Uzoho's one vs one save against Lewa was what Courtouis couldn't do vs barca. Same angle but funny he saved it with his blokos ![]() 5 Likes |

komekn:Well from what l saw, defensively Ebuehi positions himself better than Shehu, and even though he attacks he is not easily caught out of position. |

If Uzoho will be first choice, no need testing the other keepers, he needs a lot of exposure before the WC. Moses India Iwobi could switch off for most part of the game but they mostly have their moment of brilliance which could lead to a goal No one comes close to being a replacement to Ndidi and Mikel, they must be fit. Confidence and team spirit is growing, the team believe they can win, this is good for the World Cup 2 Likes |

I noticed some few issues in that match. Congratulations though to the Super Eagles: 1. Victor Moses is skillful but selfish 2. Joel Obi is talented, tested and trusted 3. Alex Iwobi does not tick in every physical game. Even that against South Africa, he was lost. The Polish team were too physical for him. 4. Wilfred Ndidi, Shehu Abdullahi and Troost Ekong are both rock solid. 5. Francis Uzoho needs more friendly games to boost his confidence. Maduka Okoye should also be drafted in too. 1 Like |

Admittedly I've never really watched Joel play until yesterday and judging by the hype here prior to the game, I had high expectations from him but I was left unimpressed. Didn't really see any world class moment. Just average. Our interplay was poor yesterday but it was expected. We played away against a team 6th in world football. We had an impotent attack too. Overall, I think we were lacking confidence and needed someone to inspire that. That's where mikel comes in. We'll take the win anyways. Gearing up for Serbia. I hope for a Barca esque display in Hive. In congo4ka's voice. my fellow eagulians ![]() 3 Likes |

Mikel Agu Mikel Agu has been handed a late Super Eagles call-up as a replacement for skipper Mikel Obi, who is now no longer expected in London for Tuesday’s World Cup warm-up against Serbia. “Mikel Agu has got a late call-up,” Eagles spokesman Toyin Ibitoye disclosed. Mikel Obi has yet to finalise his work permit in China and that has meant he will not be available for the friendlies against Poland and Serbia. Defensive midfielder Mikel Agu has shone for Turkish club Bursaspor on loan from FC Porto, but he has struggled to reproduce such form for the Super Eagles. 2 Likes 1 Share |

tbaba1234:. I disagree with him on poland lacking energy. Infact poland was so energetic and brutal that i almost thought we were playing an African side, in addition they had too many playerd behind the ball and that affected our counter attacking football. Anytime Nigeria countered, the bulluish polish fouled us. tbh with you, both teams played well amd it was a great result for Nigeria. Poland was very technical despite not been blessed with so many world class players. Mikel would have been a spark for us, hope he will play Serbia? 2 Likes |

Humility017:we just need Mikel available for the World Cup and we go dey alright. I don't see why you guys are making such a fus about Mikel Every team has a talisman, an irreplaceable one at that, and their back-ups are usually not very impressive. It's Lewandoski for Poland, CR7 for Portugal, Messi for Argentina, Salah for Egypt and Mikel for Nigeria. How many of those teams are making a fuss about capable replacements? 6 Likes 2 Shares |
