Now they are actually passing the ball.

Aina sigh... poor game today
We have been brainwashed by the Premier League that it's the best in the world. Nonsense. It's the best brand
Roy Keane: ITV 02/25/14

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.

Yes he should have been out. I don't want to see him in another game again. He is useless.

Should retire.
Likewise you. You are whatever you call Iwobi.
He didn't come to play. He was afraid. If he was afraid he should have told the coach.
Go and play, let's see. Just go and sit down.

No mind them.

Some fools are still advocating to play TWO midfielders.

Aribo can control the ball?

Does our coach not know his formation has been viewed and reviewed and planned for? I thought we will be deploying our rampaging formation of 3-5-2.

Likewise you. You are whatever you call Iwobi. You folks will never attack the root of the problem, just find a scapegoat and attack him all game. Nonsense.
Iwobi is legitimately poor. He cannot pass accurately, cannot defend, and cannot score.

So what am.i saying that is wrong?
Buhari, whose two terms thankfully ground to a constitutional halt in May. (One thing both democracies have going for them is that their leaders, however bad, have only two terms to swing the wrecking ball.) Under Buhari, growth per head also plunged to 0. An economic agenda drawn from the dusty pages of a 1970s protectionist handbook failed to do the trick. Despite Buhari’s promise to tame terrorism and criminality, violence flourished. Despite his reputation for probity, corruption swirled. FT

Ola Aina has had a very poor game as most of the team. Our goal was against the run of play. 90 minutes we are done

Exactly. We've played a brand of football which is negative in the extreme. Yes, it got us to the final but frankly speaking it's not good enough. There's a difference between been set up defensively, but with an intent to attack when the opportunity arises. Let's get a coach who can give us balance in attack and defense, Peseiro is not the man to do that. Even at a goal up, we were just turning the over with long balls all the time.

Poorest selection of ayers. They still hanging on to Rohr era players that missed on on a WC spot to Ghana. Iwobi is done, Aina offers very little and Aribo is hardly a footbsller. It took too long to remove Iwobi. Anyway am out. They overachieved but their undoing are 2-3 atrocious footballers.
