Nice that we won. Couldn't see the game but from all indications, our players performed below expectations. Just like the u-17 where we managed to win some games even when we didn't play well.

I hope we improve with each game but I won't be disappointed if we don't.

Dominic Iorfa made a commitment to play for Nigeria in late 2016. In March 2017 Rohr visited him and his position was reiterated he was then a first team regular at Wolves. Promises were made by Rohr but to date No call up or invitation from the NFF.

WHY ❓ never ending speculation.

When Mono took over as Manager he moved him to CB his actual preferred position. Currently Wednesday have one of the best defensive records in the Championship with much credit given to Dominic.
Wow. That's cool

So who made it to the top over the weekend?
Here is a review of Nigerians that made the team of the week and also featured in other important stats courtesy of WhoScored.

1. Cyriel Dessers makes the TOTW in the Eredivisie with the maximum possible points of 10.0, as well as Chidera Ejuke
2. Onyinye Ndidi takes a commanding place in Premier League's best XI at the heart of the midfield.
3. Dominic Iorfa takes his turn at Center Back in the Championship Best XI, after Tosin Adarabioyo was listed in last week's Best XI
4. Ebere Eze is the highest rated player in the English second tier with 7.54 points. Ovie Ejaria, on his part has climbed up the ranking to the 5th best player with a rating of 7.33.
Thanks for this info. Never knew Dominic Iorfa was a CB. If he wishes to play for Naija, he would be a welcome addition

nairalandankrah:
Rodgers has also praised forward Kelechi Iheanacho who has come in to deliver when called upon despite his limited playing time this term.



The Leicester City boss stated that the striker his playing behind one of the best forward in Europe at the moment but believes he will always be ready to step into the shoes when called upon.



“He’s playing behind one of the great strikers in Europe. I know that when I need him, he’ll be ready.”

Nacho should better leave during the January transfer window ..dont think Rodgers fancies him
These kind of coaches......I don't understand.

You leave a player out of several match day squads and when he is listed, he doesn't even sub in. You limit him to a few cup matches and then you come put to praise him just to massage the ego of the already hurt player. Is this really Rodger's man-management tactic? Someone help me understand better

somehow:
My stand which remains my final statement concerning the objection I raised few days ago is that people should stop doing things anyhow

Nigerians should respect rules, laws and processes

Developed countries and societies only became such because they followed the above intoto

If we in little settings can't practice this, how then do you expect this to work in a larger setting?

A society can only become better when each community practice law and processes the right way and this starts from the smallest unit which is the family.

We are a family here and our conducts here will likely go a long way in affecting our individual lifes outside here, once we can do things rightly anywhere we find ourselves, it becomes part of us and influences our actions anywhere else.

let's be the mini Nigeria we pray hope and wish to see for our future generation

one love to you all

I am not an enemy to anyone here, I just like orderliness.

Drops pen and back to reading from you wonderful people.
I agree with this

I am in support of this


Nigeria Football Federation President Amaju Pinnick has provided an update on the future of manager Gernot Rohr, who comes off contract with the Nigeria National Team next summer.

Pinnick has strongly hinted that fresh terms will be offered to the German football tactician provided that he accepts a clause be included in his contract to monitor the Nigeria Professional Football League and scout for talents.

''Gernot Rohr, his contract is due for renewal in June, we don't have any issue with him right now,'' Pinnick said in an interview with Channels Television monitored by allnigeriasoccer.com on Monday morning,

''The truth is contracts are classified documents but one thing I know that we are going to pass on to him is to strengthen the clauses that domesticate Gernot himself in Nigeria and domestic him to our leagues, that's just it.

''He needs to go round, watch some of the leagues, we are not saying take a player from here and bring him to the Super Eagles immediately''.

Rohr has been coaching the Super Eagles since August 2016 and the national team qualified for the 2018 World Cup and 2019 AFCON with the former Bayern Munich defender in the dugout
If nobody in our league is good enough for the super eagles, then let none of them be included in the team. It is not Rohrs duty to improve in the quality of our league. That is the duty of the NFF and LMC. Rohr's duty is simply to scout for talents good enough for the Super Eagles. We must not allow sentiments make us embrace mediocrity.

This is my honest take on the ICON4S issue.

If the people really wanted him on the committee, he would have been voted in. He would have accumulated the required no of votes that qualifies one as a committee member.

Asking that he be a part of it because he pioneered it doesn't seem right. .

NB: this is my honest opinion on a matter and insults directed at me would be duly ignored. Thank you

Sometimes I just feel we're lucky to have Rohr in charge of the Super Eagles. To think otherwise, is frightening.
You're right about this. Although I rate him 50% on his abilities as a coach (and I feel he needs refresher courses or a tactical assistant), its not a lie that merit determines team selection for the Super Eagles now and 90% of players merit their place

I THINK OUR NATIONAL TEAMS HAVE BEEN JINXED
First the Falcons were knocked out by Cote d'Ivoire in the race to the Olympics now our U23 eagles lost 0-1 to the same CIV.

Golden Eaglets with all the individual talents were knocked out in the 2nd round.

God show mercy!!!
There's no jinx bro

You must have missed the question mark.

If you are morally sound, you would be less bothered and would just categorically state "I'm not like that" rather than acting all hurt and offended undecided

Anyway, we all can't respond the same way, I understand.

I don't delude myself into thinking this country is what it is not, I know the kind of place I'm in, I know I'm an anomaly here. I will not use rose colored glasses to look at Nigeria, I'm past that phase in life. I say things as they are, not as I wish them to be.
See, I am a christian young lady and a practicing one but I'm not perfect. However, morality encompasses civility and your manner of approach to others as well. We learn everyday in life and this should be a valuable learning opportunity for you.

Is it not the immoral that survive? Is it not immorality that thrives in this country? Those that are not on the corruption train, are on the fornicators train, and all of them justify their actions.

[b]You sef, are you a moralist? If you no dey thief, you dey kpansh person wey you no wife. [/b]The amount of morally sound people in this country is negligible, and these people either run out of the country for their own good, die poor and lonely, or fit in with the immoral.
