He is being pampered.. Amodu and Keshi didn't get that opportunity... In comparison to the late duo, yes,he has failed!

Amodu yes but keshi? There was no way we could keep keshi, aside from failing to qualify for afcon the mood of the fans then was even worse than now, everybody had lost faith in him. You keep mentioning keshi like he was unjustly fired which wasn't so

JohnBullMySon:
that's why I want iwobi to go to the wing when Onuachu is playing, he can lay accurate crosses for Onuachu.

Onuachu isn't even a starter, operation iwobi on the wings have been tested and failed so there's no point doing it again

JohnBullMySon:
I no dey insult players. Get your facts right.

You're calling uzoho, Uzoho's case is even more controversial. Ezenwa was our keeper when ikeme retired, he kept throughout the qualifiers and did well, when uzoho started playing in Europe, Rohr benched Ezenwa straightaway, there was no struggle whatsoever. Ezenwa only played when there was a friendly in the same window with qualifiers. Like against Zimbabwe. Uzoho kept during the world cup on the hardwork of Ezenwa.

Osimhen was not yet performing during the world cup and afcon. His 20 goals for Charleroi was in the space of two seasons. Osimhen only picked up in July 2019 after afcon when he signed for lille. He displaced Onuachu who was second to ighalo then.

Maduka is our best keeper currently, he does not need to fight for anything, when his club performance drops, a keeper in form will take over. That's how Rohr does. When uzoho lost form big time before afcon, Rohr relegated him to third choice.

As for ndidi, we are saying the same thing, same with sanusi. When you are currently the best, you don't fight with anyone for the position. Same way omeruo benched balogun during afcon and now balogun has come back to bench him again. Dem no dey do fight for shirt in national team, matches no plenty for gambling. Your club performance will determine it. Maduka had already played first team football before starting in Algeria game. Me and you know that the Brazil match was a rare accidental chance for him.

very correct, besides many pundits have criticized Rohr for not having a permanent GK. Seems he settled for Uzoho post Afcon but that unfortunate injury scattered his plan

Barryseal:
Don't mind him. Most Nigerians lack proper education on what global best practice means.

These same people almost killed Keshi for handing the number 10 jersey to a local boy but are cool with a goalie with a couple of club appearances being number 1.

You want to talk about global practice? Go and ask Ter Stegen. Why is that when some things happen in Nigeria some people will start looking for validation from oyinbo man land? Leading up to the world cup Neur who had hardly played for 1 year due to injury was restored as Germany number one ahead of Stegen who was one of the best goalkeepers in Europe that season. When Loew tried to drop Neur, Bayern executives threatened the German FA to restore him as number one or they'll withdraw their players from the national team.

andrewbaba44:
Maduka okoye is the best in his position ? Be deceiving your self ,if na uzoho or akpeyi chop 4 goals against seria Leone una go insult them tire

Uzoho fought with ezenwa who did well during some qualifiers ,forgot so soon ?

Osimhen waited for Ighalo to retire before he took that position or you forgot so soon that he was benched at the afcon by Ighalo despite his good form at Belgium ?

Maduka doesn’t look like he is better than even akpeyi self and you are telling me he is better then all ,I laugh in Chinese ,I have no problem with him starting but saying he fought for that GK shirt is the biggest lie in 2020

You want ndidi to fight with who if I may ask ? One of the best DM in the epl to fight with average players for his shirt abi ,Maduka has never played first team football before taking the eagles shirt

Go tell another person this one and not me

He didn't, he was given the number 1

andrewbaba44:
Lol

See I have nothing against Maduka Okoye

But handing him the number 1 GK without allowing others to fight doesn’t make sense

Hmmmmm, wasn't the first time he'll do something like that sha

Barryseal:
Maduka, the goalkeeper with more national team caps than club first team appearances. Nigeria my country .
Honestly, the NFF should have handed Rohr the p45 immediately he made this guy the national team first goalie.

Really??

jihday:
FIFA have banned CAF president Ahmad from any and every football related activities for 5 years

He was alleged to have used CAF money to send some FA chairman on hajj. I no know who curse Africa with poor leadership

Up there with Messi and Ronaldo!?

Lol

Nice work from iwobi

Iwobi, Aina, Tosin and Ademola all starts for their respective clubs

Olushola216:
The guy is just too good and one slowpoke in the group said he prefer oshimen to haland people can be really funny

Lol, nothing dey surprise me here ever since they said Iheanacho better pass Mbappe and Onyekuru better pass Mahrez

smartsmith0907:
Rohr is a technical adviser same with emenalo...the truth is Nigeria no get coach at all ....our last coach was salisu yusuf...so the truth of the matter now is the appointment of a new head coach who will be working together with the technical adviser....there is huge discrepancies between the role of a technical adviser/ sport director and head coach.

Huh! you once told us that Rohr is good, what changed?

mkrest:
Hector Cuper has once stated his desire to coach the SE, I would like to see that happen

You wouldn't like to see him, his past few jobs have been rubbish. I'd prefer Amunike sef

JohnBullMySon:
you see that world cup. We're reaching there. Nigeria's 2021 team will be more composed as our players would have developed and bonded together by then. Our team is already sitting up and May is still a long time from now. Remember that we beat the same Algeria last time. Our world cup qualifiers record has been consistent. I don't think it will change. For me, the structure makes it easier. You just need to overcome one tough team instead of being in a group of death.

After 4 years na next year them go bond? What are you saying

TheGoodJoe:
That Honduras team was fire. Most of them were in Nigeria 1999 and were high in understanding. David Suazo was a menace also. Later became a too player in the la Liga.

The Italains were the European U20 champions in 1999 and a strong unit. With the brilliant Andreas Pirlo coordinating the team.

Surviving that group showed the quality of the team.

I disagree, that Honduras team wasn't good enough. We drew Italy in a match they saw as dead rubber

quickberry:
They were better than the 2008 squad,if not for Zamorano and his goons...lol

That 2000 team was poor, managed to qualify from the group before chile thrashed them by 4-1

TheGoodJoe:
Just glanced through the list.

I take the 2000 team over 2008. Coupled with the talents that were dropped. That was a creamer set.

Huh, the 2016 who I think are average is much better than the fraudsters from 2000

I norminate smartsmith0907

I will stop supporting SE if Pitso become our coach...

Why?

siralos135:
Leave Joachim Low alone, at least he has won a world cup title with his team. Direct your boot to the appropriate quarter of your immediate concerns-Nigeria!

We overate these guys expecting too much from a bunch of average guys who for majority of them, starting for their club is a matter of insha allah.

Rohr this and that as if other teams are going to be sleeping on the pitch because it is Nigeria.

Y'all talk without fact, the bench warmers in our squad no reach 5

elunico:
Time for Joachim Löw to get the boots.

Should have been given since 2018, pretty obvious he peaked in 2014

smartsmith0907:
What is the same error rohr keep repeating what it his fault we lost 4 goals lead...was he on the pitch

Ha

fabyom:
Ghana was unlucky. They became tired towards the end!

I disagree, they played rubbish Sudan deserved the victory

Confirmed line up: Aina LB, Akpoguma retains RB iheanacho for Osimhen the rest retain their spots

Sudan beats Ghana by a lone goal

This Ghana match dey pepper my eyes

We vex come

MOOD!

do4luv14:
Who and who did ROhr call up to replace Balogun and Osimhen,

BTW, heard Dennis is injured, how true

Only Osimhen who has gone back to Italy and Ezenwa who was left behind didn't travel
