Typical response of a nonsensical nonentity yes men. Those people are the worst humans to surround yourself. Go and read boniface twitter, does that look like something a professional playing for a serious organization will be twitting? I’m the type of brother to praise you when you excel and constructively criticize you when you fork up, it doesn’t mean that, I’m hoping for your downfall (God forbid). Look at ademola lookman, he gradually worked his way to being our best player and he is calm, cool and collected. He isn’t clowning around with jokers. In few months time, he will be declared as the APOY winner. As for Boniface, I expect him to score tomorrow

Bros even his club enjoys his tweets and even cruise-tweet most times to see his response, they literally call him comrade. if the club can keep the cruise going, then these 450 words wey you dey always copy from your notepad come paste na for your pocket.

Because it can't work for other footballers doesn't mean it won't work for him, he's not trying to be a dual personality, that's who he is. You're not serious than him.

And with all due respect sir, it's "tweeting" 🫡

Bro... They're already predicting doom for the SE because AE invited Tanimu.

junnyjake:
I'm not happy with the list, but, I wouldn't use that as an opportunity to blast local coaches.

We saw how Rohr made Shehu feel like that RB Position was his birthright.

This man kept on inviting Uche Agbo for years without giving him a second of action. He was inseparable with Mikel Agu.

Bro... You said it all.
Now they don't like local coaches. 🤣🤣

not surprised at all

Teamwork

What do you think of a 3-4-2-1 formation with Ejuke playing as the AMR/RSS not as both LW and RW like Simon played in the last AFCON?

Let both lookman and Ejuke both play behind Boniface and not as wide forward like Simon did in the last AFCON with only Lookman playing behind Osimhen.

Please Lookman and Boniface should learn to play together.In most parts of the away game against Rwanda, we saw the both going for goal when the other was free and in a better position to score.

Eguavoen should instruct them to play as a team in the absence of Osimhen.They should pass the ball to a free team mate who is in a better position in front of goal and not shoot from any angle.

This is my message for our AFCON double header against Libya.

Maduka Okoye has made 25 saves for Udinese this season, 16 from inside the penalty area – the most in Serie A.

Excellent shot-stopper 🧤✨

Hotepking:


I can understand his choice of player selection on the basis of trying to play it safe because this is a major double header qualifier with little or no time to experiment significantly with new faces- considering how fast and heavy the international breaks are scheduled, so the inclusions of the regular mainstay faces like Awoniyi, Iheanacho and even Tanimu etc (despite their poor club forms) can be understandable and perhaps excused...if that's Eguavoens real excuse, then I can forgive and understand it...otherwise if it's another typical local coach jibiti of cushioning "paddy-paddy" as a basis of player selections at the expense of merit, then we have serious cause to be worried.

I'll reserve my judgements on Eguavoen because he's still interim, and has done really well so far with results and style of football which majority of Nigerian fans can agree to, if he's fully given the job then we will see his real team selections going forward...truth is I still feel safer with Eguavoen as the coach than a brand new coach when we return to face the murky world cup qualifier
fixtures next year...there's really no time to stake our world cup chances on a new coach who might need more time to harmonize this team.

If Nigeria qualifies for AFCON before the qualifiers are over, I will suggest AE uses the untested players

and they are top 4 too. Excellent stats but the defense have to do better in protecting him. Their strikers don't score that much for the keeper to be facing such amounts of shots very early in the season.

I know it's not his fault but Maduka seems to always concede a lot of shots the same thing happened at his Dutch club, he could be averaging 6 shots faced per match

For someone that named himself the Unbothered, you appear to like quarrel more than fight.

Joezinho:
The consistency at being foolish from this dude is amazing.

All these egunje clowns are just funny. Imagine reducing afcon performance and Europa league final against a team that hasn’t lost a game last season prior to that day to “only”.

Goke7:


The factor that makes boniface bang in goals for his club needs to be studied by AE and his crew. They may have to tweak something somewhere or a pep talk with the player. If not folks will continue blaming his social media antics (which has proven to be untrue) for his inability to score for the national team. For me sha boniface will get his goals eventually the question is just when.

I agree
Maybe playing him as the top striker is not the answer
I observed that he likes to run at defenders and use his trickery
Hopefully they will unlock him against Libya

zuchyblink:
I love Akor Adams and Christantus Uche,they are physically strong and are fit for African football

That Uche guy strong o
He is reminiscent of the quintessential Cameroonian player of yester years..
Those Rigobert Song era
Those guys were strong mehn!

Mujtahida:

Bad luck? But he was in the squad last round of games.
This is some weird irrational postulation

I'm not comfortable with that guy in our defense therefore always felt he was going to cost us some games,that's all.

Are sure he was in Eguavoen last games?

solonnachi:

Exactly!!!!
Not in high stakes matches
Once we secure qualification, by all means, throw the gates open!

jihday:
compromised? Because of Tanimi? Did you feel this way when Rohr invited a nonleague player from Germany?

I did not meant compromised by taking bribe because i don't always entertain those bribe allegation,but by being influenced by NFF or someone to do some things he may not want.

Of course Rohr was not immune.

We need to work on dis anjorin guy …he’s also another midfield option @dlaw take note .

Tino Anjorin starts for Empoli

if only the NFF will notice him. For him to be starting games mostly for Empoli since he joined them this summer he must be doing something good for the team

He was. And Tanimu has played only one or at most two competitive games for Nigeria

Amedino99:

Jamilu? Which Jamilu? I don't think Jamilu has played for Nigeria since 2022.

Lookman and Boniface were too selfish playing for self rather than the team. And I'd pin it more on Lookman cos I understand why Boniface would want to score since he's under pressure. Lookman on the other hand has cemented his place and should assist Boniface. In any case both of them should learn to play together

Mujtahida:

Then you haven't been watching super eagles matches
Jamilu was called up during the Mali and Ghana friendlies
And even started against Mali

Mujtahida:

guess I made a mistake. Ihefu was called up for bright not jamilu. Jamilu still played for us against mali this year

Ola Aina is a BALLER, absolutely stellar game from him so far!!
