What about Osaze taking corrections. What do you mean by if true? Are you the one who drafted the tactics?
You are contradicting yourself here, you said he still didn't play to instructions now you said he took corrections

Keshi played with big strong strikers because he relied a lot on long balls. So Martins did not fit into the system. That was why when he tried Martins, he flopped.

Osaze when he got the chance refused to play to instructions. Uche also Blatantly told Keshi that he would not play the way Keshi wanted. There was no way Keshi was going to deal with their ego. Imagine Osimhen telling Rohr he will not play the way Rohr wants...
I'm curious why two players will refuse to play to instruction, they've always played under previous coaches both at club level and NT there's more to it than they told us

Emenike is far big in stature. Martins does not play by receiving long balls, something Emenike did repeatedly under Keshi.

Osaze apologised before Keshi took him but still went on to play off the team tactics.
He played all games, if true he'd have dropped him after the first two games

You people keep making this statement. Keshi wanted a big player who could play in the midfield, after going with another lightweight player in Ramon Azeez.

In the game against France, we were up against a highly physical French team. When it was time for a substitution to replace Onazi, Keshi called Ramon and I exclaimed, "No O! They will kill him on that pitch. Luckily, Mikel signalled to Keshi not to try it and then replaced Onazi with Gabriel.

So, Haruna and Ajagun would not have come in for the extra big man. It was due to strategy he brought in Ruben Gabriel to match the players at his disposal.

So, Rohr is the first coach to introduce transparency to Super Eagles? Has the phantom transparency helped him to win any trophy ? The answer is no. Until you proved how this audio transparency has helped Nigeria to win trophies I suggest you save me the noise. If your reformation is not bringing any positive change what is the essence of it.

I am pretty much done with this topic because apparent you lot have no proof of your claims just typical Nigerian noisemakers! You cant defend your position , Nigga! So far , Rohr has failed with the best set of talent since '94 and '98 squad !
Huh? Apparently you no dey follow Naija football, our squad to the 2010 world cup is far better. We had Osaze, Utaka, Martins, Ideye, Yakubu Kanu etc we can't even boast of a back up striker now, we have a Chuks who's just playing his second season in professional football and struggling to start games for his club

We are talking player management and player invitation, not tactical ability or scouting. Many of our coaches will not be able to manage the ego of some of our players, which is why they resort to players that will be LOYAL to them - often times players that know they do not deserve a place in the team.
Forget ego management, they always spin that story to dump the big boys and bring in their not so popular players

I Still Get N5m Monthly Pension As England’s Ex-player –John Fashanu
The shy-looking Fashanu, who talked about how hard it was to convince players of Nigerian descent to dump their adopted countries to play for the Super Eagles without attractive welfare packages, backed his claim with the challenges some Nigerian football legends have been facing even after their sacrifices for the country.

BY SAHARAREPORTERS, NEW YORKNOV 23, 2019

John Fashanu


Nigerian-born former England international footballer, John Fashanu, has disclosed that he still gets a monthly pension of N5m as an ex-player for his adopted country.

The shy-looking Fashanu, who talked about how hard it was to convince players of Nigerian descent to dump their adopted countries to play for the Super Eagles without attractive welfare packages, backed his claim with the challenges some Nigerian football legends have been facing even after their sacrifices for the country.

Fashanu told Daily Trust, “Till today, I still get my benefits, my pensions. I get N5m monthly as pensions for being an ex-footballer in England and I am now in my 50s.

“Tammy Abraham knows why he hasn’t played for the Super Eagles and it’s because there is more financial benefits playing for England, there is more glory and less wahala. Why do we ask the boy to play for Nigeria and torture him?

"We need to step up. Tammy is a massive miss for Nigeria. Nobody went to London to talk to him and explain to him the benefits of playing for his motherland.

