Lamiri:
my brother I have been trying to solve that puzzle since oo, if that puzzle is solved our chances of a better outing in Russia is increased

Truly there's a puzzle in that midfield that is yet to be resolved. It even includes the AM /CM/DM dilemma. There's something not yet smooth about Mikel, Onazi, Ndidi midfield combination.

Btw your moniker is new. It's traditional to welcome new members on board. Are you a new on this thread?

TheGoodJoe:


Aluko deserves a call-up. Always one of the top in my list. He has the ability to play multiple positions in the forward line. He also makes the team play better because of his ability to attract players to him, creating channels for the pacy forwards to exploit.

Keep in mind, Rohr likes Etebo and Iwobi. He also looks satisfied with the combination of Mikel Obi, Ndidi and Onazi. A solid midfield set up.

I would still like Rohr to look in and do some final polishing. Make sure we are going with the right players.

If Rohr is satisfied and he is not influenced in the selection, then it is fine by me.

His selections may be his choice and not influenced.

If his choice, is his singular choice free from undue misrepresentation and manipulation by NFF officials and other nefarious stakeholders then I'll accept it even if I don't necessarily agree with it all.

However, I find it hard to believe, "A leopard never never changes it's spots"

Do you really think after decades of Egunje influence peddling, bribery and corruption which is imprinted on the DNA of the NFA =NFF and has been from time immemorial. That all of a sudden they have become filled with truth, integrity, Fair-Play and righteousness because of one oyibo Rohr. It's like saying the whole NFF have just become born again miracles do happen buy this one go hard oh !!!

So let's say I'm deeply skeptical so I still believe godfatherism and Egunje are alive and kicking in the NFF.

Joebie:
Let him release it when he is ready. Coach will still be get criticism for when he chooses to release his list?

I taya oooo

tbaba1234:
England is taking youth football seriously

Why All of a sudden.

I also can not help but notice the representation of the children of African origin is now overwhelming. More black boys than Oyibo at all levels

Another reason for this success.

Icon79:
I believe that I asked the same question on Monday. The game is barely two weeks away and we still haven't seen who's invited for the match.

Strange!


O pari

It's strange oooo. I hope it's not what I am thinking.

Joebie:

Hitherto, as you well know, the list comes out at least three weeks to any match. Abi we have soft pedalled because we have qualified?

Claude Puel has been named Leicester City's new manager.

confirm and personally Onazi also needs a replacement because of the way the guy entertains injury

Give him the benefit of the doubt. What if he is considering some new players and wants to see more of them play in the league before concluding.

ChrisKels:
Nobody talks about Ryan Sanusi (the midfielder that scores with ease) no more, what happened?

Da forgiveness I hope all is well?

I know him and I have spoken about him here before but many are not interested.

He helped the his club gained promotion 3 seasons ago to the Eredivise. His case is not different from Dessers but people wan hear say you don score 100 goals before dem look ya side.

He's a DMF. He can challenge Agu for the slot.

Shey the match is in two weeks? Expect the list latest Tuesday next week...however, I think it will be out by the end of this week.

By Friday next week, camp will be open after the UCL and Europa games

Eagles star Moses Simon reveals why he is firing again in Belgium


By admin -

Moses Simon is firing again with Belgian club KAA Gent – 3 goals, 2 assists in the last 3 matches – and he has revealed this is so because he is doing less defending under a new coach.

Moses Simon took Belgian league by storm when he joined Gent in January 2015 from Slovak champions AS Tencin, but lately he appears to struggle to get back to such form.

The 22-year-old flying winger himself has given reasons for his new-found form.

He said under sacked coach Hein Vanheizebrouck he was forced to defend a lot more and that affected what he could offer upfront, but that is not the case with new coach Yves Vanderhaeghe.

“I previously had to defend more and that affected how I attacked,” he revealed.

“But the new coach has asked for more action upfront.

“That’s what we need and that’s what can win us games.

“So now if they put three men on me, (Samuel) Kalu will be free and if they put three men on him, I will be free.”

That same coach is coaching Henry now so let us see how things go.

The last time I saw him played I realized he was played as a LM and was always defending.

I understand your fears and truly corruption has destroyed our faith in those at the helm of affairs. However take a look at the qualifiers :90% of the time the players invited merited it. So even though we know they MUST do mago mago for one or more players let's just give them the benefit of the doubt to give Rohr freedom to take a team that is 90% strong in quality.

Joebie:
They still have Spain to beat. I'm for Spain

na true sef. If dem win now, British media no go let us hear word. The mvp from their team will be tagged 3ice the price when Nacho won it years back. Then they go wan force them to play topflight football, all cos their English. But Spain too go do their own sha.

forgiveness:


The last time I saw I realized he was played as a LM and was always defending.

He just scored one goal from open play. The other two were penalties.

Omo, you know Naija and our ways na. As in my fears is related to your post this afternoon regarding pressure and interference.

Icon79:
England players would never amount to anything in world football as long as the British pundits keep over rating them. Most of them are average at best but these pundits make them feel like world class. I was watching Spurs vs Liverpool last Saturday and I almost turned off my TV when I heard the match analyst telling the whole world that Harry Kane is already at Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo's levels!

Can you imagine? Harry Kane who can't dribble to save his life being compared with the GOAT like Leo Messi!! What an insult!!!

That my brother, is why the British players never do well once they step outside the EPL. I am praying and hoping that Harry Kane would go to Real Madrid so he would get exposed by La Liga.


O pari

Bros, England has produced world class players than Nigeria.

Harry Kane goals are no flukes, he is definitely a world class player. I didn't believe it initially but succumbed whenever I saw him scored.

Sadiq Umar starts again.

It's like the involvement of the fans this time around is higher than previous years. Everybody watching like a hen over her brood. Who knows what we will hatch with this level of deep involvement.
