Re: Name your SA/Benin squad

So Owngoal is saying that a homebased winger will replace Chukwueze if he doesn't recover from injury. And this is how we will fail to qualify. Nonsense like this. We have Tella, Ejuke, Lookman, Olawoyin, Fisayo Bashiru, Dennis, Why on earth would we need some unknown homebased player for this posi...

Re: Name your SA/Benin squad

Moffi's in/out status from the team is puzzling. I would actually have him as "third cab on rank" behind the two Victor's. Plus he is left footed and has a different playing style to the other contending strikers (eg. faster than Kele and Onuachu, better finisher than Dessers). I don’t kn...

^^ From coaching u-15 team to assistant coach of a national team? Only in Nigeria. I doubt we will be at the WC. A shame because it is happening where I live. And to make matters worse, he was "calling" SE, green eagles, more than 30 years after that name was changed. That tells me how or...

Re: Nwakali in hot water for being on phone on subs’ bench

This definitely doesn’t look good. Look at his demeanor compared to the guy sitting next to him.
Some of us have lost our reputation defending this guy for a decade, this will not help him get to the level he needs to be playing at.

Re: “There was chaos” – Amokachi advised to support Finidi, avoid a repeat of Amunike-Eguavoen disaster

This is just the beginning. Look for federal character to be introduced to selecting SE coach like we do with politics. The North will soon claim its their turn to coach SE after Finidi. It'll lead to regional rotation of coaches .

Pay as you go for assistant coaches

Could there be a potential conflict of interest in the future if the coaches do not have a contract? I don’t like this at all. Is this how other countries pay their assistant coaches?

It looks too good to be but I’m hoping it is though I have no evidence. If this isn’t true I’ll release Ifa on the character that posted it.

Re: Why Boniface is critical v RSA

If we stick with any variation of the 2 striker system, Lookman is actually the perfect foil for Victor. If finidi sticks w his 3-5-2, Lookman's versatility can see him creating combinations all over the pitch w Iwobi being his main partner and Osi at the end of the moves. Boniface is recovering fr...

Re: Why Boniface is critical v RSA

Even NIgeria used Ideye Brown and Emenike in 2013 successfully. It can work. You need mobile strikers that like to run and like to create chances. Both Osimhen and Boniface are good at that. Boniface is not a high work rate striker, he’s no Ideye Brown, not even close. Amokachi and Ideye could play...
