zicky:If u have a mid-field with the likes of Mikel,Ndidi,Etebo,Ogu and Onazi and still fail to score as a nine you have failed.Ighalo's goal drought sent him out of watford.Iheanacho benched at City because the two other strikers are better than him. He(Nacho) is even finding it difficult to score for Leicester. Forget all those "off-the ball movement".If u fail to score as a nine for your team u have failed. But the "failure" I mean here means that the both of them are not suited for the lone Striker system. Hence,we should give others (Dennis and Cyriel) the chance to see what they can offer.Getting Tammy will also be nice. |

forgiveness:Wrong,According to a close source, Azeez was about to step-in to replace the injured Onazi but Mikel kicked against this by waving.Reuben Gabriel dressed-up and entered the pitch. |

forgiveness:we have a lot of wingers in the team presently, including Onyekuru. We only need back-ups to our CB's and Echiejile's replacement. |

forgiveness: While watching the France VS Nigeria match, when Azeez was to come in to replace Onazi, I exclaimed. "They will kill him." Luckily, Mikel Obi yelled to Keshi waving his hands that he should not bring in Azeez. I guess Mikel Obi envisioned what I thought. Deschamps set his boys to go for blood. Ambrose and Onazi were at the receiving end. That game was not one for Azeez. |

Messi List Game Against Nigeria Among His Favourite Games For Argentina Argentina and global football icon Lionel Messi has surprisingly picked one of the games he played against Nigeria as one of his favourite for his country Argentina. Widely regarded by some as the greatest footballer of all time, the five time winner of the Ballon d’or made this known during an interview shortly after his hattrick against Ecuador powered Argentina to the World Cup. Messi has come up against Nigeria twice at age grade level, namely the 2005 World Youth Championship and also the 2008 Olympic in Beijing, and on both occasion he lead Argentina to victory. At senior level he has scored in three times in the three games he has played against Nigeria, a brace at the last World Cup in Brazil and a goal in a friendly game played in Malaysia in 2012. Speaking to Sky Sports Spanish journalist Guillem Balague who has written books and documentary about the 30 year old revealed the favourite games Messi said he has played for Argentina. ” He was speaking after his hattrick for Argentina against Ecuador, he was asked his best games for his country and he picked his debut at the World Cup against Serbia which Argentina won 6-0, and also the final game of the Olympic in Beijing which they won 1-0 against Nigeria, then the game against Ecuador “, Balague said.

Onuachu leads Midtjylland to victory ![]() The Nigerian forward was on hand to score the only goal of the game as the Wolves handed defeat to Claus Nørgaard’s men Paul Onuachu was the matchwinner as Midtjylland secured a 1-0 away victory over Soenderjyske in a Danish Superliga encounter on Friday evening. The lanky forward’s goal came in the 73rd - after he benefitted from a Gustav Wikheim assist - to lead Jess Thorup’s side to their fourth consecutive win in the division. Onuachu’s effort at the Sydbank Park was his seventh in nine league encounters, 11th in 15 appearances in all competitions this season. The 23-year-old was taken off in the 89th minute while compatriot, Rilwan Hassan was replaced by goal provider, Wikheim in the 20th minute after he was at the receiving end of a hard tackle. The Wolves are top of the Danish topflight log after garnering 25 points from 12 games. And they welcome Horsens to the MCH Arena in their next league encounter on October 20. m.goal.com/x/en-ng/news/4110/african-all-stars/2017/10/14/39396982/onuachu-leads-midtjylland-to-victory 1 Like |

EEGA:Look at the midfielders you called as if they are the best in the world, how many can give a neat clean pass to a striker outside Mikel, a player(nacho) with 9goals in 13games for his country has failed, bring your Dennis, Cyril and Tammy, when they don't outscore nacho with ur world class midfielders behind them then we tag them failures and continue our search for another striker 2 Likes |

Certitude: you blame him for two nations cup failures where he took over for the last two games but if I blame Rohr for our woeful performance against SA you will say it is part of the rebuilding process? That he is just new to the job right? Fear God. There are two things you should do, go and watch the match we played against Guinea, the draw and tell me if it in anyway compares to the woeful performance against SA, we had the chances in that game but the players missed them, it's just like blaming Pep for City's lack of a true finisher last season. Then watch those two friendlies against Argentina, even the one we lost and see just how good tactically he is. We are not saying Siasia is a better a manager but better tactician? It is not even close 2 Likes |

Joebie: Oga! Ajagun don dey play everywhere for field since he singlehandedly led Dolphin to win the league. He continued at Greece and Eredivise. ![]() Why did Yannis-Anastasiou deployed him in the RM position? It is because he has played him there before . Simple. ![]() Meaning, he has been tried, tested and approved with a rubber stamp. GBAM! ![]() Unlike, Joel Obi who has never been played as an AM in his whole career save one. ![]() Abi, how many times did Joel Obi played as AMF over his career and when last? ![]() If it's not necessarily about versatility then we should put Iheanacho on the LB position since he's left footed and since we need an urgent replacement. ![]() He should have come in for Echiejile immediately he got injured. Don't you think so? ![]() The point still remains that Ajagun is versatile and he continues to play in various positions regularly from season to seasons unlike Joel Obi who never played the AMF for 7 years. I am not saying he should not be tried but I am saying you don't just assume he can without been tested prior to the world Cup. ![]() Point of correction, Vicmo is not playing as a wing back in Chelsea, he has so far played as the RM. ![]() No bi transfermarkt or Google you take know Ajagun played for the same coach because you were never aware? ![]() |

zicky:A good national team keeps on searching for the best. Even Baxter said "Nigeria front three lack quality".If I could recall then Iheanacho sits on the bench for City,Iwobi hardly gets playing time before the match and S.Moses with problem of poor crosses. To instill the spirit of hard-work,improvement and consistency in a team you need competition, and this will be better offered by new invitees who want to claim a shirt. Modified:If Iheanacho is as good as you said, why did Rohr leave him on the bench for 3 games. Even Rohr keeps on searching for a "good" nine. |

forgiveness: You can not compare the system the Spaniards play to that of Nigeria. Our team plays in a more disjointed way. We also play with pace, so you can make a harsh tackle and get away with it. The Spaniards are highly positional. That is why even the lightest touch can earn them a free kick. Onazi and Ambrose were not the first injured in that game. These are two physically strong players. |
