chrisooblog: Because of the Benin game? When I was painting it here that Ezenwa and Akpeyi are not as bad as you guys tag them to be you didn't understand. Have you even considered the nature of opposition Akpeyi has faced for Nigeria? Egypt, Algeria, Senegal, South Africa. Real serious attacking teams. Ezenwa faced Benin home based players and you conclude he is the lesser evil than Akpeyi. Well..... your opinion. 1 Like |

Exclusive: Rohr Receives Bad News From RSA As Akpeyi Suffers Injury Ahead Of Cameroon Clash allnigeriasoccer.com Aug 23, 2017 12:07 PM Exclusive: Rohr Receives Bad News From RSA As Akpeyi Suffers Injury Ahead Of Cameroon Clash Nigeria coach Gernot Rohr has received bad news from South Africa regarding the fitness of his number one goalkeeper Daniel Akpeyi, ahead of the national team's vital World Cup qualifiers against Cameroon in September. Contrary to speculations in the local press, allnigeriasoccer.com can exclusively report that Akpeyi was not involved in Chippa United's 2-0 win over AmaZulu FC on Tuesday evening after picking up an injury in training days leading up to the clash at Nelson Mandela Bay Stadium (Port Elizabeth). The verdict from the Chilli Boys medics is that the Super Eagles netminder has suffered a 'minor injury' to a muscle. Though the severity of Akpeyi's injury is not as bad as first thought, he has been advised by the medical team not to train with Chippa United until he reports for international duty this weekend. The other goalkeepers named in the Super Eagles squad for the World Cup qualifiers against Cameroon are Ikechukwu Ezenwa and C.D. Feirense greenhorn Dele Alampasu. 3 Likes 1 Share |

egbon is it the nature of opposition that prevented akpeyi from knowing how to catch simple cross? ezenwa's own is even a little bit excusable he's homebased with lack of excellent facilities and coaching what is akpeyi's excuse? supposed experienced foreign based goalkeeper who is always jittery and playing like he's just making his debut. for goodness sake this is someone that couldn't command a starting jersey with u23s let me repeat U23! i'm not expecting magic from ezenwa but at least i expect him to get the basics right Icon4s: 2 Likes |

the goal we conceded against senegal what led to it. against south africa the cross from the south african winger which he fumbled and almost led to a goal. against algeria he was supposed to come out and punch the ball he punched balogun instead and in the confusion we almost conceded. and that's the last three matches he has played you have not answered the question why someone that couldn't be trusted for u23s in rio should be trusted in a crucial world cup qualifier against cameroon Icon4s: 2 Likes |

zicky: Ighalo is a strong attacker with tricks and skills and his hold up play is phenomenal. He will be a handful to the Cameroonians. Iheanacho,though a lethal struggles with establishing his presence. Most times his first touch is depressing and lets him down. 3 Likes |

Ighalo is a quality player any day and shouldn't be written off. I will start an inform Ighalo ahead of a fluttering Kelechi. I have high hopes for Kelechi and I still believe be can become a world class but HE NEEDS TO WORK ON HIS FIRST TOUCH! |

Icon4s:Players on stand-by will still be in their Base in Europe. However you look at it, it's going to be a rush job if we someone gets suspended or injured. I see Ezenwa is getting a love in.... Lol Shows how fickle Nigerian fans are. Just watch them deny they ever insulted Akpeyi if he produced a master class. |

do4luv14: Ighalo is a quality player who should be an example to our younger strikers. I have watched that AFCON qualifier against Egypt so many times and to be fair Ighalo put in some serious work there. He might not be the most clinical but he got the technique. Rohr need to work with his style. |

I fear that this comparison could easily gulp pages of arguments on here. I won't take anything from Ighalo. We have all seen his best days while playing in the Championship and the Premier League. But speaking about the Super Eagles, he is not the kind of player that is unplayable. If he could bring that best form we know him for to the SE, I have no issues at all oh. However, Iheanacho trumps Ighalo SE record-wise. And that is a fact. OMANBALA1: 2 Likes |

Good folks are churning out their starting eleven not excluding TheGoodJoe himself... I'm so suprised that TheGoodJoe now TheFunnyJoe has also decided to drop his favorite laundring business of 'pressing' for athletism. But why did it took him so long to know that the pressing gadget he has always fancy was never designed to press. Chai what a great victory for our man THEGOODJOE winning his old self(laughs). Thank goodness he has finally seen the light. *runs outta thread before he kicks me with his new kongfu shoes* 1 Like |

TheGoodJoe just need to say he has a new position at least for now. At least he has a stronger character than some of us that will stick to our argument come rain come sunshine. The day we stop learning, we stop growing. He has his reasons for his current shift in stance. As long as he clarifies his case, let's forget about the past. AIG07: |

Icon4s: I just did not want to answer. Some statements here baffles me. Rohr made it clear that he does not like disappointing young players. If Osimhen will not make the match day squad or sub, he would not invite him. Rohr is in camp with them. He has history with young players and has his reasons why he does not like disappointing them. Ighalo lost his place because of a drought. If he is back in form, it is a welcome thing. Osimhen needs to keep pushing and working hard. As I said clearly before, his break-in to the Super Eagles team depends on how fast he develops. I never, or read anywhere that he is a banker to start and make the team. It was clearly stated. If he develops well. I hope the young man stays hungry and work hard. He is in a nice team. Sad, I have to explain the same thing I stated earlier. |

E be like se na only me no sabi this guy called Anthony Nwakaeme. He seems to be the new revelation and rave of the moment. I will be stunned if this guy does not walk into the starting line-up with the reviews he gets here. |

AIG07: What the f are you writing here? We expect Cameroun to stay deep and hit us with long balls and you are talking pressing. Football is dynamic. You do not approach every game the same way. At least learn something today, you press teams to stop them from keeping the ball. Still, it does not mean we will not still press in case the Camerounians try to keep it. If we had someone like Aluko in the creative role who has pace, I will opt for Nacho up front. Unfortunately, Mikel and Iwobi are not pacy. That is why I am not rooting for any of them to play the creative midfield role. I am also not rooting for Ighalo upfront because of the same thing. I feel pace is the same way. It is so logical. I wonder what you are writing up there. |
