Actually the strongest line-up I have seen under Keshi.
I'm quite exited to see Moses play as an attacking midfielder ..I hope he performs well there because we urgently need a solution to our AM problem.

The work rate of that line up will be tested. We shall see.
The difficulties of statistical thinking describes a puzzling limitation of our mind: our excessive confidence in what we believe we know, and our apparent inability to acknowledge the full extent of our ignorance and the uncertainty of the world we live in. We are prone to overestimate how much we understand about the world and to underestimate the role of chance in events -- Daniel Kahneman (2011), Winner of the Nobel Prize in Economics

Granted it is "sport" and anything can happen, but I don't see how Ethiopia is going draw this game, not to talk of winning it.

I fear for Onazi. He is going to do a $#% load of chasing today. The only way this line up works is as EII said...workrate

It is our best lineup.
It focuses Onazi and Mikel on the basics, asks Musa and Musa to support the defence and allows Ideye to drift into spaces and link up play.
Yes, the middle can feel light but Onazi and Mikel will more than make up for it by mixing possession play with long passes.
Good call.

Hope so, he hasn't done well in that position at club level...

a little too offensive for my liking - I guess the idea is to over power them and I guess attack is the best form of defense. So we are effectively playing a usa94 eagles 4-2-4 formation.

Hmm. We are still playing with 2MFs...no bona fide AM.
We will get away with it here, but this certainly won't fly in the WC.

The key area to watch is the defensive support provided by Musa & Ideye. Under Keshi, every player is expected to carry their load. It's 451 defensively and 424 attacking.

Midfield is weak with that lineup. Its needs a strongman like John Ogu to check those rampaging Ethiopian forwards.

I am surprised that with all the Nigerians playing globally, we cant find a proper right back.
