40mins gone. No wing play, Iwobi and Paul pressing alone on 3 occasions against 3 defenders excluding the keeper. They looked fitter, faster and hungrier. Their midfield has been compact. Poor decision making from our wingers are putting on our midfielders. Paul has not done badly at all as he was being painted here yesterday. Maybe second half. Our LB looks like the real deal but I will wait for the 5th match he plays to judge 1 Like |

mank1234:Midfield is the engine room of any team, one of them was a debutant the other one was playing there for the first time for us and the only regular was the one that impressed, Agu who have always been a part of the team came in and impress, do you think it's by coincidence? Kalu/Sanusi and Chuks/Ebuehi don't have any form of chemistry between them, would have been a great miracle if they had managed to do anything worthy. If Rohr had started Kelvin according to many prematch rumor, it would have been a massacre |

First half summary. We HAD NO WINGERS IN THAT MUCH AT ALL. PAUL WAS NOT IN ANYWAY THE REASON FOR OUR BLUNT ATTACK. THE TWO MIDFIELDERS PLAYING WITH IWOBI OBVIOUSLY NEED TO PLAY TOGETHER MORE AS THEY STRUGGLED WE NEED MORE WINGERS WHO CAN DO AN AVERAGE JOB CONSISTENTLY. IF OSIHMEN PLAYED TODAY HE WOULD SURELY HAVE PRESSED BETTER THAN PAUL BUT WILL STILL SUFFER THE SAME FATE IF THE WINGERS PLAYED LIKE THEY DID TODAY. DEFENCE WISE WE WERE NOT REALLY TROUBLED BY WHEN THEY BALOGUN HANDLED IT WELL 3 Likes |

And the Algerians were not poor in the first half by any margin, they just did not shift gear. |
Re: "The Super Eagles Thread: The Road To AFCON 2025 And 2026 World Cup by Sportilitica: 1:02pm On Oct 10, 2020 |
Simon Moses in for Kalu who played pretty poor for someone with such much skill and guile |

The biggest take I have from this game is that this Nigerian team lacks a clear structure and identity after being coached by same person for 4 years!!! This team relies too much on individual brilliance which isn't quite good enough. The Senegal side of 2002 and the Ghana side of 2010 had a of hanful of highly talented players but the rest were average at best but they outperformed more talented teams by having a clear structure and sound tactics. We were lucky Algeria weren't this organized during the WCQ. I think with Rohr in charge...the Super Eagles will be a decent at best but I don't see his team winning the AFCON or turning heads at the World cup if the team qualifies. 2 Likes |

JohnBullMySon: He made some valid points... Rohr has been with the team for 4 years and we are still not sure what style of play we are using... Is it tiki taka? Gengenpressing? Counter attacking? Park the ball style? |

Ajayi was the one playing DM,Agu came in for Onyeka at CM in the second half.. All this attempt to spite Ndidi in a game u didn't fully watch is comedic.... 1 Like |

[quote author=temi1290 post=94799325][/quote] Prove me wrong and stop sweating like a dog...lol Start watching when Agu joined...my focus is in creativity not block and tackle. After all ,your blocks and tackles didn't help you yesterday. It's very clear to see the team lacked creative players....nobi so ? They totally dominated you in the midfield( the real battle field). You think Iwobi can play that AM in the presence of these brutal desert Amazigh's....they will smoke him alive! |

When I said there'd always be space for a fit and in form Balogun as he brings balance to the team - someone here claimed i only said so because I wanted to see my "favorite oyinbo wall" smh. Now look how much dick riding Balogun is getting today. Anyways I need to watch the replay of the game as I dozed off around half time. The obvious thing I noticed was that midfield. A pivot of Onyeka - Ajayi was just sickening even for a conservative coach like Rohr. I hope all you Etebo critics see how important it is to have someone who can dribble out of the press. I'm not too worried about the result as it was a friendly with a makeshift side against a top top Algerian team. Let's see what Rohr does on Tuesday. |
