I dedicate my FTC

PH first son

Buhari must go back to dura 2019

Hit like if you agree

World cup warm up for my boys.

This Rohr or whatever they call him is another Lars Lagerback who took a good squad to a backward performance just as his name suggested...... He even ensured Larson wasnt marked in the match against sweden , his home country.


There was also a Berti Vogts who didnt do anything special for the eagles ......infact the coach of Bora football club in my child-hood community was better than him.

Rohr is a disaster waitiing to happen to Nigerian football

Nice move Wike

This comment goes to show how much you know about Rohr. How could you even draw comparison. The three coaches can never be in the same league as per super Eagles. Berti Vogts was a disaster likewise Largaback. But in the case of Rohr he qualified super Eagles for world cup and performed credibly well in friendlies. That alone places him mile a far.

Btw, for the record Largaback wasn't in charge when Nigeria played Sweden. Nigeria vs Sweden was in 2002.

"Everywhere is home to the Super Eagles. Lagos, Port Harcourt, Uyo, Kano, Kaduna or Minna. They are Super Eagles of Nigeria and every part is integral to the development of football ", Pinick said.

Can this be true of Lagos? If they come to Lagos to play and they lose, all those agberos from Oshodi will just go and meet Mikel, Moses, Ighalo, etc and be ranting:

" Ah! Alaye.. E fumble sha. Ah! E lose ke? Ah! e e ni lo o. Ah! Oloun! Ah..."

I hope the FA is up to date with Rohrs salary.

I hope players will put on protective nose mask to avoid that Buhari soot in pH meanwhile Mikel, iwobi , iheanacho and the rest of Biafrans boys in super eagles avoid and boycott that match for your health, musa and his brothers in kano pillars should go ahead and represent Nigeria
