His decision making is his Achilles' heel.

Against Cameroun in Yaoundé... evident.

Against Angola at the CHAN for that goal due to poor communication with his defender.... evident.

Against Algeria.... evident again.

Against Sudan at the CHAN... cost him his injury. Evident.

Well, he is still a fine Goalie... but has no chance or potential of becoming near world class. He is far from it.

tbaba1234:
My problem with Ezenwa is that he rushes out too much. Rush of blood to the head.

Look at his injury, He came rushing out with his feet when Eze had it covered,

TheGoodJoe:


Ajiboye is no way rated among the top best goalies in the World. If that is grooming well in your books, no problem.

How can you ask about Spanish National team and grooming De Gea. You are clearly off track. Get the point.

The Europeans have a system that helps in grooming their top talents. We have been fortunate to have some of our special talent groomed in the same system. Iheanacho is a clear case.

Some of our special talents will not have the opportunity to get into such system, and we need to make conscious efforts to help groom and expose them.

Ajiboye was outstanding. We do not produce keepers like him regularly but we did not make efforts to help him grow despite his immense talent. We should do more.

The point is too simple.

Vanzekin is and was no where in talent close to Akpan Bassey, let alone Ajiboye. I wonder why you are bringing him into the picture.

Agree with u on vanzekim.....he was a decent goalkeeper but Ajiboye was top notch!

zuchyblink:
The Enyimba fc left back Ikouwem udoh is top class

Yea dt guy is good,can also b given a look in after d world cup

I thought we are only going to the world cup with 23 man team?

Everyone being picked to go to the world cup.

Make una small small o lol.

Rohr knows 80% of his team already (according to him) so where would all these new names fit into?

As for goal keeping position, those he's likely to pick are known by him but the order of picking is what is giving him issues IMO.

The friendlies should allow at least 4-6 keepers get tried. We have 5-6 friendlies, let each of them have 2 trials each (2 halves).

Even if we have 6 goal keepers to try, 6 friendlies can get us a better view of them all.

Ezenwa
Ajiboye
Uzoho
Akpeyi
Alampasu

These 5 should be tested during the friendlies.

Infact Aiyenugba should also be tried IMO.
From these 6 names, I know about 2 who are very good with stopping PKs.

(AJIBOYE AND AIYENUGBA)

for height :

Uzoho and Alampasu

For positioning:

Uzoho, Aiyenugba and Ajiboye

For confidence:

Ezenwa, Aiyenugba, Uzoho and Ajiboye

I believe it shouldn't be that hard to find 3 good keepers from these 6 options.

forgiveness:


Now, let me address your emotional rant.




Who are my preferred strikers in that @bolded?

Didn’t you see me place Iheanacho ahead of Kayode?

You are slow.


Was I not rubbishing Kayode for Iheanacho in that @bolded?

Where were you then?

This was even when he was banging in goals left right and center in Austrian league for the second season. Despite that I rubbished Kayode. Why?

Because I rated Iheanacho and others in better leagues than Kayode in the Austrian league.

Not all are sentimental and blind supporters like yourself.

I regard merit above sentiment. EOD




Is the @bolded tribalism or nepotism?

Is the @bolded not rubbishing? Why you or others no cry for Kayode when I dey rubbish am? Oh! Em no get immunity while Iheanacho has immunity, ba?

I support players based on merit and not on tribal connection, Mr man.

Next time check your facts right before spewing gibberish.

Ignorance is not an excuse, Mr I know.

And I am supposed to counter your long response abi? Its here for all to see. 2 people cannot miss out on a lie. If the person lying doesnt know he is lying, whoever he is lying to knows. Enjoy your roll and welcome back

Fixed...


The five Goalie names (Uzoho, Alampasu, Ezenwa, Ajiboye, Akpeyi) have all been invited by Rohr himself at various stages of our qualifying campaign in 2017 and 2016 so it is nothing new to see their names flying around the thread. And of these five, only four are truly in contention. Akpeyi is not going to he in Russia I believe.
But now you bring in Aiyenugba?? Sorry man... it is certainly...

No need "fixing" my opinion, it's disrespectful, you could have quoted me and stated your opinion too. don't cancel my comment next time bro. not cool.

Thanks

Having said that, Ajiboye was never mentioned by Rohr, but we can now see how he has proven himself, same should be thought for any other goal keeper including Aiyenugba.

Like i said, its my opinion, if the coach wants the best for the back, he should review his goal keeping stand again and should please do away with Alloy Agu, that man is incompetent!

