You figured it late. The Poland friendly was the definition of popycock.

still gave them a benefit of the doubt till the England game

Oasis007:


Samson Siasia is tactically better than[b] this white Onigbinde we are calling a foreign Coach[/b].

chai

Mujtahida:
We made it too easy for this wack Croatian team cos I don't see anything hot about their play.

nothing my brother, absolutely nothing

Nigeria, get rid of foreign coaches if you want to do well at the world cup!

goldfish80:
I'd have fired Rohr on the spot if I was Pinick.
No excuses conceded from corner kicks against ENGLAND, Czech and Croatia. Even the second goal conceded in this game came as a result of a poorly defended corner kick.
We were called haters when we blew the whistle.

I had faith in this team until the England friendly when I knew something very serious has happened, our present players lack confidence against teams outside Africa and it's down to the coach, simple

bengine:
Its gonna be hard getting out of this group..make I just enjoy the remaining 2 games....this formation just rendered us ineffective

you say hard? even marcus can't save our ass now, it's all over folks

brandable:
How do we win Argentina and Iceland.

ask marcus pig

kennysville:
Its official that we are being sabotaged by our coach

beginning to think so

safarigirl:
indigenous ones have equally flopped

I think we haven't gotten the right coach.

the late keshi or even siasia won't lose to this croatian side

goldfish80:
If we loose 3 games on a spin. E get as e be oh!

foreign coaches ain't helping our football any longer, the earlier we realize this, the better

forgiveness:
I knew Iwobi will be removed because dat em side dey blunt.

the guy has been poor today

Bolowolowo:
I think we need to make a change. These Croats no even good sef!!!

I tire o

Mujtahida:
Hear me bawo? No be Moses dey spoil our ball?

keep on defending him, just pray we win tonight

Mujtahida:
There's a way you guys criticise that is not fair at all. Once una don pick a player, na dat player una go dey peck.

Ighalo and Moses are the black sheep yet Moses has been just fine.

I hear you

Unlimited22:
We need pace oooo

with which players?

am sorry if we loose or draw this match, am done with supporting foreign coaches to be appointed for our national teams!

goldfish80:
The painful part is that Crotia have not been that good themselves. There's nothing fantastic about them so far but they lead and we are yet to have a shot on target. Tells the whole story.

exactly, their defence is slow and we are not taking advantage, someone should pls tell rohr that the world cup has started and we ain't playing friendlies any longer. Just this match alone can spoil rohr's good achievements so far and if he looses this game, the sports journalists and the entire nation will come for his head immediately after the match. I have said my own o

ChrisKels:
So far, Etebo has been so effective and we have managed to match their midfield but like I always say, playing with an ineffective Ighalo as a point man will never work.

Just like us, the Croats have had more passes in their own half than in ours. Our defense and midfield have been good so far but our attack ain't got no bite.

#My first have observation

By the way, Ekong is impressing his scouts, he has been commanding in the air

courtesy moses and iwobi, very dissapointing

komekn:
After I watched Croatia at Anfield I said what will give us the advantage is one main thing.

PACE X PACE + PACE.

Right now we are not using any.

Shehu is getting terrored it's apparent he lacks pace. Idowu is also getting exposed. We need blistering pace. That's not happening.

Also we are way too defensive. Cross coming in only one man in the box. The distance between the midfield and the attack is too much.

We are not even pressing Croatia we are allowing them way too much time and space.

I'm sorry to say we are disorganised and indisciplined if Etebo stays on the line he clears the ball but he lacks discipline and composure.

Unfortunately we have been POOR

is that not why moses is there?

CaptainStephen:
Many of you won't like this but an Onazi type of player is needed in that midfield

the midfield ain't doing too badly but where are the dazzling runs from iwobi and moses?

safarigirl:
Key in which match?

When we said drop Moses, dem say he be Neymar, Hazard, CR7 in one. Wetin Moses don do?

is it not glaring why keshi dumped him out of his starting eleven in 2014 till babatunde got injured. The earlier we make moses to come in the second half as as psychological fear into our opponents, the better for us. Dude should not be starting our games against teams outside Africa

raindodger13:
It looks like Moses is just looking for a free kick instead of trying to cut the defence open.

thought they say moses is key in this match!

Mickael2:
ask the coach. and this Croatian defence is slow, how we are not utilising pace sure beats me. and we are hoofing long balls to a short Ighalo

this gamble the coach is always doing with the first half and try to correct it in the second half is really baffling

safarigirl:
Iwobi is having stage fright.

Rohr should have started Kelechi, at least if he wants to switch tactics he won't need so many subs. Kelechi and Ebuehi are two flexible players that he abandoned for static guys

but why? this is the only reason we may not go far- stage fright and am surprised it's coming from players who play every week in the epl

Mickael2:
our two most advanced players are Ighalo and Mikel, absolutely no pace there or goal threat either

so why keep musa and iheanacho on the bench if we lack pace

safarigirl:
Ighalo is unlucky and useless once again

Nobody tell me any nonsense about midfield feeding him or not. CR7 was running to collect ball from defense, what can Ighalo do even as hr is at least 5 years younger?

still can't understand why musa and iheanacho can't start games, the croats are not as fast, musa will run them down

Lack of confidence still the major problem with rohr's team. the croats are not even as good as I thought

asdfjklhaha:
Nigeria need to play with confidence

major problem with this present Nigerian team, nothing more!

set piece! Africa's Achilles heel

How I wish we can exchange our defence with that of Iceland, Omo na world cup final straight

Argentina needs to win this match to kill this iceland confidence else na gbege o

Catalyst4real:
So Iran is presently topping a group with Spain and Portugal

na so life be o!
