Omo does that mean NO OSIMHEN, NO SUPER EAGLES?
Why can’t AWONIYI and some of those EUROPEAN FRAUD like BONIFACE and ORBAN fill in the VOID?
Omo OSIMHEN is really GREAT
After now one EWU that calls himself MAHMOUD SHAIBU and JIMMYBALL will come and be comparing AWONIYI with OSIMHEN
Those days if Yekini doesn’t rise to the occasion, omokachi, aghahowa, oliseh etc will but now it’s only OSIMHEN…
Smh…
With the abundance of quality strikers; I must say, it’s a big DISGRACE
Osimen is most likely gonna be the World best come 2024. The boy is awesome.
With the style of play pęsero have introduced to the team, they cannot play to their best potential,
The supereagles still remain favourite of the coming afcon, if pesero deploy the 4 3 3 formation, this formation have given us all our achievements since the 2000s even both youth and female teams, i dont know how eguavon and pesero came up with their 442 format.
If the supereagles play ndidi and onyeka or ndidi and rafeal onyedika behind iwobi in the midfield our team will play out any opponent, keshi won afcon with 433, siasia won all his titles for Nigeria with 433,
Amodu also won bronze with 433, rohr also adopted this 433 to qualify us to wcup and won afcon bronze, he also had a good result with brasil and Ukrain,
At this point its obvious that 442 is not working, we havnt won any important team with that format,
Beside you cant switch wingers in a 442 formation.
For us to be at our best in afcon this is the right formation,
Obasogie
aina ajayi omeruo saudi
Onyedika ndidi
Iwobi
Iheanacho osihmen boniface
Lookman(iwobi)
Iheanacho (chuks/tella)
Osimen (sadiq/orban)
Boniface(simon/isaac)
Onyedika(onyeka/yusuf)
Now if you look like the forwards in my starting line up apart from boniface the other 3(iwobi,osimen,iheanacho) they all have morethan 10 goals each for eagles you can easily rely on them for goals, boniface will add thesame value from the left wing thesame value iheanacho will bring from the right, and if osihmen frees any of them via counter, both of them can guarantee us a goal, in addition the four of the attackers carrys the highest ball sense and tecknics to brake any deffense, if they play together in few matches they will be a team to beat. I hope the coach makes use of this information.
I’ve said it before that no striker come close to Osihmen quality in super eagles. A time is coming when fans will start criticizing Boniface, that dude doesn’t know SE fans will shower critics on you with same energy they showered you love, Dude have the body and stature to bully defenders but he doesn’t know how to use it wisely. Welcome back Osihmen the Africa King
