Totally agree TheGoodJoe: As for me, I am more into building in long term gains than celebrating qualification. There was a time we could beat our chest that we can give the best sides in the game a run for their money. We would not only match up to top teams but try to outplay them in every quarter of the game. A good example is our game against Spain in France 98. When Bora, the Super Eagles coach was asked if he was scared of the Spanish team by Sam Atasia Oburu, his reply was, "Spain should be scared of us (Nigeria)."
We were in the group of death but played with bravery in every game.
Today we celebrate tucking our tails in between our legs to qualify. These are short term gains and we are not in any way building a solid team that will have the capability of matching against some of the top teams of the World and giving them a run for their money. We can only maintain a timid fashion if we continue towing in this path. |

Nobody thinks he will play for us. It’s all wishful thinking. The point is he is on fire. But IF EVER he rescinds his decision in this our current circumstance, my bro na open arms oh. But just to put some of U on memory lane I was one of those who strongly mocked Tammy when he was firing blanks. Make una talk am as it is all the time.

Given any player a free pass to the World Cup without even telling him he has some competition is the dumbest thing we ever did. We rolled a red carpet with lots of confetti on it. ChrisKels: I never expected this from you, dont let ur fantasies make u join the deluded band wagon. A Tammy that didn't fancy a world cup chance with Nigeria, will now suddenly stoop so low for one inconsequential Afcon, now that he seems to have rediscovered his form and ripe for the 3lions?
Dream on. The earlier u lot wake up from this slumber... |

If I burn Naija flag for Naija in front of u “patriotic” fellows, you won’t even consider raising a finger at me. That’s really how much we value the flag. TheGoodJoe: Thank you. Tammy can be Messi for all I care. He kissed the Super Eagles good bye when he chose to Ridicule the call-up. That was a disrespect to the country, flag and people of the country.
I do not blame him sha? I blame Pinnick who treat these egoistic people as if our lives depend on them. |

If I was really a trbalistic person I would have been angry as regards what he said. School him my friend. edi287: He was being blunt. We really wanted him but he chose England. Simple as that. The red carpet treatment was just a figure of speech. I think Akpoguma was even more 'disrespectful' but he doesn't even get have the hate Tammy does. |

Well u would ask me the reason. And let me inform u. Tammy said we rollled the red carpet. That’s exactly what we did pre-world Cup. Our approach was faulty. Pinnick’s utterances all along was cocky. I say things as it is. And that’s what the young man did. Some of us as are embarrassed just because we are not putting things in perspective. Humility017: I don't expect you to say something else... when he is of same tribe with you...
unlike komekn who bluntly don't hide his allegiance for players reason because they're borough boys or warri guys like him... you silently do...yours.. ever since I know this...I stopped chiding forgiveness because many of us are hypocrites and even worse than him....
so I know even if Tammy was to insult the super eagles...you will never be embarrassed. |

Rohr expresses worry over Uzoho’s club status
January 24, 2019 The Super Eagles Coach, Gernot Rohr has expressed worry over the team’s goalkeeper, Francis Uzoho’s inability to maintain the number one spot in his Segunda Division Club, Elche.
Rohr made the comment on the sidelines of the Nigeria Professional Football League Match Day 4 between MFM FC and Rangers International FC of Enugu.
NAN reports that the Super Eagles gaffer was in the stands to watch out for outstanding players among the NPFL players.
Reports have it that the Uzoho, 20, and Eagles number one shot stopper who recently quit bachelorhood has fallen down the pecking order in the goalkeeping role for his club in Spain.
The lanky goaltender is now used sparingly after the club, Elche procured the services of another goalkeeper during the winter transfer, a development the Franco-German coach is not comfortable with.

Rohr said that though Uzoho remains in his plan, his inability to peg a starting role for his club is a source of concern.
“I am watching the development of our number one goalkeeper, Uzoho because his club has bought a new goalkeeper and he is now in second place with them.
“I will like to see him as number one goalkeeper and not a substitute in a Spanish second league. I know that the level is high in Spain.
“We also have other players in Spain doing very well because I do monitor them to see how they are doing, their progress and fitness,” he said.
Rohr said that he was however happy that some other players plying their trade in Spain are having the needed playing time and doing well with their clubs.
“Samuel Chukwueze and Kenneth Omeruo are presently doing well and I am happy with that because they are part of the main team.
“When I first invited Chukwueze to the team, many were surprised with my action, but then, I knew his level, that he has lots of quality and he is already showing that.
“Same thing with Omeruo when he played the last game for us in South Africa, he is a good central defender and I am happy he is being recognised in his club.
“We also have Moses Simon who did very well in the game against Barcelona FC in their last game. We also have him in our plans too,” he said.

Rohr leaves Eagles’ door open for Moses’ return, butON JANUARY 23, 2019 7:24 Super Eagles Coach, Gernot Rohr, on Wednesday, said that although the door of the team was still open for the team’s ace winger, Victor Moses, that he must show commitment and fight for shirt. Rohr and Moses Man City not letting-up in pursuit of Liverpool, says Gabriel Jesus Rohr made the comment on the sidelines of the Nigeria Professional Football League (NPFL) Match Day 4 between MFM FC and Rangers International FC of Enugu. NAN reports that the Super Eagles gaffer was on the stands to watch out for outstanding players among the NPFL players. On Moses comeback to the team after announcing his premature retirement after the World Cup in Russia, Rohr said he appreciated Moses’ quality as a winger. “Victor Moses is a player with lots of quality but stopped playing for the National team after the World Cup. We have to respect his decision not to play again. “if he wants to come back to the team, it is okay but he must show a lot of motivation, he must show that he is fit to play for the team because we have other players playing well in his position now. “Moses has to be strong to come back to the team because we have more options on the wings now like Samuel Kalu, Samuel Chukwueze, Alex Iwobi and Ahmed Musa. All these players are on his wings. “Victor Moses comeback is a good news for us,” he said. Rohr said that he would present the fittest team in the last match of the AFCON qualifiers against Seychelles and the friendly match against Egypt. “We will invite the fittest players for the AFCON qualifiers against Seychelles and the friendly match against Egypt. The best of them will play the Match. “With the level at which some of the players are now in their different clubs, I believe they should turn that form to the national team. “For the local-based players, the ones that are good among them will surely be invited to the team. I regret that the league had a long break after the last season which affected the fitness of the players. “But now that the league is on, myself and my assistants are here to watch out for the outstanding ones that can make the team,” he said.

 TheGoodJoe: Terrible move as far as I am concerned. Mikel is an artist when it comes to clever build up plays and he thrived when he is orchestrating a very fluid motion of the ball.
He is going to play for Tony Pullis, a coach known for his Conservative style of play. Mikel will play due to his experience and ability to read the opponents attacking play. However, we are not going to get to see his artistry at Boro.
Wish Mikel aka Odogwu the best.
Roma would have been a fantastic move due to their historical style of play. |
