JohnBullMySon:
I like being realistic and have nothing for or against Rohr. I just want to correct the high level of cluelessness here.

The level of result we're demanding from Rohr, can our team's quality match it?

Using other top African teams as a yardstick are we really underperforming?

You can't expect to Nigeria to have a smooth and clinical gameplay like Man City when we don't have the quality to match.

Don't be surprised if Rohr gets a bigger African team if sacked. Algeria were ready to employ him after world cup if he had been sacked.

Rohr has been given realistic objectives by the NFF. Win AFCON and qualify for World cup. So far he hasn't fumbled. So what's the fuss about sacking him because we drew Cape Verde.

Rohr cannot win AFCON. It is not a curse. He just isn't good enough to win AFCON. Forget 2019, a lot of teams have improved since then.

na super eagles be the worst team in the world

No mind them

When we say Rohr is bad, terribly bad, heres what we mean:

1- Too predictable. Any good tactical coach can read his tactics even before a match and beat him.

2- Always makes changes at the 68/70th munites. Any good coach who reads out games ahead and watch tapes of SE matches, would capitalize on this slugishness from our coach and cause havoc on the team before the 70th munites.

3- He is way too conservative. Like dammn! Which kind of coaches have an Ejuke, Chukwueze, and still plate difensively? My God! A game you needed to win, in your home, you resulted into the safe zone and started defending? What if they had scored in the 90th munites after wasting your time defending, when you should be playing mildly aggressively with a touch of carefulness? No wonder we always struggle. Our opponents can read us like an expo before an exam Lol

4- The coach loves familiar players. Hence, our opponents can easily counter our style and technique even before the kickoff. We saw this today as we scored, CVD went on the offensive and got one as soon as possible. Because they know we were going to fall back and relax as instructed by our coach. Yes! They know he's a scared overly-careful weakling.

5- We have a good midfield actually, but the tactics and style of play as instructed by the coach, doesn't bring out the best in the team. There is no single style of play, just move the ball forward to Osimhe and isha Allah.

6- Finally, we are in trouble next year if we keep playing like this. I mean, we are like an open manual that every coach and opponents can read and cage as they will.

Instead of playing mali make SE play Egypt.. those Malian are very good oo. I followed all their matches. Egypt is beatable. They even sack their coach during the qualify. Likely opponents for SE is Mali, Congo dr, Egypt, Ghana, Cameroon/ivory Coast.

Only Cameroon/ivory Coast or Mali is a real threat others na wash. I followed this qualify diligently. I know how most team plays. Why Egypt is little dangerous is because all this north Africa sabi play two legged tie well well. They know the tricks minus that. Egypt na wash. Mali is the real threat.

definitely hope it isn’t true.

And by the way, where’s TheSuperNerd? Nerdie May have some good information, he seems to know many people here.

And if he manages to win. We'll start hearing stupid comments like. Rohr has seriously improved. Rohr is the best coach in Africa.

AndSunGorilla:

Not at this time IMO. He needs to finish what he has started. Next thing is who we meet in the play offs. Meanwhile when do we get to know the fixtures for the play offs?

I think Dec

JohnBullMySon:

But be honest, really. Can Rohr win AFCON with what you have watched today?

If not because of Salisu Yusuf that was there, Rohr would have brought in Musa at the 70th minute counting and removed Iwobi.

dkay51:


But honestly do you rate Okoye above Uzoho?

yes of course. Their progression is clear for all to see and judge.

Mujtahida:

It's not about whether we win or lose. I'm about something that the goodjoe emphasizes often: quality of play.
Our play is just too poor, agonizingly drab and threadbare.

The only thing nigeria teams need now is Thegoodjoe's philosophies.
Not only the super eagles but the entire nigeria teams,from u-17,20,23 to super eagles.

Let us hope Tunisia draws or loses to Zambia so we can have two less big teams to worry about.

Since you are okay with rohr then enjoy him

Icon79:
Good point on the Naija factor sha.

As regards to Sunday Oliseh, he’s a good coach but a very poor man manager. I don’t wanna see him anywhere near Super Eagles team again, as a coach.


O pari

you people keep saying he’s a good coach but his results for Nigeria says otherwise

jihday:
we’ve done it 3 times in the past and it never ended well why do it again?

maybe he wants another lagerback situation recipe for disaster then the coach runs away after cooking a purge meal for Nigerians to eat we better leave rorh to finish watin he don start

You opinions has a bias view in it with respect to what this thread stands for

you're correct..

Everyone is bias one way or the other...

