Ndidi played 60minutes for Leicester yesterday, Iheanacho also started

both of them including
moses simon
taiwo awoniyi
muazum (in cd nacional in Portugal)

were part of our 2015 under 20 team
this shows our youth and grassroots football is working

jubilantagida:
They are playing to his strengths. He's more comfortable with them than he has ever been with us.

However, I know this may sound unpopular.
But, I think we have an attack problem, it wouldn't be out of place to have Ighalo and Victor Moses back with the team of they are available.

I think we should explore other option like dessers, Sadiq Umar, Moffi, Taiwo Awoniyi e.t.c. or even more foreign borns like lucas Nmecheta instead.
We have upcoming attacking talent we need to give a chance

BascoVanVeli:
U know what let's say I totally agree. Now explain the goals at club level? Explain him scoring more goals than any Nigerian in Europe? Explain ooo

The problem with him is actually that he does not fit into our pattern.
He is a good goal scorer but his all round play is very poor for a forward.
He seems to lack agression, mobility, dribling skills etc and cannot play as a lone striker.
It's a question of pattern and style of play.
The problem is there are other players that can easily fit into our pattern.
From emmanuel dessers and even to Sadiq Umar.
Sadiq Umar's all round play is spectacular. He is very skillfull, mobile and creative.
Onuachu can only play in one limited pattern that is why he struggles in Nigeria
His footballing skills are too limited

paul mukairu with an assist for anderletch.
this boy us impressive

DrKlever:
Bench ke. They are all in starting eleven oga.

He is right. Ejuke is on the bench for cska moscow while ndidi and iheanacho starts for leicester.
I just checked it online

we have play makers but we dont appreciate them
there is obinna nwobodo of Goztepe in Turkey
muazum of cd nacoonal
atiemwen in dinamo zaghreb
rabiu ibrahim is still active

BUT WE DEDPISE THEM BECAUSE THEY ARE NOTI IN A TOP 10 LEAGUE
WE HAVE TO LEARN TO APPRECIATE WHAT WE HAVE

HOW NIGERIAN LEAGUE CAN IMPROVE

The Nff and government should make it a law that no
Nigerian footballer should leave Nigeria before the age of 28.
Most of our best footballers go through football academies and leave without even playing in the nigerian league
The few good ones in our league leave after a few years or even months.

Imagine if Victor Osimhen, Samuel Chukwueze, Obinna Nwobodo, Keneth Omeruo, Peter Etebo etc were in Enyimba
They would win many international trophies in African football.
This law should be in place for 15 years.
Also our local clubs should patronize football academies for players.
If there is a law players cant leave before 28, football academies will be forced to sell there players to Nigerian clubs
and not European agents to make money

This measure should be put in place until our league can stand on its on.

Olanrewaju Kayode (Sivaspor) vs Obinna Nwobodo (Goztepe)
playing right now in the Turkish league.
The two of them are in the starting 11

Good for you

maidaboi:
Plateau united lost at home while Enyimba won away in CAF champion league

Our home based players need to do well in these continental competitions
in order to make it to the national team and even to Europe.
From caf competitions to chan, wafu and whatever.
This is beyond Rohr. Rohr will leave in 2 years time.
They just need to do well to stand any chance now and in the future

Rohr is not getting it right in his player invitation.It is not compulsory to invite Onuachu.

I remember Westerhoff and I can say he will never invite Onuachu....Mike Obiku was doing well for Feyenord but Westerhoff believed in Samson Siasia... Richard Owubokiri was the highest goal scorer in the whole Europe but Yekini was there doing the needful...Chris Ohenhen was damn good in La Liga but Amokachie was doing well.... Finidi George was home based doing it at the right side and Westerhoff wasn't interested in Tijani Babangida who was Europe based....Amuneke with Zamalek benching Ikpeba the prince of Monaco.

I know Rohr would have failed with US 94 Nigeria team based on his philosophy,playing in higher league determine your invitation but sometimes it doesn't work in national team football.

Honestly with Iheanacho do we need Onuachu as back up to Osimehn?NO... really surprised seeing Iheanacho dropped for Onuachu (Afcon 2019)

Better league or not Kayode and Simy are better strikers than Onuachu.

What i just want is a good and succesfull team. Rohr should just decide on his style and
stick to it.
A players effectiveness depends on the coach.
For example Maurinho and Guardiola will use different types of players because of their
different perspectives of football but they will still have good teams at the end of the day
Rohr should call players that fit into his tactics and football philosophy and produce a winning team.#
For example, Maurinho beleived in Drogba even though there were better strikers like shevchenko, crespo etc around.
Drogba fitted into his lone striker hard working striker style of play.
It is just about how your players vibe with you and fit into your style of play and get you results

fabyom:
Oga Icon4s. I do understand your point but I do think Kayode and Olayinka style of play is more suited to African opposition than players like Ejuke, Onachu etc. They are both tall and fast. Rohr is just a pensioner not a coach at all. I would not blame Pinnick at all cos he never wanted to renew Rohr's contract however it was people like me that put so much pressure on him to offer Rohr a new contract. Now we are regretting it.

Rohr may not prefer them because they play in so called inferior leagues.
He does not know when and where to use his players or understand how their style
of play fits in to the opposition.
This is why they are trying to get Salisu Yusuf back as his assistant
The argument of playing in a better league is too simplistic.
I have often thought that Olayinka is underrated.
Well, with his new assistants, Rohr may change

mostob:
They want to beef up backroom staff? The last time they were supposed to employ a good assistant to complement Rohr,na Yobo dem dash the spot. Nonsense and NFF

The inclusion of match readers is good.
However according to scorenigeria thet want him to start giving home based players a chance.
They are forcing him to comply with them.
Actually they want to give him assistants who will make him to do their will.
For example someone in nff wants him to use junior Ajayi and some hime based players and they want him to reduce the love for foreign borns
They will make him to do their will without sacking him.
That is clever

Subzero047:
Emmanuel Dennis in the beat

I actually think Peter Olayinka of Slavia Prague is a better player.
Emmanuel dennis is inconsistent, his decision making is not good and he dribbles to the gallery and he can play badly in 5 games and then be fantastic in 2. In addition he has disciplinary issues and his stats are not immpressivr.

Peter Olayinka's decision making and stats are better and he is a hardworker. Rohr should drop him for olayinka. Dennis is overrated

andrewbaba44:
Lol

See I have nothing against Maduka Okoye

But handing him the number 1 GK without allowing others to fight doesn’t make sense

You are right. It was a political decision. I mean i doubt he is better than francis Uzoho and Mathew Yakubu.
Rohr just likes him thats all. It is partiality

Excellent performance from him.

He made the mistake of going to the hungarian league. Im glad he's out of there.
If he does well tgen 1 or 2 years from now big teams will look for him.

AIG07:
Ambitious.

The only true club in Nigeria.

This club will revolutionize Nigerian football.
They have made Eguavon head of their academy.
Things like this will make our football grow not the over reliance on foreign born players.
There are many messi and higuans in nigeria waiting to be discovered
