future captain….Calvin Bassey
this 0-10 make sens oooooooo
Abeg where we fit watch match online o?
Go on YouTube and type in Sao Tome & Principe Vs Nigeria. Good luck to Super Eagles. Ire o. God bless Nigeria!!!
From now on, I will never trust this coach Paseiro. This is why he got hired. NFF wanted a coach they can push around and they got it. He followed order from the Nigeria Football Federation. He internationally bench Dessers for Musa, Shehu and Umar Sodiq and Dennis.
I am speechless. Dennis have no space in that team likewise Musa, Shehu, Moffi.
This is an opportunity to cap tie Dessers and give him time to settle down in the Super Eagles. It is a shame that the coaching crew did a shabby job. What a country. Corruption is everything in this country. God bless Nigeria!!!
When I was saying Cerezo not selecting calvin Bassey for AFCON wasa big blow to Nigeria in 2022. People thought I was joking. That bad decision caused us AFCON mininum Semi’s with the other injuries but more importantly Ghana Jollof derby as he would have Gelled with the team by Ghana match if you take the 4 or 6 games we would have played in AFCON. Huge error by Eguavoen which ultimatly sealed his fate as coach of SE
He sha select am for world cup qualifiers what changed biko. Abi were you blind when he started both game and was gasping for air. Abeg make we hear word
The pitch is sweet.
That was a big factor. NFF is sabotaging the SE coaches and will then turn around and sack them for a poor result.
I was half expecting the refs to disallow Simon’s goal, lol.
The pitch obviously makes a difference. It’s making it easier for our boys to show their ability.
i dont even seems to understand this refree’s decisions…..
Guys, wake up and cheer the SE. Let’s not be disrespectful to STP! Two goals already.
Look at the stadium. Osimhen should have learned to avoid these offside traps.
Moffi has scored! The boy has been so unfortunate. Let’s hope he can now relax and play his game.
Bassey is so Good.. we are privilege to be blessed with such a player, but I prefer him as a left back, our opponent are not really testing him so much, but sanusi is not doing anything special, bassey is a million mile ahead of him as a left back.. bassey should return to the left back and release those sweet crosses from the Left.. the boys are playing well, the pitch is fantastic, Shame on nff, they can’t provide us a football pitch to play our football…. I would Love to see desser come for moffi , let’s finally cap him for Nigeria
Abi o…I tire o
Don’t you have respect for Ghanaian women?
His first cap bro.. play against him a second time, and see the difference
Stp is a cheap team lol
Super Eagles!!!
We are really showing owr quality.
Iwobi’s vision is second to none. He is the ideal playmaker.
Lookman has been average at best. He is not doing enough to keep Chukwueze worried.
Calvin bassey is super eagles future.
Terem moffi… I don’t know what to say.
Etebo is truly a funny player. He may not be doing well at club side but almost always perform at national matches.
Moses Simon proving that the responsibility of being captain might not be too heavy on him.
Ola aina is lowing his form that we know him for… but slowly.
Ajayi is calm and collected, not bad.
But above all… Victor Osimhen is beast! Already has a 10/10 rating for me.
Let’s keep going.
Super Eagles all the way!!!
@NFF and other corrupt government officials – May the wrath of God be upon you all. See pitch at Agadir? A city that is not up to Abuja or Lagos GDP. May you never spend those stolen money in peace! You are a bunch of disgrace to humanity.
Ajayi has grown in the super eagles.. he is benching balogun.. that’s says alot… I’m so surprised at the rate of his growth.. he is very gentle and Simple You hardly notice his quality but he is good..
Calm down! This is SAO lol
Baba Ajayi can never benched balogun, Balogun is injured, just recovering, ekong is injured, reason for all the make shift. what you should have siad is, Ajayi is benching Omeruo, bcs, he’s not injured, and he’s not starting. Zaidu is another person, completely dominiated by Bassey.
Balogun is not injured.. he is fit and you definitely saw him come in later in the game. Appreciate Ajayi he has improved alot
Nigerian fans are ridiculous…Praise the players so fast and critique so fast. This same team was beaten 5-1 by equatorial Guinea…Don’t let it get over your heads. They are ranked 51st out of the 54 countries in Africa and 150 something in the world. Make una dey chill…We haven’t been tested at all. So far the eagles have played well.
