LOL. He just second guessed himself there. Not sure what’s up this tourney for him, he has been better offensively for the eagles in the past.SylverEagles wrote: ↑Fri Feb 02, 2024 6:39 pm If we talk now, they will come and tell us how Zaidu is Roberto Carlos and Cafu rolled into one.
What a waste.
We have been brainwashed by the Premier League that it's the best in the world. Nonsense. It's the best brand

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.

I think Spain’s by far the best league.

Iwobi is not good defensively. He's not proactive and kinda lazy when it comes to tracking players.metalalloy wrote: ↑Fri Feb 02, 2024 6:37 pm Like i said in the other thread, i disagree with the notion that Iwobi is as good as Simon defensively

Look at the defensive work and positioning of Iwobi in the middle and you'll see. Dont forget Iwobi played RWB at Everton for a season or so.metalalloy wrote: ↑Fri Feb 02, 2024 6:37 pm Like i said in the other thread, i disagree with the notion that Iwobi is as good as Simon defensively
Haba zaidu!!!
Defensively is less than 50% tackling (which i believe Iwobi is better), its a lot about positioning and tracking. Put Simon in the middle and it wont be a good sight

This might just be the best team we've had in a while guys
Re: Nigeria vs Angola (1-0) Lookman HT
Offensively Zaidu is subpar today/ Is this psychological or he reasons the other way around?

Re: Nigeria vs Angola (0-0)
I think he actually has the skills for this system. Perhaps he is not in form or he has never played a 3-4-3 before so doesnt understand what to do, in terms of positioning.truetalk wrote: ↑Fri Feb 02, 2024 6:39 pmCoaching is not too hard.truetalk wrote: ↑Fri Feb 02, 2024 6:13 pm Zaidu is being asked to do something he isn't capable of.
He is a decent defender, but not good going forward, as such cannot be a wing back or wing forward.
Bruno may be better at this stage. Tyronne and Jamilu Collins should have been the extra men for this squad if we want to keep using this formation going forward. 6 wingbacks/wingforwards/full backs (whatever you choose to call them)
These guys are going to make the fans turn on Zaidu, & it will be unfair.
He does not fit this system.
His poor decision-making has nothing to do with the system. He is clearly just dull.

People are forgetting Zaidu release the ball for Simon Moses, which led to the goal. Defensively, he has covered Bassey very well.truetalk wrote: ↑Fri Feb 02, 2024 6:39 pmCoaching is not too hard.truetalk wrote: ↑Fri Feb 02, 2024 6:13 pm Zaidu is being asked to do something he isn't capable of.

Re: Nigeria vs Angola (1-0) Lookman
I agree with you 100%. Iwobi's positioning is impeccable in the middle. The other thread suggested replacing Simon on the wings with Iwobi in order to accommodate Alhassan. I said there that you lose out on Simon's speed on counter attacks and recovery on defense. There is no way Iwobi is chasing down that Angolan when they countered like Simon did, or even getting to that pass that Simon got to before the Angolan defender leading to the goal. He is just too quick.danfo driver wrote: ↑Fri Feb 02, 2024 6:41 pmLook at the defensive work and positioning of Iwobi in the middle and you'll see.

Re: Nigeria vs Angola (1-0) Lookman HT
For me he's played well on the defensive end of the game. But when it comes to crossing, he has zero confidence which is a head scratcher for a Porto FC player.imehjunior wrote: ↑Fri Feb 02, 2024 6:40 pm Zaidu na waste pipe. Complete short one. No way anyone picking him during a game of set.

They blew by him in the early minutes of the game and that nearly created a goal/scoring opportunity for Angola.

The replay of Nwabali save at 03:45, shows how very good it was. If na someone else, na goal.
