Simon is better playing from the left
Lookman is better playing from the left
One need to sit on the bench for the other

Maybe we need a striker with physical presence in the match.
I think Boniface should be substituted for Awoniyi.
Boniface is good but there is nothing he brings to this team that Lookman and Iwobi doesn't and hasn't offered more so far
Awoniyi is even worse

I think Boniface should be moved to the wings and moses Simon taken off for Nacho

Unfortunately AE needs to take the initiative to invite the UEFA CHAMPIONS LEAGUE kids to see if we can get a player that ginger like oshimen amongst them

How many times will boniface be given chance to lead the line, i dont even think he has touched the ball after 45mins. Nobody uses conventional standing strikers again

If Boniface is given the leeway to come deep and initiate the attack, make 1-2 combos with Iwobi/Ndidi/Lookman, we will score easily. It's a waste to have a player that good on the ball that shielded from it.

Nothing concern me with analysis. I can watch Bruno all day long. Man is joy to watch from his wing ☺️
Re: "The Super Eagles Thread: The Road To AFCON 2025 And 2026 World Cup by lexyman(m): 6:00pm On Oct 11
why is no one talking about Libya with almost 8men in their defence ... when they are not with the ball 10 players are there defending , with just a point man waiting for a lose ball ...

We need to switch to a 3man defense abeg. These Libyans are wack. They're not even fast either. Painful we have done everything here but no goal. We need hotter shots on goal. Sting someone wey wan block road like dem Rigobert song shots. Must be get the goal inside the box ni?

Beautiful play by Lookman and Onyeka.

Exactly what I think

Well, those times he tried to dribble, Osimhen just turns and shoots
You have a point though.
And I noticed something again about Boniface, his positioning in the opponent 18 yards seems bad. All the balls from the wing from Simon, none has found him

old heads should remember Wilson oruma. Those type of guys who shine in Europe and falter for naija

Maybe you have forgotten that Oruma and Okocha shared the same era.

Guy was excellent at the age grade level but the chances at the SE level were limited

Nigerians are adapted and acclimated to mediocre football na why abeg tell me what we did well against Libya not even ghana or the top African teams

Don't mind them... the match falls below expectations to be honest
Re: "The Super Eagles Thread: The Road To AFCON 2025 And 2026 World Cup by minfelix(m): 6:01pm On Oct 11
we dont have any business drawing this match…this is exactly how teams will play us in the WCQ next year…if we dont know how to break stubborn defense, then lets just kiss the WC goodbye…our handlers just have to make use of this afcon qualifiers to study how to break stubborn defense…all our wcq/afconQ opponents are all familiar foes in terms of their football style and play, maybe a lil edge SA has over them
Ben,Rwa,Libya,Zimbabwe,Lesotho will all play us stubborn defense system of play over both qualifiers(AfconQ/WCQ)…we should start breaking these guys effortlessly

@sugarboy you see the difference?
Same Moses Simon in this match we just watched?
He wasn't playing well when he was playing on the right but he has been our best player so far after changing wings with Lookman.
Instead of Chukwueze, I will prefer Ejuke coming on to play that right wing

Oruma never had his chance with super Eagles..Okocha was always preferred. So can't be faulted.

Exactly, because he's better at running at defenders..
Positioning is not his forte

I've seen 6 chances for shots near the arch in this 1st half and only 1. Let's stretch this comfy goalie and then use cross and nod as follow up next. He'll get tired of diving. Guy's too comfy for my liking.


These ones are here to draw obviously.

Iwobi too good abeg. Clean passes, man has created like 4 chances in this match, we're playing well, Boniface dey dribble too much, Moses Simon good, Onyemeachi sharp, Osimhen is really missed.

Exactly if they are removing any midfielder for Raphael it should be him and not Ndidi cos Ndidi is playing well
