The reason she is being used as a right back now is because she has lost a step or two and does not fit into the midfield model Dennerby is building. Even when she was 'king' in the Nigerian midfield, she was a tad slow on the ball. She is currently behind the ladies there now - they move the ball much quicker and Dennerby seems to have more confidence in their abilities. Unfortunately for Evelyn, she is certainly NOT the best we currently have in either the midfield or backline positions. That's the honest truth!

And by the way, I would take that France game with an extremely LIGHT grain of salt, if I were you. That team will bear NO semblance to what Dennerby will be lining up at the WWC proper.

Falcons survival at WWC only rests in taking the best players and then fixing them in the best positions to outwit or counteract the opposition; anything else they will be toast. Re-watch the France game and see why.

There's no second-leg, as this is the tournament proper...
Niger is eliminated (following 2 losses) but will complete the formality of Tuesday's final group game.

South Africa is currently playing the USA. The NFF failing the falcons. I like watching the Japanese play. They are my adopted team.
Winners do it the right way.

How are the NFF failing the Falcons? Haven't you been paying attention to the diet of friendlies that we've played this year? Or are we not supposed to play WAFU again?
