mostob:

BTW the way all these players try to sound English by force is hilarious o..see as Lukman become Lookman ..one was even calling himself Hybe instead of Ibe

There's no fixed way of spelling Lukman, it's Arabic not Yoruba or English I've seen Luqman before no be about trying to sound or look English

forgiveness:
How many times will he play against Cavani? Maybe just twice but he stands the chance to play against the best defenders and strikers in the UEFA Champions League with Galatasary.

For less than 6 games because they won't pass the group stage

Who move Kelechi slippers o, abi McGuire don carry am go Man Utd

Igbekeme?

Yeah

Danielnino00:
If wishes were horses ..



Shebi u like Rohr?? Don't be surprised to see Musa and Simon retain their starting shirt next month...

the man doesn't even rate the Belgian league... Onyekuru, Kalu and Osimhen were in hot form in Belgium but weren't deemed good enough to start by Rohr...

And is it bad for Musa and Simon to keep playing?

edi287:
Zaragoza are pricing him out of a move. They apparently want 10m for him.

Just 10mill and nobody is willing to pay that? That means he may not be as good as you guys have always painted him

is still the coach?

Earthquake1:
Ivory coast has Pepe and Zaha on both wings, Kessie, Seri and Gbanim in midfield, Aurier and Bailly in defence and they can't win AFCON

And the people are not revolting?

...but super eagles are filled with World class players and we can only win bronze Rhor must go

Jarus:
Okay, let him not score goals.

I love this your response

safarigirl:
Ndidi will not replace Moura once the game has been locked in, you will have to wait till the next week.

If Moura doesn't start, and then isn't brought on at all, that's 0 points

Sure iwobi too won't start, I think he just resumed training sef

andrew444:
Osaze to where ?

Used to play for Lille

Bolowolowo:
Ladies and Gents, our boy Big Vic is truly in good hands. Hands down, best Nigerian transfer in a long while.

add Osaze too

forgiveness:
Ighalo and Iheanacho fumbled at the world cup too.

Iceland not Tahiti

BascoVanVeli:
Yes but almost all the teams he played on were makeshift. Even against Uganda when he had his last chance he didn't join a team he only joined individuals who had just been put together.

confederation was no makeshift I think he replaced the injured Emenike virtually everybody else was present

do4luv14:
i did not said so,
but even if he score 100 goals in a season, his chance of getting call up is zeeelest as 1%

I think I agree with you, he's old and Mr Rhor is looking to cut down the average age plus he's not bringing anything new to the team it's not like he'll suddenly turn to a goal machine he no go still score pass 10/12 goals

forgiveness:
This guy was a consistent performer in the Bundesliga.

Though he was called to the national team at the early stage of his career in the Bundesliga when he scored 12 goals in the league but was ignored ever since then despite the fact that he continued to score double digit goals for another two seasons.

12 and 14 goals for that matter yet looking at Anthony Ujah, he doesn't know how to play.

This is the first time he scored 4 goals in the Bundesliga in a full season. Maybe because he played 9 matches coming on in the last 14 - 8 minutes of those matches.

and why did this happen if I may ask

forgiveness:
That was his first full season after he left the bundesliga for China. He only started 6 games out of 22 matches and managed to score 4 goals.

Despite that, he was bought by Union Berlin for 2m Euros. Can you explain why a club will waste €2m on an average player in the Bundesliga?

Ighalo became a member of Nigeria National team at 26 while Anthony became a member of the national team at 23.

Ighalo was brought back to the team at 28 by Rohr. What is problem if the same Rohr brings back Anthony Ujah to the team at 28?

lol, please don't late act like 2mill is huge funds or Union Berlin are champions league regular the truth us Ujah is an average player we saw him at the confederations cup, nothing to write home about subsequently dropped from the team and nobody raised an eyebrow. He can hit form again and get invited to the national team no wahala but don't paint him like he's one Yekini we should be expecting to see

BascoVanVeli:
I don't think he has ever been given a fair shake.

