safarigirl: Very brilliant reply and post. I believe Kovacic, Modric and Rakitic will watch Leicester City games with more intent because they know he is going to be one of the players out to disrupt their play. |

TheGoodJoe: We are talking about modern CF not versatile players. In this case, we don't have. |

The funniest part of the Modric dribble of Gomes was when Gomes tried to trip Modric and still staggered. |

forgiveness:Pls which one is modern CF or traditional striker again cos i remember 23 year ago all our FW were potential goal scorers and check US 94 team,Amokachie 2 goals,Amuneke 2 goals,Siasia 1 goal,Findi 1 goal,Yekini 1 goal and i don't think there was anything like modern CF during this period. What we have in that team was top 9 which is Yekini but with your analysis and thegoodjoe am really confused on the role of Amokachie, Amuneke, Siasia,Finidi,do we called them modern CF?cos they are real goal poachers and Yekini as traditional striker. The present eagle is not different from US squad if you check our goals statistics our forwards shared similar traits with what we have at US 94.They are real goal scorers. Truly football has evolved but not much cos this your modern CF was used by Westerhoff but with the presence of traditional striker. Now back to your comment you said we dont have modern CF but what are Iheanacho,Iwobi,Vic Moses,Simeon Moses,Onyekwuru,Kayode? Remember with our traditional striker in Nwakaeme we could only scored a goal against Algeria but in his absence we had four goals against Argentina, My question now with the absence of traditional striker against Argentina,who was our CF cos you said we don't have modern CF and what really make a player a modern CF and even traditional striker. 3 Likes |

TheGoodJoe: The club does not want Iheanacho to go but they had to respect Guardiol's decision hence the need for Man city to play safe should incase Guardiola fails and moves on. |

Kog45: Back in 1994, talent and ability wise is not different from today. However, roles are different which suits the modern game. Back then, we had the wingers, Finidi, Amunike, and the support strikers like Amokachi. We had the hitmen or finishers. Yekini and Siasia. A versatile striker could also play the support striking role. Today, a player like Neymar can play on the left wing, right wing, support striking role or lead the attack. Players were not giving such freedom in the past. |
Re: "The Super Eagles Thread: The Road To AFCON 2023, 2025 And 2026 World Cup by Kog45(m): 8:09pm On Dec 07, 2017 |
TheGoodJoe:OK but forgiveness said we don't have modern CF in this present team and which look a little bit confusing cos we nailed Argentina without a traditional striker. |

Danielnino00: Balogun/Ekong will deal with strikers like Mandzukic better than strikers like Suarez for instance. Players like Aboubakar and Slimani could not show anything. The Zambian striker Ngonga who was full of running was a handful for them. I think the creativity of Modric is a more important asset than what the others offer. 9 Likes |

forgiveness: Guardiola got Gabriel Jesus who had more attributes than Iheanacho. Not that Iheanacho lacked the attributes to play. Compared to those we have, Iheanacho is one that has lots of fine attributes to fit the modern game in our team. |

Kog45: He is just trying to act like if he does not get the point. The point is that Rohr prefers versatility. Even Nwakaeme switched roles during the Algerian game. We have more modern day forwards than traditional strikers. No one talked about Modern day center forward. Instead, modern day forwards who can play different roles. |

tbaba1234:That is also also what Croatia and the other teams will notice about our backline too. Press our backline and they'd lose possession. |

BascoVanVeli: If I say I am more worried about Lingard in the coming derby in Manchester, than Lukaku or Martial, does that mean I am saying Lingard is better than them? I am afraid of Lingard's pressing which will make it difficult for our defenders to keep possession. 2 Likes |

Icon4s:I think rohr have said it repeatedly...that the team to play gonna dictate the kind of formation to adopt... and for V Moses....being that we can play the 4-4-1-1 sometimes....he perfectly fits into all the formations....so there won't be a problem having the 3 RB....in the team. he can still play as a winger when we revert to the old formation... |

TheGoodJoe: that comment is illegal bro. Martial's like big toe is better than Lingard no matter how hard he presses. Also like I said there should be no circumstance barring injury that any Croat should be mentioned in the same breath as Modric, that's football blasphemy. |
Re: "The Super Eagles Thread: The Road To AFCON 2023, 2025 And 2026 World Cup by tbaba1234: 8:58pm On Dec 07, 2017 |
Humility017: I feel Ebuehi played the 3-5-2 system better than Shehu against Argentina but let us see him in more games first. He seems to recover better than Shehu though the whole team was poor in the first half. Shehu was outstanding in the qualifiers. We can adjust personnel depending on the approach to the game. |
