1 goal conceded in 3 games
It's not all doom and gloom. SE have only conceded 1 goal in 270mins of football.
That's championship level defense anywhere.
If our MF was as shambolic as this forum suggests, our defense would be a lot more porous.
The team needs to play better but if we maintain current defensive performance and miss just 1 less chance of the ones we create, we'll be poised to go far in this Afcon.
The best way to maintain and possibly improve defensive performance and create even more chances will be the availability of Yusuf.
Bench chukwueze. Move Iwobi to the right with ability to move centrally. I think this was originally proposed by Danfo conductor.
Nwabili
Troost------Ajayi------Bassey
Aina---------Onyeka------Yusuf-----Zaidu
Iwobi--------Vic---------Lookman.
Yusuf will have to be extremely deciplined and not roam out of position. We could also play a 352 with Iwobi behind Vic and Lookman. Our wingers have been ineffective anyway.
We can do it.

Re: 1 goal conceded in 3 games
Three at the back. That is the only tactic that has yielded any benefit since Peseiro joined. I am sure he thought we would always outscore our opposition but the toothless strike force have made him rethink.
Since we have wingbacks that are constantly showing up in attack, is there any need for wingers again? He should quietly go to 3-5-2 abeg.

Ajayi Omeruo Bassey
Aina Onyeka Yusuf Zanusi
Iwobi
Iheanacho/Lookman
Osimhen

Kpom! If wingers cannot deliver then we have to free up Iwobi so he can play further up and do something in MF to create.

Re: 1 goal conceded in 3 games
The key drawback with your lineup is that Iwobi is right footed and will operate better from the left. I would rather have Iheanacho, Osimhen and Iwobi as the front three… better yet would be a 2-man attack with Iheanacho behind Osimhen. No one in the SuperEagles can deliver those through balls for Osimhen as accurately as Iheanacho canEMIR KONGI JAFFI JOFFA wrote: ↑Tue Jan 23, 2024 7:52 pm It's not all doom and gloom.

Re: 1 goal conceded in 3 games
I don’t think Nacho is fit enough to start yet. If he’s fit then a straight swap for Chukwueze will do in a 343.TonyTheTigerKiller wrote: ↑Tue Jan 23, 2024 8:26 pmThe key drawback with your lineup is that Iwobi is right footed and will operate better from the left.

Re: 1 goal conceded in 3 games
Iheanacho will prove to be more effective playing in a 352 behind Osimhen than Iwobi cause we need a sublime finisher lurking in that 18 yrd box, that's why we really need Iheanacho fit and ready against Cameroon (him and Iwobi have the tournament experience of playing against Cameroon)...Ekong will also be pivotal for us.

Yusuf, Iwobi.
Iheanacho, Osimhen, Lookman
I think Ekong is out, the question is that can we gamble with a less than fully fit Yusuf?
