The one CAR scored came from defense splitting pass.
What happened to trying to pull your opponent from the defense? Let your opponents grow in confidence then hit them. A good tactician should be able to change strategy as the game progresses. If they are sitting deep, just kick the ball around and give them a sense of security, that you cannot bite.


CAR is a weaker side. The discussion is how to break a compact defence. Did the CAR team score against a compact defence? We were in the offensive.

C.A.R won because they were ambitious. They came to win in Lagos yesterday.

CAR is a weaker side on paper. But on the pitch you are already huffing and puffing trying to crack that defense. As you keep trying you get more frustrated..

CAR scored with one striker vs 2 seasoned defenders who have had the luxury of playing as a pair for almost 5 years now.

It is futile hoping to break a compact sides with long balls. You are playing to their advantage.

Iwobi is a key player

I saw quite a number of defense splitting passes sha.. They didn't sit too tight in defense throughout like we are saying.
We make it seem like C.AR. park bus. grin

One thing Rohr needs to realise is that a perfect midfield is indispensable. I get frustrated seeing this man inviting 4 midfielders almost all the time.


On lighter note, NFF should open nairaland account for the entire coaching crew make dem come dey soak knowledge from all of us here.

The regular posts by thesupernerd here will even help their scouting.

In the last 3 years, I have not seen a good game from Moses Simon and musa and anyone that wants them 2 to continue after continuous horrible performances is an enemy of Progress

Over the years, Moses has been doing well in his clubs under different coaches. How come he is not doing well under only Rohr in recent times?

People keep harping on Iwobi as if he has ever solved our midfield headaches. Perhaps, we should ask if Iwobi is the only option available to us. Iwobi is best an 8 or a wing-midfielder not a controller like Amoo , Nwakali or Obinna Nwobodo.


What drives me ffucking crazy is why is this useless whitey not inviting our boys, especially, when they are not bench warmers. And , please let nobody say any nonsense about the league they play in because Rohr has invited and kept inviting players in lowly rated leagues but turned a blind eye to these players who could solve our midfield problems.

Rohr was on the stand the day SE team B played Athletico Madrid in Nigeria and with his Kolo Kolo eyes he saw the magnificent act a clubless NWAKALI pulled off that day. Why is he acting like he doesn't know Nwakali has been playing and consistently improving. Couldn't he use the SE invite to encourage Nwakali and potentially sell him to a decent club, JUST LIKE HE HAS USED THE SUPER EAGLES TO SELL SOME FB TO BETTER CLUBS.

Has Moses ever performed under any coach that has coached the SE ? Answer this question.

On a serious note, I want to ask a question.
In the art of war, which is better? Reinforcing bunkers or getting more ammo?

What broke down Troy's impregnable defence? Strategy!
There goes your answer to why we lost

So, Moses Simon qualified Nigeria to the previous world cup and was dropped from the final 23man list. You will never change. I think it was just one assist admist hundreds of his usual unproductive dribbles and terrible set pieces....continue but na you go cry

Oga Joe, na pull out you de call defence splitting pass? The CAR got through on goal because the agbado players that were in front of him couldn't use their sense.

You're saying they should kick around but some here would label it as lack of urgency. The more you analyze the game the lesser accusations you could give Rohr for the loss

Thanks for the highlights, I didn't even know that CAR had a disallowed goal and a very close offside call against them. Infact that ball Uzoho saved should have been a goal and they wasted a fantastic opportunity to score as well. So what am I saying, I think we were even lucky to escape with just a 1-0 loss.

No , I watched him under Oliseh, too , and it was when he just got invited. He showed the usual first good impression but just like Aribo (and Ogbeche) he has consistently remained unproductive. Time will always reveal the true quality of a player. You are supposed to get better not fade , especially a young player.

Gavi ( 17 ) only has 5 appearances for FCB while Amoo ( 19 ) has 27 appearances for Hammarby while Nwakali ( 23 ) has 104 appearances in his club career.

Amoo and Nwakali should start games the same way Gavi started a semi-final game that's how you prepare players for the future and expose them to more scouts and people who watch international football, before that semi-final game I didn't know of any player called Gavi since I don't watch FCB matches...

but because they're Nigerian born and bred you want to treat them like they are Amateur footballers who only started playing professional football last week...

I hope Nigeria doesn't get banned in future because this match and the one against siera-leone are suspicious.... its like England losing to Andorra or San marino..

I hate long balls with passion grin

Nothing wrong with long balls, as long as it's with intent and it finds it's target. It's a way if switching play very fast and it helps catch opponents unaware.

Liverpool plays long balls every time, with Arnold and Van Dyke switching passes.

Long balls are usually bad to the eyes if they are always played aimlessly with no one in particular just like we did yesterday

The Naija style is not of long balls but kinda tiki taka that mirrors the Brazilian style and we must stick to our style and brand. Today , sadly , the Oyibo "genius " has turned us into something neither you nor I can define. Tueh !

Edited;

Ok , correction taken but keep this civil, otherwise I will give you the IDENNAA treatment.

Now , unto Moses; if you are trying to make a case for his continued inclusion in the first 11 what would you base that on. Did you see Chideraa Ejuke yesterday? Are you aware Rohr woulda still started Moses if Chukwueze was present ? Why must we keep inviting an unproductive player and kept starting him before superior talents? Answer my these questions.
