Do you understand a preparatory match?

By the way, didn't south Africa beat Nigeria in Nigeria?

Didn't lowly Zimbabwe draw Nigeria in Nigeria?

charlesemeka85:
Southampton are regarded as favourites to land Spezia striker David Okereke.

The young forward is a target for Sassuolo, though they're falling behind Saints in the race for his signature.

Okereke favours a move to England and Southampton are happy to outbid all rivals to convince Spezia to sell.

Saints will offer £15m to sign Okereke, with the offer far outstripping what Serie ASassuolo can put together.

Okereke, 21, moved to Italy from Nigeria.

I think you need to understand the point. In an offensive system, a forward with mobility and accurate finishing will register brilliant stats. That is a high quality performance. Take the player from that set up and put him in a defensive one, the quality of his performance will diminish. That is what you guys call losing form, meanwhile it is the system that caused the drop in quality.

Take Suarez performance under Brendan Rodgers and Enrique, you will see insane goal and assists stats. Put him in an ultra defensive set up and you will see his performance will not be up to scratch. It is simple logic. Nothing hard.

More chances created gives more goals.
Less chances created gives less goals.

Nacho is built to thrive on chances created. Shakespeare, Puel and Rohr (currently) did not create such atmosphere.

You can not say flop when he was not given a regular run of games.

Finito.

Olulong:


At least we didn't loose to Namibia

andrew444:


What do I expect from you ?

Not suprised

Komekn will be worst

Olulong:


Sorry but I'll disagree CR7 scored an hat trick against Hungary(Euro 2016), against Switzerland (in the recent nations league) and against Spain (at the world cup) under the same conservative style.

Cavani and Suarez have continued to perform consistently under the same Conservative style. As a matter of fact Forlan was named the best player at the 2010 World cup playing under the same conservative style.

U claimed Rohr became a coward after the SA match but guess what we recorded bigger winning margins since then and in some of those games Iheanacho scored (against Cameroon and Argentina) up until he regressed and became poor so it still doesn't change the fact that Nacho has been poor!!!

forgiveness:


Someone who was crucial to winning the Europa League. Dey dere dey deceive yourself.

Europa wey Chelsea no use big boys

Despite him scoring 4 goals he is not better than chuks

Odoi is an overrated player

I will rate him if he does well this coming season seems he will get more opportunity as hazard is leaving ,but I will not be suprised if he is under pulisic shadow

forgiveness:


That's why you should respect the boy. He helped Chelsea FC to win the Europa cup without the big boys according to you.

Icon4s:


Chairman, the fact remains that he is not fully fit for this AFCON which is just a week away.

U said we should not rush him back meaning u are very aware that he has been out injured.

A player that only resumed training yesterday. And u know how physically tasking the African Game can be.

Well I have said my own.

forgiveness:


The match was played in Port Harcourt. How many matches was played there?

forgiveness:


NFF should gain full autonomy before disrespecting their sponsor.

BascoVanVeli:



It's called taking time. There was no need to rush him the AFCON didn't begin yesterday. If you know how tasking the African game is then you should also understand why Rohr wants Ighalo to take his time.

TheGoodJoe:


The taking time is where the criticism lies. We should not be taking time in preparation for the AFCON but selecting a team of fit players. If one is unfit, he should have been dropped, not selected to be recuperated in camp in preparation for the AFCON.

An unfit Ighalo is much better than Iheanacho

Guinea took Keita to the Afcon

BascoVanVeli:



You don't understand. If the tournament was today he would play but since it isn't the rest will do him good.

Earthquake3:

Guinea took Keita to the Afcon

Mickael2:



No agree oh. Why should they invite a half-fit Ighalo ahead of Iheanacho who by the way offers more in an attacking approach/offensive player. Rohr already decided who he wants to take to Egypt so Ighalo's injury didn't really concern him much. Isn't that so?

TheGoodJoe:


Why must it be Iheanacho? What of Awoniyi or did God not create him too? Your comment there is laced with bias. Boss Icon4s is very right. It is wrong for us going with a crocked striker when we have sufficient replacements.

Mickael2:



I am not taking sides but I think the two cases are different. Guinea has nobody else, we can point at 3-5 other capable players

Earthquake3:


Ighalo is our best striker

He has recovered from injury but needs not to be rushed into matches

So if you're a coach, you'll leave your best striker in such circumstance?

Joebie:
It’s all a display of egos and power play. We need to always look at the big picture if this country will ever progress

TheGoodJoe:


The reason why he needs not to be rushed is because he is unfit.

Gerrit?

Earthquake3:


As capable and experienced as Ighalo?

Joebie:
I’m asking about Abuja stadium

Earthquake3:


There is a difference between injured and match fit

Mickael2:



No offence but 'Ighalo' and 'capable' should never be used in the same sentence. The same guy that choked against Argentina when it mattered? I can count the number of games that he performed well with my fingers and I would need just one hand for that.

And this is his first Afcon, where exactly is the experience talk coming from?

TheGoodJoe:


Unfit. If you rush him in, his fitness might worsen.

So we are going with an unfit striker. Please, that is not match fitness.

Gerrit?
