'Dissecting' SLNA's foreign players: When will there be a breakthrough?

(Baonghean.vn) - After the first 3 matches of V.League 2020, only center-back Gustavo Santos satisfied Nghe An football fans.

Witnessing the performance of the striker duo Peter Onyekachi - Alagie Sosseh in recent matches, especially in the match against SHB Da Nang (1 - 0), on June 6, experts and football fans of Nghe An are feeling extremely disappointed. They play like amateur players, despite receiving salaries in foreign currency.

Instead of shouldering the attack, Peter Onyekachi and Alagie Sosseh have become a burden for their teammates, domestic players, and even young players. The proof is that up to now, the two foreign players mentioned above have not had a single goal or assist for the Vinh team. That is also the reason why SLNA is one of the teams with the least effective attack in V.League 2020 (2 goals).

Objectively speaking, Peter Onyekachi played very energetically, with the ability to sweep and stir up quite well. However, the Nigerian striker passed the ball and finished very poorly. Many good situations were missed by the player wearing the number 22 shirt in a very regrettable way. A typical situation occurred in the 70th minute, when Peter Onyekachi kicked the ball out after a very quick sprint to face goalkeeper Nguyen Tuan Manh.

However, Peter Onyekachi still left some impression with his aggressiveness, unlike the case of Alagie Sosseh, one of SLNA's worst foreign players ever.

Clumsy, slow and harmless are all the qualities that the player wearing the number 9 shirt has shown. Apart from his long hair and massive body (1m88 tall, 91kg), Alagie Sosseh has no more points than the domestic players that coach Ngo Quang Truong currently owns.

It is time for the SLNA coaching board to decide to terminate the contract or put Alagie Sosseh on the bench, to give opportunities to promising young players like Tran Dinh Tien, Tran Ngoc Anh... If they continue to put their trust in Alagie Sosseh, it is like the Nghe An team is playing with a handicap. Patience without limits can easily lead to a situation of "losing money and getting sick".

I wonder when the Vinh stadium stands will stop letting out sighs of boredom every time the home team's foreign players touch the ball?
