Meliforme:He is a tough guy and he has this "never give up spirit' fight till the last whistle. You need to watch his pre-season work out and attest to what I'm saying. Don't look down on his small body stature, He is a fighter. |

robosky02:We need a little faith in our own. Football coaching is knowledge. What Eguavoen doesn't know or whatever his lapses, he should be given resources to improve on it. His record as our coach is quite impressive but he's never been given time. 2 Likes 1 Share |

Meliforme:Oga Meli,you don’t rate Lookman and it’s normal in football just say you got it wrong than telling us that you never seen him played like he did against Benin. He did it against tougher opponents Cameroon,Angola or you forgot his cross to Osimhen against EG.He worked offensively and defensively in Afcon….Lookman is a player to be rated after Osimhen in eagles. I don’t rate Ekong but I ate my words.Ekong is my number one in eagles defence,even in my top three rated eagles players list…Osimhen,Lookman and Ekong.Another player that is catching my attention is Onyedika,his foots on the ball is a class. 9 Likes 2 Shares |

yeah, one time i saw him lost the ball in the opposition box and saw him sprinting back to defend as benin played the ball into our half, i mean his sprint was like running after the ball to go score! i was so impressed as same time glad for such he is truly Nigeria's new face of football Meliforme: 3 Likes |

Kog45:I think his point is more to the effect that we should avoid the kind of comparison that can drive a wedge between the players. I think we can agree that Osimhen gives or provides Lookman with space to operate. Inevitably fans will compare one player to another. We can't help it. It is for the players to have a big heart and see the achievement of the task as more important than pursuing personal glory 9 Likes 1 Share |

Kog45:I trust you to always bring the historical perspective to things. If it happened between Siasia and Rashidi then without social media, imagine what it would be like with SM now where players interact directly with fans. I really just hope Eguaveon is given time. Has ever stayed up to 2 years as our coach? I doubt. 3 Likes |

Kog45:I stand with you in your last paragraph. I love ekong as a person but never rated him as a player, even my love for him made me ignore some of his mistakes since debuting for the national team but it’s a thing of joy to see how far he has grown and matured as a player Our current defensive set up is porous without Ekong’s presence. He is now that colossal figure that is needed in every team’s defense line. Seeing him in our defense of late brings some level of confidence that I can’t even explain. The older he grows the better he gets I think it will be ideal for the national team handlers to start grooming a young CB to take over from him and the sooner the better. His wealth of experience and exposure will be a great learning tool to any young CB he takes under his wings. It’s high time the national team handlers look beyond Awaziem and co and try out younger defensive talents like Ogbu,Okoli,Fredricks,Vince etc as under study to legendary Ekong 7 Likes |

elyte89: Everything is not luck Siasia was simply beaten by a better side that has Messi period But if you look at the style of play you'll see a coach that know what he is doing How many coach can take you back back medals winning in Olympics. Siasia did For Eguavon hmm The only time he was given enough time,he took as to AfCON 3rd place finish in Egypt. Not different from what Rorh and other whites do The other 2 instance he can on rescue just like the yesterday own Imagine calling him a week to a major game to prepare a team. When the white dude turn NFF down The hurriedly ask him to lead the team. Assuming we lost they will say Eguavon bad luck But we forget NFF are the clueless once. Who will always resort to fire brigade approach. But in few days we saw his input on the team. The same Benin that beat us 2-1 some week back lost woefully 0-3 to Nigeria. Beniln Republic of course know own strength and weakness and wanted to just seat back soack the pressure and finish an the counter but Eguavon tactics 3-4-3 on the night mess them up. So I honestly think if given to either Eguavon or Siasia or Amunike can deliver perfectly 1 Like |

robosky02:In this life what is key is potential. Eguaveon has shown us too many times that he has it in him but once he enters pot hole, we start shouting for him to be relieved of the job but whenever we are in a jam, it is him we call to rescue us. Why don't we give this man time, give him training, give him all the technical support and resources he needs to enter into that place where even his failure will not make us sack him but allow him to go on until this flashes of brilliance becomes steady light? You see this is why I'm not hard on Boniface. He showed flashes. He got into position. Let us give him time. 2 Likes |
