terzurum5:Starting eleven?my man,Samson Siasia led eagles beat Argentina national team 4-1.Do we say Rohr did not beat Argentina coz Lionel Messi was absent. The major issue now is that they want to drawn us into technical superiority between Rohr and Siasia,meaning Siasia beat inferior Argentina team while Rohr beat superior team. Forgetting football cannot be analyse like that,remember Keshi held the same South Africa team to 2-2 draw but Rohr lost 2 nil,do we say Keshi is superior technically. I for one have acknowledge Rohr achievement so far with eagles but i w not be blind to criticise him constructively if need be,some see Rohr as a perfect coach forgetting a lot didn't believe in Rohr in the first place cos his CV was not good enough even Amaju said he gambled with his appointment. 5 Likes |

SerVik: This guy must be deceiving himself thinking 9ja is in dire need of his unverified career This is the same type of player that can walk out on the team if unsatisfied for any reason I think Rohr should be careful about his desperacy to get players and should not make the national team look cheap. 14 Likes |

Kog45: I agree with you that Rohr was a gamble and not our first choice for coach. Also we shouldn't take anything away from our indigenous coaches who have achieved a lot as well. I used to be a strong advocate for 9ja coaches I still am but one thing they keep doing which irritates me is they turn the national team to an avenue for inviting 'their' boys. I still can't understand what Sylvester Igboun was doing in the national team. Why Isaac Promise and Solomon Okoronkwo were invited to the eagles I still don't understand. Or do we talk about Agbim etc. If our Nigerian coaches who have been coached by some of the best in the world in their playing days could stop using the national team as a means of selling players, I want to believe they will achieve consistent and sustained success. 3 Likes |

Kog45: The Siasia 4-1 victory over Argentina was a fixed game. The unusual betting trend in the final 5 mins of the game by known Asian betting syndicates indicated as much. We were lucky to escape a FIFA ban. For me, I will take that result with a pinch of salt. |

oloriooko:As i have said if not for Rohr saying he need ball playing defender,the guy offer nothing much from what we have presently,not try to criticise him cos have made mentioned of him on this thread that there was a Nigerian German born that captain Germany U20 team against Nigeria at WC. I watched him closely this season at least three matches cos he was always on the bench when season started and came into the team due to injury to one of the regular.So not that spectacular but normal defender who play ball on the ground and very useful in 3-5-2 formation,may be that what really drawn Rohr attention. |

Akpoguma's rumored earlier response to Rohr's interest. "I feel honoured, of course, but I am German. I was born here, so I should play for Germany too." My question always is who asked the question? That's the world for us. The reality is most people will respond depending on PR. The above response is a typical answer to a German media. My earlier stance was wait until Rohr makes the call or whatever then we will hear Akpoguma's decision. It's not official until it's official |

goldfish80:Just one of those rumours then cos Argentines back home believed is not possible for Argentina to lose by 4-1 to mere black nation. My man nothing like that happened and escaping FIFA ban for what,do any of our players involved cos i don't understand,match fixing is a serious issue and FIFA don't joke with it.Hope you remember John Fashanu and Liverpool legend Bruce Grobellar match fixing case,football Authority don't joke with it. The allegations was unfounded one and total baseless but my man you are saying it as if you are so sure,no o.Pls edit your comment cos a lot peep here and not good for our image. 3 Likes |

I’m still Super Eagles’ material, says Oboabona By Tolu Olorunmoteni - November 22, 2017 49 0 Nigeria's midfielder OBOABONA Godfrey Oboabona listens to his national anthem before the Nigeria vs Cape Verde friendly football match in preparation for the CAN 2013 tournament at Algarve Stadium in Faro on January 9, 2013 . Super Eagles’ defender, Godfrey Itama Oboabona, has said he still possesses the top notch quality in demand by the Gernot Rohr-led team. The 2013 Africa Cup of Nations champion last played for the Super Eagles under former Coach Sunday Oliseh in 2015 but believes in his quality despite playing in the Saudi Arabian league. “I don’t agree my quality has dropped just because I play my football in Saudi Arabia. We have quality stars in the Saudi league like Xavi Hernandez, Denilson, Kenwyne Jones, Royston Drenthe, Moussa Sow, Modibo Maiga and many others,” the former Rizespor of Turkey defender told AOIFootball.com. The former Sunshine Stars of Akure player has featured 44 times for the Super Eagles and has been a consistent performer at Al Ahli this season, featuring in all games this season for the club. Ahli have been top of the 14- team table since Match Day 3. --aoiFOOTBALL 1 Like |

I used to think that it was felix udokhai. I knew one of them Germans will play at the mundial for SE. Germans tho rate Udokhai over Akpoguma. if Rohr gets him, its a big plus. There should be depth in the bench too. He is young also. One never can tell, he may improve just like balogun. Joebie: 1 Like |

EVERTON AND LIVERPOOL CHASE NIGERIAN DEFENDER SHEHU ABDULLAHI Merseyside clubs Everton and Liverpool are interested in acquiring the services of Nigerian International defender Shehu Abdullahi 90MinutesGoal.com reports. The 24-years-old right back who plays for Cypriot side Anorthosis Famagusta, is highly rated as one of the top ten right backs in the World currently. "Yes we have offers from Spain, France, Italy and Merseyside clubs in England, a top source of Mitem Sports Sprl, the player representative told www.90MinutesGoal.com on Monday" "We will study which offer is best for our client, since he will be a free agent after the World Cup the source concluded". Shehu has been in splendid form for both club and country as he helped Nigeria qualify for her sixth World Cup and also helped his club reach the summit of the Cypriot league table after 12 matches played. A fine defender known for his man marking ability, horse like over lapping run and an eye for goal, as envident when his goal against Ermis was voted the second best goal in the Cypriot first division league for the 2016/2017 season. He will be a good addition to Liverpool or Everton, as both clubs cannot confidently lay claims of having a perfect understudy to Nathaniel Clyne and Seamus Coleman who are both first choice for Liverpool and Everton respectively. Everton have used five different players (Cuco Martina, Mason Holgate, Kenny, Tom Davies and Dominic Calvert-Lewin) since the injury to first choice Seamus Coleman in March 2017. And after 12 matches none of the five players has been able to hold on to a starting shirt for the next game. As for Liverpool, Nathanial Clyne has been the club most reliable player during the past two seasons, but Liverpool don't really have a natural replacement for him. While 18-year-old Trent Alexander-Arnold looks like a perfect replacement for Clyne due to his pace, energy and ball delivery, he still needs improvement quickly in his defensive abilities. Joe Gomez who made his England debut against Germany, is another right back who will be better suited as a center back due to his physicality, while Jon Flanagan lacks pace, height and physicality to be a modern day right back. Everton looks like the destination for Shehu Abdullahi judging from the fact that his representative Mitem Sports Sprl are also the representatives of Evertonian Henry Onyekuru. A move away from Anorthosis Famagusta looks likely in January, but the management of the club are hoping to keep hold of their prized jewel even though he will be a free agent after the World Cup in Russia in 2018. http://www.90minutesgoal.com/2017/11/Everton-and-Liverpool-chase-Nigeria-defender-Shehu-Abdullahi.html 2 Likes |
