Balogun and Ogu to dropped by Rohr for younger and more talented players.

https://www.completesports.com/balogun-ogu-may-go-as-rohr-fortifies-super-eagles-after-afcon-2019/

Thank God

My wishes for the National Team coming true

darkelf:
Osey is too small statured and may not have the physicality for that position. I doubt he can play alone up front

At 1.82m? How tall is Ighalo?

Odunayaw:
not taking that away from him. I am just trying to understand the plurality

There is no GK out of the 3 that has saved more one on one than Akpeyi

he's shaky fine but not as bad as alot are painting him


and he is better than the 3 keepers we have.

based on stats, he is among tths first 5 GKs in the AFCON

go and check AFCON stats before disagreeing with me.

I don't do crowd bashing.

tbaba1234:
He ended on a high.. I wish him the best. Please help us find Akpeyi's own.

Apkeyi
Ogu
Balogun
Ezenwa

Please make una retire abeg.

Would have prefer Afelokhia to be called up but I think hhe's old already.

Alampasu and Okoye should be called up asap!

am trying to understand why you're giving me assignment sha & I also don't know how this explains the claimed saves Uzoho made.

That said, stats ,preference or whatnot. We shouldn't have to continue with Akpeyi or any of the other two. With Uzoho there is hope considering his age ( at worst him no fit pass 24). Can you boldly say there's hope for Akpeyi and Ezenwa?

krattoss:
Musa no go like follow retire too

Too young to retire, he should be made to strike. shouldn't be used as a wingers.

Most of his foreign club exploits has been as a striker

My post is not to tackle you, rather to lay more credence

I think so

andrew444:
You no need to tell them

Dem self know the truth and dem don admit that rohr is correct

They all earned my respect

But osimhen has the potential to be far better than ighalo soon

I have been consistently CONSISTENT in my opinion with regards to Osimhen prior and even now.

A good player with a lot of potential that can go far If he listens to good advice and is managed correctly.

First of all the only basis for call up to the SE should be Outstanding consistent top quality performances in your club and league. Osimhen had done nothing before he was invited from Wolfsburg youth team.

Meanwhile we had a player tearing up the Austrian league in the name of Kayode that was totally ignored.

Now fast forward he took my advice dropped to a lower league and REINVENTED himself. By being outstanding as one of the top ten goals scorerd in the Belguim league.

He now has a chance to prove himself in the SE he has been waiting l presume preparing for this one chance. Sometimes you only get one chance you must make very good use if it. It can either make or break you.

Prior to him getting his chance the reports coming out of camp were not good. He has a cult following here that's filled with emotive sentiment and based on preference not performance.

We all waited in excited anticipation only bro sorely disappointed.

Now it's become apparent that he is NOT READY YET or maybe NEVER only time will tell. Where the AFCON is concerned he simply doesn't have the attributes required currently.

It's been reported that Ighalo has retired if this is true it's very SAD NEWS he still very relevant for the SE because there is no ready replacement. CURRENTLY.

Ighalo hot his first call in 2015 he was proven tested and established over many seasons of professional football in different leagues across Europe.

Unfortunately the problem has arisen because we no longer have any Proven Tested and Established top strikers to call on.

Consequently, We are now looking at POTENTIAL STRIKERS which is what Osimhen is for now.

If you think that's HATE and BIAS I have no words for you.

Odunayaw:
At 1.82m? How tall is Ighalo?

I don't believe that height he was listed as ooo

I have watched clips of him play and I don't even think he is up to 5ft 8in

Thank you, my dear! Everyone here knows that I am arguably Daniel Akpeyi's biggest critic in this forum. However, I always criticize objectively not out of emotions or blame game. With that said, anybody who blames Akpeyi for the loss against Algeria is either being grossly unfair or totally clueless about soccer. We didn't lose that game because of the goalkeeper. Short and simple! As a matter of fact, Akpeyi actually saved our brushes on more than one occasion in that game.

at age 26 we are still looking for a place that fits this average player...
he should go sort himself out please...
we need better players and not putting players upfront based on sentiments.

he is not even tall self

please always try to make your comments brief and straight to the point.
it takes too many space....

and for the last paragraph....please go help us beg him to come out of retirement....
you guys believe that we will never get the best...pessimism at its peak.
I believe the next striker gonna be more lethal and deadly than him.
I wish him...well, he has paid his dues...

him leaving gonna pave way for the next hungry lad

Those shouting for Maduka should know that he plays for a lower league (not even in the division II).

he is not even tall self

He's known to be humble, he cant dictate where he wants to play
The coaches just prefer using him as a winger for tthe national sides unlike his clubsides.

And must you be tall to strike?

Jesus
Aguero
Ayews
uche
Martins
etc

Saved us more tthan twice in that game.

