Oya which aspect. Abi you are part of the "Ndidi cannot pass" crew

Longest time, this adult life no be am at all

Hope you're good.

I dey see your threads steady. Well done

elunico:


You don't know Rohr. Ever since Ebuehi's injury he seems to have lose trust in him. He'd even play Awaziem or Shehu in his place of we're playing a serious match.

safarigirl:
So, we had Okoye man the post against Benin, and Uzoho man the post against Lesotho, with both goalies keeping clean sheets.

First of all, I am glad we have risen from the ashes of Akpeyi and Ezenwa, but I would genuinely like to know what you guys think of both players and the possibility of rotation between them.

Bear in mind, when I say 'rotation', I don't mean the way Enyeama and Ejide were rotated, but something with a little more equity. I genuinely feel like Ejide was shortchanged a lot in the team, because of Enyeama's brilliance, so, while I acknowledge how much of a legend Vincent is, I do feel a bit for Ejide.

So guys, what's your take on the Maduka-Uzoho GK rotation? If you can include their performances in the last two games in your analysis, factor their strengths and weaknesses, it would also be appreciated.

Lmao. Benin dey vex because Sierra Leone is paying them back in their own coin

Oasis001:




This Thread sha. I keep seeing posts rating Ebuehi ahead of Aina and I wonder if I watched a different Match. I didn't see anything spectacular in his Play, but trust Dudes to exaggerate.

Onuachu was cussed to hell, two Goals in 2 Matches this Week no be Beans.

Olulong:


The reason he had those chances in the first place was because of his press and him getting into good positions

Oasis001:




Ebuehi is a solid Player, no doubt. Having two solid RBs is healthy for the Squad. Really hope Collins can step up to challenging Zanusi as well.

We don't need to condemn or bring down any of them. So cool Uzoho and Maduka are challenging as well. We need solid Squad, we are not there yet, slowly but surely we'll get there.

Chuks didn't have a good game, but he's immune to Criticism. Nacho didn't have a good Game either, but I see some Posts blaming Iwobi..... LOL!

Firstly, i Welcome you back to the crew.
Really missed that Safargirl's kind of view in discussions and argument.

Well, for the two goalies, Rohr and his team have really don a good job in managing to groom these two goalies for Nigeria.

Excellent that they both kept clean sheets, even though I owe it partly to they not really being much tested in both encounters.

On the issue of their rotation, you cannot have equity if both goalies are in form and are available for selection. You must have a "number 1". The other would then serve as a backup. Goal keepers generally get better with Experience and age. And so it is better to identify the "number 1" and give him more of the game time.
Take a major tournament like a WC or AFCON for instance you don't Present a different goalie for each game. The first choice goalie keeps goal for 70% to 100% of the matches in that tournament.

So, it is normal for the first choice goalie to be more regular in goal than the second choice.

Subzero047:


Ebuehi is already a starter, the thing with Rohr is if you lose your spot you will find it hard to take it back and with Ebuehi's consistency in club performances he has already nailed the right back spot

What do you people have to say about the pitch, I mean the turf

isan:
CAF should be conducting this test or at least their officials should be present when the test is being conducted

nairalandankrah:
Victor osimhen was involved in 11 of the 14 goals scored by Nigeria during the Afcon2021q (5®6)

JayromWrites:
Paul's gameplay is suspect I swear


If not for the goal, he would have had a bad game

Certainly not someone I will like to lead the line for Nigeria from the start

He scored a nice goal though

Gammfreak:
In my own decision ..
Via Ebuehi vs aina:.
If the game plan is to score more goals going forward, ebuehi is better going forward.
If the game plan is to defend fully, aina myt be better

That coach is literally below average. 3-0 against Lesotho means nothing.

andrewbaba44:

Well sadiq was never a better player than him

Olulong:


Yeah. I think I'll agree

Osimhen is probably more complete. Either ways. It's good for us having guys who can offer different things

Sainty92:
Apart from the goal, Someone that barely played 15mins in a game that was devoid of creative spark to attackers had a bad game? Dude he just played 15mins and he even scored with his only chance. Just say u don't fancy him

elunico:
I can tune down my criticism of Onuachu a little now. 2 goals in 2 games, that's impressive. I won't raise any eyebrows if he's included in the team's list going forward.


Musa - the non playing invitee. Rohr de craze.
