You know that you are the only person in the world who makes a substitution 3 weeks before a game! Some years ago, you actually used to write in the specific time the substitution should take place. Kaiii!!!!ohenhen1 wrote:vs Algeria

Re: OFFICIAL LIST OF SE INVITES FROM NFF WEBSITE
Please remove Uche Agbo from the lineup. He is just warming the seat for Kevin Akpoguma, who should make the WC squad, so no need to give him any playing time.
Uzoho will not start against Algeria. Too crucial a match to start a newbie.
Also, Nwakaeme needs to be given a run out as a sub for Ighalo. Iheanacho can come in as a sub later in the game.

Re: OFFICIAL LIST OF SE INVITES FROM NFF WEBSITE
My understanding is that talks are at a very advanced stage.
No need testing someone you're gonna drop, who is basically warming the seat for someone else.
That will amount to a waste of opportunity for the likes of Awaziem and Troost Ekong who need to get more reps before the WC.

Musa will likely get some game time. Might be his last chance to prove his value since he's not seeing any club action.

Brian Idowu is a versatile player who needs to be looked out, not sure why Uche Agbo is taking up space.

When Nwakaeme drifts in and/or play centrally for Bar Sheba, he has been less effective than out wide.

Re: OFFICIAL LIST OF SE INVITES FROM NFF WEBSITE
The competition for Nwakaeme on the flanks is very tight: Victor Moses, Alex Iwobi, Simon Moses and now Henry Onyekuru. He has played second fiddle to the first 3 listed all through the qualification campaign.
Cannot wager that he will win a straight shoot out btw him and Onyekuru - so that kinda puts him in a pickle.
I believe his best shot is as a CF.
