lol u sef dey follow quack news

joseph1013:

If I should take a guess, I will say this player is Shehu.

Prior to now, there was no reason for his invitations to the Eagles. Yet he was always invited. It was baffling selection.

But good for him, he eventually took his chances.

Kog45:
Don't u know some guys came into d team through agents when Rohr was new and it's still happening coz Aaron Samuel invitation still a puzzle to me.

If Aaron can make it why not Ejide,but funny enough Ejide lack d same confidence and composure that a lot believe is d problem of Akpeyi,I can tell anybody that Ezenwa and Ajiboye are better keeper than Ejide.

Recommending Ejide not Aiyenugba should tell u a lot are running d show behind Rohr.

If Enyeama w not make it,then we should concentrate on what we have,Akpeyi,Ezenwa, Ajiboye, Uzoho, Alampasu, instead of going back to Ejide.

I believe with more matches before WC things w take shape.

Do not call it quack news yet. Follow the source of the news item. The personality behind that news item is reachable. You can send him a mail.


It's too early to call every thing quack.

Cheers!!!

Algeria outclassed us and we won 3-1. Thank you Coachay goodjoe. What you want is for the team to use the players you have in mind, use your tactical set up, make substitutions according to your own ideas. So tell me, in all the six matches we have played under Rohr which one did he do well tactically and which one did he not do well (SA is obviously toast)

TheGoodJoe:


Why not watch the replay, watch closely and see we were not in control in that game against Algeria. Stop talking about the players I want, when it is definitely not true.

Same way I pointed out the Alloy Agu challenge and the next thing was it is because I want Alampasu in goal. Have you seen me complaining since Ezenwa started keeping?

Joebie:
Loan to where? Any official source on the signing? I couldn't pull it up when did the search. Only read of his trials with Rio Ave, and then Boavista.

joseph1013:

Once you turn pro, it doesn't matter what players passed the MRI. For instance, the 2013 set should not be all about the World Cup, it should include those who played the U17 qualifiers and those who went to the Africa U17. Thus, a player like Ndidi should be included, and many others.

They are all boys of Manu Garba and he will always be seen as the one who gave them as a gift to the nation.

Joebie:
It's okay to make recommendations biased or not. The job of the coach is to look at the recommendations if he wants and ascertain if they are good ones or bad ones. Aaron Samuel would never have got near the SE camp if not that he was pulled off from the standby list to replace a player. Olanare was probably pushed for because he was physical (for Cameroon tie), yet Rohr never named him (bad recent stats) in the main list -- not yielding. It was said Olanare did not impress, and since then he never got a recall -- fair decision. Let's not cry foul over nothing. It's a big lie that Rohr was considering recalling Ejide. We had a goalkeeper crises, granted, but why fabricate crazy news from that situation? From my checks, Ejide last played professionally in the Israeli top-tier in May 2015. Come on now, what coach will consider a 33 year old netminder for serious business, a player who has hardly been between the sticks for 2 years running. Tell that story to the kids.

Mujtahida:

Nooo but when you draw tactical set up you do have certain personel in mind na. I am not saying you are promoting them. You just have players in mind who you feel can execute your brand of football. Or is your tactics without personel?

TheGoodJoe:


So your advice to me is because we won the Algerians, I should not look out for where I think we can improve. Or, you want me to see a place we can improve and keep quiet. Finally keep that condescending tone in your write up. I do my best to treat others with respect here.

Kog45:
Yea very okay to make recommendations but not bad recommendation.

I can tell u anyone that recommend Aaron to Rohr did not wish Nigeria well,pls check d guy stats this season,pls forget physical, what is bad is bad and funny enough d guy did not measure up in camp.

If u check Aaron stats then u w agree Ejide too can make it,we can doubt d source but is possible.

Joebie:
okay send a link my way please

Mujtahida:

I employ sarcasm not condescension. You see the thing is that I am not bridling you or stopping you from pointing out defects, making suggestions - that's what makes this thread interesting. No team is perfect and perfection is a long road paved with improvements, adjustments and. What beats me is instead of saying the coach should do so and so(which every soccer fan does anyway) we label the coach as not technically savvy. Quite frankly I think such calls are too early. We have a full footballing year next year.

TheGoodJoe:


Coaches have different strengths. Rohr reads teams well. He is good at that. Rohr also knows how to find weaknesses in teams.

However, some might be good at setting up their teams to play in brilliant tactical fashion but poor in reading teams. I do not think it is wrong pointing Rohr's strength and weaknesses.

Nwobodo: I Can Make Super Eagles World Cup Squad



Ujpest of Hungary midfielder Obinna Nwobodo is not ruling himself out of a shock spot in the Super Eagles squad to the Russia 2018 World Cup, Comple tesportsnigeria.com reports.


Nigeria qualified for a third straight senior FIFA World Cup after claiming an impressing 13 points in five African qualifying Group B matches, leaving Zambia, Cameroon and Zambia behind.


Nwobodo won the Nigeria Professional Football League title with Enugu Rangers before leaving to join Hungarian top flight club Ujpest in 2017 where he has since become a regular.

Let's see if you will take that momentum to Russia.

They and Brazil are the only countries to win both trophies in the same year. Folks should watch out for the 3-Lions as from 2020. The combo of their present U-17 and U-20 will cause ripples in world football.