In the past can super eagles score 3 goal past this team. It’s not the score that we are celebrating but tactic, chances created
Im reading to see this very comment, because I know somebody will surely try to ridicule the team performance on the ground the opponent is weak, listen we not even happy about the score line but the seriousness in the players, so give them this plus Argentina with Messi won a minor team 5-0 just like week and we saw how they praise Messi to high heaven.
If you read my last line you will clearly see that I am not ridiculing their performance the fact is that Nigerian football fans are hypocritical, irrational, and impatient.
What a freekick by Etebo.
Brilliant.
Ok… Time to give Dessers some time
He couldn’t buy a goal before. Now it’s raining goals for Moffi.
I would suggest, no, BEG the NFF, that the Nigerian national team, should play ALL their home matches in a all competitions away from home. What we provide as football pitches, are horse racing fields. Its disgraceful.
Lookman joins the party. His first international goal.
E be like say score go reach 10 today ooo.
Na waya.
LMFAO!
Am EXPECTING my BOY MUSA to SCORE
Cos even a CRIPLE can SCORE in this kind of GAME…
LMFAO!!
Nigeria running riot…. OSIMHEN take a bow. Let DESSERS join the party please Coach PAJERO….lol
Pajero…hahaha!
Musa rolls back the years. The Turkey based speed demon, who is clearly no longer a fan favourite to a particular demography of Nigeria fans, remains relevant to the Super Eagles.
And to all those who might say “Oh, its only Sao Tome, ranked 1,000,000 places by FIFA”, it really doesn’t matter. My philosophy is, play any team, regardless, like you were playing the World champions. If it’s going to be a cricket score, so be it. Apply the same attitude and philosophy, for all matches.
Simplicity and urgency is the difference between present coach and past coaches
My area boys can beat this team lol
It make cheap lol
LMFAO!!
Abeg o make we no OVER DISRESPECT this COUNTRY by OVER SCORING oo
FIFA fit come think say na FRAUD then come SUSPEND us…
LMFAO!!
Abeg remove Osimhen and bring Dessers. We are yet to cap tie him in a competitive match.
Honestly, I don’t know what they are thinking on that bench o. At this rate, I have given up on the schemes they are playing against him.
it’s same team guinea beat in conakry 5-1…..well, maybe the return leg in Nigeria will be 20-0
NIG 8 SAO TOME 0
Agreed, Sao Tome is not on our level. However, if we had played them on our nonsense pitches, our boys would not have played as well as they did today. We might even have struggled.
Under Peseiro, if we meet Ghana on a pitch like this, na wotowoto for dem.
NFF ONIGBESE, give us good pitches!
U said the same thing under one dimensional EGU hahhaa
Stop putting ur trust in ur coaches because they wldnt last long the moment they meet UR HUSBAND lol
Egu was adjudged as the best coach in afcon during the group stages and he gotta his PHAT BOKOM ass handed to him by Ghana
Heheh
The BABE EAGLES are our WIVES and we ll molest them whenever we feel the need to lol
Btw before the match in abuja, before we came and ANNEXED it, most of u said that the Kumasi pitch is bad and that abuja pitch is great and ghana ll get wotowoto and what happened on the sweet abuja pitch? Lol
https://youtu.be/F800JFXipic
The BOKOM crooks turned this “ fine” pitch into BRAWLING ARENA
Hehehe
Excuses, excuses and excuses and for Nigeria there’s always something lol
If is isn’t buhari
Then is nff president
Or oga rohr
Heheh he
Everything na CONNECTION…
This is the reason why Ghana ll always beat u because u bought into this narrative that ur CHICKENS are superior and hence we ll always bring out all the TOOLS IN OUT TOOLBOX against u lol
It ll take decades for Nigeria to beat us, u want to know why?
Whenever we meet u, we want to CONFIRM OUT SUPERIORITY and until the day u guys accept the fact that u aren’t that good, we ll always MOLEST OUR WIVES hahaha
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7r9y3kdchJA
Me too, I go show you video to remind you of what happened in 2001, when Ghana COLLECTED WOTOWOTO in Port Harcourt. Nigeria collected the world cup ticket at Ghana’s expense on that lovely day.
Tijani Babangida and co. used Ghana to dance SKELEWU.
After that, our wonderful NFF contrived to frustrate that team, leading to most of them being dropped for supporting captain Oliseh’s protest for their rightful bonuses.
Nigeria went to the world cup without most of her best players, and missed the chance to make a good impression at the mundial….THANKS TO THE GREEDY, SELFISH NFF OFFICIALS.
