I dont like that formation. Who is going to help Olofinjana? Is CCC planning a 3 man midfield?

senator · Post by **senator** » Mon Jan 26, 2004 6:27 pm

Well I doubt thats what CCC will do maybe its just a decoy, but if its really what he will put out i better get doctor to stand by me while im watching the game

Post by **juventuss** » Mon Jan 26, 2004 6:28 pm

so its

---------------------------Enyaema--------------------
---abbey-------Yobo----------------Isaac----------------Cele

-----------------------Olofinjana----------------------------

-------Utaka-------------Okocha---------------Kanu

------------Aghahowa-------------------YAK

That is one weak midfield....

Chukwu is making progress. He's finally figured out, that you have to score goals to win a football match.

Post by **juventuss** » Mon Jan 26, 2004 6:29 pm

that midfield will get over run with long balls and 1-2 passes. ....

There is so much olofinjana can do...

senator · Post by **senator** » Mon Jan 26, 2004 6:32 pm

juventuss, Very weak inded man olofijana will have one heck of ajob to do. The mid is so lightweight, may God help us

One of Kanu or Utaka must at least sit....if Kanu plays then he must play another dirty work guy like Lawal or Ekong and Bench Utaka ..there is no way this will work except against Benin

Why should Kanu start?I watched the Brazil game and saw how slow Kanu and JJ reacts to the opposing team,they dont chase down the opposing players.Kai this is not so great.

Obong · Post by **Obong** » Mon Jan 26, 2004 6:36 pm

Even though Kickoff is close,I feel Garba Lawal will start.Kanu or Utaka will sit for Lawal to solidify the midfield and left wing,with either coming off the bench in the second half.Thus,the starting line-up probably will be -

Enyeama-Abbey,Yobo,Okoronkwo,Babayaro-Olofinjana,Lawal,Okocha,Utaka-Aghahowa,Aiyegbeni.

subs:Kanu,Ikedia,Ekong.

The formation is attack minded alright, i just fear for us when the Morrocans break cos apart from Seyi, the rest wont walk their socks off to track back

Post by **King Futcha** » Mon Jan 26, 2004 6:43 pm

Awww Man if I would have known this I would have predicted 5-0 Nigeria

Post by **juventuss** » Mon Jan 26, 2004 6:43 pm

i know Okocha will definitely help at the back but he has a long way to go moving the ball up front.

I would rather see

-----Abbey-----Yobo---------Isaac-----------Cele-----

-------------------Olofinjana-------------Lawal---------

----------Utaka---------------------Okocha--------

----------------Aghahowa--------------------------

-----------------------------------Yak------------------

With such an attack minded midfield

, we might be overrun by the morocoans, but if it brings us more goals, we'll still win

. CCC is not totally clueless.

KoC · Post by **KoC** » Mon Jan 26, 2004 7:05 pm

I got this line-up direct from CCC himself, and unless something VERY DRASTIC happens, that is the SE line-up for tomorrow, and you can take that to the bank.

senator · Post by **senator** » Mon Jan 26, 2004 7:21 pm

From this lineup I dont think CCC rates the moroccans highly. It may work though, i just hope they dont overrun us

Post by **Cellular** » Mon Jan 26, 2004 7:27 pm

If dat is di line up, our own don Kpoo be dat...

Kanu way be minus one unless im get ball for inside 18... are they planning to play JAG as a midfielder? Utaka doesn't like playing midfield...

Chei!

Say it aint so...

We don Kpoooo!

Ugbowo · Post by **Ugbowo** » Mon Jan 26, 2004 7:27 pm

Na Wah!!! We go score and dem go score.

I don change my prediction

5-2 Nigeria!!!!!

omey2k4 · Post by **omey2k4** » Mon Jan 26, 2004 7:28 pm

2 slow tortoise in midfield,only 1 natural left footed player,CCC is on crack.KOC abegtell that man he should retire from coaching!

The line up calls to mind the interview Da Bull, Amokachi made a while back, something to the effect of not to worry about the defence...if they score on us we'll score twice on them.
Might just work. Didn't somebody say the value of a good coach is playing to the strength of his players?
