Rohr Names The One Super Eagles Player That Impressed Vs DRC & Those That Flopped
Super Eagles coach Gernot Rohr has admitted that Crotone frontman Simeon Tochukwu Nwankwo impressed him so much in the 1-1 draw with Democratic Republic of Congo yesterday.

Without mentioning their names, the German emphasized that he's not satisfied with the performance of the fullbacks, and he might be referring to Monaco's Elderson Echiejile and Chelsea starlet Ola Aina.

''I was satisfied with the performance of Simy, center forward, because we didn't have such a profile until yet and now we found it. It's interesting,'' Rohr told reporters, including allnigeriasoccer.com, post-match.

''This game, we saw also that we have some problems with our fullbacks but we will work on it.

''We have another few days to be ready and to have the team, Victor Moses, Obi Mikel and Ighalo second of June in London, so I think the team will be better than today but it was interesting to see everybody play today. ''

Apart from their next friendly against England, the Super Eagles will face Czech Republic on June 6 before their trip to Russia for the 2018 World Cup.

not suprised about his views on simeon nwankwo..it was obvious to all

daveP:
I Lipread him saying "why aren't you guys warming up?" Ighalo and co were reluctant actually, but he frowned and they stood up reluctantly as well.

you can read lips? I wish I am good at that

Kylekent59:
That's nature for you.


Pythons and anaconda are explicit when it comes to poisonous / the edible part


Ohhh is it because Nigerians eat it? Lol


Australia is a very cool country, Nigeria is hot and don't you think that snake cannot adapt?

some parts of australia are as hot as nigeria(central paths and city of perth)..it is just that nigeria is more humid

Baroba:
What a stupid post, there are no inland taipans in Nigeria, let the so called OAP prove it with a life video from Lekki..

By the way, you won't die if you ingest venom.. another myth..
These almost always need to be injected into the blood stream and thus carried round the body to be effective. If ingested, the acids and enzymes contained in both saliva and the stomach will break them down to harmless chemicals very quickly.

it can be smuggled in though and maybe mistakenly released in to the wild

Kylekent59:
There is no way inland taipan could be in Lagos. Do you think it wld adapt to that habitat. Each snakes have its own habitat. Check the snake well.

Some people just wonna trend online,no confirmation of news before bringing it to FP.


More so, poisonous snakes are snakes that cannot be eaten / snakes that arn't edible(e.g boom slang,water snake,mostly green snakes,even Python,Anaconda..etc), While venomous snakes are snakes with fangs, rattle,V shaped head,cat eyed.(e.g copper head,B.mamba,cobra,timber snake,rattle snake, boomslang with dark spot, dessert brown snake, etc)

Do not keep snakes as pets, eliminate them once seen in your house, at your home,POW etc.

Also,do not look into their eye,that's when they will spit and once it touches the eyes it could lead to blindness.

So note their differences.

brother it depends..burmese python isnt originally from usa but what brought to southe eastern united states through smuggling..now that snake has adapted there and is seriously snuffing life away from other small mammals inhabiting that area that it is now a cause for concern...python and anaconca are edible snakes and non poisonous

Ramos16:
Spitting into your water? Really?? Ingesting undiluted snake poison/spit is not harmful, and yet he talks about it spitting into your water. Snakes do not hunt humans, you guys should chill jare.

the oap is ignorant with that spitting into spitting into tank comment.swallow venom nothin go happen..it only only acts when it gets into the blood stream..however on hunting humans yes it does not not but one bit from this specie of snake in nigeria is a death sentnce because for one the anti venom cannot be here since it was not expected to occur here in the first instance

daveP:
who else noticed when Rohr shouted at his bench that they should be warming up instead of sitting and watching? Those players thought they won't feature in the match cos they felt big already@Ighalo and controls. Lol


I'd love a player like Bale.... Fuming at being on the bench and then come on and outshine the perceived oga nla that's is flopping.

i noticed that too..i was wondering what it was all about

Martz101:
you are right he need to sort his club out, but it still don't stop us from inviting him after worldcup, Amunike was playing in tunisia

egypt for zamalek and a regular for them then

tbaba1234:
Confirmed!!!!!
Dele Ajiboye Stephen Eze Uche Agbo Daddy Moses Simon Junior Lokosa.
Dropped...
No surprises!!
2 to go..

chai uche agbo.. hardly used.. well expected though

ability to hold onto the ball and dictate a play is a skill in football that can make teams go far.. only Mikel seems to be the only player in the present eagles set up that is close to that

crappy pitch.. don't know why we like doing this to ourselves.. simeon nwankwo looks like a genuine threat going forward to be honest

tbaba1234:
Like Icon4s said, there is little that can be done to fix the pitch in 2 days.

