For onazi and Joel obi to be on that final list,rohr needs to answer a lot of questions
Because they have a bad game means that will always happen? Do you know what those you have in mind will do? Even top players like Messi and Ronaldo have their bad day, does that mean they will be dropped?

These are the type of people that always want to bring Nigeria backward, why must his consult you guys? His work is to assemble good footballers for us and you want to interfere in his work, nonsense committee.

Based:
Attacks: Ighalo, Moses, Musa. Middle: Mikel, Iwobi, Nwankali. Defence: Truce, Echejile, Aina, Balogun and that 19 yr old lad, forgotten his name. Musa and Moses can be on the flanks.

The only very big problem that Super Eagles have now is that they can not defend set pieces,and that is not good at all
Re: Garba Lawal Tackles Rohr Over World Cup List by acaolly1(m): 4:57pm On Jun 05, 2018
Its a shame that Garba Lawal is talking this shit. This NFF is infectious In fact Nigeria as a whole is infectious, why do u give a man a responsibility and you still want to control it? Dont start this your usual rubbish and disturb the progress of the team please. Which Agu is he talking about? that guy playing rubbish is what Garba Lawal call utility player? I SMH for u.

According to a report by The Guardian, a member of Nigeria Football Federation (NFF) Technical Committee, former Super Eagles midfielder, Garba Lawal, says coach Genrot Rohr did not consult them before announcing the squad for the World Cup in Russia.

Coach Gernot Rohr on Sunday made public a 23-man squad that will prosecute the Mundial, which begin on June 14.

Speaking with The Guardian yesterday, Lawal said none of the committee members was aware of the final list before it was disclosed to the public.

“I got to know about the list on the social media like every other Nigerian. And I was surprised that the technical committee was not told about the list before it was made public.

“It seems we don’t know what we are doing. Rohr is the one that can answer Nigerians why members like Fanny Amun, Victor Ikpeba, Mutiu Adepoju were not consulted.

“At this moment, whether we say yes to Rohr’s list or not, there is nothing we can do again since the final squad has be named,” he said.

The former defensive midfielder while reacting to the complaints on the inclusion of Ogenyi Onazi, said Rohr should be the one to answer the question.

“I am particularly sad that a player like Uche Agbo, who played week in, week out for his club, Standard Liege of Belgium was not given a chance to prove his worth.

“This guy is a utility player, who as a defensive midfielder, can also operate as a defender in the middle and at both wings. Yet such talent was dropped without a look in. I still believe there are qualities in the team that can make us proud in Russia,” he stated.

What's even more worrying for me in all of this is the fact that Garba Lawal, (let's be honest not one of the smartest ex- SE players) is now part of the NFF when brilliant players like Segun Odegbami, Oliseh and even the late Stephen Keshi didn't get a chance to impact the beautiful game via the NFF.
Shows you how nepotism has eaten us rotten.

Garba Lawal should take a running start and jump off a cliff, would he have dared questioned his coaches selection in Roda JC or whatever mediocre teams he played for.
Re: Garba Lawal Tackles Rohr Over World Cup List by seankay(m): 5:02pm On Jun 05, 2018
In fairness to Joel Obi, he would have been one of the best midfielders in Africa if not for injuries that affected his career. He had great games during his first stint with the eagles when he was about 19 years old. I know he has the potential, he just needs time and the right motivation. I believe that's what Rohr sees in him. He might come good at the world cup. As for Onazi, he is also a good player but old age and not playing for a good club is the factor. He was superb in 2013 when we won the AFCON; he was playing for Lazio then. I think Nwakali and Aina should have been taken to the World cup because it would help then gain more experience and attract top clubs to nurture their talents. These guys are our future players.
