Mujtahida: Those guys are big names in Nigeria football. They make the back pages of Nigerian dailies. I'm talking about those who don't get as much coverage as those guys. The unknowns. Therein lies your creative midfielders, I dont know why but it is very difficult for top European clubs to sign attacking midfielders from Africa. They prefer signing and developing centre backs and DMs from Africa. 1 Like |

Mujtahida: This is exactly what I mean. Even Kwado Asamoah was turned to a left-back. He used to be a very good attacking midfielder. |

Regardless of what happens at the world cup.... We know that: 1. Gernot Rohr is a coach that upholds loyalty as his motto 2. The 2018 world cup list is based firstly on Loyalty and then performance. 3. Post world cup is gonna be interesting because there wont be hiding place for the gaffer. He is currently spoiled for choice now 4. Future is bright if we are able to get a right blend of players without sentiments attached 4 Likes |

The Match should have been played in Uyo..... that's all I've got to say. I really can't blame the lackadaisical Performances of most of the Players, coz playing on a grazing Field is an arduous Task. Though Joel was poor, so was Iheanacho and Co as well. Rohr shouldn't cut the List yet, he should rather wait till after Wembley Showdown. I wanna see Joel, Agu, Simmy, Aina, Lokosa and perhaps Ajiboye for the last time, then we can come to fair Conclusions on possible Players to make the List. Had the Match played at GAIS in Uyo, it would have been easy for Rohr to decide the 25-Man List. No Player(s) has been officially dropped, all the Names People are reeling out are simply Speculations. 1 Like 1 Share |

goldfish80:It makes us short in that department. Nigeria plays attacking football. I'm not happy that this team is predominantly described as a counter attacking team. |

Oasis007: Don't act like you didn't know there were players that were bound to be dropped wether they shine or not except injury happens to the regulars. Lokosa ,Eze,Ajiboye were never gonna make the team to Russia. |

MetalJigsaw: Elénu méjì (double mouthed clown) .... At half time he wasnt sold on Simmy ... leaning more towards Lokosa. All we needed to see was that Simmy shot that rattled the crossbar like Yekini against Ahmed Shoubeir in 94 afcon for us to know the guy is a real deal. He was even clamouring for a different 9 for the 2nd half 5 Likes |

Mujtahida: That pitch they played in and video quality of the match just further highlight the shamelessness of Nigerian Football Federation. If I was the President disciplinary action must be taken. That was unacceptable in all grounds...I was enraged by the whole nonsense |

Victor Moses. Really, it’s not just one or two players. We need the right combinations. So far we’ve Had test games. we need to use our last two friendlies to see if our team is still in shape with all the regulars playing. Moses Simon will be missed at the WC. Mujtahida: |

If you are a GOtv Subscriber, tune in to SS Select 2 and see the Difference between a standard Field and a grazing Field. What makes the Game so interesting is the State of the Stadium. Cameras were positioned at the appropriate Corners for standard Coverage. Eagles should never play any Match in Portharcourt except the Pitch is fixed. I expect Ambode to do a world-class turnaround on National Stadium at Surulere before 2020. He's definitely gonna renovate the Stadium to becoming even a tourist Attractions to the World. Lagosians gonna be enjoying Eagles play live in Lagos very soon. 4 Likes |

Disciplinary action against who? Wike brought that game to PH, and Pinnick obliged without monitoring the progress of whatever was done to the pitch. An inspection should have been done 2 weeks prior to ascertain it’s state, before taking a final decision on the venue OMANBALA1: |

OMANBALA1: Apparently Eze, Lokosa and Ajiboye have slim chances respectively of making the List, but anything can happen still. I can't rule them out completely yet, coz I ain't part of the Coaching Crew. Whoever makes the List is fine by me. All I wanna see is my darling Eagles soaring higher in Russia. |

Ajagun’s name has always been on this thread.. Far more mentions than Nwakali. But does your opinion or ours change what Rohr does? Where is Agbo now? forgiveness: 1 Like |

Joebie: Then Pinnick should get a suspension. That pitch is an embarrassment to the whole nation and that is because somebody didn't do their job. |

Mujtahida: This is where the NFF's technical committee comes in. It is their job to hire a coach whose style and philosophy is consistent with the Nigerian tradition (I'm not indicting Rohr yet). One of the reasons Arsenal hired Emery came with the caviar he will play the Arsenal way. Jose Mourinho lost his job at Madrid when he played negative football which was against the traditions of Real. He could loose his job at Manchester because of this same reason. |
