TheSuperNerd: Guardiola knows Nacho can play that role but as a striker, Iheanacho gets to touch on his attributes when he drops deep. When he gets into the scoring positions regularly as a top striker, Manchester City Gets him using his best ability finishing. City also has Silva, Gundogan and Kevin De Bruyne who can play the AMF role. Guardiola secured that spot as a top striker for Nacho when he turned down the Chace if signing Aubameyang. Nacho must take the opportunities that comes his way. |

TheSuperNerd: Agbo has signed a four-year contract with Watford but he can only move to England if he has played 25 games or records 75% of international games with Nigeria. This is the rule I tried pointing out that I feel Guardiola wants to use to secure a work permit for Chidi Nwakali. Go C. Nwakali. |

But Nacho is taking his opportunities naa.... Or isn't he? He's been consistently doing so and Pep can't seem to allow the kid play 90mins for once in the EPL in his tenure. The time is fast coming and is indeed now when Nacho should chase Aguero outta City. Nacho is hotter than Kun now. I don't care if kun scores against barca. Nacho is hotter. To score 4goals in 4 consecutive matches for Nigeria no be beans especially when you consider the gulf in class between man city and Nigeria. When Nacho scores for Man City, people say, it's because he's surrounded by top players all round. But he keeps doing so even for Nigeria.... And Man City has better players. Abeg.... If Pep wanna be fair, then the case of Messi and Ronaldinho is what I see repeating in the case of Iheanacho and Aguero. TheGoodJoe: |
Re: "The Super Eagles Thread: The Road To AFCON 2025 And 2026 World Cup by TheSuperNerd(m): 3:51pm On Oct 16, 2016 |
Yeah... I have no doubt that Pere and Pep are up to something on Chidiebere. Man City only has Fernandinho there. An Aleix Garcia is another option as fernando doesn't fit in at all... but I expect C. Nwakali to provide keen competition for or even displace Aleix Garcia at Man City. TheGoodJoe: |

Chaiiiiii..... Obasi!!!! *what could have been had injuries not taken its toll* I can't forget his Beijing 2008 heroics and his "weird text-book" header against Argentina in the 2005 FIFA U-20 world cup final. I think he plays alongside a certain swedish lad they call "Ibrahimovic's heir" ba?? At AIK I think? tbaba1234: 1 Like |

TheSuperNerd: This is Guardiola's first season with Nacho. He will work on Nacho's personal development as a footballer. When once he gets Nacho to where he wants, Nacho will become explosive. Guardiola feels there is more for Aguero who is one of the best attackers in the World to learn. Imagine the knowledge Guardiola wants to pass to Nacho. We should give the coach time. What we need to take away from Yesterday's game is that when Guardiola set up his team yesterday, Nacho was part of the team. Apart from not scoring, Nacho had a good game. I believe the yesterday's team would cope better against a pressing Tottenham Hotspur. In such position, Nacho would score loads. |

TheSuperNerd: Aleix Garcia is a good promising player but C. Nwakali is miles ahead of him. C. Nwakali as you say is a top replacement for Fernandinho. I can not wait to watch him play for City. |

Well.... It's okay for now shaa.... I get you. Your points are well put. But I still dey observe in 3D and HD..... Coz by the time, 2017 comes around, I expect to see Nacho in the top 3 as a major contender for the CAF APOTY Award. He's that good and that ready even with lots to learn (which he shall learn anyway). TheGoodJoe: 1 Like |

Re: "The Super Eagles Thread: The Road To AFCON 2025 And 2026 World Cup by TheGoodJoe(m): 4:26pm On Oct 16, 2016 |
BascoVanVeli: We play an open attacking football system which allows players to express themselves. Nacho plays as a false 9 where he is allowed to drop deep and switch wings with players. I think the freedom he has is okay. It is up to Nacho to keep working hard and improving as a player. He needs to learn the art of skipping past players with ease and unleashing shots in impossible to score situations. This is where he needs work. Everton players knew he was deadly and hardly gave him a chance to shoot in the box. I do not think that is Guardiola's doing. |

TheSuperNerd: Let Gabriel Jesus come in. With youngsters like Sterling, Sane, Gabriel around Nacho, I see him learning from them and adding to the Game. Nacho is a big part of City. |

TheSuperNerd:competition everywhere! I don't think Nigeria has had such competition as we see today in d last 10yrs. Hmmmm... I can't even imagine d kinda headache Rohr will be facing while selecting his team. Even presently we have 5-inform wingers in V. Moses, S. Moses, A. Musa, I. Success(though I'll still love to see him play d CF role in d green white green) and even Iwobi... Chai wahala de o! I think d midfield n defence will suffer for this in d numbers of players been called-up. With Etebor coming in, Ideye might soon be drop from d team. Ighalo will even need to convince d coach y he needs to keep faith in him. I only laughed when I read that NFF are still wooing Ibe. Abeg where e wan stay or who im go displace. Our present focus should be d fullbacks and a tested and reliable 9. Other African countries will be happy we won't be @ AFCON'17 de for smell am... 1 Like |

TheGoodJoe:No matter how you try to paper over the cracks, iheanacho is not a no 9. He has the goal scoring nack to be at the moment right place at the right time doesn't mean he is best suited as a striker. I hope those suggesting Ighalo and Ideye to be benched for Iheanacho to lead the line are seeing the reasons why some of suggested Iheanacho continues his role linking the midfield to the attack, which he is best suited for. |

Hmmm..... This could work. It really could work... Simon Moses on the left? Hmm... Why not Ahmed Musa? Well, The 3-4-3 is a very interesting system. Our Wingback picks will have to be up-and-doing. Vic moses can do it on the right. Who will do it on the left? Musa or Simon.... Then that wicked front three.... Hmmm.... It's a possibility. I don't know if Rohr has 3-4-3 as one of his "wild" formation options based on our talents and all. BascoVanVeli: 2 Likes |

goldfish80: Every player has his own style of play and every player can't play like Messi. Chucks Aneke still remains a fine player to me. He is naturally talented. And that is why he is always a champion wherever he goes. Because A failed doesn't mean B will fail. Football na luck. What do you mean by technique? I really want to understand you. Thanks |

TheGoodJoe: Against Man u Iheanacho was leading a counter and he tried to squeeze the ball to KDB but it was caught and Pep was furious cuz he wanted the ball played to the wing instead, it was one of those situations were if the gamble paid off we are talking 3-0 city, since then I have seen no spark so i guess Pep told him to keep it simple. The fact that he has not yet had a notable shot from range should let u know something. |

TheSuperNerd: Simon Moses works too hard he would be my personal choice but obviously him being right footed works against him, Echiejile could also be a choice but we need someone that can do both jobs at a high rate. |
