Former Super Eagles star Garba Lawal says the coach of the Super Eagles of Nigeria should maintain the attacking trio of Samuel Chukwueze, Samuel Kalu and Victor Osimhen in attack when the team play against Brazil next month in Singapore.
According to Garba Lawal he loved what he saw in the trio during the 2-2 draw against Ukraine and Rohr will do well to maintain them as no team in the world will be comfortable playing against them with their combination of pace, power and skills.
Lawal specifically mentioned Chukwueze as the player he is most excited about and revealed that when he watched him against Barcelona for Villarreal, it’s clear to see that he is supremely gifted.
The attack of the Super Eagles according to Lawal is now the strength of the team with Osimhen, Kalu and Chukwueze hence Rohr should focus on the defence where he believe the team need obvious improvement.
” From the times we have played against Brazil, they are a very exciting team. At the Olympics and also in Abuja during the friendly game to open the Abuja stadium. However I think the attack of the Super Eagles has what it takes to trouble them with the way Chukwueze, Kalu and Osimhen combined against Ukraine “, Lawal told Owngoalnigeria.com.
” No defence in the world can stand the way they played in the game against Ukraine, It will be very normal for the coach to stick with them against Brazil. I watched Chukwueze against Barcelona two days back and his talent is not in doubt. Kalu can defend and attack while Osimhen is never tired of running to get a chance at goal.
” I think the attack of the Super Eagles is safe with the three of them, so if I am Gernot Rohr I will focus more on the defence where it’s obvious there is still some work to be done judging by how they let slip a two goal lead against Ukraine “.