I don't like pretending and I don't hide the fact that I have bias views... and its because of these "bias views" that we must ensure highly rated people are picked from the different ethnicities in Nigeria to represent and not mediocre people or people past their prime...

If it was left to a lot of people on this thread no northern Nigerian will make the team... because southern Nigeria has a depth of talent that is mouth watering...

GMB in my books is not highly rated but his the president and over 190 million Nigerians are suffering from the fact that his not highly rated and his bias protection towards criminals who share the same ethnicity as him instead of having bias towards graduates and intellectuals who share the same ethnicity as him.

In life you're free to support whoever you want but its foolishness to intentionally support criminals and 3rd class graduates of the same ethnicity as you when there are exceptional people and first class graduates who share the same ethnicity as you.

yinkeys:

The main priority now is winning the nations cup
Keshi’s team didn’t start well in 2013 but they won.

Me o, I can't raise my expectations, on current form we are not contenders to win the afcon. Now we have the players for sure but the team is not properly managed, Rohr can't take us anywhere. Rohr is inflexible and doesn't make big decisions.

Keshi at the 2013 ANC wasn't afraid to ruffle feathers. He dropped the big boys that didn't perform at the ANC, Yobo, Uche, nwankwo Obiorah, Nosa Igiebor. Pa Rohr would not make such bold decisions.

Today's game was an easy game to win.

Firstly, Ighalo shouln't have come in for the second half. I would have had Iheanacho in since then.

Next, when Simon got injured, I would have swiched him with Aina and at the same time remove Aribo for Onyeka. Aribo was gassed.

Next, around 70 mins, I would have removed both Osimhen and Iwobi and put in Ejuke and Chukwueze to peg Cape Verde defenders back. That would have relieved most of the pressure on us in the dying minutes.

codemaniacs:


u're right.. because employing Rohr was and is expensive and sacking him will also be expensive unlike if the coach was Nigerian....

and 11 prime Ahmed Musa is a very good team.

Rohr enables their corruption and anyhowness

I will never forgive Pinnick and the rest of those clowns for fumbling the Herve Renard appointment all those years ago.

But seriously this formart caf use..although good for the continent

But I no personally like am

See as BP wan kill person pikin today

Joebie:
lol.. chei!!!
I thank God say I no watch the match.

I know some rude and uncouth people will cme fr my head and I will ignore them as usual. I enjoy ignoring them

I said it here that I won't be surprised if we ended up drawing and here we have it

I am not surprised. I didn't even watch the match

This is the worst SE team in recent time
Those clamouring for Ighalo can now see how useless that act is
Rohr has plateaued, no tactical improvement, no flavor no flair as a coach
Our defence is a complete washout
Our midfield is flat no ball carrier no presence
I can't see this team going far in the playoff
Very sad

charlesemeka85:

Ha, problem, problem, another problem

drDoom3:

Who is the second less big team you don't have to worry about?

Tunisia is ranked Top 5, so, we wouldn't have to worry about them win or lose.

O pari

it seems, he had been very busy lately

FIFApresident1:
The continent of Africa cannot afford another shameful display at the mundial.

Algeria, Morocco, Cote d'l voire, Mali and Senegal appears to be the countries that can get our great continent a B (or at least a C) performance in Qatar..

I hope and pray these five aforementioned countries qualify.

Amen to this

No pint going just to take pics and make numbers or win best jersey

cromz:
Good game from the Super Eagles the Cape Verdean keeper was outstanding. Our defense was good. How ever we need to work better on transitioning from defense to attack and no one is even talking about our wastefulness.
The game was a tough one but thank God we scaled through. God bless Nigeria

Seriously

safarigirl:


Who is the second less big team you don't have to worry about?

Tunisia is ranked Top 5, so, we wouldn't have to worry about them win or lose.

If Tunisia loses, Egypt enters top 5. Egypt will have to play another team from the unseeded section, taking another potentially big team (e.g Ivory Coast/Cameroon, Mali, Ghana) out of our worries.

To some peple Rhr is the best cach in the World and we are being unfair

How can yu drop 5 points at hme to team yu're ranked well above by FIFA

Yet, we are being inconsiderate

The real patriot calls out a mediocre coach and doesn't support mediocrity

I tell yu that we as a country can do better

OUr boys are playing well below their potential all thanks to Rohr and Amaju who renewed a bogus contract

It is well!!

safarigirl:


LOL

At this point, na only terminal illness fit make Rohr no coach us again.

Not coming home with AFCON may attract his sacking,
But not making it to semi finals will definitely get him sacked within 24rs irrespective of that so called meaningless clause they blindly signed
