ABEG MAKE UNA FORGIVE ME OOOOO

[deanotito]

I have spent months bashing Aribo, and abeg I REPENT.

I strain to think of a more COMMANDING midfield performance in an Eagles jersey from anybody. I mean, WHAT A GAME!


I have also spent a minute bashing Moses Simon, and while I am not ready to repent yet, he had a good game. I just have to say it.

But ARIBO, SANUSI, NDIDI, OMERUO (hope the injury isn,t serious), EKONG, AINA all had MONSTER GAMES. MONSTER!!!

The thing is you can never underestimate the psychology of playing for your country in a major tournament. Players can step up to another level.

Aribo can be a world class player....he will be the player of the season in Scotland and will move south...

he needs to play further up the tree.

I do hope that Egu tinkers for the second game...and lets make a statement again Sudan.

My goodness. The boy BALLED OUT. I don't ever being so wrong on a player ever. Wow

[Enyi]

Aribo needs to be unshackled and played further up... the problem is Iheanacho scoring but do we really need an out an out striker? lets play false 9 with Kelechi and let the wingers do the running.....

Well done SE! I am proud to be a Nigerian!

[maceo4]

The boy really had a great game, I'm turning into a believer!

bobo is a baller ... **** restricted them all.. we saw even captian Nigeria playing like Taribo and UChe

I was one of the few who defended him when people were calling him "ajebutter" saying that all these "foreign born" players were overrated.

Now what say you ?

The guy is a baller and I would like to see him play as an AM. He has never done so for SE. How would that fit in to Egu's 442 though ? Good thing is we have the players and the coach to have many different formations work out well.

Fair, but you also are a serial basher of Simon, if I’m mistaken. Several Egyptians have ice on their ankles today on account of him.
This is a seriously good team with lots of depth.
Watch out (and pray Ndidi doesn’t get injured as that’s the one place we have no sub)

My problem with Simon is his final product, and it wasn't really any better today. Only thing is he added intensity and served the Egyptians serious "Garri" but he needs to improve his end product or he will always be average.

You will not find any statement of mine that Simon should be dropped from the squad entirely. He is a good bench player. I just dont think he is good enough to start for us, especially when Lookman and Dennis are added to the fold.

He outshone Chukwueze today though.

Abeg, full mercy is in order.

Simon sabi play too. Make una no vex.

Na Rohr cause all this wahala lol

[maceo4]

Aribo nah baller o!

But some of us have consistently praised both Simon and Aribo. They have always looked good.

The same Simon that just said his Egypt game was his best game in 2 years? What is you talmbout? Both Aribo and Simon were shackled by the previous tactics and are now just coming out of that shell to show their qualities.

[donadoni]

Simon can improve but one goal and one assist ain’t bad for a days work. He got MOTM. Perhaps because he accelerates with such speed it’s hard for him to control the pace of his crosses. Knowing that we should have someone move to the far post when he crosses because most of the time that’s where the ball goes

Aribo was playing well under the previous coach (albeit he took a few games to adapt to African football). Moses Simon on the other hand was always hit or miss.

I think he was just ok and wasn’t getting forward enough to show his qualities in the final third, was very conservative for a while, I do think he’s broken out of his shell in this tourney.

Best game does not mean he was bad in the others. And he said 2 years. He started playing for the SE over 5 years ago. Simon got injured before the world cup when he was a shoe-in to be selected and it has taken him a bit longer to get back to his best.

And I have given Aribo MOM in some of the matches he has played under Rohr. Just admit, you are not a good scout of talent just like that loser called VE.

You are in no position to say "I told you so".

Its not about taking longer to get back to his best, he was played in the wrong position, why is that so hard for you to admit? The tactics and usage of players has changed and we are seeing better performances all around because of it, that you refuse to see or admit that is rather shocking…I mean it’s pretty clear because during that two years he was assist leader at his club and in the French league so he was able to be at his best for club then suddenly looks poor playing in an unfamiliar position for country and yet you continued to blame the players for tactical inefficiencies and your bias still won’t allow you to realize the obvious.
