OdenigboAroli: Neither is it a game to gamble with a weaker keeper due to the keeper's experience. Best in training starts. |

OdenigboAroli: Please, do not beat Oliseh. He is also a National hero who did a lot for the Super Eagles. Coolu Temper. |

OdenigboAroli:why would anyone want to call aiyenugba. That guy wasn't spectacular. I wondered what siasia was thinking when he placed him ahead of Ejide if he felt enyeama was indisciplined. |
Re: "The Super Eagles Thread: The Road To AFCON 2023, 2025 And 2026 World Cup by Kog45(m): 6:04pm On Nov 03, 2016 |
TheGoodJoe:Yea national hero but messed Enyeama up but how i wish Enyeama handle it in a very mature way like Mikel did,anyhow Enyeama must come out of retirement coz Eagles belong to Nigeria not Olishe. |
Re: "The Super Eagles Thread: The Road To AFCON 2023, 2025 And 2026 World Cup by OdenigboAroli(m): 6:05pm On Nov 03, 2016 |
TheGoodJoe: I don't buy that best in training starts,it smells of disaster. An inexperienced player can have a good day in training but that is not to say they will replicate such form in a real life situation. I will prefer Akpeyi to start because he is more experienced and has been in a similar situation,hence,experienced. You and I know that no way in the world would Alampasu start against Algeria. It's not even a smart thought. 1 Like |

Certitude: Aiyenugba was a very good goalkeeper. He just had Enyeama and Ejide ahead of him but he was also quality. He is better than Ezenwa and Akpeyi (at his prime), that's for sure. 1 Like |

Kog45: Enyeama's case was far different from Mikel. He buried his mum, flew out of Nigeria to camp the next day and arrived on a Monday. This was not a case of stripping off Enyeama's captain band but during his time of pain. The pain, stress and hatred got to his head. |
Re: "The Super Eagles Thread: The Road To AFCON 2023, 2025 And 2026 World Cup by tbaba1234: 6:09pm On Nov 03, 2016 |
OdenigboAroli: I agree with you. The goalkeeping role is too sensitive. Akpeyi looked nervous at the Olympics in an inconsequential match though. |
Re: "The Super Eagles Thread: The Road To AFCON 2023, 2025 And 2026 World Cup by OdenigboAroli(m): 6:09pm On Nov 03, 2016 |

Re: "The Super Eagles Thread: The Road To AFCON 2023, 2025 And 2026 World Cup by goldfish80(m): 6:11pm On Nov 03, 2016 |
TheGoodJoe:This game is too big for Alampasu. Alampasu is not exactly known for having nerves of steel. At the U17 world cup, it took him 3 games to settle. Nerves got the best of him until the knockout stages when he settled in. Against Algeria, no matter how good he is in training, he will just be too nervous in the first 30mins atleast. You don't want to imagine what could happen within those minutes. Akpeyi starting is unnegotiable |
Re: "The Super Eagles Thread: The Road To AFCON 2023, 2025 And 2026 World Cup by OdenigboAroli(m): 6:11pm On Nov 03, 2016 |
tbaba1234: Wasn't Daniel the one at Olympics? Either I am mixing things up or you are. |
Re: "The Super Eagles Thread: The Road To AFCON 2023, 2025 And 2026 World Cup by OdenigboAroli(m): 6:13pm On Nov 03, 2016 |
TheGoodJoe: I doubt I will ever beat anybody up,doesn't solve any problem. But Oliseh is too mouthy,people who talk without thinking will always talk nonsense. |
Re: "The Super Eagles Thread: The Road To AFCON 2023, 2025 And 2026 World Cup by OdenigboAroli(m): 6:15pm On Nov 03, 2016 |
Kog45: I suppose you don't know what transpired between Enyeama and Oliseh? |
Re: "The Super Eagles Thread: The Road To AFCON 2023, 2025 And 2026 World Cup by tbaba1234: 6:15pm On Nov 03, 2016 |
OdenigboAroli: They were both at the Olympics. Akpeyi played one game and he was atrocious.. The 3rd group game after we qualified. |
Re: "The Super Eagles Thread: The Road To AFCON 2023, 2025 And 2026 World Cup by TheGoodJoe(m): 6:17pm On Nov 03, 2016 |
OdenigboAroli: I buy it well. That is why you can see clubs play young keepers despite lack of experience. What is the use of all the experience if one teenager will Outshine an experienced player in training. How experienced was Cassilas when he started keeping for Real Madrid? If Alampasu outshines them in camp, play him. |
Re: "The Super Eagles Thread: The Road To AFCON 2023, 2025 And 2026 World Cup by TheGoodJoe(m): 6:18pm On Nov 03, 2016 |
tbaba1234: I wonder why Akpeyi's experience did not come to his rescue. |
Re: "The Super Eagles Thread: The Road To AFCON 2023, 2025 And 2026 World Cup by TheGoodJoe(m): 6:20pm On Nov 03, 2016 |
goldfish80: Alampasu is no more U17. He is a regular goalkeeper for a European team. By the way, where was Akpeyi's nerves when Emmanuel Daniel displaced him? |
Re: "The Super Eagles Thread: The Road To AFCON 2023, 2025 And 2026 World Cup by OdenigboAroli(m): 6:20pm On Nov 03, 2016 |
tbaba1234: I followed Aiyenugba when he was at his best,at Enyimba fc during their second time as Champions of Africa. Aiyenugba was average ,at best. Akpeyi is better but Ezenwa is brilliant |
Re: "The Super Eagles Thread: The Road To AFCON 2023, 2025 And 2026 World Cup by Kog45(m): 6:23pm On Nov 03, 2016 |
Certitude:Do we have any spectacular goalkeepers except Enyeama and of recent Ikeme which i highly rated coz of his technicality,others are bunch of average. On Ejide,honestly i don't want to say much on him coz he has everything to be a world class keeper but a total flop coz he lack composure which made Onigbinde to rate Enyeama ahead of him,though a first choice in Afcon 2008 ahead of Enyeama but it was apparent that Berti Vogts went for his physic Also Siasia benched him for Aiyenugba coz he lack d heart of goalkeeper coz with his height and frame I don't even expecting Enyeama to be No 1 choice |

