I think rohr will have to adress the vicmo selfish play though lots of folks still argue whether vicmo is selfish or not. But if you hear the English commentary of the highlights, you will hear the commentators commending the one touch play of the Eagles leading to the goals. Just hope vicmo saw the game

EEGA:
Iwobi,Ogu and Ndidi, their face be like "we never knew you(Ebuehi) were this good".

Mujtahida:

I couldn't resist sharing this on WhatsApp. I love it

safarigirl:
England must be feeling like they got the wrong Nigerians right now

forgiveness:


Go and watch the match again. Akpeyi saved. It may look simple to you but it doesn't to me.

daveP:
If Rohr uses the super sub tactic by making VicMo come from the bench, I imagine the way the second half would be sweet. But some will still clamor he should be a starter.

neighy:
to be sincere excluding the mistake he was pretty composed yesterday.. I wonder how ezenwa (temporarily) took his spot that guy should be in nollywood serving his country... I wonder why akpeyi too dey fear

tbaba1234:


We need to play a very organized European team, those pot 3 teams are tricky. Denmark, Sweden and Iceland..

lexyman:
what a victory ! i greet you all . has anyone been taken note of the new passing style in the super eagles ... diagonal style that you can't predict who will have the ball next ? ...this has been our strenght . and i noticed its ochestrated in such a way to break any defence ... i noticed the same style of passing against ZAMBIA ... that lead to the winning goal ... same style was used against Argentina and it produced 2 goals . i so far i am satisfied ...and i am sure it will get better .

Mujtahida:

Akpeyi should be pardoned and given another chance in a friendly to redeem himself. We are all human.

Goke7:

Pls no Denmark o to avoid stories that can touch the heart , even sweden sef, I fit manage iceland sha

Mujtahida:

Rohr spoke about his preference for one touch- two touch - go football after the Zambian match.

forgiveness:


Yeah! You're right. Maybe after the world cup.

I think Aina should be tested in the RB role before we final pass our verdict on him.

tbaba1234:


There are no easy groups.. We must be ready to fight against anyone..

Goke7:


those Scandinavian teams na no go area o, even iceland sef, don't forget what they did at the last euro, me think Nigeria will even fare better against the bigger teams apart from Germany, we are often psyched up optimally against bigger sides.

MetalJigsaw:
You're right!. Sometimes Vic Mo is better off starting from the bench in some tactical formations

Napoleon55:
i think in order to accommodate both V.Moses and Ebuehi and utilized them effectively,i suggest Iwobi should be played in the midfield,and Ogu would b dropped, the 3 main midfielders will b made up of NDIDI,MIKEL and IWOBI,while IHEANACHO or whoever will play up front with V.MOSES,IDOWU and EBUEHI will fill the LWB and RWB respectively.
this is just my opinion .
it's imperative that we master as many as 4 major formations,because u never know the kind of opposition we will b facing at d WC.

Goke7:


Honestly a iheancho/iwobi combination is a delight to watch any day, just shows how deep our squad is even though at times we feel or look short of talents going forward. if vicmo will not reduce his selfish play, he can be our super sub but you know Nigerians go shout. Iheanacho may be the one to be sacrificed for vicmo and be the super sub instead. There is also an Ighalo and simon lurking around too, mhen it's interesting

tbaba1234:


Before the goal, the only 'save' was a deflected ball with no pace that was not even on target. We were not playing well but neither was Argentina.

MetalJigsaw:
Morning guys. I'm sure the Eagles victory over Argentina is still fresh in our minds and will be very good for the confidence of the team.

Can someone please give me a breakdown of how the WC teams will be positioned in the Pots A, B and so on. I need to know where all the teams stand in each pot. ,Thanks

Wow, a good insight into our goal keeping history.

My brother to tell you the truth I was one of those Peter Rufai die hard fans.

I never liked Agbonavbare and Ngodigha after their exploits at the Seoul 1988 Olympics. They didn't inspire confidence.

Alloy Agu was a good goalie IMO but we felt Peter Rufai was better and so we clamoured for his return for the 1994 AFCON. Alloy Agu didn't really have a good outing at Senegal 92 AFCON.

Westerhoff was right about Nigerian fans' knowledge of football then. We were closer to the national and local scene than the European scene. So we knew almost every Nigerian league and national team player and what they were capable of.

Good knowledge Nigerian football bro. Kudos to you.

daveP:
Lol Perhaps they shipped in the wrong cargo. How you doing? You've finally gotten your Ebuehi Moment!!

daveP:
yeah. As for Pot Analysis, I expect to get Croatia and maybe Portugal then Others.. .


But if we get Germany. .....all the same, let's start January playing a friendly with a top European team.

Humility017:

to be honest with you....if we really wanna be sincere with ourselves...
with this new rohr new tactics...aina will play better than elderson...
one thing I see about aina is his smooth passes and call control that elderson lack...

let's be sincere aina is better than elderson even in that LB role...