So Selfie my man, don’t forget to send a THANK YOU card to our NFF. If not for them, Nigeria would be at the world cup, not Ghana. With a good NFF, Nigeria would spank Ghana more often.
Kudos Pompei…hahaha
That mumu won’t like to see that. There’s practically nothing Ghana has done to us that we’ve not done to them. So, what’s the noise from this scoundrel really about?
Indeed, what they did to us, we have done to them as well.
That’s why we are rivals. They beat us sometimes, we beat them sometimes.
The next time we meet, I fancy our chances.
Sao Tome no gree again ooo.
Dem no wan make Nigeria score reach 10.
8 don do.
And just as I say that, Osimhen strikes again.
The thing I like about this team is their hunger for more unlike our usual SE mentality of relaxing when it seems they are going well. Osimhen’s hunger is like dry ground that keep asking for more water.
I knew that Iwobi just needs a natural DM alongside him.
The opponent may be weak, but the performance of the Iwobi-Etebo combo has contributed a great deal to this result.
Nigeria 10 Sao Tome 0
Nigeria 10 Saotome 0
Man-inhumanity to man
There is God o
Sao Tome don collect WOTOWOTO.
Eyaaa. Sorry ooo.
Ten – Nil!
I cannot believe that I missed the match!
They should be more forth coming with game dates and start times sha haba
Anyway, a win is a win but I wish I had been able to watch it.
Up
COYSE!
At this point, I think it’s established that there’s a conspiracy against Dessers love for the SE. I won’t blame him if he eventually switches back to Belgium.
It is really beyond me to think that Dessers couldn’t get 2 minutes across 180 minutes of international matches that would have guaranteed us his services throughout his career.
I’m done.
He was poor against Ecuador fluffing two one on one with the goalkeeper which should have at least guaranteed us a draw,but we lost and Peseiro was sad not getting anything from the two games.
He may not get call up for our next games because Iheanacho,Onuachu and Isaac Success probably one of them should join the party.
Guy forget that talk abeg, which player no dey mess up? He played 2 games & scared a goal, na failure be that? Why didn’t all the other strikers score in all the games they played for the SE? If there was anytime to cap-tie Dessers, it was today
This is so in unfair!
10-0
Nigeria why!!!
If this was any of those shameful/ shameless ghanian beggars, Nna! innocent people in Nigeria will never hear the last of it from those black face smelly mouth born troways like Selfmad and monkeypest lol!
Banzas and Barawos lol
U BOKOM APE lol
FOOT SOLDIER Hahah
Ur stinking MOUTH like CHAMBER POT
Hehehe
God punish your whole dirty shitface generation!
You can breathe oxygen and stil have access to type abi?
Iku buruku lo fin sere!
MARK MY WORDS
Selfmade bastard, So you have the guts insult Field Marshal like this, mark my words, you will pay dearly for this insolence.
Self made swine is gone. We are happy. He is destroyed.
Good result. The only MAJOR downside is the failure to cap tie Dessers.
I hope it doesn’t come back to haunt us.
Desser missed up big time in the game against Ecuador.. the coach doesn’t play players to please them, he plays only the best.. I feel bad for deserr, at least 2 mins, we have won the game already, but it seems this coach is a no nonsense coach.. no game time for Sam chuks, aribo and desser, probably he is sending a message to them to up their game..
With 2 consequent cards for aino, he should be missing the next match in Nigeria, who will replace him.. we don’t have a quality right back at the moment playing regularly, probably akpoguma will be called back
Guy forget that talk abeg, which player no dey mess up? He played 2 games & scared a goal, na failure be that? Why didn’t all the other strikers score in all the games they played for the SE? If there was anytime to cap-tie Dessers, it was today
Etebo was super today.His combo with Iwobi was what was missing against Sierra Leone.
I think fans should now understand what i mean’t by midfielders who are pretty comfortable with the ball which Bonke didn’t fit in.
Peseiro is a very experienced coach i was surprised fans were against his initial appointment,I couldn’t understand why because going through his coaching history,I was impressed because this is a man that has seen it all in coaching,he was involved with the likes of Braga,Sporting sp,Fc Porto,Real Madrid,Al Ahly of Egypt,Saudi and Venezulean national teams respectively.
We could see his football knowledge rubbing off our super eagles,he’s only been around of late hopefully,we would have some of our best footballing moments in his time.
