Onazi on his performance

Onazi should not make it look like a one day thing. It is a regular occurrence from him. He should get ready to shield and protect the defence or step down.

So u are just going to ignore the question? Good teams cover for each other btw.

Good teams cover when it is their roles to do so. Not for someone to get erratic and run off his position and want others to cover. Maybe you do not get it. Onazi wants to play against Instruction and play another role. Expecting another to play his role. He is being childish. Do his job or get out. He wants to run off his role and another play it. Is that the game plan? It is gross indiscipline and his comment shows he consciously exposes us.

oga with that kind of pressure from England,everybody for defend not just the defensive pair

Everybody defending as a Unit was not the problem but the defensive shield neglecting his Primary duty and causing disorganzation of the team.

The last part caught my attention.
Onazi: some people cannot be running for the team while some people are just standing looking.


Anyone who knows how to read a match will tell you Mikel and Iwobi were not defending when they lost the ball.

If you play football you go dey angry with them.

Another angle to Leroy Sane's Omission from world cup squad. I heard from Brila fm that he was invited for the confederation cup but the guy said he wan do nose surgery. The same nose he dey put bandage carry dey play for Manchester City. The back room staff don talk say the thing no go down well for Joachim's body. He carry am for mind since dey wait when he go hit am him own below the belt. Julian Brandt answered the call, the coach don reward his royal players come dey tell us na team system. grin grin grin


You know say, people no dey think about the future when dem dey make some decisions. Sometimes this players should be given this kind of treatment to serve as a lesson to others. Some may feel they are invisible in the team because of the Club dem dey play and how big they feel they are. Icardi did anyhow with a team mate's wife abi na ex wife. The whole team don get bad blood for am. Joachim don send him massage to his other team mates, I am sure dem go write am somewhere for dem heart for future reference and reminder. And you know dem don give am another contract, if he does well in Euro, he go stay for 2022 world cup. And you know say Germans no dey forgive easily.

Now, This brings it down to our own team, You see Players like Moses go dey form larger than life in and off the pitch. He go get ball he no go release am at the right time. Iheanacho go lose possession, he no go track back go help recover the ball. Some of these actions are because they feel they are invisible in the team. This nonsense can cost a team when you meet a no nonsense team. They don't care because they know that there will be no consequence for their actions .

When a footballer knows that if he does Anyhow, he go see Anyhow, his brain go dey alright. Just like Moses who knows there will be consequences if he plays Anyhow for Chelsea and Moses who knows that there will be no consequence if he plays Anyhow for Nigeria.

I know I hit a nerve whenever someone mentions Osas. It is simple psychology and I didnt expect any less hence, I added "controversial opinion" as a prefix in my initial post.
Truth is that Aina was given chances and he failed. One of the reasons people praised Aina was his versatility to play on either flanks but I am surprised same fans are saying he wasn't given a chance on his preferred position.
Why was he sold as being able to play on either flanks the first place?

If you like, talk about Osas and his grand father it wouldn't change my opinion that Aina is not a good fit and guys like Stanley Amuzie at Sampdoria would have done better if given equal opportunity accorded to Aina.
At right back, Musa Mohammed, Tyronne Ebuehi and Nura Mohammed are far more talented than Aina and they will certainly have a big say in the future of that position for Ngr.
It is time Aina's fans start adjusting to the realities of the future.

Musa Mohammed wey no fit make bench for Turkish league and ordinary Bulgarian league na em dey far more talented?

Somebody wey don dey win MOTM awards in his first full season, na em no get talent?

I can tell you Ebuehi is not better than Ehizibue but na wetin you see you wan see.

Goldfish has a very solid point. Aina was sold on his ability to play both full backs and it was on that premise he was invited. But the right back was already occupied and he had to be pushed to where help was needed,LB. However,I still feel he should be given another chance but this time in the RB which is his natural position.

As relates to talent I can't make a comparison between him and Musa because I haven't seen him play in the RB

They ask him to sit back but expect people to be forming Messi. If everybody is working defensively it would allow him the opportunity to sit back but as it is now the guy is expected to win back every single ball. There were balls that all our players needed to do was stretch out a leg but that just lazily watched them go by. Nobody can hide from the fact that Onazi was poor yesterday but to ignore common logic just to prove that point can be deadly.

my brother dey say common sense is not common

Idowu got recommended to the SE because of the LB option he can play and the recommendation came from what he did as CB this season. his calling came from his performance this season. (Played CB majorly this season)

And because of this the English players had enough time on the ball to make decent decision.

Agreed that Onazi was awful, what he said is very very true. I'm just hoping it's not the beginning of infighting in the team.

When some of us called attention to the fact that this team is at best average earlier on this thread, Safarigirl and Tbaba almost skinned us alive. I hope we have all seen it.

I keep seeing another 2002 WC outing for Nigeria

1 point in 3 matches. I pray I'm wrong.
One thing I have learnt about pre-tournament friendlies is that coaches use them to test players. In '98 holland beat eagles 5-1 in a friendly but eagles went ahead to stun the world by beating spain and bulgaria. Our collapse against Denmark was due to financial issues, lack of focus and bad prep. Friendlies can be tricky.

Arsenal starlet Alex Iwobi has suggested that he is not playing in his best position for the Nigerian National Team.

The Hale End Academy product has played in a variety of roles for club and country, including left winger, right winger, left midfield, attacking midfield and center forward, but he prefers playing in the number ten role.

''For me, I have always grown up playing in number ten, not striker but close to the striker. That has always been my position growing up,'' Iwobi said to ACL Sports.

''I have learnt to adapt to a different position, I have played left midfield, I have played central midfield, I have played right midfield.

''I have played in a number of positions but my favourite position will probably be number ten.''

Leading up to the World Cup, Iwobi is one of Nigeria's most in-form offensive players, with four goals in his last seven matches for the Super Eagles.

I don't think even Aina would blame Rohr for not fielding him on the right. You people are just making noise out of nothing. Aina will live to fight another day. I wish him the best in his return to SE



Aina:

''It's the same really and I don't see too much of a difference," Aina told hullcitytigers.com.

"I feel comfortable on the left, as I do on the right, and I still look to take the opportunity to get forward when I can.

''It felt like I had a lot of space in that sense on Tuesday night and I enjoyed that."
