We are the real fans bro. Come rain or shine we dey. No matter who dey in charge..we dey.

You are nothing like a true fan... You think those of us here who want Rohr out aren't supporting the team? We want Rohr out because we love the team,and he is killing it...he isn't the man for the job...
Your support for Rohr clearly shows that u don't love the team....

With Victor Moses we won an ANC on his first try and totally annihilated Algeria and cameroun on the way to 2018 World Cup. Please, respect that man

So Victor Moses is the antidote for Rohr's cluelessness?

The team only needs a good playmaker that spread passes and connect the midfield with the attack from the middle and with good tactics we are good to go

Why Gernot Rohr Should Have Chosen His Words Carefully After Super Eagles Loss To The Wild Beast

To whom much is given, much is also expected in return. After losing to the wild Beast of Central African Republic, the Super Eagles Gaffer was caught putting blames on some situations that were responsible for Nigeria's loss in the FIFA 2022 World Cup qualifier, in his post match interview.

In an interview with Goal, the German tactician revealed that the Super Eagles Team missed Alex Iwobi's creativity and Wilfred Ndidi's Midfield magic. He stressed that, the absence of these key Players was no doubt part of what contributed to the loss of the vibrant Eagles, that wasted many chances in front of the wild beast's goal area.

No matter how bad a Team performed, the Manager mustn't attribute or lay claims against or to favour any Player on duty or absent during the match in question. Managers are appointed to source for and Coach Players they accept into the Team they manage or tutor.On Gernot Rohr's case, picking out Ndidi and Iwobi would certainly make other Players feel inferior, especially those he played 'in positions' to replace these 2 Players against the Wild Beast of Central African Republic. Coaches are there to manage the resources they have for a particular Match, in order to bring out the best in the Team for honour and Glory of whatever they stands for. If Rohr had won this game for Nigeria, he wouldn't have remembered to mention Iwobi and Ndidi, but his lack of focus and professional touch brought out this unprofessional statements.

The Eagles lost at the dead minute of the game, via a defensive blunder that was made possible by fatigue and Coach's inability to charge the Eagles during the dying period of the game. Part of Rohr's responsibility was to put in place defenders that could pin down a moving counter attack when his Team was on an attacking spree against the opponent but he has shown in his words that,those he put in Iwobi and Ndidi's positions were there because he never had any CHOICE, which is against his duty of sourcing for the right legs in different departments of the Team.

No Barcelona's coach has been caught directly, saying that they lost because Messi was not on the field and there was never a time any Real Madrid or Juventus' manager openly apportioned blames on the circumstance that stopped Ronaldo from featuring in the team's loss, they rather do proper analysis or avoid the press. The German Coach Could have done better than placing the 2 Players above others openly. Nigeria lost 0-1 to Central African Republic but still top the Group Table by 6 points after 3 matches.



Is Gernot Rohr saying that there are no better legs that could replace Iwobi and Ndidi in the Super Eagles team, both in Europe or in the Nigeria professional League? Maybe he's ageing and the time to leave Football is close or do you think he was right with his excuses? Follow for more Football stories.

As if you can do any better ! As head coach.

You’re the one running away from your own statement, I checked and ndidi got nothing on kante a dm Fernandinho that year.

Just agree and take the word players so what they are average at best, none of them is a superstar.

No blame coach if aina can’t cross, even if his life depended on it.

No contradict yourself oga, rohr is not top tier so are our players too.


No relevant words here. just garbage....Garbage from somebody desperate to defend failure...
If our players were so shite, they won't be playing in top tier leagues... And our sqaud won't be so highly valued...

I'm very sure you would have said the same thing of Algeria when they were on a poor run of form between 2015-2017 until they hired a more compete coach...

Nostradamus1:
Balls to tell them.


Those tactics could have worked with better execution. The plan was to use long balls and throwings to the winger to upend their low block . sadly, we didn't have people like VVD who do it for Liverpool.


We sadly forget that top team struggle to score against low blocks so u need long passes to ur forward. If it was not working , what were u expecting from Rohr to do next considering the absence of quality AM?

He did the reasonable thing by bringing in attacker who can create in Musa. That it didn't work out is not due to any RoHr tactical inefficiency

Musa is an attacker who can create? LMAO...
I've read it all..

Like it was opinioned before, anybody trying to defend Rohr will only look more stupid....

Moaning and ranting is not gonna change anything. Rohr is your coach deal with it. You have USD 1.2m to pay him for his contract termination? The team has my full support no matter who is in charge. Sunday is another day. Peace.

It isn't make believe...it is reality...

There's a team of experts all over the world that place valuation on players based on their performance and relevance... And our players are well valued... Unless you want to tell me that the people who made that valuation are the players agent...

Under no circumstances should we be losing to a team like CAR who haven't won a game in 3 f**king years!!

How are we going to fare if/when we advance to the knockout round and the World Cup with the highly incompetent Gernot Rohr still in charge. That is the main issue Mr.

So if a team decides to play with a low block, do you think it is advisable to try to break them down with long balls from the defense? grin

Wa lai, this Rohr is a comedian. cheesy

Playing long balls to a low block defense is playing to their advantage. You use long balls against teams pressing you. You use long balls to exploit gaps when a team has lost shape in their defensive third.

When a team plays a tight low block, you use intricate passing to put them in disarray, create gaps, and exploit the gaps.
All this your PES analogy. I'm yet to watch any meaningful game where the other team came to defend and not play. Its huff and puff and the last hoorah

Now, don't come at me with club games

When your midfield is thin and without any creativity? C.A.R. would repeat the same tactics they used against the Super Eagles in Lagos and might end up getting a draw . C.A R. have nothing to lose if the country loses or draws.

You watched the match right? TBH were we bad as team, as many people claim here?

My only problem is that we become disorganized close to goal when we are not counter attacking. Whenever a team parks bus against us, It becomes difficult for us to attack. I will also attribute luck here. Somehow even all with all the good crosses we had, we hardly turned one into a chance.
