I won’t be surprised if we used the 4-3-3 for this game.

I won’t lie Mabululu scared me a little bit. Them boys with dreads in the African continent were known as ballers back in the days.

Re: Nigeria vs South Africa: 11AM CT, 6PM Nigerian time
I don’t like what Osai looked like in the last game he played. Why can’t Peseinro play Bruno? Aina is much better on the right.Synopsis wrote: ↑Wed Feb 07, 2024 1:10 pm Owngoal reporting Pesseiro will stick with the 3-4-3. Zaidu injured. Aina to play left back.

Re: Nigeria vs South Africa: 11AM CT, 6PM Nigerian time
Agree with the post on Oseyi. The guy was horrible in the game against CIV I think. Every decision he made was unbelievably poor. I would stick Bassey at Left back and bring in Omeruo at center-back - the same line-up that finished the Cameroon match minus Onuachu.
Are you saying that things you do not know, do not exist, just because you do not know that they exist?
Re: Nigeria vs South Africa: 11AM CT, 6PM Nigerian time
I think Oseyi decision hints at Paseiro wanting more attacking options. Omer up in the back three means only Ajayi is confident stepping out and that makes the system much less dynamic.
But it’s a big call. Oseyi was poor against CIV. An afcon semi final is a heck of an arena to redeem yourself.

Re: Nigeria vs South Africa: 11AM CT, 6PM Nigerian time
Yeah, against Guinea-Bissau, Aina was a non-factor at LB and Osai looked lost. Hope things will be different today.Lolly wrote: ↑Wed Feb 07, 2024 1:16 pmI don’t like what Osai looked like in the last game he played. Why can’t Peseinro play Bruno?

There’s no LB in 343, only a LWB. Bassey would not last 30 mins as a LWB.Goalgetter wrote: ↑Wed Feb 07, 2024 1:27 pm Agree with the post on Oseyi.

Re: Nigeria vs South Africa: 11AM CT, 6PM Nigerian time
Osayi should be fine. His major issue last time out was positioning. Peseiro wants his wingbacks to close up the spaces whenever the opponents get the ball, even if it is close to the halfway line. For some reason, Bright just would not do this and it drove him mental. He would hold his position and that unbalanced the team and made it difficult for his team-mates.
Hopefully this time around he has the memo. Apart from that he is a good player. I look for him to have a great game today.

He didnt play against CIV and the whole team was below average against Guinea Bissau.Goalgetter wrote: ↑Wed Feb 07, 2024 1:27 pm Agree with the post on Oseyi.

We have all seen Bright Osayi play for Nigeria and many people were already writing off Aina, because of Bright's fantastic performances. I am not worried about him.
My issues about this is two things:
1. Aina has been head-and-shoulders the best RB in the tournament. Why would you even contemplate moving him to LB. The only time he played LB in this tournament, he was below average. So, why would you self-sabotage? But that is the Nigerian way.
2. if Bruno cannot step in, what is he doing on the team? Why invite a player you do not trust? Or is he another injured player that was taking for the ride?

Re: Nigeria vs South Africa: 11AM CT, 6PM Nigerian time
Question would be can Bassey go up and down for 90 mins..I think Bassey will end up there at some point during the match with Osayi being subbed and Aina moving back to the right…Goalgetter wrote: ↑Wed Feb 07, 2024 1:27 pm Agree with the post on Oseyi.

Re: Nigeria vs South Africa: 11AM CT, 6PM Nigerian time
I remember him - He squandered a counter against CIV.. held on to the ball instead of releasing the ball for a free Osimhen. He almost drove Perseiro crazy during his time on the pitch.danfo driver wrote: ↑Wed Feb 07, 2024 3:50 pmHe didnt play against CIV and the whole team was below average against Guinea Bissau.Goalgetter wrote: ↑Wed Feb 07, 2024 1:27 pm Agree with the post on Oseyi.

He says that we are currently "brainwashed" into believing that the Premier League is the best competition in the world, and that we are now a long way off dominating the Champions League again.
Gary Neville: Mirror: 12/23/14
I think Spain’s by far the best league.
