Yea for 1 hour
Boy aint effective
We have to try others to see what they can offer
Moffi hasn’t even been tried in this tournament
How’d anybody know Equitorial Guinea striker would be Afcon top scorer at the moment. Someone who plays as right back in lower tier division
Moffi should be given his chance
The match be like extra time thing

Las Las, we're all judging the Super Eagles 🦅 performance by emotions only.
José Peseiro is not the best coach out there, but he knows what he's been doing so far in this tournament. He knows that these small teams are taking the no gree for anybody slogan personal and baba wants to be as careful as possible.

He's been playing Osimhen as a lone striker because he and we all know that Osimhen will/should give us goals at least in the group stages, but idan has been misfiring so far. We sha move, tactics no spoil.

In this Round of 16 stage, don't be surprised if you see a 3-5-2 formation with Lookman/Iheanacho and Osimhen at the front to torment any person that volunteers to man the post for the opponents' team. Once he does this, I'll know he's a tactician.

Bottom line is that he knows what he's doing, na we dey misfire. Apart from Osimhen seff, Chukwueze and Simon Moses no get football brains of proper wingers at all, I'm waiting for the best of Ademola Lookman, Victor Osimhen and Kelechi Iheanacho in the knockout stages. AFCON just start 📌

So if Oshimen was not in this team you guys will not play?

The earlier you understand that in most afcon that Nigeria has done well usually an unexpected player steals the show

2002 AFCON Julius Aghahowa

In 2004 AFCON it was Osaze

In 2013 AFCON it was Sunday Mba

Kanu Kwankwo our all time best player and two times AFRICA Best player have no AFCON goal.

You need to understand that somehow it may be Iheancho or moffi afcon to shine

Going into the tournanment as it reaches its advanced stage, it is always certain that team managers and coaches find a hard time devising some tactical noose that will be difficult for other opponents to decode.. it only gets tougher and stronger as feeble(weak) teams are kicked out.

The hopes of our team advancing further rests on what the technical crew handlers as the team(Super Eagles) has been playing below/par what most of us expect here, our best game so far being against Cote d'lvoire.
I have come up with 4 best line up for the SE if they hope of advancing further this tournament with the remaining matches.

Please Anyone who knows Someone that knows the people who knows Someone that knows Peseiro should tag them.

My first line up is: 4- 3- 3.
This is the one of the best lineups. This lineup will link our talismans to the main Striker(Osimhen)
This tactics was effective with Rohr during our 2019 AFCON campaign it paid off in the game against Cameroun.
This formation had Iwobi played behind Ighalo that had an assist and also gave us the winning goal. I think Iwobi pairing up Osimhen is a good thing cos he will cause a lot of treats to the opponent defense line with "sexy penetration passes".

Iwobi playing deep has not been helpful in our recent matches this AFCON. The best of Iwobi is behind the striking force.
His capabilities speaks for him.

I chose Musa to play ahead of Chukwueze cos he has been very wasteful upfront.
Chukwueze ratings in this tournament is very low and has caused us unforgivable missed chances and shabby shots at posts.
Musa with his experience will fill in the gaps as his tenacity speaks for him.

8 players have decided to retire from the Algerian national team.

Michael Olise should not forget to pitch his tent with them ASAP.

"struggling for relevance, underperforming for the past two seasons" Iheanacho for Nigeria in last 7 months:

vs Sierra Leone ⚽
vs Sao Tome 🅰️
vs Saudi Arabia ⚽
vs Lesotho 🅰️
vs Zimbabwe ⚽

He started only twice, scored or assisted in every appearance.

safarigirl:


Komekn, it is 2024 and you're still coming here to judge National team players with your English ball.

Does AFCON look like the English leagues or is it being held in England?

Kelechi has a very very good record for the Super Eagles. He has scored or assisted in most of the games he has featured for us over the last two years. He is one of maybe 3 players in this squad that have scored multiple goals at this AFCON, so, please, spare us your English league records. It has no bearing at the AFCON as you can probably tell.

The top scorer in this tournament is a player plying his trade in the Spanish second division. EPL players are not doing a madness here, so, don't bring stats from your best country to tell us about our Nigerian player at AFCON.