If we go by your analysis on each Keeper,then Uzoho,Ajiboye,Aiyenugba nick it but i doubt Aiyenugba cos he is not in Rohr's plan,remember Maduka too,so let's put our fingers crossed but for now Ezenwa,Uzoho and Ajiboye with his performance yesterday ahead but am seeing Alampasu breaking into the team if any of the trio failed to deliver.

tbaba1234:


Okafor will be invited

Now that is the sixth name I was looking for.. Maduka Okoye you mean right?

He could even be no.5 while we take out Akpeyi...

somehow:
I have said it on this thread that Ezenwa isn't the best in the league nor is he better than the other 2 on the bench, now we can all see what Ajiboye did.

May God bless Yemi Tela and may he continue resting in peace.

Ajiboye showed Bojan pepper.. the Spanish youth team hated him because he denied them series of goals!

ehm I don't know if you have been corrected but I am sure Ajiboye and Bojan never actually occupied one field at that U17

I quoted you... I stated my opinion... We fix people's opinions sometimes here in that manner so it is nothing new really Why getting so worked up over nothing?

And also, I showed you why your mentioning Aiyenugba is absurd. He is not in Rohr's plans. Finito. Thank you too Mr somehow.


P.S: Ajiboye have been invited by Rohr himself. #fact

Yea i know hes got plans for some goal keepers already. Uzoho has been his main concentration.

for me, i will go with Uzoho, Ajiboye and Ezenwa in that order but Uzoho needs to be tested more before he can be tagged as first choice.

I dont take pleasure in anyone cancelling out my comment, like i said its disrespectful, take correction and move on sir, you can do for others who dont see anything wrong with it but not my comment. thanks.

Well Akpeyi was also in his plans and invited before he got screwed over by himself, so what makes you think those he's picking has been confirmed? He invited Ajiboye but never used him, so what fact does that display?

for now, nothing is confirmed when it comes to the GK position.

HBD chief. best wishes!

You definitely are somehow... getting worked up over nothing... Lolll... It is okay...



Uhmmmmm, on the GK position, one thing is surely confirmed mister. Dele Aiyenugba is not Russia-bound and not even in the picture. EOD. Now move on from that and let's stick to "reason" here.

Vanzekin is and was no where in talent close to Akpan Bassey, let alone Ajiboye. I wonder why you are bringing him into the picture.

should I run you through a long list of Gks who showed top class promise at the U17 but left much to be desired later on? Chrisantus was groomed abroad, what happened to him? Akinsola was also great then, whatever happened to him.

What is even the meaning of grooming to you? I said Ajiboye has been groomed by the NPFL and yes he has, he has been posting consistent performances in the NPFL, that means the coaches have noticed his progress. Ok Alampasu that is also another talent where is he? Third choice is a club I don't even know, wouldn't he be better off in the NPFL developing himself? Enyeama was developed in the NPFL with little or no national team experience and he only got his chance because we had a dearth of good Gks, such a situation does not occur all the time. Like I said, Ajiboye has been groomed by the NPFL. When we talk about world class keepers why do we not include Ajiboy? Because he plays for Plateau United and not because he cannot, currently, perform better than other world class keepers.


Meanwhile I still do not understand how I went over the line with De Gea, do you even know where he started his career?

somehow:


Yea i know hes got plans for some goal keepers already. Uzoho has been his main concentration.

for me, i will go with Uzoho, Ajiboye and Ezenwa in that order but Uzoho needs to be tested more before he can be tagged as first choice.

I don't see Uzoho beating Ajiboye with what i saw yesterday but Uzoho's height is tempting even Alampasu too,so likely Rohr go for Uzoho.

HZwriters:


Well done Sir, it's a great day in the history of Nigeria football, congratulations to CHAN team and to us fans, We will keep soaring higher...Cheers

well the CHAN team has really surpassed my expectations, i didnt expect them to go this far, but what more can i ask for, a place in the final.

But then i am not impressed with the team's overall play, i think coach salisu have not done a good job to this team and i wondered how some players made the team..okpotu as far as i am concerned is not a striker, he can pass for a sumo wrestler, wondered why the coach took an injured eneji to the tournament dropping sikiru and eduwo.

the only high point in this team is the goalkeeping department, so impressed with the goalkeepers, especially ajiboy he reminds me of myself during my heydays

Rohr loves height so his number 1 likely to be tall o.
