One wonders why some Nigerians tend to have a one-track mind. The issue at hand is the goalkeeping gaffe from a freekick by Akpeyi in a recent league match. I did not post the thread. I stumbled on the video via a sports journalist I follow on Twitter, and decided to post it for perspective. And you bring in Enyeama? I need to understand. Akpeyi vs Enyeama? Really?

Re: Men Akpeyi is really bad!!!
Look, my point is all keepers make such mistakes. Did anyone criticise enyeama when he let in those cheap goals against France,south Korea and Greece?

He's just good enough. A huge climb down from Enyeama, several levels below Ikeme, and actually no better than Ezenwa.

I do not rate him but sometimes I feel that his past is used to judge his performance in every game. That is just unacceptable, IMHO, if we are to be fair in evaluating performance. Go back and re-watch the Argentina game. The guy was not as bad as claimed here in CE beyond his mental error that led to the FK. Yet all you read on CE is that he was so poor in that game.

Re: Men Akpeyi is really bad!!!
That is the point. Yes, you can use the past and the pattern built up to judge his overall ability. But in one game you use his performance in that game to judge. That was the big error in several evaluations of his performance v Argentina.The YeyeMan wrote:My fren, generally you might be right. But his past is used to judge his ability.

Re: Men Akpeyi is really bad!!!
That I disagree. His bravely actually prevented Nigeria being further behind in that half when the team was virtually overrun for a while. I am not sure which one is a soft goal -- the cross that was connected deep inside the box or the FK that was taken from the edge of the box?

Re: Men Akpeyi is really bad!!!
Ok. IMHO, he invited the ball to be played in the open space (an attempt to suck the kicker into that) as we see Brazil's Taffarell do with pks. This way he (Akpeyi) prevents the ball from being played above the wall for a goal as we see often (see also Nigeria's FK) but then failed to get the spot quicker than the ball. IMHO, it is a gamble that failed and considering the distance for the FK I do not label that soft at all.The YeyeMan wrote:The free kick with the poorly-positioned wall that he stood behind and thus allowed the free-kick taker to pass the ball into the net with ease.

Re: Men Akpeyi is really bad!!!
But given the distance why would he need to gamble in the first place? If they play it over the wall he has wayyyy more than enough time to move his feet and get himself over there to make a save. The gamble tells me he is not confident in his own footwork and speed to get across to the ball if it is played over the wall...Enugu II wrote:Ok.

12 year old GKs know that you position the wall to cover most of the path to goal and you maintain sight of the ball (mostly possible) and cover the near side or narrower path to goal. That is why the good FK takers have to bend the ball over the wall. That was what Nacho did in that same game.
According to you, Akpeyi ignores this basic principle and tries to play voodoo and mind games with the FK taker. Well, its not working. Against Argentina, it didn't help that he conspired with himself to create the FK in the first place, but due to his FK methods (hiding behind the wall and peeping), all the Argie player had to do was pass the ball into the net. No special FK skills needed.

Re: Men Akpeyi is really bad!!!
The unfortunate thing is that you can’t coach these errors out of him at this stage of his career development. All goalkeepers make errors but this has to be the exception rather than the norm. Why bother with a defender who is guaranteed to give you 89 mins of brilliant play but always has a momentary lapse that will more than often lead to you conceding a goal?
The simple fact of the matter is that Akpeyi in his current form is not good enough. His confidence has taken a battering and mentally he isn’t strong enough to fight his way back. I’m sure the pressure got to him before the Cameroon game and his injury gave him a convenient way out. You just need to see his face every time the camera pans on him. He always looks petrified and uncertain. He lacks that aura and commanding presence most world class goalies have.
Rohr hasn’t sent his goalkeeping coach to Spain for the fun of it. IMHO We are simply flogging a dead horse here.

Re: Men Akpeyi is really bad!!!
Akpeyi is back on the bench at his SA club. There is no way this guy is better than an Enyeama with one hand.
Its nice when someone shoots ur murderer in the back, without asking to be paid.
