Re: Nigeria v KSA. Starting lineup and game thread
Good performance so far.
Semi Ajayi's passing no be am.
Lookman looks slow...what's up? He had a good turn of pace.
Boniface looks like a Kanu type. Skillful but lazy.
Ebuehi is awful.

Re: Nigeria v KSA. Starting lineup and game thread
I don't know about the highlighted. Our players are just a bit too fast for them and havent made a ton of mistakes. They are struggling against our press.
We have been brainwashed by the Premier League that it's the best in the world. Nonsense. It's the best brand

I think Spain’s by far the best league.

Re: Nigeria v KSA. Starting lineup and game thread
Wow, just wow.
I can say today that coaching and formation IS NOT THE PROBLEM.
The formation is actually working very well today, and the players are playing positionally very well to make this formation work. Something we havent seen in the past.
The problem is THE PLAYERS, and their piss poor finishing and decision making in the final third.
Osimehn and Lookman both missed sitters
Boniface shot from a poor angle when he could have squared to Lookman for an easy tap in.
Chukwueze failed to hit an empty net.
Ebuehi is not SE material. I now see why 3 coaches in a row have not fancied him. I guess this was Peseiro giving him one final chance, and he has failed miserably.I expect Samuel to replace him in the 2nd half.
Chukwueze has been also very poor.
Boniface dissapears at times.
Despite the many complaints, the team, AS A TEAM, and positionally has played very well.
They are well coached I can tell you that. Peseiro is nowhere near the problem.

Re: Nigeria v KSA. Starting lineup and game thread
At Lookman delivered some dangerous crosses.
Samu needs help. So much talent, so poorly used.
Ebuehi doesn’t belong in the SE.Theres nothing there.
Bruno on the other hand is a massive revelation. Both defensively and offensively.

Re: Nigeria v KSA. Starting lineup and game thread
I see why Nigeria will struggle in AFCON
Our so called strikers cannot convert chances in high pressure situations. There seems to be misunderstanding finding themselves in the final 3rd of the pitch.
The team cannot move the ball in the middle of the park, we have to resort to the wings
When wingers are not delivering the team is flat
Need to see what Fisayo can do along with Boniface in the middle attacking 3rd.

Re: Nigeria v KSA. Starting lineup and game thread
A decent game. Quick passing and playing with purpose. But there are some question marks. Ebuehi has been merely average. Lookman also seems ineffective
Ghana's First President Kwame Nkrumah said: "We face neither East nor West; we face Forward"
Re: Nigeria v KSA. Starting lineup and game thread
Ebuehi, Ajayi, Chukwueze and Lookman haven't played well. Ajayi is very poor playing out from the back. He has made like 4 wrong passes.
Its nice when someone shoots ur murderer in the back, without asking to be paid.

Re: Nigeria v KSA. Starting lineup and game thread
How many teams can effectively move the ball in the part of the congested part of the field where most of the bodies are? Playing it through the wings where we have our fastest players makes sense. We just havent converted the handful of chances that we have had. Delivery into the box has been pretty good compared to what we have seen in the past.Robotnik wrote: ↑Fri Oct 13, 2023 6:01 pm I see why Nigeria will struggle in AFCON

Re: Nigeria v KSA. Starting lineup and game thread
I agree overall we’ve been played a good possession game and took it to them, but yes they are very poor team, but our poor finishing might give them confidence in the second half…

Re: Nigeria v KSA. Starting lineup and game thread
1. Chukwueze been Poor
2. Ebuehi has been poor going forward... most useless SE player in this half
3. Iwobi is not moving, not influencing midfield play
4. Lukman and Oyemachi combining well, but Lookman's finishing poor
5. No creativity behind Osimen and Boniface, so we're making the duo do extra work. We need Iheanachor in the 2nd
6. Lukman should understand a team psychology - You give Osimeh the ball to bury it, not when we're yet to score.
7. In spite of our ball possession, I'm yet to see us make those possession count in terms of positive forward movement. We're not creating spaces in the middle until we send the balls to the wings.

Re: Nigeria v KSA. Starting lineup and game thread
I can see why Lookman is a support striker in Atalanta. He just isn't effective against fast defenders on the wings.
Plenty of positives though. Ndidi looks very good. Iwobi looks good. Osimhen is Osimhen.

Re: Nigeria v KSA. Starting lineup and game thread
What's gone wrong with Ebuehi? That injury has really set him back.. He doesn't look strong on the ball (not that he was very strong before) and doesn't have the confidence he used to have before. I feel for the boy.

Re: Nigeria v KSA. Starting lineup and game thread
I thought I was the only one who noticed Ajayi’s poor passing. I counted at least 3 such passes and Ebuehi is playing himself out of the team. His competition are Osayi-Samuel and Aina, and they both offer better.
Chukwueze just dey spoil ball, although he gave that wonderful pass to Lookman
I am happy

All Pessiero needs to do is remove Lookman for Fisayo . That’s all!
OCCUPY NFF!!
Re: Nigeria v KSA. Starting lineup and game thread
Chukwueze and Lookman are not far behind. Lookman even looks dangerous but Chukwueze is just dancing around the ball apart from that pass to Lookman. I will sub both if I am the coach. They need to know they should be doing much better.
