Biko where is this money going to fall from? Heaven?

The Civil Service needs serious reform. It is over bloated and filled with mediocre/lazy workers. You can not be talking about increasing minimum wage when at least 75 percent of state governors are struggling to pay salaries on a consistent basis.
We need to start asking the right questions instead of this mumu propositions like this.
We are not USA, UK or whatever country people are giving as example.

What's "scrapping a win" and what is 'get exposed'?

We've been on a upward climb under rohr.
I believe I wrote in English and not French. Upward climb based on results - yes.
This is the same thing we said before the world cup and he hid with the "we have the youngest team and are the lowest ranked team in the group" excuse to mask his tactical deficiencies.
The same people that see no problem with this are the same ones that were on Amodu and Keshi's case.
Amodu would get accused of playing with 6 defensive players even when we win but let's excuse Rohr for inviting 3 midfielders..

forgiveness:
Good list.

However, what is that unkown home based player doing on the list? Is it another chop I chop arrangee because I don't think he's the best player in the NPFL.

Anyway, kudos for adding Samuel Chuchwueze on the list. No Jupiter can disagree or complain on top did one because he deserved it. But if I hear phem. grin

However, I am still trying to phantom the speed at which the coach gave Osimhen a call just because he scored 6 goals in the same Belgium Pro league we saw players done better than him in the same Belgium pro league last season.

Is this not bias selection or selective selection of players?

Man no man and agent connection? Na wa
My own is that midfield. Rohr must think his father's name is Goodluck.

Anyway watch him scrap a win and keep doing this nonsense till he finally gets exposed.

Weda he picks one midfielder or 23midfielders,d end justify d means,as far as I am concerned,anything rohr feels will make him get d needed result,he should do it,after all if he had picked like 6 or 7 midfielders and fail to get a result,we would still attack him,so what's d point cool cool?,having 6/7 midfielders in a team doesn't guarantee a victory, it only gives d coach more options in d middle.and to rohr he feels he won't need dt much options in d middle, so let c aw it goes cool
Yeah and it'll encourage him to continue until his luck runs out.
You can not have all those forwards and wingers and have JUST ONE person to get the ball to them.
It's madness...don't care if he flukes a win.

Finally Chukwueze made the list... Take it easy with Rohr.
Osimehn must have been inform to make the list.... Haven't been following his progress in his new club lately... But why just 3 midfielders..? Nice to see Agu back, the dude hasn't really been given time in GWG
Who's Adeleye..?
How can one look at this list and confidently say Rohr is not crazy??
Look at that midfield FFS!! Neutralize Iwobi and it's all over.
Why has he failed to replace Onazi and Mikel?? Has Mikel retired or what??
Rohr must be crazy if he wants us to believe we don't have midfielders to try out when Onazi and Mikel are out.
Unless he's leaving those spots open for the "two passport gang"(which is still weird and daft) - this man needs to go see a psychiatrist quick!
NFF definitely played a role in these picks...free hand indeed.

BascoVanVeli:
I blame the coach on this because he puts pressure on the boy to perform. I have not seen what Maddison has offered to the team, yet he plays while Nacho could even get subbed after scoring.

I think Ighalo's drought was more Watford than anything. People don't know he and his strike partner TroyDeeney almost threw blows or that he was at odds with his coach. Also his father died at the same time so it is hard to pinpoint what cost his drought
Like Nacho - Ighalo also struggled to play as a lone striker once. The coach didn't help by playing outwide sometimes too.
It's only recently that Ighalo started playing well as a lone CF. It helps that he's a very good dribbler sha.

raindodger13:
I think Iheanacho's problem is he's playing out of position. He doesn't seem do have the physicality and awareness to play the striker. His skillset looks like that of a winger due to his pace and ability to deliver accurate crosses. If he wants to continue playing striker he should be playing the SS position along side another striker like in the Iceland game.
Playing him as an SS means we sacrifice one of our mids(which will most likely be Iwobi). At the moment, that isn't a good idea.
I don't think he can play as a winger too. It's too late for that. He should've started off playing there at the city academy. I don't think he can operate in tight spaces too.
Maybe playing as a wide forward like Musa might work.

4-4-2 is being outdated in the modern game

If Iheanacho doesnt adapts and play well as a lone CF,it maybe byebye to the premier league for him
Aguero and Suarez were the same too when they first moved to the epl. They both eventually learned how to play as a lone CF.
Back then, people didn't know if Aguero was a 9 or a 10.
Nacho can do it if he works hard...either that or he becomes another Podolski.

Leyqute:
He doesn't even need to do any adaptation. Just improve his game- off the ball movement, create chances, improve his finishing and score goals.

If he does that he'll be okay.
He already has the finishing part. The others is what he needs to work on better. He should improve on holding up the ball too.

The hard work is evident with the fact that he could get the nod over Vardy but the problem is goals. I never thought I would ever say this but he is lacking confidence in front of goal
True and his off the ball movement is surprisingly not as sharp.

I totally disagree sir. And the reason is the way the team is set up.lets get one fact straight.... Iheanacho is not Vardy and can never be Vardy. Comparing both of them in terms of output will be totally unfair. That out of the way, a team that always skies all balls looking for an imaginary Vardy in Iheanacho is tantamount to ludicrous. Dude needs to move. If truly he stayed back for a bloody british passport then he really is the one who got himself into this mess. I agine, Vardy had altercation with the coach and the coach benched him and from there the Whole leicester team went playing like there is nothing at stake for the first half. Should we be praying that he (vardy) gets long term injury ? Far from it! I watched the overhyped maddison play nonsense all thru. Dont lemme even start with albrighton. Check the usual Demarai Gray.... Vicmo 2.0. All dribbles, no end product. In a match ur team is trailing by a goal.

I am sorry, any team that has cult figures in them dont go far. And finally, Leicester City is not the right team for Iheanacho.
Iheanacho best performances have been as an SS. Leicester play with 2 upfront. At least 80 percent of his best performances in city came when he played with another striker.
He just needs to improve his allround game.

Unfortunately, iheanacho don enter this one chance called leicester.like I have always said, Leicester is a team set up and built around Vardy. When I saw Albrighton in the team list, I knew there was no way they gonna play well. The team needs to learn teamwork and not seek individual glory. These are the things that happen that drop Iheanacho's stock.

Lastly, I think Iheanacho needs a move away from Leicester. Game time or not. The team is not for him and the earlier he realises that, the better. I know a lot of people may not agree. But fact is Leicester FC never brought out the best in Iheanacho.
Actually Leicester suits him just fine. They are one of the few teams that still play with a 4-4-2. We all know Nacho's best position is as a CF.
He just has to work harder and improve his allround game. Simple.

Iwobi can play outwide. They can play together in games like the Seychelles one
