Italy did not teach them anything. The Spaniards outplayed Italy in every part of the game. Italy stayed parked in their half for much of the game because they could not stand the Spanish force.

By the way, Italy won with penalties. Spain played their best game in that match.

When you see me spark about Rhor and Pinnick, you think I am joking. Look at what Enrique did and built a solid young squad.

If you set up a team with speed, stamina and talent as the key criteria, it is hard to see yourself looking for experience players because old legs can not bring it to the team.

Football is leaving that old way of lethargic football. Now it is more of speed and brilliance. Yet our coach and NFF man wants to pull us back. To bring more old legs.

Going into AFCON I remember we played 0-0 with Cape Verde, drew Burkina Faso and Zambia so what are you talking about? The ivorians were favourite to win the tournament but lost to rookies.

I watched the final. It was a beautiful game of football but as far as I am concerned, the better side lost.

Either way, those young boys reached the Semi finals of the Euros and the finals of the Nation's League.

How much experience was did the Italian side that won France in 2006 WC have? France brought all their experienced players out of retirement and still lost, Nigeria won AFCON in 2013 with rookies against the experienced ivorian side, in 2015 a new crop of CIV won the AFCON, 2017 Cameroon won the AFCON with half of their squad playing for the first time and massive squad withdrawal. France won the world cup in 2018 against a more experienced Croatian side so where does this your argument fit in please?

Chief you have good reason to be sceptical about the SE chances next year year but using your experience and Ighalo argument doesn't add validity to the point you are trying to pass. If you had based your arguments solely on the tactical capabilities of Rohr and the rest of the coaching crew then I would have heard you.

I watched too much football to completely dismiss our team's chances next January. Who knows a combination of the right formation, form and dumb luck could just propel the team to victory. I will continue to be optimistic and hope for the best if we don't do well it's nothing new it happens and the heavens will not collapse. If after not qualifying for AFCON and WC we are still moving it's definitely not next year that will faze me.
