charlesemeka85: Nigerian-born midfielder Tosin Kehinde is leaning towards an exit from Manchester United in the summer, six years after he joined the Premier League powerhouse.
The 19-year-old has been offered a fresh two-year contract to extend his stay at Old Trafford but the stumbling block is that he is unhappy over the length of the deal they gave him and there are no guarantees that he'll be integrated into the first team next season.
''Tosin's priority is to remain at Manchester United, but there are two things. He needs assurances that he is going to play and will be part of the first team, he doesn't want to sign the contract and sit on the bench,'' a top source told allnigeriasoccer.com.
''The longevity of the contract is also part of the reason he hasn't signed, he was offered a two-year deal.
''Most Premier League clubs in England are not ready to sign you if you have not made your debut for the first team, if he remains in England we are talking of training compensation of close to 0.5 million pounds while if he moves abroad the figure will be around £0.2 million.''
He added : ''Tosin has the talent but he has to be in the right environment, he is as talented as Alex Iwobi and Kelechi Iheanacho. Talks are still ongoing.
''Close to thirty clubs have contacted us. Manchester United are one of the biggest clubs in the world but he is leaning towards Spain.''
Barcelona, Villarreal, Atlético de Madrid, Swedish club AIK Fotboll plus teams in the Netherlands and Belgium have made enquiries over the possibility of signing Tosin Kehinde before the close of the summer transfer window.

Well, I hope we surprise the world with the ones we have.
Lukas and Bashiru are also going to the wind.  Sorry bro but u talk like u mentally deranged sometimes. You and Southgate were the ones bashing and trolling here that Iwobi came into the team without a single first team football for Arsenal, and that it was the influence of Okocha that caused that not that he merited it. But today you want us to ply that same route we used to get iwobi (getting them before they blossom)? |

forgiveness: Morning Session: Eagles Play Practice Game Lasting 50 Minutes; Ighalo Nets Brace, Iwobi & Iheanacho Strike
Published: June 09, 2018
Morning Session: Eagles Play Practice Game Lasting 50 Minutes; Ighalo Nets Brace, Iwobi & Iheanacho Strike Allnigeriasoccer.com can confirm that the Super Eagles Saturday morning training session was held behind closed doors at their training camp in Avita Resort, Bad Tatzmannsdorf. The Nigeria Football Federation want the players and officials to be fully focused before their trip to Russia for the World Cup and did not allow fans to watch or the media to cover the session.
The players started this morning's training session, which began at 1000 hours, with the usual warm-up exercises before they rounded up the session by having a practice game between the Team A and Team B which lasted twenty-five minutes each half.
The training game ended 3-1, with Alex Iwobi and Odion Ighalo (2 goals) writing their names on the score-sheet for Team A and Iheanacho pulling a goal back for the Team B.
Two days before their trip to their base camp in Yessentuki, the Super Eagles will train again this evening, starting from 1700 hours.
Meanwhile, allnigeriasoccer.com can independently confirm that there is no rift between captain John Obi Mikel and his assistant Eddy Onazi, amid speculations in the media that they fell out following Nigeria's 2-1 loss to England last weekend.

http://www.allnigeriasoccer.com/read_news.php?nid=28089 As much as I was pained by Aina's omission, I also feel this news is false because if those guys feel bad about Aina's snub, they should also consider the fact that iwobi, vicmo were picked.

Just as I predicted, Rohr comes up with yet another excuse
Rohr: Poor Logistics Affected Super Eagles In Czech Republic Defeat
7 June 8, 2018 2:10 pm By Sab Ekeh in Bad Tatzmanndsdorf:
Super Eagles head coach Gernot Rohr has claimed that arriving late at the venue of Wednesday’s friendly clash against Czech Republic affected his team’s performance, reports Completesportsnigeria.com.
The three-time African champions were far from their best in the encounter which they lost 1-0 following a Tomas Kalas effort in the first half.
The players, Completesportsnigeria.com learnt, arrived at the stadium late from their training base.
“I think we need to change the arrangement before the game. We arrived only one hour before the match and we didn’t have enough to do proper warm-up,” he told reporters. “I hope the conditions will change for everyone in future.”
The Super Eagles are now expected to concentrate on their opening Group D fixture against Croatia on June 16 at the 2018 FIFA World Cup in Russia. |

Icon4s: If Rohr would adopt the 3-5-2 formation I would rather we have Iwobi and Iheanacho upfront. Iwobi to cover from the left wing to the center and also easily joins the midfield but must always be ahead of Mikel who will play directly behind the duo.
Iheanacho is a very deadly finisher but he only needs someone to pair with to wreck havoc.
Iwobi pairing with Iheanacho upfront is the coup I want Rohr to plot against Croatia. I didn't even see this before my post where I talked about an attacking line that comprises an overlaping Moses, Iwobi, Achor and may Ebuehi. Nice one there man, add this ur post to mine up there and we have a devastating fantasy team that could turn out to be real if Rohr adheres |

