Anyone who understands football very will know that the midfield made Osimeh to be out of this list. They weren't feeding him. He comes back to struggle for ball and before moving again the pace will not be there. How can a coach go with a team without a good midfielder that give passes to a striker. Remember how Oliseh used to feed Amokachi, Rashidi Yekini, Samson Siasia in those days. Not forgetting legendary midfield maestro,Late Mudashiru Lawal. Anyway,they did all their best 3 Likes |

Watianoengineer: Na Iwobi fall Osimhen hand for Afcon - If Nigeria had a player like Sunday Oliseh of Old or even Mikel Obi who are great passers of the ball - Osimhen would have shone like a million stars He will not be overworking himself That is why I love what Cameroun did in 1988 Roger Milla was 36 years old then and retired, he was called from retirement to man that attacking midfiled - older players like Francois Omam Biyik, Emile Mbouh Mbouh, Cyrille Makanaki and Thomas Libih staged an open protest to FECAFOOT (our own version of NFF) saying If Milla returns they wont play the nations cup (they are midfileders and probably felt threatened by Milla’s presence in the camp) however common sense prevailed and Milla was added to the team. Cut a long story short - Milla was the player who equalized the goal Sam Okwaraji scored in Super Eagles opening game against Cameroon in AFCON 1988 and he was instrumental to their winning AFCON againt Nigeria in the finals In essence - you cant wish away experience sometimes, especially when that experienced player is very physically fit and there is no younger person available who plays that role better than him - That is what Messi is doing for Argentina right now - Imagine if Messi was not in the 2022 Argentine team- will they win that world cup? I seriously doubt it. Mikel Obi is 36 years old - same age with Leo Messi - they were both born in 1987 - Obi has retired from Super Eagles almost 5 years now while Messi is still playing even Ronaldo who is 2 years older than Mikel Obi is still playing for Portugal at 38 years old So what am I saying here ? - Mikel should have been in that team to offer some creativity which Iwobi could not provide - wether he has a club or not is immaterial - his job there will be to collect the balls Bassey - Ekong - Aina will win from opposing attackers - offer some stability by spraying the passes to Simon- Osimhen or Lookman for the counter attack. Nsue, who is same age with Mikel Obi is 36 years old and he just won the golden boot at AFCON. Just imagine if Mikel Obi was in that final game - or a player of his capacity, what would happen - Nigeria will win easily- he is a great passer of the ball and we needed that type of player not Iwobi 3 Likes |

Kingosytex: Victor has no skill set other than running up and down hoping for a ball to land at the back of the defender for him to outrun and score. If he should leave Napoli, our guy is going to a club lower to Napoli 3 Likes |
