In 2017 he qualifed us to WC cup without stress, being the fact that he is jus getting to acquaint with his team, we met were beaten by World cup finalist with a decent scoreline and lost at die mins to a Messi inspired Argentine team.
In 2018 He led us through another Afcon qualifiers and qualified us without stress.
In 2019 his first Afcon he led us to bronze medal feat.
In 2020 No football activities.
In 2021 continued his brilliant and Masterclass qualification by putting us through to another Afcon without stress(so you all should sit down and watch him going past bronze medal stage)

NB: I don't Fancy hypertension qualification and winning Afcon then later failing qualify d following edition and more.
Kudos to big boss keshi and big boss amodu, but plss respect rohr he still on track....there is no justification for calling for his sack... he is still "footballically" getting right with us

I don’t know why Rodgers is not starting nacho ,this guy was your best striker last season

Now they went to buy parson Daka for huge sum only to sit at the bench

Patson Daka's case is understable. New player, first season in top flight, and Vardy's yet to slow down.

But Iheancho, I don't understand. Maddison and Ayoze Perez have been average at best this season, yet Rodgers wouldn't budge.

Even Marc Albrighton playing like a 47-year-old grandpa.

I understand some managers don't just trust some players but this is extreme.

People need to stop bring half-brained about Ndidi ball playing skills. Ball playing is still his weakest point. One match does not erase everything.

If both Lib vs CV games end in a draw, a win and a draw against CAR are enough.
joxxy01:
I think in another way if Nigeria can beat CAR home and abroad it will be 12points. Nigeria will qualify with 2 games to spare if both legs between Liberia and Cv ends in draw.

To start Iheanacho he has to change his whole formation, Iheanacho is not making things easy for himself by perfecting his skills as a lone striker or as a winger

What position did he play last season when he was coming off the bench and scoring crucial goals for the team??

What's stopping Rodgers from using that same formation?
Must he start the ineffectual Perez and Madison all the time?

Iheanacho started many games because Barnes was out, now Barnes is back Iheanacho doesn't fit into Leicester's favored 4-3-3 formation, he has to adapt to the team rather than the team adapting to him

Because Iheanacho definitely performed better than Barnes when he took his place last season..

I've said it before, Rodgers may be a good tactician,but his man management skills are poor...

Cup games will soon start and he will have no choice than to start Iheanacho..and when Nacho start scoring, he will have no choice than to start him in the league...

Osimhen might be an explosive forward and a generational talent, but he has some many attributes lacking in his game.

Poor first touch and poor movement are the standout.

Napoli signed a 1.85m striker, only to avoid crossing.

Osimhen has created their best chance from the only header in the game.

Feisty game from Osimhen. Insane work rate.

Needs to work on his:

FIRST TOUCH/BALL CONTROL.

Staying on his feet. Defenders like strikers who go down easily, while referees tend to stereotype them.

Movement. This is the most important. Napoli really bossed this game, but Osimhen made the mistake of camping in Juventus' penalty box.

Once in a while, good strikers should either drift to the wings or drop deep, then take one-two touches and return to the box. This causes either the defender to lose their man or get drawn out of position.

Also this allows his teammates to notice him and monitor his runs.
As little work rate as Onuachu offers, he drops deep quite regularly for this reason. Osimhen is too mobile to be camping.

Terrific game, nonetheless. Against Juventus. His confidence will return.

Barnes has been poor but its much more than Barnes, Leicester don't have enough defenders to field 3 defenders to play a 3-5-2 which Iheanacho can only function in that's why I said Iheanacho has to adapt because a lot of things have to happen right before he gets a start

Spot on observation. It is not every time Osimhen will have acres of space to run into where he can use his pace. He needs to be clever and use his extra mobility to deceive his marker and create extra space for himself. Shooting still needs work. His work rate is up there with the best.

Anguissa the Cameroonian midfielder really impressed me.

Did they tie nacho there wit rope

Dude has no knowledge of his potentials and he is comfortable been a fringle player

A player like nacho ought to ambitious for himself...he is a 20 goals per season striker if given run of games

This is beyond bad belle. Let's switch roles. If Barnes went on a 8-9 game goal scoring run towards the end of last season was excluded now I'm sure the English media will have a riot. In football it's always no brainer to start your forward who's in form. If Perez, Barnes and Maddison were even doing the business one would have no issues but they have also been ineffectual.

So Jesse lingard was a kid when Ronaldo first joined man united

Dude is too young for 29 ,I will even believe if he claims to be 22

So Ronaldo is just 7 years older than this kid we are seeing on this pics ?