Also the best ball distributor among the 3
But he needs to bow out with Ezenwa

komekn:
Being young and energetic does not equate to physical prowess and dominance.

Every league is different and they are not always the same quality and they all have different attributes and styles.

For instance La Liga is very technical but not as Physical Fast and competitive as the EPL.

This implies that each of these league will have different preferences with player selection.

The Belguim league is not a physical league it's more technical based and isn't on the same quality in any way shape or form as the Bundesliga.

The Scottish league has a low rating in Europe around number 20 but the Belguim league is number 8. Nonetheless, the Scottish league is very physical and requires players to have a good degree of physicallity.

That's why Sadiq Umar completely flopped in Rangers but did above average in the Eredivisie just like the Belguim league it's not very physical. And Sadiq though tall is a paper weight.

Essentially physicality is not an essential player requirement to excel in the Belguim. Why do you think Lukaku was destroying the league at 16 ❓ If I'm right he was the top goal scorer at 16.

So your proposition assumption is wrong.

Please do not misrepresent my comments, you can make informed predictions based on a player current attributes about a player but nobody can determine the future.

My comments were specific , l reiterate with regards to the HERE and NOW Osimhen is very far off from Ighalo and is currently not the solution to Nigeria need for a striker CURRENTLY.

your last paragraph carries no weight.
when ighalo was 20 he was no where near oshimen at his age...

oshimen so far have been on a steady rise....Lukaku tore the league apart when he was 16 only God knows if your assertion is true that he became the league top scorer at that age....and same lukaku replete same performance in westbrom, Everton and man united in close similar fashion..

the Belgian league is a developmental league...and it is not out of place for a young player development.

notwithstanding I still see no points in the dust raised that oshimen not being physical enough will stop him from delivering the much needed expectations.
mahrez several years ago was acussed by Same Algerian fans to have bribed the then Serbian coach to get a call up in the Algeria team...and today same mahrez have come good... and many others who got their call ups while just coming up from the French academy

darkelf:
So, who is the solution to the No 9 conundrum NOW

That's the big WAHALA.

Gone are the days when we had quality players all over the place.

somehow:

Jesus
Aguero
Ayews

save for the Ghana mentioned musa is no where near any of those strikers....nahh.

those players are technical and skilful players.... please don't ever compare musa to any of them....

somehow:
Apkeyi
Ogu
Balogun
Ezenwa

Please make una retire abeg.

You want balogun to retire but you want omeruo and co to continue ,don't be suprised omeruo might be older than balogun in Real age

If balogun can be playing regularly then he should continue

In super eagles once a player is 30 they are 2 old Bt others big European teams they are many players of 30s there

komekn:
This is how people who are Superdelusuional begin to create non existent facts to buttress thier prejudice.

Exactly!

darkelf:

and so?

What does that have to do with being a decent goalie? The guy is 20 years old at most, and has many years ahead of him, we aren't expecting him to be Donnaruma and he isn't coming to be first choice.

As long as he plays, that is fine.

Carl Ikeme was playing in the championships when he became our goalie in his thirties, in his twenties he was in division 3. We need a shot stopper and the league rarely tells the whole story for a goalie.

There are third choice goalies in thr Premier League that haven't kicked a ball in that league.

Yet Musa leads them in world cup goals

How mmany skills Inzagi get during his time?

What Musa lacks in Tech, he is got in speed and finishing.

The same Musa almost finished Mascherano, Romero and Otemandi careers with his 2 goals.

I'm talking based on current performance.

If we don't have better legs, fine.

komekn:
I am not overly sold on Udokhai he isn't first choice and isn't consistently outstanding in the club or league.

Convince us, tell us about him❓ what's he got❓ l have only seen him a few times.

Well, he was the first choice last season before he lost his place through injury. This season he hardly played but I think he is a very good player.

He is also good at scoring goals.

However, he can as well play as LB.

komekn:
Eze is a good player that needs to be more consistent.

It's remarkable that him and Tega Abrahams were in the same local youth team as kids.

Well, I think we still need to give him the chance to prove himself in the GWG.

Aunty, Regionaliga isn't championship

There isn't any basis for comparison

I don't think he is good enough for the second team of the Super Eagles sef.

Ikeme was first choice in a team that was on the verge of gaining promotion to the Premier league.

This guy may not even be as good as Uzoho.

oh, alright bro

jubilantagida:
We need to know if truly those England based boys have the quality to improve our team, we can't just bring in every Tom, Dick and Harry into the fold only on the basis that he could be the next Dele Alli, if we can't do same for those here at home.

Are you saying Ovie, Onomah, Lookman and Eze are Tom, Dick and Harry?

darkelf:
I don't believe that height he was listed as ooo

I have watched clips of him play and I don't even think he is up to 5ft 8in

At worst it'd be around that range. Obagoal wasn't on the high side, they are of same height by my judgement
