Nwakali and Yahaya have not made Porto B in the last few games. They are not injured.

Kog45:
My Oga Ekong Troost is a good player but national team made him and right from U23 to Super eagles we all saw a vastly improved Ekong.

I can tell you authoritatively that Ekong is having the best of his club career right now not all these Sweden,Belgium or Turkey club careers.

It’s not a sin if national team helps our players in their careers.

Joebie:
The point is those are not stand out performers in the same league, but they made the list because of a lack of QUALITY options in their playing positions. Mikel is out, there is no excuse not to invite a stand out performer in the same league. We can definitively do without one striker, midfielder or defender that was included that list, a player who would most likely not even play any part in the Libya double header, to include Eze who can likely play a part as an AM in case Iwobi is deployed elsewhere or gets injured. Common sense stuff.

Modified
To keep it simple, we have only one player who can DELIVER as an AM in that list — Iwobi. But he can still have a bad day.

safarigirl:
what is Etebo's role sef? I mean, in the Super Eagles.

andrew444:
Outshine them in what aspect?

So because his team won meaning he outshine them?

You could have even say he outshine the whole stoke and rottherdam.

forgiveness:
There are some SE call help them career while there are some na by themselves.

Troost is a perfect example.

All Manchester united players should be lined up and sexed to death

komekn:
I know you will find this a hard and bitter pill to swallow but have an open mind.

Look at Chuks Aneke in the very lowly league two he is supposed to be a midfielder but is the outstanding stand out player for club and in that league.

Have you thought about Josh Maja too goal scorer league 1, ❓

The NFF should get them attached before they blow up and it becomes problematic. I really don't know what they are doing with Ebere Eze as well.

charlesemeka85:
pls can you name the attacking midfielders aside iwobi?

Joebie:
Rohr is PROBABLY not in full control of his list? Come oh komekn and forgiveness. Come to the feast.

Oga rework your arithmetics.

He said Taiwo was in SS2 when his brother was just entering JSS1. His brother is 37 years old today.
If Taiwo was same age as his brother was as at JSS1 find Taiwo's age today.

Oya carry your Biro.

ChrisKels:
Well Kelechi is not our best striker, Kayode is. And if our worst striker is a striker in the Epl this season, then our best striker has no excuse for playing second fiddle in the Ukrainian league after playing second fiddle to Olunga of Kenya. Dont u think so?

andrew444:
Which station will show the game ?

TheSuperNerd:
Our possible XI ahead of the Libya game in a 4-2-3-1 formation set-up based on the list.

With this list, the possibilities in the attack are enormous. Multiple kinds of combos in the starting XI would still guarantee a strong bench in attack.

We know Ighalo will start as the No.9 in the first leg unless....

Well in all, we know Success is coming for that no 9 shirt. So Ighalo better be on his toes and buckle up really fast.


But the three guys behind the no.9... aha.. this is where it gets really exciting...

For the AM role, Iwobi. Or would Rohr wanna have both Iheanacho and Iwobi on the pitch together again? In that set-up, we could see Iwobi as LMF, Nacho as AMF and Kalu as RMF.

But with Iwobi as AMF, we could have Musa as LMF and Kalu as RMF.

Onyekuru is not likely to start. Simon Moses starting depends on if Rohr benches our likely Captain Musa or an Iwobi if not I doubt Simon would start.

Success' time will come. I reckon he may get game time depending on Ighalo'a output upfront in these two Libya games.


In Central and defensive midfield, we would see Ndidi likely pairing Onazi again leaving Etebo and Ogu on the bench.

In defence, I expect Aina to start ahead of Shehu at RB as Shehu is just returning to action while Aina has been turning heads in Italy with his solid performances. I hope he convinces further in camp to seal that spot too. In Ebuehi's absence, I reckon with Aina over Shehu. A fit and in form Shehu may edge it but he is just returning while Aina has been balling at both RWB and LWB. I just feel Aina should win the battle for that starting slot at RB.



At LB, I think Rohr will stick with Idowu. Collins will have to play second fiddle again. Mind you Aina is also another option at LB if Rohr goes with Shehu at RB and feels Aina should be deployed on the left.. you may never know with this man sometimes. Lol


In Central defence, We expect to see the Oyibo wall in action together again since they last played together against Argentina at Russia 2018. Ekong and Balogun easily starts.

Semi Ajayi, Awaziem (yet to get games under his belt), and Omeruo (also yet to feature) will all bench.


In goal, the last line of defence, of course we know Uzoho starts again as he seeks to get his 5th clean sheet in his 11th cap for the Super Eagles.

Ezenwa and Akpeyi are mere backups and I, honestly, am pretty tired of seeing them on the list but I guess we have to deal with it for now.
Better options like Dele Ajiboye, Okeimute Odah, and most popular of them all, Theophilus Afelokhai are available but time will tell.

For the long run, talents like Dele Alampasu and Maduka Okoye would hopefully grow and become fine options in goal too.

At the cadet/age grade levels, we still got our eyes on the likes Gavin Bazunu and Arthur Okonkwo for the long-long term.




In conclusion, I just feel these are some of the feasible approaches Rohr may try out in a 4-2-3-1.

Humility017:
it is well.....
thanks for the clarification...even though your points seems valid but Rohr rarely make changes.

Perhaps he did change the supplier but things got exarcebated... Perhaps you can give him the number of a proper and healthy supplier so that he can quit this downhill slide of clownishness....
