Re: NIGERIA’s STRIKER DOMINANT PROBLEM NOTED (VIDEO)
People on this thread are deluded. You cannot win anything with the spine of our team Uzoho, Ajayi, Ndidi, Iwobi This area needs to be fortified. If you want to have a forward line of Lookman, Boniface, Osimhen, Chukwueze, they need to be able to track back. Team needs to defend and attack as a unit...

Re: NIGERIA’s STRIKER DOMINANT PROBLEM NOTED (VIDEO)
I agree that our high-profile players are our forwards. However, I think this problem is a little exaggerated and the failure of Rohr and Peseiro to try out new midfield options has somewhat compounded the issue. First, we have versatile forwards. Boniface can play on the left, Lookman can either p...

Re: Caf 2026 world cup (Nigeria, SA, Benin(****), Zimbabwe, Rwanda and Lesotho)
The toughest group is the group with the most number of matches where the difference in scoreline between the two teams is minimal. We can only know this after the matches have been played. A good prediction ahead of time could total the difference in FIFA rankings amongst teams and the group with ...

They should have fired him and install a local coach like they did to Rohr and see where that gets us.

Re: Nigeria 0 v South Korea 1 FT (Under 20 Q/Finals)
I didn't watch the game cause I was afraid we'd lose to a team we were better than mainly because we have struggled up front and playing against frees scoring Korean. The result and stats are not unexpected. This is a theory with Nigerian teams no cutting edge at the final third and set piece proble...

Re: [U-20 WC R16] Argentina 0 Nigeria 0
They are holding the Argies to a stalemate and the game plan is working alright,but I am afraid if they continue like this it may not be enough as Argentina will more than likely nick in a goal and game over.

Re: U16 Tournament - Nigeria (0) vs Netherlands (1) - In Japan
I saw an opportunity for the midfielder to make a through pass to the forward, which would have presented a one-on-one opportunity with the GK. Instead, he decided to test the keeper from 30 yards. Poor decisions

Re: Eletu - Is he ready?
The problem is the coaching and tactical setup we have in the SE. All these good midfielders in the FE will be made to look useless in SE. The coaches will have to come up with a radical plan to flood our midfield instead of using one or two; focus on two-way midfielders as opposed to stiff players ...

Midfielders hustled for sure. Final passes are still an issue. Overall solid performance against a good Italian side, which I am not sure played up to expectations today.
