Re: Nigerian striker Ibrahim Hafiz Umar to Chelsea

Very poor decision IMO.. even while understanding the financial considerations that might have led to this. There is no pathway for him to develop at Chelsea. I unfortunately agree with you. The pathway to developmental success should not be in a club like Chelsea. Smaller clubs would actually have...

Re: Bassey returns to Fulham after injury

It would have been if he started him with the other two guys fit and available. He is forgiven, though I am still not in support of the decision to invite him.

Re: AIRPEACE CEO Allen Onyema Threatens NFF Over Hiring of an FC.....

I'm all for local coaches but on what basis would he sue the NFF if they don't hire local managers. There will always be foreign managers that might be good for the SE so ruling them out totally is unnecessary. All I want is for local managers to get more opportunities and be given equal treatment ...

Re: Finidi's 532

Or was it? He had more defensive players on the pitch and absolutely freed up Iwobi. The MF was super solid today. I don't know it it's Ndidi's return or the formation but jeez, it worked well. Very well. I expect the attack to get better when Aina returns to play RB. Also, it seems like finidi doe...

Tanimu played as a RB with Osayi in front of him and when he was replaced, Osayi went to RB not CD In a 3-5-2?

Re: Nigeria vs Ghana (2-1) Desser , Lookman FT

Why was Peseiro not playing Onyedika? Because from the little I have watched him, he appears lackadaisical. Anyway, it doesn't excuse Peseiro flogging the players with too many minutes. To be honest, Peseiro, Rohr and even Keshi all played their starters way too many minutes. We really have got to ...

Ndidi with a beautiful tackle and clean up there! Not to be unduly critical as it is expected, but you could see Tanimu's inexperience there... Yeah, he turned his back on the ball and man and the pass was released. But he has acquitted himself well both in defending and in being in position to rec...

There's a balance Ndidi brings to bear.

We have two midfielders behind Iwobi who gives him the liberty to play like he wants to.

We have seen more of the ball and retained the ball more than we have in recent memory.
