d#$% Etuhu actually did his job very well

[Ayo Akinfe]

[1] I actually think d#$% Etuhu did what was asked of him well
[2] He was in the team to act as a destroyer
[3] He won a lot of tackles
[4] He threw himself about a lot
[5] Which other Nigerian player can win as many balls as him
[6] He also managed to get forward a bit
[7] Looking at the likes of Van Bommel, Toulaloun, Mascerano and Lampard, did they do any better than Etuhu?
[8] Lagerback got it wrong with the other midfield players
[9] If I was Nigeria's manager, we would have won that match
[10] Take it or leave it but this is our best line-up:

[goke313]

after yabbing Enyeama...you still have the nerve to create new threads

Ayo plz SITDAFOCKDOWN

[yaya]

cheiii! that gif!! what 70s show was that man on again?

When we used to watch the dudes show as a kid, we give am nickname - Okpabi!

[Mudi E]

Odiah and Etuhu were Nigeria's worst players...followed by Kaita.

[kash n' karry]

Ayo ur analysis is a classic case of Kuku-ness being revisited again AND really shows that u have started suffering from chronic phases of 3rd degree amnesia and senility. This is really why we don't want ur analysis on our soccer any longer

[omey2k4]

Odiah and Etuhu were Nigeria's worst players...followed by Kaita.

Disagree,Mudi watch football properly

[deanotito]

First of all, how do you know what "his job" was? And unless it was of the "win the ball and then give it away" type job description, he didnt do his job well.

[olu]

Etuhu's problem was he kept giving away the ball, which put more pressure on the defense. If he can't stop giving away the ball, I'll suggest Ayinla starts in his place.

[1] You have to win the ball in the first place to give it away
[2] Ayila may be better at distributing but will he win as many balls as Etuhu?
[3] Without a ball winner, we would have conceded about six against Argentina
[4] Etuhu just has to work on his distribution
[5] He also needs to fasten his speed of thought
[6] At this level, you have to do everything in a hurry, so accurate passes need to be made quickly
[7] Anthony Annan showed how it should be done
[8] Our problem is that none of our other players are natural ball winners bar maybe Kaita
[9] Imagine what would happen on the counter attack with no ball winner
[10] On the whole, I believe Etuhu did OK

The three of una have WOWO in common....make all of una plus ya oyibo coach go murder.

[Robbynice]

Ayo if you want people to take you serious, you really need to stop yarning opaks. Etuhu that was the worst player on the field that day na hin you talk say do hin job well so? Ol'boy e be like say your head no dey house...

[Dog Bruno]

Remember the pressure they put on Amodu for not including Etuhu initially?

[CMS]

I'm sorry Ayo. But Etuhu's play was un-inspirational to say the least. He was primarily responsible for Messi, while Haruna tracked Tevez. We all know how it went.

Ask yourself how many goals we would have conceded were it not for Etuhu. Did you see what Germany did to Australia?

How many goals did he directly prevent Ayo? Or is this somehow an attempt to diminish Enyeama's contribution?

Ayo is either u get mental issue or u dey on a cheap drug ! Ehutu wan be the reason wa messi had a field day abeg men if u no sabi wetin to talk , go get a pet and stop seekin for all these cheap attention .

[Obong]

Ayo,after the Enyeama debacle,now this?It is only appropriate to ask,"my friend,have you taken your medication today?".

[Chief Gabtigab]

I'm amazed that we're still taking Ayo seriously.

He is saying he would have started Enyeama when all his lineups before the match were without Enyeama. Monday morning quarterbacking.

Take Ayo seriously at your own risk.

[smartbrother]

Nothing wrong with etuhu but we will get nowhere with him starting for us. Etuhu simply does not have the natural skills to effortlessly retain possession as every Nigerian midfielder should. You cannot build anything on a DM who isnt assured in his possession. A well-drilled Kaita-Ayila-Lukman combination would have dominated the midfield against Argentina and as a collective, would have crafted enough opportunities for the strikers. Lagerback needs to let go of this particular safety blanket and put more faith in the Nigerian brand of football. I am confident a Yobo&Etuhu-free SE will make it out of this group

[Orion]

If Etuhu was playing Obi's role in DM then I would have preferred Obi. Etuhu is average at best and only a starter for the SE due to our severe dearth of talent.
