Mujtahida:But I don't thinks its our WC kit 'cos there has never been a news about it. The top would have looked better if it has a bit of white features on it. |

Goke7: That formation is heavily dependent on very mobile lwb and rwb..can you tell me echiejiele is mobile, quick and can create an outlet for the team on the wing? Abeg plz Alderson would have fumbled terribly if he played as a lwb.. 7 Likes |

Mujtahida: I don't particularly like that darker shade of green. It is not our color. I would have even preferred it to be white. And it also seem as if the joining of the two shades of green materials is not so smooth. |

So pinnick has promised us 2 friendlies against European teams, and 2 against Asian teams. With the Afcon qualifiers against Seychelles, that's 5 games before the mundial. Can we have more? 5 Likes |

TheGoodJoe: experience is key, we can't discard that. No matter how good a player is, as any tournament progresses, experience is highly needed, without experienced players like moses, mikel and onazi, we won't have qualified for the world cup 3 Likes |

My Observation from watching 35 minutes of the first half of the Argentina match: 1. Balogun is doing too much ball playing than he should do. He needs stay at the back and make simple passes. 2. Aina is good at marking his man. The formation demands that he go forward when we are in possession, this he did very well. Balogun has no business going forward. Balogun made Aina look bad. 3. The second Argentina goal was caused by Mikel. Now let me land before you fight me. Argentina was in possession in their backline and Mikel came forward to tackle, going completely out of the midfield position. Mikel as the pillar of our midfield, was absent as soon as Argentina launched a counter. Balogun in turn as I already mentioned was not at the back line, and was not fast enough to catch up, this exposed us at the rear. 4. Shehu could not keep up with his man. Our wing backs need to be really fast. Even Aina is not really fast. This formation calls for fast wing backs. 6. John Ogu is a very good tackler. 7. Ndidi is a workaholic. I see why he is compared to Kante. 8. We played conservatively. I think for the first 20 minutes or so we had not even managed a single shot at goal. 9. But for the lapses mentioned above, especially Akpeyi's blunder, we didn't do badly in the first 35 minutes. 6 Likes |

I think Rohr should try Echejile out as a CB especially if we're going to play with 3 at the back. |

Mujtahida: In Kayode's cases, Rohr doesn't want him but the problem is, Rohr made us believed players not good enough in camp don't need to play but here we are, Ogu and Ebuehi performance yesterday said otherwise. Ebuehi was wonderful and far better than Shehu going by the match I watched today. Offensively and defensively he is better than Shehu. Well, it may be due to the formation or pattern of play and that is one of the reason we still need to see him(Ebuehi) play in a 4-3-3 formation. 1 Like |

I said 48th. Consider both pics. I'm using FIFA calculator, not my own guess. It's still an estimate like I said earlier. And you will be dead wrong. realpoacher:

Goke7:What potentials did Aina show? ... His position was the tunnel for the Argentines' attacks before he was taken off for Idowu who shut it down and even added to our attack. It was glaring Aina can't attack and even score the way Idowu did in that match. |

forgiveness: Your hate for Rohr's style of doing things is becoming obvious by the minute. I bet you prayed hard yesterday for an embarrassing defeat for us in order to mock him. Every day "Rohr must play this", "must invite that", "Rohr is corrupt", "Rohr is inept", "Rohr is this", "Rohr is that". Maybe NFF should sack Rohr so that you can bring your badluck into our team. Better drop your hate else you will choke on it!! ![]() 10 Likes |

Goke7: We need to kill that experience talk. Mikel Obi is there because he is our best orchestrator. We have no one, home or Abroad that can do what Mikel Obi does. That is why he should play. Victor Moses is our best right/left side attacker. We do not have someone better. Onazi's work rate is unbelievable. Think best, and not experience. Experience creates room for Bias. We can see Uzoho is better than Ezenwa and Akpeyi. Finito. 7 Likes |

MetalJigsaw: Argentina played badly in the first half. It was not as if they were destroying Aina. Aina put in a decent shift defensively. Aina struggled with having to bomb forward. His instinct is to hold back as a full back. Defensively, he did not do badly.He was bad going forward. |
