Secondly I'd like to start from those ppl accusing forgiveness of tribalism... Please let's stop it. He has d right to cry, wail, or say whatever he wants, d best we can do is ignore the posts that he makes to avoid any rancor...
Den to those supporting forgiveness, pls let's do so without taking sides. Forgiveness myt be d victim here but he is not without fault especially on this matter..
Then to chief egbon forgiveness... Pls sir na only a selfish ND stupid woman go wan win argument at all cost to the point say she no mind weda her marriage scatter.. ...in ur quest to defend kayode's honor ND ryt u have called rohr's list corrupt, u have turned forumites against one anoda, u have directly or indirectly run down some players ND d team with small small swipes.... Please the reward or satisfaction u are seeking is not worth the unity of d thread.... Kayode is a good player ND he has done well I admit and am sure u only want things to be fair, but we know that life is not fair to all, kelechi is lucky because he is an integral part of nigeria's squad cos he has proven overtime dat immediately he wears d nigerian jersey his club performance doesn't relate... Hence his goal returns for Nigeria.... Kayode has been good but I feel that luck has not rili been on his side as it is obvious that he is not the kind of player rohr fancies... Now u must realise that the coach must not invite players that u like but the ones he believes can add something using his style of play... So like everyone has said at some point...

Dunga played as a defender. I wonder why they put him in midfield. That spot should go to Emmanuel Petit who as far as I am concerned was the best passer in that competition.

dunga was a defensive midfielder not a defender

Gernot Rohr on the call for Nwakali:

“You cannot say that we should take some players after the holiday match against Atletico. They came with a second team and the plan was to see them for the future. I have no regrets with my selection.

“My real regret is that people talk about players not on the list than those on the list. This is not fair as we have many interesting players on that team as well”,

Martz101:


you are right but his suppprt for certain players from some tribe and hatred for some from other tribe don't say good about him.

TheGoodJoe:


Just did some search and this image of the tactical analysis will highlight what I mean by Dunga playing so deep that I took him as a defender.

Tell me why I should not love and respect this man.

When some people here even stated that the Team B are better than Team A.

Some people here have mentioned Kayode and Nwakali, 2 players not on the list, more than any player on the list.

Respect Baba Rohr

OMANBALA1:


Rohr doesnt have that typical Nigerian arrogance found in most of our coaches. Its obvious he is very wise with his choice of words,body language and players management. Everything nobi gragra

Humility017:

hope I am not among those people...senior man?

charlesemeka85:
THIS KID SHOULD BE IN LA MASIA. 9JA GOT TALENT,DAMN!

Mujtahida:

He appears to be wise. If he just gets his tactics right, substitutions right, and the team plays with determination and guts forget this talk that we are average- we will do well. That's my hope and expectation.

I don't know oo but I swear to God even if Nigeria is playing against the best team in the world I always expect that we'd win. Maybe it has to do with me starting out as a fan during the 94 set when we played robust football. I can't help it. Even if na Brazil we playing I always start out believing we will win no matter the odds.

kennysville:



The boy shd be in our u-15 but i am suspecting he will be a threat to Lateef Omidiji..... make una no roast me O! I love lateef too

TheGoodJoe:


Dunga played as a defender. I wonder why they put him in midfield. That spot should go to Emmanuel Petit who as far as I am concerned was the best passer in that competition.

TheSuperNerd:
Uhmmm... Shahktar is actually a top club in Europe... They are no. 15 or 14 I believe right? Not sure... But definitely in top 20. I only will like Kayode's stay there because of the UCL. I even said so to you earlier on this convo remember? That I will love Kayode to play UCL football.

I have no issues with Shahktar. I only have issues with rhe league's quality. A player of his talent based on what I have noticed having followed him over the years deserve a place in one of the big 5 of Europe. And I sincerely hope Ukraine is a huge stepping stone to that level.

So it is not about Shahktar the club....nope... It is about the league Ukraine. I want Kayode in a Big 5.

The good Lord bless you my brother for this post and congrats on your wedding

Please can you post your wedding IV here? or through any other means.

I would like to attend as I will be in Warri that same weekend.

Humility017:

Mujtahida:

Hahahaha hahahaha. You know yourself na. Truth is we have good supply of talents. If we have consistency in footballing philosophy we will harness what we have and become a great team but sack and replacement of coaches will not help us.

If these current team fails to go past the first round do you think it's good enough justification for Rohr to be sacked?

Anyway NFF gave him contract extension.

Humility017:

the man should be retained.
he is a good coach...the kind of coach we have been longing for... though he may not be too tactical but very discplined and a good man manager.

Good to promote good player and Nwakili performance against Atletico was awesome,honestly you are not sentimental cos if i have my way i will include the young man based on Atletico match in our provisional WC list but on club performance no way.

Goid for him to keep on developing cos his future is bright.

Mujtahida:

That is not the first time Mikel is saying such things about Rohr. During the WCQ he said the same thing.
