AIG07: Good additions with some accurate point but I disagree with your opinion on Nacho today. The first thing to notice is how many times we played the ball out from the back. It was normal for us but difficult for the Algerians. Nacho kept running and pressing so they could not build well. With a natural number nine, without Nacho's work rate would give the Algerians room to build. Also, his addition to that role gave us room to bring in Etebo, who was an ox on the field. I do not see Rohr dropping Etebo. He is key to our success in coming games. Most pressure is always from the defenders. So the passes to Nacho was not smooth. |

Oasis007: I repeat, Offside is not a call by the referee. It is a call made by the linesman. The referee made calls in favour of the Algerians over us. A good example was the Nacho case when an Algerian defender fouled Nacho and the referee waved play on. Nacho struggled ad won the ball and the referee blew foul. There were many calls like that. |

Oasis007: The linesman's flag is up. The referee can not see Offside positions from where he stands. He blows to the linesman's flag. |

TheSuperNerd: I think you guys are underestimating the quality of the Algerians. Defensively, they set up to make it difficult for Nacho. So it would prove difficult. However, his attributes helped the team excel today. Especially the flanking players, Mikel and Etebo. It is not about individual glory but the whole picture if the team. |

Guys, we have to discuss o. Kelechi is not effective as a lone striker as seen in City and Eagles yet if he has to play as a SS, one of the guys in the midfield today would have to go (Etebo, Mikel, Onazi/Ndidi). How practicable is this? cc: tbaba1234, thesupernerd, thegoodjoe, Michael2, goldfish80, icon4s, et al |

We still have Success and Aluko not in the squad. Now that is what I call having a hot choice of players. |

Rohr: What a tactician. Shocking that he just started building his team and they are already squashing Africa's number one. Wonder what this victory does to our ranking. Rohr's handling of Moses issue is brilliant and His work on Echiejile shows he is a master at bringing out the best in players. We salute Rohr. |

joseph1013: I say leave him there. Judge him against a less organised defensive side. The Algerians were solid at the back. That was why it proved difficult for Iheanacho. Remember his missed header? |

We could qualify as early as gameday 4. That will be a Nigerian record! The Cameroonian team is very static and Iwobi and Nacho must be licking their lips. |

joseph1013: I was not comfortable with Iheanacho as a lone striker. That boy is an AM/ SS. Even at City he does nt perform well as a lone striker. We missed Iheanacho today. Jst when Rohr thought he has solved the CF player problem he finds out that Iheanacho is not the right player for the CF job. To me Ighalo and Ideye are not any better. Isaac (the beast) Success could be the man for that role going forward. We need to bundle him to TB Joshua for deliverance from injuries first. I would like to see him and Kayode invited for the friendly(ies) in march. Iheanacho can go back to his number 10 role. Meaning Etebo will need to fight for a place as either a winger or CMF and that means more competition - what we always clamour for. |

BascoVanVeli: Apart from the cross from Shehu, Iheanacho did not get any clear cut chance from the midfield. That was how organised the Algerians were. I doubt we can categorise that as bad. |

Wat i took from this match is that we have a complete team. Everybody has been talking about Iheanacho, Iwobi and Mikel but we forgot about Vic, the guy came to prove a point, he was as hungry as any npfl player could be, the man just kept running my goodness. This team is so stacked, Algeria and their cook are leaving like what just hit us? Just shows on any night we have players good enough to make a difference. 1 Like |

Icon4s: Iheanacho is definitely a better choice than Musa. His pressing and running makes him vital to us. Something he did very well today. Also, judge after few games. You guys gave Ighalo ages and want Iheanacho out after one game. Iheanacho got into that position after impressing the coach in training. In a less organised defence and out players creating chances for him, we can judge Nacho then. |

Slimydude49: Hahaha. I dnt think so. Rohr knows the value of "big club players" in a team. He would rather drop Etebo. |

I can't but hold my joy for did wonderful victory, d number one team in Africa was masacxered by d free flowing football of the eagles, rohr got his selection sport on. mahrez was no where to be found. to be honest I think everyone who has been following d eagles since rohr took over all saw dis victory coming so am not all dat suprised , even from d first game against Tanzania we all knew a new era has began. d man knwd d strength of each of d players and deciphered a formation dat could contain it, I said it in one of my former post dat etebo would be d joker in dat team, and it turned out to be so. d young man was full of running, disrupting d play of d Algerians. I tink dey were lucky to conceded three goals. they brought out d beast in d super eagles and d coach with dat goal dey scored, even d substitutions were spot on. there is nothing stopping us from qualifying from d group NCOs even d camerounians HV noting to offer |
