God bless you my brother. Their reporting was as if we came to the WC to help Argentina qualify
Nigeria's victory over Iceland has simply put back Argentina's destiny into their hands. Although they may still need a favor from Croatia.

That is just the pure fact.

Musa, always scoring braces. 4 braces for Nigeria, 2 for Leicester city and a lot more for CSKA Moscow.
2 Braces for Nigeria you mean.

If Musa remain in front, Nacho must be the one to work with him. The work Nacho put in yesterday was phenomenal and his mobility complimented Musa. Simy will slow the attack and defeats the mobility of the team.
You know when I saw that initial line up that had Ighalo and Simi up front, my heart sank! That combo was just like eating bread with Yam. angry

We needed fluidity, creativity and pace upfront. Musa-Iheanacho combo did just that.

Since long ago, i have stated that Rohr should find a new role for Musa as a striker or supporting striker. His returns from the wings have been very poor. His pace as evident from the second goal is an attribute we really need to exploit.

Musa, on the day he switches on can be very diverstating.

Just rewatched the second half and Nigeria was flying.. Outstanding performance against a very good Iceland team, absolutely dominated the second half.

The difference offensively was iheancho and Musa running into channels. In the friendlies, our lone striker tended to stay in the middle, making it easier for the defenders to mark him out. Musa and Iheanacho were pulling the defenders all over the place.

Leon Balogun is such an intelligent player by the way. The way he picks passes from the defence line. Omeruo was outstanding, involved in both goals. This is the Omeruo of 2014.

If we play like we started this second half against Argentina, We will definitely score, i believe. A win or a draw should be enough. Come on Nigeria!!!
The good thing about this Rohr's team now is that they are unpredictable.
The disorganization is a big headache for those organized teams. Croatia only had one shot on target all day. They found it difficult creating chances.

I hope we scale through the Argentina huddle.

Man I am not a coward, hence I dont shy away from my messes, I shoulder them and deal with them.

Yes I berated Rohr for his blindness. I asked him to take Moses to the WB role which u objected. I was one if not the first to call for the 352 formation. If the formation had failed, I would have bn the one receiving the sticks.

U were always against d formation, now did I come shouting "I told you" 352 would bring us Victory?

I know I am no Saint, but u definitely are not either
Did you not see the 3-5-2 formation I proposed ahead of the Croatia game?

You think you will just adopt a formation in the middle of the WCQ without first having the opportunity of trying it out?

After the friendlies there was no one analyst here who didn't agree the 3-5-2 is the most suitted for this team.

Look I am also a critique of this team, infact there is hardly any player I have never criticised but one thing I still do is to still believe in the team and that they can get better.

Rohr is very brave... Let's give it to him... Looking at the team from the qualifiers... No Echiejile no onazi no shehu no iwobi no Simon.... Ezenwa..... He's not afraid to change... Just that he takes too long to.... Typical old man..... After mourihno and okocha criticized him for playing Mikel too far forward... He had to change.....

Have mercy. Remember u said Uzoho ain't good. Shehu was the best thing since sliced bread grin
My stance on Uzoho was not born out of hatred for him or the team but concerns about his readiness to face the challenge.

And tell me Shehu was not impressive during qualifiers?

All in all I believed in the team and supported them to win. I never wrote them off even though I know there some potential loop holes.

But not so can be said of you and your allies.

You come here to pretend as though you are happy we won but inside you feel hurt that you didn't have the opportunity to say "I told you, I told you".

See man you guys should learn to be patriotic.

Even though we know Argentina are favorite to win our next game we can only be hopeful that we can create the upset.

I cautioned you about the way you are going about writing this our team off but you didn't listen.

After scoring two vital goals to help Nigeria beat Iceland to increase their chances of qualification from the group stage to next round, Ahmed Musa became the first ever Leicester City's player to score a world cup goal.

Still salutations to Rohr for having the guts to dump Mikel in defensive midfield. It takes a man of courage to adapt to any situation he finds himself.
Which Mikel did he DUMP in the defensive midfield.

Did you watch the game at all.
