10 observations I would like to make from this game
Posted: Sun Jan 14, 2024 5:39 pm
[1] First of all, I liked the 4-3-3 formation. At least the team had balance
[2] Our line-up was however whack. For starters, Ekong and Ajayi lack the pace to be a cohesive central defensive partnership. I would have gone with Awaziem and Bassey
[3] Our fullbacks did not provide enough width and crosses. Personally, I would have gone for Osayi-Samuel and Onyemaechi
[4] Frank Onyeka was at fault for the goal we conceded. Is he up to the role of anchorman?
[5] We are desperately lacking a playmaker. Were I in Peseiro’s shoes, I would move heaven an earth to get Michael Olise
[6] Victor Osimhen let the side down today with his misses
[7] Nwaubali provided confidence in goal. I think the goalkeeping matter is now resolved
[8] Had Simon Moses had a good game, we would probably have scored three or four today
[9] I think Alhassan Yusuf has the potential to be an ideal box-to-box midfielder
[10] Even if we win this tournament, Jose Peseiro has to go. He lacks the tactical nouse to take us to the Promised Land!
