Onazi spoke out but nobody took him serious. "We are just doing the same thing all over again, the same formation. Some are running for team while others are just trekking forming boss.
Rohr always make like for like substations no invention nothing just the same thing all over again pathetic.

I said what I read and heard. Will try and create time to watch the match myself

Oasis007:


GOtv is showing the Replay now. I really can't dare to watch it sha.

Your info is incorrect. The core of that team are highly experience players not under 23 please. Gyan, Muntari, Asamaoh, Panstail, Mensah, Prince Boateng etc

Geofavor:
The problem is in the set of players we always take to the world cup. They don't have enough energy to compete on a world level. They can only do well against fellow 'heavy' africans.
Our players get tired quickly. They can't RUN and CHARGE their opponents for 90 minutes like the south americans and europeans do.

If we are to go reasonably far in the next world cup, we need to do what Ghana did in 2010: use young players ( under 23) that have all played together for a while, probably a team of players from the youth team all promoted to the super eagles. This is the only way we will do well on a world stage.

With the statement white onigbinde made to the press he is not ready to change nothing. However, I believe we will beat Iceland and draw Argentina to qualify. I read we were fouled a lot abit technically? but the ref did not blow for the fouls only to award Croatia a penalty.

Please do not put your heart to it. At the end of it all, It is just a game just like any other sport. We are out. See you at Qatar 2022.

quite unfortunate!!.

safarigirl:
lol
The man was obviously not takih notes during those friendlies.

Currently not watching the game. However, I find it so hard to believe that Rohr is playing 4-3-3 and also playing Shehu as right back. So why did they play all those friendly matches.

Ighalo is our 9 then followed by Simmy. Nacho should play SS not top 9. Simple

elyte89:
.Nigeria vs Argentina friendly?



Am sure some peeps will still make reference to this match in 2022 Qatar to make a case for a player

since when? I mean recently. Poland, England, DRC and Czech

COOL10:
.

Nothing impressive,you say? What about the NGR vs ARG friendly? #ignorance

Truth be told, iheanacho has done nothing really impressive or spectacular in all our friendly matches. I wonder why some peeps want him to start ahead of Ighalo. #sentiment

With this formation, our guys will be running for 90 minutes. Close mark them, do not give them breathing space to pass out from their defence. I know that Ndidi and Etebo will be full of running and if we are to come out of this match alive, it will be how well they both play. Yes we can, let's go naija

Danielnino00:
Nop... Etebo is playing CMF with Mikel behind d striker...

uhhhh, nice talk. The great mujtaa has spoken.

Mujtahida:
Na true ooo but that tension dey sweet at least na for a season. Life is generally without moments of excitement so that explains why people are putting themselves in a coil

Are you watching guys. This game is not for the faint hearted. Naija boys prove yourself tonight. Please do not engage in betting, there are no minors in football anymore. Just relax and enjoy the world cup. No kill yourself on top soccer, there are many more world cups to be played. My 2cent

yes boss! hope the super Eagles will make us happy tomorrow

My chairest chairman fabyom,baba i just dey observe as events dey unfold for thread


Trust me,I will back tmao against croatia


Thanks baba.

Yessoo, my best film ever. Amazing quote from a wonderful movie TROY.

realpoacher:
Let them say that I lived in the time of C. Ronaldo.. The tamer of forces

Let them say that I lived in the time of Messi... The wonder kid

The both of them are the greatest footballers that ever liveth

They make the striking position which is so difficult to other strikers look so ordinary

They make football so beautiful and look so easy

We are blessed to have them in our lifetime

These two are not humans,.. No!... They are Aliens from outer space,.. They are from the Seventh Realm


NASA look no further in search of lifes in other planets.... Two of the extra terrestrial lifeforms are already dwelling amongst us

People, fans, Media, and Coaches,.. Do not try to compare these two against the other anymore because every time you do that they always raise the bar and push the limits


Look at a Center forward like C. Ronaldo at age 33...look at how much runnings he did today... He ran tirelessly tonight when many players or strikers at his Age will probably find difficult to do,

Messi is 32, at his Age many players are adjudged to be old and will be dropped but look at what he still does


Am sorry, as their era fades away gradually... For a long time coming, the world won't see any of them soon, not to talk more of having two of such comparison in the same era

I am awed and honored

I just love this beautiful game of football

bros you dey fall my hand. Go read your news and telling which club wan die on top our bench warmer Ahmed Musa. EOD

andrew444:
Balhanda is 28 now,glatasaray has won the league with him again,in your super eagles team only mikel and Wilfred ndidi will make galatasaray team.

Elyte89 how far bro. why you silent nowwww?

Do not worry my pellow nigeyians (in buhari's voice) tomorrow will be a very good good night. Happy Eid El Fitri to the boss himself @tbaba123456789 and my Muslims brothers and sisters. Wishing you many more awesome years in the land of the living

sorry to bust your bubble. Naija does not give up not only in football but in every fascet of life. We fight to the end. Greatest comeback in football history. Damman Miracle, Atlanta 96 against Brazil and Argentina and many more. Please do not compare Naija grit with that of Ghana. We are come back kings!! Underrate and Underestimate Naija at your Peril. Go back to hidden.

