It's like a totally different team that came on in the 2nd half.

What a dream start for Brian Idowu. First touch of the game - goal!




O pari
Seriously that's a good omen. I always keep an eye on players who score on their debut

He did well today but we shouldn't use just one game to displace a tested Shehu, he has more games to play to cement his place
TheGoodJoe:
Big shout out to Ebuehi. Shehu Abdullahi was having a nice game but the injury gave Ebuehi the chance to show what he can do.

What is impressive about Ebuehi is the ease he runs up and down the flanks. With the right timing. Shehu has served well and is yet to have a bad game. However, Ebuehi gets my pick.

somehow:
Yes he's better.

Looks more like a professional GK than the rest.
So happy, so far looks like we have a decent young talented who can improve his game, but quility enough to learn while on the game.

That defence is now war zone.

Players sure (minus injury)

Ekong
Balogun
Awaziem
Shehu

Battlers
Idowu
Aina
Echejile
Agbo
Omeruo
Ebuehi

And out of this list of 10, maximum 8 can be picked and more probable is 7 defenders. Unfortunately one of Idowu, Ebuehi, Echejile and Aina to be dropped. Let's wait and see. I want us to take Aina but hmmm.

Fixed!

Either of Agbo or Omeruo won't make the List! Perhaps both could even miss out on the List.

I totally agree. There's so much similarities between his game and NK25.


O pari

TheGoodJoe:
I pointed out the similarities in play between Iwobi and Kanu Nwankwo. Today's second goal reminded me a lot of Kanu.

Iwobi might be Okocha's nephew but he got Kanu's blood in his vain. Props to the young man.

Moses Simon will have to fight again for a starting shirt.

Who has noticed that Iwobi's 4 goals so far have all come from the AM position?

I think both would miss out. Agbo hasn't seen any actions in months. Both Ekong and Balogun are fixed, and Awazien is the #3 option.

That's what I have always said: Iwobi is an AM and should play there if we want to get the best out of him. The only down side to his game right now is that he just can't last 90 mins and he could do more defensively as well.

It was magical. In fact, those two players: Brian Idowu and Tyronne Ebuehi have to play if we want to play a 3-4-3 formation. They are the closest things we have to Wingbacks in this team.

Rohr changed the personnel to suit the formation and the result is evident.
Ebuehi is a wingback while Shehu is a Full back! 2 options for different systems.
You said it early this morning. We are gunning for tactical flexibility. O my God and we are trying this for the first time!

Ebuehi na real slow poison ooo. Fear quiet people ooo because you go run when dey unleach their demons.
I think people erroneously undermine Ebuehi because of his frame and quiet nature but dude is so classy with the ball on his feet.

Now, you can understand why I've always called upon my prayer warriors, since after the South Africa game, to ensure that Akpeyi would never smell the field during our matches? The dude is hopeless - no more, no less!
