Lol... See how all the predictions enter bush









No wonder Alabi always gets richer

charlesemeka85:
this signifies that you are bereft of tactical prowess and discipline. bringing in onuachu for ighalo against cameroon was a tactical move which will help the team to defend aerial threats and free kicks from the taller Cameroonians which seem to be their only resort during the tail end of the game. that was the same reason iwobi who was the team's creatives spark in the middle was subbed for balogun.later u go say u sabi football

Truidstar:


Are you sure this is darkelf? Your comments make sense today.

TheGoodJoe:


Oga Sir, please, abeg, chill.

Bonfrere Jo, Willy Bazuaye and Musa Abdullahi were not shouting at refs and players when we won the Atlanta 96 Olympics gold medal in football.

Pellegrini is very gentle on the touchline and delivered brilliant results throughout his career. Sarri is also calm to a point. Same with Allegri.

Finito.

I like my forwards to be TALL, CLINICAL, SKILLFUL, UNPREDICTABLE, POWERFUL WITH BLISTERING PACE i love it when they DEMOLISH the opposition.

For example Lukaku, Balotelli, or going into the past Yekini .

NUFF SAID

ChrisKels:


Osimhen is fitter than Tammy Abraham. Now I know why Tammy has always failed in the Epl

charlesemeka85:
oga there is sense in what the man said. for christ sake oshimeh is just 20 and feather weight. in african footie he will be easily muscled. he is still a young chap who is still growing and will bulk up as he matures.

i bet you that oshimeh will be easily manhandled if he is deployed as a lone striker. the madagascar match was a good fixture to test him and onyekuru but things went south in the early minutes of the game and got worst in the 2nd stanza which made the coaching crew to throw in players they believed would have atleast salvaged a point.

oshimeh and onyekuru are one for the future and the but interesting thing is they are part of the team. for rohr to take both to the competition meas he rates them high

TheGoodJoe:


Why must we deploy Osimhen as a lone striker. The point has been play with an offensive set up with two forwards supporting him. Play with pace and intensity.

Rohr most times want to sit back and wants his striker fighting defenders with jam body tactics. That is why I said Neymar won't thrive. Same with a player like Suarez.

That is why I do not like Osimhen working with him because of his mechanic tactics.

Finito.

tbaba1234:
Rohr on Osimhen and Onyekuru:

"Onyekuru and Osimhen are young and they are here to learn. Musa and Ighalo are experienced so they are the ones to start. For Onyekuru, he has to first fight with Simon and Chukwueze for a position and then maybe for the central position. For Osimhen, he has to be stronger. In training, any touch he falls down. So I tell him to be strong"

chrisooblog:
i'm a big fan of mathematical but this is wrong especially at this time when we are in the thick of competition. ok what if rohr coaches the team to victory what will he now say?

everyone has different temperaments and coaching styles if big Seg were a coach he would know this

jihday:
Top Drog was pacy tall and strong, his strength was one of his key attributes and helped him bully defenders in the epl. Rhor wanting osimhen to be strong is for his own good, imagine Osimhen against that Senegal defender who plays for Napoli that one go pocket am na

charlesemeka85:
hahahahahahaha! ighalo have distinguished himself in robust and physical leagues like the championship and the epl so there is no way you can compare oshimeh to ighy. with all due respect the belgian league is a good enough league for upcoming talents but as a player you will only be taken serious if you move to perform in tougher leagues.

rohr at this stage of the competition will never try such gamble to start an oshimeh when there is a lot at stake and if he tries such you guys will reap him apart if it backfires. i have nothing against oshimeh but to be sincere he wont be a handful for defenders in the african terrain for now.

if inconsistency should be determined with ighalo's form in the national team for the past one year then i prefer deploying inconsistent strikers if i were to be rohr

darkelf:


I am also been realistic too.

Ighalo playing almost 90 min every game and then bringing in Onuachu all the time while not giving Osimhen a chance to come off the bench in't helping his career. Same with Onyekuru. These guys deserve at least 15mins/match due to their club form

Reality Check he dies not deserve anything, you earn game time. It is not a RIGHT

The SE is not the place you build your career.

The SE is recognition of outstanding quality performances in your club and league.

Thier club form reflects the requirements of the league and club but not the requirements of the SE and in this AFCON.

charlesemeka85:
Owngoalnigeria.com can exclusively reveal that coach of the Super Eagles of Nigeria Gernot Rohr will likely drop Ola Aina from his starting lineup for the AFCON quarter final game against South Africa.

Base on the training session of the team, Rohr has picked Jamilu Collins in the team that contains most of the regular players ahead ‎of Aina who has so far played in every game for Nigeria.

Aina could however shift to the right back position which is his preferred role but Rohr has been very impressed with the performance of Chidozie Awaziem who has filled in admirably well as cover since the injury to regular right back Shehu Abdullahi in the first game.

Another move made by the coach is the decision to hand a start to Samuel Chukwueze for the second time in this tournament ‎ahead of Moses Simon who will be given a rest for the game.

For now the two changes appear to be the ones the coach will likely make to the team that started the 3-2 win over Cameroon in the round of 16.

Icon79:
If Jamilu Collins is 100% fit, then I would expect him to start at LB while Ola Aina move to his natural RB.

That, to me, is our strongest like up.



O pari

OMANBALA1:


So, Osimhen did not earn game time?? Remind me the league where Osimhen plays and Ighalo. The only reason Ighalo is starting ahead of Osimhen is based precisely on super eagles experience. It has nothing to do with club form.
