Hahaha Icon79 follow?

TheSuperNerd:
I go with the bolded.... unto to Yaounde... my points have been made. It is not surprising if they are misunderstood. It is normal in discussions.


Reel out your first XI if you please.... Maybe a prediction too perhaps...

Joebie:
Different ways to kill a rat.. Ur own eh..

komekn:


How do you know I'm not already speaking to Amaju.

blueto:
misunderstood? hmm, ok, lets just navigate away from there and send the issue into oblivion

My preferred starting eleven remains the same as the one on Friday, except if Ighalo's injury unexpectedly deteriorates and other fitness issues arises amongst others, of which I don't see happening. Getting victory in this match is as nearly important as the first leg. Ola can come in depending on the progress of the game, which leaves Shehu to continue in the starting ix, he had an impressive performance from the previous game. In Rohr's voice: “you don't change a winning team”

TheSuperNerd:
Haba! u no know? Na him be..... **looks around first**


.... ehen... *whispers* na him be her fiancé-elect supposedly...

Note: Don't say a word about me to anyone ooo about this ooo... I never talked to you.

Joebie:
Because he is my brother na. How I no go know? All u agents make una start to beg for Kayode and co. Oya Oga forgiveness

Joebie:
Lol Na do4luv I sabi o.. In fact there was a new guy from her school lol

TheSuperNerd:
@bolded.... Make that into the phantom zone


Interesting.... same lineup... What do you have to say about the view of replacing Echiejile with Aina at LB for this second leg tie? Some are saying so here shaa....


Actually I also wanna hear Chief Icon4s' thought on this and yours too in your customary sesquipedalianic manner....


Bring on the analytical fun you guys... let's go!!!

OMANBALA1:
How can you guys forget the WORKAHOLIC Etebor so easily. Nawa ooo.
On a serious not I think Rohr should try him on the wing....His role need to be defined so we can can give a better evaluation. Etebor,to me is a midfield/winger/ss kind of player but his role hasn't been defined. Super Eagles has so much depth.

Mujtahida:
I do not see Rohr playing Ola Aina for Echiejile. Not from the beginning of the match at least. Perhaps if we are winning or the game is grinding towards the end.

safarigirl:
So we reached and passed page 1400 and nobody noticed because we were arguing on whether Ebuehi smashed Calabar girls or not on Friday and consequences of this smashing?

TheSuperNerd:
It will be hard to play Etebor ahead of either Moses on the wings.... At CD Feirense, Etebo wears the no.10 jersey and plays mainly as a LWF or Left sided AMF (Left midfielder) in a 4-2-3-1....

Also, when Iwobi returns... more competition for Etebor either centrally or on the wings....

Hard seeing past an Ndidi-Onazi double pivot also... Even though we saw Onazi-Etebor against Algeria with Mikel as AMF on both occasions.

I would love to see Ndidi-Etebor tried out someday... but that may remain not possible for now because I don't see Rohr dropping Onazi Plus Onazi did his place in the team a whole world of good with a beautiful performance on the overall.

So Etebor like Iheanacho will likely provide more depth from the bench.

As time goes on... we are seeing the team take shape... and evolve... Sometimes the opposition will dictate who starts for us and at other times.. we go with our proper first XI.... it all depends.

blueto:
Well, Ola is still young with lots of vigor and people may want him to replace Echiejile because the Cameroonians may have a game plan to exploit his side as a result of the perceived lapses from his football. But we should allow Echiejile to retain that position. At least his experience from marking the Cameroonian players in his wing will come in handy when facing them again, and also, with the support of defensively dependable wingers like V.Moses and S.Moses, he can cope.

I said earlier, this match is important, we shouldn't just embrace unnecessary experiments. I believe Ola himself has stated that He loves to play on the RB position more than the LB, and we ought to know what that means.

blueto:
this made me to remember Uniben 2015/2016 admission thread with over 2000+ pages. it is the thread with the most number of pages that I have seen on nairaland. Those days were the days that I was immersed in arguments with other participants that used the thread and that was how the thread grew with such exponential growth rate

Now the thread is lying desolate as a result of already being admitted into school.

OMANBALA1:


I would think that at some point Rohr will substitute Simon Moses,move Vic Moses to the right and unleash Etebor in the Left midfield; Or sub Mikel for Etebor.

In the the match against Cameroon when Mikel was substituted I was thinking Etebor would come in and now I was like has he gone down the pecking order ??...hmm. Is Mikel Agu above Etebor in the pecking order ?

TheSuperNerd:
I like the way you put it concerning Echiejile....and yes Ola did say he is much more comfortable as a RB/RWB than at LB/LWB.... he plays both roles well... but does one much better.

I see Echiejile starting too. We would be facing a huge crowd of Angry and revenge-seeking Camerounian fans who will wanna sew us lose by all means. I don't want Aina to crack under the pressure of trying to impress on his debut. Echiejile will start... unless...

Our team helped Echiejile and covered for his deficiency when it comes to pace but his experience is invaluable and he is still a fine baller... his ball controls still rock.

In the long run... I think Rohr should focus on getting/scouting more LB options... to "understudy" Echiejile (understudy is the decoy term here) but actually to be an upgrade on Echiejile in the long run...

Jordan comes to mind if we can get him.... uhmmm... Josh Debayo isn't proven yet... and Komekn's Sheyi Ojo... well... maybe he should be looked at too... since he plays LWB now I think...

Another matter is Mikel's long term replacement... Kelechi Nwakali comes to mind.... I would also add Ovie Ejaria if we can get him too.

Could say so much but lemme not leave the present and gobtoo far ahead into the future... we have a game in less than 25hrs from now. A game we must not lose.... at least for our WCQ unbeaten run's sake.

When I saw understudy Echiejile, my eyes popped for a second. The bracketed terms calmed my nerves.

OMANBALA1:


Ola Aina is definitely not starting the match. Not because Echiejile is indispensable but because we have a momentum and a winning team and we don't wanna experiment now.

blueto:
