Our field texture can never allow our super eagles players replicate their European form, improve the facilities or these home based African teams would keep humiliating us in important games.

Why are always taking Super Eagles matches to Abuja? Personal interest sha! Lagos Stadium can't be this empty. Shame!

Super Eagles players are the architect of their own downfall in today’s game. Everybody wants to be the star, nobody wants to play the pass to the next player with a better chance to shoot.

So INEC allowed our Super eagles of Nigeria to lose at our home ground.

Peseiro: Best buddies with Mourinho
Who's next? Klopp's room mate in high school?
The Super Eagles have now lost four games in a row - scoring only one goal and conceding nine in that run.

Very embarrassing record.
Coach Jose Peseiro is struggling to get it right with the Nigeria national team. #NGAGNB
A loss for Nigeria in Abuja.

Nigeria 0-1 Guinea-Bissau.
Key points:
*Peseiro is not the way forward
*Why did Iwobi play deep?
*I can’t remember the last time Chukwueze had a good game for Nigeria.
*Our defenders need to step up.
*We lack creative midfielders. pic.twitter.com/3wd4QPd7Z4
