Ndidi suffers knee ligament damage

https://www.google.com/amp/s/soccernet. ... y.html/amp

Omeruo has also been our with a groin injury for a few weeks.

Aina ain't seen a referee since Afcon.

Troost is a regular DNP


The most important question now is , How can we convince the Nigeria railway corporation to open up the route Eguavoen was taking about? Wahala dey o'

Ndidi is a BIG time loss.

He is a tenacious winner of the ball and most times does it without fouling. I expect the coaching crew to make the necessary adjustments which will include putting more bodies in central midfield. They need a ball winner and one who has the lungs of Ndidi.

He won't be easy to replace but I hope the other players pick up the slack.

We already replaced him once, successfully I might add vs Cape Verde on the road.

Agreed. But tougher opponents this time…

Bonke? Do you know something we don't? Isn't it Onazi up next?

This will be a completely different game from Cape Verde. A derby game with the World Cup ticket on the line in front of a hostile crowd in Kumasi and an expectant crowd in Abuja.

I fear for us. We will have to make do with Etebo, Onyeka and Aribo. If one of these 3 have to sub off we are in further danger.

Etebo?

Automatic for the people.

I like to think we are not that callous to bring in Onazi.

He's more than holding his own in Ligue 1 atm

To me and you, yes but Onazi is who's on the standby list not Bonke.

Bonke was his replacement in that match but he is not even on standby this time around.

[1naija]

In case we've forgotten, here is the list.

I think we have capable replacements for Ndidi on the List. I personally think Ajayi can play that role as well.

[1naija]

I would call Awaziem to replace Ndidi and move Ajayi to midfield.

[Tobi17]

I would call Awaziem to replace Ndidi and move Ajayi to midfield.

You always talk like someone with a brain concussion, why should we move a natural playing defender into an unfamiliar midfield position especially in a very crucial game? why not just call up Bonke or any of the defensive mids around to replace Ndidi if he doesn't make it... guy na wa for you ooo

[1naija]

So let's see... You want to just call up a random player not on the standby list to replace replace an injured player on the list? That must be how it works in coocoo land where you rule supreme.

Bonke isn't an unfamiliar face, he has played in a crucial qualifier game under Rohr and didn't do badly, he now plays in a decent French league... why can't he be called up considering his good form? why are some of you so rigid and one dimensional?

Ots a generally known fact that Awaziem , though a CD , can and played played DM for his club in the past including Nantes and FC Porto. Onku is right on this.

[1naija]

Again, is Bonke on the standby list? Or you want to use open eye to call him up?

[deanotito]

Really really sad for Ndidi. He's a master at his position, and the world won't get to see him for a few months

[vancity eagle]

it wouldn't be the first time that a player NOT ON STANDBY was called to replace a player. its been done many times, I think we have even done it before.

It just shows that the original callups are not even based on merit.

Some players are listed on "standby" just to boost their profile, and they are never inteded as a legit backup option. I suspect Onazi is one of those players. I would be shocked if Egu truly called him up. I hope to God Egu is not foolish enough to actually consider him an option.

Out for a few weeks. Max 10 days

?? A few weeks or maximum 10 days. Which is it?
