I understand, but I hope I can actaully state that balogun performance for me needs to be improved, both club and country

korlahwarleh:


Must you guys add Aluko and Obagoal in almost every sentence you make?
You guys will find it very hard to explain to any sane mind that you're not paid for this?
This is not funny anymore and it's exasperating at the same time. You're even making some of us "hate" these players.
Look at what you wrote up there for instance. Are they Messi or Ronaldo.
Let me add mine.... Micheal Eneramo, victor anichebe, Ayodele makinwa...... And the cup is ours!

Martz101:


Yes sir, though just like Mikel he sometimes play in CM and DM position

forgiveness:


Show me the snapshot where he plays as a AM like you did for Aluko?

. Who freaking cares?? Some two years ago when the NFF were as bad as they could get,nobody complained about feminism. Now that the NFF have managed to recuperate and are trying very hard I must say,to revive Nigerian football and take it to the optimum level,all of a sudden some are quick to judge,calling them anti feminists who don't wanna develop female football. They want to milk them as much as possible now that the going is good. How would you feel breastfeeding new born twins at the same time? You just won't keep up. Highest,you'll make sure one is well fed before the other starts. That's just life.


My heart sternly yearns for Nigerian female football improvement and I definitely wanna see Oshoala,Oparanozie,Ordega,Omidji,Orji play again(especially Omidji who I haven't seen play yet) but they should understand that the NFF itself is still a work in progress and that very soon,these talks will be over and the light will shine bright on both sides of our national football

Football is not static and neither are football players. Some improve on upwards spiral and some are on a continous downward spiral.

Don't use old glories or past failings to ascertain a player. The reality is that OBAGOAL is currently the most consistent striker we have over the past 10 years.

Everywhere he has been whatever the league he has been outstanding.

Currently with better statistics than both KC and Ighalo. That's the reality. Unless you are prejudiced which many are then you can not deny his quality.

If we can invite Ajayi then why not Obagoal.

The relevant question is what's his current level of performance❓ Not what happened a decade ago.

There are so many players that have had resurgences in thier careers much later on. He is not as old as many top players yet we dismissed him for players who may never ever reach the level he has.

Firstly, he is certainly not too old after all is he older than Robben Arjen, Jermain Defoe, Danny Alves, Evra, Iniesta, Mascherano and yes even Christiano Ronaldo are all in the same range or older.

So what's the biggie Or just plain bad belle.

Consider the depth of experience and technical know how that OBAGOAL brings to the table. He could be the missing quality link.

Mujtahida:

He would have killed off some of our counter attack had he played in the Argentina match. He should grow up abeg. I used to defend him but let him think more of the team.

Mickael2:



CBs are not meant to be drawn out except maybe during counter attacks. But when you are defending full time there is absolutely no reason for you to be there, what if you push out and they cross the ball creating an overload?

tbaba1234:

Joel is not an AM..

MetalJigsaw:
Oga ,Agu flopped in 3 matches in succession. I'm tired of your argument.

Bye bye

E Be like say the guy na your brother

edi287:

CBs cover for fullbacks occasionally. The DM can slot in and form a 3 while both full backs bomb forward.

tbaba1234:


If the CB is closer to the ball that the DM, of course he will go after it while the DM covers for him.

Mickael2:


if the CB is closer to the ball then either the CB is out of position or the DMF does not know his work

DerideGull:
I have not seen any ball juggler or skillful ball handler in the Super eagle’s midfield since the retirement of Okocha and Nwankwo. Even fluid footballers such as Finidi George and Amunike are hard to see in the recent super eagle’s line up. I think Ihenancho could be coached to handle the function but he seems to lose his footings quite easily. Super eagles will have tough tine in Moscow without a fluid midfield.

isan:
How a moniker attack me when i called for junior ajayi to be invited lol

tbaba1234:
This is the likely lineup for Tuesday. This is the line-up for their final training...Uzoho is likely to start again..

Uzoho -

Ebuehi, Balogun, Troost-Ekong, Idowu -

Onazi, Ndidi, Joel Obi -

Victor Moses, Alex Iwobi,

Ahmed Musa

TheSuperNerd:
The possible midfield combo of Ndidi-Onazi-Joel looks good on paper. It is one of the options I suggested for Tuesday (others were Ndidi-Ogu-Joel or Ndidi-Onazi-Ogu)..... cool.

But wow... look at that front line... Musa up top... flanked by Iwobi and Moses. Hmmmm...

Hmmmm... seems Ighalo may start from the bench then as Rohr looks to utilise Musa's speed thru the center and especially on the counter. Musa have played in such role before for CSKA Moscow so let's see what he brings in that role if he indeed gets to start against Serbia.

But it is a most wise decision to continue with Uzoho for this game. Lad needs this momentum.