This game should have been played in Uyo.

i wonder why it was moved to this pitch when uyo is in good condition

this pitch self

EmmGee:
i wasnt even born during the romania time. and for 1999/2000 i think the only football i watched was probably supet eagles and maybe arsenal.

counter attack is a thing of beauty

if you have data watch this clip..the 2nd and 3rd goals by romania..at 1.44mins and 2.47(dumetriscu and hagi) are egs of the romanian counter attacks in that tournament that i am talking about
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q3dtpy8gDZ0

EmmGee:
mourinho's style is all about efficiency. he will sacrifice 75% possesion and win the game 1-0 with a vicious counter.
to each his own i guess, because as much as attacking football is appealing, i am a big fan of defensive football.

defensive masterclass like arsenal v atletico europa league semi final

the only defensive football laced with counter attacks I enjoyed were the types played by Romania in USA 94 and Valencia in 1999/2000 season because of the flair in their movements

Mujtahida:
No be dem Gaurdiola and tiki taka? In addition I think this is happening because of the white man's lust for efficiency and you know they are the supervening cultural influence over football. All the major leagues are concentrated in Europe. Perhaps if the south Americans and Africans had strong or greater influence over football the picture would have been different.

The Europeans have simply influenced the game to be played in their own way.. Oyibo dey dribble? No be pass, pass?

I hate that Spanish football. Gosssssshh. Watching Spain, a strange feeling of emptiness descends upon me.

nooo..be like you get issue with tiki taka..in fact pep style is still one of those types i can sit and enjoy watching..at least there is some form of entertainment and he likes skillful players..weting you go now talk about mourinho approach?mourinho's approach epitomizes what i was talking about

kennysville:
You dey mind them? No be dem fault na.... football is now business and not entertainment. Be ready to watch kick and rush soccer @ the world cup peeps

that is my fear of football going forward now..komken said something recently and i think he is right..he said football is gradually becoming BORINGLY EFFICIENT.

LieDetector:
could you expound a little on this

italy(demetrio albertini) vs nigeria usa94(took out amunike and amokachi)

france(matuidi) vs nigeria2014(took out onazi)

somehow:
Hello Family,

Is it true that Echiejile is the only natural left footer in camp and that Brian Idowu is naturally a right footer?

left footer in the defense not team as Joel obi is also a left footer.. idowu is a natural right footer

looks more like a rugby player

truth be told when the world cup starts we should be wary of the dark arts of football.. European teams are good at it.

elyte89:
I can't imaging UZOHO doing dis kind of skool boy mistake

lmao na die be that

same thing happened to carvajal before euro 2016 which he eventually missed.. hope it will not mean him missing this time around again.. saw a clip where he was walking down the tunnel by himself unlike 2016 where he was carried off a stretcher. as for Salah as far as he did not break a collar bone I believe he will be fit by the time the world cup starts

MetalJigsaw:
If it's made five teams In a group then there should be 4 group games for each team. So how wouldn't number of matches increase?

yep.. didn't calculate well

edi287:
Mikel could do that. Ndidi will buzz around doing the dirty work while Iwobi does damage in the final 3rd

Mikel as defensive midfielder in its present set up? please Mikel is playing his best football at that AM position now and he seems happy with it

Icon4s:
23 is adequate. 10-30% of those 23 players(depending on how far the team goes) will not even kick a ball.

And FIFA has said that making it 40 teams would not increase the number of matches to be played.

on your second paragraph maybe fifa wants 5 teams in a single group

Kog45:
Why

he is the very mobile type that runs round the midfield breaking up opponent play and getting stuck in tackles.a bit like a gattuso type player. he does not strike me like the type the plays his best just sitting in from of the defence a la makalele

EmmGee:
i believe a 3man midfield of Ndidi mikel and iwobi will be deadly. as long as Ndidi does all the dirty work perfectly.

our own busquests xavi iniesta...

still not convinced about ndidi played as the defensive midfielder just in front of the defence line

tbaba1234:
It is normal in training, most times, there are minor knocks and niggles.

i am surprised I have not heard any news on ebuehi and injury

tbaba1234:
Chidozie Awaziem limped off training today. Hopefully not a serious knock.

He had a ice pack on his leg.

oh men

Icon4s:
We need the full complement of Mikel and Iwobi at the same time on the pitch. Starting Simon because you want Iwobi to deputise for Mikel from the bench is just a waste of potentials.

how really effective is iwobi from the wings though?

Martz101:
i didnt see any prove too, but I'm sure i saw it somewhere

i for say na ..make e no be say i don dey misyarn
