I love this one, but for me it is either Iheanacho or Ighalo, never both at the same time. Bring in Iwobi, the combination of Moses, Mikel and Iwobi would trouble any team!ohenhen1 wrote:Uzoho

Note that if I’d had my way, Ambrose would be at right back instead of Shehu
Cheers.
He is pretty fast o (faster than Ebuehi thats for sure), he got beat for pace once but it was because he reacted slowly and so had to foul the attacker, the rest of the time he matched them for pace and beat them to the ball. He's just not a natural RB though which is where Ebuehi has an advantage over him.highbury wrote:I realized after watching the games that Shehu isn't fast.

This lineup is missing an arrowhead striker. Musa does not hold the ball upfront and Nacho prefers playing off the main striker. I have this niggly feeling that Simy Nwankwo is going to crash into that first 11 in the coming weeks.TonyTheTigerKiller wrote:... based on the announced squad (4-4-2)

I don’t know about all that but Ambrose is by far the best of all our right sided defenders. He can break up attacks better than Shehu or anyone else and that’s why I’ve been advocating his inclusionhighbury wrote:I realized after watching the games that Shehu isn't fast.

Argentina ate us for lunch through his wing in 2014. His time has come and gone.TonyTheTigerKiller wrote:I don’t know about all that but Ambrose is by far the best of all our right sided defenders.

Completely disagree, he is definitely faster than the Ebuehi i've seen play for SE.mystic wrote:maceo4 wrote:He is pretty fast o (faster than Ebuehi thats for sure), he got beat for pace once but it was because he reacted slowly and so had to foul the attacker, the rest of the time he matched them for pace and beat them to the ball.

Shehu isn't faster than Ebuehi. Not even close!
Go watch the game and stop talking nonsense. Ambrose was the only one who even tried to react to Messi’s volley for the first goalMYMIND wrote:Argentina ate us for lunch through his wing in 2014.

Nevertheless Ebuehi seems to have better positional awareness which kinda makes the argument moot.mystic wrote:maceo4 wrote:He is pretty fast o (faster than Ebuehi thats for sure), he got beat for pace once but it was because he reacted slowly and so had to foul the attacker, the rest of the time he matched them for pace and beat them to the ball.

I agree there, Ebuehi is the more natural RB with better positional awareness. I wouldn't mind either one getting the nod.theYemster wrote:Nevertheless Ebuehi seems to have better positional awareness which kinda makes the argument moot.mystic wrote:maceo4 wrote:He is pretty fast o (faster than Ebuehi thats for sure), he got beat for pace once but it was because he reacted slowly and so had to foul the attacker, the rest of the time he matched them for pace and beat them to the ball.

+1. Whilst I love Onazi's hustle, if I go by what we witnessed in the last firendly, which was more of a guy struggling for fitness, I will start Ogu in midfield. Let me say here for the sake of disclosure, I am a strong believer in Ogu. I really rate this player and I hope he will get playing time and shine. This is his last chance on the big stage.oloye wrote:I love this one, but for me it is either Iheanacho or Ighalo, never both at the same time.

Onazi that was thanking Rohr for sending a fitness coach to work with him (See here) should be much fitter than what we saw there. If not, he better be far away from the starting lineup.Shownoja wrote:+1.
