AIG07: Poor and unbalanced team selection limited the coaches options. Our boys were psychologically unprepared for that encounter. No sense of urgency except for selected few.
Every Nigerian fans are pained but the players are the biggest loosers. Players like Moses Simon will likely not have that world Cup experience.
how will they be psychologically prepared when a journalist enter training ground dey ask Lookman ‘can you prepare Eba? Can you speak Yoruba?’
andrewbaba44: Rohr might not qualify for this World Cup
You saw how we lost to car already ,and with our insha allah GKs they might just cost rohr also
but one thing I give him credit for, he knows how to get the best out of our strikers. Afcon 2019 qualifier and the tournament itself, Ighalo was the top scorer. Afcon 2022 qualifier Osimhen was the top scorer, also scored goals during the group stages of the WC qualifier but Eguavoen took over and our strikers suddenly forgot how to score goals, so bad that we were barely creating scoring chances.
Barryseal: This 38yr old man called Uzoho with his awkward foot steps like a girrafe chasing down a ball of coconut down the stairs. His lack of foot work has been a hindrance to his steps that's why he's always rooted to his spot and can't make a save with his legs. The guy managed to kick the ball out for a corner kick while under no pressure. When you have a goalie who can't kick the ball properly, you will always struggle to build attacks.
if this guy see Uzoho one on one he go too deck am
JohnBullMySon: Y'all shouldn't take this loss too seriously
e pain me o. This Ghana team was there for the taken, they didn’t do anything outstanding but somehow we just had no idea. My Ghanaian colleagues don troll me tire
TheGoodJoe: I repeat and will say it again. We need to get it right. Stop the short cuts. Qualifying for tournaments is mediocre. It means nothing. It is about making a big statement.
Rohr was taking us no where. Even in the next 50years, unless we are okay with just qualifying.
Eguavoen started well but somehow the yes sir thing came to play.
At the end, we need to one day wake up and learn how to okay football. If not, the cycle continues and we will stay satisfied with we qualified.
see as sentiment full your head. Rohr is bad tactics but Eguavoen is because of yes sir men. Call a spade a spade, Egu is a poor coach
BascoVanVeli: We dominated possession and we had way more shots on target. What else could the coach do Did he tell Uzoho not to catch that back Pass It is ridiculous to blame the coach after that performance.
the few min I watched wasn’t good enough, we didn’t play like we wanted it. We didn’t keep their keeper busy, barely carved solid chances
Rohr has to go, there is nothing to regret about it. Rohr tried but he's exhausted tactically. What's the Essence bokoraharam football when we aren't parading Bandits as Players.
We missed out, fine. Let's start afresh with Amuneke. Capital No to foreign Coach.
Rohr had to go but Amunike? No way, just hire a decent foreign coach. That Cameroon coach will be fine
Oasis001: Vindication Merchants should keep shut please. This is not time for I told you so Ish. We are fúckin out of WC for this Year, yet I told you so Brigade wanna be dancing Zazu Zeh.
To me, Eguavoen should return back to his Role fully and let Amuneke fully take charge of the Team. Good News, there will be AFCON next Year, something good to look forward to.
Well done to our Bredas, rep us well in Qatar. Lest I forget, Alloy Agu must be sacked then handed over to EFCC.
maybe I’m overreacting but I feel there are too many people around them, very easy to get distracted. Too many journalists, ex players, officials even family members. This doesn’t look like they have a serious game at hand
According to owngoal both Chuks and Bonnke are injured and won’t play on Tuesday Modified: just saw Tobi Adepoju’s tweet and he confirmed that Bonnke trained today. Owngoal dey lie
Cocking: I don too argue today for newspaper joint so tey my voice don sour like Egusi soup Send me the rear view clip of that video, then I go accept, if not na penalty
drDoom3: One thing I like about Eguavoen from that Ghana game though is his ability to interpret the direction the game was going and at least make some tactical subs to solve specific problems. That Bassey sub for example was a tactical masterclass, it immediately killed all their attacks from that wing where the danger was. His only poor sub was taking out Aribo, If that was Iheanacho he took out it would have been perfect.
With Rohr, no matter how bad a game was going, the guy already had predetermined subs he would put in at 80 mins. I can't remember a game Rohr made tactical subs, his subs were either injury or vibes and inshallah.
my thought is he was trying to preserve Aribo ahead of the second leg, he even tried taking off Moses early but had to take off Chuks instead when he got injured. I think he was trying to keep them for the return leg
JohnBullMySon: I don't want to blame Eguavoen because I think its' too soon and I still believe in him to deliver results.
But you see eh, many Nigerians lack critical thinking. I said it here that Peseiro had the best CV for a Nigerian coach ever. Many people here rejected him and shouted that a local coach is the best thing ever. Judging Peseiro based on the performance of Rohr. How does A relate to B? Coaching has nothing to do with whether you are a citizen of the country or not.
I still think allowing Eguavoen to handle these two games is the best decision , bringing in a new coach would have been a very risky decision
leathalbeast: when i see the nigerian, i wonder why the nff wont go for a portuguese, spanish or dutch coach, these type of coaches can transform nigerian team into super teams, i really liked what the former portuguese coach of cameroon did with the team before he was sacked by arrogant etoo.
if Eguavoen somehow fail to qualify us for the WC , I’d like the NFF to appoint that former Cameroon coach
Meliforme: I think the bottom line is that Nigeria failed to beat Ghana. The weakest Ghanaian team i have seen in a while. This Ghanaian team has a lot of weaknesses, but our coach can't see it to exploit.
in 2000 we went to Kumasi with them Kanu and the likes where we struggled to beat a Ghana team filled with Heart of oaks players. You people should take a chill pill.
