Re: Nigeria vs Ghana (2-1) Desser , Lookman FT

Why was Peseiro not playing Onyedika? Because from the little I have watched him, he appears lackadaisical. Anyway, it doesn't excuse Peseiro flogging the players with too many minutes. He is not lackadaisical. Just his game. He is a measured and calm specialist DM. Watch him a lot playing for Brug...

Re: Frank Onyeka

Limited in his shooting ability but the dude puts in a full shift every game. When Alhassan came on, it was Iwobi that got yanked, highlighting that he remains our first choice enforcer in the m/f. Just like Uzoho, Ndidi may have a tough fight on his hands to reclaim his shirt. His tackling is on p...

Re: Onyeka & Onyedika- Our Most important players

Osihmen is the man when it comes to scoring goals,yes, we all,agree. However, no team can make a deep run in a tournament without a good DM, the defensive MF sits at the core of the team and controls the pace of the game by breaking up play and keeping the ball moving with clean passes. I know 1 of...

Re: Peseiro names 25 man 2023 AFCON squad

Lolly Have you not figured that it is you and others who are missing the logic. In a squad of 25, what the manager does is select at least two players per position. Ofcourse, there are positions where you also have players with ability to play in multiple positions e.g. Iheanacho. Nevertheless, wha...

Re: Peseiro names 25 man 2023 AFCON squad

The coach is clueless but it’s also possible he didn’t have a freehand in the selection. But saying that, almost all our previous coaches have overloaded the defence and attack, leaving the midfield bare. I suspect we don’t produce enough good central and creative midfielders. Lolly Have you not fi...

Re: Peseiro names 25 man 2023 AFCON squad

Why does a so called attacking team need 9 defenders and only four midfielders??? And not one of the midfielders is a creative or attacking midfielder. So I ask how will this team score goals? Who will provide the service to the attackers? The coach is clueless but it’s also possible he didn’t have...

Re: THE PROBLEM WITH OUR SE

The SE is a team of individuals, no understanding, organisation or leader. This basically. So this is the job of the coach right? I think we had one shot on target, which was the goal from a defender. That says it all about our attack. They are not as clinical as we think, plus they do not really g...

Re: World cup qualifiers probable starting 11- without Osimhen

We need to use the 4-3-3. Yup. Pesseiro ain’t no fool. He’s not filling out a 424 in a WCQ hoping for a windfall of goals when he only needs to get 3 points and not risk a draw or loss.

Re: Nigeria 3 Mozambique 2 Live

I think Peserio learnt a lot over these two games. He has a set-up that allows his team to dominate mid-leave sides like Saudi and Moz. the 4-4-2 that becomes a 4-3-3 or 4-1-3-2 depending on which wing we're attacking from is working really well, at least for these level of teams.

What scouting reports? Don't be fooled. It is part of the hype that Peseiro has apparently fallen for. It is not based on football. Granted we are desperate for an attacking AM.