“And when you hear what happened to Kanu Nwankwo, Jay Jay Okocha, did anybody come out to defend him over his tax bills, did anybody come out to defend Kanu when he had issues with his hotel?”
Lieessss

You may have missed my point. I am saying that the current set of players Rohr is working with are some of best talents in Africa and even across the world to stretch it. We agree on that but I want us all to understand and agree that the success of this very set is not in anyway rested on the tactical abilities of Rohr. He inherited those players from our "corrupt" Nigerian coaches. Keshi , Siasia , Eguavon didnt have these sort of talents,when they coached the Eagles....you know ,like Pep struggling to win matches at the Champions League without his Barcelona special talents...lol. In essence, Rohr was simply lucky-in the right place at the right time. He is not a genius! However, I think he knows how to manage players attitudes and behaviors.
Lol

You subtly lobby to keep the post when you envision a bright future and you do this with your body language/non verbal cues. Rohr is not necessarily after money like some shortsighted and visionless African coaches who have no interest in living a legacy but want quick money to stuff their pockets. Unlike Africans who eat while the pot is still on the fire white people think about future. He want to make history as the white man who was the first coach to lead an African team to world cup glory....common, brother you are brighter than this. That man want to steal the sweat of our indigenous coaches.
LMAO, this is laughable at best. Okoto meowmeow

every coach performs better when he is blessed with the best set of players. those your football enthusiast where were they when the super eagles was turned into a laughing stock after missing out on 2 afcons?

i will never discredit rohr because of sentimental and myopic minded personalities both from the media and our football circle. why won't they be mad at rohr when he didn't give agents room to accommodate their below par players plying their trade in obscure leagues and carpenters from the local scene.

bros make we leave matter abeg because we know how corrupt we are as a nation and propaganda is one of the tools the media use in rubbishing whom so ever they are paid to destroy.

i would have been the first to castigate rohr if he hasnt achieved anything since he took over the coaching job of the super eagles but will never go against a man who have rekindled my love for the super eagles. he is not the best but those projected by the media and fans to take over from him are no where close to him tactically.
I'm beginning to think I want Rhor gone and we hire a local coach, since we no wan get sense we must get am by force.

I thought it was a joke.

But it's true the bottom club Paderborn who have lost 9 out of 11 games so far. Have just ripped up the form book and are flogging the mighty Borrussia Dortmund.

I'm shocked.

I can't see Borrussia getting back into this game Paderborn off the bottom for the first time.

Amazing.
surely this should get Favre the sack

Kane was injured almost all of last season and still managed to score 17 goals, he scored 30+ for the previous 4 seasons (in all competitions)

Even the most delusional football fan wouldn't say the bolded, Madrid have Benzema and still want to buy Kane
Perez told you that? Even if true you should know it's only logical for them to replace Benz who is 31 with Kane is 25/26. Truth is they don't have Kane in their sight Mbappe is their target

Wow can you compare Benzema's to Kane's records over the last four seasons?
Benz was always not the top striker when CR7 was there, Madrid formation was 'everybody pass to Ronaldo' and Spur formation is 'everybody pass to Kane' but last season Kane scored 17 while Benz scored 21 and Kane is Tottenham PK taker while Benz hardly does it for Madrid plus Benz is over 30 already. Benz is a very fine player I'll pick him ahead of Kane

Owen's case is a bit different. He had Raul, R9, and Morientes ahead of him yet Perez went and signed him. That move pissed Camacho off.
Owen still had the best goals per minute record in Madrid that season if I'm not mistaken.
Kane sef I'm looking at him with one eye... This last injury he had has taken something from him Sha... Can't put my finger on it.
Didn't even see this post before I made my comment

He should not be scared to move if so

Hope you remember Michael Owen was not the same Liverpool Owen at Madrid ?

Yes he won’t flop but never say never

Hazard is yet to find laliga easy
Owen wasn't a flop tho he wasn't just settled. Was behind R9 and Raul in the perking order but still finished with about 16 league goals
