Ighalo is needed. Simple

While Ighalo maybe off form, I still think he's our best allround striker. Iheanacho and Simi are not better lone strikers.. this is a fact. We are yet to try Ighalo in a 2 man striking role so him getting dissed the way he has is just crazy.
I personally think he'd be a better foil for Musa than Iheanacho. Yes Iheanacho is the better finisher and can give you a nice final pass once in a while, but he can't hold play up in the slightest.
People need to lay off Ighalo. He just like Joel Obi are off form at the wrong moment.

bengine:
Bros Abegi joor..that's all he does, hold up play...Naa hold up play go win us games...if you want to understand a dynamic forward, that's exactly what musa and nacho did.. The only thing I didn't like was why they were putting the ball in the air when u were playing musa and nacho..

If Ighalo had started this game..we would most likely loose..his movements are just poor as a striker...

We don't know how well he'd perform if he played alongside Iheanacho or Musa. He has been poor but I think he isn't that bad on his day

Lucque:
hold up play my ass...na holdup play we go chop..

Loool but he did. Yeah he should've had an assist. But he was ok

forgiveness:
Man of match! Hmmm! I someone agree because at one stage I no longer worry about those set pieces and long balls because the defense was so improved and solid with him. Wow!

Make Rohr no drop am Ooooo.

Rohr dey craze? If we play a back 4, let him come in for Troost.

forgiveness:
He changed Etebo for Iwobi.

Iwobi for don score if Ighalo passed on time

He was great second half. Ighalo showed some good hold up play today

forgiveness:
You no lie. He dealt with every aerial balls wella and his experience brought calmness to our defence.

Wow!

Man Of the Match in my opinion. It'll be hard for Rohr to bench him now

Mikel has dislocated his hand

Good second half from Etebo.

goldfish80:
Very Inexperienced challenge from Ebuehi

Yeah good thing we didn't concede.

Omeruo has been superb.

Musa of 2014 vs Argentina has returned(since someone reported my post)

Iheanacho's set pieces has been on point today

Goal!!! That's more like it!!

Etebo must have been reading this thread. Nor a bad start

forgiveness:
I agree. Or we move him else where.

Might as well swap with Mikel or bring in Iwobi

goldfish80:
It's not true. Some believed the hogwash that he was Liverpool bound. Lol

Well I never saw him anything more than a destroyer..a great one at that.

Oasis007:
Are you watching the Game at all?! He's playing ahead of Mikel and Etebo..... more like a B2B Midfielder.

Sometimes he's hiding from/for passes. He rarely comes back to help in building up play from Defence!

I swear..... no need to retain Rohr if we lose this Match.

Yeah but that is to win the ball and pass it. Etebo is our biggest disappointment attacking wise.

Looks like we're not winning this game

So this is how we're going to beat Argentina and get to the quarters according to some people??

Oasis007:
Ndidi is offering nothing in this Match! We've overrated him sef. He's simply a good Tackler, nothing more!

I think we've always known that. He can't be blamed for our lack of penetration in the final third

Goke7:
no one wants to take responsibility you mean, it's best we come back home, is this how we want to play again with argentina?

Etebo needs to be subbed

komekn:
Been driving at break neck speed to get where I can watch the match from work.

I am now very Afraid.

[/b]Crossing the ball into the 18 and we have no height or physical presence is a complete waste of time[b].

Who will give us hold up play from the forwatd line If we launch vthe ball forward from w quick break.

Uzoho kicking the ball out is no longer an option we have to build from the back. Can we out pass the Icelanders and feed through balls to KC and Musa.

Rohr is simply clueless. The sooner people see this, the better.
Etebo who is meant to give us penetration is poor so far. No one in the final third is able to hold on to the ball. Nacho and Musa are essentially useless if it remains like this

No penetration or whatsoever. Iwobi and Ebuehi are needed second half

Who are we crossing in the box to

Joebie:
The danger in this result is that our players may be feeling like some of you now. And Rohr would be feeling vindicated. That’s not good going into the final matches.

Gbam!! It's the typical naija attitude. We said the same thing during the friendlies about Croatia not being that great. Now see am.
Now we are trying to console ourselves with today's result.

tbaba1234:
They put in effort but our organization was very good. We just lacked attacking bite.

Na they gave us space and let us have the ball. We didn't do anything with it

You people sha. Croatia didn't put this much effort against us...Infact they didn't even need to go up a gear against us.

forgiveness:
Hahahahahaha! Croatia average team dey beat almighty Argentina! Bhuuuhahaha!

Abeg! Rohr.. You try for this one. If no bi mistake. We for carry draw last last.

If Croatia been play like this against us, e for reach 5

tbaba1234:
How many minutes have you played him?

Iheanacho is more mobile and more clinical..

If i play Ogu, it will not be in defence

If Ogu is played in Defence - it has to be a 3-5-2.

Then again, I can see Rohr playing him as a CB in a 4 man defence to help with build up play and free Mikel as a 10. Onazi/Ndidi will sit in front of the back 4 and clean up.
Still not a good idea for me. Mikel as a 10 should be an afterthought niw

soetanoreoluwa:
442 formation... Surprise surprise...


Heart racing

Rohr is out of his mind.
