The bolded is the lie you tell yourself everyday to find a means to justify Rohr's unnecessarily continuous stay with the team..
We don't overrate our squad.. We can boost of a starting eleven of players playing in Europe top 10 leagues..a lot of the are starters.. A lot of them put in decent shifts for their clubs every week..Not many countries in Africa can boost of that..Heck, our squad is even more valuable than some of those teams ahead of us in the FIFA ranking... How good was our squad when Keshi used it to win the world cup and reached the round of 16 of the world cup?
How good was the Egyptian squad that won 3 straight AFCON??
If Rohr is so good, how come he didn't achieve anything tangible before getting the super eagles job?
Both and our squad is overrated, Rohr is worst than our squad tho.

Maduka okoye is the best in his position ? Be deceiving your self ,if na uzoho or akpeyi chop 4 goals against seria Leone una go insult them tire

Uzoho fought with ezenwa who did well during some qualifiers ,forgot so soon ?

Osimhen waited for Ighalo to retire before he took that position or you forgot so soon that he was benched at the afcon by Ighalo despite his good form at Belgium ?

Maduka doesn’t look like he is better than even akpeyi self and you are telling me he is better then all ,I laugh in Chinese ,I have no problem with him starting but saying he fought for that GK shirt is the biggest lie in 2020

You want ndidi to fight with who if I may ask ? One of the best DM in the epl to fight with average players for his shirt abi ,Maduka has never played first team football before taking the eagles shirt grin

Go tell another person this one and not me
He didn't, he was given the number 1

Fact is, he was a secunda player, he debuting for the First team, is due to the first team keeper role, being stratched,

hence he going out on loan, after a new keeper arrive[/quote]but he still played "2 games" at (La liga) Arguably the Best league in the World (At that time) prior to Selection and his rivals Akpeyi, ezenwa had history of Shaky performance. Go and rewatch Nigeria vs Argentina (4.2) Uzoho debut for us and see that his selection was justifiable. Akpeyi and ezenwa has theirself to blame

i used to think that before but not anymore. We have a pool of Talented Guys enough to win ANC as long as a proven Winner/Tactician is on that bench. Remember, this is a team that still has Ejaria, Lookman, ehizubue and possibly eze yet to Feature. In addition to it, experienced proven players like Ighalo and Victor Moses are still playing active football and can put in a shift assuming they're convinced to come out of retirement
I know, but go and look at Algeria and Senegal squad too. Tunisia as well. Leave those that have not come yet, those teams are also good too, apart from that 4-4 game and the lack luster Algeria game, we have played well. That we have some decent players does not mean that we have turned to Portugal or France.

Bro, pound for Pound, Algeria and Tunisia dosen't have a better pool of talented 11 than Us.
Most talented 11 pound for pound on paper in Africa

1) Senegal
2) Nigeria
3) Algeria/Ivory coast

Best team in Africa right now
1) Algeria
2) Senegal
3) Nigeria

A Good coach can make a huge difference from 3rd to 1st place

Don't mind him. Most Nigerians lack proper education on what global best practice means.

These same people almost killed Keshi for handing the number 10 jersey to a local boy but are cool with a goalie with a couple of club appearances being number 1.
You want to talk about global practice? Go and ask Ter Stegen. Why is that when some things happen in Nigeria some people will start looking for validation from oyinbo man land? Leading up to the world cup Neur who had hardly played for 1 year due to injury was restored as Germany number one ahead of Stegen who was one of the best goalkeepers in Europe that season. When Loew tried to drop Neur, Bayern executives threatened the German FA to restore him as number one or they'll withdraw their players from the national team.

Why are u guys mad maduka is now the number 1 ? He plays in higher league than the other goalkeeper and u guys during a argument you always back up your claim with uefa club ranking and use it to downgrade one player for another

JohnBullMySon:
I no dey insult players. Get your facts right.

You're calling uzoho, Uzoho's case is even more controversial. Ezenwa was our keeper when ikeme retired, he kept throughout the qualifiers and did well, when uzoho started playing in Europe, Rohr benched Ezenwa straightaway, there was no struggle whatsoever. Ezenwa only played when there was a friendly in the same window with qualifiers. Like against Zimbabwe. Uzoho kept during the world cup on the hardwork of Ezenwa.

Osimhen was not yet performing during the world cup and afcon. His 20 goals for Charleroi was in the space of two seasons. Osimhen only picked up in July 2019 after afcon when he signed for lille. He displaced Onuachu who was second to ighalo then.

Maduka is our best keeper currently, he does not need to fight for anything, when his club performance drops, a keeper in form will take over. That's how Rohr does. When uzoho lost form big time before afcon, Rohr relegated him to third choice.

As for ndidi, we are saying the same thing, same with sanusi. When you are currently the best, you don't fight with anyone for the position. Same way omeruo benched balogun during afcon and now balogun has come back to bench him again. Dem no dey do fight for shirt in national team, matches no plenty for gambling. Your club performance will determine it. Maduka had already played first team football before starting in Algeria game. Me and you know that the Brazil match was a rare accidental chance for him.
very correct, besides many pundits have criticized Rohr for not having a permanent GK. Seems he settled for Uzoho post Afcon but that unfortunate injury scattered his plan

point of correction, he was number 1 in uzoho absence through Injury. An inform and fit Uzoho over Okoye for me but nothing is permanent. They're both young talented goalies that should have a long Se career

that's why I want iwobi to go to the wing when Onuachu is playing, he can lay accurate crosses for Onuachu.
Onuachu isn't even a starter, operation iwobi on the wings have been tested and failed so there's no point doing it again

Took Mali to the AFCON..that was an error.

Keshi never took togo to world cup. It was a foreign coach that took them in 06, since then, they never smell world cup again.

He was unfairly treated.. They should have left him alone after he decided to resign after the AFCON win..They brought him back and frustrated the life out of him..
Maybe if you work under an employee that constantly pushes you to the wall,maybe you won't do better than what Keshi did..

Nigeria got lucky against Algeria in Uyo. Without some unforgivable finishes Algeria would have beat us 5-3.

Zambia is a country that we will always be expected to beat. Plus that was right when they were about to make their transition into fashion sakala and the rest of their U20 boys. We just caught them at the right time. U can see how hard it was for us in the second leg, they even scored a clean goal that was cancelled.

Beating Cameroon never has anything to do with tactics on the day. It is a match fueled by passion and history.

Once the WCQ was over what did we see? Rohr has been exposed over and over again as in over his head but people are still defending him to my amazement. This man was out coached and out witted by a Sierra Leonian home and away.
You can tell us you don't like the coach but what you typed up there isn't it please, give the coach the credits he deserves

see my point here, we are using a few matches to judge Rohr and now excusing the many matches he performed well. In fact for the last four matches, I will say that we did badly in only two. That is the sierra Leone home game and the Algeria game. The problem was with the whole team, we felt that afcon qualifiers was a straight win throughout and we paid for that drop in team form.

nah, our problem with Rohr is the "Big games" can he make the right timely substation in games i.e vs Argentina (wc) Algeria (Anc) can he select his best 11 and Formation? Can he defeat the best team in Africa and be 1? Thats where people have doubts. Do you realize that Rohr indirectly concedes defeat or indirectly justify losses before big games when he keep alluding that "We're a young team" or "We're here to learn" before any big game. If rohr has to go, then a Proven WINNER comes come in but i.doubt nff has the money to hire a Proven wimner

How was he frustrated? He could and should have walked away after the WC but he didn't, don't forget that we lost at home to Congo you are just being emotional about keshi he was rightly fired. To the best of my knowledge the only local coach that have ever being treated unfairly was Amodu
