They expressed the views after the Super Eagles drew 2-2 with Scotland in an intentional friendly match in London.
The supporters, who turned out en mass, trekked for about a kilometre from the underground station to the Craven cottage ground of Fulham Stadium, singing and applauding the world cup bound team.
Some of those who spoke to the Europe Correspondent of the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN), were unanimous in their commendation for the team, which they described as "a reformed brand".
They, however, called on the Eagles' handlers to organize more training and strengthen their tactics, to enable the team to emerged victorious in its group.
Mr Chinedu Mba, a spectator, said: "I am impressed by the boys; they played well but need to do more."
Also Mr Ojo Aderemi said: "Scotland almost dominated the match but when international based players like Osaze Odemwingi and Victor Moses joined the game in the second half, they changed the rhythm dramatically."
Similarly, Dr Rose Anya said "the selection of players was in order; you can not field key players and risk them being injured; this is just a friendly match; Nigeria is World Cup bound but Scotland is not."
Others who also voiced their opinion, said that with the current pattern and their form, the Super Eagles would gradually return to its past glory.
The match was part of their build-up to the June tournament in Brazil
