Re: Awaziem Error: SE vs Mali friendly.
The error was caused by Nwabali's decision to pass the ball from the back, especially seing the pressure Mali put on the defence on the first attempt that caused us to give up possession also. Once you put your defenders under such pressure, you can expect errors to occur. It doesn't matter who he ...

Re: Awaziem Error: SE vs Mali friendly.
Would encourage everyone to chill. I’m not a particularly big fan of Awaziem here but…. In my opinion, there are 2 kinds of errors in football. The first based on a lack of concentration or seriousness and the second based on a lack of ability/intelligence. Both can be forgiven, but the first one is...

Re: Lookman Nigeria Most Complete Attacker
Lookman is too short to be a successful center forward. He ain’t no Romario…better for him to come in from the left/right like he does. As the center man, it won’t work

Re: Finidi not willing to work with Amokachi, Amuneke
Honestly speaking, I wouldn’t work with them either. Definitely not those two.
However, the NFF has always chosen some assistants for its coaches. Wouldn’t expect this time to be much different

Re: STRATEGIC CHOICES FOR EAGLES under Finidi George
Formation absolutely matters. ESPECIALLY when you put the wrong players in positions they are not suited to play. Which is exactly what we have been doing in our failed 442 experiments. For 2 central midfielders to work, you need 2 workhorses who will run tirelessly and out in a defensive shift. Bo...

Re: Wilfred Ndidi
He started as a defender and moved to defensive midfield so we never really saw his attacking capabilities. The new manager at Leicester has unlocked his attacking capabilities. Now he’s back in the Premiership, I can’t wait to see him in his new role. That’ll be the real measure of his ability. No...
