the coach lost it tactically by fielding etebo in defense midfield and also by playing high balls ,Croatia won virtually all the aerial duels

Wrong was that Nigeria is not one country.

Croatia from old Yugo has become a super country.

Let the many workable countries to emerge from Nigeria for the benefit of the black race, Africa and the world.

Senselin:
To me, Etebo did not play his usual wing. I don't blame his own goal.. Coach Rohr follow kill us. Why a lone striker (Ighalo) when we needed two?

Mikel, what happened?

Technical issues from the coach and poor attack dats all. The defense did well beside d mistake.dat led to the penalty. Our problem the attack has no game plan, no coordinated attack caused our defeat.

Mikel didnt feed the attack with his straight passes and attack wasn't pro active. I hope the coach studies dis game well technically knows how to use these boys better.

Did anyone see Mikel chase a ball down the wing? He's outta steam.

Rohr should always play 2 strikers upfront, Iheanachor first. He and Musa showed more zeal than the others.

Moses should stop being stupid, stay on ur feet and play ball, man!

I don't see it bad but fail, they score two un-emotional goal although Gernot Rohr Bleep up the game,,,,.Wrong tactics, he have put in more midfielder 3-5-2 to stop monster*Modric* and Rakitic,,,.Mikel nothing, substituting Iwobi is an error,, Balogun think football has no rule, more work is to be done

put your head up lads


GOD BLESS NIGERIA

WE TOLD THEM OOOOOO BUT THEY SAID IT WAS JUST A FRIENDLY
Koolking:
Everything went wrong. Mikel, Moses most especially are 'dont dirty players', they have no business in the squad. Check the stats, you'll confirm everything was wrong.

I knew the team was no good during the international friendly.

the super eagles is part of our numerous problems among poverty hunger corruption selfish interest bad leadership bereaucracy red tapism among others

i insist.

please all the players should return back to their clubs after losing out...don't bother to come back to nigeria again.
until we implement death sentence or jail term to any player who performed woefully.that is when we will get things right.
I read saudi arabia will be punishing their players who lost 5-0 to russia.
super eagles does not deserve a kobo for this participation.they can keep the useless overhyped jersey and continue taking pictures with their thumbs up in europe

grin grin Have mercy naw.

Someone should tell these peeps that this cross cross style of football has not paid us and would never pay us. Leaving 1 man in front is only a reflection of the style adopted by the coach.. Cross from the midfield. All other coaches have been doing the same that is why we have never gone far.. Building ball into the front line from the middle is the kind of football we have to go and learn. It worked for us with the junior teams. It works for most teams in Europe. Well maybe Nigeria adopts this style because it is the easiest style of play and these our guys are lazy in my opinion or maybe it's just the coach

Moses, Mikel, Iwobi made Nigeria lost to Croatia...

Those who started our midfield opened a wider gap for Croatia to decide. No aggressive attack, No Speed, No accurate passing.

Mr Coach needs to understand that this is World Cup & not all those friendly matches. If an experienced player or wareva is not productive, substitute him Asap.

I felt Mikel should have left the pitch after 35 minutes. Draft in Iwobi to that position then bring in iheanachor or Musa....if he so loves Mikel...he should have swapped his position with that of Etebo who is more aggressive with lots of energy . Ebuehi in for Shehu (rusty and lacking pace).

Wondered why Rohr did that interview after the match in German....He made sure a lot don’t understand what he says...

Mikel on my bench next match....do a 3-5-2 against Argentina and Iceland

first from Mikel not getting to Ighalo, In my own opinion, the coach should have substituted Mikel for Musa n shifted Iwobi to No 10 role.

Also Iwobi was nothing playing from that wing.

In my own opinion
