Please tell me what you make out of this. I was only analyzing Rohr’s statement

---

“The games against Poland and Serbia is a big chance for the new players to show they have what it takes to play for us. As you know the next game will be in May so now is time for everyone who want to go to Russia to prove their quality.

“The two games are also important for us because the last time we played together was in November against Argentina. So, it will be an opportunity to work together again before the World Cup.

“In May, we will release another 30-man list for the other friendly games from which we will draw the final list for the World Cup,” he told CompleteSports.

ChrisKels:
Who else thinks Shehu won't be going to Russia unless Echiejile is dropped? Really hard to stomach but we gotta be real and sincere. I can see and at the same time, feel it.

Mujtahida:
If na Kunu count me in. But I no join to chop Gworo. How the weekend? Next week we go see the full list. Already we know about four invited players: Etebo, Idowu, Joel Obi, Omeruo

Mujtahida:
That Kunnu and Kola combination dey cos purging ooo. Especially if you dey watch Arsenal match on top.

elyte89:
SAVAGE!!!

Joebie:
Was Kayode invited for March friendlies? Truly I tell you today, it will be very hard (not impossible) for any player not invited for this month’s friendlies to make it to Russia. I’m speaking from analyzing Rohr’s recent statements.

Modified.
Ighalo got lucky. The Cameroon tie made Rohr look his way. And he grabbed his chance

realpoacher:
Its obvious and glaring now what you stand for.... Mediocrity, ineptitude, failure, waste

Look in the mirror... Yea, those are what is staring back at you

realpoacher:
Oga you are a big disappointment to the word experience!... Look at how you are defending a big blunder made by an Experienced Goalkeeper at a shot from 25 yards. Your defense of this ineptitude speaks volumes about your knowledge about football.

If you were a coach, your team will be terrible. I will simply tell my players to keep taking direct shots at your keeper because he will fumble at it and he will concede 6.

A keeper that cannot see the flight of the ball from 25 yards out both from open play and from set-piece, is that one a keeper?... SMH

Sorry I meant to ask forgiveness to post a video evidence of it to backup his claims not that I posted anything

Posted a video evidence of it

somehow:
Same way Messi scored his free kick against Etebor's Las palmas few days ago. He put it where the keeper was initially standing.

Humility017:
I guess had it been uzoho conceded those goals...your opinions would have been different.

let the truth be said.....that goal keeper faulted in the 2nd goal.

bengine:
Comparing this free-kick to messi's free-kick is like comparing a Ferrari to a fiat punto..all messi's free-kick have power, dip and curl..those 3 combinations are difficult for any gk so I could make a case for Enyeama..and perhaps that messi's fk went over the wall and not the area covered by Enyeama..how many keepers in the world can truly even save that fk by messi..

bengine:
If a GK at 30 doesn't know how to position well for a free-kick that far, you can't train it out of him.you can't teach old dogs new tricks.. and in all your e experience sir, would you expect this kind of stupid mistakes from a supposedly world cup goalie?

Even the first goal he conceded makes him look bad..it should be difficult for any good Gk to be beaten from 25yards out..I know some shots have power, curl and dip..this goal doesn't even come close..please this guy would be our downfall at the world cup if he starts..

tbaba1234:
I guess we are looking at this from different perspectives..

When a keeper concedes from a fairly routine free kick from that distance and in the area he was supposed to cover, i would rank it as a blunder. In your opinion, you think that is harsh.

It is not as if the free kick taker did anything extraordinary.

bengine:
And this is the goal keeper we some are sticking their heads for in russia..what's the difference between the one he conceded against Argentina and this one, misjudging freekicks, bad positioning, guessing like its a pk being taken..in fact both goals he conceded was all bad positioning..

We are in serious trouble if this guys starts games for us in russia..

zicky:
Really not the blunder we expected like the one against Argentina but very very poor goalkeeping

tbaba1234:
Blunder: A mistake/error

That is exactly what that was..

tbaba1234:
Is the wrong anticipation not a blunder? He misread the ball from such a distance and it led to a goal.

Goalies who concede from the center circle are mostly poorly positioned which makes it difficult to recover.

For a closer free kick, there is less reaction time than from those that are far away.

Also note, that he conceded from the area which the keeper is supposed to cover and not the area of the wall.

tbaba1234:
The distance was too far for Akpeyi to concede from that. He should not be conceding from that distance.

For Messi's goal, Enyeama stood far away from the left side, probably expecting Messi to change direction. Even if Enyeama was well positioned, he could have still missed the ball.

I think, the Chippa fan is also reacting to past Akpeyi's error . I understand, he made an error in his previous match.

tbaba1234:
Akpeyi blunder for the second goal...

Shehu, one of the top performers for Bursaspor.. The man is finally settling in..

cc:icon4s

Kog45:
Don't run o,wait for icon4s to answer you,i will not but icon4s would do justice,so wait.

Kog45:
Pls try and read my original comment then you would understand better coz sometimes am always lost here,i thought we are here for football analysis and discussion.

I think am not Rohr who said inactive Alampasu is among the five keepers is considering for WC,pls be logical on this,am i Rohr who named him,so what a fuss.

It seems some don't even understand why we are here,takes things personally and always emotive and sentimental in their thinking as if we are here to fight.

Pls am very sorry to say this,have been following Eagles since 1980 so i just don't talk or saying anything for sake of it.

Ask icon4s or goldfish80, am always against Alampasu calling cos i believe so much on Akpeyi until Argentina match changed my mind.

I will not deceive you i don't rate Alampasu.

darkelf:
While we still deliberate on our GK issue, Antoine greizman just scored 4 goals in a league match for Atletico Madrid.

How I wish our strikers were banging goals like this. This is what you call WC form.

Honestly, I think we need to raise the bar higher for our attackers. It shouldn't be just enough to feature regularly.

More importantly, you need to be productive in front of goal.

TheGoodJoe:
My wish is that first, we should always out play our opponents. That is why I do not like our team on the backfoot.

Mujtahida:
Icon4s whenever there's talk about taking rookie goalkeepers to the WC

TheGoodJoe:
I love good football and like seeing the best always on the pitch. As for our team, I believe with the right tactics and determination, we can conquer any team.
