We just saw the second most entertaining game of this WC thus far. The Europeans sure have it in them.

Now even South Korea can still qualify and Mexico can crash out!
Mexico have 6 points and South Korea have zero, so please how exactly can they qualify?
Uncle, we both know Korea ain't beating Germany. Let's be real here.
And goal difference counts before head to head.

My formation vs Argentina

There was a set up I had Etebor as wing back and some people came for my head. By the way, is it not Idowu does not belong to that team...weak player

Siasia has proven himself as a decent tactician. He took the u23 to the final of the football event. What has Rohr achieved. Rohr is just ridding on the back of a very talented pool of players and he is still fumbling.

this is the best time for us to best Argentina
there are reports that there are rifts among the team mates especially pavon and mascherano in camp and that a section of the Argentine squad is forming a coup against sampaoli
great advantage for us

Rather Balogun at the middle in the 3-man defense
raindodger13:


I say we switch Balogun with Ebuehi against the Argentines. In the 4-2 friendly, Balogun was having trouble keeping up with their pace which resulted in a goal but when we put in Ebuehi, Di Maria was ineffective.

We cannot afford to bench Iwobi in this one. He got their number. His combination with our forwards will be crucial. Familiar terrain. Our left wing backs like to cut in anyway. Etebo has the runs in him to give us something similar to what Moses offers at the right. It will be bombardment from all direction with this formation/personnel. I expect the Argies to come out smoking from start to finish. We should be up to the task. Any slack moment in this one could prove detrimental.

oga against argentina etebo will better utilized in the middles because of his energetic and robust style of play. why are we so obssesed with this "#10" thing? we need to chock the argies in the middle and hit them on the counter. iheanacho will be the link between the midfield and the attack as he did against iceland

I think Etebo will offer something better than Idowu there. Ebuehi a great back up at RWB.

Starting Etebo, Iwobi, Musa and Iheanacho would do well to me. I don't wanna see Ighalo till 70th minute.


Musa on left, with Etebo at his back, Nacho and Iwobi will be rotating the CF.

If only Rohr Trusts Simy as well.


Croatia would wana win that match cos if we win and they lose, it means we are facing Australia instead of France.

The argies think the best way to beat us is on a counter attack. You guys should read comments on their forum

They think if they loose, it won't be because we were better but because their coach (including messi) is useless

Yes, the Argentines are going to play hard considering are past history with them in the previous world cups, the way we humiliated them in our 4-2 decimation against them and the fact that this Messi's last chance to prove himself on this stage. We are really going to have to go guns blazing against them. Don't give away senseless penalty kicks, defend set pieces and handicap Messi by not allowing him to shoot with his left foot.
,
Also, despite our win against Iceland, I think our ball control, passing and creativity in the final third could be better. I hope Rohr pays attention to these things. We definitely have what it takes to win.

Siasia has proven himself at underage football not senior team, it seems some of you have forgotten our football was at rock bottom when this man took over, how many of you even gave us a chance of qualifying for the world cup? if anything I think our defence is more organized now he just need to work on our attack to be more devastating.

You asked how exactly they can qualify. The answer is by beating Germany. You cannot say it is impossible, at best you say not likely

But I tell you they(Korea) are still in the race.

Passing would have increased our chance to score. Even though he scored, Musa took the harder and less safe option.

Gerrit?
What you are saying is not reasonable one bit. You are using an event that has yielded positive results to compare an event that has no guarantee as it never happened. People no dey miss penalty? Don't players miss open nets. What sort of yarns is this? Nitori olorun?

This formation is the best for the Argentina match.
Etebo will offer more in that LWB role than Ebuehi and Idowu. And Iwobi playing that Am role means there won't be short of supply to musa and Iheanacho.
This formation is Deadly.

not only is he on goal drought, he ensures the whole team is on goal drought with him.

Just leave all these people and their dead analysis. If it is not that some people like misfortune, how will they think there is any wisdom in starting Ighalo?

thank you...I was expecting only iwobi to be introduced prior the end of that match....
if need be for the introduction of a striker...simmy should be introduced instead...I still believe lokosa would have even fare better in this tactics of rohr than ighalo...that dude against Congo was hungry....

Contrary to opinions on here, I dont think Mikel was impressive yesterday.
He was sluggish, made a lot of back passes, and as a matter of fact, Etebo had to drop deep into the midfield. He also failed to release our wingbacks with long passes on many occasion. Ogu would have done better than Mikel in the same role but we know he's untouchable.

That said, it's better Mikel was deployed as a DM than as a AM.

Also, save for Ighalo's indecisive moment on some occasion, he had more presence and took up better position on the pitch than Nacho. He just has to be quick with his decision. His finishing is another talk for another day.
Mikel is untouchable? Mikel is sluggish?Mikel made a lot of back passes?and Ogu would have done better?

Sir,pls can you explain better cos with your opinion it seemed i watched different match.

even Moses Simon...would have done better....
to be honest....I initially had doubts about lokosa but after the few minutes he played against Congo . I was really impressed....I believe he is a raw talent that needs to be polished... reason why I will want him go to the French league after his time in the npfl...

Sir,Simy Nwankwo is not a high profile striker in Italy,not only in Italy even when he was in Portugal,his invitation was due to his performance in the latter end of the league.

7 goals striker in a season is not a high profile striker though i wish to see more of him cos of that moment against Congo.
