no be this match wey Joebie carry come and nobody talk?

The referee ought to be beaten, what nonsense? How do you award two penalties to the home team out of the blue?

Do we even have a body or something that regulates these referees and their shady calls?

daveP:
smh@ public show of training. show the level of thinking of those in charge is so lackadaisical. Egypt and Tunisia are good at spying on cases like this.

solonnachi:
The Cameroonian players have been training secretly. But the Super Eagles are training publicly today. We are too accessible to every one. No wonder the result against South Africa.

Joebie:
while Cameroon's training is closed to the public, I read.
We did this before the SA match, and I remember SA reporters who witnessed our training, were saying we are too good for them, that they have already lost the game.. -- mind games.

now here we go again.

tbaba1234:


I feel Kayode is a better player but Nwakaeme offers something that we have lacked in recent games.

tbaba1234:


I rate Kayode and Kelechi ahead of him... From the wings (He plays mainly from the wings), I rate Victor Moses and Iwobi (yes, iwobi) ahead of him. Yes, he offers something (physicality, power and skill) for a game like this but let us not go overboard.

I have watched him for a while now.

Joebie:
The truth is Cameroon is targeting a win at Uyo. Forget what the coach says.

goldfish80:

My point is that the coaches after reviewing the game with the video editor coming in handy, they decided that the striking position was our undoing in the game. That's the reason why they invited all the midfielders who featured in that game with Mikel (of course), whilst inviting 3 new strikers.
This should be enough indicator to you that they think the striking position was flat out against South Africa.
They evidence is starring you in the face.

goldfish80:


First of all, I compared Kelechi with Nwakaeme in the skills department because most people have erroneously thought that Nwakaeme is the Emily Heskey type of jam body striker. Not knowing he actually is more skillful than our darling Kelechi. I had to fix that thought because Kelechi averages just 0.4 dribbles per game while Nwakaeme averages 1.7, for a little bit of perspective, Mbappe averages 1.3 dribbles per game.
So you see? Nwakaeme is actually a very polished player.

A few months ago on this thread when Nwakaeme's name popped up, about all the commenters derided him because of his looks. I felt very pained but ignored them because it would have quickly turned into a dirty fist fight if I intervened. I see most people now putting Nwakaeme on their imaginary starting list but he was roundly insulted because of his looks, tells you how babyish and petty people can be.

TheGoodJoe:


So what was the evidence that led to the invitation of Onyekuru, Kayode and Osimhen to the National team? It is just a case of keep building.

Ighalo was already in the team. He lost his place because he was not scoring for home or country.

Also, Rohr might be considering playing Iheanacho behind the attack because Iheanacho can also pass. His assists stats show this. This might also be due to lack of good final passes. So if Iheanacho has to deliver the passes, Rohr needs to look for a striker.

I wonder where the Heskey kind of player came from when I clearly put Nwakaeme to lead the attack because he will complement the speed, skill and creativity style a while ago.

goldfish80:

If Kelechi was effective and maybe scored hattrick, you think Rohr would have contemplated playing him behind a main striker? Food for thought.

goldfish80:


Since Rohr called up different personel up front and left the same midfield which featured against SA, it should tell you the department he thought was deficient in the last game.

goldfish80:

I didn't address you in particular with the Emily Heskey comparism. Just thought I should spell it out that he's not some beast of burden kind of striker who will bully and harass the Camerounians.

Icon79:
What difference does it make ?

Game plans, strategies and tactics are designed during the closed door training.
Got it

Having a rethink about my prior line up

Akpeyi bearing last change according Rohr

Aina. Balogun. Ekong. Echijiele

Ndidi. ONazi
V. Moses. Mikel. Etebo

Nacho


If Rohr can risk omeruo and Ndidi at right back definitely I don't see reason for him not to risk a natural right back
Since Aina and Moses have played togther before ,then they should be a able to understand each other chemistry and Rohr has a special interest in Aina during the camp in UK.

Kind having different thought about our DM...


Ndidi and Onazi pivoting the two position then once in a while Ndidi can help in attacking... So far is not that discipline in green white green then onazi should sit back to shield the defense


Mikel should do his normal attacking midfielding and concentrate on unlocking the defence of the Cameroonians

V. Moses and Etebo should do the damage for us...

I having been thinking should nacho lead the attack? Or Ighalo? Then I will go for nacho... Cos

1. His appearance and his goal ration on national assignment
2. Working with vmoses Mikel and Etebo which has work in our last two world cup qualifiers
3. He got a fighting spirit.


On goalkeeping dept... According to some report Rohr said he does not know who will man the post...

Am thinking Ezenwa cos atleast he has been in the set up of eagles for some time now... he has some experience during the liga tour in Spain and I think he didn't disappoint...

Mr Akpeyi has a very 'good' record in conceeding in any National assignment... If he eventually man the post it will only take miracle for us not to conceed against the Cameroonians...

Substition

Don't think Mikel will be allow to play 90mins cos of fitness issue... Etebo will take his place then maybe musa will come in for him..

Nacho might be remove too... .then ighalo will take his place..

I'm wishing super Eagle of Nigeria maximum 3points come Friday...


Like Safarigirl... Me too dream about us winning

I wish we win come Friday...
