See ehn, if I'm Aina, I won't accept another call up to the national team.. I might just fake an injury... The guy has suffered under Rohr... I'm not such a big fan of his because of his ability to lose concentration in games, but c'mon, he is a natural wingback.. the best wingback in the team..And in a game where you deployed wingback,you keep him on the bench and start Collins, a natural left back and Simon, a winger over him.... Rohr is wasting that guy time...


See my bruh, all this talk of wingback... Does our gaffer even know the meaning of that word talk less of its use? You have an ex defender as a coach, what do you expect? Where will his focus be? Does he even focus on attacking football. His philosophy is simple. If you can't score, don't concede! Everything else na insha Allah.

Wingback Sha? I laugh in swahili.

Yann sommer was one of the top performer for Switzerland during Euro. . Two days ago, he denied Italy an automatic qualification by saving Jorginho's last minute penalty.

Arsenal's defence couldn't contain leceister's forwards but Ramsdale was there to save them.


Can we count on Okoye to save the team at crucial times?

If na Ezenwa dey perform like Okoye, some people would be insulting him by now.
As jittery as Akpeyi is, I'm more comfortable with him than this Okoye.
I really miss Carl Ikeme... Very sure and confident.

I nor dey like if defenders and goal keepers dey shake

Maduka Okoye has not impressed me for once in eagles colour but his young age keep on telling me that he would be a good keeper in no distance future.

Now that Ahmed Musa has overtaken Joseph Yobo and Vincent Enyeama with highest appearance, can they now stop inviting him?

Chidera Ejuke is too amateurish with his style of play, I wonder why nobody talks to him about that.

Ndidi is supposed to be the player with the highest workrate but seems all he does is tackle and his job is done. (Next is walk around the pitch, hiding from the ball or pointing to another player that the ball should be passed to)

Simon is full of energy and muscle play, no end product, I wonder how he got up to 7 assists so far in his club.

Osihmen is good but needs to be more technical (I couldn't stop laughing when he shot that ball with all the muscles in the world, even if he scored that would have been a very ugly goal for a player of his profile. He should learn more technical ways of putting the ball past the goalkeeper without much stress)

Okoye, sometimes the way he catches the ball is so scary. Some catches that requires going with one hand he will go will two hands like a secondary school goalkeeper learner, thereby slowing his ability to stretch full length. (I wonder why the goalkeeper trainers haven't noticed)

Troost Ekong na wah oo, those days we use to say "calamity Yobo" I wonder what we will call Ekong's consistency in delivering errors after errors. Physically he looks like a bada$s, no nonsense defender but in reality he is the king of para (little charge from opponent he's already panicking)

Overall all Super Eagles players lack confidence on the ball, they lack idea and confidence of how to panetrate their opponent.

Even the coach is always scared to make changes. His changes are always not tactical, he lacks everything a coach should have and should find a ways to leave the team ASAP.

Thank you for saying this

But it won’t be right for him to reject call up sha

I won't blame him if he does..Shebi Kalu found an excuse not to be invited for the international break...Aina can find one too..
Rohr isn't interested in using players in their natural position..

When Okocha and Kanu were picking matches to play and we paid dearly for it.

Really surprised seeing Kanu played till 2010,he lost his mojo back in 2006 but keeping on getting preferential treatment just like what Ahmed Musa is enjoying now.

Kanu was the only thing in our midfield between 2006 and 2010 when okocha left. In fact in this period he saved us from defeat time after time. The team when okocha left was kanu and insha Allah.
Kanu even said the players had a psychological problem and I feel he is still right up till now

We may not have options but why can't the better one out of the two we have man the post.

And I believe our scouts are just bring lazy. If they are doing their job as they should, we might likely find one or two decent goalies either home or abroad.
