Nigeria's top 3 strikers.....opinion

[Enugu II]

In my opinion, after watching this AFCON, the Nigerian striker position that seemed forever unsolved has become quite clear. Previously Nigeria tried Iheanacho, Nwankwo, Onuachu, Dessers, etc without any clarity on is directly behind Osimhen. We know that this was partly dealt with by moving Iheanacho to the top of the midfield as a support striker type. However after this AFCON, I believe Umar Sadiq clearly shows he can be the second option after Osimhen. Awoniyi has moved back to third. That is my view. Onuachu is now outside of that group.

[Bigpokey24]

I have these two as my option . Vic and Sadiq. ( to me Sadiq is miles ahead of awoniyi

[vancity eagle]

U mean u not buying into the propaganda that he "played poorly" in the 10 minutes he was given ?

At least he created chances for himself, which is more than we can say for Awoniyi.

[Flex Swift]

My own be say if Nigeria likes go and select Sadiq to lead the attack against Ghana in March.

Osimhen. Sadiq. Moffi.

[1naija]

I am curious, what did Awoniyi do in the tournament to move ahead of Onuachu or even Ighalo?

[bret- hart]

Osimhen, Sadiq, Desser/Awoniyi

[Sunset]

1. Osimhen
2. Onuachu

3rd spot is Between Sadiq, Dennis, Moffi & Awoniyi for me as we're yet to see any of them being given a consistent run of games yet.

...as long as Osinhme is healthy.
Between now and March is long time, they have a lot of club matches to play and we hope none is injured.

For me it is not about who's the best striker but rather which is the best combination for our attack. If we cast our mind back we will remember that while Yekinni was being played as our top striker alongside Amokachie he wasn't even the top striker in the Portuguese league where he was playing then. Richard Oowobokiri was the highest goal scorer in that league. In fact there was a season RO was the highest scorer in the whole of Europe, yet CW considered Yekinni as the best fit for his formation.

With that, for a 4-3-3 formation i will go for an attacking front of Chukwueze on the right, Osimhen in the center and Dennis on the left. This will be backed by a midfield of Atebo as the base flanked on either side by Aribo and Ndidi.

And if the coach goes for a 4-2-3-1 formation the top striker should be Osimhen with Chukwueze on the right, Aribo in the middle and Dennis on the left. The twin midfield should be Atebo and Ndidi.

Now in a 4-4-2 formation i will go for Onwuachi and Dennis as the twin striker, something akin to Yekinni/Amokachi combination. My wingers will be Chukwueze and Simon with any two from Atebo/Ndidi/Aribo as the midfielders.

It's all about formation and combination. I didn't include the defence because that defence basically choose itself.

You left out Osimhen in your 4-4-2 formation. Na mistake or na whisky dey work for you body?

ol'boy it's too early for a glass of whisky. By the way i don't do whisky if na odeku then we game. It's on purpose i left out Osimhen in my 4-4-2 formation because i do not think he will be a good fit for it. I might be wrong.
