Idowu also plays left back but i suspect he is in the team as an option for right back not left back especially if Amuzie makes the list.

TheGoodJoe:


Why do you make such statement? Conte asked Mikel to leave after the Olympics not before. So why paste such post? We said the relationship strained after Mikel left for the Olympics. So how does Conte asking Mikel to leave after the Olympics change that?

Paper Work Issues Could Stop Dutch Nigerian Ebuehi From Honouring Super Eagles Call Up





Reports exclusively gathered by Owngoalnigeria.com has it that Tyronne Ebuehi
might not honour the invitation to the Nigeria
senior national team, due to issues bothering on
documentation.


Ebuehi as exclusively reported by
Owngoalnigeria.com is in the list of players, that
the coach of the Super Eagles of Nigeria Gernot
Rohr has penciled down for the November 12
qualifiers against Algeria in Uyo.


The ADO Den Haag defender has made five
league appearances this season with a goal to his name, in what is his third full season in the
Eredivisie.


However the right full back, who was born and
brought up in the Netherlands could miss out on the game as he is yet to be issued a Nigerian
passport, by the authorities.

Although he qualifies to represent Nigeria through his parents, the 20 year old presently holds only a Dutch passport and by rules, he need to be in possession of a Nigerian passport for him to be eligible to play for the West Africans.


”Ebuehi is in the list but he might not make it for the game against Algeria, unless he gets a
Nigerian passport before next month. For now he is not in possession of one and he needs it to play for Nigeria” Super Eagles insider @muyiwalawal told Owngoalnigeria.com.

Truth is that both players and coaches surf the Internet and read news and fans reviews of their games.
I know Joseph Yobo was a regular on kickoffnigeria.
Rohr appears to be a studios coach so far. I won't be surprised he surfs the net to review players available to him.
This thread will appear on the first page of any search engine.

After another night of hearing fans chanting insults as he guided Chelsea to an FA Cup quarter-final showdown at Manchester United, Benitez snapped and confirmed he would definitely be leaving the club.

As Benitez worked hard to guide Chelsea to win the Europa, Chelsea fans held derogatory banners and chanted insults at him. What kind of attitude is that?

Chelsea Fans Unveil Banner Calling For Michael Emenalo to Leave the Club

After all Emenalo did for Chelsea. The best and most successful technical director in the Club's history and this is the thank you he gets.

Do not think I am sad Mikel is leaving. I am happy.

Maybe Rohr should mirror conte's 3-4-3 formation due to a lack of quality full backs. Ikeme(GK),Omeruo(rcb),balogun(cb),ekong(lcb),echiejile(lwb),victor moses(rwb),ndidi/onazi(cm),mikel(cm),iheanacho(lw),iwobi(rw),ighalo(cf)

Nice contribution Sir....

But thing is with the likes of Ebuehi and Idowu (two regulars in their fullback roles for their club's first teams) and also a few more to look forward to in both the right and left back roles for the long run (Musa Mohammed-whenever he sorts out his club issues, Iorfa Jnr, Ehizibue, Josh Debayo, Jason Akiotu, Moses Odubajo-who's out for six months, etc), then the 3-4-3 will have to wait....

I still fancy the idea of a 3-4-3 as one of our many formation options based on match situations or opposition.

But as our main formation, I don't think so.

The South Africa national team has reportedly dumped Tokelo Rantie because he farted at manager Ephraim Mashaba.
The former AFC Bournemouth striker, currently in Turkey with Genclerbirligi , reportedly pulled down his trousers and farted in the direction of head coach Mashaba, which prompted his swift omission from the squad at the last international break.
At the time, a statement from Bafana Banana read:
"We thought in the spirit of encouraging team spirit and discipline, we must release Rantie from camp."
According to The Sun, however, a local South African report said: " Tokelo Rantie pulled down his pants and let one rip in the direction of Bafana Bafana coach Ephraim 'Shakes' Mashaba a few days ago in one of the most bizarre acts of obscenity ever seen in the national team.
"The flatulence was so suffocating that the putrid stench continues to hover over the team like a dark cloud."

the 3-4-3 can work for us, brilliantly too. You do not necessarily need two wingbacks for a 3-4-3, it depends on the kind of 3-4-3 you want to play. Like Barca under Pep would adjust to Abidal-Pique-Mascherano defence, with Alves pushing not into a midfield position but as a winger and Messi comes into the midfield instead so there will be literally no need for wingbacks. We can do that too since we have Omeruo-Ekong-Balogun as 3 good Cbs, Victor Moses can play that Alves role, but if we want to play the dual wingback formation then we might have a problem.

Conversely we could play a 3-5-2,
leon-Ekong-omeruo
moses-Ndidi-onazi-Iwobi
Mikel
Iheanacho-Ighalo.
I included Onazi there and positioned him beside Iwobi because Onazi is mobile and he will be the acting LB whenever we lose possession and Ndidi will be the standing DMF.

TheGoodJoe:


To me he was poor. He made lots of errors but I believe Conte used him wrongly. Why play him on the left?

SHOCKER: Rohr Calls Up Victor Osimhen, Drops Esiti And Igiebor, Obaboana On Standby For Algeria Tie
image
Ahead of Nigeria’s Russia World Cup 2018 qualifiers game against Algeria, Owngoalnigeria.com can reveal more shock names included by manager Gernot Rohr for the November 12 tie in Uyo.

Once again, the ever reliable Muyiwa Lawal, whose twitter handle goes by the name @muyiwalawal, revealed to Owngoalnigeria.com the changes made to the list by the German coach.

Gent of Belgium powerhouse Anderson Esiti and Maccabi Tel Aviv midfielder Nosa Igiebor have both been dropped with the manager handing a recall to John Ogu, who has been in fine form for Hapoel Be’er Sheva.

” Apparently Rohr wasn’t satisfied by Esiti in the game against Zambia and Nosa has not truly lived up to expectation, the two times he has been called up. They are both not in the list but I can confirm to you that John Ogu made the list” @muyiwalawal said in a chat.

He also revealed that Wolfsburg super teen Victor Osimhen was handed a shock recall by the coach after missing out on selection for the previous tie against Zambia in Ndola.

Meanwhile Godfrey Obaboana has been placed on standby as Rohr is yet to decide between the Turkish based central defender and Granada of Spain Uche Agbo.

With Ebuehi, all we need now is a half-caste left back to complete our half caste back four...

Brian Idowu is only 'quarter caste'... lol
