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.

He didn’t mention Moses Simon as well. But wait for my next post

He mentioned Kalu, Chukwueze, Iwobi and musa but not Onyekuru.

Rohr leaves Eagles’ door open for Moses’ return, but
ON 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.

That your last line get as e be.

Mickael2:
Absolutely the worst transfer of this period by far . Barca in need of a backup striker goes ahead to buy KPB who is not an out and out striker ahead of Ighalo who is actually a proven goalscorer in a top league, I mean I understand that Ighalo's agents pointed out that he doesn't want a loan move but a permanent move and that is more than what Barca are asking for but come on, KPBhuh?? I know it is a done deal but I pray that stuff doesn't go through, maybe he fails his medical or something, you never know what you will get with these Ghanaians and their banku

That’s essentially my point
isan:
akpeyi and ezenwa will never really push uzoho hard for the no1 shirt if Alampasu keep playing he should be given a chance

Many players have put in good performances at one time in the past. But it has to be present continuous top performance. It’s not like he was top notch at the WCQs. He did the needed though.

Icon4s:
Have you rather for once questioned why he was 3rd choice considering his performances during the WCQ?
Sports › Re: "The Super Eagles Thread: The Road To AFCON 2027, 2028 And 2030 World Cup by Joebie: 11:25pm On Jan 20, 2019
We are not expecting Rohr’s list soon. I just dey talk my mind atm. We will meet again next weekend lol.

Icon4s:
So cool down and watch the young man perform first before the clamor for invitation.
Sports › Re: "The Super Eagles Thread: The Road To AFCON 2027, 2028 And 2030 World Cup by Joebie: 11:22pm On Jan 20, 2019
I will always criticize his invitation. A third choice keeper in the NPFL at the time should not be getting a National team call up. It sets a wrong precedence.
Icon4s:
Are you by any means referring to Ezenwa. Do you know the years of experience that Bros has acquired both in club Football and the national team?

Ikechukwu Ezenwa is a proven SE Goalkeeper and will always get a call up.
Sports › Re: "The Super Eagles Thread: The Road To AFCON 2027, 2028 And 2030 World Cup by Joebie: 11:19pm On Jan 20, 2019
It’s not like our next AFCON qualifier would be played tomorrow.

Icon4s:
Which double standards? Bros cool down. This is Alampasu's first game in about 2yrs. Let's hope he gets another opportunity next game and subsequent games.
Sports › Re: "The Super Eagles Thread: The Road To AFCON 2027, 2028 And 2030 World Cup by Joebie: 11:17pm On Jan 20, 2019
I’m saying even some minutes. We’ve had keepers who didn’t even feature for one minute in club football. So what makes them better now? we put faith in them regardless. Keep the completion fierce, it would bring out the best in all of them.

Icon4s:
Who set that standard? Some minutes? Or u probably meant some games?
Sports › Re: "The Super Eagles Thread: The Road To AFCON 2027, 2028 And 2030 World Cup by Joebie: 11:14pm On Jan 20, 2019
Let’s not apply double standards here.
We all criticized Ezenwa’s invitation in the past.

Icon4s:
That was a decision taken in desperation. We are not under such a situation now.

Let us see Alampasu play more games first and then we know whether he deserves a call up or not.
Sports › Re: "The Super Eagles Thread: The Road To AFCON 2027, 2028 And 2030 World Cup by Joebie: 11:11pm On Jan 20, 2019
Going by the standard set in the past any GK who gets some minutes in top flight football should EASILY get an invitation, coupled with the fact that we don’t really have SOLID options. I’ve always canvassed for new
competition when necessary.
Icon4s:
With just this one game or with the expectation that he will play more games?
Sports › Re: "The Super Eagles Thread: The Road To AFCON 2027, 2028 And 2030 World Cup by Joebie: 11:08pm On Jan 20, 2019
Like Uzoho was doing pre-WC.
Icon4s:
Bros relax and let Alampasu play more games and probably pin down that first team shirt first.
Sports › Re: "The Super Eagles Thread: The Road To AFCON 2027, 2028 And 2030 World Cup by Joebie: 11:06pm On Jan 20, 2019
Una don forget how Uzoho go WC abi. Our GK department is far from competitive. Wake up to the reality.

Yes that’s the point. Uzoho was benched in his last game. Although Uzoho is ahead, Alampasu only needs more games to stake a claim to the number one shirt. But Rohr decides at the end. Alampasu deserves a recall to to the SE though.

tbaba1234:
Hopefully, he keeps playing till the end of the season.
