Subzerooo:
I will rather Sadiq or Onuachu continue than Ighalo, I mean we were crying to get this man out of the NT and 4 years later we are going back to invite him?

Odunayaw:
I broke my tradition of scrolling past and there is no change at all

Abi no be this same AFCON wey just pass?

do4luv14:



You too missed the points they were raising by mentioning Ighalo,

read that guy's comment again, your sarcasm is not even warranted,

mostob:
One thing about you is you like starting argument where there is none. You no go like explain that guy's comment sir?

Kog45:
Missing Osimhen is a big minus and Awoniyi,the duo are only natural CF who are real tormentors but with Boniface,Moffi and Onuachu i don’t see reason why we should be complaining….left for Finidi to utilize the players in camp.

do4luv14:



Chaiii, you explain the comments before your sarcasm, Ahbi ah don became explainer general for sport section??


Of .Abubakar, help Cameroon destroy Cape Verde, then did I need to explain why he brought Ighalo into the conversation

ahbi no be same thread and ball we dey watch??

Mujtahida:

Second half was good but Finidi should not phase out the defensive philosophy of Peseiro. He should integrate it

EEGA:
My Analysis of our Game Against SA

I predicted that Findi will be playing breathtaking/attacking football before the game on Friday.

Defence: Nwabali did well.

Ajayi and Bassey were solid.The pair has played together for a long time and have built a telepathic understanding between them.The central defence position requires 2 CB who have played a couple of games together and have built a certain Chemistry between them.

Bright Osayi Samuel did very well as a make-shift left-back.

Benjamin Tanimu is a Centre Back and not a Right Back.He made a lot of tackles, interceptions and recoveries, typical of a good centre back.He couldn't join the attack nor make overlapping runs down the right like Osayi since it's not his natural position.

Verdict on the Defence:Nwabali starts again as GK.

We should revert to a back 3 with the trio of Benjamin Tanimu, Ajayi and Bassey playing as centre backs.

Bright Osayi Samuel will now operate as a left-wing back while Sodiq Ismail of Remo Stars plays the right-wing back.My choice of Sodiq Ismael is because of his numbers in goals and assists this season for Remo Stars in the NPFL.


Mid-field:In the absence of Frank Onyeka, Wilfred Ndidi starts as holding midfielder with Alex Iwobi playing as a central midfielder.

Fisayo Dele Bashiru starts as attacking midfielder.

Attack:Since Paul Onuachu did not get on the score sheet and was average bar his pre-assist for Dele Bashiru's goal, he should be dropped to the bench.

Lookman did not play in his preferred or most effective role.He played mostly as a wide forward on the left, crossing the ball for Onuachu who couldn't get on score sheet.This hinders his efficiency in front of goal as Lookman goals this season has always come with him playing behind the striker as either AML or LSS, as seen in the AFCON and for Atalanta this season.

Lookman starts in a 2-man attack with chukwueze.Chukwueze had a fine game he was a threat in the second half and almost got on the score sheet, if not for the ball hitting the bar.He is not new to this position, as he has played in a two-man attack before.In one occasion was the game against Bayern in the champions league when he came from the bench for Villareal to net the winner.



This formation will earn us a comfortable win with a 2 goal margin.

Nwabali

Tanimu Ajayi Bassey

Sodiq Osayi

Ndidi Iwobi

Fisayo

Chukwueze Lookman

It's a 3-2-2-1-2.A variant of 3-5-2.

I'm the guy that predicted Fisayo scoring or assisting on Friday which he did by getting us the equaliser.

mostob:
Elder Kog, you missed the point

charlesemeka85:

mostob:
Why were they criticizing him?

Napoleon55:

Boniface nko,is he not fit enough? or do u think Onuacho is better?
what's ur reason for preferring Onuachu to start ahead of Boniface?
I would like to know.

mostob:
Took me a while before I even understand what you typed here. So because he used Aboubakar as an example, that justifies inviting Ighalo to the SE team again? Lemme ask you these.
1. Where is Ighalo playing now?

2. Why did Ighalo face so much criticisms that made him retired early?

3. Compared to Cameroon, are we lacking strikers?

4. How does inviting Ighalo benefit us in the long run with world cup in view?

5. Was Ighalo himself 'clinical' while still in the team?

Philosopher1979:


That's the point. He has learnt and grown and is ready made. It may take some of these young strikers time but ighali is ready now. I mean we have a mat h tomorrow.
20 minutes to go and we need to score against Benin, ifhalo will Bury it. That few years it took him is the experience he gained. He has the experience and we need him now

Danielnino00:


Emeka is talking about Taminu, but your bitter leaf juice loving self jumped to KC...... I asked you yesterday if you had a problem with Finidi, a man you have severally praised to be a man of integrity starting Iheanacho, u no talk

do4luv14:



If you like, let it took you till December to understand this One too, still you will not still get the point,

BTW no need trying to make you see it,

It is well my good Man, and happy Sunday

minfelix:

bros na all of dey this social media na, we know how he was he was criticized esp when as we witnessed the emergence of osimhen…people use mouth retire the ighalo

komekn:


Abubakar has not been able to score more than 8 goals a season in the two seasons spent in the Saudi league.

But was not discarded by the Cameroon national team. I remember how he bullied Omeruo like a school boy.

But we discarded Ighalo too quickly for young pretender's like Sadiq,etc.

minfelix:

Bros if we had qualified for the world cup, ighalo would still wanna hang a litttle and stay with the National team…go and read comments from all over social media that period…people criticized him and were annoyingly advising NFF to overhaul the team and retain some “young” players discarding the “old” players…if you are ighalo, reading those lines across social media wont you take a bow?….bros he took a bow out of eagles due to wide criticism…the negative critiquing started from that miss at the 2018 world cup and when osimhen started maturing as a SE player

minfelix:
i am not saying bring back ighalo, im simply saying we need old guys to complement the young guys.
No be say Micheal Olise go agree to play for for super eagles and suddenly we dont wanna see Iwobi and Ndidi again, because of small loss of form

LoverOfPussy:
You want to start Chukwueze and Lookman as your strikers?


Na wa o

ChrisKels:
