Awaziem might be nervous, one too many unnecessary clearance errors
Evans Bipi, had declared to the press, “Why must [Governor Amaechi] be insulting my mother, my Jesus Christ on earth?”

We need to speed things up in the middle of the park, but slow the final ball (in the sense, that some of our players don't think before they play that ball).
Buhari, whose two terms thankfully ground to a constitutional halt in May. (One thing both democracies have going for them is that their leaders, however bad, have only two terms to swing the wrecking ball.) Under Buhari, growth per head also plunged to 0. An economic agenda drawn from the dusty pages of a 1970s protectionist handbook failed to do the trick. Despite Buhari’s promise to tame terrorism and criminality, violence flourished. Despite his reputation for probity, corruption swirled. FT

bone headed decision. A player is isolated in the middle of the park, they try to thread the ball through a crowd of South Africans closer to goal!

Good by SA....seems like counter-pressing is part of their gameplan.

It's a collection of fairly good players who're struggling to take the game by the scruff of the neck. I suspect this unit would be better suited to play a counter attacking game.

The control needed for a possession game just isn't there right now. Too slow, too telegraphed.
