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. READ ALSO: Minimum wage: Tripartite committee agreed on N27,000, Buhari tells NASS 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. (NAN) |
He didn’t mention Moses Simon as well. But wait for my next post tbaba1234: |
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.

Mikel Obi due for Middlesbrough medical? |
Ehen? Nigerian never fail medical abi? Mickael2: |
That your last line get as e be. Mickael2: |
Aminu Umar on the scoresheet for Rizespor. They now lead Kasimpasa 1-0 away |
That’s essentially my point isan: |
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: |
We are not expecting Rohr’s list soon. I just dey talk my mind atm. We will meet again next weekend lol. Icon4s: |
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: |
It’s not like our next AFCON qualifier would be played tomorrow. Icon4s: |
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: |
Let’s not apply double standards here. We all criticized Ezenwa’s invitation in the past. Icon4s: |
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: |
Like Uzoho was doing pre-WC. Icon4s: |
Una don forget how Uzoho go WC abi. Our GK department is far from competitive. Wake up to the reality. andrew444: |
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: |
This na top-flight game na. Where is Uzoho playing again, remind me? Icon4s: |
Now Uzoho has real competition. tbaba1234: |
Oga wants a clean sheet on his debut badly. Uzoho, Alampasu and Ezenwa for SE — not bad. tbaba1234: |
Alams yellow-carded. Wetin him do tbaba1234 ? |
Hahaha komekn: |
Komekn I no fit correct u for English o, but I go jump on this misspelling for broken. It’s biko not beeco. komekn: |