OdenigboAroli: Akpeyi and Ezenwa are in no way better than Aiyenugba. Did you watch Akpeyi at the Olympics? He was terrible in the only game he played. Ezenwa is an error waiting to happen.. Watch the goals conceded by the NPFL all stars in spain, A good fraction came from a misjudged cross or Ezenwa getting beaten on his near post. Good reflexes,poor technique Aiyenuba was not exceptional but he did things well. 1 Like |

TheGoodJoe: It's not a chasm between 17 and 20. He's playing for a second division side in Portugal. You hardly have 50 people watch such games live at the stadium let alone having it on live TV. Totally different from the 60000+ swearing fans in Uyo. Its not even close. Emma displaced Akpeyi from where? |
Re: "The Super Eagles Thread: The Road To AFCON 2023, 2025 And 2026 World Cup by tbaba1234: 6:33pm On Nov 03, 2016 |
In my football playing days, i was an Ezenwa... good reflexes but weak fundamental keeping technique. One minute, i could make a fantastic save, the other i misjudged an ordinary cross but i was not a professional. You do not teach reflexes, you either have it or you don't. The other aspects of keeping have to be taught. Positioning, dealing with crosses etc |
Re: "The Super Eagles Thread: The Road To AFCON 2023, 2025 And 2026 World Cup by TheGoodJoe(m): 6:33pm On Nov 03, 2016 |
goldfish80: Who was our Olympics No. 1 goalie? Akpeyi should have been number one due to his experience. If the 60,000+ shouting fans means better keeper, then Akpeyi should easily Outshine Alampasu. If not, what is the use of the experience, if not getting an unfair advantage over a better talent. |
Re: "The Super Eagles Thread: The Road To AFCON 2023, 2025 And 2026 World Cup by TheGoodJoe(m): 6:36pm On Nov 03, 2016 |

TheGoodJoe:Alampasu's team actually plays in the 4th divison in the Portuguese football league. You really canvassing for a keeper with a 4th divison team to start against Algeria? The biggest game for Nigeria this calendar year. You make me laugh sometimes |
Re: "The Super Eagles Thread: The Road To AFCON 2023, 2025 And 2026 World Cup by TheGoodJoe(m): 6:41pm On Nov 03, 2016 |
goldfish80: So Akpeyi who is a Champions League regular, (LOLS), should easily Outshine Alampasu in camp. If not, what is the need of the Champions League experience? |
Re: "The Super Eagles Thread: The Road To AFCON 2023, 2025 And 2026 World Cup by tbaba1234: 6:42pm On Nov 03, 2016 |
goldfish80: Truth be told, i think Alampasu is better than both Akpeyi and Ezenwa but the experience factor is against him. Akpeyi should start. |
Re: "The Super Eagles Thread: The Road To AFCON 2023, 2025 And 2026 World Cup by goldfish80(m): 6:44pm On Nov 03, 2016 |
tbaba1234:For a goalie, being talented is not enough. Exposure matters alot |
