Well said. I am not happy that Alex Iwobi isn't starting this match either but I can totally understand why Rohr should still with the same team that has delivered - tried and tested. Personally, I would make 3 changes if I were in his shoes: Iwobi for Simon; Etebo for Onazi (then I will move Ndidi and Mikel into the DM slots and let Etebo bump forward), and Nacho for Ighalo. I will leave Elderson because I am not 100% sure that Aina is a natural LB. This game is too crucial to experiment players into makeshift positions. All in all, Rohr makes the calls and he knows best. He trained the players and knows them better than everyone of us. Having said that, I am predicting nothing less than a 2 goal margin of victory today. O pari Mujtahida: |

If Nigeria is a country with visionary leaders, Siasia and Amuneke would be the coaches drafted to assist and understudy Rohr. Those two are the future of Nigerian coaches. But in naija, we specialize in putting square pegs in round holes. O pari terzurum5: 1 Like |

Icon79:Yes substitutions will be made possibly along the lines you have suggested. Even Iwobi said what's important is for the team to win not him playing. If we are winning comfortably Aina will get his debut by substituting either Echiejile or Shehu. Let's guard that Shehu. Everybody would be thinking Echiejile while that Zambian Coach decides to spring a surprise through Shehu's position. 1 Like |

Hello Folks. As we wait upon this match that is likely to qualify us for the World Cup in Russia, I must salute the dedication that very many of you have put into discussing the Senior Male National football team for so long, spanning more than a thousand pages of this thread. The enormity of information on this thread is enough, if used appropriately, to set up the template for building national football teams that can win the world cup at cadet, youth and senior levels under the next two decades. I must however let you know that nairaland may be too narrow, and/or too far, despite the huge abundance of information being shared here, for the administrators and officials that make the most important decisions regarding Nigerian football. Narrow in the sense that there are too many distractions and trolling, bickering and tribal all-what-nots for some real talk on this website and that might just keep the eyes that matter away from the significant knowledge regularly shared hereon. 1 Like |

Yes, I will definitely wanna see Iwobi, Nacho, and Aina introduced in the game today. I think Nacho and Iwobi has the skillsets to hurt Zambia. The two of them were arguably the best players in our first game against Zambia. In addition, I wanna see how Aina is gonna perform in the green and white. However, I would prefer if he plays in his natural position so we can see him at his best. I am not a big believer in making people play the positions where they are not comfortable. We that that mistake by playing Ndidi as a RB in Zambia and it almost cost us. O pari Mujtahida: |

Of course, if you convince them that it's a long term plan - for them to take over the reins once Rohr leaves. As a matter of fact, this would've been done a year ago with the idea that Rohr would hand over to Siasia and Amuneke after the World Cup. O pari eitsei: 1 Like |

Icon79: @bolded. I think I gotta agree with u.. Echijele is probably the worst player in the team now but how sure are we that Aina can play the LB role well?? So far I've not see any game in which he played the role.. Rohr isn't underrating Zambia that's why he isn't taking any risk. Hopefully we will get to see Aina play the role after we clinch th world cup ticket today... |

Exactly. When we played Ndidi as a RB in Ndola, it almost cost us the match. Hopefully we can finish the job today so we can experiment against Algeria. O pari Danielnino00: |
