And if you had properly read my post you would have seen that I only used Rohr's words against him. So you think talking about Mikel matters to my destiny? Try to read my post again but this time slowly. And also tell your Mikel to start playing every week or else he will soon be benched according to Rohr,There is a new sheriff in town
bros, Mikel is unbenchable in the Nigerian team, foe now, he can even retire from club football and still get playing time, he's THAT good

The sooner you Mikel trolls learn that, the easier it will be for you to watch Nigeria's games, inukwa?

Yaaaaaayyyyy!!!!! *dancing shoki*

Rohr said he will discuss with the chelsea and leicester managers about Mikel and Musa respectively if their game time do not improve in the weeks leading to the algeria game. smiley

He neva even talk sef and Musa don get nod ahead of Slimani today (possibly because of UCL next week shaa sad )... Or maybe he did call? wink

Ola Aina is also on the Chelsea bench alongside Solanke. I'm loving this weekend already... smiley

You still don't get it.... As a right wingback, you are expected to play both defensively and offensively.

My own na dis: Echiejile na left back. Moses plays on the right... So how e take connect?? Tu comprends?? smiley

In our Super Eagles na Iwobi dey left not Moses.

He's the one that's wrong, Echiejile is a LB while Moses is a WF that plays offensive and defensively according to their last match.

So how would Moses replace Echiejile? smiley

Moses is too useful upfront to consider him as a full back except we plan to play a 3-5-2 formation. Besides elderson is manageable. Its the right back position that needs urgent recruitment.

With our current 4-2-3-1, Moses can still play offensively and defensively as a RWF to cover up for whose so ever plays as) RB. Elderson is not manageable against the pacy and tricky Algerian wingers, it's either we get a reasonable replacement for him or the LWF should cover for him.

Well I guess the LWF will have to cover for him as there is no replacement at the moment.

Meanwhile, with Moses back what starting front line up would you suggest for us against Algeria?

I would go with

--Onazi-----Mikel--

Moses-----Iheanacho------Iwobi

--Ideye--

Subs

Isaac success for Iwobi
Ighalo for Ideye

Victor Moses showing why he's the last surebet in the trident-puzzle of our AMFs (RMF, AMF, LMF) to fill in our front four and start for Nigeria in a 4-2-3-1.

Victor Moses on fire!!!! Algeria worried about just Iwobi and Nacho?? Hahahahahahaha... Abeg make pesin add Moses to that list of headaches for the Algerians. grin

Ola Aina... Decent shaa... Not enough time to really see him in action. I want am badly ooo... For Our Super Eagles R.B. Options... smiley

Iheanacho starting.... grin hehehehehehe.... See you guys afterwards. smiley

Iwobi also will be in action as expected... smiley

Exactly.! This is my point, Success should not start cos he lacks that defensively mentality unless we find a better replacement for the LB. Ighalo will start ahead of Ideye

Iwobi is awe-inspiring!!! smiley Who saw that "moment of the match"? His skills and ability to ghost pass people like they are not even there.... smiley

I am really miffed Iwobi didn't make the 30-man list of nominess for the CAF APOTY Award.



Iheanacho..... Got very few chances. In the first half, his involvement in build-up play was admirable but Man City didn't create any real chances on target, save for that penalty from De-bruyne which was saved by super stekelenberg.

In the second half, Nacho produced one shot on target. THAT SKILLFUL SIDE-BACK HEELED STRIKE from a tight angle that was stopped by the super impressive stekelenberg. Nacho didn't get any real chance to shine more than normal. But his build-up play involvements were really cool with quick passes and fast release of a team-mate.

I was really pissed when Aguero came in and told someone that Aguero won't score in this match coz I don't see what he will do that Nacho hasn't done.
FOR GOODNESS SAKE, HOW MANY CHANCES DID NACHO GET?? WERE HIS TEAM MATES THAT KEEN TO SEEK HIM OUT/PICK HIM OUT.....??

BUT WHEN AGUERO CAME, YOU SAW MAN CITY FLYING BALLS IN FROM THE WINGS.... ALL LOOKING TO FEED AGUERO WITH A KILLER PASS.... Arrrrrrrrgggggggghhhhhhh.... *pissed*

Anyway, when Aguero won that penalty, I stood my ground and insisted Aguero won't score..... I even said that even if Man city does equalise, it will come thru another player BUT NOT AGUERO. Haba!!!

Pep was looking for goals... Why take out Nacho? Why not throw in Aguero with Nacho? And make it a 4-4-2 or 3-5-2 as Man City were gaining a foothold in attack before Nacho was subbed... (That Nacho skillful tight angle strike).

I was angry. Nacho is hotter and more in form than Kun Aguero. So why take him out??
Kun missed a penalty for Argentina sef in their 1-0 WCQ loss to Paraguay.

Bia Sir TheGoodJoe...... Berra tell Pep Guardiola to take his time oooo..... And as for the man city midfielders.... Hmmm... I dey watch in 3D and HD.

TheGoodJoe:


Do you know the system of Oliseh's coaching methods? How can you summarize that because Rohr coached with Slides that others did not or can't?

Alex Ferguson's Gulf in class to Pep Guardiola was like a World Class surgeon to a Pre Med Student. That did not stop Guardiola from schooling Alex Ferguson in the art of possession-heavy football in two Champions League finals.
Good to know Oliseh usually sent spies to watch games involving our opponents that is when he is done searching for obscure names from the management books of Churchill.
So what if ferrgie lost a couple games against Barca? Didnt he beat the same Lord Pep Guardiola Barcelona in the 2008 semis?
The parallel line you're trying to draw doesn't change the fact that Rohr is like a 20yrs experienced heart surgeon while Yusuf is like a nurse who has helped in 15 heart surgeries. Between the two I know who I will trust to perform a heart procedure on my father. (hypothetically)

Good to know Oliseh usually sent spies to watch games involving our opponents that is when he is done searching for obscure names from the management books of Churchill.
So what if ferrgie lost a couple games against Barca? Didnt he beat the same Lord Pep Guardiola Barcelona in the 2008 semis?
The parallel line you're trying to draw doesn't change the fact that Rohr is like a 20yrs experienced heart surgeon while Yusuf is like a nurse who has helped in 15 heart surgeries. Between the two I know who I will trust to perform a heart procedure on my father. (hypothetically)

You expect Oliseh that the NFF did not pay for three months to pay flight ticket for a member of the coaching crew to watch (not spy) the opponents play.

I repeat, Fergie had World class experience and was schooled by a coach who was in his first year of coaching.

I have no doubt in my mind Salisu would have won these two games Rohr won.

We can support Rohr without pulling down others. Sylvanus Okpala is a footballing genius and was revolutionary under Keshi. Yet he got sacked with out payoff. So it is wrong pulling the local coaches when they hardly get support.
