NO Man this team has bags of talent. and the consolation for me it that our game changers all 3 of them and a very influential Peter etebo were missing. also Rohr should realise that You have to play Ola Aina He must not unsettle the boy. Zadiu Sanusi is a very good player indeed and so is Chidera Ejuke for me they can keep their place. Chidera over Musa any day any time. Akpoguma should be given more time to he can bring something to this team as back up to what we have. Dessers can playe back up to Osimhen and Iheanacho. so for me
Sanusi
Dessers
Akpoguma
Ejuke
These are the boys that can keep their place the rest will fall away when regulars are fit.
Check this out:
Okoye
Tyronne. Akpo. Leon. Zaidu.
Ndidi.
(Etebo)Ejaria. Aribo.
Iheanacho. Iwobi.
Osimhem
@Sportfan that is a strong line up indeed and I am in no doubt that it would have destroyed Algeria no doubt. i could tinkle with it but there is no need because even if Chukwueze comes in as a impact player in second half or starts it is still strong.
I would start Aina or Ebuehi or even Ekong or Akpo either way your line up would have easily dismantled Algeria had all been fit. Kudos bro!!!.
p.s I was Impressed by Chidera Ejuke he has a lot of talent. We are also blessed to have Semi Ajayi the boy is good and will go places
