Akpeyi will remain first choice for now in Rohr's eyes.
Apart from Mikel, Ogu has to be the best passer among our CMs. Sure he's not quick, but he can dictate play from deep better than Onazi or Ndidi. He should've played against SA.

me to just close eye on dat1
he better as a lwf nd i would pick him ahead of musa nd iwobi(sub)....
I still av d feeling rohr would start musa.......

AndreTAyodeji:
Rohr does not see Etebo as a LWF and he will always use him in the midfield.However,Musa starting is not a problem and me myself will start him ahead of Moses Simon because Musa is a goal threat and we need goals in the game and not needless dribbling with no good final balls.According to respected journalist Colin Udoh,Moses Simon started ahead of Musa in the S.A game because Musa was fasting and might get tired easily because he is always running.

I don't think Rohr will drop Onazi for Ogu.Our Mid-field pairing has been Onazi-Mikel for years.They understand each other and few days of camping can't change that.I would rather prefer Ogu -Ndidi but let's face reality .Ogu might start from the bench likewise Ndidi.The time is too short for experiments.The probability that the new invitees and Ighalo will start from the bench is very high.I don't think Rohr will repeat his mistake with Awaziem.

obviously you haven't been following the debate no one here is saying ezenwa is the reincarnation Buffon, Thomas Nkono, Peter scmiechel rolled into one. All we have been saying is that ezenwa is the better of the two bad options. To put it simply if hunger dey wire you and your only options are drinking garri or eating one packet of cabin biscuit. No one will tell you to drink the garri so in this case ezenwa is the garri we want to soak and manage

Icon4s:


Ndidi will start the game.

Geestunnar:

lovely!!

I would like to see this formation in play!

Icon4s:


This turn around just because of the Benin game.

Famocious:


Lovely formation but I would have preferred Iwobi at the CF instead of Kelechi..
Kelechi can come in as a substitute in the second half.

But it is okay repeating the same mistakes with Echiejile, Onazi and Akpeyi.

listening to Anthony nwakeme live on brilla FM now, he said john ogu spoke to rohr about him and then rohr called him few weeks ago and told him to keep doing well till he got a call up.
says he is up to the task if given the chance and the opposition's jam body won't bother him having played for years in ajegunle.
