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...

Re: EPL Championship Playoffs: Ajayi and Aribo
Chalk and Cheese! The discussion is about players playing at a decent level and not Afghanistan or Yum Yum and shouldn’t fit anyone’s narrative! There are standards for inviting players to the national team and it does matter where they play. Anyone who says otherwise is just being mischievous I gu...

Re: Why Boniface is critical v RSA
Is there any other team in the world playing 2 no 9s successfully anywhere in the world ? Emir, Look around, there are a few teams that use it.

Re: Crystal Palace interested in Raphael Onyedika and Wilfred Ndidi
^^^ Young, hungry, coaches with quality footballing philosophy plenty (we see the examples of De Zerbi, Alonso, Motta, Glasner) instead of NFF to do proper recruiting to find similar options, they settled for Finidi. May God help us! Can you tell us what the ones you listed have achieved comparativ...

Nigeria starting 11 will probably be. Nwabili Aina, Ekong, Ajayi, Bassey Onyeka, Ndidi, Iwobi Boniface, Osimhen, Lookman Onyedika replaces Onyeka(if he is not fit) Team chemisrtry should't be a problem. Hopefully they don't eat a lot during their brief break. It should be 100 percent effort. None o...

Re: Here we go again: Open camp of SE to local talent-Finidi's first move
The team is already there for Finidi. He has been with them for 2 years. There is no need to deviate very much from Peseiros team. He just needs to plug a hole or two. If he wants to be successful he will stick with mostly the same team. I can garan-damn - tee there'll be local players on that list.