Etebo was solid but he is no Match to Onyinye Wilfred “the Rock” Ndidi.. The Coach will see that when Ndidi joins the Camp again
I don’t totally agree with your summation on ndidi a better DM than Etebo. Sentiment apart, ndidi has alot of weakness in his game. One he is not good in long range pass, not an excellent long range shooter. Though, one the best in tackling, breaking play and winning the ball. But the dude cannot even take set piece or dribble with the ball.
However, etebo is an embodiment of all these qualities. Etebo only predicament as always been injury.
You are so right.. I love his tactics and his changes..
Pls we should leave musa alone.. did you see his impact when he came in, musa for me is not done with this team, and he would silently prove his doubters wrong..
We just won and scored the highest number of goals in an competitive match..
Kudos to pesiro!!
I still feel deseer should have been given some few mins, cap this guy , but he is sending him a message to up his game. Maybe!
@Ololo, I will remind you this your comment when we play better teami I. Even retired Odemwingie will play like Ronaldinho against this team talkless of Musa.
Leave musa alone.. I saw the game and even as weak our opponent were they still didn’t allow some players play so well, for me musa was better than Dennis today, he was also better than lookman.. if he can still play at their level or abit higher than what they produce, it means he deserves his shirt.. abeg free musa
Even a backroom staff confirmed it to me at there recent friendly that Musa is way better than some of the forwards we have and that he is still within range and that we the fans are quick to want to destroy players. And today he performed. Well for me, i need us to face a stronger team. Let them display all this with a stronger opponent. Why dessers was not played in both games baffles me and we didn’t hear if he had any injury. All those making noise about the Abuja field, please did anyone complain about the field but you the fans. Not even our opponent made any noise about it
OLOLO may your DAYS be long like METUSALA for that MUSA COMMENT
I told them that MUSA still gat alot to OFFER but some people like @UGO IWUNZE will call me all MANNER of NAMES
It is high time OUR ex Footballers and Class of 96 need to stand up and respect our New Golden Generation.. We salute them for what they have done. But it will be a real shame if we do not realise the full Heights this current class can hit because of Interference and meddling in the coaches job which is to select our best legs from this talented bunch God has blessed Nigeria with now.
You are a FOOL for trying to DISRESPECT our SE CLASS of 96…
The same CLASS of 96 that beat the same SOUTH AMERICAN teams that this Present GENERATION can not beat teams like MEXICO, BRAZIL or which other CLASS of 96 are you talking of??
Oshimen has 15 goals in 22 caps. He will surely beat the yekini’s record.
What a striker!
I want to congratulate, iwobi, etebo, bassey ( the rock), musa, Simon and oshimen.. but I want to add this, a new player has been added to our team and his name is moffi, he will surely get more invitations going forward.
No matter how bad dessers is, he should have played few part in this game.
Moffi scored two goals , good for him but it’s cos of the weak team he played against. What the March again and see the rubbish he payed before those goals.
With the return of iheanacho, Awoniyi and co, I doubt if Dessers will be called again. ..just noticed part of me isn’t happy upon the 10 goals.
We should leave the coach to do his job, if he feels deseer should stay on the bench let him stay there..
For me I think the coach is trying to make him understand what it means to play for super eagles, you don’t miss two or more chances when you have an oshimen to compete with, you go chop bench be that.. players like aribo, chukwueze were given same treatment today. It is a wake up call..
I think the coach wanted to see more of other players not in USA. It’s great that we have many options. I also think the coach is making it clear that Osimen is his point man and is trying to see how other strikers can play behind with him. I think Sadiq and Morfi fits not sure Dessers does. However, he can be a direct substitute for Osimen.
***Watch the match****
Don’t mind them gushing over Moffi’s performance against a sub-par team.
I doubt anyone noticed Desser’s look of frustration on the bench. He may be pinching himself, wondering if he made the best decision on his international football career.
I see that guy turning out very great in a few years..it will be a pity if he’s not a SE by then.
@Sean, for the first time in history, you won my heart for speaking the truth.
For me, I thank God for the victory but I can’t celebrate this victory for several reasons, no1, Musa and Shehu shouldn’t have played today because we have other options.
Dennis is unserious player in the Super Eagles and such a player have no place in the national team.
Adeleye should have replaced Uzoho in the second half and Dessers should have come in in the second half.
I am not impressed with the new coach so far. I have to be honest with you Nigerians.
Until we player with the likes of Algeria, Senegal, Morocco, Tunisia and Egypt.
