We should learn to assess our players honestly

[1naija]

1. Awonyi was a waste of space
2. Akpeyi is the best Nigerian goalkeeper, followed by Uzoho.
3. Sadiq belongs in the SE. Call him clumsy or whatever.
4. I am not sure what value Olayinka adds to the team.

We must stop rattling off names of every player that occasionally scored a goal for his club.

Our first choice attackers should be Osimhen and Ighalo. The others are not ready

Lets leave it at Osimhen, Ighalo is retired and not really committed. The rest including Sadiq are not up to it...The Olayinka they are abusing is the one that set up Moses with that beautiful cross that left the Tunisian defense for dead and Moses one on one with the keeper somehow fluffed it. Sadiq on the other hand fluffed a chance...

What an ironic post

We should learn to access our players honestly, then proceeds to bash players needlessly.

Not only Ighalo. Victor Moses should be recalled

Awoniyi is overhyped

Sadiq frankly looks a much more effective striker while Awoniyi just "works hard"

Olayinka was always just a waste

Okoye is a basket keeper. At this point I think I will prefer Akpeyi, and that is saying something.

Mikel too. And Osaze.

Who gave that cross to Simon that he fluffed a 1v1? Just wondering...I guess the waste did that...

1. Nonsense. he didn't get any service. We have no reliable attacking system.

2. Utter nonsense. I guess Neuer is a rubbish 'keeper because he has been beaten from distance many times



3. Agreed. sadiq would do MUCH better with decent service. See #1.

4. The jury is out on that one.

[airwolex]

The truth is, we played 3 good games, then a terrible one when it mattered most. Apart from Ndidi they played badly as a collective. How you can now start bashing them individually is beyond me.

I am on record on saying that I prefer Uzoho, but i won't bash Okoye for our loss. Saying Akpeyi is better just shows that you are not sincere.

[1naija]

Honest assessment and bashing are not the same thing. We should leave non value adding players off the team.

What an ironic post

We should learn to access our players honestly, then proceeds to bash players needlessly.

finger pointers, the guy was all over the field the best chances came from his creating.

Debatable. You have to take the quality of the opposition into account.

Honest assessment is that Awoniyi is a wastepipe and Akpeyi is better than Okoye? Na. This is anost dishonest post.

4. The jury is out on that one.

But I'm sure you can also find many videos of Neuer saving his country with outrageous saves, I pray you to find one (just one) of Okoye making anything other than routine saves. Yes a keeper can make a mistake, but Okoye has NEVER shown to be more than a routine save making keeper for the SE. He's never show he can be the difference maker back there. That is what you need as a NT GK, means you are the best of the best available and it should show. Yes you can make a mistake here or there, but there should still be a body of work showing why you are the best....Okoye doesn't have that, Uzoho does, even Akpeyi does...

[ANC]

Tunisia was amazing, how did they do it?
Locked Awoniyi and Moses down completely

[1naija]

Nonsense. He didn't get service for 3 ganes? What service did Sadiq get that he almost equalized for us ? You have to put yourself in position to get service in the first place.

[vancity eagle]

Okoye is horrible. He shouldn't even be #3.

The previous matches he was shaky. I believe he even dropped a ball today before conceding the goal.

The Tunisians knew he was a basket and had scouted this. They were shooting any chance they got.

I prefer akpeyi at this point.

Kpom

We keep hearing "awoniyi get no service"

Yet in 2 matches Sadiq finds himself one on one with keeper.

Even though he didn't score he is at least getting himself into dangerous positions, something Awoniyi failed woefully to do.

There it is, we are celebrating "ALMOST"....how low we've come without Osimhen...btw why aren't also celebrating the "ALMOST" that was the Simon 1 v 1 and whoever it was that created that...

Sadiq is a far better striker than Awoniyi….mace04 remember?

Okoye is a kid with better attributes than Akpeyi and Just slightly better than Uzoho

Awoniyi is a back up at best. Ighalo has no business in the team….I will welcome V.Moses though

Forward line of

Moses Oshimen and Dennis will cause Havoc

Save against Salah wasn’t routine bro
