or worse Belgium and waste our golden generation

Tobichimezie:
I believe under a REAL coach and some dropping + addition of players we should be back on track, still alot of games to be played. I just want NFF to announce a new coach before AFCON starts so he can use the AFCON to know his players and bed in his tactics before the next round of WCQ next year.

At this point I don't mind if they even announce any of Amunike, Finidi or Oliseh as interims, at least those ones are our ex-internationals and will call up enough midfielders as well as scout more of our fringe players doing well in Europe and back home.

Just get Gbeseiro abi Passeiro far far far away from my National team.

mostob:
Bro.. the way some people analyze football here sometimes baffles me.

What is now the difference between what he is suggesting and what we're playing now? I just tire
