Etebo and Ogu/Ajayi as double pivot with Iwobi as AMF in a 4-2-3-1 with Aina at RB would've served up a better game than this filth of a match we played today.

Curtisaxel7:
Rohr fawked up big time today. First with the starting formation. Why change the 4-2-3-1 that got us three consecutive victories leading to this match?. Food for thought.

Second with his shocking inability to read the game as it progresses. Even a layman could see that SA was killing us from the wings. Kalu, apart from the own goal he caused, was out of sorts at RWB. We were struggling to move the ball from defence to attack. The logical thing would've been to switch to a our normal four man back line. But Rohr.....

Odunayaw:
If Rohr knows his onion he had better hustle out another "Ndidi" for us

Danielnino00:
I'll still blame Rohr for this game.. There was no need to.play a 3-5-2 today . It rendered our wing play useless . Collins at some point in the second half became confused as to whether he was playing CB or LB. Even Kalu was ineffective. A 4-2-3-1 with Success starting would have been better..


Seriously I hate it when we draw and lost some games we could have won under Rohr .. The man's decision making is poor. even if we win the afcon,he is still not the right man for the job...This team of ours is young and full of talents... Rohr just doesn't know how best to utilise them...

TheGoodJoe:
Agu - Ogu lack pace. I do not agree with these type of pairing. One must have pace. Just like Barry-Fernandinho or Kante-Matic or Casemiro-Modric.

So, Etebo-Ogu looks ideal due to Ogu being disciplined at the back and Etebo's pace and workaholic spirit.

Joebie:
Maybe I’ve not seen Kalu enough. But I would start Onyekuru rather on the left, and Musa on the right. Kalu should not be a starter IMO.

AIG07:
With Etebo's injury, Agu and Ogu will likely start.

This is what our Midfield is reduced to. Who do we bring on to replace this guys if the need arises?

Well, what do I know. I just hope our Midfield is not over run by the Southies.

What do you think Mikael2?

If I had my way, this would be my lineup against SA.

Success is in the best shape among all the strikers now.

Chukwueze ahead of Kalu is a no brainer. Kalu came late to camp and he hasn't really covered himself in glory in the he GWG shirt.

Ogu is too slow for my liking, hence I chose to partner Etebo with Ajayi.

I dont have Faith in any of the goalkeepers in camp, so, whoever gets picked, I can only wish he comes good

Tactics is different from versatile. This isn't an English class but for clarification. Tactics is another word for strategy or method. It is not common to see someone who is skillful without tactics. Hence Okocha is both skillful and has tactics. Meaning he has a strategy of getting over a player with his skill.

By the way, it is out of place to compare Okocha with the new generation of Messi and C. Ronaldo
Okocha, Luis Figo and Zidane were in the same league


I am of the opinion that Messi and Ç. Ronaldo are just lucky to be around when there are low quality defenders and goalkeepers.


Maldini
Nesta
Thuram
Stam
Cafu
Hierro
Roberto Carlos
Oliver Kahn
Buffon
Castillas
etc

Cantonese:
Very wrong assertion my brother. Issa Hayatou admitted that Okocha deserved to receive the African player of the year but was cheated by CAF.
The issue has to do with:
1. His skin
2. The authorities

Were there no other great or greater players all the years that Messi and Ronaldo shared the Fifa world footballer of the year award? By the way looking at skills is Ronaldo more skilful than Okocha? NO. Uncommon cheating by the Europeans cheated many African greats my brother. Okocha was among the African greats who played in Europe and got cheated by the authorities.
Arsene Wenger once said that he did not sign Okocha because he lacked discipline on the field. But he gave flimsy excuses for not signing Messi, Ronaldo, Ibrahimovic, Mbappe, etc. The same players are given freedom to roam in their clubs, are allowed to make decisions affecting their teams and are glorified and feared by club owners.
Let us honour our own. Okocha for me is one of the greatest to ever play football.

ShedrachU:
Dont you know Ronaldinho learnt 80% of his skills fro Jay-Jay.
Though he has no much trophy and awards like Cboy and Leo but he is the king of tricky football and magical skills. As he said sometime in an interview;
"I played football to entertain"

Niorte:
Sam Allardyce was right. Many of the people commenting here either lack comprehension or they were much younger during Okocha's wave. The man did not say Okocha was better than Cristiano Ronaldo and Messi in terms of goalscoring but in terms of SKILLS AND TACTICS.

