Bue me don't like this Agu oohh
dude has never impressed me for once

wish we had other options like Azeez

Olulong:


In addition, Ebuehi ahead of Aina and Leon Balogun ahead of Awaziem

MetalJigsaw:
Why do you prefer Simy to him? Is Simy faster or better than him?

Danielnino00:


But still, Napoli couldn't disobey the government order...
The FA might have a brain of their own,but they are still under the control of the government.
If the government orders that they shut down the league,they will!

BascoVanVeli:



That's a very bad excuse for Iheanacho because Osimhen also drifts into Samu's space and pulls crosses in at times. I think he has gotten so much better than the last time he started against Algeria in Uyo. He can hold up play so well and his link up is what we need.


Agu and Onyeka are the only option so what are you not sure about?

How has Awaziem been off form? He is undefeated this season in Portugal. The only match his club has lost is the one he missed against Porto. Awaziem, Omeruo and Semi are the only starting for their clubs at the moment. Omeruo missed his last match so Awaziem by default

BascoVanVeli:


Azeez is not a dmf.

Danielnino00:


Balogun ahead of Awaziem??
The Algerians have pace oo...
I'd rather have Balogun start against Tunisia

BascoVanVeli:


Azeez is not a dmf.

Subzero047:


Awaziem is not much faster than Balogun but Balogun has far more technical intelligence

Danielnino00:


Awaziem is much faster than Balogun please..
Technical intelligence won't count for much when the Algerians come blazing at us...
Let Balogun start against Tunisia abeg..

Transfer News/Speculations: Deadline Day

Note: Domestic transfer business will still be conducted in England till October 16


✔Tosin Adarabioyo to Fulham. Strong speculation.


✔Frank Onyeka to a Top 5 league side. Missed his side's league game on Sunday as his agent confirmed he is leaving and that the move will be announced soon. We wait.


✔Onazi has been unveiled by Sønderjyske. He joins Rilwan Hassan at the club. Transfer was confirmed on Sunday.


✔Sadiq Umar to Almeria. 9-10 Million euros + bonuses and a 20% sell-on clause for Partizan has been reported. Strong links. We wait.

Subzero047:
Sterling is out of England squad with injuries

So Saka may start sooner than we thought

humility33:

Onyeka will play the Dm role and allow Azeez play the CM

Subzero047:
Meanwhile Kwara United have signed Brazilian winger Lucas Alves

Subzero047:


Awaziem is not even fast When you are tactically sound sometimes you don't need to run

BascoVanVeli:
This is how I would line up against Algeria given the circumstances. I believe Agu and Onyeka might be a match made in heaven because they compliment each other's quality. Agu sits back and gives passes to start of the attack while Onyeka does everything box to box so there won't be an issue of getting in anyone's way like when Etebo and Ndidi play.


Either way it goes we will have quality players both on the field and on the bench

TheSuperNerd:
Omeruo, Moses Simon and Samuel Kalu on their arrival in Austria...

Danielnino00:


He is definitely faster than Balogun..

A centre back needs to be fast..
Do you think Omeruo won't have been able to stop Messi from scoring that goal against us at the world cup he was fast enough to catch up with him??

The Algerians are pacy...they aren't your regular jam body team...

TheSuperNerd:
Obviously an "otu" back home.

Subzero047:


Awaziem is not fast, did you see how Ansu Fati skinned him against Barca? Even if you are fast you have to have defensive intelligence otherwise you'll be a running practice cone

Balogun can effectively cut off running channels and use his body to prevent strikers running in behind for a faster partner, if there is a defender I want against the Algerians it is definitely not Awaziem

Subzero047:
Meanwhile Kwara United have signed Brazilian winger Lucas Alves

Danielnino00:


The game against Barca was just one.... Awaziem had some good games in laliga too. Balogun also had some poor games in the EPL too..
The Algerians are pacy and skillful.. Games like this require you to match them pace for pace... Maybe Awaziem isn't fast,but compared to Balogun,he is faster..

Subzero047:


What stats, was he in the team of the tournament?

TheSuperNerd:
Unless Azeez has been called up. So far, no replacement has been called up for Etebo. Rohr may settle for what he has and he also mentioned recently that Semi Ajayi can play DMF too. So until Azeez is called up, then he will stay left out of the friendlies.

daveP:
onuachu will start instead
