Karlovich:
Then give your justification for calling up the so called midfielders, none of them have done better than Aribo

What are you even saying? I said there were options Rohr should have called up to strengthen our Midfield. .he only came with 3 MFs. I gave you options but you said NO. Oya list out your quality and active MFs, you twisted it to Aribo comparison. .how does that correlate?

Karlovich:
Nwakali is a bench warmer at Huesca, he doesn't deserve to be in the squad at the moment, stop being sentimental. Rohr needs to shore up his midfield though but it has to be with quality and active players and not to try his luck with players. We all watched Frank Onyeka against Algeria.

I listed about 4 MFs, na only Nwakali you see. Oya tell us the quality and active midfielders that deserve to be called up and why they were not invited. As for Onyeka,he should not be ruled out yet. .he played in a disjointed midfield.

kellycute:
Osimhen is white? What about Sanusi or chukwuede. Abeg you guys should stop this racist talk. Rohr is just clueless!

And that is because they don't have replacements. They are like the spine of that team. Saying he is racist might be too extreme but his recent team selections have been questionable.

Karlovich:
There's no such thing as time to prove oneself, he has played more minutes than the players you mentioned , how is it preferential treatment. What has Nwakali done this season or you want the coach to call up another inactive player.

Nwakali inactive? Ok,Aribo is better than Agu and co but what stop Rohr from calling maybe 2 out of Agu,Nwakali,Tijani,Frank to shore up the midfield? The answer is simply because he does not rate them because they are not white.

Icon79:
You Nigerians are a special breed. So a team of supposedly professional footballers lost a 4 goal lead and all y’all can do is to blame the coach, eh? Unbelievable!!

Who was the coach when the team was leading by 4-0? Please, I am not a big Rohr fan but the blame for today’s defeat squarely lie with players, full stop! We lost the game today due to the unprofessional attitude of our players. Short and simple.

After scoring 4 goals, they relaxed and take their feet off the pedal. What we witnessed in the second half was a team that was playing too relaxed and nonchalantly...making elementary mistakes, giving the ball away easily and refusing to press.

And I can go on and on but I have no time. My point is simple, we lost because of our players and not the coach. The players simply stopped playing to instructions after scoring 4 goal and were instead playing to the gallery.


O pari

Really? What a comic relief!

IDENNAA:
Is it just me or that Rohr doesn't rate our home grown talents. As soon as he finds a foreign born he dumps out home bred players. He only play the ones that he has no other choice than to play. Rohr thinks Nigerian grown talents are inferior. I refuse to accept that Aribo is better than Tijani , Agu or Nwakali! He played Ajayi in a makeshift role with the presence of Agu and Tijani who are natural born midfielders. Under his guide our midfield has become a joke. Sack the racist whitey, already!

my brother, i noticed the same thing. I mean, how can Maduka and Akpo just work straight into the team? Make i no start with the midfield. His team selection is becoming suspicious.

zoboizee:
The retirement of Victor Moses, Mikel Obi & Odion Ighalo has really exposed Gernot Rohr's tactical ineptitude the more in the Super Eagles.

If in Europe or North Africa, he would have been fired long time ago but this is Nigeria, all is well.

Have observed that Zaidu Sanusi is always exposing the backline with his constant positional indiscipline.

Maduka Okoye & Sebatien Osigwe are long far from Super Eagles standard. That's just the truth.

Akpoguma is far from being our first choice right back. Awaziem performs better.

Rohr's style has always been to concede possession to the opponent, and hit the opponent on the counter through the wings. That's all. That's why they hardly string good passes together & the midfield mostly become part of the defence or non-existent in most matches.

Osigwe? How?

wizzie001:
This is perhaps the mindset of the current set of political jobbers we have in our political space, they joined the system when they realized they couldnt beat it... We need a ruthless leader in Nigeria indeed.

Trump comes to mind

Yea but anybody contesting should not only be ruthless but have a solid backing. He/she needs to be surrounded by loyalists that share the same ideology. Ruthlessness only is not enough in Nigeria politics bro.

nelszx:
Onuachu was dribbling himself on the left side

Dem for kuku use the guy as a lamp stand. ?

I just dey here dey laugh. Since the last two friendly matches,i know Rohr na scam. The man had 2 whole match,180 minutes of football to find temporary replacement for Ndidi and Uzoho. We lost today's match due to ineffective midfield. Make i stop shalayes. .lol
smartsmith,abeg tell Rohr not to start Onuachu next match o. .i know wetin i dey talk.
BTW busky002, please stop typing abeg, how will you be blaming the players?

make e no be say I dey complain but how does it make sense when you invited Aina and Ebuehi, two decent RBs only to play Akpo instead? What is wrong with Rohr sef?

wizzie001:
So apt and well defined submission.

If you declined leading at the frontline and others with well defined objective like you, then we shouldnt complain when half baked, self centred & clueless politicians steer the wheel to bankruptcy!!

My brother, it is not like I don't want to lead. But imagine a scenario where I proposed a maximum wage of 1M (earned by the president ) and no allowance , will my life not be in danger ? Considering how selfish some people are..this is just like blocking their source of national cake. Economy development is important but I can't ignore my well being too . However, i can work behind the scene giving ideas and innovation. The rugged but intelligent guys can take the front seat.

smartsmith0907:
thanks bro I understand bro
that is nothing exclusive about it jean even told one of the press himself 11am yesterday during the press conference
if not because this a very public thread I for don drop the line up.

Ok..I'm actually referring to the tactics and strategy part.
Ride on with the update bro...

smartsmith0907:
the video jean royer called the Mauritania coach and told him how defensively the sierra Leone can be so we will play balance play first half then if we can't score a goal then we throw out attack in the second half

eermm...bro, There are some information that shouldn't be made public... you grab?

Well, let's see..

1. Salary review of all sectors. Almost half of our budget are expended on allowance and salary, this shouldn't be so in a developing country like Nigeria.

2. Heavy investment in agriculture- Export of agro products, Industrial development e.t.c.

3. Merging and dissolving of some ministries. Can somebody tell us the function of ministry of disaster.

4. Merge house of reps, the Senate and house of assembly together. What is their function sef

5. Quarterly audit. - To check corruption

6. Signing some bills into law (You wanna know them? )


But, I'm telling you, if the office of the president is offered to me on a platter of gold, i will decline.

Somebody tell Seirra leone players to be careful before Benin boys reason their matter. . .lol
Heard one of their players was complaining about the hotel bed and pillow.

elyte89:
He can play as an AMF,RMF,LMF..,not as a striker

Ok

elyte89:
D only player I am looking forward to...maybe tijani also

A striker?

andrewbaba44:
I don’t know who is the better DM because I have never seen awaziem play there, if he plays there and does well then he will be the better one as semi didn’t do well there the last time

I am still okay with awaziem starting but am not sure rohr will drop semi on the bench

No go surprise if you akpoguma for line up ooo

ok

andrewbaba44:
Lol

His injury is yet to affect his goal ratio

Lesser games because of injuries but dude got the best stats anyday anytime

I know. .
Since 2014 when he won the golden boot, kane have won it twice,Auba,Salah,Mane and Vardy ,once . Placing him above these guys is just somehow.
I am referring to the ratings posted, i am not comparing them sha

andrewbaba44:
Ajayi is better

Abi no be 3 cb you use ?

It is your opinion and i will respect it. I think Awaziem is the better of the two. BTW,in my last paragraph,i included a formation change in case there is need for it. Awaziem will move to DM. The question now is who is the better DM among the two?

andrewbaba44:
Aguero has just played 2 games this season due to injury if that guy don play all the epl games he will be in nothing less than 8 goals

Last epl season that he was mostly injured he still scored 16 goals in 24 games which is a better stats than vardy and Kane

Check it and compare them

So how come you are saying his output recently when last season just ended not long ago

Oga,the fact still remain that other strikers are catching up with him. Aguero na my favorite City player but make we talk true,his injury is not helping matter. Placing only him above other strikers in EPL is debatable.

Danielnino00:
I'd modify this to 3-4-3..

I'd modify this to 3-4-3...

GK - Okoye

RCB- Ekong
LCB - Balogun
SW- Ajayi

CM - Etebo
CM - Aribo

RWB - Aina/Ebuehi
LWB- Zaidu

RWF- Chukwueze/Iheanacho
LWF- Iwobi
CF - Osimhen


With Etebo and Aribo in the middle doing the hard work, I don't think it's necessary to use Iwobi as AM again... He should move up front...

Ok. .another good idea.

barackodam:
Did football start in the last few seasons?

And again, I'm not dragging whether or not they deserve to be there with Agüero.

The way mostob talked, he insinuated that Aguero had no right to be listed as a goat, while Kane and vardy are elites. You understand me now?

Like, how can you call Messi goat, and say Benzema is elite.

Both of them no reach Aguero sir, and I reiterate, it's even an insult to compare Son to Aguero
The comparison of Kane is alright, even if Aguero would trump him, but he's earned it. See that Son own? Make una just die am

Oga, i already told you it depends on the criteria used. As at now,Aguero is behind Vardy,kane and Son.

jihday:
and rightly so

Well, it depends on the criteria used. As at now,vardy,kane and Son are on par with him if not ahead.

andrewbaba44:
Good line up

I will go with this your Line up apart from awaziem who I will drop for semi ajayi

Why if i may ask.

andrewbaba44:
Aguero that’s always injured but will end up getting 18 goals

Go and check his goal ratio

Weda Aguero no sabi play ball again or not him and vardy should not be on the same sentence

shebi you see where i wrote pedigree. Aguero is a good striker no doubt but his output recently is no longer convincing due to his frequent injury. Based on pedigree,Aguero na boss but for the last two seasons, Auba,Vardy and Kane are ahead.

Odunayaw:
I don't think we attack well with 352. It's like a conservative formation in the hands of conservative Papa Rohr

Lol. .it is true sha. That formation is clearly an attacking one but baba go tell them to park the bus. He is just too conservative.

2lola:
Today I will reveal someone real identity here.

Don't. You have to respect people's privacy pls

JayromWrites:
By Pedigree, Aguero is elite
but of the last few seasons, Kane, Auba deserves to be up there with him
Imagine Werner and Vardy in the same category, kolewerk

Gbam! So apt! Cc barackodam

Odunayaw:
Na Sierra Leone we de play o

so? I don't get you bro
