Re: Preferred Line up Against Mali
These are not typical friendlies. We have a crucial (almost must win) World cup qualifier in June. These particular friendlies are the only matches the main team will play before the qualifier. It makes no sense to waste it on checking out players that has already been seen many times.

You have a point about Finidi not messing his record given that he is auditioning for a job.
However, we must begin to see these friendlies for what they are -- they are not competitive games. If SE must always play starters, then that begins to support the idea of not inviting all 23 or 25 players from FB players if just a few of them shall be played. I would then go with idea of inviting just 15 from FB and make up the rest with HB players or players from age-grade teams preparing for competition. That will be as better use of these camps.

Re: Preferred Line up Against Mali
Pretty much everybody in the SE setup is a potential starter . The competition is that intense and the margins between players are really slim .Enugu II wrote: ↑Tue Mar 26, 2024 1:57 pmGoalgetter,Goalgetter wrote: ↑Tue Mar 26, 2024 1:19 pmNot sure Finidi would like to mess up his record with that decision..lol.

Finidi might as well use the friendlies to assess tactical formations and the like as opposed to determining personnel

Re: Preferred Line up Against Mali
I won't play Uzoho. I will start with a Nwabali even if I reshuffle my backline. He is good at organizing his backline and can play the ball out of the back.Enugu II wrote: ↑Tue Mar 26, 2024 1:57 pmGoalgetter,Goalgetter wrote: ↑Tue Mar 26, 2024 1:19 pmNot sure Finidi would like to mess up his record with that decision..lol.

I will like to see Sadiq play. Like to see Tella start. Will like to see Onyedika with the stabilizing presence of Ndidi.
I will like to see if Bruno was truly really poor or he just had a bad game against Ghana.
I will like to see if Awaziem has turned to "Anywhere Belle Face" defender.

Re: Preferred Line up Against Mali
The goal is to build depth in case of injuries. Why would you call your backup Gk to two friendlies and not play him. Then when Nwabili goes down with an injury. You don't know what you have in the 2nd choice. Uzoho should start. We need to know if he is good enough. Maybe they need to drop him and find some one else.
Winners do it the right way.

Re: Preferred Line up Against Mali
Some Nigerians are afraid of competition. That is why the likes of Dangote monopolize the domestic market. They refuse to use the ports in the SE. Everything has to be monopolized so that they can manipulate the public. We need an atmosphere of competition. So that if any player wan do shakara for us. We tell them F off.
