I wonder how many times Musa and Iheanacho have touched the ball. These two are probably done with SE

Re: Our Osimhen joins on Galatasaray loan
It is better than nothing and probably better for his integrity than going to Saudi Arabia at such a young age. But our boys wings have been clipped; this is a forced humbling of an African boy. He really needs to reflect and find a way to come back stronger, with the aim of completely destroying th...

Re: Give Lookman the Jersey No. 10
No leave him alone.No change needed. I think he has the character to carry it. He already believes in himself so shouldn’t affect him. He plays like an English 10 like Wayne Rooney. Or would you prefer we wait for another Jay Jay. Let’s wake up o, we are neutralising teams with 3 at the back and 2 ...

Give Lookman the Jersey No. 10
It is probably time we let go of the traditional playmaker 10 and embrace the modern 10 that we have. I move the motion to ordain Asemola Lookman as the next Nigeria number 10.
What say you?

Re: Nigeria vs Cameroon (2-0) Lookman x2 Hangs, Our Osimhen, Bassey assists) FT
Let’s no be too tough on Iwobi. He plays as CM in this team tidying things up. He obviously has limitations and confidence issues which I have come to accept, but he is the best in that position in the team.

Re: Oliseh's Ridiculous Rule - Disappointed with the iffy st
I first called for this exact minimum standard requirement to be introduced a long time ago. So I don't see it as a reaction to Keshi's penchant for puzzling call ups to the senior team. There really should be no hard and fast rule on where a player should be playing before being inviting to the SE...

Re: 1 goal conceded in 3 games
Three at the back. That is the only tactic that has yielded any benefit since Peseiro joined. I am sure he thought we would always outscore our opposition but the toothless strike force have made him rethink. Since we have wingbacks that are constantly showing up in attack, is there any need for win...

Re: Guinea Bissau vs Nigeria 11am CT/6pm Nigerian time
Based on this line up and Lookman & Iwobi’s absence, I can only assume that the coach is trying to build confidence in the team’s squad depth to execute this formation, especially as we will need all hands on deck for the knockout games. Keyword is assume, cos only one good game won’t make me ch...

Re: Friendly: Nigeria 0-2 Guinea FT
We have a heavily unbalanced team because of the squad selection made by JOKE PESIERO and this was a consequence of his preferred formation. Even if we had both Adepoju and Oliseh as CM/DMs in this flat 4:2:4 / 4:4:2 formation with both wingers hugging the bylines, it will be same result. We are bou...

Re: Pick Your Top 8 Midfieders for AFCON Squad.....
I don't think we should be going to that AFCON without Alhasan Yusuf. Sometimes I wish we didn’t have this many forwards and just keep things simple. It seems like the coaches are having a hard time dropping some of these strikers/forward players for central midfielders. You aren’t far from the tru...
