i didnt wtach the match but i sense rohr is trying to hide his weapons(formation and key players) and keep our rivals in the group guessing.i wont be surprised if rohr comes up with different players in their favored positions against croatia. its now evident the team plays better with more intensity with 3 at the back. i see rohr deploying the midfield trio of ndidi(defensive midfielder),mikel(central midfielder)and iwobi(attacking midfield) against the crots. also any of moses and ebuehi can start as righ-twing back/left-wing back. iheanacho may peep ighalo for the striking role where iwobi will be instructed to play behind him as a false 9,the trio of ogu/omeruo, ekong and balogun will be the central defenders. musa and any of simy/ighalo may be impact subs. friendlies are mere preparatory games to fine tune the formation of a team and also to see how best players perform during competitive matches.

i hail you. Let’s hope for the best but rohr should stop playing politic with the team tactic and lineup. I just wanna see that second half Lineup against Argentina friendly again. That’s the recipe to our doing well in Russia. The point is too simple!!

Leicester's 5000/1 EPL win odds in 2015/2016 says hello....

thats why I said u should check the odds and probability of Nigeria pulling a Leicester..

Fellow Eagulians.

I assure you all - we gonna see a different Eagle at the Mundial. We are able to keep our Tactics away from the Oppositions.

The Oppositions are as confused as the Fans. They don't know what's gonna happen at the Mundial, kinda difficult for the Scouts spying on us to analyze the Team credibly.

Kudos to Rohr, and I'm kinda satisfied with the 2nd Half Display.

O PARI (In Icon79's voice)

Oasis007:




So when the Team is transiting to Attack, you expect him to sit deep like a Log of Wood?!

He's shielding the Defence at Leceister, and he's doing it excellently.

3 at the back remember.
All that would be left is Mikel, who we all know never fulfilled his potential because he was playing in a DM position he HATES/can't play.
Every team in our group has INSANELY deep attacking midfields.
If Ndidi leaves his position in a 3 man defense system we'd get slaughtered.

Martz101:


some how I'm happy for this results...the team will be underrated by Croatia.

i still have high hope on the team, we will fly in russia

You are saying the bolded to console yourself. Unlike many of us fair weather fans who have lowered their expectations of this team Croatia will not lower their expectations, Croatia will not underrate this team.

Don't try to run away from this pain, from the pains of this losses. Let it seep into your veins, into your heart. It will heal you and clarify your vision. If you try to escape from it you will give yourself false hopes just like the bolded.

Expect Nigeria to raise her game. Shikena and I trust that they will!

Soareagles! Like Truidstar once said 'ride or die baby, I'm with you!'

Unlimited22:
I don't understand. What's there to forgive?

Hahaha, e don do abeg.
Let's forge ahead jare

forgiveness:


If Croatia think this is the team they will face and have a work over, Rohr has just deceived them.

I can see what Rohr is doing although.....

What is Rohr doing?

Ighalo should not start, mosses also in a 3-5-2, they are both useless in that formation.

Our line-up should be;

Troost- Balogun- Ogu

Moses mikel ndidi Ebuehi

Iwobi

Iheanacho Ighalo

goldfish80:
What is Rohr doing?

He is cooking a kind of food that the Croats cannot eat.

austenite:
The coach is making some tactical mistakes,iwobi shouldn't have played deeper owing to the fact that he is more creative than Mikel. Moses should be benched his impact is zero. Shehu should be relegated to the bench for ebuehi. Finally, Mikel obi offers nothing to this team.

Iwobi is more creative than Mikel? Abajo.

From the wings to the center to the very place where Mikel was enthroned. Is it time to crown Alexander? Is it time for him to wear the royal robe?

Oya oo Martz101 come, let me hear your views.

Well there's no sugar coating it this run of poor results is not good for the confidence. I won't lie my expectation of us having a decent tournaments has taken a big hit but come rain come sunshine I'm behind this team 100%

The coaching crew has even more serious work to do no more room for failure we just have to deliver next time or we are out.

Speaking realistically if we cannot beat the croatians then we should try and get a draw and work from there

Let's go super eagles

Perhaps I should have used hope. Thanks.

Oasis007:


Guess our Eyes are clear now....... that Iwobi is a monumental Waste on the Wing?! Our problem is very simple to solve;

A - Play 3 - 4 - 1 - 2 Formation.

B - start Ebuehi as a RWB not Shehu

C - Play Moses as LWB, I've seen him played there at Chelsea more than once.

D - play a Pivot of Ndidi and Mikel as DMs - Ndidi doing the Tackles and Interceptions while Mikel plays as a deep-lying Playmaker.

E - Play Iwobi as a No. 10.

F - Pair Ighalo and Iheanacho upfront - Ighalo will play more inside the Box, while Iheanacho plays as SS, combining with Iwobi to dig out positive Results.

G - I prefer Trio of Omeruo, Balogun and Ekong as CBs in a 3 at the back Formation. I do not trust Ogu with the CB Responsibilities.

We get coaches here ooo. That's all I can say. Impressive.

Mr Mujtahida no be false hope, we will go far in the worldcup

Gbam!

safarigirl:
this is the only real positive I'm taking away

That someone is going to feel like we don't offer much and may decide to not take us too seriously, only to be shocked on match day the way Algeria was shocked

Hahahaha hahahaha hahahaha. Under rate? Croatia under rate us? Lie lie. So if it's you, you will underrate Nigeria

Okay, how many matches did Croatia win of all their friendlies? I don't think they won one. Granted they have more quality than us but then ordinarily would you under rate them cos of the losses?

Their first match, Croatia go come under rate us? Hahahaha hahahaha.

Martz101:


Mr Mujtahida no be false hope, we will go far in the worldcup

Seems you didn't understand what I wrote. For you to say Croatia will underrate us is to give yourself false hope. If we walk into the match thinking the way you have depicted we will fail and the reason is simple:we will fail to raise our game because we have padded ourselves with the false believe that Croatia will underrate us. So what if they don't?

That's why I said that your view that they will underrate and therefore that would enable us win is nothing but a false hope.

Martz101:


Mr Mujtahida no be false hope, we will go far in the worldcup

Amen.
Because I hope, yet am not hopeful.

LOL, when they go dey find points knowing say Iceland dey super-organised and Argentina pass them?
Underrated ko, superlative ni

It is funny that this game has even given me more confidence in the team. The second half the way the passes were strung up, we have to remember that this is a friendly game that is used to get the players to practice playing together certain things that they have being doing in practice in live ball situations. Play with players they normally do not play with during practice. Now the coach should have an idea of who plays well with who and what roles each player will play. Now the real practice and work begins.

The confidence Uzoho is getting is also a factor... Ndidi has fully recovered.

I just the pity the amount of folks here probably my dad's age who are saying Rohr is deceiving his opponents!!SMH

I see y'all are drunk in Delusional realm and only a 0-5 lose to Croatia will wake una up
WackTeam with Wack drunk supporters !!!

Abeg ,France till forever #vouslavous
