The away game against Guinea-Bissau today was a demonstration of the challenges in Nigeria's 🇳🇬 defence. The two CDs play for Div 2 clubs. BOS and Sanusi played well. However, it is risky to play with 2 attacking FBs like that and 5 attackers unless the CD pairing are rock solid. Ajayi and Omeruo were fine but they are not exactly Cannavaro and Nesta.

Igoh, Ndah, Fredricks, Ogwuche, Nwaze, Bruno. Dont ask me where they play at cos thats irrelevant. They are young CD ballerz thats all that matters.

At the age of 23 and almost 3 years after his debut for the SE.

Hope he continues to improve and gets more games.

It hasn't even been 2 years since his SE debut when he was with Feirense, he joined Porto B this season after two lackluster loans last season

There’s an 18 year old defender named Kayode at Fiorentina that we should keep an eye on. Saw him listed on the bench in their last game…

See better players. Matthew scored a sweet goal. But the bozos coaching the SEs will invite the same 3-4 midfielders. 2 of whom will be unfit.

Ogbe in particular for me is looking very impressive.
Comfortable on both feet, strong and it looks like he is versatile too.

You mean Igoh? That guy should have been called up 10 years ago. F Piss-ero.