I think keshi did, confederations cup

Shook it in my veins this is the type of content I love to feel

Icon4s:
If we can get it right with players selection and availability, this crop of our U23s will definitely be a team to watch in the next Olympics. Just the thought of also having Samuel Kalu, Samuel Chukwueze, Henry Onyekuru and Victor Osimhen in the attack of this Dream Team makes you wonder how delightful it will be to watch them against other U23 teams. The Libya return leg was just a case in study

will their clubs release them to us? You know the Olympics isn't a FIFA sanctioned game, besides the U-23 nations cup doesn't fall on FIFA free dates so we'll have to use home based players.

charlesemeka85:
The idiot for score goals tire

and he go get fabregas to be supplying killer passes

I think he'll come back

gustav25:
Onyekuru will bench all Bayern Wingers

Samu is going to Liverpool to bench all their players
Samu is bigger than Villareal

Any Nigerian winger will bench Mahrez at Mancity because he isn't intelligent

Iheanacho Nacho pigmouth is better than mbappe

Iheanacho has Rodgers and will score a gazillion goals

The system at Leceister is making Iheanacho not to Shine

Isaac Success the beast( 3 goals in 10 years)


CLOWNS !!!!

let's face the truth, some people on this thread are really delusional

Barryseal:
Most of those guys were not exactly teenagers when they conquered Africa. The likes of Egwuekwe, MBA and Uzoenyi were close to 30 if not more back in 2013. They were basically discovered in late in their careers, yet they added to our Afcon gold collection.
If the previous national team coaches had believed in them earlier than Keshi did, who knows what would have been?
How is it the players fault that he was discovered late?

Mba was 25 then, 6 months after he was poor at the confederation cup barely a year after he couldn't make the world cup party and nobody batted an eye lid

Desperate Nigerian coaches want NFF to sack Rohr, says Pinnick





President of Nigeria Football Federation (NFF), Amaju Pinnick has revealed that some desperate coaches, who want to take over the Super Eagles’ job, are those engineering some Nigerians to call for the sack of coach Gernot Rohr.

Even before the Super Eagles beat Tunisia in the bronze medal match at the just concluded Egypt 2019 African Cup of Nations (AFCON), some Nigerians had begun a campaign for the NFF to do away with Rohr, claiming that the coach had lost ideas on how to improve the nation’s football.

Speaking with The Guardian yesterday, Pinnick stated that no amount of campaign and blackmail against Rohr would force the NFF to change its stand about him.

“Does it really make sense for the NFF to sack Rohr now?” Pinnick asked. “What are his offenses? Some Nigerian coaches who are so desperate to take over the Super Eagles are those engineering people to mount pressure on the NFF to sack the coach. But we won’t give them that chance. We know them, and what they are capable of offering the nation as coaches. “Nobody can push us around again on issues concerning appointment of coaches. We gave some of them the chance to prove themselves in the past but failed woefully.”

“Rohr still has existing contract with the NFF and we believe in him. We appointed him in 2016 with the mandate to qualify Nigeria to Russia 2018 World Cup, and he did it. The Super Eagles finished unbeaten from a tough Group B that had Zambia, Cameroun and Algeria. We later extended his contract to 2020 after he qualified the team for the Nations Cup. The fact that the Super Eagles couldn’t win the AFCON title in Egypt is not enough for people to clamour for his sack. So many countries are looking for him (Rohr) as we speak. We should be thinking on how to build the team for future challenges and not how to look for money to pay off the coach and his assistance, and then begin the search for new ones. No, that is not in our agenda.

“I want Nigerians to remember where we are coming from. Before Rohr took over, we could not qualify for two editions of the Nations Cup. He qualified us to Russia 2018 with a game in hand and also booked the ticket to Egypt 2019 with a game in hand. And in Egypt, Rohr qualified us to the round of 16 with a game in hand. So, why should we sack him?,” Pinnick queried.

anybody who doesn't know this is new to Naija football

tbaba1234:
Where are these gems??

We should have seen them in the super 6 or the Aeito cup final.

leave them, all the ones Keshi used where are they? From oboabona to Agbim to Salami all gone with the winds.

Save the dates

That's good of Rhor though, no wonder his players like him

tbaba1234:
Lol.. Man that just finished nations cup..

Lille were looking to sell Pepe before completing the deal. Now it looks like Pepe's going to Arsenal.

Osimhen medical is this week.

OK o, until I see official announcement I no dey believe anything, all these media speculation dey tire person

Danielnino00:
