Are you serious?

Aina rather! LMAO!

Ndidi will play in the next friendly Match.

Even at his Club, Shehu played as a DM, not as a RB. We all understand the Reason for his Emergence as a RB for the Eagles, but since we've got Tyrone and Aina who are more than capable to play the Position, why Rohr still insists on playing Shehu as a RB?!

Joel or Onazi should have been dropped for Shehu to move into the Midfield, and if Rohr wanna rewards the Players that qualified us for the Mundial, then he should have dropped Joel for Aina at least.

Well...... Aina is still a young Lad. He's definitely gonna understand the Decision of Rohr, and I expect him to deal with it professionally.

More so, I think he and Agu gonna still travel with the Squad to Russia. They ain't gonna be left at Home. They are still gonna be part of the Team, train with Team - be and part of the Squad unofficially.

Ain't we expecting too much from VicMo, cos he ain't in the League of Neymar..... a real Game Changer.

Neymar don enter! This Half gonna be more interesting!

The Croats are fantastic in this Half. They are very disciplined with Ball Possession, resolute in defence, compact in Midfield and solid in Attack.

Eagles shouldn't be setup tactically to control the Game from the Midfield against them, rather on the Flanks. It will be difficult to beat them with 4 at the back Formation to be candid.

We gonna need to play 3 - 4 - 2 -1 with Simmy spear-heading the Attack - behind him should be Iwobi and Moses with Mikel partnering Ndidi as DMs. Ndidi will be doing the Tackles and Interceptions, while Mikel will be distributing the Ball.

The Pace of Tyrone and Idowu gonna be needed mostly in the Match. They will be making decisive Crosses into the Opposition Box for Simmy to make use of it positively.

Finally Iwobi's creativity and Moses dribbling Skills gonna be needed to unsettle the Midfield and Defence of the Croatia National Team.

though the boos were more of bants to me but we shouldn't be hounding that guy for choosing England

English Fans have every Right to boo Iwobi, Moses and even Aina, but they were so mature unlike our Fans.

Super Eagles should be reset after the World Cup. In the GK Department, Dele Ajiboye should replace Daniel Akpeyi in the Team immediately after the Mundial.

I hope to see Tyrone and Musa Muhammad jostling for the RB, while Shehu is moved to his preferred Position - DM. Echiejile should be retired to pave way for Aina and Idowu vying for the LB Position.

In the Midfield, Onazi and Ogu should be replaced with Nwakali Brothers, Ajagun should be invited also to fight for a Spot in the Team. Finally Iwobi should be classed and played as an AM for the Team.

Upfront....... Kayode should be brought back to replace Ighalo in the Squad. Simmy should be retained.

Are you wondering why Nigerian Fans at Wembley were booing Dele Alli?!

GK Trainer should start drilling Uzoho 24hrs per Day. He's gonna be the Team's No. 1, and I want him to be fully ready for the Mundial.

Mujtahida:
Let's not be carried away with Ogu as a LB. He should play as LMF. there we can maximise his strength and minimise the damage teams will likely inflict if he plays as a LB.

Sorry I got this Mention late but worth replying. Ogu didn't play as a LB, rather as a LCB in a 3-Man Defence. It's Idowu that played the LB on the first Half and later played as LWB in the 2nd Half.

EEGA:
Those two are old and can't play against fast mid-fielders.

...... at what Age pls?

Onazi be like; sho mo Age mi ni?! Lol.

What happened to omeruo performance today?..

Can't we see Balogun omeruo and Ogu..

Balogun omeruo partnership still work n gel...

I'm not takibg anything away from ekong he's a workaholic

The same Omeruo that head-butted Etebo?! Well,he seemed improved but I ain't sold on him yet. I will rather go with Ekong than him at the moment.

soetanoreoluwa:
Which wing did England penetrate during first half... It was shehu s wing... Not Brian and also there are more defending in first half... It is more of pressure...

Mikel was caged and lost..

Vic Moses was ordinary with not single attempt... He refused to track back and cover for Idowu...

I dunno why you said he was poor really...
If you said Idowu was poor what about first half performance of Ekong?

Bro.... perhaps you need to re-watch the Match. How many successful Crosses did he make?! How many tackles did he won, how many play was he able to break or initiate?! Do I need to tell you he was caught out of Position more than once?!

As per the Wing more penetrated by the English Team in the first Half, my Brother it's the Midfield. They murdered, no massacred our Midfield in the first Half.

Ekong, Balogun and Ogu should be tried out as the 3 CBs in a 3 - 5 - 2 Formation. I really enjoy the Calmness of Ogu on the Ball. He's a class I must admit. Balogun gets the Height to deal with aerial Threats, also he can be a Leader, coordinating the Defence.

I really can't blame him for his Performance Today, coz I guess he suffered a Concussion after the Heads Collision with Joel. I hope to see him once again with aforementioned Players.

I read so many funny Analyzes this Evening on this Thread. What has Ebuehi performance Today got to do with Aina pls?! Can someone explain it to me?! Are they vying for the same Position in the Team?!

Brian Idowu was outstandingly poor Today. He made no successful Cross, offensively he was blunt, Defensively he was a Suspect..... yet some Dudes are calling on Aina to be dropped?! Lol!

If at all one Fullback must be dropped, then it should be Echiejile, coz he's gonna be ineffective in the Team. It's apparent the right Formation for the Team is 3 - 5 - 2 and Echiejile ain't a kinda Fullback that can also play as a Wing-back.

But if it's let for me to drop Players right now, both Onazi and Joel have made it a very easy Decision to take. I hope Rohr plays 3 - 5 - 2 from first Half against Czech with Ebuehi as RWB and Aina as LWB.

If Rohr drops Ogu after his wonderful Performance Today, then something else has come into play. The Two Players have made their Selves Available for the imminent Omission from the final List...... and they are; Onazi and Joel.

They'll still call you a Ghanaian after seeing this

I ain't a Newbie here Bro, they know I'm a Nigerian.

The first Half was completely off it. It's a Half to forget as quickly as possible cos its an Eyesore from the blast of the Whistle to the last Minute.

Rohr did a good Job in the 2nd Half of the Match. He twisted the Formation to 3 - 5 - 2 - played Omeruo as RCB; Ekong as CB; Ogu as LCB and it worked well defensively.

On the Flanks, Ebuehi proved himself once again that he's the best we've got as either a RB or a RWB. Idowu wasn't fantastic, hence I wouldn't mind seeing Aina play as a LWB or LB against Czech Republic.

In the Middle, I commended Rohr for doing the Needful and it was spot on. Etebo was very influential as a DM, Iwobi was outstanding until the last 15mins of the Match same as Mikel.

Upfront..... Moses is kinda too selfish for liking. I wish to see a better Moses in the next Game. Ighalo was average to be candid, thus I wish Rohr plays Iheanacho in the next Match.

Lest I forget, Uzoho has earned it, he should be the No. 1 Keeper for the Eagles at the Mundial.

#SoarEagles.
#NaijaAllTheWay.

Ebuehi na confam Aja-1!

Simmy/Iheanacho should come in for Ighalo now pls. I don see enough of him.

Nice Sub!

Mujtahida:
We don talk tire. Even yesterday this was a matter we greatly contended here. We talk titititit. I told you to take solace in the fact that the coach is aware of this fact.

I hope Rohr and some Fans here Eyes don clear now.

Odunayaw:
Simy should enter right now!
Meanwhile! Any Ghanian still bleating!?

Taaah..... Iheanacho not Simmy pls.

Oh my goodness! Ebuehi is baling jhoor! No more Shehu as either RB or RWB.

KK555:
Get Ighalo out of there and put Simy Nwankwo there Rohrrrrrr.

Nah...... Iheanacho, he's more clinical than Simmy.

Guess Folks are seeing the Wonders of 3 - 5 - 2 Formation?! Play to the Team's Strength we say, but our Heads almost end up the Spikes.

Mujtahida!!!!!!!

Iwobi plays in the Middle, created a great Chance and eventually finished it.

Nihilstjnr:
To me where were struggling is on the flank.

Moses and Iwobi are getting sucked in to pressure linhad and Ali, leaving ungodly space for Trippier and Young.

If our fullbacks were good enough to overlap then we could put pressure on England wingbacks by double teaming them with our wingers and fullbacks.

As it stands, the fullbacks are staying put on defence, their wingers are tucking in too narrow, and so England have turned their wings to third mainland bridge at 2am

We don tell our People here many Times that Iwobi ain't a Winger, but taaah!...... he played on the Wing at Arsenal and he's the best we get in the Team.

KevinDein:
I might be exaggerating, but I don't think the team that played Athletico Madrid would be any worse than this lot. Just chip in Iwobi, Balogun and Uzoho into that team and we might at least not embarrass ourselves over there

You shall live long, live a healthy and wealthy life. We lost the Midfield completely, and the Eagle's Wings are being clipped.

Leyqute:
Make dis coach komot Onazi and put an attacker FFS. It's clear using double DMs has been a disaster.

Bring Mikel back to CM and let him dictate the game. The DM should only mark and pass the ball to the nearest attacker.

And Moses will thrive on RW instead of the LW he's been battling with

Bro..... they don't wanna hear that on this Thread o, cos Mikel is regarded as the most creative Midfielder in the Team.

The Trio of Onazi, Mikel and Iwobi would have fared better that Poo we get served in the first Half.
