Re: Osimhen out of WCQ

[ That is the real problem. It seems to me that most members of the forum still do not understand or pretend not to understand what a national team is and how a national team should operate. The national team is not a place where talents are developed or discovered. That is the job of club sides. T...

Re: Osimhen out of WCQ

1. Does our team need rebuilding? In what positions do we need to improve? Yes, we need to keep improving. We have aging players. We need help at fullback, Central Defense, Midfield, and attack (we have been nothing without Osimhen). We need to rebuild the team because despite playing in the finals...

What’s the point in having a qualifying tournament of 12 teams, TEN of whom will qualify for the WC? :woot:

Re: TEAM LIST OUT FOR WORLD CUP QUALIFIERS.

I’m surprised no one has mentioned Kingsley Ehizibue given all the injuries in defence. He has been very solid both as a central defender and as a right wing back in Serie A, especially since Cannavaro took over Udinese (who should know a thing or two about defending). He was also switched to LwB a...

Excellent.
They were never as bad as was being portrayed.
We can’t win everything all the time.
Besides, they say good teams win even when playing badly. But to be fair, they didn’t play badly and the second half was actually quite impressive.

Congrats boys!

Re: Osimhen out of WCQ

Osimhen seems to be one of the most injury-prone players we’ve had in a very long time.
I can’t really think of any other player that suffers on-off fitness like him.
Maybe Onyekachi Apam and Chinedu Obasi.

Re: Thank you Eguavoen for Capping Lookman and Bassey

Wasn't it Rohr that got them to commit to Nigeria? Some here were against these players, today we are all singing and spamming CE with Lookman. Also i am shocked at some CE folks. Many here hardly watch the Seria A. It shows why they are surprised at Lookman's performances. Once in a while make una...

Re: Lookman Nigeria Most Complete Attacker

Lookman is proof that we should get all our ballers wherever they reside to play for us. I don’t care if they’re foreign born or not. This does not mean we should stop developing home grown talent or giving opportunities to good local Players, but enough with the false narrative that we should stop...

Re: Lookman Nigeria Most Complete Attacker

Having watched Lookman a lot for a while. IMHO, he seems to be Nigeria's currently most complete attacking/forward player in terms of skill set. He has good crosses and seems to be the best crosser of the ball in Super Eagles, his finishing seems even more clinical than Osimehn at the moment. The l...
