Add Onyeka who has been clueless to the list, and Osimhen who is clearly not a hundred percent.
Lazy analysts quickly pouncing on the coach, as if he can walk on the field and play for these players
I won't say Onyeka has been clueless. He has only had to cover more grounds because of lack of support from Lukeman/Simon/Osayi. And this is why we miss Saidou. With him in the team Aina will be playing RWB. Both Aina and Saidou recover quickly without the ball. Something Osayi is not doing which makes Onyeka doing more work than necessary to cover ground thus being tactically dragged all over the place.
Or maybe he isnt getting enough help from Iwobi?

Yusuf, Kelechi and Chukwueze might be the X factors we need to score and see out this game.

COMON ALEX!!!!!!!
Form is temporary; Class is Permanent!
Liverpool, European Champions 2005.

We watched this very boring video, 500 times, of Sacchi doing defensive drills, using sticks and without the ball, with Maldini, Baresi and Albertini. We used to think before then that if the other players are better, you have to lose. After that we learned anything is possible – you can beat better teams by using tactics." Jurgen Klopp

Tough chance he mistimed his jump.
At least Vic is getting more info the game.
Eagles gotta protect the ball.

Nigerian formation is out of wack! Why did we abandon the back line formation that had won us these victories? Osayi should be taken out, please.