The coach did well by benching Dessers against Sierra Leone last week based on what Dessers displayed against Ecuador and after Ecuador match as a good coach, he would have called Dessers separately and warned him to be more serious whenever he call upon at the national team.
In today’s match, come on Oga Paseiro, you fumbled big time. You have bn biased in your selection and I am very uncomfortable with it.
Winning 10-0 is sweet but it would be more sweeter if everyone is happy in the team.
So far, I won’t be deceived, I am not convinced enough about the new gaffer period.
My advice to Dessers, you reap what you sow. Next time if he get another chance to represent Nigeria, he will take it seriously. I don’t follow people blindly I always said. Ire o. God bless Nigeria!!!
I watched a movie once called “Planet of the Apes”. There was a clownish character in it called “omo9ja”. He had a low or non existent IQ and walked on his head all through the movie.
LOL
I appreciate the detailed account of the match. The author followed the game closely and had a lot of knowledge about the teams and players involved.
I think it was an excellent result for Nigeria, considering they were up against a team much lower than them in the FIFA rankings.
Their ability to score ten goals without conceding is a testament to their quality as a team.
What I found most impressive about Nigeria’s performance was their ability to maintain possession of the ball and create chances for themselves.
They were also very clinical in front of goals, which they will need to continue doing if they want to be successful in future matches.
I believe this result will give Nigeria a lot of confidence going into their next match against Ghana.
If they can play to the same level, then I think they also have a good chance of winning that game.
This is a bait by Ghanian psycho don’t fall for it lol..
Well done my presious super eagles.Am getting to forget the failure to qualify for the WC gradually. It might just be SAP,but this is a sure way to show that we r getting there.though still a long way to go but we wil surely be there soon.
Was waiting for a perfect timing to respond to the extremely clueless and meaningless fans of se who constantly condemn and call for the untimely retirement of Hammed Musa.
For sure Musa is definitely not done with se.For those who have turned ethnicity into sport you must have seen Musa’s contribution in the match today. He had a hand in 3goals.Musa was purposeful and direct and.played to the coaches instructions.
Musa is undoubtedly one of eagles most successful players of all time and am convinced he will do more.
Reasonable and true fans across the world don’t condemn their players or call call for their retirement after they think they have used them up. I am so glad the coaches still belive in him and nothing those fans say that will change anything.
Well, as for self made King, while I congratulate u on the qualification of Ghana for world Cup, it must be.said that for the stupid head to head rule the reverse wil be the case.Pls stop what u r doing because nha u the thing go pain pass.The fact that U emerged ahead of us is a huge fluke and am sure even u is surprised cos u never expected it.
Nigeria,Is miles ahead Ghana footballing speaking.After this world Cup Ghana will sit out again for another 20years without smealling it again, and will only be.watxhing eagles on TV.
So in all,the victory today is sweet,let’s build on it.
There u go again! This is the main reason why Ghana ll always beat u!
U talking about me surprised about Ghana eliminated u but it seems Nigerians has bought into this erroneous perception that their team is superior to the black stars that’s a lie!!
Bf the return leg in Abuja, I stated it here so many times that, thr Ghana team that I saw in Kumasi ll SCORE in ABUJA and this was a Ghanaian team that was assembled in freaking THREE DAYS whiles the core of the Nigerian team has been together from the afcon!
But u know what happened, GHANA STILL CAME AND SCORED A CRUCIAL AWAY GOAL!!
At least, any reasonable people should take this as a clue that, Ghana is dangerous when it comes to Nigeria but here u are pressing ur team for beating SAO lol!!
U talking about FLUKE bro? How is it a glue when Ghana has a BETTER HEAD TO HEAD against u and that GHANA has beaten Nigeria than any other COUNTRY ON EARTH and is not just once but consistently!! Why?? Can u explain this to me!
Maybe Ghana wldve struggled against any of the 4 playoffs team but certainly not against Nigeria because we know that, we beat u!!
Why didn’t osimehn scored in Kumasi? Afterall he bragged that the Ghanaian defence was scared of him so he should have scored then!!
He was totally subdued by our defense!!
Who is this stupid black monkey pls? Could you pls go back to your dirty stinking ghana.
U think ur juju can work with the white people? If u win one match at the world cup, do call me a bastard.
U BOKOM CHIMP!!
Stop telling us about ur STINKING self
U piece of shit hahha
Talking about juju in 21st century?
