Nigeria v KSA. Starting lineup and game thread

[Bigpokey24]

for those watching , do not pay attention to the bullsheeettt commentary in this thread from some CE folks, i do not know what game they are watching telling BS about players playing rubbish.,. The truth is Saudi are not pressing the SE and they are very slow on the ball..

Ebuehi has been OK. There is competition in that position with Osayi-Samuel and Aina, so we are more than covered there.

3 really poor players in this team:

1) Chukweze will cost you games. Should not start, and has not deserved to start for a long time. Maybe Never actually.

2)Calvin Bassey will lose you games. Way too much needless brawn. Can create a penatly out of nowhere. Surely Awaziem has to be better. Not that Ajayi is international level, but he is not a penalty and card magnet.

3)Uzoho (and Okoye) are nowhere near national team quality. Uzoho had some potential 6 years ago (Deportivo), but he has clearly lost his way in Cyprus or wherever he plays (or doesn't). Time to do whatever it takes to get Tobias Lawal, Arthur Okonkwo (yes he is in Wrexham, but there is a backstory), and Noah Atubolu

Our central defence is shaky

The search for a competent goalie continues.

Please add Sadiq to the list of the really poor players. Way too many quality strikers for him to be getting called up. At least Bassey and Chukwueze should be part of the 23.

The guy has been useless from day 1.

Iheanacho should start ahead of Chukwueze

[mapet]

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.

Are you sure you watching the same game No creativity, and Iheanacho is the solution?

You see why when your elders are commenting on football, small boys like you should keep shut?

Has CE crashed? I can't even post anymore

[Bigpokey24]

The Saudi Goalie is the man of the match, , we should have been u p at least 5 goals

Yes because he created a chance? Are you ok?

[anointed]

We need to exchange goalies with Saudi Arabia.
