3 Takeaways from Nigeria Vs Libya on players

Post by chief nfachairman »

1.JAmilu collins has sent Idowu to the stands. Idowu was not listed for this match. Aina (who can play both left and right back like Idowu) got a nod over him. So our top3 full back options are now Shehu, Jamilu and Aina. When Ebuehi is fit, the competition would become sweeter.

2.Isaac success is now first off the bench and not kelechi. We should expect to see Isaac relegate Ighalo to the first off the bench option in the not to distant future. with Kayode Back to form at Shanktar (he needs to start scoring), Ujah scoring in Bundesliga, and the other youngsters, battle for top2 striking positions would become interesting in the not too distant future.

3.Simon Moses was also not listed. Seems like Musa, Kalu and Onyekuru have shut him out. Isaac Success can also play as a winger. And if V.Moses returns?

Once we meet much tougher opposition Ighalo will revert to being on the bench or out the squad because he is nothing but a wastepipe player

1) Shehu is dodgy. When he has the ball at his feet, he treats it with the tension of a man kicking a live grenade along the ground.

2) You want Success (who has splints in his a** from sitting on Watford's bench for the last 2-3 years) to replace a guy who just scored a hat-trick and who averages nearly a goal a game for his club side?

Good grief.

Idowu is a ball boy, everybody knows that. I'm glad we found a left footed LB.

I agree with you totally. Jamiu is a real find. Idowu may be on his way out once Ebuhi gets back and gets a little older.

Your boy Kalu is a brilliant player..Much better than the 2 Moses at this point in my opinion... If victor were to come back..simon is done for..
Now that he has scored, he needs to play more as a team player. :mrgreen:

I am sorry all these names are still way way behind in terms of quality. But it is good to be able to reel off these names coupled with the fact that they are very young.

Shehu is not good enough to play in SE, don't know what Rohr is smoking or what he sees in shehu. Moses Simon should be allowed to focus on his club career. Moses Simon is pure thrash compared to Kalu and onyekuru. Musa needs to find a way to play as a striker for SE or retire. Musa offers nothing in the wings, iwobi set him up for the assist but the assist could have been easily intercepted by a Berra defender. Kele can come in as a sub if iwobi gets tired in a game. Kele can also play with iwobi, and Kalu if we are playing three at the top.

Rb should be. Aina and Ebuehi
Lb should be Collins and Idowu

Players like shehu, etebo, Moses Simon should be dropped
Musa plays as a striker or retire

We have too much talent to be wasting time with junks and low IQ players.

Watched the full game and Shehu didn't put a foot wrong, he is better defensively than Aina which is probably what conservative Rohr likes. I don't like Shehu there because he doesn't offer enough going forward, but he's not nearly as bad as y'all are trying to paint him. Hopefully Aina and Ebuehi will be the long term solutions at that position, and we need a second left footed LB to challenge Collins. I'm wondering why you keep listing Idowu who is a brick layer but you have a problem with Shehu a proper footballer playing out of position.

Quality is improving Slowly. While Jamilu is the German2, Success, Kalu and Onyekuru are all playing in big leagues or big teams with Kalu and Onyekuru been starters. 80% of the players that played in the first game are in Big leagues or Major clubs but the ish is that some of them are burning a huge hole on the bench.

Both FB made mistakes in the match. Aina was ball watching on the 2nd goal for Libya. He was also caught out of position on several occasions. Collins was also caught out of position.

Uzoho didn't look confident. Showed his age.

Ekong and Balogun played well.

Etebo played his worst game for Nigeria.

Ndidi was okay.

Iwobi was okay.

Ogu was okay

Ighalo played his best game for Nigeria

Musa delivered on a good cross. But also wasted several crosses. Good effort to score the 2nd goal. He was okay. Mixed performance.

Kalu was poor, need to work on passing the ball to the other players. We missed V Moses.

Onyekuru was okay.

So 3 new players in the team:
1. Kalu: regular in Bordeax
2. Jamilu: Playing D2 football in Germany but is good enough to send Idowu to the stands. This is one of those players we call exceptions. I would love to see him in Bundesliga or top league soon.

and 2 first of the bench off the bench
1. Success: Watford first of the bench. He needs to become a starter in that club tho. Seems like his relegated Kelechi to a deeper bench role or kelechi is backup to Iwobi
2. Onyekuru: Gala starter in League and Champions League. Relegated Simon to the Stands

Our team is getting better. The minute we get a striker to replace Ighalo (means that striker is the real deal), then we are complete.

Not sure what your Kalu comment even means, he’s one of our best players that keeps possession and rarely gives the ball away. But didn’t have his best game attacking wise. But that said if he’s poor how can Onyekuru be ok? He played worse...

Onyekuru was on the field for like a minute. Yeah he didn't impress but truthfully there wasn't enough time to fully assess him.
