Former Nigerian winger, Garba Lawal believes the list of invited players by Super Eagles coach, Jose Peseiro to face Sierra Leone for the 2023 Africa Cup of Nations qualifiers are capable of picking the maximum six points against Sierra Leone and Sao Tome.
Recall that in the early hours of Saturday morning, the Portuguese tactician named a 25-man squad that include two Nigerian Professional Football League (NPFL) players.
They include Adewala Adeyinka of Akwa Ibom goalkeeper and Faisal Sani of Katsina United to the squad.

In a chat with Completesports.com, Lawal said that Peseiro has invited some of the best legs for the 2023 AFCON qualifiers.
“The list of invited players by Jose Peseiro for the upcoming qualifiers against Sierra Leone and Sao Tome has little or no question marks.
“However, you can’t invite everybody to the team. I am most impressed with the performance of the NPFL players and I hope they will also play a key part against Sierra Leone and Sao Tome.”

After this qualifer. Let him cumb Europe and invite his choice players not the one nff impose for him
The new coach Peseiro has definitely not heard of the name Taiwo Awoniyi yet.
Who even goes around to ask old these guys for their opinions?!
Who even goes around to ask all these guys for their opinions?!
Jose Peseiro must make overhaul in Super Eagles technical process and human elements in his team; technically he must change his tactic from 5-3-2 to a classic tactic which Super Eagles used to apply these tactics are 4-2-3-1 or 4-3-3 or 4-4-2, if the rival is big one and plays with pressing football , he can play with 4-2-3-1 or 4-5-1 , if the rival is small and weak without any complacency he can play with 4-3-3 or 4-4-2. On human elements he must exclude William Troost then must replace him with Godfry Oboabona or Ozornwafor or a player from NPLF, he must replace Etebo ,Onyeka , Bonke with strong and offensive and combative, ferociuos defensive midfielders like Anderson Esiti, Usman Mohammed, Joel Obi,Nwankwo Obiora thoes players have these traits which O mentioned above which will change the shape of SE defensively.If Peseiro does these tow elements he will creat formidable team which will make SE better team which can vie on African Cup of Nations in Cote De Ivore next year on championship.
