Ekong should have put head for that 2nd goal. The first goal was just too poor. Set pieces again!! This one really hurts sha. But. we will be back. 3 Likes 1 Share |

Unfortunately Alex is the convenient scapegoat. Funny thing is I'm surprised how every body has developed amnesia that in Iwobi's first game where we deployed three midfielders he gave some defense splitting passes and even had a shot at goal. Alex sacrificed his game for the team in this tournament yes he wasn't excellent but haba he tried na! Safarigirl has already trashed out the point thoroughly so won't say more. charlesemeka85: 5 Likes 1 Share |

forgiveness: Terem was not given any opportunity to show what he can do , he should be aggrieved. We had the opportunity to go 4-4-2 with VO and Moffi, but we opted for a negative defensive posture. Aribo not really sure what he is midfielder or winger or what in the team ❓ Zaidu runs and has a natural left foot, what else ❓ He has zero end product and lack composure. I know the dogs abuse I got when I said he was poor. I said that about 3 years ago. Onyedika is a very big strong and powerful brick 🧱 wall very immobile can he open up defences with clever passing and 1V1 dominance,a big NO. It seems Onyemaechi was there for decoration, the same goes for Awaziem, Musa ( motivational speaker) Omeruo old time sake, KC was never match fit for a gruelling AFCON and had not been in form for ages. Onuachu is an appendage it seems or a big tree 🌴 to lump the ball to when VO is exhausted. That's not very positive. Alhassan is that player who does everything but is not good at anything. He huffs and he puffs but never blows the house 🏠 down. Very limited creativity, no physicality, nothing outstanding. That in itself is the problem, we need invention, creativity, and dominance. Alhassan promises but cannot deliver. So what do we do ❓ We have to get quality players start early engage communicate and relate well before they BLOW 🌬️ 1 Like |

chrisooblog: He was aiming to block the shot instead of going for the ball. That ball was there to be won. Once Haller got a Touch there was nothing anyone could do. If Ekong had at least gone for the header it might have thrown him off. 3 Likes

chrisooblog: I'm going to be controversial. But NFF seem not to be looking for players as opposed to deals anchored ⚓ on self interest. Nwaneri is 16 and played for Arsenal the othe day. How old was Iwobi when he played for the SE ( he had not played one game in the EPL) There are several players who are good but not considered in Europe. |

komekn: The only playes left on my list are Onyedika and Zaidu. The rest should take a bow. Onyedika is DMF and that's primary role. If you're looking for a defence splitting midfielder, take to Oliseh to play for Nigeria. |

Sometimes you also need officiating to go your way. Who else noticed VAR failed to take a look at a very obvious elbow by Kessie on Zaidu in the first half. Home town decision I guess because I'm so sure it would have been checked if a Nigerian player did the exact same thing. Doesn't change the fact that the Ivorians were the better team. 1 Like |

Paseiro said our players were nervous hence lost possession. I think I will have to agree with him. They were overwhelmed by the occasion. 2 Likes |

Blueelf:Oga naso Nwakali kept against Mexico conceded 4 goals and anytime his name comes up na Nwakali ke but miles ahead of Uzoho and Maduka....yes Maduka is Udinese number one and I watched all his matches,nothing special except his first match against Cagliary in FA cup,he conceded goals that Nwabali would saves with ease....my point enough of overrating European based goalkeepers......Nwabali in NPFL would not have make Afcon team......Christian Nwoke and Osayi Kingdom are keepers will need now to complement Nwabali not keepers that do not have any remarkable performance in eagles colour despite the opportunities given to them. |