We have all these ANIMALS calling themselves Nigerians no wonder Nigeria is BIG FOR NOTHING!!
Even TOULET SEF IS BETTER THAN u haha
Have fun while it last, is a game of football. You are going to world cup doesn’t mean your outstanding performance is guaranteed, buh no problem any how it is you qualified ahead of Nigeria is a very great achievement according to how you see thing, how dull you are forgetting that is just a qualifier game for the major competition. You don’t celebrate qualification for year, use your brain, after qualification is preparation for the competition ode, is because Ghananians are not created like every other human being that’s why you do not have capacity to think about it, Ghananians came from sheet hole which explains the reason for their dark colours and low reasoning mentally, and always act unreasonably. Looking at a Ghananians what makes them different from the mad man on the street, the same completion no difference. Like I said is a game of football, you may not proceed to the next stage of the competition and back to AFCON we might just meet again in the nuckout stage or any stage at all. The victory may even go ether side, buh is when you know that he who laugh last, laugh best.
U just retarded!!! If Nigeria has qualified ahead of us wldnt u have celebrated it?
U simply a KNUCKLEHEAD….
The rest of comments is totally bullshit lol
Who was telling you people Calvin Bassey is the next Kalidou Koulibaly????.. shey una don finally una don see am now abi??. Dare I say he is probably even better than the big man from Senegal
Excuse the Typo this boy dey scatter pesin head!
Yes o!
All THANKS to GENERAL ROAH for giving HIM his FIRST CALL…
Guy Rest with your General Pohr matter abeg. POHRR wey still dey on Samuel Kalu matter. If Rohr was in Charge do you think the team can play like this??
@ugo and monkey post una two no go kill me with laughter. Up eagles
Let’s the honest.
If super eagles won by 10 – 0 and you are still not happy, NOTHING will ever make you happy.
Even if an exam is super easy and an open book, you can’t even score a 100/100. Celebrate a distinction and be happy for once.
The World Cup is for big boys. Black Stars!!!
@Top it, you said worldcup is for the big boys, where was your Ghana in 2018 fifa world cup in Russia. Were they little boys four years ago
It should be very clear to everyone by now that the NFF and Dare are solely responsible for the not too impressive performance of our boys against Serra Leone. The turf at MKO stadium isn’t good for football. They knew this, yet they took our boys there..I watched in agony as these boys struggled to string passes together which seems to be the new style of play under Peseiro. The Serra Leonians found it easy because they are used to such pitches back home. Why exactly do these people in authority act so carelessly? Isn’t it absurd that we literally made the stadium an home for SL, thanks to terrible pitch. I understand Dangote spent over a million dollars to put that stadium in order. And just 2 months after, everything went down the drain. Now, do you blame business organisation avoiding investing in Nigeria football knowing how careless these people can be? What of players who might start avoiding home matches due bad pitches? What exactly is wrong? Agadir isn’t Morocco’s capital. Its a regional headquarters. See how neat and well kept their pitch is, just like any pitch you’ll find in Europe. Did we all see how the team played? Did you see the joy and expression? Next time the team fails in Nigeria, we should whip the NFF and that Dsre and not the players.
I have to admit, I am not one of musa’s biggest fan but he played well today against a weak stp side. For those criticising the coach, Dessers is proper center forward like osimhen and notlike Moffi and Sadiq who can play the 8 role. Osimhen was in devastating form so there was no reason to replace him.Fans should relax and allow JP do his job.
I am particularly happy with 3 players for the display of consistency. Osimhen, Iwobi & Bassey. Iwobi particularly warms my heart, he is showing how good a player he really is. This was the guy who bosses the game against Barcelona at camp nou. I am glad he has responded to criticism in a positive way.
Something is brewing at the eagles nest, whilst GR qualified for several tourneys , let us be honest, he was never going to win anything. In leadership, who you are rubs off on the team. SE under GR was just as timid and unassured as their leader. Whilst it is still early days, the initial prognosis look promising.
Lookman seemed to have better end product than chukwueze. Ajayi has been steady but I think the handlers need to try Ndah. A center back pairing of Ndah and bassey would be solid. We need to see players like tosin kehinde, amoo,Alhassan Yusuf in our midfield. Bonke looks like the player who might miss out. We need to be on the lookout for a right back too. Felix Agu could be sounded out.
Finally, though Uzoho has not done much wrong, I am still not relaxed at the thought of him becoming SE number 1. We need to look for a dependable GK.