I have this feeling that Moses would serve us better playing as a left wing back if we deployed the 3-5-2 formation because to me, idowu isn't up to the job and Moses is less useful playing as a winger in a 4-3-3 formation where he partners a not so prolific Ighalo.
A vicmo as a LWB for Nigeria will be allowed to overlap even more than he does for chelsea-fc and he should also be tasked with playing his primary role as a full back.
This is what is called maximization of potentials. Now see what I mean ;
Vicmo as normal left winger loves to attack, track back, dribble and also cut into his preferred feet to unlish a shot. in the same vain, If he is played as a LWB, he would be given the special permission to join the attack at will and also join the defense when we are under siege. Knowing Moses for who he is and as a professional, I believe he would do this job perfectly by not leaving too much gap behind, as such, he would be important to us both in the defense and attack even in the midfield.
If we file out this way, then Rohr will now have the opportunity to field his best attackers in Iwobi and Acho. By so doing, we would be able to have an attacking line that comprises an overlaping Moses, Iwobi, Acho and another overlapping (though to a lesser extent) ebuehi. And when we are under attack we would also have a defensive line that looks this way ; Moses, balogun, Ekong, Omeruo and ebuehi.
This will be very effective because Moses has that energy, dribbling ability and pace to be useful to us both in the defense and attack.
I dont know why our coach isn't thinking through such line |

TheSuperNerd: Remember Rohr used these friendlies to test out different playing styles and to test and stretch the dynamism of our team plays in different tactical set-ups. This is obviously why we tend to struggle for a bit and pick up much later, dominate for most parts yet with no goal and even start as slowbies in first half before hitting great gear in the second half.
Rohr was not out to lose these friendlies. He wanted to win but it was secondary. His primary aim was to ensure he tests out different playing styles as he said he would in an interview even before the march friendlies.
I recall most of us here wanted Rohr to test out different formations to give us options... this is exactly what Rohr did. Should he now be crucified for doing what most agreed with in the first place? It is funny to me oooo... lol
The thing is... He didn't set out to lose any friendly deliberately. We were just unlucky for the most parts and we indeed ended up trying out different formations...
We saw 4-4-1-1, we also saw 3-5-2... we saw 4-5-1... we saw 4-3-3... and our usual 4-2-3-1 (which can easily be 4-3-3 in disguise)... In tinkering this way, there are bound to be imperfections here and there and also shows of brilliance and positive possibilities here and there... I trust Rohr is gathering the good pieces and putting them together for the main event in Russia. Give it time. June 16 is already upon us but we have a few days to finish the puzzle of our tactical options. The team will rise. We have the good, the great, the bad and the ugly in these various tactical tweaks. Rohr will pick the best and the good and "piece together" our most effective I trust.
We will be hard to puzzle out in Russia if we can show good dynamism based on the experiences and lessons of these friendlies. Hmmm OK oo, fingers crossed |

Lol people actually think we will beat Iceland because ghana came back to draw them? If we dont change our game style to a suitable one, trust me, we would be out with zero points.
When was the last time we even came from behind to draw or win a match?
Before u shout Argentina, remember the formation was different from what Rohr is dishing out now, hence if Rohr continues like this, dont expect that miracle we saw in Krasnodar.
By the way, the Oyibo wall has badly cracked that it exposes our goalkeeper like mad. |

Nice analysis elder Kog45.
But, Chriskels never said he didn't know what came over him, he still stand his ground that Rohr is clueless and that its a self delusion to think that he was hiding his plans by playing badly with his numerous excuses like cutysaxel also noticed.
That said, I only admitted I was joking with the sack saga. Yes I still repeat it that it was a joke I cracked by calling for his sacking before the Croatia match. |

This is true guys, Simon is Liverpool bound.
Here is what klopp said about the imminent move ;
Reacting on Liverpool Echo, Klopp said: I love Simon because he is similar to Sadio Mane, he should have been with Nigeria at the World Cup but for injuries, he has blossomed in the Belgian League and has been monitored on a number of times. He is capable of giving Liverpool wings.”
Though wasn't a strong fan of his but I am so happy this will make up for his world cup miss.

This is inline with my earlier post that as a professional, Rohr cant be blind to his errors and how to make corrections ;
Rohr said, "We have to work on some areas and make some changes in defence and attack. There is time to be ready for the World Cup. Some players are pushing to be considered and it’s a good thing to have competition in the team”

But its quite funny that the honorable members of this thread thought I was serious when I wrote that Rohr be sacked before the Croatia match Chai I believe Rohr ain't blind to his errors and how to curtail them. Hence, he already knows his go-to formation and the personnel to execute it. Even though I feel I am kinda deceiving myself by saying this but I believe Rohr is trynna play smart on his opponents so as to take them by surprise at the main event proper. That said, my expectations remain low until we bring down Croatia and Iceland. Soar on the galant soldiers of the black race Dodorima to all Eagulians in here. ✊ |
