Re: Key stats 2023 AFCON: Top three dirtiest players from Nigeria; Onyeka top tackler and interceptor

Onyeka was my revelation of this tournament, I want to see what an Onyeka and Ndidi anchorship will look like. What we need is ball playing midfielders that have ability to give killer passes, carry ball forward, and score with long range shot. Tacklers and ball interceptor midfielders alone does n...

Re: Let's Revisit the 3-4-3 formation.

The issue with the SE is not the formation. We don't have ball handlers in the team just destroyers everywhere you look and we are woeful at pressing from the opponents half. Only Iwobi, Vic, Aina and Ekong to an extent looks up for the pass and no one shows up for it hence the hoofing and puffing O...

Re: YOU MAY HATE VANCITYEAGLE BUT .......

Having said all that, if I knew that insulting Musa on social media would result in his retirement I WOULD GLADLY DO IT. This is one player who deserves abuse. He has literally invited it. He does not wish Nigeria well. He is a selfish corrupt criminal and should be treated as such. But of course i...

Re: Why have our last two foreign coaches been defensive?

Both of them can't handle the pressure that comes with handling a so called big team. If they did property scouting we would not be afraid of the ball but the ṢE has been contoured to just wait and watch instead of imprint their style no matter the team they play. The difference between the ṢE and a...

yeah he should play the wings like he does for clubs, afterall Mane does not look lost when playing his natural position for Senegal. It will even be a plus having 3 natural midfielders with Iwobi as a compliment coming from the LW/RW.

Re: Iwobi needs to be phased OUT

The SE only have defence and attack and no midfield. CIV showed today that Midfield is the glue between both and the SE was missing that glue Attack is the best form of defence and fortune favors the brave The SE were timid throughout the game and it just so worked out that the bravest of the SE got...

Both are the same anyway, they pass when they feel like and go for the tightest of angles most times.

I forgot that is the rule, but still, I wonder why such is the case, though. Why not let the teams play the extra time, before the penalty shootouts?

Re: Nwakali and That Free Kick - Echoes of Rufai 98

I think we all can agree that Nwakali is the man . No argument there . However that almost last minute freekick he parried right into a South Afrcan players path brought back some Painful memories of Rufai against Denmark 98 and his repeated failures to parry away . Thankfully the south african boo...

Re: NOT DISCUSSED JUST YET: Key aspect of Nwabali's game....

Nwabali really has shown something that we have yet to see from Super Eagles goalies in history. I mean in history. He sweeps efficiently behind the defense. It comes with risks but he has not failed as of yet. He positions himself cleverly behind the defensive line to sniff out and snuff out any d...