KK555:
What was the result of last night's match between Iceland and Ghana? You lot need to learn but your arrogance won't let you. Your downfall.
If you on the high, make it count. Ghana was prior to Brazil 2014. In 2011, Ghana was at Wembley, the result was 1-1 at the end of 90 mins. Asamoah Gyan scored to deny them victory. On the 6th of june, i believe the whole of Africans wanted to see Nigeria beat them or at least get a draw but Nigeria came up short. Like Ghana prior to Brazil 2014, Nigeria did well qualifying out of a tight group, not even Shehu's error could deny them a place in Russia but do you believe that this team would fly high in Russia? Are you convinced with their plays so far? mind you, this is supposedly the best prepared Eagles team since 1994. No issues of money, quality friendly matches, motivation from either the government or NFF.

You should focus on the Nigeria doing well in Russia than wasting your energy on Iceland vs Ghana result. Ghana does not have Nigeria's money but when it comes to grit and no nonsense attitude towards opponents, you can rate them high and bank on them to deliver.

It was that no nonsense attitude that cost Nigeria the match with Athletico Madrid in Nigeria. Thomas Partey bossed the midfield and made Nigerian boys look like kids. None could match his physical and mental strength.

At 0-2 down, people like you are having orgasm but your sort of attitude is their strength. They make you eat your words.

Ghana does not give up.

@Supernerd begged and even prostrated for me to come back. He is an Elder here and I must respect him, that's why I am here ooo.
But I thought you are my friend, haahha aye le ooo.

ChrisKels:
No I no dey exercise bkus im sad with you, u promised not to come back, but now your here again

lolll, one love.

ChrisKels:
Lol psychologist I sight u

Trying to support your view point. Bro, try to exercise patient why reading stuffs here.

ChrisKels:
What has this piece got to do with the endorsements?

Another off key

Bros, I do think you understand the English Language "body language".

ChrisKels:
Balderdash!!! Utter crap!! What if I told you that jubilation was to spite the English fans for their displeasure with his choice of nationality? Ogbeni Aina has the passion stop this puerile jibes already

often times the coach do start Lallana or Ox ahead of Alli isn't that ridiculous. Can you compare Tottenham Alli's to England. No. His body language playing for Tottenham shows excitement but he looks bored playing for England.

ChrisKels:
Dele Alli is an English player so also is Tammy, Welbeck , Sturridge etc

I doubt Alli, Lingard and Co, presently have better endorsements.

You can prove me wrong

Iwobi's Joy and passion playing for Nigeria makes me happy. After scoring that goal see the way he was jumping up using his hand to signal to the Nigerian supporters to Shout.
Body language matters in football, sometimes some players that are not so good starts ahead of the others because of their body language.
That's why LINGARD starts ahead of MARTIAL.
AINA's body language playing for us does not show enough passion maybe that was why he was drop.

My good bro, thank you jaree. It is for the love of the country. You are an Elder here, you have spoken and I must obey. I am back albeit reluctantly yyy lolll

TheSuperNerd:
Sir Fabyom... abeg don't quit the thread ooooo.... Haahahahahahahaha.... Na adrenaline rush of excitement (I wonder what mood you were in that day) make you drop that bold comment. England were always the favorites but I was convinced we would give them a good game. I predicted a 2-2 draw with a few days to the game when discussing with my buddies but alas we fell a bit short of that.

Abeg no quit the thread. lol... Just next time don't be like that fan from Ghana who once famously said...

"If Ghana loses, I will cut off my head"


When growing up as a kid I used to hear that comment a lot on Sports radio Brila FM Lagos. looollll

That is why it is called a friendly match. It helps to separate pretenders from Koko. Tyrone Ebeuhi come marry my daughter abeg. You too much

chrisooblog:
Onazi was utterly rubbish truth be told that matuidi tackle four years ago did him in. Joel has finally shown that he's not it. Honestly those 2 deserve to be dropped for such a shambolic first half. Victor moses also needs to be brought down to earth all this prima donna rubbish is irritating. Yes Francis uzoho should have done better with harry kane's goal but after all the pressure he was under from the english attack I think we can cut him some slack.

Overall a disastrous game was redeemed with a good performance in the second half team still needs serious work. As for rohr as much as I commend him for making the tactical switch and enforcing personal changes he can't honestly tell me that he sees onazi And joel in training and still thinks they deserved a starting place really poor decision from him.

Haven't lost hope in the team come rain come sunshine I will still back them but at least one good outcome from this game is that we can all now calm down and manage our expectations.

Let's go super eagles

Yesso, I am saying my goodbye lolll

Dreamswayne:
where that guy wey go quit thread if we lose?!

We have the best players to play 3-5-2. Etebo and Ogu weldone sir. You don shut your doubters up

Shukusheka:
Exactly what I have been saying, we have been struggling because our tactics hasn't been able to match England's 3-5-2 formation. We need to change to 3-5-2 to match them player for player.

It is hard for any team to win a 3-5-2 formation playing another formation. What happened to the formation that defeated Argentina. Return the favour play 3-5-2 Also. Remove ighalo for simmy Joel for Tyrone, onazi for Awaziem/omeruo. shehu for musa. Mikel should move to 4. Iwobi 10. Then leave moses, musa and simmy upfront. We can still savage this game.