This was even confirmed by Ronaldinho when he stated that the only playing he enjoyed watching to play was Jay Jay Okocha.

Fact is Okocha is a wonder when it comes to playing with football. I've watched many adverts and solo games up till now, Okocha still has that skills and tricks with the ball.

Messi and C. Rinaldo could have all the accolades but when it comes to skills, tricks and tactics, none of them come close to Austin Jay Jay Okocha.

ChiefAzubuike:
That's why he remained a useless player . How will you dribble 5 players, have an empty net begging you to impregnate it with a goal yet you chose to turn back and continue the madness from where it all started from.

His game simply lacked output. He was classless and refused to promote the motive of the game. I will gladly call him a commedian coz he wasn't a footballer at all. He was just there to make people laugh.

Have you even ever wondered why many Nigerians even rate KANU Nwankwo above him? Kanu generally was a far better player. He had all the skills and tricks okocha possessed and he put them to good use.

do4luv14:
I don't understand all this argument abut NACHO,

I for one had Neva and will never see him as astiker, or support striker again,
he should had stay in city, and develop his his game as a 10 he is, but his goals, seems to get to him hence his always knack for it, rather than develop his position as an AM,

too bad he is on a decline, with his constant position of a striker/cf, he won't find his feet


NOTE: am not hating on him, if anyone can show me his natural position, then we can rumble on it thanks pals

TheGoodJoe:
Being a good assistant coach is a good pathway to becoming a good coach. Ask Mourinho. Other backroom staff that did well are Villas-Boas and Brendan Rodgers.

Clementoke:
Nothing. Neither has he done anything to show he is a poor coach either.

He needs time to turn things around

TheGoodJoe:
What has Henry done to show he is a bad coach? He took over a sinking ship and he is trying to salvage it under tough conditions. The Monaco team should be patient. Keep in mind Monaco has over 9 players out due to injuries. It is a tough condition.

Finito.

TheGoodJoe:
The point is Henry is not a poor coach but needs time to rescue the sinking ship. He did not take over a stellar side. The rough patch is normal and with time he can steady the ship.

davodyguy:
This is the simple truth.

If we're all reasonable, we would realize that salary increment is not what we need now but for infrastructure to be fixed, sound economy and low commodities prices.

At ₦18,000 more than 25 Governors out of 36 owed workers, cos they couldn't afford it with revenue drop. Why would anyone think when you increase, they would be able to pay?

Yoruba says owó tí kò sí, jedi jẹdi ọ lè gbà. Not even stomach upset can take the money that's non existent
Even at ₦18,000 if dollar exchange to ₦ is back to below ₦200, there's constant electricity, purchasing power automatically goes up.

Prices are high, you increase salaries, the sellers automatically adjusts their products prices immediately to benefit from the more money in circulation.

Only employers of Labour and sound economists would understand

Certitude:
His posts on instagram shows he ain't serious yet. Even when they are related to football, he is busy clowning with team mates.

ChrisKels:
I hope Kelechi Nwakali and his brother Allwell are seeing his mates. Osimhen, Chuks, Orji and Kingsley? When I look at Nwakali, all I see is pride (mpako). Oh yes I have arrived, after all, a top club like Arsenal fought for my siggy and I have been endorsed by greats like Kalu, Amunike et al, as the heir to odogwu Mikel, I won the mvp at the U17 and I am highly talked about within the Eagles circle. Mpako, mpako, mpako.

When I look at Amadou Haidara, a player who had nothing on Nwakali in that tourney and in that final against Mali, I say to myself, yes youth football is what it is, but pride comes before fall. Today Haidara is the fulcrum of RB Salzburg midfield and the whole of Europe are scrambling for his siggy. Marco Silva already has him penciled down as the solution to Everton's midfield come the winter/summer window. He played same position as Nwakali in Chile but for the runner ups(Mali). Nwakali was the boss and rightly so, the more heralded, today where is Nwakali compared to Haidara who took and is taking the Europa league by storm with RB Salzburg?

Mpako, mpako mpako hmmm
