Oasis007: Balogun just started training after injury so he is most likely not fully fit for the bench. That makes the recovery of Victor moses and Success more remarkable. Anyway, i agree with you... time is too short to experiment a new formation for Algeria but it is something that could be tried in friendlies before we face Cameroon in Uyo. |

goldfish80: I totally disagree. Why play Silva in the wings when we have the two Moses? That is if we opt for a 4-2-3-1 formation. Silva must sit behind the striker and create chances for the striker and Wingers. In a 4-3-3, Silva will sit behind the three forwards. You can hardly find Silva on the wings now City has Sane, Sterling and Nolito. Hope we land Leon Bailey. 1 Like |

Icon4s:This was Watford's first time using it and it went well. They didn't really play well but we can see that they had a clean sheet even though they didn't have much of the ball. We have a core who will know this system and don't forget that for about 45 minutes this system made Mahrez and Slimani look average. |

enomakos:Victor Moses and Isaac Success obviously dodged the game in Zambia. They colluded with their clubs to do this. There is no explanation for someone to play 90mins just 7days after claiming injured. I have noticed most Nigerian players dodge playing away games against African oppositions. Celestine Babayaro started this trend of boycotting away games for the eagles. Players dodging away games was the exact reason we failed to qualify for the 2006 world cup. It was so bad that we went for the famous game away against Angola with 14 players including 2 goal keepers. If we are to be honest, okocha was the reason we lost the world cup ticket to a garbage Angola side. Victor Moses and Isaac Success should be left alone. We need players who will walk through a wall for us. 1 Like |

Icon4s: I agree with you. Three at the back packs up a lot and it takes a lot of discipline from all players to make it work. Van Gaal tried it in England and Flopped. Mancini tried it with City and players like Micah Richards said the defenders did not know their role. Mazzari is a big admirer of the system but he is very cautious using it at Watford. It takes lots of practice to get the team to play it. |

TheGoodJoe:if u play Onazi,Mikel,Aluko and Iwobi at the same time in midfield,u will have only 2 players left to complete a team in 4-4-2 ,4-3-3 or 4-2-3-1. N we have players like Etebo, Success,Ighalo,Moses,Simon,Ideye and Musa. Which player would u sacrifice to accommodate Aluko. I don't think we need him now unless there is a serious injury to 3 of our midfielders. We should b thinking of how to integrate Etebo to this current set up without destabilizing the whole system,because Etebo is not a passing Midfielder,that's my only problem with him,he loves to run with the ball n shoot,he hardly interchanges pass with his partners,unless there is completely no space to shoot. perhaps he should watch more of KDB game to master his art. |

terzurum5: And Pinnick went grooving with some of the wads. Thanks to Desmond Elliot for his patriotic action to save the country from embarrassment. I hope the Nigerian football administrators still plan to reward Amunike, his coaching crew and his boys for winning the U17 World Cup. These guys won a World Cup and they deserve rewards for achieving a good thing. 1 Like |

Napoleon55: When I say it works, I mean we can field a strong team without Aluko. I did not say all must play. ..............................Ikeme(GK) .................Ekong(RCB).............Omeruo(LCB) M.

Moses(RMF).............................................S. Moses(LMF) ..............................Iwobi(AMF) ..............................Iheanacho(CF) This is my preferred set up in a 4-2-3-1 formation. |

goldfish80: @bolded is all what Solanke does best. ![]() Dominic Ayodele "Dom" Solanke-Mitchell (born 14 September 1997) is an English professional footballer who plays for Chelsea. Although Solanke prefers playing as a striker, he can also play as a winger on either side and as an attacking midfielder. He has represented England up to under-21 level. As you can see from Wikipedia and from the games I saw him played. Chuks Aneke played in Belgium for two seasons. He played regularly in his first season and beginning of the second second before something happened to him. He has gone back to England 1st division. |

Napoleon55: How do you know without given Ajagun the chance to prove himself? When Aluko was in the form of his life I don't think you can compare him with some of those players. He can dribble than most of them, he can score with free kicks, he can tear a defense with split passes, he can score.... the boy is good but he is playing in a lower division. That is all 1 Like |
