Re: Video interview: Peseiro - Why the Eagles played defensively

i like so many things i hear from this coach. I will keep him. He understands the human elements of team sports. Something lots of fans underestimate. he's shown enough adjusting tactics to the war. he hasn't shown he can do adjust in the moment.

Re: Can Anyone Guess Where CIV did their pre-tournament Camp?

Can anyone guess? Where did CIV camp and acclimatize? Where they did their camp had nothing to do with them winning the cup. They won the cup because they changed their coach and used a coach who played the players where they were supposed to play and be effective playing there. They rotated their ...

Re: Nigeria was found out

what so with 2 hardoworkers in the middle in Onyeka and Iwobi, we still got overran. And your solution is to put Aina/iheanocho and Onyea in the middle. 2 of which are NOT midfielders.

Not good enough. yet we are in the final. Thank God you are not coach. In tourney games, not conceding goals is ...

Re: A MAJOR PROBLEM WITH OSIMEHN

His positioning and runs ARE PISS POOR. I've noted this before and it is a major reason he doesn't score as much as he should, and a major reason he is being marked out of games in Serie A. Just look at the goal Lookman scored because he delayed his run and was in open space. I have never seen Osim...

Re: Duke Udi on Oliseh

I respect the man as a person, but he is still not meant to be a coach. He should have have looked for some technical position that is about doing things the right way. he lacks the people skills to be a coach.

Re: Views from Others - Ugandans praise Iwobi, mock Song

Ol boy on second watch Iwobi balled. The issue is that at crucial times he can lack a bit of composure so watching live that's what registers in your brain.You don't see the little things he does that are crucial to make the team tick. Case in point Lookman found him in the 18 with a nice pass and ...

If Peseiro likes his job, he will find some role for him. Nigeria is bereft of players with intelligence. Iheanacho is one of the few intelligent players we have. Peseiro doesn't exactly have a choice. Even Conte that hated Mikel...still became a pragmatist when he was desperate. Beef or no beef, i...

Some people don't really understand football. The tactic we played today intentionally bypassed the middle. controlling the middle was essentially the plan.

Re: Peseiro v Iheanacho?.......Is there credence?

The only way I see Nacho getting game time tommorrow is pulling Iwobi on the right flank like he did for Everton. Benching the less precise Samu and Moses. And then plugging Nacho to the middle. Nacho has IQ and can pass but...while he is not lazy he doesn't have a track record of "workhorse&q...
