I just saw an analysis of Brazil's first goal, Ifeanyi Ifeanyi was just ball watching...

Left to me, that was the problem of the team. I am yet to know the role of the two ifeanyis - is it anchor Or deep lying playmaker or box to box midfielder? They didn't act out anything at all in that game

Actually, I'd like to see saviour start. The defence was left too exposed in the last game. The players coming in know that they must play well. That puts the desired pressure on yahaya and other starters against brazil.

Because the defensive midfielders did not do their jobs. Their should be balance between defence and attack

Manu garba is jus a clown. How on earth you wanna bench your best player nacho? Na wa o. Abeg no need to watch the match again. Yahaya is better dan saviour of guy and even bulbwa. Forget about that goal he scored in ayc. You jus can't bench your best players cos of one loss. I nor go watch again even comment on the thread again. #vex#
manu is not a clown as u called him, why would u call him a clown in the first place? because like every sound coach he read the riot act and was bold not minding whose horse is gored by embarking on changes and benching the so called big boys in the team? how is that bad? he knows what he wants and he is going for it, every player in this team are world beaters, the ones in the bench are as good as the starters thats how blessed we re. my brother u fit vex leave the tread o, we na confirm fans, we will follow the team to the end of the world. lets i forget, watch out, the scores will not be less than 4 goals in our favour

Ifeanyi ifeanyi was the major problem. He was not playing like a DM. Ifeanyi mathew was also confused as to his CM role. Good thing, Idowu is playing because he will stay back and cover.

So the coach is trying to blame nacho and yahaya for the team loss to brazil by benching them against korea. Comon guys that aint true. He should focus on his midfield. Those two infeanyis are poo. He benched nwakali and idowu expecting to win, how?. He should focus on his tactic and stop trying to make nacho and yahaya the scapegoat. I know say na cos nacho papa quarrel with coach why he removed nacho dat why manu wan show authority.#stillnotwatching#
so in ur analysis and beliefs without nacho and yahaya the team is wack? did u see these 2 players u mentioned in the team that won the AYC and the friendlies in germany? na wa for u oh! ur analysis of football is to say the least wack. u no try at all. every player in that team are top class, dont look down on any player there. they are al good

I'd be really glad to see Godwin Saviour in the starting line up. That dude plays with a stick-to-itiveness that I admire. I first noticed this when he played for the U-23 during the Super 6. Recall feelers from camp in Germany, pre-tourney, held that he was a [THE] standout man. Manu should chuck him in to start. He has the ability to run at defenders with his head down like someone with a point to prove. My opinion.

I reviewed Enaholo's clangers. The third goal, to me, wasn't a howler as such. The ball got the slightest of deflections as it zipped by which altered its trajectory deceptively into the net . The fourth goal: Enaholo had sighted a free Nigerian player via peripheral vision and he was aiming to quickly pick up the ball from the tame shot of the Brazilian in order to launch the ball to his free team mate, counter attack mode. You know the type of move that resulted in Nigeria's second goal? That was his plan. Alas, this made him pay less concentration to catching the ball, resulting in the blooper. That said, I still think he's our safest pair of hands.

Dude the keeper messed up big time. I don't know how good Alampasu is, but enaholo should be replaced.

I nor go watch again. I can't afford to miss yahaya and nacho skillful plays. But since they aint starting then no need to watch until I see both of em playing. I go jus sit down for front of tv but I go close my eye until I hear commentator say iheanacho or yahaya comin in before I go open eye dey watch.
and what happens when you hear the commentor screamed "it is a Goal. Fantastic goal!" and he didn't mention which side that scored?

Remember, Alampasu committed some elementary errors at the start of the U-17 championship but ended with the golden gloves. Anyhow, I'm sure Mr. Fancy Ewulu, the team's keepers' trainer, knows how good all the keepers are. We'll see.

I will probably open one eye not two o jus only one eye to see who score and close again. Lol. I wanna see another yahaya rabona skill and nacho curlin ball. I know there are other players that can play well for the team but let be honest yahaya and nacho are just too good to be on the bench. It is like saying cr7 should be on the bench when he is fit and ready to roll. No matter how hazard mess up on the pitch of play, mouriho will never bench hazard never. Nacho should be untouchable in that flying eagles team. Come on guys he is the reigning world young player of the year for crying out loud. He should be respected by everyone including manu. At least tell him to up his game not bench
Re: Flying Eagles of Nigeria Thread: U-20 World Cup (New Zealand 2015) by Birikiti: 7:53pm On Jun 03, 2015
The lineup being touted for tomorrow's match should have started against Brazil! A conservative lineup with lots of grafters that would have set the work ethics tone for others coming from the bench.

All is not lost though. I believe in this team's ability to turn things around. At least, the lessons learnt will stop the bragging from our coach and players and they will dig in and work their socks off.

Another thing is, I have always said Manu (and most Nigerian coaches for that matter) rarely change tactics in between matches. They start and finish with exactly the same tactics. What European/South American coaches, simply, do against African opposition is to watch the 1st half display, tweak things around at half time and voila the game is won! This is why I respect Siasia/Kalika combo till today; their match reading skills was solid.

Hopefully, Manu and backroom staff have learnt their lessons and can improve things. I believe in this team!

The Alampasu u guys are always shouting abt is even 3rd choice. If any1 is to replace Enaholo, which i dnt foresee, it should be Olorunleke the 2nd choice goalie.

Forget Alampasu's heroics at U17. This is U20!

Alampasu is second choice. Leke barely scraped through selection.

Alampasu was injured at the AYC that was why he was not brought on.

Enaholo is still the best keeper.
