Read this article when u have the time, to understand why I dont want Tosin anywhere near Barca B. Barca is only looking for players outside to help keep the B team afloat in the segunda div, they dont have any clear pathways to bring these guys to the first team in laliga. Dont be deceived. https://everythingbarca.com/2018/05/19/barcelona-could-lose-another-la-masia-youngster-summer/ The plan is nothing but to keep the team B afloat in the segunda div They wanted to do same thing to Ismaila Sarr of Senegal but he refused opting for Rennes instead and today he is enjoying that decision as big clubs are justling for his signature after showcasing his talent with a modest ligue 1 team, helping them win an Europa league place. |

goldfish80: 2015-2016 is part of Iheanacho's time at Manchester City. I am trying to show you that your Manchester City tap ins ideology is false. I have already pointed out from 14 from all his goals at City. So you need to bring at least 12 tapins to have your tap ins ideology having weight. Gerrit? I can even increase the number with his goal against Roma in the Friendly, goal against Kansas. Show us how Nacho is a tap in striker. |

TheGoodJoe: What is offensive system bro? I believe that the team is offensive when they are better than their opposition. Guardiola or pelegrini are offensive because of the nature of the clubs they are managing. Benfica and Celtic night be regarded as offensive in their respective domestic leagues but defensive in UCL or UEL so it is largely down to the team strength, the coach is a plus. I'm not rubbishing the impact of possessive coaches but the team is always no.1 Put Guardiola at the bench of Gijon or Newcastle, he will be relying on break and quick counter when playing bigger bigger teams. |

Chrismario: Actually not true at all. Look at our team for instance. We were negative in the first half in the Friendly match against Argentina and in the second half we played in a more offensive fashion against Argentina and caused them problems. The same squad options but different playing style. |

Chrismario: There are coaches like Roberto Martinez, Marcelo Bielsa and Brendan Rodgers who played in brave offensive manners without having big money bags. Even if you put Pellegrini in Leicester City today, they will play offensive football unlike what they play now. It has a lot to do with the philosophy of the manager. |
Re: "The Super Eagles Thread: The Road To AFCON 2025 And 2026 World Cup by TheGoodJoe(m): 7:14am On Jul 01, 2018 |
Chrismario: Are you talking of the Friendly or the main game? In the Friendly, the changes came from the wing back changes where we brought in offensive wing backs in Idowu and Ebuehi. In the game against Argentina, none of our players including Moses found it easy to keep the ball. Argentina was on top the game and all we did was give Argentina the ball. Nacho came under heavy criticism because he was trying to make things happen under a very negative condition. However, I was still impressed with his overall play which involved us fighting for the ball and trying to shut Argentina down. People make it look as if we were running Argentina down and Iheanacho was dragging the team back, while no one was able to perform in that condition. |
Re: "The Super Eagles Thread: The Road To AFCON 2025 And 2026 World Cup by TheGoodJoe(m): 7:19am On Jul 01, 2018 |
Chrismario: Bayern Munich was not offensive when playing under Van Gaal and drew a lot of criticism. When Jupp Heynckes took over the team, there was an immediate transformation in their playing style and they started scoring a lot of goals while conceding very few. That was the same team but performing differently in a different system. It is not just players that determines quality of play but also the system. Nacho is best suited in direct attacking system. That is why he did well in some of the counter attacks under Guardiola. When the ball is coming forward with pace, he thrives. The more offensive the system, the better he flourishes. |

jihday:The big question has Iheanacho really developed as player we all projected to be in no distant future. Whether he is a tap in machine or not is not the issue cos Van Nisteroy was a tap in merchant with a class.Gabriel Jesus is a box striker with good ball movement Truth must be told,Iheanacho needs to rediscover himself cos his performance at WC wasn't good enough especially against Argentina,very abysmal. Eagles is evolving and in next few months am seeing young players coming in with great prospect and if Iheanacho didn't raise up his game am seeing his relevancy and the tag of golden boy of Nigeria football disappearing. I'm very glad hearing about possible reunification with his former boss cos he did well under him at man city but need to prove himself under any coach. Hope to see better Iheanacho next season. 3 Likes |

