U talk truth na. Only say U no believe say Baxter would have done better with these array of talents.

The question I keep on asking my clueless Barcelona coach velverde why starting sergi Roberto at right back and benching semedo ? Why always benching world class king Arturo Vidal?

See bros ezenwa matter tire me abeg I dey confused,that guy that cannot start for enyimba starting for the eagles ? Me I tire abeg

Yes success should have start ahead of nacho no doubt

edi287:

I didn't watch the game but Baxter ain't it. I've known dude since he was their coach back in 05-06. He's not doing anything his predecessor Shakes Mashaba didn't do.

Joebie:
And what will the new players be doing? Sitting on the bench? Coming in late? Failing to hold possession with neat interchange of passes? What will Rohr do differently with new players?

Joebie:
U talk truth na. Only say U no believe say Baxter would have done better with these array of talents.

TheGoodJoe:


You miss the key point. We deserve better football with the quality of our talents. Baxter with his tactics will have our players playing with more fluidity and intent.

Saying Baxter did not do well against other teams does not change the point that he will do better with more quality players.

The South Africans were the better side today when it comes to play. However, we had better quality players.

Finito.

I think there is something ezenwa know about rohr that no Nigerian knows...
or better still ezenwa is likely sharing his match bonus with Alloy Agu....

something is fishy somewhere....

then it was Keshi and agbim

Humility017:

any fair and transparent coach....will do better with this array of talents.....

the bane I indigenous coaches is corruption and this player agents-coaching sorting things....besides that our Indigenous coaches like siasia will even do better.

why can't our coaches and other professionals have integrity....?
tired of seeing white carpenters and tailors masquerading as expatriates in Nigeria

AIG07:
A team that has been together for 3years yet still struggle to string passes together.

No wonder a news media used the word 'Limp' to describe our team at the World Cup.

We were out played by the SAs. How does that sound to the ear sef? We need to be thinking big and set examples for other African countries to follow.

A loss against Eagles would av cost Baxter his job, Baxter had a meeting with Rohr last month in London, Rohr came up with a suspicious list of players to prosecute the match, he chose a questionable line up and he was all Smiles when calls were going against his team. Yet, some ppl wanna tell me, nothing happened behind closed doors? If only this nonsense was done by a local coach

As much as I hate rohr conservative attitude, I must say he is a decent tactician always knows how to grind out results with awful performance.

The way we are hyping our players is so disappointing, they are still average players in their respective clubs, all of them. Lets stop saying bunch of talents. No player there is a super star just an average bunch.

Joebie:
That’s it!!! Why are we lowering the bar?

What if he wins the AFCON,will you maintain your stand?

AIG07:
you can say that all over again!

I don't know why our people are been conservative with the truth.

Well, me o. I'm not impressed one bit about this man called Rohr and his results. The truth of the matter is that we are not progressing as a team. One needs to separate RESULTS from PROGRESS.

I watched Holland play yesterday and I marveled. They are rebuilding after they missed out in this year's world cup. Their new team is less than 2years (post Robben Era) but it is more obvious that they are on the rise. Sense of purpose in their play, clear cut pattern of football, the boys are getting better with each match. They defeated the World Champions yesterday with a team with average players just like ours(cos Aside Van dyke others are just average too). They qualified from a group that has Germany and France.

But ask these Rohr's defenders that aside qualification for the World Cup and AFCON what else can we say about his team.
No improvement in pattern of playe. No winning mentality in the boys. Na to de experiment up and down.

A lowly SA are even calling us their rivals. What an insult! We went out against them today seeking for a draw. It's like Wales calling Germany their football rival.

Something needs to be done asap. Else we will just waste this pool of talent at our disposal. It's so sad.

daveP:
lol exactly my angle. no visible upgrade from the usual usual and common common that we see always.


Once saw the build up of the Spanish team to one of their goals. my eyes were darting left right in seconds cos of the fluidity of the passes. France also do it as well.

But the chemistry.... for SE is just stale.... See build up to Ramsey goal Vs fulham... I dunno why stringing passes is still an issue since. But the 94 and 96 set were very fluid with passes? what happened to SE after 2008?

charlesemeka85:
he should first try and coach his village team first before accusing rohr for being tactically inept. nonsense!

We just qualified for the AFCON tournament for the first time in 5 years and you say that ain't progress? I laugh in Swahili. Besides,how can you separate Results from Progress when it's the Results that determine the Progress. Dude,take a seat please.

andrew444:


He is not a bench warmer for stoke

Nwanne please take it easy ,I don't know you to be like this ,even if you no like rohr no mean say make you call etebo bench warmer ,bro please try to get your fact right and remove anger

Someone has played 12 championship game for stoke and started 8 ,how is that a bench warmer ?

It that how you judge your football ?

Abeg no allow me follow you quarrel for this thread again o

Wetin you dey drink make bar man give you make you cool temper

andrew444:


Percy tau is good ,Brighton had to get him from the South Africa league ,work permit made them send him out on loan

Percy tau is the only South Africa player that will make eagles bench

Joebie:
A whole Nigeria celebrating AFCON qualification? Think about this deeply. Na really progress o

ChrisKels:


Their best player can only make our bench yet u defending Rohr for getting only a point from a possible 6 against them while they got 4? Not just that he got a point, he also played poorly

Joebie:
Nigeria missing out on previous AFCON is woeful. Our return to the continent is a return to normalcy. I don’t see that as progress. We are Nigeria, not Sudan etc. There is absolutely nothing to celebrate here.

COOL10:
.

Unfortunately that's where we've found ourselves,but like it or not,it's a progress. It shows we're doing something right no matter how minute or glaring it may be. U don't wanna imagine the kind of heartbreaks I had watching the past two AFCONS without my darling Super Eagles in any of them.

tbaba1234:


A return to normalcy is worth celebrating.
