Re: PESEIRO HEADED TO ZAMALEK AFTER AFCON - owngoal

That story has been around for months. Zamalek or not, I don’t think he stays unless he’s glutton for abuse and disrespect. Nigerians need a new coach to complain about anyway. Let Amunike get his chance. Not sure his fate in Nigeria would be any different anywhere else if he was leading an underpe...

I hope he stays. You guys have clearly forgotten what it feels like to be in a coaching hellscape.

I am converted. I am a Peseiro fan. Hope he retires in Nigeria

Re: What Manner of Defence is Peseiro Putting Up for Zaidu?

It's not easy to cover 8 miles per game and Zaidu does that very well. Have y'all noticed that when the S Eagles are attacking, he is always up there with the attackers? It takes an immense amount of stamina to do that. And obviously when you have more players in attack, it makes it harder for the ...

Re: Boniface fit in current system

Assuming Vic is starts every game. What role could Boniface play in the current 343? Would he be able to play either of the wing positions? Or, is that when we change to the 352? Interesting times ahead when all the strikers return. IMHO, Peseiro is only trying to use the 343 formation to first bui...

Re: REMEMBER WHEN THEY SAID BASSEY WAS STRUGGLING WITH AFRICAN FOOTBALL?

I don’t know about struggling with African football, but when he started playing for us, he was put in central defense, and he looked like a walking penalty kick. I will add that many said he was being played out of position, and that he was really a left back. Not sure I believed them then. But I d...

Re: Pesseiro triggers contract renewal

He definitely deserves a contract renewal. As abysmal as the pre-tournament record was, he’s shown me that he is up to the job. We should definitely keep him. Rohr tried to make the eagles more defensive, but the output was so boring and lackadaisical, you almost had to pay me to watch the team. Pes...

Re: William Troost-Ekong nearly retired, but now leads Nigeria's AFCON renaissance

I find it odd that players contemplate retirement just because they’ve lost their spot in the team. I remember when Ekong broke into the team, he displaced Omeruoh and when they formed that Oyinbo wall, Omeruoh - who had already won an ANC - and Awaziem continued to struggle to find playing time.

Re: Naming Nigeria's MVP so far.......

In my own opinion, the beauty of this tournament is that it’s the first since the Atlanta Olympics where each game presents more than 5 candidates for MVP. Top tier performances from a number of individuals.

I didn’t even know Semi Ajayi could defend like this…I can go on and on man

Stanley, is currently 50-50 for the game vs Angola, if not Uzoho will start. We just have to get behind him Stanley ain’t 50-50. Don’t believe the hype. He’s not playing. learn to research , https://twitter.com/PoojaMedia/status/1752399986204037439 This is not “research”. Nwabali is not playing

Re: Without Nwabili we may have to change how we play

Our quick attacking comes from his distribution which allows Osimhen to win the 50/50 balls while Lookman tries to get the 2nd ball. This would be gone with Uzoho and with a goalie that is suspect on long range shots i would consider starting Yusuf as an extra body in midfield and play Alex as AM m...