Fadiga24: In 2005, he led the U20 Team to win the African Youth Championship. In 2005, he narrowly lost to Argentina in the Final of U20 World Cup as a Runner up. When was the last time we did well in the Competition since 2005?! In 2008, the U-23 team won the inaugural Intercontinental Cup in Malaysia. The Team was composed entirely of domestic Nigerian players and won the Cup against many teams headed for the 2008 Summer Olympic Games. We were grouped with the host Nation, Ireland and Iraq. Guess what we didn't lose a Match and won the Group by 7 Points. The Runner up in the Group, Ireland, had 4 Points. We beat Chile in the Semi-Final by 2 - 1 and won the Australia in the Final to clinch the Trophy by 2 unreplied Goals. In 2008, he coached the Nigerian Under-23 Olympic squad to the final against Argentina. In a superbly played series of matches, Nigeria's team earned the Olympic Silver Medals. Do you wanna know the Squad of Argentina that Siasia led U23 Team narrowly lost to?! Argentina (ARG) Oscar Ustari Ezequiel Garay Luciano Fabián Monzón Pablo Zabaleta Fernando Gago Federico Fazio José Ernesto Sosa Éver Banega Ezequiel Lavezzi Juan Román Riquelme (captain) Ángel Di María Nicolás Pareja Lautaro Acosta Javier Mascherano Lionel Messi Sergio Agüero Diego Buonanotte Sergio Romero Nicolás Navarro In 2016, he was recalled to coach the U23 Team for the RIO Olympics. We weren't unable to go with our best Legs, yet he led the Team to win Bronze Medals. Let me help you with a List of Players Siasia won the bronze Medal with at the RIO Olympics. 1. Daniel AKPEYI 2. Muenfuh SINCERE 3. Kingsley MADU 4. Abdullahi SHEHU 5. Saturday ERIMUYA 6. William EKONG 7. Aminu UMAR 8. Oghenekaro ETEBO 9. Imoh EZEKIEL 10. John Obi MIKEL 11. Junior AJAYI 12. Popoola SALIU 13.

Fadiga24: Mind you Siasia was never given a fair Chance at the Senior National Team. The first time he was appointed, it was for a Rescue Mission after the Eagles abysmal Performance at the 2010 World Cup. He was appointed in November 2010 and sacked in October 2011 - not up to a Year Bruh - for failing to qualify us for the AFCON 2012 though. He did his Best to get us qualified but was killed by the Naivete of the technical Unit of the NFF. They weren't assembled to sit and discuss Ludo Game, rather to look after the National Teams from the technical Point of View. We won a Match and lost a Match (to the Group eventual Winner) prior to his Appointment. We didn't lose a single qualifying Match under him. We walloped Ethiopia 4 - 0 in Nigeria, and came from behind to draw 2 - 2 in the away Match. We defeated Madagascar 2 - 0 on their Home Soil but poorly conceded a late Goal against Guinea in Nigeria to draw 2 - 2. Do you know why? It's because the Damage was done before Siasia was appointed coz we lost to them on their Home Soil. We were leading 2 - 1 by 84". Siasia was considering H2H (Away Goal) Rule, thus he wanted one more Goal to seal our Qualification, but unluckily conceded in the last Minute of the Match. Had he well informed of what he's needed to qualify us for the Tourney, he wouldn't have gone Gung-ho to win the last qualifying Match. So how could he be termed a FLOP with this kinda Results and Performances? His second Spell was interim and only lasted for few Weeks. He was appointed to steady the Ship after the Resignation of Nigerian Pep Guardiola - Sunday Oliseh. NFF have already made up their Mind to hire a foreign Coach, hence Siasia was never considered, he was rather appointed to hold the Team together until a foreign Coach is appointed, which he did honorably. 3 Likes |
