TheSuperNerd:
Of course, our problem is not Ighalo. It has never been Ighalo. But I insist we need an upgrade in that CF dept once this Afcon is done.

The Problem is Rohr's understanding of the players' strengths and weaknesses. He lacks the know-how, insight, bravery, inventiveness and Innovativeness on how to mastermind this fine pool of super talents he has gathered and make a Mega-force outta them.

Father Tiko and Otto Gloria from ages past will salivate at the plethora of attacking options we have because those guys were attacking masterminds. If Klopp came down to Africa and was asked to coach a team from among Senegal, Egypt or Nigeria. I can bet you he will choose the Super Eagles because it takes a coach like that to see visions of attacking wonders and offensive masterpieces that Nigeria's pool can achieve compared to Senegal's and Egypt's. Mane and Salah may be Klopp's players but Klopp will most likely go for Nigeria because of our wicked offensive deep pool.

Rohr lacks this Vision and foresight Klopp and his likes has when it comes to utilizing attacking pools of players. He doesn't know what to do with these talents that is why he always starts the ones that suits his conservative bull crap only getting it right in a few other roles as he doesn't have any choice but to start those ones.





Like I told you on my return... I recall I said something akin to....

"I don't know if we would win the Afcon but we have the quality. BUT THE KEYS ARE IN ROHR'S HANDS."

I know why I said that. Having all the quality is not what will give us success in Egypt. It is how Rohr handles the quality. Rohr is the man on who our 4th Afcon title hopes rises and falls.

Our problem lie in the man, Rohr and his perception of the team.



All your points are well noted.

naturecures:
super eagles were simply lucky to have defeated Guinea. Guinea 1 -Burundi 0
we would have carried calculators tonight. shioor

Danielnino00:
Contrary to what some folks here are saying, we won't be facing Egypt in the round of 16 .. Its the runner up in group F we will face... any of the 4 teams in that group can still finish 2nd ..

soetanoreoluwa:
Who are we playing next?

mostob:
at least it takes a Dullard to recognise a dull thought.... lol

fabyom:
So peeps are getting emotional over nothing.
We lost, so what?
I could vividly recall AFCON 2013.
We were to meet the Ivorians and so many peeps were shouting we cannot beat them upanda.
2004 against Cameroon, aahh Eto will destroy us!
What happened afterwards.

I don't deal with pessimist and kids.
Those of us that has been following soccer for 30+ years knows what the name Super Eagles can do.
What's all the wailing and gnashing of teeth for.

Our first team didn't start the match today.
We defeated the Guineas that topped the Ivorians during qualifiers.
So please don't mention silly ivory coast here.

ykalhaji:
So the Madagascar coach is better than our own Rohr... Lol. Na Egypt we go face next, we should be prepared for some serious ojoro against us in that game.

Curtisaxel7:
For a whiteman, Rohr is surprisingly stupid.

mostob:
you are right, ..I just dey vex throughout the match ....he can't press, he can't outmuscle, he can't dribble, ..na to dey fall him sabi.

Problemkid1:
I don't like that man statics since from WC during Nigeria vs Argentina.

Goke7:


His wife is from Madagascar, rohr should be probed

pelezico:
Please tell me if theres something not quite right with this.

The NFF trying to lift the SE up

forgiveness:


Exactly! When a team parks the bus, all you need is a good crosser of ball and a players that can use their head to score.

pelezico:


Well hes not stupid - we Nigerians are stupid because we keep thinking that whitey will do his majik and poof - we win the AFCON or WC. Na mate hes smart cause hes on vocation in Nigeria and retired but milking the NFF for his pension

BascoVanVeli:
Too many changes. Sentiments will kill this team. Leon Balogun has made that mistake before but people overlooked time and time again. Algeria, Libya and now.

Btw I hope this next opinion kills some people but the key to unlocking a park the bus team was dropped. Kelechi Iheanacho is the only one who could shoot from outside the box everyone else just kick's and pray.

somehow:
Rohr is an average coach.

Not tactical

Can't read games

And a bad decision maker.

This game further exposed him.

DrLikita12:


I feel like this tournament will probably determine Rohr's future in relation to the SEs.

Mickael2:


No bro, you need to stretch the team. Crossing the ball will just play into the hands of the defending team.

TheSuperNerd:
TheGoodJoe is even captain of this team. He is with us. Mickael2 is also in this camp. Truly Rohr will not take us to the promised Land.

I know his positives and I have praised it severally...BUT... He is not just brave enough and inventive enough to make the best use of the rise of another golden pool of young super talents in Nigerian football.

I have given the man time. He is not our Joshua.

darkelf:


We can all shout and wail here but even if we loose out in the round of 16, NFF won't sack Rohr. This guy I'm seeing here doesn't think the coach is the problem

AIG07:
you can say that all over again!

I don't know why our people are been conservative with the truth.

Well, me o. I'm not impressed one bit about this man called Rohr and his results. The truth of the matter is that we are not progressing as a team. One needs to separate RESULTS from PROGRESS.

I watched Holland play yesterday and I marveled. They are rebuilding after they missed out in this year's world cup. Their new team is less than 2years (post Robben Era) but it is more obvious that they are on the rise. Sense of purpose in their play, clear cut pattern of football, the boys are getting better with each match. They defeated the World Champions yesterday with a team with average players just like ours(cos Aside Van dyke others are just average too). They qualified from a group that has Germany and France.

But ask these Rohr's defenders that aside qualification for the World Cup and AFCON what else can we say about his team.
No improvement in pattern of playe. No winning mentality in the boys. Na to de experiment up and down.

A lowly SA are even calling us their rivals. What an insult! We went out against them today seeking for a draw. It's like Wales calling Germany their football rival.

Something needs to be done asap. Else we will just waste this pool of talent at our disposal. It's so sad.

Mickael2:


I think Paul Aigbogun should be appointed

I've just seen someone on Cybereagles say the reason why we lost is because the players weren't paid yet.
