Re: Nigerian Players, Coaches Battle Rohr Over ‘Poor Decisions' by Nobody: 1:20pm On Nov 16, 2020
So without a coach, they can't play good football? Super Eagle players are morons.

It Rohr invited certain players who aren't ready to play for the national team, how did they manage to score 4 goals and take the lead in the first half?

Is he not supposed to scout for the best players?

The players must be very stupid for trying to blame Rohr for their woeful performance.

Especially that Ahmed Musa that keeps running like a headless chicken or a danfo with failed breaks.

How is it that it is someone with a quarter past four eyesight that the entire north could produce to keep the team nationally balanced?

I'm sure that guy must have settled someone somewhere so as to remain in the team.

Musa is too undeveloped to be playing in the national team. He plays like Daniel James of Manchester United, high speed with no ball control, agility or skill.

Give me that team and Musa will not even appear in 6th choice.

Rubbish


Musa hater spotted grin


Oga Musa fuçk your girlfriend

While the players’ professionalism and attitude must be questioned, Rohr must also take a considerable portion of the blame.

Time and again his substitutions have proved ineffective and have too regularly appeared to cost Nigeria momentum and control in a match, rather than helping the Eagles consolidate their authority and continue to take the game to opposition.

It was as clear as day, as Friday’s match swung in the Leone Stars’ favour, that Nigeria’s midfield was labouring, yet Rohr watched on helplessly, making tweaks and cosmetic realignments, rather than fixing the gaping hole in the hear of the team.

Certainly, it can be hard to find too much logic in some of Rohr’s substitutions, and sometimes, his changes appear to be made just for the sake of it.
Why, for example, remove the influential Samuel Chukwueze, whose movement and running gave the Leone Stars something to be worried about behind their defence?

Why remove Leon Balogun for Semi Ajayi? Why introduce strikers Paul Onuachu and Kelechi Iheanacho when the midfield requires bolstering?
The substitutions themselves are problematic, as are the timings of the changes…Rohr dithers, watching on as Rome burns, when a proactive approach is required.

Then, the broader squad selection must also be questioned.

In the past, we’ve seen Nigeria setting themselves up to fail, rather than succeed, and it feels as though the same is happening again with Rohr.

Many eyebrows were raised when the German coach named four midfielders—one of whom was right-back Tyronne Ebuehi—in his squad for the double-header against the Leone Stars.

It was hard to see, without injured Wilfried Ndidi, who would offer the defensive rigour in the heart of the park, and there were always going to be a certain issue of the practicality of a Joe Aribo-Oghenkaro Etebo midfield pairing.

Unsurprisingly, both of these two problems—both very predictable—came home to roost for the Super Eagles, as the duo in the centre were targeted and ultimately overrun as the contest went on.

Why replace injured winger Moses Simon with Onuachu?
Why replace Frank Onyeka with Shehu Abdullahi?
Why invite two right-backs and then play centre-back Kevin Akpoguma in that position?
Was there no place for Ramon Azeez, Kelechi Nwakali, Mikel Agu, Uche Agbo, Anderson Esiti or Okechukwu Azubuike?

Perhaps they haven’t always impressed with the national side, but any of them should be a competent option—should Etebo tire or get injured, say—against a side ranked 120th in the world.

These are all questions, perhaps, that the NFF and Amaju Pinnick should have been asking Rohr and his team when federation officials called for a summit on Saturday morning to understand what went wrong in the 4-4 draw.

The federation also have some questions to answer, specifically about the decision to offer Rohr a new contract in May 2020—ahead of the World Cup, before the Eagles’ underwhelming performance and first-round exit at the grandest stage of all.

While Rohr’s handling of the 2018 World Cup qualifying campaign—after being drawn with 2012, 2017 and 2019 Africa Cup of Nations champions Zambia, Cameroon and Algeria—was a fine achievement for a progressive, adventurous side, the West African giants haven’t built on the promise of those years.

The coach’s desire to constantly cut the average age of the side, and oversee consistent influxes of new faces may have resulted in Nigeria being the youngest squad at the 2018 World Cup, but has it also denied the Eagles of some critical experience and calming older heads who can help the team get through difficult periods.

Introducing youth around a spine of Ndidi, John Obi Mikel and Odion Ighalo was one thing, but with the three of them absent, Rohr’s Super Eagles project may be entering it’s terminal phase.

Extract from goal.com

This is nonsense analysis, even though it is still better attempt at analysis than the moronic emotional lash out by many low IQ Nairaland "yoots".

It is still nonsense sha!

Was it not the same "influential" Chuwkueze that lost the ball while trying a trick in his own half that led to the first goal? He "influenced" the come back?

Why not remove Balogun for Ajayi? How old is Balogun? Is Balogun not just coming back from injury this year? What is wrong with removing a 33 year old, injury-prone man and replacing him with a youthful man in a 90 minutes game being played in blazing sun where players are being offered water breaks every 25 minutes?

The foooool said "why introduce strikers Paul Onuachu and Kelechi Iheanacho when the midfield requires bolstering?".

What midfielder on the bench was he hoping to bring in to bolster the midfield? Why would a coach worry that his team of experienced, highly-paid, top-league superstar players will not be able to hold a 2 or 3 goal lead against players that play in 8th tier leagues?

Why would a coach be inviting many new players to his team and will not think it is a good idea when leading a weak team by 3 goals to test out the players and different formations? What is wrong with that?

THE PLAYERS ON THE FIELD FAILED! End of!

Many idiiiiiiiots think they are football analysts, when actually dem no get sense.
