The duo of Bassey and Ndidi are some of the weakest link in the Super Eagles squad, causing Eagles to lose cheap goals. Ndidi should be replaced by either Onyeka or Raphael Onyedika, whilst Bassey can be replaced at the back by Gabriel Osho, or Ajayi or both with Ekong in a 3 man wall of Defense. Ndidi is now a shadow of himself and can’t even score a single goal since he has been in the squad for over 6 years.
I agree with you…. Ndidi is a far cry from that guy that was racking up interception stats a few years back. In Bassey’s case, I can say he is not the best defender we have out there, his calamities always cost us big time. I hope the new coach can find capable replacements that can match the starting 11….these players need to understand that their positions are not theirs permanently but I still blame NFF for everything. these set are the most irresponsible Football administrators I’ve ever seen,
Footballfanatic, you are a confused individual, you should remove football from your name and call yourself gidigbofanatic or weedfanatic because the weed you are smoking is too strong for your weak mind to handle.
Please, mention ONE TIME! Just ONE TIME only in recent memory that you know of when Bassey’s error cost the team as your pangolo head is claiming, please enlighten this forum – you idiots should not come here make strange claims that you can NEVER back up! Another MUMU man!
Well you are talking like a lunatic or someone who has not been watching recent Super Eagles matches. WCQ match day 4 against Rohr’s Benin Republic, Bassey gifted Benin attacker their equalising goal in Ivory coast, when Nigeria through Onyedika was leading 1-0. He made a senseless, unnecessary back pass to goal keeper Nwabali, to Benin midfielder to score. He was also complicit in defensive errors that gave Benin their second goal to win Nigeria 2-1 putting Nigeria in precarious condition to qualify for USA 2026 WC.
He has been all over the place committing school boy errors and but for Ekong and Nwabali’s quick interventions would have cost us against Benin and Libya in recent Afcon qualifiers.
I can tell that you were born of lunatic parents…. I did not insult anyone here, but you come with these abuses and insults…. E no go better for your generation. You obviously didn’t watch the Benin game where we lost to them away….Finidi had to switch his position cuz Rohr had figured him out…. The only thing saving that defence is the 5 man defence we play sometimes. Rather than state facts you come here to expose how your weed addicted parents raised a delinquent bastard who should be languishing in kirikiri. Oloshi oloriburuku individual.
Yeah, no point going back and forth with a lunatic lol……You are obviously having a bad day. Good luck with your wretched family lol…under yaba? thank God you don’t know the location of me and my family, you can assume all u want with such a disturbed mind.
There’s a difference between Addict and a Fanatic. You obviously don’t know the difference lol oriburuku. You don chop this afternoon? Last reply for a waste of sperm like you.
Tony K, You are a mumu man If in your own mind Bassey and Ndidi are the weakest link in the Eagles, an Eagles where the likes of Iheanacho and Iwobi are catching cruise and doind nothing but letting the side down, and in your own mugu head you are voting for Bassey, who is very young and will improve a lot in years to come and Ndidi, who’s experience in the midfield will become even more and more crucial. You people need to stop commenting on football because your comments are dross.
Iheanacho needs to just retire…..E pass weak link lol.
the weak link in eagles are bassy ndidi iwobi ihaenacho.,these are minus 4 guys in a team of 11 , u can see that super eagles have been playing only 6 players and 1 keeper for the last match days .
I even said good home base players that can drink fowl blood shud tske their spot . Reason y dey conceded easy goals in 90 mins game
Guys like simon lukeman chueze oshimen osayi onyeka ndar ekong nwaball with 12 good guys from chan list will beat any team .
